Co2rolh and Fisher Both Want to
Same a Postmaster for the
44 Metropolis-"
Mr. WUiara Sufall's eommwi ti as pc
maxter at Meyer-dale expires April 1st. Ten
full-fiedgrd candidates are in tbe field for bis
omciaisboes. As the m slier standi at pres
ent it ia the field against Ym. H. Hay. Hay
is the representative oi the Fisher wing of
the Democratic partj in tbe south of tbe
county and he is earnestly backed by tbe
leaders of that element ia Somerset. It ia
understood too. tbat Mr. Harrity and tbe
other nM-moera of the PaUisoa political
household have endorsed the petition of Mr.
Hay, and they look upon bim as a sure win
ner. But it is anything to beat Hay with
tbe " old guard " of 'he Democracy and they
bae succwded in nailing the field agiinst
bin. Ex -Senator Fred Grof htada the list ol
the oppueitioo. He bas taken aa active part
in lecai politics for tbe past forty years and
is one of the few members of bis party who
baa ever been elected to s legislative oiEce
from this district. Grof and General Cof
froth, the leader of the aati-Hsrrity forces,
hare always had a copper-riveted comiact in
reganl to tbe di-4ribuuoo of the spoils and
they will make the figat of their lives to
control the Meyersdaie app-jtatmeat, since
it wiil be tbe first federal appointment to be
made in this district, and wiil decide who is
to say " thumbs np " to tbe office seekers.
General CuflVotb and Adlia served togeth
er as members of Congress and.an intimate
friendship was engendered between them at
that lime that bas never lapsed. Only re
cently when the Vice President pasted
through this county oa a special train bead
ed tor the inauguration, be spoke to a crowd
assembled at Rock wood station, and, among
other things, asked to be remembered to his
"old friend General Co (Troth, for whom I en
tertain the warmest fceltcg."' The CotTroth
Democrats rely on the Vice President's fa
miliarity with the beadsman's office and
his friendship for their chief, to exert bis
influence ia behalf 0.' Grof. In ca Grof is
knocked out, iheCoffroth forces will concen
trate their strength on Wm. H. Dill, a son of
"Andy 'D.ll, Marshall of the Eastern Dis
trict of 1'ennsy Ivan'ia under Cleveland's for
mer administration. Dill, it is said. Las se
cured the endorsement of Col. McCiure, of
the Philadelphia Tuntt ; Col. Siuirerly, cf
tbe rh.ladelp'uia Record, and a number of
other prominent Democratic leaders of the
East, who were friends of bis tuber. Dill
bas only been a resident of Meyers-Ule for a
few years and bas never exerted much influ
ence in party politics, and it is not believed
that be will be rewarded with one of the bet
local plums simply because be is a son of a
lste eminent Democrat. J. M. Oats will be
next taken up in case both Grof and Dill are
turned down. Mr. Oats is an active youcg
Iemocrat and would make a good postmas
ter, but be bas been identified with tbe Cof
froth wing of the Democratic party too long
to secure anything from the gentlemen who
sre eugineenng Pennsylvania politics under
the new administration. Aud so on until
the ninth maa 00 the list bas had a turn at
the political fortune wbeeL A united effort
wiil l-e made in behalf of each in ca-ie. his
predecessor on the list is aiiu.e to secure
tbe appointment. Satursily more ,r les
kicking is being done by tbe applicants who
find their names at the foot of the list, but
all are so anxious to encompass tbe defeat of
ex Chairman Fisher, who is the representa
tive of Harrity in this county, that they will
submit to almost any humiliation in order
to do so.
CL air maa of the Democratic County Com
mittee, Frank Johns, a rattling good fellow,
a wealthy lumber dealer and a shrewd poli
tician, is reported to have been in Washing
ton for tbe past few days, endeavoring to se
cure the a'd of sjme of the State leaders in
order to control the Meyersiale appoint
ment. Johns is a resident oi Meyersdaie
and h't action as Chairman of tbe County
Commute has been severely criticised by tbe
Fisher element of bis party. He bas staked
bis re-election as Chairman on tbe outcome
of the Veyersdaie post oinoe fLtht and will
leave nothing undone to accomplish Lis
end. He does not care particularly who re
ceives tbe appointment, only so Hsy dix s
not.
Attorney A. L G. Hay, a son of Wm. H.
Hsy, the Fisher candidate for tbe Meyers
dale office, returned from Harrisburg Satur
day. He saw both Harrity and Hensei.acd
the result of bis interview with them was
evidently very satisfactory, si ace be Las an
nounced that bis father will be the next
postmaster of Meyersdaie. Fisher says tie
same thing ; or in event Hay is knocked out
Fisher claims tbat be will name the man.
It is reported hereto-day tbat charges af
fecting the character of at least one and pos
sibly three of the candidates for the Meyers
dale postmastership, have been filed with
the Postmaster General.

