where to place the blame.

of great injustice on the part cf Representa
tive N.UI1 i deny us a board comofced of
men who saw service on the field. We are
not even allowed one man on the board, and
at a result nearly all who are examined by
tlie .Somerset board have to fro elsewhere to

the nifrii who are rejucte 1 go elsewhere, and
a.'- ra-iied pensions. Why tins till)!? at the
soldier? Why not give Turn a respectable
recognition in the adjustment of a pension
for his shattered health and honorable

We are coming around next fall if not

TwLrTv Soldiers.
Another Snaka Scotched.
From the Meyersdale t'omruereial.
An infamous article, as misleading as it is
infamous, apjiearfd ill tbe Somerset Stmdard
last wees, under the guise of a communica
tion, but bearing in its every utterance and
line tbe well known Sinnlard trade mark.
We give it in full :
These are grave charges. Let os examine
the solid facts in the matter, and sec if the
"Twenty Soldiers'' are not bcinu made to
muster at a mugwump funeral, by a militia
otlicer.
The evident and only intention is to in
jure Congressman Scull. When be was
elected he found the Pension Hoard com
posed of Doctors Hrubaker, Kimmel and
Patterson. How tbey were appointed is
none of our business, as the Democrats ruled
tlie roast then. Dr. Patterson resigned in
the course of time and Congressman Scull
recommended Dr. J. K. Miller, of Berlin, an
old soldier and a Grand Army man, to the
vacancy. Dr. Brubnker died and Dr. Covode
of Jenner, probably tbe oldest and certainly
one of the most eminent physicians in the
county, was rccomtm tided. Dr. Miller died
and Dr. W. II. Gardner of New Centreville,
who enlisted at Id years of age, served some
time in a company of which Captain W. M.
Sell rock now business manager of the Stand
on!, was 'Jnd Lieutenant, (Company K. oth
Pa ,1 and afterward served to the cloc of the
war, was recommended and is now a mem
ber of tbs Board. So instead ol tbe fai-ts
being as recited in tbe S'.-mdird. tbe truth is
Congressman Scu'l out of the three apoitit
incnts he has recommended, two were old
soldiers.
It is '.ews to the county that the Hoard
was or is in such bad odor. : tbe other
hand it has stood exceptionally well, and
applicants f ir pen- ion have been iNtnt be
fore it for examination from Cambria West
moreland. Bedford county. Pa . and Garrett
county, thus showing how highly its char
acter is eMretiied at S ii-ibingiou.
Hut tbe most inftin.ius a-tect of the
cbar-e i revealed by reading between the
liu -s. That is tb attack on IkKtors Bru
bnker ai.l Miller, who wr in office .w.g
enoiiph to draw the lire of these "Twenty
S i l.crs" wb ) pn-u:iub!y c i'ild n it 1
j isi.ee liefore the Board. These men are
d-a land cannot defend themselves. Jt is
comparatively safe work then for these
"Tei.;y Soldiers" to attack their reputa
tions, to phoul like d into their graves to
show the corruption of thisc men while in
ot'.bf . Is there a e;ti?.-n o: S merset couti
ty who knew either of the d.'ad doctors or
the re;ired memb.r, Dr. Pailerson, who will
believe that they would not accord justice to
any claimant? We trow rot. Who arc
these "Twenty P V.J'ers" whose Eternity tbe
St-utd'trd vouches for? Hot us have their
names ; let tbtir comrades read and know
who these braves are who thus assail dead
men's reputations and malign the honora
ble military character of a comrade gone be
fore. We want to know, and every soldier
in the county wants to know them, and
knowing them, to shun thcru.
We find no fault in the friwtard assailing
Congressman Scull. It was created for that
purpose.
It is its sole mission in life, and
lib that wrested from it, it would die. That
it must descend to such ba-e attacks on dead
men's reputations in order to assail its ene
my is proof positive that there U little in
the otlic.ial career or conduct of Congressman
Scull to assail. This the people Know, and
rcjeet and cktecm him aocordingly. Hut,
as a fcohiier, we, in common with our com
rades, condemn this false u-e of the honored
mantle of the soldier from . beneath which
to stab an enemy, or blacken dtu4 meu'a
reputations.
The followir.gcommunication in reply to
tbe slanderous at'ack on tbe Board of Pen
sion KiarniiierB for thia county, in Gen. Wm.

