Saturday's Primaries.
To My that tbe overwhelming land
slide for Roosevelt at the, primaries 1hI
Saturday was a surprise la staling the
case correctly, but to say that a Koose
velt victory that would he veVy decisive
was unexpected would be locorrect, aa
every well-informed person throughout
the slate una been aware of the decided
sentiment for the firmer President lor
weeks past. This sentiment, instead of
waning, actually gathered strength as the
campaign progressed. The result N
bound to have a decided effect upon tbe
campaign for the presidential nomina
tion that yet remains to be fought out,
and If it should turn the tide completely
f t Colonel Roosevelt at the Chicago con
vention it will not surprise tbe American
people. From tbe day that be left the
White House, three years ago the people
the masses have looked forward to the
time wbeu tbey could again put him
bark there, and this, the first opportunity
they bave bad to show their preference,
bss demonstrated what a bold be baa up
on them. Few if any who voted for
Roosevelt on Saturday did so because
tbey distrusted President Taft, on tbe
contrary, moat of them would acknowl
edge the sincerity, honesty and ability of
tbe President, but tbey simply wanted
Theodore Roosevelt as their candidate,
nd it would bave been so bad any other
man occupied the executive chair. It
simply means that ibe Colonel continues
to be America's most popular citizen.
That tbe third term bugaboo bas n ) ter
rors for bis friends is slao demonstrated.
In tbe round-up there was little left to
fibt over, Roosevelt carryiug all but
two or three districts, nettlog him 53 dis
trict delegates ben Ides tbe 12 at-largn
which the state convention will name at
Its meeting on tbe tirst of May, bringing
the total up to 6t.
In Forest county the result is over 3
to 1 in favor of tbe Roosevelt candidates
for National delegates, and almost the
same on tbe stale delegate, Mr. Ledebur
having 601 votes to Mr. Carringer'ss 180.
In the Congressional contest Mr. Speer
leads Gen. Hulings by 9(1. On tbe As
sembly question Mr. Mechliug won out
over Mr. Campbell by 204 majority.
About the warmest contest in this
couDty wss that developed in the Demo
cratic camp between tbe Hall and anti
Hall faction, and from present Indica
tions ibe Hall men won out, electing
John T. Carson of the borough delegate
to tbe state convention, aud Leo. F. Keat
ing of Marienville county chairman.
The question as to who was nominated
for Assembly on the Democratic ticket
must be determined ty the official coont
which will be made by tbe county com
missioners today. So many of the re
turns were sealed that it was impossible
to get a correct estimate of how tbe vole
went between J. L. Simmons of Kellett
ville, and P. C. Hill of Tionesta, both of
whom were voted for and at last accounts
Mr, Hill was two votes ahead.
Congressman Speer Itc-nominated.

Exterminate The fly.
Karl de Scbweinitz, executive secretary
of the Pennsylvania society for the pre
vention of tuberculosis, says that now is
the time to begin the fight against the
bouse fly. For every fly that yon kill
this month you will reduce tbe fly popu
lation in the summer by several billions.
One fly on an average Isya In a season
twelve sets of eggs. At tbe lowest esti
mate sixty flies are hatched from each
laying. It is fair to say that 60 per cent,
of the eggs batched will be females. Each
female will in turn batch sixty flies.
These will beget others, so that in one sea
son a single fly will by a most conserva
tive count bave produced seven billions
of flies.
Just as tbe bee gathers pollen from the
flowers on its legs, does the fly collect
germs. Typhoid fever, tuberculosis, and
many other diseases are carried In this
wsy from the sick room to your home.
Wherever there is filth there the fly
swarms. The fly which lights upon your
lips may menace your lite with disease
germs. The flies that buzz about your
kitchen or your dining room may literal
ly be poisoning your food. Aa a matter
of self preservation, therefore, s'art right
now to kill the solitary flies which, ir
given a chance, will beget Lilliona or
their kind.
Sheriff Charles C. lloman, who gets
around the county as much as anybody
else, is loud in his praises of the roads in
Rockland township, the good condition
of which is due to the fact that a King log
drag is used with intelligence. The
Sheriff says that tbe roads in most other
townships (where no work is done on
them until May) are in bad condition.
The King drag results in the ruts in the
spring being tilled with the loose dirt of
the road, and in a short time they are
hard. Sheriff Uouian says the road of
ficials ol other townships could got valu
able bints from those In Rockland.
Franklin News. The foregoing applies
with equal force to all country roads.
Were the supervisors in each tnwnshin
to provide themselves with one or two of
these com aratively inexpensive drags,
anil at tbia season of the year, before the
roads become hardened and baked, use
them judicionsly the good roads problem
would be more tban half solved in every
district, and a great saving of expense
later in tne spring wouni be accom
plished. These feels bave been so oflen
demonstrated in the past that it would
seem to he unnecessary to point them out
at each recurring season. Why no not
the tax payers in tbe townships Insist
upon their officials adopting these com
uiun sense methods T

