Harry P.ussel Schroyer, who pleaded

concealed weapons and jail - breaking,
was called before the court for itentence
la-t Wednesday afternoon. When asked
what, if anything, he had to aay before
sentence was imposed, be made a short
plea for a light sentence, declaring that he
had made up his miud to lead an upright
life hereafter. Judge L-ingenecker inouir
el why thi pris)tir hid brikea 1
twic-e. when Schroyer promptly replied;
"Well, I thought it was their business to
keep me in, and that it was my business
to get out." He said that the assault
made by Elly and Zrfoss on Deputy
Sheritl Baker had been planued several
weeks before be wa arrested and brought
to jail the second time. Judge Longen
ecker sentenced him to three years in the
penitentiary on tbe two bills of indict
ment charging tbe defendant with bur
glary eighteen months in each case and
on the remaining bills to pay a fine of fl
and the costs o f proswuliou in each case.

Tbe following additional pirticnlars of
the death of E. (). Davis, notice of which
was published last week, are taken
from tbe Bradford Record, of May 29.
"Elarard O Davis diel at the hospital
at 4 o'clock this morning. Ieath was
caused by an almcess on the brain. One
year ago last March Mr. Davis under
went an operation for an abs'eas in the
pleural cavity. Four weeks later he was
operated upon again. He recovered and

but latterly began to fail and four week
ago last Wednesday another operation
waa performed which disclosed tuber
cular conditions. It is said that tbe op
eration was Bueoew-ful, however, bnt the
vendition of tbe blood caused an abKcesa
to develop on tbe brain and the palieut
gradually failed until death released hiiu
from suffering. Mr. Davis was 3d year
of age and unmarried. He bad been a