too late for publication in last week's Hsa-

nant and false assault ujion tbe Board of
Pension Surgeons in this county, wherein
it is charged that the soldiers "are not even
allowed one man on the Hoard, and as a
result nearly all who are examined by the
Somerset H)&rd have to p elsewhere to get
justice done. A very large proportion of
tbe men who are rejected go elsewhere and
tre granted ensions." .This short sentence
lias lie piled upon lie, api slander heated
uK.n slander, assaulting the rrocaI integ
rity and professional elanding o! three of
our best known physicians.
Who are tbe gentlemen thus outrageously
villitied? Dr. Kimmel has served accepta
bly on this board for four years, received his
appointment through tbe influence ofGen
erai C:I'rotb, and until this time no man
dared to assail bis professional character.
Dr. Covode was the friend and co-laborer for
Dearly forty years of i be lamented Dr. Brti
buker and of Dr. P,. S. Patterson, an is
held in as high esteem jrsona'dy and pro-f,-sional!y
throughout the county. Dr.
Gardner was a sallant soldier of tbe late
war. Ha enlisted when but sixteen years of
age and during part of his term of enlist
ment served as a private in Company K. 5:h
Kegiment Pa., Heavy Artillery, of which
company Wm. M. Schrock, managing editor
of the "personal organ," was Jnd Lieutenant.
He succeeds on the Board another brave
soldier and eminent pbxaieian, Dr. J. K.
Miller, who's sudden deaih is mourned
ty hosts of loving friends. Surely Mr.ScuM
can taVe tbe responsibility of procuring ap
pointments like these, and the soldiers of
ITie county are to be congratulated that lltey
are n-ferrcl lo such men for txim.i.a'ion.
Tbe malignant falsehood that "a very ;rge
proNrtion of tbe men who are r.jtej po

traustin-nt as it U untrue. Any one having
knowledge of these matters knows that a
soldier can only be examined ty pr irurinf

