Therk is one consensus that Bryan
w ill be nominated at Kana9 City, and
auoUitr, equally perceptible through
out the country, that he will be beaten
again. The people have evidently ad
justed themselves to at least four years
more of Republican prosperity.
Havimj been nominated for Vice
President by the Middle-Road Pop,
Ignatius Donnelly will not have any

J 1ST how an employee of ex-Asaem-blyinan
Koonfz's " print shop," one F.
Forney, became a member of the Re
publican Executive Committee of the
county will require explanation. Hie
name appears on some of Mr. Berkey's
"official papers." His appointment
probably came in the same manner
ami from the same source as did a
number of the "fake" committet-
At the recent "fake" Convention,
personally conducted by Messrs.
Koontz and Kooser, it was not deemed
worth while to open and read the rr
turns as has always been done beret
fire, and as was done in the regular
'(Vinveution. The "fakirs" just d.
cUred- tbeir candidates nominated,
using a table prepared prior to the
meeting and without the official re
turns. The American system of education,
which is soon to be established in the
Philippines, will have a gret influence
in giving ihe islands balance and in
pre paring them for the measure of self
poverument which the United States
is anxious to five them when they
are prt pa.cd for it. The ' American
Khool is going to revolutionize matters
in Porto Rico, too. as will quickly be
fwn. Here will be some triumphs of
peace which will be as notable as aDy
which the United States has won in
war.
If the author of the "probe resolu
tions" introduced in the House at
Harrisbnrg two winters ago, about
which the insurgent organs have had
mi very much to say, wishes to be con
sistent he will low no more time in
bringing the individuals who by no
toriously corrupt means secured the
rvsigoation of the Committeeman of
New Baltimore into court. Bribery
arid corrupt solicitation must be
stamped out in Somerset county as
well as in other sections of Penney!
vaaia.
Noi:-k has been served ou W. H.
Hanuer and Fred Rowe, Republican
iioniinrfs for the Legislature, that the
objections filed to their certificate of
nomination will be argued in the
Dauphin county court on Tuesday,
June 5th. Judging from the notice
tiled in behalf of Messrs. Koontz and
Kendall, we take it for granted that
they concede the fact that their oppo
iienU received a majority of the votes
cast at the recent primsry election, and
base their claim to the right of having
their names printed in the Republican
column on the offi.sxl ballots ou for
mer Chairman Bcrkey's revolutionary
conduct in the Republican convention.
The season is a little backward, and
the Bryanites are praying that crops
this year niuy be a failure. Short crops
would be a calamity to the country,
but it is only on calamity that the
iryanites have any chance for victory.
An epidemic of Asiatic cholera or yel
low fever would please the Democrats
at this time. The prosperity and the
peneral good fortune which the United
States has had ever since the Republi
can party came into power has been
very demoralizing to the men who w ill
asKemble in Kansas City r few weeks
hence to put up a National ticket The
chances, however, are that the season's
backwardness will not materially re
duce Jbe crops, and that the prosperity
which the Republican wider markets
acd higher prices have brought to the
farmers will not be interrupted.
Thixos have come to eucli a pass in
eome sections of Pennsylvania that the
reputation of no man, eppecially those
who occupy public positions, is eafe
from the cowardly and brutal attacks
of yellow journalism. The latest in
sane to corns under our observation
occurred in Philadelphia, where cer
tain newspapers whose editorial opin
ions are measured with a bargain
counter yardstick have for months
past, by innuendo and insinuation, at
tacked the character of Mayor Ash
bridge and Director of Public Safety
English, even to the extent of invading
the sanctity of their homes. Last week !
English visited John Wanaraaker for
the purpose of atking him to call off
the dogs who haw been hounding him
through a journal alleged to be con
tmlled by the millionaire merchant.
and threatenentng in cj-si he did not !
d so to retaliate by making public '
43aav!t alleged to have leen eolkct-
d reflecting upon the private charac
ter of the former Postmaster General.
Later Mr. Waaamaker gave to the
public a carefully prepared version of
what had tram-pined, to which Mr.
