The right to take private laud and
other property for a private enterprise,
the right of eminent domain as it is called,
is one that ought very rarely to be given
to any citizen or body of citizens. Wben
it should be used for privately owned
enterprises it should be granted Jealously
and with practically the unanimous con
sent of the people. Once given, it can
not be taken away and only for the pub
lic good should this supreme power be
delegated. The demand of tbe promoters
of the scheme to erect dsugerous dsms,
that tbe incoming Legislature grant them
tbe power of eminent domain, is deserv
ing of the prompt opposition of every
citizen. Under the name of "conserva
tion" they pian to seize streams useful
for creating light, beat and power all over
the Commonwealth, make tbem privato
property, take to themselves this great
natural source of wealth, endanger with
suuh dama as wiped out Johnstown aud
Austin, the lives and properties of lhe
publiu'and sit comfortable aud safe while
they get the dividends they can squeezo
from the public. There are many kinds
of legal rascality, but this is a kind which
seeks legality which it does not now have.
Tbe best men of the state will oppose it
with every menus at band and tbe mem
ber of the incoming Legislature who voles
for it votes for his own retirement to
private life. Tbo belter class of news
papers will remain hostile to sny such
project and the Oil City Derrick especial
ly is to be admired aud congratulated, by
the public fur its enterprise in securing
and publishing Inside facts as to this
scheme to wrong tbe people. Frauklin

G. A. R. Post Meeting.
At a special meeting or Capt. George
Stow Post, No. 274, on Tuesday, 12ib
Inst., to consider tbe advisability of dis
banding pursuant to cards sent to the
members, there was a good attendance of
tbe members. It was thought by some
that on account of the decreased mem
bership, caused by migration aud death
of late years, and the consequent light
attejdance, that It would be policy to
discontinue the monthly meetings. This
waa duly considered and after discussion
it was resolved unanimously that we con
tinue as an organization an order which
bas bad its meetings since 1882, sod con
sequently, about thirty years old. Many
other organizations since that time, hav
ing been of a kind of mushroom charao
ter, bave faded away and been lost sight
of, but the Post bas prospered marvel
ously through all these years, thanks to
tbe patriotism, zeal snd efficiency of the
good Woman's Relief Corps, which bas
been a continuous sld and encouragement
to our beloved order. This is appreciated
and understood, and without that aid the
Post would long ago "bave gone where
tbe woodbine twineth." But one spirit
seemed to prevail at tbe meeting that
we must still support the Post and tbe
vote for its continuance was unanimous.
Remarks wore made by most of the
members and officers in attendance, and
tbe burden of lhe song was, "let the good
work go on;" that we were the only Post
now In the county, and thai it was likely
that slnoe tbe disbanding of Berlin Post
at East Hickory soma of the members
might now take it into their heads lo
unite wilb us, as Ihey could c.ime down
ou the 11 train and return on the 3:30 p.
m, train, and fix tbe meeting here at ssy
1:30 p. in. This would be convenient,
snd would In a measure swell our mem
bers and prolong our existence. These
points were all, snd many more, hope
fully, earnestly and ably argued by Com
rade Robinson, Adjutaut Clark, Chap
lain Felt, Q M. Irwin, S. V. Walford, O.
D. Edeu. and Comrades Walters snd
Lindal. All formed and expressed them
selves favorably.
Tbe next regular meeting will be held
on Tuesday, Deo. 3, at 1:30 p. in, at the
Hall. It is an important meeiing, as
then and there will be tbe yearly inspec
tion of the Post, as well as tbe election of
officers for the yeor 1013. It is to be
hoped lhat there will be a full attendance
ou the occasion and be a rally of the
oomrades. Bv a C'omkadb.

resides. His father, mother aud one
brother also survivo, Ibe father being em
ployed at Dahoga, while Ibe mother Is at

tressing affair are about as follows: A
few minutes after 1 o'clock Wednesday
afternoon Maze walked into the Reed
Brothers barber shop and, getting iuto a
chair asked quietly to be shaved. He
talked little to tbe barber who wailed up
on him, and no sign of drink or other un

Proprietor Reed asked him if be had his

"I beg your pardon," said Ms.e, "'.
overlooked it; I waa thinking of soinelh
ing else." He tendered three nickels In
payment. Then he left Ibe shop, and
went across the street to a hardware store
where be purchased a cheap knife which
he used with such terrible effect. In
few minutes be returned to the barber
shop asking iu a low tone if he might
again go to the toilet room ou the Door
below. He was bauded a key, and those
in the shop never gave the subject an
other thought. An hour later, when
Grant Malbewa weut down stairs, he re
turned with a while face aud reported
what he had seen. In a room under Ibe
street, forward from the toilet rooms, aud
used as a slore room, lay tbe body, the
throat cut from ear lo ear, and the head
so .jammed by the fall of tbe body that
the bead bung back, Just about half sev
ered from the trunk.
Mr, Reed telephoned the police and tbe
Coroner, and Chief John Berdine, arriv
ing iu a few minutes, took charge of the
body pending the arrival of the. Coroner,
Tbe man must have been possessed of a
desperate nerve, for two slashes had been
made, tbe second one fevering thejugular
veiu. The suicide had staggered about
five feet after Inflicting the first wound,
sud then, apparently, alter again gashing
himself with bis knife, had fallen on his
face. The loss of blood made the room a
fearful sight.
The man was well dressed in a blue
Bull ol basket weave, wearing a black
working shirt. Iu tbe pockets were found
25 cents in coin, s low cigais, and In tbe
pocket of the shirt a letter addressed to
Albert Maze, Shellield, Pa., care Hart
Henderson Lumber Camp." This was
about the only clue, The merchants aud
maker's label had been removed from a
soft brown list, but tbe suit of clothes bore
the label of Will Kpsteiu, a Shellield
clothier.
The letter waa from a woman signing
the name ''Sadie." The letter had been
mailed on November 2il, and dealt with
private family affairs. It was marked to
be relumed lo "218 llavard Street, K inn,
Pa " and it was in this way that identili-
cation was established.
