The re-nomination on Saturday last
of E. W. Parshall of Warren, for Assem
bly, practically without opposition, and
that of Thos. McGough and P. M. Spoor,
n Venango, by a unanimous vote, is a
compliment to those gentlemen which
they richly deserve. lithe membership
of all legislatures were made up of such
material tho people's interests would In
nowise suffor,. Their re-election is a
foregone conclusion.
Who are the gallant maids T The Oil
City Mizzard says : Tho military girl Is
broad in the land. She has caught the
war fever j and, like the jolly little Jingo
that she is, she wants to go pluck the
beards of the dons. Four Forest County
girls have written Governor Hastings,
offering their services as nurses. The
'new" women who want to go to war or
to Alaska, should be allowed to do so.
They never will be missed.
Emanuel Mealy, living with his family
of seven children, in ilie Mealy settle
ment, Tionesta township, was found dead
in bed last Sunday morning, when one
of the children went up to awaken him
for breakfast. He was a son of the late
Honry Mealy and was aged about 45
years. His wife died while they lived hi
West Virginia, from whence he returned
about a year ago. Heart disease is sup
posed to bavo been the cause of his death.
The mayor of Meadville has called
an election, to be held April 7, to vote on
the question of bonding the city for fl53,
000 to purchase the plant ol tho Meadville
Water Company. What this borough
ought to do is to purchase the plant oU
tho Tionesta Water Company, and that
right away. Every municipality should
own and control its own water plant.
Experience has taught that a borough or
city can make no mere profitable invest
ment.
Numerous changes In residences are
booked tor the first of April In our bor
ough. Jerry Blrtcil will move into the

pied by K. C. Heath, who expects to be
domiciled in his new house by that time.

not sufficiently supplied with data to lo
cato all properly.
The Supremo Court's decision, af
firming tho debtee of the Dauphin county
court in denying the motion for a prelim
inary injunction, which restrained the
Capitol Building Commission from pro
ceeding with the work as contemplated
ends with the following sentence: "and
the appeal is dismissed at the appellant's
cost." Wonder what the next step will
be to dolay work of tho Commission in
its effort to give tho State a new capitol
in accordance with the provisions of the
lawT
There has been considerable newspa
per discussion as to win n the 20th cen
tury will begin. The New York San set
tles the question with the following apt
illustration: "The 20th century will bo-
gin at midnight, Dec. 31, 1000, Jan. 1,
1901. If you had 2,000 silver dollars to
place in piles cantaining 100 each, your
first pile would end with number 100;
your second pilo would begin with 101
and end with 200, and your 20th pile
would begin with 1901 and ond with
2,000. It is the same way with tho cen
turies." The continued warm weather has
brought out the buds on the fruit, maple
and other soft wood trees to the bursting
point, in fact, in many instances the buds
have opened and are exposed to the ele
ments. All sorts of prophecies of dire
distruction to fruit are heard, but what
the future will bring forth no mortal
knows, and it may be just as well to re
frain from borrowing trouble over the
matter, and wait and see. It may be an
early spring. You can't tell. And you
can't change the program, no matter
what the results.
Largo runs of timber and lumber
have been made on the creek within
tho past week, the water being at
an admirably fine stage for that purpose.
About all the timber of the Watson
Lands Lumber Co. at Mayburg and Min
ister creek has been gotten out, and a
fine lot it Is, too. A considerable quanti
ty of manufactured lumber from May
burg has also been brought out. Other
firms have boen enabled to got out much
stock in tho shape of logs, which will be
worked up here. The river is too high
at present for running to the lower mar
kets.
Capes, Capes, Capes. Cheap! At
Miles A Armstrong's. It
Hon. W. O. Smith, four; times the
faithful representative of the people of
Jefferson county iu tho Slate legislature,
is talked of by his largo circle of friends,
who never tire of a good man, for a fifth
term, but we have doubted somewhat
that it was of his seeking until we ob
served this bluff for the farmer vote in
the last issue of bis Spirit : "This beau
tiful spring-like weather is calculated to
make a man feel like grasping a spade
and going oagerly to work in his gar
den." Bro. Smith richly deserves another,
and as many tvruis in the legislature as
he wants, but we are sorry to see him
rush into print with his hoe and spade.
