13.00 FOR THE ROUND TRIP.
At 6 o'clock next Tuesday morning,
September loth, an Immense crowd of
enthusiastic Republican "Frosty Sons of
Thunder" w ill start on a pilgrimage to
Canton, w here they w ill tie received by
.Major William McKinley, the uext Pres
ident of the Vuited States, w ho w ill ad
dress them on the issues of the campaign,
admitted lo lie the most important since
the format ion of the government.
It will be a splendid opportunity to
listen to and grasp the hand of the fore
most American of the day. Every voter
in the county who favors the protection
of American ititbJslrieM, who lielieves in
maintaining National Honor ana credit,
who demands that a dollar shall be worth
one hundred cents, who respects the
courts of the country and who is op
posed to mob rule, is invited to join the
excursion.
The distance from Somerset to Canton
and return is over 500 miles, and the Bal
timore A Ohio Railroad has agreed to
make a round trip rate of f'J.00 for the Re
publicans of Somerset county on this
occasion.
lu addition to the honor of calling upon
Major McKinley, the excursionists will
enjoy a long daylight ride from their
homes to the home of the next President.
The train will lie for the exclusive rse of
passengers from Somerset county, and
will make the run from Somerset to Can
bin aud return without change of cars
and without uunecewsary stops.
Former residents of Pennsylvania, now
citizens ot Canton, will meet the excur
sionists upon their arrival and w ill ten
der t hem an escort to Major McKinley's
home.
It will lie a great day, and no one can
afford to miss it.
From reHrts received from the differ
ent districts up to this time, it is practic
ally certain that not less than I.ti voters
will accompany the excursion. Meyers
dale will contribute not less than b,
Salisbury and Flk Lick "j, Berlin aud
Brolhersvalley im. Rockwood and stir
roundii.g country 1W, I'rsina, Continence
aud adjacent territory J Somerset
Friedens ami Lislie litu, Stoyestown,
Hooversville and northern districts 3t.
It is more than probable that the figures
given aliove will lie doubled in a number
of districts, and it is not at all impossible
that the number of excursionists will
number IJW.
In order to secure comfortable accom
modations it is absolutely necessary that
every person intending to accompany the
excursion should give his name to one
of the following named gentlemen circu
lating papers for signatures in the differ
ent districts:
Robert K. Ross. Addison.

POINTERS.
National Chairman Hanna has adopted
golden rod as the floral emblem of the
McKinley campaign and it has been sug
gested that all of the excursionists to
Canton wear a small bouquet of that very
appropriate flower. Some of the excur
sionists should take enough golden rod
w ith them to share with their brethren
from towns who w ill not have an oppor
tunity to provide themselves with
bouquets.
The trains from the north over the S.
Jt C and from Meyersdale will meet at
ib.'kwood, where the through Cauton
(rain w ill be made up.
A it will require between eight and
cine hours to make the run from Somer
aet to Canton, it w ill lie advisable for all
excursionist to take lunuhes with them.
Put your lunch in a bo that can bit fired
out of a car window when empty.
The railroad company have promised
to deliver the coaches to te occupied by
the excursionists at the different stations
on Monday evening, thus giving an op
portunity to the Republicans of the vari
ous places to decorate the cars w ith ap
propriate streamers.

Tbo Bedford Coanty Congressional Sqnabbl
SnbmitUd to the Chairman of the
State Committee.
The four aspirants for congressional
honors in this district have agreed to sub
mit the Bedford couuty case to Chairman
John P. F.lkin. of the Republican State
Committee, for final decision. The prop
osition came from Messrs. Thropp and
Evans and waa agreed to by Messrs.
Hicks and Kooser. It reads as follows:
Altooka, Pa., Sept. 3, 18M.
lO-iitlenieii : bernas. a Uisitute lias
arisen as to w ho are the rightful congrea
uml isnnteneen from the county of Bed
ford, in the Tweutieth Congressional lis
trit ; therefore, in order to determine the
question as to w bo constitute the properly
atvredited conferreea from said county of
Bedford, we hereby offer aud propose to
submit the question to the Hon. John P.
Klkin. Chairman of the Republican State
Central Committee, for his determination
and decision, and further agree that his
decision shall be final and conclusive.
Respectfully,
JosKPH K.THROPP,
Alvis Evans.
Mr. Thropp aaid : "Either I am right
or I am wrong. If I am wrong, then let
the Chairman give the entire Bedford
delegation to Mr. Hicks. If I am right,
I want them all myself. I will not coun
tenance auy half-way measure." This
speech from the Bedford county candi
date was called forth by a question as to
whether he would divide the Bedford
delegation with Hicks.
The Thropj-Evans conferreee met in
Alttx.ua Wednesday, and the Hicks-
Kooser couferrees in Tyrone Thursday.
It was not until Saturday night that the
four candidates agreed to submit the
question to Chairman Elkin.
The conference will meet at Johnstown

