The above figures show that it was a
grand victory all around in Somerset
county, there being but little differ-
eace in the vote for State, District and
County offices. :
In our two home districts, Salisbury
and Elk Lick, the Republicans carried
everything by pluralities ranging from
36 to 53, except for County Treasurer.
For that office, Harvey Hay, the Demo-
cratic candidate, who is a home man,
carried Elk Lick by one vote and Salis-
bury by 47.
Edward Haselbarth, another home
man, received 65 votes in this borough
and 35 in Elk Lick for Assembly. Mr.
Haselbarth was one of the Prohibition
candidates.
The Socialists, who expected to poll
100 votes in Salisbury and Elk Lick,
fell far short of it. In the borough, 10
Socialist and 3 Socialist Labor votes
were polled, while in the township it
was 20 and 3 for the same tickets. A
lot of Democrats pretended to be So-
cialists in order to decoy Republicans
into voting that ticket, and they suc-
deeded in their scheme, the Democratic
pretenders voting the Democratic tick-
et a usual.

AFTER ELECTION NOTES.
Who is little alex. grof? Yes, who is
he and where is he?
Who is Orran W. Kennedy? He is
the “feller wot get it in the neck, as the
feller says, says he.”
They who laugh last laugh the best.
The Democrats are always confident
and gleeful until after the voters are
counted.
If Harvey Hay could run everywhere
else as he did in Salisbury, the Demo-
crats could easily elect him Governor.
But then—
“Squire” O. W. Boyer still detests the
blanket ballot. Every time he votes it
he swears he will not do it again, but
he doesn’t mean it.
Who said little alex grof was run-
ning for State Senator? If he was, no
one seems to know it. Miller got there
by about 3,000, that’s all.
“Who is Orran W. Kennedy?” He is
the would-be Congressman from Fay-
ette county that came out second best
in the race with a gentleman named
Cooper.
The reason the Prohibitionists did
not poll a larger vote is due to the fact
that they had too many Walkers on
their ticket. They should have had
more runners,
It is plain to seethat the great Amer-
ican people are not yet ready to return
to the Democratic soup house policy.
They still favor Republicanism and the
full dinner pail.
The bolting movement died last year,
but some of the Scullelicks didn’t
know it until they heard the result of
Tuesday’s election. The Sculls can’t
fool many of the Republicans these
days.
Some of the knowing editors in other
states were all along predicting Patti-
son’s election. They will now have a
big lot of explaining to do. Mr. Patti-
son is an old cracked pitcher that went
to the well once to often.
As is always the case, the Democrats
proved themselves very poor political
prophets. A few bullfrogs in a little
mud-puddle can make an awful noise.
The Democrats always count their ma-
jorities before the elections are held.
A very light Republican vote was
polled in Somerset county, but the
Democrats turned out pretty well and
did their level best, assisted here and
there by well known Scull bolters. But
the Scullelick combination was snowed
under just the same.
Now that the election is all over
and the Republicans got everything in
sight, “Nosey” Hostetler, of Meyers-
dale, will have less business in Salis-
bury. [ie only made a fool of himself
by running around in Salisbury elec-
tioneering for Kennedy.
The coterie of Scull henchmen in
this borough, who voted and worked
for the Democratic candidate for Con-
gress, look like 30 cents since Cooper is
elected by a nice majority. The old-
time co-workers of the said henchmen
in most districts of the county behaved
themselves all right this year.
After the 1st of January we will have
a complete set of anti-Scull county of-
ficers. By that time the last vestige of
Scullism will be wiped out at the Court
House and we will have a set of coun-
ty officers that will be a credit to the
county and to themselves. “Lucifer”
may sit in the ex-metropolis and howl
*“Shoberism” until the Casselman runs
south, but it will avail him nothing.
The people have spoken, and the voice
of the people is the voice of God.
“Necessity, the Mother of Inven-
tion.”
“Necessity isthe mother of invention”
was copied in our writing books when
we went to school. The prolonged coal
strike of the past summer has develop-
ed a lot of necessities and a still great-
er quantity of inventions. Up to the
present writing there have been grant-
ed 1,280 patents for using oil as fuel,
and 2,700 letters patent for the use of
gas and vapors. Whether the miner
mines or not the people are going to
keep warm next winter, all the same.