WORLD'S GREATEST SEA HORROR.
Feared That 1200 Lives Are Lost When
the Big Steamer Titanic
Sinks.
New Yobk, April 15.-More than 1,200
persons, it is feared, sank to dealb early
today, when within four boura after
she crashed into an iceberg, the rosin
motb White Star line steamer Titanic,
bound from Liverpool to New York, on
her maiden voyage, went to tbe bottom
off the Newfoundland Banks. Of tbe
approximately 2.200 persons on board the
giant liner, some or them of world-wide
prominence, only 866 are known to bave
been saved. According to the fiist wire
less message received from the Titanic
she struck tbe iceberg at 10:25 Sunday
niubt, twelve hundred and forty-eight
miles east of Sandy Hook, X. Y. The
White Star line offices in New York,
while keeping up hope to the lant, were
tree to admit there bad been "horrible
loss or life."
While tbe fate of the majority of the
2,200 persons on board the mammoth
vessel still remsin in doubt, and it is
feared more than 1,200 were lost, a note of
good cheer came from the ocean waya by
wireless between 1 and 2 o'clock Tuesday
morning. It was in tbe shape of a wire
less message from the White Star liner
Olympic, one of tbe vessels hovering
near the scene of the disaster, flisbiug tbe
news that 866 of the Titanic'a passengers,
mostly women and children, were being
brought to port by the Cunarder Carpa
tbia. Other messages later brought con
firmatory tidings.

Two new families bave lately moved
into the pleasant village of Minister
Finks and Barrs, and tbe strange part of
it Is tbsl they live side by side. Finks
bsve four school children and bave prom
ised to send tbem to school this week,
Tbe little Barrs are too young to go.
F. A. Llttlefield and Earl Downey
served on tbe election board at Lynch
Saturday afternoon, and walked borne af
ter the votes were counted, arriving bere
close to midnight.
Thomas Miller baa erected a new fence
around bia lot and it looks fine. He was
assisted by Claude LittleQeld.
Last week tbe wind caught tbe foot
bridge just right and after it soared up
toward the sky as far as the wires wonld
permit, it came down and tbe strain was
too great for the anchor on tbe east side
and a ring broke releasing two wire ca
bles. This put tbe bridge on its edge
snd made it impassable. Our red bout
was launched and tbe traffic taken care of
until tbe bridge was repaired, two days
after the break. Thomas Miller was on
the east side when the wind came and
was in the act of starting over when tbe
bridge soared upward.
Claude Litilefield and O. E. Rupe t
went to Kellettville Friday night to assist
in tbe play "The Prisoner of Auderson
ville" by The Msyburg Dramatic Club.
They report it a very good play and well
rendered by tbe club, which is belug
complimented by all who hear It. Tbe
Kellettville audience was very much in
terested while the play was going on, and
tbe club received many congratulations
after tbe play. The only drawback waa
tbe scarcity of music, between acts, all
caused by the pianist being absent and
there was no time to get another one in
line.
There were only a tew of tbe voters at
tbe election held at Lynch from this place
as all were busy.
The younger element are adjusting
their fishing tackle to try for the speckled
beauties this week. We are hoping that
tbey will not take short fish, for exper
ience has taugLt us that they are costly.
Two of our friends bave been soaked for
more tban a hundred dollars within tbe
last three years. Verily some of us could
not stand a crack like that with potatoes
so high.
O. E. Rupert went to Blue Jay last Fri
day to meet Norman aud Bert Gilbert,
two former Gusher boys. "Norm" used
to play the violin, with Rupert at the
piano, for the natives of that place. Mr.
and Mrs. E. A. Wolfe, and Mrs. A. Show
ers and daughters were there. Tbey all
went to tbe residence of D. L. Bean and
played the same old tunes ss in Ibe daya
of yore. It was fine and look us all back
twenty years, when we were all there at
Gusher and enjoying life with few cares.
Miss Olive Blum Spent Sunday with
tbe girls at Kingsley and had a fine visit,
coming up in time to take up her studiea
on Monday morning.
We bave a very good school here this
winter, having two moms, thus giving
the teachers a better chance to handle so
many pupils, which If all were in one
room, would make a bad mixture, as tbe
teacher would have to miss some classes
one day and miss another next in order
to handle tbem.
Advice to Lawyer.
To a counsel arguing before him at
Clerkenwell (Eng.) county court.
Judge Edge remarked: "Let me tell
you a story of a case in which as
counsel I appeared before Mr. Justice
Mellor. I had used my strongest ar
guments, and thinking I was not con
vincing him I used some weak argu
ments afterward. Mr. Justice Mellor
said to me: 'Now Mr. Edge, don't put
too much water in your brandy.' "

