TO THE DREAMER.
Dreamer, lift the veil that covers all
the weary years;
Can you wend your fancy backward
over hills and vales of tears
To the dreamland, to the boyland, half
forgotten long ago;
Can you tell if boys of nowtime know
the joys we used to know?
Does the rustle of the trees, the rippling
brook, remain the same—
Do the boys that run barefooted sigh
for worldly wealth and fame?
Does the dusty road stretch winding
over acres broad and sweet—
The same old road I used to plod with
stained and stone-bruised feet?
The meadows, are they just as sweet, I
wonder, to the boys—
I mean the boys of nowtime—do they
find their sweetest joys
Romping thro’ the fragrant blossoms,
tangled vines, and shaded nooks—
Or is that sort of pleasure now confined
to story books?
The boyhood days—ah, dreamer, they
are sweet, but O, so brief,
So fleeting are their vagrancies—then
sorrowing and grief
Come, mantlelike, upon our brow,
a-dampening our joys—
But we ean keep a-dreaming them—the
days when we were boys.
CITY SOAP WORKS} Monmouth; Ii. §
THE races at Meyersdale drew a
large crowd on July 4th, as usual, and
as usnal we hear the same amount of
bowling against the unfairness shown
there. People swear and declare that
they will never go there again, just as
they do each succeeding year, but we.
take notice that they always hie them-
selves away to be faked again at the
very next opportunity. Anyway, what
is a race track for if it isn’t to gkin and
fake people? They're all about alike,
and the man who goes to the average
race track to witness honesty and fair
play is not going to the proper place.
Might as well look for virtue in a house
of prostitution as for honesty and fair
play at a race track. There never was
a blowout in Meyersdale of any kind
that was worth going two inches to see,
but a large crowd of suckers can always
be ecunted. on. Upon the very next
i the crowd will be just as
large as ever, and the amount of kick-
ing afterwards will be ditto. Between
the fakirs and the faked, the people
who stay away from snide races and
snide picnics are furnished with lots of
amusement. It is interesting to hear
the after-howling and see the wry
faces, and it causes us to roll on the
ground and laugh. Blessed is the man
who remaineth with his wife and ehil-
dren on the glorious 4th, going to the
woods with them, or with. a few good
friends, if he has no family, and com-
muning with nature and nature’s God.
Go to the racé track, ye who will,
To see the fakir plying his skill—
See the torture of poor dumb brute,
And crooked work of race track
“'galoot.”
We prefer the song of the brook,
Hearing it in some cool, shady nook,
Enjoying the cool sir and breeze,
And perfume of wild flowers and trees.
Of all places on earth most sweet,
Thine are the praises, sylvan retreat.
Go to the races, ye who will,
Give us the breezy shade by the rill.

Some False Rumors Corrected—
Some Timely Suggestions.
It having been noised about town
that the editor: had two cases of ty-
phoid fever ic hig family, and that lit-
tle or no attention was paid to the
rules of sanitation, etc., by those who
attended the patients, we arise to re-
mark that the gossip is outrageously
false and unjust.
To begin with, we have at no time
had a regular case of typhoid fever at
our house, and our family doctor has
so informed us. After Mrs. Livengood
was taken ill and suffered about a
week, Dr. E. H. Perry and Dr. A. M,
Lichty were both called in consultation,
and both gave the same diagnosis of
the case, but it was not typhoid fever.
She was treated for ovarian trouble,
and in about a week was considerably
better. Then other complications set
in, and at times her ailment resembled
typhoid fever, but not-for any consid-
erable length of time. The doctor said
that while it was evidently not genuine
typhoid fever, there might be a little
typhoid infection about it, and he
stated what precautions it might be
well enough to take in regard to using
disinfectants. His instructions have
been all along obeyed to the letter, and
the reports that we have been empty-
ing anything and everything from the
sick room out in our lot is outrageously
false, and as unkind as it is false. Noth-
ing from the sick room has ever been
emptied out in our lot, except now and
then a little waste water, discarded
medicines and other harmless accumu-
lations that have occasionally been
emptied into various kinds of vessels
and carried out.
We have always kept our premises
serupulously clean, and we court in-
vestigation and inspection at any and
all times by the Town Council, Health
Board or anybody that cares to investi-
gate the lying rumors that have been
so unjustly and unkindly circulated by
people who should be minding their
own business and looking more closely
to the sanitation of their own homes.
We court inspection at all times for
the reason that we are anxious for
people to come and see how much
cleaner we keep everything about our
premises than most people do. We
have no cesspools, stench, filth, decay-
ing matter in old tin cans or anything
of that sort anywhere about our place,
and we never allowed anything of that
kind to accumulate. We have no hog
pen, chicken yard, dog or cat to drag
filth into our lot, and neither do we
have an old stinking stable only a few
steps from our back door. That is
more than a good many people can say,
and we do hope that the Town Council
will order a general cleaning up and
inspection of all the homes and places
of business in this town that need it.
We have suffered enough from sick-
ness and misfortune, but when it comes
to suffering persecution from the shafts
—Milwaukee Sentinel.
of lying tongues, we resent it and court
»
investigation of the lying rumors afloat.
In conclusion we will say that our
sick daughter suffered principally
from a badly sprained back. She was
in bed about two weeks, but is again
able to be up. Mrs. Livengood. is also
‘ablé to be up for a few minutes ata
time, but will not be able to do much
for six months or a year. Neither of
them had regular typhoid fever, and
even if they would have had it, it
would have been no crime, and the
sickness of others cannot be justly
charged to them or to any of the other
folks about the house. The disease is
not contagious, anyway, say all the
doctors, and there has been typhoid
fever in thiscommunity at intervals
ever since we know anything of the
place, and that covers a period of
nearly 32 years. People who get hys-
terical and slanderous when there is
sickness about, should take to the
woods and remainthere.
THREE GOOD AND JUST REASONS

