Speaking on the proposition to change the date for holding primary elections tbe Punxsutawney Spirit voices our senti ments, and we believe those of nine tenths of the voters In tbe rural districts, as follows: Senator Tustin bas introduced a bill which provides for tbe boldingof primary elections during tbe year in which mu nicipal elections are held, in October in stead ot June. If this bill passes it should at least contain a provisco that tbe law shall not take effect during tbe present year. In many counties of the State candidates for county offices have their campaigns well under way, and have al ready done considerable preliminary work and gone to some expense, that would be rendered Dugatory, and it would not be fair to them to postpone the primary until October. Anyhow we doubt tbe wtBdoni of placing tbe primary and general election so close together, for the reason tbat little bitterness and ani mosities are Invariably aroused In con testa for nominationa tbat should bave time to heal. Three weeks or a uiontb is Dot long enough interval between the two elections. Political sores would still be in tbe acute stage, and might mean disaster for some of the nominees. Time is the best emollient. It soothes all pain and heals all wounds. This may not cut much figure in the cities where the people do not get wrought up over primary con tests, but it is Important in tbe rural counties. June may be a little too early, but to postpone the primaries uulil Oc tober would be going to the other ex treme Aw effort is agaiu making In the legis Jalure to abolish the Stitte police. This wholesome law has been in vogue several years and should remain on the statutes. It has proved a menace to evil-doera only and as a rule tbe best citizens are strongly In favor of It, The law has been a pro tActiou to those communities which would lie wholly without any adequate way of handling tbe lawless element, and to re peal it at this time, Just when it Is becom ing tbe most effective, would seem al most like a crime. BEAUTIFUL COOKSBURG. As Mr. Truman Pictures It When Transferred Into State Park. Brookvllle Republican. The idea of making a state preserve of the properties owned by our friends tbe Cooks, at Cooksburg, is cortaluly one of great wisdom and one ol good taste. To preserve at least one specimen for future generations to feast their eyes up on of our once mighty forests Is an ex cellent conception, and should tne t with lavor by our people both far and wide. Even in tbia locality, the recent center of what but recently was tbe II nest pine timber region in the world, we have adults that bave never aeen, not only a pine forest, but even a single specimen of tbe original pine It seems to one of my aue, who baa witnessed thedisappearance of more than 90 per cent, of our forests, really aa if tbe earth hud suddenly opened and swallowed them. A beautiful forest of grown timber is one of tbe grandest sights in all this world to gaze upon, and confining one thoughts to the limits of our own state, and knowing that practi cally every tree, excepting those on the Cook estate, are doomed to early destruc tion, the thought of Having trom extinc tion some hundreds of acres, in one grand body of woods In all Its primeval gradeur is a work of art, and coming from one whose age bas passed four score years is a splendid example of real altruistic genius, a quality ol mind almost as rare in our midst as is tbe old-time forest. The preservation of CooKsburg and its lovely environment of forest, means even more than that generations yet unborn will pome to see at least one spot where nature in woodland still revela, but those grand old lulls and woods, the valley through which the Clarion river Hows, would coriie to be knon as the Adirondack ol Pennsylvania the beauty spot of tbe state; and would attract thruuithout our delightful summer sea sons thousands of people bent on seeking health and recreation and repose, and to wander at will through all tbe pristine glory of ancient trees. The purchase by the stste would mean that Cooksburg would be to Pennsylvan a aa tbe Yellow stone Park is to the nation; It would be come the state's great play ground. And although not so vast aa the Yellowstone, and not possessed of its geyser wonders nor its snow clad mountain peaks, Cooks burg would fascinate you and learn you to love its associations; while one tour ol the National Park usually satisties one's Inclinations lor seeing it for all times. II Cooksburg is to become a park and a playground for the slate, I picture tbe two elegant homes of tbe Cook bro'hera being