A steamship running between Eng-
land and Borneo uses liquid fuel en-
tirely. Where it was necessary to have
eighteen or twenty firemen when coal
was being used, only three persons are
now required to replenish the fires.
From sixty to one hundred per cent.
more heat is produced from the liquid
fuel, and only half the storage room is
needed. It is made from crude petro-
leum and is non-explosive. In addition
to other advantages the lack of dust
makes a great difference in the cleanli-
ness of the ship.—Ex.

Honors for a Bright Salisbury Boy.
Our young friend Ralph Smith, son
of Mrs. Evora Carr Smith, is one of the
eleven boys who graduated very re-
cently from the Pennsylvania nautical
school ship Saratoga, which arrived in
the port of Philadelphia, last Sunday,
Lieut. Commander Frank E. Beatty, U.
8S. Navy, commanding, with fifty boys
aboard. The return voyage wis a very
stormy one, and the ship arrived at
Philadelphia considerably delayed. In
its account of the return of the Sara-
toga, the Public Ledger says:
“The Saratoga was delayed on her
run home from Funchal, Madeira Is-
lands, by a cyclone and several heavy
gales. When she was sighted coming
up the river in tow of the tug Juno, &
hearty cheer went up from the great
crowd of people—parents, relatives and
friends—who had gathered on the dock
to welcome home the embryo tars.
Every man abroad, from commander
down to galley boy, was well and hearty
and glad to get home. Yesterday peo-
ple swarmed her decks. Delaware ave-
nue, from South to Market street, sel-
dom saw such a sight on Sunday.
Young sailors, their ditty bags filled
with scores of small curios, were sur-
rounded by parents and friends.
The Saratoga left this port on May 6,
for Liverpool, arriving there nineteen
days later. This is considered a very
quick trip, as the ship’s method of pro-
pulsion is entirely by sail.
Forty of the boys had money depos-
ited ‘with Commander Beatty, and
those who desired were allowed leave
to visit Cork, the Lakes of Killarney
and other points of interest. Others
were given shore leave. After a ten
days’ stay, the ship sailed for South-
ampton. There each watch was allow-
ed a week’s leave to go to London.
They were there during the coronation
celebration. While in Southampton
studies were taken up and instructions
in actual navigation given. Two boys
deserted there.
Havre, France, was the next port of
call, and there a piece of unusual navi-
gation was successfully attempted. The
old ship, under a fair spread of canvas,
sailed into the harbor, and, coming in-
to the wind, glided up to her dock with-
out a hitch. Here boys with money,
and who had permission of ther par-
ents were given leave to visit Paris.
Then the ship set sail for Gibraltar,and
the members of the graduating class
were given charge of the deck during
the day. and an exciting time they had.
Stiff head winds prevailed during the
fifteen days, and the boys were kept
busy every minute, tacking ship very
freqently, taking observations, manning
the yards and braces and doing the
hundred and one other duties which
fall to the lot of a sailor. Arriving at
Gibraltar, the English officials did ev-
erything to make their stay pleasant,
even sending a tug to tow the ship to
the best anchorage. Leave was grant-
ed from noon to sundown. Funchal,
Madeira Islands, was the last port to
call.”
It is‘ with much pleasure that The
STAR notes the fine progress our friend
Ralph has made in the study of naviga-
tion, and we firmly believe that he is
sure to beeome a prominent and use-
ful man. We tender him our most
hearty congratulations and best wishes.
What he is doing could be done by
many other young men of this town, if
they only had the get-up to try. We
have too many youngters here who
seem to have no higher ambition than
to be idlers and cigarette stinkers.

Recent Coal Labor Statisties.
The volume of mineral resources of
the United States for the calendar year
1901, now in press, United States Geo-
logical Survey, presents some interest-
ing statistics of the labor in the coal
mines of the country.
From 1898 to 1901, inclusive, the sta-
tistics of coal production were as fol-
lows: In 1898, the average number of
men employed was 401,221, and they
everaged 190 working days during the
year, producing 219,974,667 short tons
of coal, valued at $208,000,850; in 1899,
410,365 men working 214 days produced
253,739,992 short tons, valued at $256,-
077,434; in 1900, 448,581 men working
212 days produced 269,682,827 short tons
valued at $306,671,364; in 1901, 485,544
men working 216 days produced 293,-
298,516 short tons, valued at $348,910,-
469. In 1898, the average price of coal
per ton was 95 cents; in 1999, it was
1.01; in 1900, was $1.14; in 1901, it was
$1.19.
