The reports of Somerset's National Banks make a very gratifying showing to botb stockholders and customers. The figures show that they are both prepared to meet any demand that may be made for cash.

JIN IKJUKTIOH GRANTED, Mayor Weifley and Town Council Restrained by the Court From Letting the Contract for Water Works and From Issu ing Bonds for the Same. Judge Biesecker Makes the Decree and is Sustained by Judge Longeneck er. Prospective Contractors Pack Their Grips and Take the First Train for Home. An Earn est Fght by Property Holders to Prevent Their Homes From Be ing Mortgaged. A Utile ovi-r two years ago the question of j pladi g a bunded drbt U iJ3,3tJ o:i the B.ir ough of Some-sst, in erecmig a system of water woik-i, was tubn.itted to tbe voters of the BjpcijTh at an lc:iou called t-j-ecially for that pu'p-.ss. At that lime it was gen erally tu;pjid that a water supply fcy gravitation could be secured, although those wbo Lad carvfuiiy looked into tbe matter knew that this oaid n.'t b; dme. The enction was quite an exciting one, a major ity of tbe property owners being arrayed against the proposition wbile on the other side Were arrayed a number of free bolders supported t-y tbe aim st solid v.!s of the non-taxablts. Water cirried the dav bv a mtjority ef votes. From that day to this. at inienuls, engineers Lave been employed in a fruitless endeavor to Sud a source f.-oro Lich a water supply could be obtained by gravitation. In this manner much money bas been frittered away and streets aud cross iugs badly in need of repairs have been nrg lected, because of lack of funds in the her casu treasury. When finally cot vmcd that, owing tt its aMi'.udi, Sjni'srsjt cjuld nt-t be tapp'.Ud with water by gravitation, the members of Town Council d-ci ltd to tdopt heroic measures and the "pumping ystera" was resorted to. Despite ail le monstrance from tax payers they purchased a piece of ground, bad two holes bored in the ground to a depth of FX) feet each, con tracted for two t(f expeiuUt "pumps," and were about to let the c jatract for building a reservoir, piping the town, tic, when a uum ber of tax-payers served a writ i notice on tbe Borough Treasurer not to i ? out any more money iu this direct ion, unless at Lis own peril. A weak attempt was made by several if our local contemporaries tj hold tbe gentlemen who signed this paper up to public ridicule, and -their action was most tlipiantly spoken of by these same brilliant writers. The time for the opening of the bid3 for tbe proposed contract was set for 7:13 o'clock Saturday evening, January G:h.

To tKe Hvi'oraUt.the Jmijei of raid Cjurt: Your Orators complain and say . That, I. Tbey are cilii?c of the Unite.! States, residing at Somerset, in said County of Som erset. II. that tbe said Wm. H.

IV. That in taid " Election No ice "the iudebledcc-s of the borough was not set form as required by the Act of Assembly, but iu aaid " Election Notice'" it was errone LUsiy stated thai said indebtedness was "nothing." V. Tnat the election le'd under said " Election Notice'' was illegal. VI. That at said election a large number of persons voted to " increase tbe debt" of said borough "lor tbe purpose of construct ing a evsietn of water works and of provid ing a supply of water for the nse of 8 jmer ei borough and its inhabitants'' who were not legally eut.tied to vote at said election lor the reason that they had not reided in the borough tbe length of time required to entitle tbem to vote on municipal affairs ; bad not paid a borough tax : bad not paid a county cr s'ale tax ; who were non resi dents; who were non registered and who did not file requisite proofs. VII Tbat no return f said elaction was made to tbe Clerk of Jjaner Sessions and by him laid fx tore theduitand the votes counted by the Court as is required by tbe Act of Assembly.