It is a question decided for the first time

there are a great number of derisions con

CLEAN UP THE TOWN.
Ma. Epitor: With your pirmissioa I
des re to get in a word or so respecting the
condition of a certain public lot, and at least
one thoroughfare. A'J the town papers
hive bad something o say in a general way
ia reference to putting the town into a re
spectable summer dress so tbat visitors will
nut mockingly say in psssing aloog our
streets and th rough our alleys, wbat an eye
sore this or that property ia. or wbat a hor
rid stench comes from a certain alley aa
alley tbat reeks with old soiled paper, decay
ing vegetables and fruit, and other filthy re
fuse swept from stores and warehouses.
Were it not for tbe serious side of the
case, the resolutions now before Council
colling citizens to clean up, would be as
amusing as a comic alaanac -tbe amuse
ment rrowing out of tbe tact that so Ur as
keeping borough property ia anytbiug like
a deceut condition ia concerned our oi3 ials
bave beeo about as useful as a half dozen
raeo made out of six rye straws and a lulls
buckwheat batter woald have been. Pre
cept without example counts for nothing.
Before tackling said resolutions, let our good
Bargess and members of Council set proper
ty holders aa example by cleaning up the
lot of which tbey are the custodians.
Tbe borough lot, as it ia called (oa tbe
rear end of which is a brick nondescript
building noted for iu filthiness), fronting 00
Main street, is by all odds the dirtiest, mean
est looking, worst kept piece of property
within the town limits. Can it be possible
that our Burgess, whose eyesight is good,
and the bolthng over members of Council,
whose vision is not dimmed, have failed to
notice the shameful, disgraceful appearance
of this town lot? It has been aa eve-sor
to every lover of decency and cleanliness.
Xo self-respecting citizeu does not blush
with shame in being compelled to say to a
stranger that the repulsive looking lot be
longs to tbe borough.
Last summer its adornments were old tin
cans, broken glass jars, vestiges of crocks,
rusty old stoves, thistles and weeds by the
many hundreds. Protests, complaints and
anathemas fiually led to the munificent ex
penditure of a dollar or so to have the tops
of the rank growth of weeds and thistles cut
Oil; thus leaving the picturesque stubbles a
foot long to contribute to the adornment of
the accumulated rubbish.
During tbe patt winter tbe sidewalk ia
front of this lot wai about the only one on
Main street from whica saow was never
shoveled.
A few years ago a cheap wooden fence was
put up facing Main street, but never a drop
of paint did it see. Though pailiag after
pailing was pulled off or fell otf, not one of
them was ever replaced. Tbe gate bas long
ceased to swing on its cheap, flimsy binges,
and uow ieaus quietly against tbe fence, va
rying iu leaning position by occasionally
spreading itself flat on tbe sidewalk.
For the borough authorities to call on
people to clean up their lots, that are per
fect paradises compared with this dirty, fil
thy, indecent towa prorty, is the climax
of impudence, stupidity, presumption and
arrogance. If the town is too poor to take
care of the property, or tbe authorities too
induTerenl to the reputation of the place, let
it be sold at once, or given away to some
one who would have the good name of the
town surBcieiitiy st heart to put it in some
kind of decent shape. As it is. and as it bas
been, it is tbe most oifrnsive, repulsive, dis
graoeful, shameful ?p t ia tbe town. Out
utoa theorbcial balderdash talk of cleaning
up streets, cellars, cesspools, water courses,
A ; as long as this foul blot remains.
Before wrestling with the peop.e's dirt,
Messrs. Burge-s and Couacilmen, sweep the
filth from your olricial door. Even let Kim
berly continue to roll its slu gish water
along for the time being at least and do
something that is imperatively necessary,
and that will ad 1 to the good appearance
and dtcency of the borough.
Apropos ot the cleansing work, tbe hor
ridly filthy alley running from Main Cross
street past the two largest warehouses
in the town requires a passing no
tice. It is no exaggeration to say tnat this
all. y is, by long odos, the fi ithiest one to be
found within the borough lines ; that on a
warm summer day it reeks with corruption,
tbe stench of which is snoiigh to breed dis
ease and death. Think of lis location not
in any of the outskirts, but tight in tbe very
center of the town. Decayed vegetables of
all kinds, rotten fruit, such as apples, orang
es and bananas, mixed up. with pieces of
soiled paper, make it the hotbed of pollu
tion. Ine tilth of the two warehouses are
almost daily swept into it, without, so far
ai is publicly kaowa, a single protest of an
orticutl. What more right have these ware
house proprietors to sweep their otfals, piec
es of paper, broken boards sad barrels, iron
scraps, Ac, into this alley, than business
men have to litter our streets with noisome
stuff from their respective stores, oiBces and
groceries? A proper regard for the feelings,
comfort aad health of cilizjns and sojourn
ers, is suggestive of paining all such stuff as
named into barrels or boxes, to be haulel
out somewhere and either buried or burn
ed. Will tbe borough authorities quietly fold
their arms and permit this mammoth and
hideous evil to go on ? We shall see. To
content themselves by nosing around to
find some poor man's premises with a buck
et of ashes on it, or some widow's garden
with a handful of straw scattered on it, while
wading through fiitu shoe top deep ia the
most traveled section of town, will co long
er be tolerated by aa outraged community.