LICENSE CASES IN. SUPREME
COURT.
Appeal from Superior Court Has
Been Allowed.
Higher Court Refused to Issue Su-
persedeas.
The Incident is Considered Closed
Until Next October.
Among the orders handed down by
the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania,
sitting’in Philadelphia, last Thursday,
was an order allowing the appeal of the
Somerset Prohibition Alliance from the
decision of the State Superior Court in
the mooted Somerset county liquor
license cases. No date was fixed by
the Court for argument and it is prob-
able that the cares will be heard by
that tribunal in October.
So much has been said in the news-
papers concerning the seventeen appli-
cations that were refused by Judge
Kooser because the petitions did not
contain the names of the sureties in
paragraph ning, that it is not necessary
to recite to Standard readers the his-
tory of the omission and what led up
to the filing of objections to the grant-
ing of the licenses.
Judge Kooser held, and gave his rea-
sons therefor at great length, that the
omission of those names from that
paragraph was a fatal error and left
him without jurisdiction to permit the
amendments or grant the licenses.
From this decision Attorney Berkey,
representing eight of the refused ap-
plicants, carried an appeal to the Su-
perior Court, and that body sustained
‘Berkey’s contention, that the omissions
were merely of form and not matters
of substance. The cases were remitted
to Judge Kooser “for further proceed-
ings according to law.” and several
days after receiving the order the
licenses were granted by the Somerset
county Court.
Attorneys W. H. Ruppel and J. C.
Lowry promptly filled a petition with
the prothonotary of the Supreme Court
for an appeal from the Superior Court.
In their petition they asserted that
they regarded the opinion of the Su-
perior Court as conflicting with other
rulings it has made; that only four
members of the court were present
when the arguments were heard; that
the opinion seems to rest largely on
the Oberfell case and that the Somer-
set county cases were widely different ;
that word from the legal profession in
different parts of the state showed that
the question is regarded as unsettled;
that there ought to be an authoritative
declaration in the matter as a guide for
future practice, as the question was one
of public concern.
The order of the higher court was
sent to Attorney W. H. Ruppel and
contained but two words: “Appeal
allowed.”
Ten days subsequent to the filing of
the petition for an appeal the attorneys
asking for the appeal filed another
petition to the Supreme Court, asking
that a special supersedeas issue, pre-
venting the lower court from granting
the licenses until the questions were
passed upon by the Supreme Court.
This petition has been refused or with-
held. Consequently the landlords who
are specially concerned in the matter
will enjoy the privileges of their Ii-
censes for some months, unless they
shculd be revoked for some other
reason.
The Supreme Court will meet in Oe-
tober, and if the usual course of that
body is followed, some weeks, and per-
haps months, will elapse before a de-
cision is rendered. —Somerset Standard.
MEN WHO PAY FREIGHT.
In reading so much of the “man with
the hoe,”
Bemoaning the harsh hand of fate,
We scarcely have time to remember
the woe
Of men who look after the freight.
Of all kinds and classes in Adamie
thrall,
Decreed to work early and late,
No class #0 down-trodden of men sinee
the fall
As those who are taxed with the
freight.
The hoers of corn bear their share of
the brunt
Of burdens of life in full weight ;
But eaters of corn have no less to con-
front, : :
For they are the ones who pay freight.
Thus diggers of coal grumble loudly
and long
Beénuse of oppression so great;
But how eompares this with the unex-
cused wrong
Of doubling the price in the freight?
Producers are wont, in all earnestness,
too,
Their hardships of life to relate;
Not deigning to ask what eonsumers
ean do
Who buy a thing twice, paying
freight. \
Undoubtedly all have a bard enough
time 3
To justify most of their prate;
But woe is the man, he needs courage
sublime,
Who belongs to the elass that pays
freight.

FORCED TO STARVE.
B. F. Leek, of Concord, Ky., says:
“For 20 years I suffered agonies, with a
sore on my upper lip, so painful, some-

with Bucklen’s Arnica Salve.” It’s

Cannot Announce Drawings and
Raffles.
Under a recent ruling of the Post-
office Department at Washington, news-
papers are forbidden to publish any
announcement of or reference to any
drawing or raffle, under penalty of ex-
clusion from the mails.
The order says that the terms of the
law bar “endless chain” enterprises, so-
called “gift concerts” or similar enter-
prises offering prizes depending on lot
or chance, including “guessing” or
“estimating” contests for prizes, as well
as drawings and raffles of every kind,
whether general or local, for money or
otherwise, for private gain or in aid of
charities, educational or religious ob-
jects.
Publieations, circulars, eards or
pamphlets containing advertisements
or other information relating to such
enterprises are required to be with-
drawn from the mails.
Tre STar’s friends, therefore, will
understand why we cannot announce
anything in connection with drawings
or raffles hereafter in these eolumns.
Somerset County Labor Troubles
Slop Over into Bedford.
Frank Hayman, fireman of a helping
engine on the Baltimore & Ohio rail-
road, residing at Hyndman, was shot
in the foot and painfully wounded at
that place on Saturday night, June 14,
during some trouble with non-union
men working at Williams Station, who
were in Hyndman on Saturday night.
Some persons called the non-union-
ists “scabs,” when one of the men pull-
ed a revolver and began shooting, stop-
ping only after he had emptied his re-
volver. One shot struck Hayman in
the foot and another shot grazed the
breast of a bystander. After Hayman
was shot he chased the non-unionists
with stones, but they escaped, and the
man who did the shooting has not yet
been captured.—Somerset Democrat.
