There was a pretty strong lorest lire
out near the Fugle Farm, In Harmony

"I don't want to be rich," said a War

I bad rather be poor and well." There's
some truth in this view, but still the vast

are dally striving to that end, regardless
of the means. And yet rich poople are
not as happy as the poor and contented.

THE ASSOCIATE JUDGESHIP.
The RKi'unt.icAN has never believed
much in ' rushing into print" and deny
ing stories that are told In a political cam
paign for political effect, and It doesn't in
tend doing so now to any considerable ex
tent, especially since these 'toiles have not
the least foundation in fact. However, a
silly campaign frbriiatlon Is boing indus
triously circulated totheellect that Mr.
Frank X. Kreltler, Republican nominee
for Associate Judge in Forest county, Is
running In the interest of the lumbermen,
as against the interests of the farmers.
Could a more nonsensical story one that
must strike the average man of sense as
more ridiculous be Invented or imag
ined ? And yet we are told that the Dem
ocrats have so Imlusti iously stuck to this
"yarn" that some of our good, sensible
Republicans are inclined to listen to it.
Ry this story it is Intended, of course, to
convey the Impression that, if elected,
Mr. Kreilltir would raise the tax valua
tion on farms and lower them on timber
lands, being, as be is, engagod In the
lumber business. Now does not that
look absurd on the face of it? Does not
evury man nf sense know that the valua
tion of lands lor the purpose ot taxation
is tixed lirst by the assessors, and then
equalized by the County Commissioners?
We want to ask the peoplo of Forest
cauuty whether or not they kuow Mr.
Kreiller? If so, have they ever beard or
known of his doing a dishonorable act?
On the contrary do they not know bim to
be one of the kindliest, most upright and
Just ciliZBiis we have? Have we not all
heard of bis many gifis ot charity,
amounting to hundreds of dollars, and of
his gooduess toward all his fellow uiei
in business, socially and every other
way ? Could any sane person now be led
to believe that he would lend himself to
any contemptible, underhand methods to
oppress the taxpayers? or to take away
one iota ol their ust dues, if he could?
Another silly story Is to tbe effect that
Mr. Kreltler has expressed himself as
lavoring the granting of license in tbia
borou.b aud Marienville, but in no other
locality. Tbe object of this story is plain
to every one who givea it a second
thought; it being lo scare the temper
auce vo e away from bim, and at the
samo time, alienate the license people in
other sections of the comity. Mr. Kreit
lor has no pledges out on this subject,
but we believe that he has said that each
case should bejudgodou its own merits,
just the same as all other matters that
come before tbo court requiring judicial
Interpretation. Can any fair minded cit
izen ask or expect more tlian this? Any
caudidate who would pledge himself to
grant or refuse all licenses ill order to
gain votes, is not a tit man to sit on the
judicial bench.
The question has also beon asked why
Mr. Kreltler seeks to bejudge? This of
fice Is, or ought to be, considered an hon
orable one. The ambition to be favored
by his party with such prelerment is
surely an honorable ambition. At Mr.
Kreitler's age we have no doubt he would
fet 1 it a graceful compliment were the
people to honor him in this way.
Mr. Kreiller is all right, and tbe Repub
licans of Forest county will see to it that
be is triumphantly elected on the eighth
day of next mouth.
Rev. Ralph R. Roberts, many years
ago a minister of the Methodist church,
of Tioflesta, where be is (till well remem

deceased was prominent in theoil regions
for many years, or until extreme age
prevonted further activity In that line,
he having given up the ministry. He
acquired and lost several fortunes in op

His wife died about five years ago, since

An Oil City angler, says the Derrick,
tried to put into practice in the Alleghe
ny river the device used for capturing
eels in Ihe Gei man rivers recently. He
secured a barrel headed at both ends and
bored a large number ol holes in the side
with a large auger, putting a quantity of
meat Inside as bait. The next morning
there was "narry au eel" in tbe cask, bu'
there were more than 30 Allegheny river
alligators captured. Tho trap is easily
mado and tbe plan might be tried with
good results at every river resort along
the river, with the effect of cleaning out
some if theso most formidable enemies of
the game fish In tbe river from source to
mouth.
A Washington dispatch says tbe Post

Cooks' Mill nt Cooksbtirg Burned.
The saw mill of A.Cook Sons, at Cooks
burg, was burned to the ground last
Thursday night. Au insipid fire bad
started in tbe fine saw dust inside the
building and tbe watchman attempted to
extinguish it with a pail of water. Tbe
rosu It was a flash and sort of an explo
sion, and in an instant the entire inside
of the mill seemed to be In flames. The
mill is located about a mile above the
town, on Tom's Run, and before help
could be summoned tbe structure was
past saving. Under one roof was tbe
sawmill, hub aud shingle mills, all tho
machinery of which was a complete loss,
amounting to betweeu $4,000 and $10,000,
with no insurance. There being no lum
ber noar the mill there was no loss from
this source. This mill was originally
built over 40 years ago by the lato Judge
Cook, and there is fcareely any way of
estimating the amount of lumber that
has been made by itin that length of timo.
The firm will not likely rebuild this fall,
but will put up a new mill in tho spring
down at the town on the Clarion river.

