DOUBLE WEDDING.
Johnson-Keim ana Beachy-Kelm the Con-
tracting Parties. 4
A very preity double wedding took
place in the German Baptist church, in
thistown, Wednesday evening, Sept 28th,
1892, at 8 o'clock. The contracting par-
ties were Mr. Allison D. Johnson, ofthe
firm of Cloggett & Johnson. of Union-
town, Pa. and. Miss Lucinda: B. Keim;
Mr. Richard Beachy, of Salisbury, and
Miss Mary E. Keim. The brides are sis-
ters and are both daughters of our es-
teemed fellow townsman, Mr. John J.
Keim, The ceremony took place in the
Audience room of the church, which was

with evergreens and flowers. In front

lighted and presented a handsome appenr-
nce.
Long before the hour of the cere-
mony the church was filled with friends
and relatives, and at as nearly 8 o'clock
as is possible on such eccasions, the brid-
al party entered thie ehurch to’ the time
of the wedding march. Miss Emma Liv-
RB engood presided at the organ and rendered |
the muaic in the able and correct manner
for which she is noted. The party was
d by the wehers, who ere followed

the maids of honor, flower girls and
bridal couples. A position was taken
under the evergreen by the party, the
contracting parties standing beneath the
flower bell. The picture was a pretty
one and will long be’ remembered by
those present. Rev. Silas: Hoover per-
formed the ceremohy in a creditable and
impressive manner. When he had pro-
nounced them man and wife, the happy
couples, attended by the bridal party,
drove at once to’ the beautiful Rome of
the brides, where a reception was held.
An attempt to describe the costumes worn
on such occasions is generally more or
less a failure. Therefore, suffice to it say,
that on this occasion the brides and their
attendants wore dresses of handsome and
costly white material and carried lovely
bouguets of roses, and looked as pretty
-a8 any bride could wish.
A large crowd attended thie reception
and all showered congratulations and
wishes of future happiness on the happy
young people. An elegant lunch ‘was
served at 10 o'clock P. M., and a little
later the Salisbury cornet band tendered
a serenade.
drove to Meyersdale, where Mr. and Mrs.
Jolinson took a train for the East, to be
gone about ten days, to visit New York,
Boston and other cities and places of in-
terest. Mr. .and Mrs. Beachy wereunablé
to accompany them, owing to the serious
illness of Mr. Beachy’s sister. On their
return home Mr. and Mrs. Johnson will
live in Uniontown and Mr. and’ Mrs.
Beachy will reside in Salisbury.
"It would be impossible to name all the
folks of this vicinity and county who’ at-
tended this wedding. but we will mention

“EDITORIAL Ri RERFRKS,
Falled to Get the New Bridge.-Jurors that
Deserve a Coat of Tar and Feathers.-
The South of the County Very
Lindignant: ©
If ever an outrige was committed upon
the tax payers of Elk Lick township and
Salisbury borough. it was at the last term
of court, when a lot of narrow-minded
Grand jurors rendered a verdict against
granting a bridge to connect Salisbury
and West Salisbury, at the foot of Union
street. No stronger petition aver went
into court for a bridge—none with so
many names of heavy tax payers and re-
spectable citizens; but “because there
were a lot of narrow-minded: ignoramus:
es on the jury, men (if they can be called
men) who seem to be too ignorant and
selfish to see beyond their own selfish in-
terests, the effort for the bridge was use-
less. 1
First, to show how much a bridge at
the said place would be appreciated, the =
citizens subscribed the sum of $207 to-
ward its erection. Then, when
amount was subscribed and nearly every
man in the community signed the petition,
it was sent to court. The court then an:
pointed several intelligent men to act as
viewers. These viewers found such a
bridge necessary and reported to that ef-
fect. And last of all, a number of the
leading citizens of Salisbury and Elk Lick
.
‘went beforé the Grand Jury, and on their
oaths testified to the necessity of a bridge
at said place, and that shouid it be erected
there would be at least 200 persons cross
But all this was of no avail, =
it daily.
for there were just enough blooming
idiots on the Grand Jury to defeat the ef:
A narrow-minded ignoramus al-
ways imagines he is acting smart when
he ignores the petitions of men whom he’
Knows to be his superiors in intelligence ’
and honor. It looks as though selfish
motives actuated every juror who voted
against the bridge, and had every one of
them who voted that way been rotten:
egged and drummed out of tawn to the
tune of the ‘‘Rogues March.” a sigh of
satisfaction would have gone forth from
the breasts of hundreds of respectable
citizens and heavy tax payers. 4
Before going any further, however.
we will inform our readers that none of
the jurors from here voted against the
bridge, for they are conscientious men
and therefore were bound to vote for it.
We have it from a prominent Somerset
man that this jury was dominated by
one Philip Walker, who is represented to
us as a farmer of the Calamity kind. a
very arbitrary man and one who seems
to consider that the farmer is most out-
-rageously treated hy the rest of mankind,
and that the taxes ave paid altogether by
the farmers and that they could not af.
ford to build a bridee for the towns. As
to whether Mr. Walker is justly acensed.
we know not; but if he is, he ought to
be placed in charge of an ass drover that
would drive him ont of the county.
Elk Lick township, since its mineral is
assessed, pays more fax than any other
township in the county. The Standard
Extract works alone pavs upwards of
$300 taxes annually. But notwithstand-
ing all this, itis hard to get a bridge in
the South. of the county, while in the
Northern part, which is not near so pop-
ulous and pays much less tax, it seems an
small matter to get a bridge, no matter
whether tliere is any necessity for it or
not. It is about time that this state of
affairs is changed.
Owing to a jury composed too largely
of nonentities, this matter must now rest
a full year before we can again ask for
viewers. This being the case, at least
two years must clapse before a bridge
can be built. In the meantime, several
hundred miners and other workmen wil!
either have to go several miles ont of their
way to go to their work. or else annoy
M. J. Beachy by taking a nearer cut and
running all over his farm. Muanv team-
sters will also have to be inconvenienced.
It is an outrage, a damnable outrage,
There were eleven intelligent and frir-
minded men on the Grand jury, ‘who
voted for the bridge, and it was defeated
by one vote. To the eleven men who
voted favorably, the citizens of this place
tender their thanks. for they showed that
they were not prejudiced ignoramuses
and that they wanted the tax payers here
to have justice.
GEORGIA stump-speakers should always
provide themselves with disinfectants.’