Another Good Sale.
Another sale of cjal lands was concluded
yesterday in Somerset county which will
bave an important bearing urm the devel
opments in that region. This was the trans
fer of a tract of 7Vl acres along the line of
tbe B. 4 0. Railroad, which was sold for s
cash figure atrzivpaiing $1 ;..).
Tbe lands in question were purchased by
John J. McDonnell. John t'el.and Lawrence
Symendeoger, cf Portage, Several years sgo,
and were purchased outright. Several offers
bsd recently been made on tbe coal, but tbe
gentlemen refused unless they disposed of
tneir interests outright, which they have
now done. The lands were purchased by
the Berwind White Coal Comptny, and tbe
money was pai 1 for them yesterday, the ad
vance over the purchase price netting s
Lan-!?orue profit.
This purchase by the Berwind White peo
ple indicates tbat tbey intend to make exten
sive developments in tbat region. These
lands lie close to tbe Holsopp'.e tracts, about
which there is scree dispute, a claim to bold
theta by agreement beiLg mt!u by tbe Ber
wind White Company, notwitbstsndinr tbe
fact that the Thomases of this city bsve paid
part on tbe Ian Is as heretofore noted. All
of this tract just sold lies along tbe B. it 0
both Border's station and Kauffman's sta
tion being located on tbe same.
Tbe demand for good coal in tbe Somerset
region seems to be growing. Good land and
locations are eagerly sought for, although
there is noticed a diminution of the rivalry
formerly existing, indicating that tbe specu
lators believed tbe prices were too high and
they will not boy freely unless tbey csa be
obtained at reasonable figures. Enough baa
been developed, however, to show that this
region wili before long become tbe scene of
activity somewhat similar to tbe operations
now going on in tbe north of this county

LARGE PROFITS MADE IN CASHED
GOODS.
Somerset One of the Best Sites In
the State for a Canning
Factory.
Why do not some of our local capitalists,
who are constantly seeking investments for
their surplus cash, erect a canning factory.
Xo business will bring better returns for the
money. Few counties ia Pennsylvania are
bettor adapted to growing certain varieties
of fruit and vegetables, and no county in tbe
State produces more or choicer varieties of
small and wild fruits than ours. It is not
necessary to remind the people of this vi
cinity tbat every season garden truck and
borne grow a fruit becomes s drug on the lo
cal market, and that hundreds of bushels of
botn are permitted to decay. Somerset county
is too remote for our farmers to compete
witb their brethern who dive close by tbe
city markets, aad it is time that tbey realize
this fact and put their goods into such shape
tbat lliey will compete with goods of a simi
lar character put up elsewhere.
In conneJhuo with this subject the follow
ing letter read before the Farmers' Institute
of Indiana county, Pa., will give an insight
into what is required aud the profits tbst
are to be made :
CaaDE. W. Va., Feb. H. l33.
" Dear Sir :
"In reply to your letter concerning our
system of establishing canning factories, I
submit the following details which I hope
will meet your approval. Ia the first place
your surrounding country must be an agri
cultural one. If so, I sru prepared to satis
fy your people there is nice money in the
manufacture of canned products, such as
peas, beans, corn, tomatoes, apples and all
fruits, our specialties being corn, tomatoes
and applts
" You will doubtless want to know wbat
price is paid tbe producer for bis garden
truck and fruit.
rates fid roa nan rRoDicrs.
" Aa average price for peas ia bulls is oO
cents per bushel, a fair yield being 100 bush
els to the sere. Beans in the pod are worth
a cent a pound an 1 an average yield per
acre U " buheis. Green corn in the husk
brings from $7 to i'J a ton according to the
season, and an acre of carefully cultivated
land should produce four tons. Tomatoes
on ordinary land should produce SoO bush
els to the acre, the average price for the last
three years being 3 cents jr bushel.
" Of course the yield of sppies cannot be
safely estimated, but a factory is safe in con
tracting for them at 00 cents a bushel, there
being no choice as to grade, the only require
ment being that they are souud when shak
en from the tree. Pumpkins and squashes
are worth to the canner from $3 to $1 a ton.
" All labor in tbe factory is done by piece
work. Any community adapted to this bus
intss should furuUh enough produce to
manufacture ti.'.M) cans daily. This would
employ from To to &5 bands.
IT BESETITS ALU
The business leaves a nice margin to ti e
manufacturers besides paying good prices to
tbe producers. Both are greativ benefitted.
If your people knew cf trie money in the
undertaking, and if the country ia adapted
to garden truck, there would not be any hes
itancy about establishing a plant. In many
instances the entire cost is covered in two
years. Can your people, the farmers espec
ially, engage in anything that will pay them
better?"'