English has replied that Mr. Wana
maker "is not truthful la his state
ment." It is a uasty affair through
out The Philadelphia yellow journals
have their imitators io Somerset
county.
jOn April 21st the Republican voters
of Larimer township met at the "usual
place of holding general elections," as
provided by the party rule, and the
duly elected Committeeman, Mr. J. F.
Suiith, with the assistance of two com
petent clerks, opened the poll at the
usual hour and conducted the primary
in strict accordance with the party
rules. There were 31 vote ct, of
which H. M. Berk'ey, for Congress,
received 30; W. H. Banner and Fred.
Rowe, for Assembly. 2S and SO respec
tively; F. J. Kooeer, for Congress, re
ceived no vctes, and V. H. KoonU
and 8. A. Kendall, for Assembly, one
each. Afler be had completed his
labors connected with the primary,
Committeeman Smith returned home
and found awaiting him a letter from
one J. A- Berkey, notifying him
(Smith) that be had been removed as
Committeeman of Larimer township.
While Smith was conducting the regu
lar primary at the "usual place for
holdicg general elections," one Tress
Ier set up a poll la an outbuilding and
proceeded to bold a little "fake" elec
tion of his own. At the Convention
of Return Judges Chairman Berkey,
backed by Kooutz. Kendall and Koo-
ser, refused to recognize Mr. Smith as
the Committeeman from Larimer
township or to compute the vote cast
at the primary held by him, but com
puted the vote cast at the " fake " pri
mary held by Tressler and gave Tress
ler a voice and vote in his Convention.
It is ou pretexts such as this that
Messrs. Koontz, Kendall and Kooser
would seek to disfranchise a large num
ber of their fellow-citizens and to pre
vent regularly nominated candidates
from being accorded their rights and
to have their names placed on the offi
cial ballot this fall. What do tho Re
publicans of Somerset county think of
this sort of conduct on the part of men
whom they have heretofore honored
with positions of trust and profit?
Legacy Tax Affi m d.
Washington, May 14 In the Supreme
Court to-day Justice Whits handed down
an opinion affirming t'je constitutionality
of the taxes on inheritances.
The validity of the general Federal
law was affirmed by Justice White, but
it was held to be pure'y applicable to
legacies and not to the entire extatea of
deceased persons, the court holding that
"The tax is on the paning of legacies or
distributive shares of personality, witb
a progressive rate on each, separately
determined by the sura of such legacies
or distributive shares."
In his decision Justice White said :
"All legacies below f 10,000 are not taxed
and those above that amount are taxed
primarily by the degree of relationship
or absence thereof, specified in the five
classifications contained in the statute
and the rate of tax is progressively in
creased by the amount of each separate
lagacy or distributivu shares."
Shot Bead During a Spree.
Johnstown, May 13 Ttolert Wood
was shot dead and Alexander Kelly a
wounded Saturday night by Michael
Brown, who keeps a boarding house at
Puritan, Pa., an l with whom the other
men boarded. The latter were miners
and had been on a spree several days.
Saturday night Brown came home late
and was attacked by Kelly and Wood
hen be entered his home. They knock
ed hiin down and were beating him un
mercifully, when Brown pulled a revol
ver and shot Wood through the heart,
killing him instantly. He then shot
Kelly in the neck, wounding him seri
ously. Brown then went to a constable
and gave himself op and he was hurried
to jail at Ebensburg for fear of violence
at the bauds of friends of Wood and
Kelly. He claims he did the shooting in
self defense and that the men intended to
kill him.

XE5T. When General Prosperity established
a headquarter iottlf couny-wo years
ago even the most opiioaiittic were un
prepared to believe tt)t be would create
such a stir as has since been witnessed,
and which promises to continue until
Somerset county takes rank among the
leading mineral and coal producing coun
ties of Pennsylvania. While Somerset
is some what removed from the localities
where developments are being made,
nevertheless this town is perhaps the
best point in tha county from w hich to
view the marvelous strides that have
and are being made to develop our natu
ral resources and place them on the
market.