A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
In tbe year 1899, Charles Best of Pol
lock, Pa., was accidentally shot in the leg
near the ankle. Six inches or the smaller
bone was removed from the leg, leaving
bim lo a serious condition. Two doctors
insisted on amputating the leg. Mr.
Best said: "No, I will try ASIATIC
BALSAM tirst." Three bottles healed
the wound entirely in two weeks time.
ASIATIC BALSAM la tbe wonder of tbe
age for healing Cuts, Burns, Scalds and
Frost-biles and bas stood tbe test for 30
years. Try it for Muscular Soreness or
Stiffened Joints on man or beasl; for
h or bps' Sore Shoulders, Sore Backs,
Kicks or Cuts. Progressive Liverymen
snd farmers keep Asiatio Balsam on baud
for the many injuries their stock is liable
to. It never fails. Try it and be con
vinced. Mr. J. L. Findley, proprietor of tbe
Ford City, Pa., livery stables, says under
dateofl892: "We bad a lame horse be
come entirely useless. We tried every
thing under tbe sun to cure this lameness
and failed; we considered tbe horse a
total loss. Weisfield'a Asiatio Balsam was
recommended to us. After using a short
time ail lameness disappeared and the
horse was entirely well. I consider It
my duty to recommend Asiatic Balsam to
all horse owners."
Mr. H. T. Farley, livery and sales
stable owner, of Kitlanning, Pa , says;
"After giving your Asiatio Balsam a trial
I find it tbe beat remedy for Cuts or
Bruises I bave over UBed. One of my
men while clipping a horse bad his lip
cut entirely through. We applied tbe
Balsam which healed the cut almost im
mediately. One of my horses received a
deep cut on his leg, lamelng him badly,
A few applications or your Balsam re
moved the lameness and healed the cot In
a very short time."
Mr, F. K. Weaver, of West Penn Junc
tion, writes under date of Jan. 1, 1899:
"I have used Asiatic Balsam for year
and it is the best remedy for cuts, burns
and brusies known. It Is healing, reliev
ing the palus without smarting. I have
always kept a bottle on band,"
Pollock, Pa., April 14, 1910.-" We con
sider Asiatio Balsam a world beater for
all cuts, burns and sores on man or
beast." Host Brothers.
Mr. B. Steigner, of Herman, Pa.,
writes: "My son Christian, aged 12, fell
from a tree, striking on a broken bottle,
cutting a gash in his foot four Inches in
length and lo the bone. We used Asiatio
Balsam, three bottles ol which healed the
wound sound and well In two weeks."
We are placing Asiatio Balsam on sale
lo all stores. If your dealer doua not

a ready sale for it when once used.