According to the two great divisions
of the coal industry, the bituminous
and the anthracite, the statistics are as
follows: In the bituminous coal indus-
try in 1890, 192,204 men working 226
days produced 111,302,322 short tons,
valued at $110,420,801, an average of
2.56 tons per man per day, and 579 tons
per man per year; in 1895, 239,962 men
working 194 days produced 135.118,193
short tons, valued at $115,779,771, an
average of 2.90 tons per man per day
and of 563 tons per man per year; in
1900. 304,375 men in 234 days produced
215,314,912 short tons, valued at $220,
913,513, or 2.98 tons per day and 697
tons per man per year; in 1801, 340,235
men in 225 days produced 225,826,849
short tons, valued at $237,406,449, or 2.94
tons per man per day and 664 tons per
man per year. The average price of
bituminous coal per short ton in 1890
was 99 cents; in 1895, 86 cents; in 1900,
$1.04; in 1901, $1,05.
In the anthracite mines in 1890, the
number of miners was 120,000, who in
200 days produced 46,468,614 short tons,
valued at $66,383,772, the average pro-
duction being 1.85 tons per man per day
and 369 tons per man per year; in 1895,
142,917 men produced in 196 days 57,-
999,337 short tons, valued at $82,019,272,
an average of 2.07 short tons per man
per day and of 4068 tons per man per
year; in 1900, 144,208 men working 168
days produced 57,367,915 short tons,
valued at $85,757,851, or 2.40 short tons
per man pefday and 398 tons per man
per year; in 1901, 145309 men worked
196 days and produced 67,471,667 short
tons, valued at $112,504,020, an average
production of 2.36 short tons per man
per day and of 4684 tons per man per
year. The average price per short ton
of anthracite coal in 1890 was $1.43; in
1895 it was $1.41; in 1900 it was $4.49,
and in 1901 it was $1.67.
In the last twelve years the number
of workers in the anthracite mines has
increased from 126,000 in 1890 to 145,-
309 in 1901, or over 15 per cent. Dur-
ing the same period the number of men
in the bituminous mines has increased
192,204 to 340,235, or a little over 77 per
cent.
The statistics of accidents in the
mines in the calendar year 1901, already
published in part, show that 1,467 men
were killed, 3,643 men were injured, and
that 188,668 tons of coal were mined for
each life lost. In the bituminous mines
of the country 854 men were killed and
2400 were injured, in a total of 340,235
men at work ; in the anthracite mines
513 men were killed and 1,234 were in-
jured, in a total of 145.309 at work.
The statistics for Pennsylvania alone
show 301 men killed, 656 men injured,
and an average of 273,288 short tons of
coal mined for each life lost in the bi-
tuminous mines; and 513 men killed,
1,243 men injured, and an average of
131,524 short tons of coal mined for
each life lost in the anthracite mines.
It is interesting to note that in Penn-
sylvania the number of short tons of
bituminous coal mined per life lost was
a little more than double the number
of short tons of coal mined per life lost
in the anthracite mines.
One Minute Jough Cure
is the only harmless cough cure that
gives quick relief. Cures coughs, colds,
croup, brochitis, whooping cough, pneu-
monia, asthma, la grippe and a 1 throat,
chest and lung troubles. I got soaked
by rain, says Gertrude E. Ferner, Mun-
cie, Ind, and contracted a severe cold
and cough. I failed rapidly; lost 48
lbs. My druggist recommended One
Minute Cough Cure. The first bottle
brought relief; several cured me. I
am back to my old weight, 48 lbs. One
Minute Cough Cure cuts the phlegm,
relieves the cough at shes, draws out
inflammation, cures crou An ideal
remedy for children. E. H. Miller.

He Could Hardly Get Up.
P. H. Duffy, of Ashley, Ill., writes,
“This is to certify that I have taken two
bottle of Foley’s Kidney Cure and it
has helped me more than any other
medicine. I tried many advertised
remedies, but none of them gave me
any relief. My druggist recommended
Foley’s Kidney Cure and it has cured
me. Before commencing its use I was
in such a shape that I os 1d hardly get
up when once down.” E. H. Miller,