A Cheap Take.
Not less than five hundred people were
hoodw inked Monday afternoon by a fake
bicycle race. At least that uumber of
people paid gate money to enter the Gen
tlemen's Driving Park, where Paul Wer
ner, of Summit township, aud Charles
II. Young, of Meyersdale, were adver
tised to run a two-mile bicycle race for
the championship of Somerset county
aud a purse of $M, each of the principals
having deptisited fl(J iu the hands of J.
J. Berkebile, of Meyersdale, Werner
and Young were lioth early on the
eround. each accompanied by a host of
admirers. The Werner men appeared to
lie in the majority aud made a liberal
show of money, but were able to obtain
only a few side bets. It was manifest
long licfore two o'clock, the hour set for
the race, that Young would not "go," his
friends commencing a vigorous "kick'
as soon as they reached the track. Their
objection seemed to lie centered on Mr.
Leonard, one of the three judges agreed
upon to decide the contest. Finally,
Let mard retired from the stand and Mr.
Iteeter, of Meyersdale, took his place.
Even this did not satisfy Young's friends
whose sand had all trickled out of their
boots. As a last resort, the judges or
dered the riders to be ready in five min
utes. Werner jumred lightly on his
wheel, which was held under the w ire by
several of his friends. Young's wheel
was also under the wire, but Young was
not on it, nor did h) mount. The word
was given, and Werner pedaled four
times around the track, wbeu he was de
clared the winner. Werner is clearly en
tilled to the purse, and stakeholder Ber
kebile should lose no time in handing it
over to him. All side beta were declared
off. A more disgusted crowd was never
seen in the county than was the one at
tracted by this fake.
According to the articles of agreement
under w hich the ra was to 1 run, each
principal was to select one judge, and the
two thus chtuseu were two agree upon a
third. Young selected C. P. Hellley, of
Somerset ; Werner selected Ed. Iouard,
of Meyersdale, and they selected Charles
F. I'hl, Jr., of Somerset. Young's friends
insisted that Leonard had money up on
the result, and was therefore debarred
from acting as judgt While the jangling
waa going on in regard to Iieonard's right
to act. Young mounted his wheel and
rode around the track four times, thus
completing two miles. After he had ac
complished this feat, some of his support
ers claimed that the race was over, inas
much as Weruer had failed to score at the
appointed hour, "J o'clock. Young madp
his two miles w ithout the knowledge of
the judges and without having received
the word.
AYerner and Young, with their trainers,
have lieen in Somerset for the past two
or three weeks preparing for the roe,
A three-mile race between Milt inn,
of Meyersdale, Charley Miller, of Sum

Selecting a Cares r.
"Next to the matter of selecting a wife
which in the majority of cases is little
more than a leap in the dark the most
important problem which a young man
has to confront is that of deciding upon
his trade, business or profession," writes
Rev. Charles II. Parkhurst, D. D.t in
Ladies' Home Journal. Almost any
young man's decision as to w hat he is
going to do w ill mean the narrow ing of
his preparation, whereas all success that
is fairly worthy of the name means
breadth of preparation. A man needs to
get a great mass of foundation under bun
if be is going to put either a high or
wide structure on the top of it, and if he
knows too soon exactly what It is he is
goiug to do that mass of fouudatiou will
not be forthcoming. In ail cases where
it is possible it is a great deal better for a
man to get the knowledge first and then
let that decide what the vocation shall be
than to decide the vocation first and let
that determine what sort of know ledge
he shall accumulate.
Hainan is in earnest to do the tHt
that is in him, it will lie much to his ad
vantage to get over the feeling that there
js any hurry about actually settling down
to his work. It is a great deal wiser to
ijrift aud to do almost anything that of
ten as temporary arrangement than to
wake op one's mind filially and" irro
trievably to an employment that may
possibly be a misfit and that will involve
therefor a oortain amount of failure.
We can safely depend upon it that in the
ease of a man w ho has a strenuous pur
pose there is a certain gravitating tenden
cy between birn and the work be ia beat
fitted to do, and if that gravitating ten
dency is not hurried too much it will as
sert itself, and the man without any ex.
cessively painful searching of the heart,
will find himself where he belongs.
Along this line the only safe decisions
are the decisions that shape themselves
and that we settle into without being
very distinctly conscious at any time
that a conclusion is being reached."