IX. That the wells now drilled will noi supply tbe borough and its inhabitants with water. X. The water pumped from tbe wells now drilled is not of theqoality or quantity required to supply tbe inhabitants of the borough with pure or healthy water. XI. That if ihe pumping of tbe present drilled wells to supply tbe borough witb wa ter is a'lowed then the wells of me west end of town will be drained of their supply of water and the pn.perty owners of tbat sec tion will surfer irreparable loss. XII- Ti at the cost to the borough to sap r.lv water bv tbe " pumping system" from drilled wells w:!l be burdensome to tbe tax payers and will be cruelly unjust to that portion of the taxpayers wbo will receive no benefit. 1'owr Orator there fort pray: 1.

Tbe above petition represents a large por tion of tbe assessed valuation of the town. The signatures of many more tax -payers could have been obtained bad the opportu nity of signing been afforded them. A sup plemental petition will doubtless be prepar ed when ail will have an opportunity of signing. The gentlemen who are pressing this mat ter are not doing so from selfish motives, as some of our contemporaries Lave iulimated. They arecitisens and property owners, and, if they ran prevent it by legal means they will not stand idly by and see a burdensome tax imposed npo n themselves and fellow citizens in an absurd attempt to procure a sulficient supply of healthful water from two botes in tbe ground, each IU".' feet deep, drilled in a basin into which the village grave yard drains. Still at the Seat of War. Telegrams are flying thick and fast be tween Captain Henry F. Picking, in com mand of the U. 8. rlect in the harbor of Rio, Brazil, and the Nivy Department. Tbe De partment refuses lo make any of Captain Picking's commtiuii-atioos public and from this il is taken that the war between the Bra zilian government and tbe insurgents is fast approaching a crisis. Captain Picking had hoped to be relieved about Jan. 1st, from duty aboard ship, be Laving already served two years at sea, the period specified by the regulations, but he has so successfully dis charge.! his duties pertaining to U.

An Unwelcome Guest. An unwelcome guest has appeared in the Northwest which has caused genuine alarm among theagriculturists. It is known as the Siberian thistle and is tongb, prickly, poisonous, crowds out of space all native growth, spreads in every d rection, matures rapidly and s.-atters its seeds broi JcaU. It is believed lo have been brought into the country by Russian refugees. This vile weed Las established ilself in several of the northwestern state Wis consin, Iowa, Minnesota, Nebraska and the Dakotas. Il is a terror to the firmer and a movement is on foot to ask Congress for a millon-doilar appropriation to aid in ils extermination. It is difficult to see Low a war against this vegetable terror could be made effective even with this amount of money as a basis of operations. Oae thing is certain, there should be measures taken to prevent the introduction of Buch pests into the country. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN ! And It Will Concern Everybody Who Wants to Buy UooOs Cheap.

Tbe matter of swearing or affirming in legal business seems to be claiming its share of attention at this time and is a subject cf general interest. The custom of affirming, which originated among the Satiety of Friends, and is particularly strong in the country near Philadelphia, is gradually gaining ground, and one of the leaiin g members recently expressed it as his opinion tba1 it would not be long before swearing on the Bible would be altogether done sway witb. In every jury drawn there are some men wbo swear, wbile others affirm.