When the following letter was sent by

dates for Prothonotary from the field in
order that John G. Emert, who has held
the lucrative post of clerk to the Com
missioners for tbe past six years, might
have a clear track; bow "boas" Shober
forced all other aspirants to quit the race
ir Register and Recorder, as he proposed
1 nominate bis man Ivimmel for that
position; how a "committee" was ap
pointed to fix np candidates for County
Commissioner, and haw th tt orn-nittee
met and at the dictation of "boss" Shober,
after, we presume a brief season of fast
ing and prayer, solemnly concluded it
would never do to ruu counter to the
wishes of go powerful a "boss" as "boss"
Shober, and forthwith proceeded to in
form Joseph Horner and Peter Rowman
that when they were distribut;ug cards
aud electioneering for tbe office of County
Commissioner they were only dreaming,
and to proclaim W. X. Moser and U. D.
Rrauclier, the slated acd "endorsed" can
didates for that position, is nw a matter
of ancient history. The seleciiou of can
didates for Delegates to the State Couveu
tion was the final work of the "com
mittees" appointed by the "compare
notes" meeting, and now, having them
selves decided on candidates for every
position to be filled at the coming Re
publican primtry, considerately reliev
ing the common voter of tbe labor of
selecting or choosing his own candidates,
they, in the classic language of Candi
date Homer, propose to spend the re
mainder of the campaign in an effort "to
learn the people bow to vote intelligent
ly," that is, to vote without a soratcb the
ticket, they, the "bosse," have selected.
These lessons ou "intelligent voting"
are given in set-ret, behind closed doors,
and by such past- masters iu tbe art of
"intelligent voting" as D. J. Horner, YA.
H. Koouti, J. A. Berkey, and a limited
uum'oer of their talented and experienced
instructors. We presume the questions
treated include Mich subjects as "How to
Scratch a Ticket," "The Advantages of
Minority Rule," "How to Intelligently
Vote tbe Democratic Ticket at the Gen
eral Election if the Man of Your Choice
is not Successful at the Primaries," "The
Best Method of Bolting Party Caucuses
and Itefeatiug Party Nominees," aud
other kindred topiiw.
True, tbe discussion ot such topics at
the organization of a "McKlnley League"
would seem to be out of placa. President
Mclviuiey has always been known as a
firm believer in party regularity, organ
ization, majority 'ule, and unalterably
opposed to "kicking," "bolliug." or
"xcratching" a regularly nominated tick
et, so that tbe name is apparently a mis
nomer, and, we are informed that the
"McKinley League" acbeme has already
been abandoned as it was considered too
dangerous a "fake," it being difficult to
make voters believe that it was necessary
to bold secret meetings, where none but
the truly good could tss admitted, for the
innocent purrs of organixing a "Mc
Kinley League."
Tbe first lemons in "intelligent voting"
were given at Jenners some ten day
since, but tbe doctriue attempted to be
taught does not seem to have been ac
ceptable to tbe Republican voter of that
township, who naturally think them
selves sufficiently Intelligent to do their
own voting without instructions from
Assemblyman Kooutr, bis side-partner
and ubiquitous shadow, D. J. Horner, J.
A- Berkey, et- al , and they rightfully re
sented the insult attempted to be placed
npon them, and to such an extent that
the "Uisses" reoeived wjid from one of
their "sub-boBses" at Jenners a few days
after the meeting to the effect that "that
ineetiu' had stirred up mullin in Jenner
tow nship, and that unless the slated can
didates could get ln there and stem tbe
tide, Jenners could be counted as lost to
the cause of 'boas' dictation and minori
ty rule."
Stonycreek township Republicans were
given their first leston iu "intelligent
voting" last week, as were the Republi
cans of Meyersdale, and, now that tbe
last "committee" has made its report the
"instructors" w ill have time to visit tbe
remaining precincts of the county in rapid
succession.
It bas been suggested that a number of
changes in the curriculum will have to be
made or the slated ticket will surely suf
fer defeat. The people are demanding
that Assemblyman Koontx, instead of
telling tbeui how he helped "lick"Quay,
and how to vote tha ticket he assisted in
slating, explain why he did not oppose
tbe passage of the seven mouth school
term bill, why be remained dumb as an
oyster while this measure was before the
House, why it was that be could find
time and voice to go up and down tbe
Sute making political speeches in an ef
fort to sow dissension and discord within
his party, yet could not find timeor voice
to serve bis constituent by opposing thi
measure so distasteful to a large majority
of them. They would also like him to
explain hi course in bolting the Republi
can caucus, refusing to vote for the party
nominee for United State Senator, block
ing needed legislation, and preventing
tbe passage of measure providing suffi
cient revenue to meet tbe demands on tha
Treasury and necessitating the reduction
of the publio school appropriation. They
are a!o anxious to have him explain why
be and bis colleague. Kendall delayed the
Introduction of the bill proposing to
salary certain county otUcials until th
time fr advertising it so that it could be
properly introduced had gone by, and
then attempted to sell their constituent
a "gold brick" by Introducing it when
every intelligent schoolboy in the county
knew that it could not be considered, and
that it attempted introduction waa a
1 fake" of the rankest kind.
When these and a few other matter
that tbe people am interested in have
been fully explained by Assembly in an
Kron'x, they will still bave other matters
to be eiplalued by his f.dlcw "busses" be
fore they conclude to "rote intelligently,"
or to vote the "boss" dictated tk't.et.
The Republican voters of tbe county
bad sufficient confidence Jn Aswmbly
intn Krs-nlz aud Kendall lo elec them
last year, and how they betiayeil that
trut aud M-t tbe wishes of their c.nstit
ueuts at dtfiauce, every uue who is fa
miliar with tbbjr record at Hatrisburg
last winter knew. They now ask the
Republican voters of the county to ea
dorse their action and to elect a ticket
they and their fellow "bosses" have
named for them.
The "bowses" have completed their
ticket; wili th people nominate it, or
will thi-y elect candidates of their owu
choosing?
The choice is with them.

