The Myersdaule Commercial appears to be a quite apt medium through which all sorts of rattle-brains are con- tinuously assailing either the editor or correspondents of Tie Star, but luckily one of these “smart alecks,” Quay 11, as he chooses to call himself, got his just desserts at the ready pen of bro her “Pat,” of Niverton. Not with silly, meaningless vapor ings like the Pipe Line scribes’, but with well founded and substantial truths did “Pat” meet the foolhardiness of his pugnacious assailant. He has my congratulations for the same. Oh, yes, we know just about how sore the little gang up the river feels yet from the primary, last spring, when their ring-candidate for committeemun was so gloriously defeated by the anti- Scull candidate; but let them take warning in time, that their wailings, threats and abuses will not help their lost cause, but rather weaken the al- ready feeble chances of their eager po- litical aspirants for office. We know also how this little venge for their ima clique sought re- ned grievances by bolting parts of the Republican ticket | at the last township election, something few of the so-called Stalwarts hesitate to do. We are onto their deceitful political maneuvers, and cordially invite their other aspiring candidate for the com- mitteemanship to the front, and we warrant the appropriate medicine shall be freely administered. In conclusion, the ringsters do not want to discuss the meaning of “stal- wart,” for they are well aware of the fact that their own principles plainly declare them anything and everything but stalwart Republicans.

IT the pollution had | occurred in the vicinity of Cumberland, the matter would have been plain, and no explanation necessary. The pulp mill would have been held responsible. —Qalkland Republican. We do not think Mr. Livengood claims that his sugar water is being po- luted by mine drainage, but think that is probably the case with the water in the spring run near his camp. Sugar camps are usually built near a spring or small stream, so that water can easily be obtained for cleansing kettles, pans, buckets and other vessels used in sugar-making. When these streams or springs are contaminated with mine drainage or other poluted matter, it will be seen at a glance that the sugar maker is greatly handicapped and an- noyed.

Andrews for a Republican Legislative nomina- tion in Allegheny county is a result of the primary elections of last Saturday which every conscientious Republican in the State can regard with honest satisfaction. It isa triumph of decency in politics and a wholesome condemna- tion of the worst methods of Quayism which have for years debauched the party. This occurred in a district which has always been obedient to Mr. Quay’s de- mands. It was represented in the last Legislature by two members who look- ed to Mr. Quay for their orders on all questions instead of to their constitu- ents, and that constituency has now as- serted its own right to be represented by nominating two candidates who will not only not take orders from Mr. Quay, but are uncompromisingly opposed to him, to his election to the United States Senate, and to the methods of Quayism. Nor is the result in the other dis- tricts of Allegheny county less gratify- ing. Inevery district where there was a contest the candidates of Quayism have been beaten. There are fifteen Republican members of the lower house from that county and four Senators. At the last session eleven members and three Senators—a total of fourteen— went into the Quay caucus and after- ward voted for Mr. Quay for United States Senator. Four members and one Senator refused to be bound by the snap caucus, and at no time voted for Mr. Quay. The result of Saturday’s primaries is the nomination of thirteen anti-Quay members and two anti-Quay Senators, which with one hold-over Senator will make sixteen of the nineteen Republi- cans from the counly opposed to Quay- ism, leaving only three votes out of the whole delegation for Mr. Quay, and one of these, Senator Muehlbronner, will justly be regarded as very uncertain to go that way until some authoritative Jurroughs, Tedrow, at Kingwood— J. B. ’ | declaration is made by him on the sub- ject. In the coutest against Andrews he took his place with the friends of decent polities. Itis even possible that the whole Aliegheny delegation may be united when the time comes. The good effect of the Allegheny re- sult cannot be overestimated. It means not only a delegation nearly unanimous against Mr. Quay, but equally unanimous for decent legisla- tion, for honest laws, fcr honest elec- tions, and for measures intended for and not for special and personal inter- ests. The Allegheny Republicans have done the Commonwealth an important service.— Philadelphia Press, : - Thz Kind of Trash You Find in Every Town. Every town has its workers and its drones. Go where you will, into any town you please, and you will find sev- eral classes of people. You will al- ways find some people trying to im- prove the community in which they live. They speak well of their town to strangers, and they patronize their lo- cal paper and the other legitimate business institutions of the community. Such people are the bone, sinew and life’s blood of the communities in which they live, and but for them their re- spective communities would be fit only for the beasts of the field and the birds cf the air. But there is also another class to be found in nearly all communities, and the extent to which this class some- times handicaps and retards the prog- ress of a town is equaled only by the tontempt the better class of people have for such trash. Tor instance, there are the croakers that are always cursing the trusts, but who nevertheless engourage the trusts all they can by buying their goods from the city catalogue houses. They do not patronize home merchants, be- cause they are afraid the home mer- chants might squander their money paying local taxes, supporting the churches, maintaining public improve- ments, ete. And whenever strangers are around they delight to tell what a poor town they live in, and how much S. [.