Somerset County Farmers' Institute has become a permanent institution and it bas steadily grown in popular favor tince its organization five years ago. The attendance bas increased from s half hundred persons who were present at ti t fust Institute until to-day tbf re is not a ball in the county large enocgh to accommodate all cf the people who desite to attend. The Conrt room was comfortably filled at 10.30 o'clock yeattrday morning with farmers farmers' wives sod farmers' daughters, from s.l sections of tbe county and long before ti hour for adjournment arrived every availa ble seat was occupied and a large number of persons were compelled lo stand. An organization was effected by the elec tion of P. K. Moore, of Mtddleoreek town ship, chairman ; Jere Miller, of Somerset township, secretary, and W. II. Miller, of Quemahnning township, query nian.-ger. The " Highland Grange Cboir," composed of a number f young ladies and gentlemen from Husband, Somerset township, rendered a selection, after which Senator Crilchiield introduced the gentlemen present from dis tant parts of the Slate, who came prepared to give tbe bee fit of their experience on the farm and to exchange views in regard to riruiture and k indred topics with Somerset county farmers. Secretary Edge, of the State Board of Agriculture, was first presented. The Secretary bas attended previous sessious of Somerset county Farmers' Institutes, and was accorded a cordial reception. Mr. A.C. Sci.cecn, of Lackawanna county, who will be reruemoered by ail wbo attended Institute last year, was next presented, and before ad journment favored the audience witb one of his inimitable songs. Hon. John A. Wood ward, ofCcntre county ; Hon. J. D Hicks, of Altoor.a, Hon. George Hop ewood, of Fay ette county, and Hon. Geo. flay born, of Dela ware county, were next presented. All of tbe gentlemen made s few felicitous remarks upon being introduced to the audience. "Farmers' Organization aod What they Have Accomplished," was the subject of a paper read by Henry J. Hodman, of Hus band. Mr. Hoffman urged tbe necessity of farmers' organizations, snd followed it up th a concise statement of the work accom plished by the Grange since ils organization by a half dozen determined men in Washing ton City many years ago. The subject was then taken npand discus sion by the members of the institute. Sec retary Edge said organization among farm ers is a good thing and should be encourag ed, but ae desired to caution tbe members of organizations against tbe wrong us of tbs power in tbeir hands. He referred to grang ers petitioning to the legislature in behalf of reduced taxation and at the same time petitioning to have their tales increased. Other speakers followed in the same strain. At the afternoon session the Court room was crowded to its full capacity Many per sons were unabls to guin admission to the room and were compelled to return to their homes. Tbe features of this session were Itlt on Commercial Fertilizes " by Sec- retr.ry EJge, and a paper on " Keeping Boys On the Tarm" by Dallas J. F.ke, of Elk LUk. A Rare Chance.

The law requiring assessors to make semi annual returns of the deaths and births in their respective districts went into eilect June 1, lSi'3. The reports are now being s'owly filed ia the Register and Recorder's dike. At the preeent time only Ho districts have been heard from, notwithstanding the assessors were no;! fie-i on the passage of the law and of the time whrn it went into effect. The assessors do not se-ni to consid er it an imperative duty and are taking their own time to prepare their reports. The districts already in are as follows : BICTUS. I'EITBS. Jennertown Borough, I Casselnian Borough, 4 New Centreville Borough, 4 Larimer, 14 Lincoln, -) Southampton, 4 Greenville, 1 Ole, 5 Stonycrcik, C'J Fai rbope, t Middlecreek, 9 Northampton, 11 tjoemaboning, 27 Confluence Borough, 9 Weilersburg I! .-rough, 4 Allegheny, 23 Milford, 17 Ursina, 3 Stoyestown Borough, 2 Berlin Borough, 8 Jefferson, 13 Benson Borough, 7 Somerset Borough, CI Salisbury Borough, 14 Somerset, &) Jenner, 1: 1 10 0 1 !S C 12 Total. 30.' 131 Excess of births 171. Tbe facts given in reiraru to deaths ai t as follows: Name, color, sex, age, name cf father, name of mother, married or single, place of birth, occupation, date of death, place of deatb, caise of death, duration of last sickness, place of interment, dale of in terment, date of record. Ia regard to births, they are as follows : Name, sex, color, name of father, name of mother, residence, occupation of father, date of birth, date of record. The columns used for recording this data are large, the sheets being abozt 22x1.3 inches. The assessors in many instances Lave been careless in preparing tbeir reports. They have neglected to put in facts according to instructions, because tbey Lave not deemed it important. In the lists of deaths, many assessors have not put in tbe names of tbe parents of the deceased, especially if tbey were old persons. A common error, too, was the failure to give the father's name in the case of illegitimates. The data is im port nt as a matter of record and the offi cials are expected to exercise the greatest care in its collection. - Buy yoar ear orn from Mahlon Schrock S car load just received.