I LYE" BEFOBK ES AT THEIR OLD
GAME. TETIHO TO 'TAKE" THE
PEOPLE.
The hypocrisy of the so called reformers
was never more strikingly illustrated
than the present attempt to derive tbe
voters of tbe county by charging tbe reg
ular Republican organisation of the State
with being responsible for the increase of
the minimii'ii school term, and for clip
ping f l.ftiO.OOO from the school appropria
tion.
So far as Governor Stone' action in
cutting down the public school appropri
ation is concerned there is not a citizen of
Pennsylvania, except tbe hypocritical re
formers who are seeking to gain a fac
tional advantage, who does not regret
that be was compelled to do so but,
when the bolting member of the Legis
lature refusfHl to provide suilicdent reve
nue to defray the current expenses of the
State government, the Governor was left
110 alternative.
The entile question is a very simple
one. The State revenues bad to le in
creased or the expenditures cut down.
and we venture to assert that there is not
an honest taxpayer in Somerset county
who does not believe that it is far wiser to
curtail expenditures than to build up a
debt that must ultimately be paid by taxation.
Representatives Koontz and Kendall
were, we believe, tbe only two members
of tbe Flinn-Martin faction who voted
against increasing the minimum school
term and the extent of their influence, if
they had any and exerted it, muft be
udged by the vote cast against the bill la
the House, a total of forty-one, while one
hundred aud forty-one votes were cat in
favor of tbe bill. In order to escape
further censure for their inactivity and
ukew-armnesa to the interest of their
constituents they now attempt to hold
the regular Rr publicans responsible for
the success of the measure, which was sup
ported by nearly every bolting Republi
can aud their Democratic allies. It would
be equally unfair for the friends of Repre
sentatives Koontz and Kendall to shift
tbe responsibility for tbe failure of the
bill to salary certain emnty officials, or
the bill to make wholesalers retailers of
whisky, as to charge Governor Stone
with protecting the brewery interests to
the detriment of the public schools of tbe
Suite,
Not satisfied with misrepresenting tbe
facts in c tnnection with the passage of
the school bill, against which Representa
tive Koontz failed to utter a word, the
fake" organ in its last issue and by
printed circulars scattered throughout
the county falsifies the report of tbe
Superintendent of Publio Instruction,
hoping lo thereby divert the attention of
the Republican voters of the county from
the record made by their Represeutatives

Xtw 01o Law la Fero.
Anxiously waited by tbe dairymen,
and equally feared by tbe oleo dealers,
tbe new law respecting tbe sile of oleo
margarine went into effect June 1st.
Tbe law, which will be particularly bard
00 small dealers and the proprietors of
twarding bouses, provide that
"Every person who shall sell or have in
bis or her posession oleomargarine, but
tirioeor any similar substance shall first
c'oUln from tbe department of Agrienl
tuie, through it agent, tbe dairy and food
commissioner, a license authorizing him
or ber to engage in the sale of oleomarga
rine, for which license be or she shall pay,
if a retailer, the annual sum of $100; if a
hotel proprietor or restaurant keeper, t-'iO,
and If a boarding house keeper, tbe an
nual sum of f 10. Before any person shall
ell or have in hi or ber possession oleo
margarine he or she shall be required to
procure a sign or sign clearly setting
forth that ha or she i engaged in the sale
of oleomargarine; these signs shall be
hung in a conspicuous place."
A violation in the smallest letter of
thi law may result in tbe trial of the of
fender in either tbe civil or criminal
court.
Three deputies, nnder dairy and food
Commissioner Levi Wei!, are busy ar
ranging to en for. the statute against
tbiM dealer wbo have not as yet paid
tbe fea required by th law and provided
themselves with sign. It is likely that
till more men will have to be employed

At 4:15 o'clock Wednesday afternoon
tbe jury returned a verdi.-t of murder In
the first degree in tbe case of Sarauol Pe
ter Meyer for tbe killing of John Len
bart. Tbe jury retired shortly before 2
o'clock and tbeir deliberations occupied
two hours. The solemn countenances of