HICKS' APRIL FORECAST.
A combination of causes conspire at tbe
opening, and during the entire month of
April, which are calculated to produce dis
turbances of maximum severity, and which
will overrun the limits of the s'orm periods
la their normal state. Nevertheless, the
most marked and dar.gerous s'orms will
center on and about tbe central dates of reg
ular storm periods. Tbe first period extends
from tbe CI to 'lib. We cauie the 3d, 4 h
and 5th , as danger centers. As we enter the
period it wiil grow very warm in westerly
parts, and heavy storms of thunder, ram,
bail and tornadoes will develop and travel
eastward, turning to snow and sleet in north
erly sections. Expect a general cold wave
to spread over tbe country as the storms
pass to the eastward, and prepare for frosts,
and coisiderable freezing northward, in the
intervening days and eights prior 10 about
the 3th and l')th Ou and l ut tuese dates
it will grow suddenly very warm, and re
actionary storms will appear in many parts
and with marked eueruy. Heavy hailstorms
are almost ture to result. Another dash cf
cool to cold weather will fail in behind
these disturbances, disappearing gradually
up to about the )t. Between the 1 f h and
17th the whole country will feel the effects
of s very warm wave, and storms of grat
violence are to be apprehended 00 and about
the 15th, lliih an t 17ib. The disturbances
frora the 1 i:h to li;h are apt to be prolong
ed by existing causes into the reactionary
storms due about the 21st and iii.
The 2otb is the central dsy of the last
period for the month, which period embraces
the 25th to ?Sth inclusive. During this
period it will grow very warm again, and
many beavy storms of rain, hail and thun
der will travel from west to east across our
continent. After tbe storms, look for cold
and frost. The month promises to end 'Very
cool.

Latest U. S. Gov't Report.
Dunning by Postal Card.
There is a very general impression among
merchants and others who are particularly
interested in tbesut ject, that it is a criminal
offense nailer Cuited States laws to mail a
dunning letter written oa a postal card. A
person ia this oeighborb -c4 wrote to tbe
First Assiauat Fos'masur General asking
for information, and received a reply giving
the decision of Judge Thayer. Dee. 14, 1359,
oa the wording of a pottol card that was
mailable and one tbat was not.
Tbe mailable one read : " Please call and
settle accouut, which is long past doe, and
for which onr collertor bas called several
times, and oblige." Tbe nn mailable one
reads: -You owe me $1 sO. We bave ca
bled several times for same. If not paid at
once, we shall place with our law agency for
collection."
The but sentence, it is stated, ruled out
tb is communication. Postal cards are not
mailable if they contain language of " a
threatening character," and it is a very seri
ous threat to tbe average man to tell bim
tbat jou are going to sue bim. There is DO
law, however, to prevent you from putting
an X oa your card to let your debtor under
stand that yon are really cross with him.

READERS OF THE HERALD
Cannot fail to appreciate the efforts of any firm who sells
goods for less money than yoa conld buy tie same a year
ago when the saving to tie buyer is the result of the en
terprise of the dealer.
This will be better understood when you learn that
yoa can bay as good a Chamber Suit for $16.00 now as
you could get a year ago for $20.00.
Thec suites are without equal ia the market, nothing
like them has ever been offered before at the price.
And this too with the fact that we deliver to your
nearest freight station.
When you see the suit you will concede that tha off? f
is better than you expected.
