The old thing can’t be burried too deep for the public good. SoMmE of the Scullocrats are already charging unfairness, because persons who are known to have voted the Soci- alist and Citizens’ Union tickets, last fall, will be debarred from participat- ing in next Saturday’s Republican primary. What in thunder do they take the Republican party for, anyway? A Republican primary is for Republi- | cans only, and those who have gone after strange gods must first purge themselves and thoroughly cleanse their soiled political linen. They can- not be Republicans only at nomina- tions, and Democrats, Socialists and general political fools at the elections. Any man has a perfect right to leave the Republican party whenever he chooses, but he can’t come back and be in good standing on such short no- tice. The party rules require Republi- can voting at the elections, of those who would participate in Republican cau- cuses and primaries. S8oME of the self-styled “Stalwarts” talk very glibly about the fairness of the primary elections in “the good old days” when the Scull gang had full sway. They must think all the people have poor memories. They evidently forget the time that the Scull gang voted an old horse seventeen times at a certain primary in this borough. The horse was owned by James K. Liven- good, who was a noted Scull ring poli- tician, and other Scull henchmen held the primary. The old horse was pre- sented at the polls seventeen different times, each time under a different name, and eaeh time a Scull ring vote was deposited in the ballot box. When the votes were counted, there were more of them than the entire popula- tion of Salisbury. Those are the kind of primaries the old Scull ringsters are longing for. But Scull horses can no longer vote, and a good many kicking Scull jackasses will also be debarred at the coming primary. Tue old Scull gang does not want to own the men it persuaded to announce for office, namely: Begley, Walker, Wagner, Ankeny and “Edwie” Werner. The Scull organ, the Herald, now re- fers to therm as “the orphans,” and it even ridicules them for being so foolish as to announce. They wouldn’t have announced, had it not been for promises of support made by the Scull gang. The five candidates named were play- ing in a double role, thinkigg they could successfully pose as both Scull and anti-Scull candidates. But they fooled nobody but themselves. The Sculls encouraged them to announce in order to create dissentions in the anti-Scull ranks, but they don’t care who is elected or defeated. It’s another bolt the Sculls are after this year, and when it comes, the old gang will get it where the chicken got the ax. Begley has promised a deputyship to a promi- nent strike leader in Salisbury, and the gentleman has been busy for months telling the strikers what a good friend of theirs Mr. Begley is. But the Salis- bury strike leader isn’t the only fellow claiming to have been promised a dep- utyship under Mr. Begley. Two other prominent strike leaders, one at Hoov- ersville, the other at Garrett, claim to have the same promises from Begley, and they are indulging in the same kind of soft talk to the strikers that is being indulged in by the would-be deputy in Salisbury. “The orphans,” as the Herald calls the five seven-sided gentlemen named, all want to be good anti-Scull men now, and they are send- ing out literature so declaring them- selves. But they will fool nobody but ignoramuses. The people are posted, and they will not rally to the support of the five men who were induced to announce by the bolters. cA A DINNER INVITATION. After a hearty meal a dose of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure will prevent an attack of Indigestion. Kodol is a thorough digestant and a guaranteed cure for Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Gas on the Stomach, Sour Risings, Bad Breath and all stomach troubles. N. Watkins, Lesbus, Ky., says: “I can testify to the efficacy of Kodol in the cure of Stomach Trouble. I was afflicted with Stomach Trouble for fifteen years and have taken six bottles of your Kodol Cure, which - entirely cured me.

Will of Patent Medicine Manufae- turer Filed for Probate. The will of Dr. Peter Fahrney, presi- dent of the Dr. Peter Fahrney Sons Company, manufacturers of patent medicine. was filed in the Probate court to-day. The estate is valued at $3,465,000. The personal property is valued at $2,7000,000, and realty at $765,000. All goes to relatives. To the four sons is left $10,000 each, to be paid to them as soon as possible. The sons are Ezra C., William H., Joshua H., and Emory H. In lieu of the same amount to his daughter, Susan Emory Beachy. the testator left $10,000 to ber husband, Peter A. Beachy. To the widow he gave the homestead, together with its furnishings, horses and car- riages, ete., and a large amount of property, including Chicago real estate and land in Lake county, Illinois. This was in lieu of her dower rights. The rest of the property is to be held in trust for the benefit of the members of the family for twenty-one years. The trustees of the will are empow- ered to vote the stock of the medicine company and in time to form a limited partnership. This will have the effect of keeping the business in the hands of the family. The executors are the four sons.—Chicago Daily News, March 9th, 1905. The above will interest the many friends of Peter A. Beachy, formerly of Elk Lick township, this county. It will also probably eonvince Lou A. Smith, editor of the Meyersdale Commercial, that Dr. Peter Fahrney is really dead. “Lucifer” called the Meyersdale Re- publican down only last week for pub- lishing an announcement of the death of Dr. Fahrney. The old pair of pants that presides over the Commercial de- nied the death of the said well known doctor, and the denial was made in its usual “smart aleck” style; but as usual, “Lucifer” merely made a fool of himself and showed that his paper can always be relied upon to deny the truth and publish false, misleading information. The old fool of the Commercial doesn’t even know that the old corrupt political gang he adheres to is “as dead as a door nail.” “Lucifer” always “shoots off his mouth” before trying to learn facts. . BY THE TONIC ROUTE. The pills that act as a tonic, and not as a drastic purge, are DeWitt’s Little Early Risers. They cure Headache, Constipation, Biliousness. ete. Early Risers are small, easy to take and easy to act—a safe pill. Mack Hamilton, hotel clerk at Valley City, N. D., says: “Two bottles cured me of chronic con- stipation.” Sold by E. H.

There is probably nota bar keeper in Rockwood who does not know that “Micky” Miller is not composmentis, yet he was in a maudlin state of in- toxication Tuesday night, and it is be- lieved he drank at one or more of the local bars to get in that condition. Any man who will sell or give a drin of whisky to such an individual is ae} serving of a more severe panismend) than the law provides. It is quite time that the drunk makers were brought within spy-glass observation of some of the terms of the law, or their licenses revoked.—Rockwood Gazette. Tue STAR is in receipt of a letter from some of the hotel people of Rock- wood, and they declare that the above from the Gazette is not true. Natural- ly, they are quite indignant at the Gazette.

The month of February, 1866, was the most remarkable month in the world’s a January had two full moons, and so had March, but February had none. This had not occurred since the creation of the world, and, according to some astronomers, the same thing may not occur again for a period of 1,500,000 years, but we'll just wait and see. eee A STRIKES HIDDEN ROCKS.