A Soldiers Fuienu
The slanderous assault referred to was
most likely written by a soldier of the type
described in tbe following item which we
find in a recent issue of the Johnstown Tri
bune. Somerset's Hero.
From the Philadelphia Bulletin.
General William II. Koontz, of Somerset,
Pa., accompanied by hi9 wife, is a guest of
Ihetiirard House. The (ieneral gained bis
title by gallant conduct in hard-fought bit
ties in the lute wr
In order that our readers may fully un
derstand the position of these unscrupulous
tiauucers of respectable citizens, we publish
herewith tbe miserable, shambling, coward
ly back -down of the personal orgau of Gen.
Wm. H. Koontz, wbo.se sole mission is to
villify and slander all Republicans (soldiers
included,) w'uo adhere to the party organiza
tion, and who wil! not dance as tbe doughty
General pipes.
From On. Wra. II. KoonU's personal organ of
Msy liiiu.
" There has been some talk lately to the
e.Tect that the present Pension Examining
Board for this county is composed of physi
cians who were not soldiers. A communi
cation signed "Twenty Soldiers " was print
ed iu this paper last week, in which such a
charge was made. We deemed it prudent to
print this communication in order that the
charge might be properly refuted, and the
matter thus permanently rettled. A reply
wili be found in this issue by a soldier who
was a member of the same company in
which Dr. V. H. Gardner a member of the
Pension Board served. This is all-sullicient
proof that the ehargoi is erroneous, and
should terminate ail uibbiing.
; We have endeavored to learn of any
dtaatisfaetiou that may exist, and find
that there is but little, if any. The other
members of the board Dr. II. S. Kim
mel, of tin's place, mid Dr. Covode, of
Jenner X Roads as well as Dr. Gardner
are men who stand high in their profession
in this county and whose fitness lor the
position tbey occupy will not be questioned.
we tiave nearo no compiaini oi uniairnesa
or discrimination and believe in view of tbe
high character ol tbe board there can be
none.
The New Johnstown.
The old familiar Johnstown is not only a
new place by virtue of changing from sev
eral boroughs into a third-class city, but is
new in the marvelous changes in its busi
ness character. The survivors of the disas
trous flood have had fresh, invigorating,
enterprising blood infused into their veins.
Their old Hip Van Winkle, dozing habits
have change.! into tbe gritty, pushing,
methods that have caused towns and cities
to sprifg up iu a few months out in some of
our western territories.
Tbe low ceiling and dingy stores have
been replaced by commodious and airy
business bouues ; and new goods have sujier
staled the mouldy old stocks that were car
ried away by the tlood ; which has resulted
in making the place one among the most
desirable for purchasing and trading pur
poses in the Slute.
Vndcr the head of Johnstown business
houses our readers will notice a list of first
class establishments that offer rare facilities
to all Somerset county purchasers. To
briefly particularii, read F. M. Hay & Son's
advertisement, which tells you all alout
the thousand and one articles that all fam
ilies need. The list is nofconly a long one,
but a useful one for reference. Anything
and everything in the tin, stove and culinary
line can be had at their salesrooms. New
patterns, new designs in a word, ail the
late improvements in Jan., kettles, boiiers.
refrigerators, etc., etc., are constantly on sale
at competing prices.
The unique advertiser and enterprising
carpet man, James S. Asbbridge, informs
the general public that lie is the carpet man.
Resides his large stock of ingrain and Brus
sels carpets and fancy rugs, his dozen or so
of loom's are turning out the best rag carpeta
In the market. He is a hustler from 'way back.
Do you need good liquors, choice wines
A, No. 1 whisky, brandy or gin for your
"stomach's sake," then look at what Peter
Fisher, a former Somerset county resident,
has to say in bis advertisement.
In one of tbe most beautiful rooms of the
cltv Scott Dibert, tbe reliable boot and shoe
man, says be can be interviewed by all in
need of foot wear to tbe advantage of their
pockets. Wc don't doubt it.
Over on the Kernville side, pretty w ell up
on Main street, A. W. Hlaucb, in bis neat,
newly constructed store, can be found, aud
savs be wants his Somerset county friends
to call and see what rare chances for bar-
eains he is offering in tbe several lines of
goods he is handling.
A little lower down ou the same stnt-t,
the firm of Fockler tt I.everyood. so favor
ably known to ail Somerset county people,
is dealing in general merchandise, the same
as before the flood, only a little more so,
Prices as low as the lowest.
At tbe south end of the bridge, P. A. Co-
baugh's large business house looks none tbe
worse for the flood's ravages. Inside, he is
stocked up with all kinds of goods, which
customers will hnj to compare lavoraoiy
w ith tbe bst and cheajiest in the market
His free f-ed accommodations commend
themselves.
Going hack to the Johnstown side, ScliotT,
on Clinton street before the Hood, tells yoa
he is on the public square, opposite Alma
Hall, where he has staple and fancy goods
in all styles and grades, which are otlered
on lowest cash terms.
At the old stand, Wm. B. Dibert has a full
and splendid supply of everything kept in
a first class hardware store. Will's push
and business oualitiea aro jiviut; hitu a rep- j
utation moiig tbe Ueiit business classes, i
Give him a call by ail means.
The Mammoth store (and in this respect
it is really all that tbe name implies) of
John Thomas A Son but why tell Semeret
county people anything about John Tuomas
and his satisfactory way of doing business ?
Well, we'll not try, but simply say his mod
est advertisement only tells a little of what
the new firm has on band. When you go
through the various departments from A to
E you will say, "the.half was pot told you.
Charles Griffith is popularly located, and
presides over one of the most popular drug
Stores in the country. In tbe success with
u-hich he is meeting he is a worthy successor
of Col. Frazer, one of the most successful
druggists of the State, Charley al ways keeps
abreast, and a lefU ahead of the times, in
his lame and tomplote stock of everything
to be found in a first-class drug house.
Our Somerset county yeople will do well
by rememberitiil that John Stenger is in his
new and greatly improve,! room, with one
of the most extensive lines of fine and fancy
dry goods aud notions ever taken to Johns
town. Willi bis Increased facilities for do
ing business and a finer stock than ever.be
means business from the ground floor np.
Nothing finer or on a more extensive
wile in ladies' hats and bonnets, fine drrss
gixxls, ehildren's plain and kricy dresses,
gloves and liosjory can be seen anywhere
than Mrs. Mildren is now showing in the
large and attrai-tive rooms she now occupies.
The latest styles and lowest prices are her
fcia!ties. As manager for the large im
porters in Philadelphia, the Cttsttr Sous, she
is meeting with phenomenal success.
Pretty well up on Bedford street, in a new
locality for his businsss, our former young
citizen, ll. B. Heffley, has opened a new
drug store. It is a bcauiy in its way, and
clrnck fc.1! of drugs, toilet articles, etc., which
ha is j utlir.a out at a rate that gladdens
him in looking at his daily sales. Physicians
should not forjret thst surgical instruments
Is one of Lis specialties. Harry graduated
recently from one of the best Pharmacies ia
tbe country.
The only change in the Company Store
(Wood, Morrell fc Co., L'ld.) is in the im
proved rooms of the large building and a
more complete line of general merchandise.
All the departments, grocery, boot and shoe,
hats, dry goods, carpet and other sections,
are run ou the principle of tbe greatest good
to the grtatest number of people. Tbe firm
la too well knowrf to require commendation.
Notice.
In eon'fquer.co of lameness, resulting
from a broken knee, it la impossible, for me
to make a canvss as a candidate for tbe As

Pennsylvania railroad engineers are mak
