n u umber of men from the country
came to town afoot, and some of

honpes The blizzard wonld have
been a credit to blizzard ridden Mon
tana. Senator Woods has a bill before
the Legislature that authorizes the
state to purchase and to aanunac con
trol y cridtres across rivers and
atrenms which may have been declar
ed public highways. It seems to be
good common sense ltw, that, if the
state declares a bridge to be a public
high war, that the state should pay
for the bridge and keep it up.
Last Thursday afternoon and even
ing, u light fleecy snow about six
inches deep. fell. About nine o'clock

The handsome fountain on the
sooth side of Court House Square,
gave up to the stress of weather on
Friday, February 8, to the great dis
comfort of the town cows who were
wont to resort there in droves to
to slake tboir thirst. Friday and
S:tnrday were dry days for horses
and cattle in town.
The 8ven Mifflin connty farmers,
who moved a neighbor to what used
to b the Barefoot farm, near Oak
land Mills, thia county, were snow
bound by the late blizzard, till on
Monday when tbey returned home.

drift of snow, every man stepped
out, went forward find cleared the
Wity for teams and eleds.

fowls and killed four of the flock.
Tbey, however, only eecured two of
the dead ducks. Two were drawn
under the ice by the strong current
of water.
Walking was not good on Saturday
and Sunday and Monday, but more
walking waa done on those three

could not be gotton through the
enow drifts, but men could walk over
and around them. Harry Lloyd, a
Jlifflintown Ac.idemy student, walk
ed 8 miles home to Mc 4 linterville on
Satnrdty evening. Some citizens
walked 20 miles over snow drifts to
the lower end of the county.
Owing to the drifting snow storm
last Friday and Saturday, business
in town was at a standstill. The
business places were open, but there
were no customers. Tbey were days
lorg to be remembered. If the
"brrak up of the winter" as it ia call
ed, is half as severe as was 'heetorm
of last Friday and Saturday, the de
struction to property along the
streams will be frightful. However
there is no use of borrowing trouble,
the break up may not come, and the
winter may end in spring to the de
light of all.

propped his feet against a post, and
eight young men failed to pull him

The people of Pennsylvania have
for several years petitioned the atate
Legislature to xe-enact our tax laws
with the view of equalization of taxes,
whilst this was not the exact result
prayed for, yet, it was the means of
increasing the appropriation for our
Public Schools, to five and one half
million dollars.
Now that this has been accom
plished in thua relieving the tax
payer to a certain extent further
legislation baa placed free text books
in our schools, consequently, we have
approached very near to a free school
system. Bnt this ds not relieve us
as citizens of the duty we owe to onr
selvee, to our children and the pub
lic. It is more obligatory still on our
part to make wise and good selection
of those who are the guardians of
our schools, the finances and the se
lection of teachers.
The office of school director should
be eliminated from politics.
Directors should not be chosen for
their political faith nor for a reward
for some menial party service but for
their fitness for the position, they
should be persons who have had ex
perience in school affairs, and know
what the qualifications of the teacher
should be, both intellectual and
moral, they should be progressive,
such as would suffer no retrograding
of our schools, but insist on elevating
them by raising the staudard higher
and higher.
It is doubtful if thia will ever be
done if party loyalty is made the
criterion by which you form your
ballot on election day.
The lawa of Pennsylvania have at
last said that women can be elected
to and serve as school directors of
course without pay.

Tbe storm laat Friday in the Jun.
iata Valley was tbe severest known.
It bas often blown as hard but not
within the memory of men was there
a nWcy snow, six inches deep to be
driven by the wind, but the snow
bit did not extend far west beyond
Mifflin connty, and car travel beyond
that connty was not much obstruct
ed, but east of that travel was dif
tieulL The first passenger train
from the west Atlantic stuck in a
snow drift up to the headlight at Mc
Veytown, but wan dug out and work
ed its way eastward slowly on Friday.
The tarly passenger trait s on Fri
day did not get through westward
bound till Friday about 5 P. M.
Freights were side tracked and stuck
all along the route from this point
east The storm was bard on the
tramps and the stoppage of freight
trains in the Mifflin yard caused
them to seek abetter here at the var
ious warm places about the railroad
and satid house. About 8 o'clock P.
M., six applied to the Commissioners
who were holding a meeting that
evening, for a permit to lodge in the
jail. The hearts of the Commission
era are not made of stone and they
gave them an order on the sheriff for
a night's lodging in jaiL When
Friday morning came the weather
waa worse than on Thursday evening,
and the tramps were Riven shelter in
the Orphan's Court room. Clerk to
tbe Commissioners, W. H. Oroning
er when making out the order for
their lodgment in jail gave them a
short lecture, telling them that if all
people spent their earnings as they
have been doing aa fast as they earn
ed it, no one would have accumulat
ed a fund upon which a tax could be
levied to support such people as they.
One of the tramps made answer, and
said for bis part he intends to reform.
When Friday morning came the
weather was worse than on Thurs
day evening, and the tramps were
turned into the Oiphan's Court room,
and in tbe evening returned to jail,
but. on Sotmday morning, they wt-re
bidden to leave, and left for the rail
road. There was no mail from the east
beyond Harrisburg on Friday, and
ou the evening of that day all orders
for the running of passenger trains
were annulled.
