MEYERSDALE COMMERCIAL PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY AT MEYERSDALE, PA, K. Cleaver, Editor ‘When paid strictly in advance $1.28 When not paid in advance $1.50 REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR SHERIFF. Amos W. Bauman, who solicits the votes and patronage of the Republican voters for the office of Sheriff at the September Primary was born at Berk- ley’s Mills, near this place; reared on a farm in Northampton township, being a son of Wm. Bauman; enter- ed the profession of teaching at the age of 15; after teaching for a num- ber of terms in the schools of the county, the last as principal of the Garrett schools, he entered the ser- vice of the B. & O. R. R. Co. as agent and operator and continued at that work for a period of 23 years, the last fourteen years of that time be- ing at Somerset, quitting there in 1903. Since hen he has conducted a bakery and restaurant opposite the depot in Somerset. He also conducted a bakery in Meyersdale under the firm name of A. W. Bauman & Son until some time since, he turned the business over to his son, Harry who who is now conducting it in his own name. Mr. Bauman is a man of wide busi- ness experience; he has a warm feel- in for his old home town, Meyers- dale and for the surrounding commu- nity, where he feels he should re- ceive a strong vote. He has a wide | acquaintance all over the county and | there are many warm friends who are pushing his candidacy. If elected to the position he will give his entire time to the duties of his office. Mr. Bauman is a staunch Republican. ST. PAUL. Mr. Jacob Spaugy and family were visiting at the C. J. Engle home over Sunday. Harold G. Baker, a traveling sales- man, was visiting his friend, Miss Blanche Engle on Sunday, The Holy Communion was observ- ed in the Lutheran church at St. Paul on Sunday. Quite a number of our people went to the picnic at Coal Run on Satur- day. Mrs. Tedrow is visiting her daugh- ter, Mrs. C. J. Engle, this week. If you believe in supporting a set of parasites because they are a little more cunning than you, don’t vote for Socialism. If you believe all things that human intelligence has discovered of value, should be used for the uplift of humanity and not for enriching a few people thereby then vote the Socialistic ticket. The capitalists believe the govern- ment should give them a square deal in plucking the rest of humanity. Their quarrels bring nations into war. Under a capitalist form of govern- ment, law is largely a rule among thieves. H. G. L. There will be a lawn fete on the St. Paul Lutheran Church grounds in Saturday evening next. Every body invited. A tornado in the middle west, yes- terday, killed outright twelve persons in Cincinnati, and buried many others jn the collapse of twenty buildings in that city. Much damage was done and lives lost in a number of other places. Call and see our assortment of TEA, and COFFEE, Good loose coffee at 15c pound.

REPORT SAYS THERE WILL BE SMALL FRUIT CROP HERE Apples, pear and quince crops of | only 50 per cent of the average may be expected in the southern half of Pennsylvania, this gear and next. Draw a line through the center of the State, paralleling Mason and Dixon's Line, and you have the stricken ter- ritory. : Pear blight, or fire blight, is the cause. It gets one name, because the pear tree is the easiest victim; it get the other because the trees, upon at- tack, take on the appearance of the leaves having been fire-scorched to a dark brown or black hue. Reports at Harrisburg indicate that the trouble is fully as bad as at first believed, State Zoologist Surface says only remedy is to cut out the disease no matter how much of the tree has been removed; then burn the cut- tings. Prof. Surface believes that 75 per cent of all the pome fruit trees in the southern half of the state are af- fected. GLENCOE.