ABSOLUTELY PURE
W. C. T. V. Convention.
The Twelfth Annual Convention of the
W. C. T. L'. of Somerset county met in
the M. E. Church at Somerset, Sept. 1M
ami 3d. After the opening of the Con
vention by the Presideut, Mrs. A. W.
Knepper, of Somerset, and devotional
exercises conducted by Mrs. Thompson,
of I'rsina, a quartette from the Lutheran
choir sang "Nearer My "od to Thee."
A cordial address of welcome was ex
tended by Mrs. A. E. Frease in behalf of
the W. C. T. L of Somerset, and by Rev.
Coyle in behalf of the Ministers which
were gracefully responded to by Mrs.
Rev. Moore, of Meyersdale, and Miss
Etta Black, of Confluence.
The church was beautifully decorated
with cut How ere, palms banners and
flags An interesting programme was
carried out. The Unions throughout the
county were well represented, and all
sessions were well attended. The music
during the Convention was conducted by
Mrs L. A. Hay, of Somerset. Mrs.
Rhoads of Allegheny, was called upon
by the President to give a short talk; she
Idressed the young people principally.
Mrs Holvy, of West Pittston, Pa., de
livered a very able and soul-stirring lec
ture, w hich was listened to with intense
interest.
Thursday's sessions were devoted to the
usual routine of business Ib'ixirts were
called for, read and approved, commit
tees were appointed on credentials court
esies resolutions anil time aud place for
next convention.
Excellent papers were read by Mrs
Ir. Speicher, of Salisbury, on "Personal
Responsibility," and Mrs. Jennie Will
iams of Salisbury, on "Social Evils."
Mrs Hay read a paper prepared by Mrs.
Rishel, of Johnstown, on "Woman and
Politics." Recitations by the Misses
Amy Shaffer, of Confluence, Elizabeth
Thompson, of I'rsina, Harriette Brow n,
of Baltimore, and Winnie Kneper, of
Somerset, were very impressive and well
received. The President's annual ad
dress was comprehensive, earnest and
inspiring. Addresses by Mr. M. J.
Pritts Esq., anl the Reverends Iavid-
son, Houpt ami Coyle, were encouraging
and very much appreciated.
The exercises by the Loyal Temper
ance Legion under the superinteudency
of Mrs M. O. Kooser were well conduct
ed and entertaining. We trust the earn
estness displayed by this organization of
young people may lie spread throughout
the county. Several of the young ladies
of the L. T. L. were selected as "pages'
during the convention, and performed
their part well, lioking into the earn
est faces and dignified bearing of these
young men and maidens we realize
what a strong force is growing up for ab
stinence ami prohibition. The W. C. T.
U. paved the way for these young feet
aud they are coming with firm and
steady tread, bearing the colors and mot
to of "No Retreat No Compromise The
Saloon Must go." Solos by Misses Sada
Hocking, of Meyersdale, Elizabeth
Thompson and Ruby Roberts greatly
pleased the audience. A male quartette
from the Disciple choir sanir "Where
Will You Spend Eternity." A duet by
J. Brallier and Lizzie Thompson was
well rendered. Mrs. Rhoads delivered a
well prepared address Mrs. lrMe
Kinley, of Meyersdale, was elected debs-
gate to the State Convention to meet in
Pittsburg in October.
The following officers were elected for
the ensuing year President, Mrs A. W.
Knepper; Yi-e President at Large, Mrs.
Lydia McKinley; Corresionding Secre
tary, Mrs. A. E. Frease; Recording Sec
retary, Mrs Rev. Moore; Treasurer,

The Convention was enthusiastic ami
satisfactory, and on the whole was a
success socially and in its results The