The Meyers case ift
the history of criii
So far Is known Samart
is tbe first man in Pennsylvania, or in tbe
country, who has been twice convicted of
murder in tbe first degree, only three
days Intervening between the findings of
the two juries, as be may be the first man
in the State to be sentenced to death twice
on tbe same day. Anticipating that the
pplication for new trials will be denied
aod that the two cases will be taken up
for review by the Supreme Court, and
that the verdicts will be nfbriued by that
body, his counsel may still have recourse
to the Board of Pardons. Should the
B iard of Pardons rofuse a pardon or
commutation of sentence it will then de
volve upon the Governor to Issue two
death warrants to the Sheriff of the coun
ty, one directing the execution of Meyers
for the murder of Michael Karney and
the other directing bis execution for the
murder of John Lenhart. The Sheriff
will make return to tbe court of the exe
cution of the condemned man on the first
warrant, thus completing the record in
the Karney case, and tbe warrant in the
Lenhart case will be endorsed "for exe
cution of this warrant see warrant in
Commonwealth vs. Meyers, No. 8, Sept.
term, 1, ). A T, of Somerset comity,
Pa.,1 which will also close the record in
the Lenhart cane.
Strange as it may appear the finding of
the jury in the case against Meyers for
the murder of Karney did not reach tbe
ears ft the juror iu the case against
Meyer for the murder of Lenhart until
after they returned tbeir verdict, and it ia
nee. 11 ess to add that ea. h one of the
twelve '.ten drew a long sigh of relief
when they learned that the two verdicts
were the same and that the prisoner, if
executed, will be executed inconsequence
of the verdict returned by the first jury.
The various phases and complications
growing out of Samuel Peter Meyers'
willful murder of two men will furnish
food for conversation throughout tbe
county for a long time.
Should couusel for tha defendant carry
the case to the Supreme Court it is more
than likely that they will ask to have the
cases sent back for retrial on the ground
that the defendant Is a paranoiac, the
mo t dangerous class of lunatics known,
being able to distinguish perfectly be
tween abstract right and wrong, but una
ble to ocntrol bis will and actions in cer
tain case. Counsel for defeudaut mad
their argument to the juries along tbsl
liue.
Constable Nelson Lenhart, of Summit
township, a brother of John Leohart.nne
of tbe men murdered by Meyers, was un
tiring iu bis effort to work up the Com
monwealth's case, and th result of bis
labor waa shown in both trials, the
Commonwealth presenting its side in
both instances clearly aud forcibly, aeal
ously guarding against the introduction
of extraneous matter that might tend to
perplex tbe minds of tbe jurors.
Tbe Meyer case adds another to tbe
notable murder trials in the Somerset
county court during tbe past ten years.
If tbe Meyers c4 is without a parallel,
tbe same can be said of tbe Nicely aud
I tod J y cases, ia each of which two
brothers were found guilty of murder iu
lbs first degree aud were executed on the
same scaffold Air almost a similar crime.

C-0pratiTt Mutual Fir Iuinraac Co.,
Berlin, Pen',
Tbe only Fire Insurance Company in
four counties that insures stores, inerch
andise, town and farm property; aud of
this class of insurance it is the only
nown Fire Insurance- Company that is
aues policies for five- ars, aud allows tbe
assured to withdraw any time by giving
five days' notice, when the premium note
will be returned with tbe full amount of
cash deposit, without auy extra charge
for short-rate insurance. The total assese
ineuts in five years can not exceed the
amount of the note.
The opponents of Mutual Insurance
would have the insured believe that a
Mutual Company can only exist a few
year. Let us see. There are more thau
two hundred and fifty Mutual Fire Insu
rance Companies la ibis State, and more
than one hundred have been in business,
oa an average, over thirty years, aud
mora than thirty have been in business,
on average, over fifty years. Some long
winded Mutual and it seems they have
come to stay.
The Insurance Commissioner, in bis re
port, says: "The honestly-managed Mu
tual Companies afford tbe best class of
protection at tbe least possible cost, while
those organized for the benefit of specu
lative manager are simply worse swin
dler than tbe rightly abused lotteries."
Opponent of Mutual Insurance would
have the insured believe that all Mutuala
are of the latter class, but try the Co-operative
with at least part of your insu
rance, and be convinced that we are of
the former, that afford the best class cf
protection at the least possible cost.