Mission Funds Dy Novel Methods.
Six months ago at tbe close of a mission
study class that had met in ber parlors
every week for six weoks, Mrs. Wheeler,
of Endeavor, gave each member a dime
to work with for six months, the pro
ceeds to go towards the support of the
Endeavor church missionaries, Rov. F.
W. Bible aud wile. Last Friday evening
the ladies mot iu the samo rooms to bring
in tbe proceeds of tbe dimes and relate
the various means employed. There
were sixteen dimes accoun ed for at the
meeting, aud the total earnings of tbe
$1.00 amounted to $132. Other ihurch la
dies contributed $1 each till the final
sum is nearer $1.40, The smallest sum
was $1 and Ihe largest $UI), Mrs. G. B.
Evans' dime earning tbo latter amount.
The ways and means employed iu caus
ing money to grow Iu this marvelous
fashion made a very interesting recital.
The beginnings were most Interesting,
and the following are fair samples : One
member spent 0 cents for flour, one cen t
for baking powder, and made biscuit,
which started a fund of $14; another
bought 9 cents worth of sateen and made
three shirt pockets, for which she got 25
cents. Others made a small amount of
candy, the proceeds earning enough for a
larger amount, etc. Another bought rat
liia enough for a hat; bat brought $1.
Three cents bought snot to clean bottles
at a penny a piece. Another bought a pen
and wrote a legal paper for which she got
fl. No exorbitant prices wore charged
ior work done, ami tho ladies aro justly
proud of the results of their labors.

Outbreak of Blackleg.
A Frauklin correspondent of the Oil
City Derrick gives the following Infor
mation concerning a disease of rattle
which may be of interest to our farmers
in case of an outbreak in 'his county :
Dr. George B. Jobson, Inspector for the
State Livestock Sanitary board, returned
today from Clarion county, whoro be
vaccinated a herd ol 24 cattle to render
them immune from blackleg. An out
break of this disease recently occurred on
a farm near Turkey City and since then
it seems to have gained quite a foothold
in tbe district lying between Turkey
City and Callensburg, which is near the
Venango county line.
Blackleg, or symptomatic anthrax, is a
germ disease, endemic to certain locali
ties, and is peculiarly fatal to young cat
tle from six months to three years old.
It Is not a contagious disease, that is, one
animal will not contract the disease by
coming in contact with another. The
Blackleg bacillus gains access to the sys
tem through a wound or scratch of the
skin or abrasion of tbe mucous mem
banes, hence pasture lands infested
with briars are particularly favorable to
tbe development of the disease, when
once the bacilli i.uve found lodgotnent in
the soil. Tbe germ, which in technical
language is termod anaerolic, remains in
ert when freely exposed to the oxygon of
the air, but develops rapidly in tissues
underlying tiie skin. Tbe bacilli form
spores, the bard shell-like substance en
veloping the latter, enabling them to re
sist atmospheric hi II nonces of heat or
cold indefinitely, hence young animals
unprotected by vaccination, when turned
out on infected pastures, readily contract
the disease. Blackleg runs a rapid
course, animals apparently all right rue
day may next day be found doad in the
field. The disease is oasily recognized,
Its most frequent local manifestation be
ing swelling ol the hind quarters, although
blackleg tumors may form on otbor parts
of tbe body, never below tbe knee or
hock joints, however. Gas forms in these
tumors, which on boing rubbed by tbe
hand, emit a crackling sound. On being
skinned, the muscles of the parts affected
are dark in color, disintegrated and on in
cision a da.k red frothy fluid exudes
from the cut surfaces. Unlike true an
thrax, blackleg is not transm issable to
man, hence the carcasses of animals dy
ing from tbe disease can be handled with
perfect safety. In order, however, lo
prevent spreading the disease all carcas
ses ought lo be cremated where the ani
mals have died.

It is reported that a preacher in Illi

there is nothing harmful in young