Pappy a LTT, better all the neighboring towns are. They also like to “shoot off” their big fool moutks about the home paper, and the more they owe the home paper on subseription, the more they delight to criticise and abuse it. When in need of a little printing they do not patron ize the printer, but write out their no- tices and stick them up in the post-of- fice. 1f the people can’t read them, the writers of the same, of course, ex- pect the postmaster to tell what they are. Then there is the “Cheap John” bus- iness man who sends to a“ Cheap John” printer to get his stationery printed. He expeets the home people to buy kis wares when in need of anything in his line, but when Ze wants anything, he f:els that he should spend as little morey at hone as possible, and so it goes, because this is a queer world, and in the language of Shakespeare, “What fools these mortals be.” It isn’t so very long ago that two big, overgrown croakers were airing them- selves in one of the stores concerning Tine Star. As might be expected, the airing was done behind the editor’s back, for that is the only way cowardly deadbeats sail into a man and his yri- vate business. Both of the croakers re- ferred to owe Tire Star money which they are too dishonest to pay, and that is their chief grievance against the pa- per and its editor. One of them is a degenerate son of a noble father, while the other is a degenerate all-around son-of-a-gun, and has the reputation of having stolen more chickens than any other man in this part of the country. But such is life, and the average edi- tor doesn’t care any more for such peo- ple, their opinions and their friendship than he does for the friendship of a yel- low dog. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad the First Railroad to Introduce Au- tomobile Service. The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad has established electric automobile ser- vice at Washington, D. C., in connec- tion with its train service, being the first railroad to introduce this mode of transportation regularly to and from its railway station. The Automobiles are of the latest electric pattern, absolutely noiseless in regard to machinery and running gear. They are provided with luxuriously deep cushioned seats, with electric lights and time pieces. Two small trunks can be carried on the supports at the rear of the vehicle, and the top of the cab provides ample room for small traveling bags and hand luggage. The splendid streets of Washington are particularly favorable for this high- class transportation, and the vehicles can in safety reach a speed from ten to fourteen miles an hour on any of the streets, excepting in the business por- tion. It has been arranged, when special service is desired, passengers on trains approaching Washington from the East will notify conductor before arrival at Baltimore, and on trains from the West will notify conductor before arrival of train at Washington Junction. The rates for this extraordinary ser- vice are extremely reasonable, and the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, with its ad- vanced ideas and methods, is to be con- gratulated in being the first to inaugur- ate regularly this latest invention in transportation seryige.

The scil in Passaic county, New Jersey, is identical to that of de ‘Ménetiz, Speer’s New Jersey Vineyards are situated in the Passaic valley below the mountain range and the grapes are carted to the winery in the town of Passaic where they are mashed between rollers made of rubber, which do not break the seeds, and made into wine. These grand wines of Speer’ s that have mellowed in flavor in the course of years of ripening, are the choicest wines in this country and can only be obtained by paying a price that is higher than new wines from western vineyards. Mr. Speer deems it necessary fer a healthy wine that it be allowed years to mature in wood to get rid of its coarse parts; with this object he® keeps his wines several years in fumigated cellars and frequently racks before bottling or offering for sale. The reputation of Speer’s wines as a valuable medicine and family oe extends around the world. g=7 "Grocers and Druggists sell Speer’s Wines and Brandy.