enlarged and converted Into bote's, and these, together with others, will be used by those who may go perhaps to take one stroll through the woods to learn of this regiou's former greatness, and lor others who will to for longer periods. Winding driveways will be made throughout tbe park, and these will be driven over by those seeking the pleasure and charms of the woodland beauty. Lovers in the course of years will m-ke well defined pathways leading into the deeper recesses and where the foliage density makes the penetration of the sun's raya Impossible, and here is where many who bave not yet entered into be ing, will make their betrothil vows. The lawns surrounding the homes are the work of a landscape gardner, and the lines of maple trees, beautiful even now, will grow in size and grandeur for cen turies to come. Added to all these capti vating charms of both art and nature one must carry their dreams further and picture the river hackwatered, aud on tbe bosom ol its waters e pleasure craft and to bear the clicking ot the petrol engines in their propelling action. You may call this a dream indeed, and so it may seem to those only fam'liar with our common surroundings. It is rigbt and proper that the state should purchase Cooksburg for the purpose of perpetuating a grand old relic, and hav ing done so, it should take just such ac tion as the Washington government took In making the Yellowstone Park a pre serve for tbe world to go and see. To ac complish Ibis and to carry out in minia ture what tbe government baa done in the Yellowstone, carriage drives and bridle paths would be made to cover tbe grounds. A small government force would bave to be maintained to protect the wooda from timber depredators, and to keep such order as the law would pre scribe. The building of a dam to make and extensive backwater would add greatly to the place aa a resort. Tbe hotels could be leased, and also the right given to tbose wishing to conduct alivery business throughout the season Should all tbia come to pass, as I believe it will, tbe state's attention would be called to tbe necessity and importance ol greatly im proving the road betweeu Brookville and Cooksburir. Aud if one may I titerj not in to all this just one bit of commercialism, the tratlio to and Irnm the points named, would tend to briug a considerable amount of grist to our hotels. Through the loveliness and grandeur of nature, combined with the worasof man, Cooksburg is to the regiona which sur round it as is Venus in tbe starry con stellation of tbe heavens in her supreme brilliance over all tbe stara. alfrkd Truman. Wilis Hill. Clare Price, youngest son of Mr. and Mrs, Charles Price, is quite seriously ill at this writing. Dr. Detar, of Kellett ville, is attending the boy and we hope for a speedy recovery. Mislortuue will belall Ibe best of us, as we Jus learn of tbe lact tbat Dr. E. W. Smith lost bia only cow on Sunday, tbe 19th inat. Tbe cause of death was un known. Some have concluded that bossy was tired living. An effort is being made by bis neighbors to present him with an other cow to replace the one be so sorely repines tbe loss of. Mr. and Mrs. J, H. Sbunk attended the quarterly meeting at Mayburg over tbe Sabbath. Rev. F. M. Fox will preach at Town Line F. M. church next Sunday, tbe 2tiib, at 11 a. in. Charlie Killer is intending to leave our bill in the near future. Sorry to lose any of our old boys, ANOTHER CORRESPONDENT. Bad weather and bad roads are on band again. While tbe roads are rough and almost impomible to travel on, ev erything seems to be running smooth. Some of the farmers of this vicinity are talking of ordering a car of lime direct from headquarters at a great saving, per haps ?2 00 or better per ton. As timothy seed is up to 10.25 and clover seed $10.50 a busbel, a saving on tbe lime would buy your grass seed. William Weingard, of Tionesta, is busy moving bia goods to bis borne on the hill. We are glad to bave biui iu our midst aiiain. Considerable changing around on tbe hill this spring. Tbe two younger Kiffer boys bave bought the old Kiffer home stead.

The reason lor tbe sudden move In that direction may be found in the fact that Germany, always jealous of the United States, was contemplating similar action, which would have torn the Monine Doctrine to shreads aud caused no end of complications, A message was given to the newspapers by the German foreign office in Berlin, to the effect tbat if German interests were men- seed in Mexico, Germany would take action without the least delay. It was tbat message tbat caused tbe United States to got busy.