Every deal that has or will be con
summated must naturally come to light
here where the final transactions become
matters of court and public record. Many
impending larga deals, as a matter of
course, are kept in the background and
as far as possible under cover until all of
the details have been thoroughly worked
out, but sufficient light has already been
shed to show that some of the biggest
transactions ia coal aud mineral lauds
are yet to be made public.
Dozens of strangers visit tha court
bouse every day f-r the purpose of mak
ing abstracts of the public records, run
ning onto titles of pieces of real estate
or leaving deeds to be reoarded. In fact
the Recorder of Deeds is kept so busy
receiving and entering deeds alone that
he has little time for anything else. - As
an ! lustration of the work doing In Reg
ister and Recorder Sbafer'a office it ia
only necessary to state that during the
months of January, February, March
and April of this year 908 deeds were
entered of leoord. This is a larger num
ber than were entered in an entire year
in the Register and Recorder's office ten
years ago.
But the Recorder's office is not the only
busy place about town, nor is it the only
place where an idea can be formed of the
transfers being mads daily in real estate
and mineral rights. The offices of a
number of well known attorneys are
crowded throughout office hours and
often until late In the night by parties
who are interested ii ths deals being
made, and who are anxious to have the
titles of their landk and minerals perfect
ed in order that they can exchange them
for money. v The ruh has been so great
at the offices of a number of attorneys
that stenographers and copyists have
been called into requisition.
Other busy places are the banking in
stitutions, where farmers who have dis
posed of tbeir lands are opening ac
counts. It U reported that 75,000 was
paid out during the pant two weeks by
one syndicate, who have purchased a
large tract of coal land north ot this place.
This sum is only a small fraction of the
amount of money the same syndicate
will pay over to the owners of the tract
during the comiugfew weeks.
Meanwhile dozens of engineer corps
are surveying in all sections of the coun
ty, drillers with diamond drills are busi
ly engaged boring boles hundreds offset
nnder the surface in order that their em
ployers may have correct knowledge of
the depth and quality of the coal they
hare or contemplate purchasing, and to
gin such information as will indicate
how tha coal can be most advantageously
mined and slipped to market.
Wherever mines have bem opened
michan; s are employed erecting dwell
ing houses, and judging from those we
have seen, all are being built with a view
not only for the comfort of prospective
tenants, but to stand the wear and tear o
many years.
Many agents are .still busily at work
taking options on coal lands that have
not tlready been leased or purchased,
while coal operators without exception
are adding to their acreage and increas
ing thtir output as rapidly as new ma
chinery and additional men can be em
ployed.
The Berwind-White Coal Company is
now shipping 3X car loads of coal daily
and it is confidently expected that the
output from their numerous openings in
this county will Teach Cm cars daily be
fore the close of another year. All of the
operations in the Meyersdtle and Berlin
fields are working to their full capacity
while these along the Somerset A Cain
bria branch were never before as busy as
at present. New mints are being opened
along the S. A C. every few days. The
stranger who has not passed over tbit
line during the past year will not recog
nize the landscape when he next sees it.
Somerset is and will continue to be the
natural commercial centre for a wide
area, the population of which has been
largely increased during the past two
years and which in all probability will
be doubled if not trebled during the
coming year. Somerset business men
have let no opportunity escape thsr . -jn
supply the demands of the augmented
population, but they now find that they
are unable to meet the demand for tens
raent houses, store rooms and business
office. There is not a vacant store room
or otHcs in ths town aa I the Herald
has been able to learn of oalyons v it
dwelling bouse pretentious family
residence that is unoccupied to-day,
Inquiries for store rooms and offices are
matters of daily occurrenco, notwith
standing the big advance in rents. Here
is an oppnrtuuity for safe investment that
should appeal to soma of our monied
men, especially to those who wish to
secure all the trade possible for Somerset.

Tha vlatforrn " denounces the act of
March 14, 1900, as the culmination of a
long aeries of conspiracies to relegate to
a gigantic money trust the control of tbs
purse of the people. It-denounces this
act tor making all money obligations,
domestic and foreign, payahla in gold
