Goop roads are indicative of n Na- tion’s greatness, promoting a desire for change and intercourse between com- munities, contributing fresh air and exercise which are so essential to health. Thre Somerset county Orphans are still without pap. They wanted the county to be a mother to them, but the old lady had a number of legitimate children of her own to raise.—Connells- ville Courier. Goobp roads are an evidence of civili- zation and should be furnished at the public expense. They stimulate cye- ling, automobiling, driving and riding, all of which in exercising the body divert the mind, rejoice the heart, and sweep the cobwebs from the brain. i THE roads are for everybody, and it should be one of the first cares of the community to put them in good order, and keep them so. It is cheaper in the long run to lay out a good desl on a road than to “potter” at the business as is the fashion in these country districts. Ar the spring primary election the highest Orphan vote was 2341. Sinee John Calvin Lowry, attorney-at-law and ex-editor of the “Tax Payer” has acted chairman, the vote at the late election was reduced to 785. Another year of this “wise” politican’s bossing the party, and it can crawl into a knot hole and pull the hole in after it.—Som- erset Democrat. CHAIRMAN-WILL-HE-NEVER-GET*AN-OF- FICE J. CALvIN Lowry assumed the chairmanship of the Orphans’ party, and immediately proceeded to inau- gurate an idiotic campaign, which closed in an act of undoubted imbe- cility, that of congratulating the mem- bers of his party on the defeat of the Corrupt Democratic ring. J. Calvin is a beautiful bird; one whose plumage and flocking propensities well entitle him to speak of corrupt rings. As long as the people of Somerset county per- sist in putting the triangular ring in the nasal appendage of said John Cal- vin, it is not likely that he will root in or turn up the paying sod of public office. The electors of Somerset county sometimes make mistakes, but they | know a razor-back when they see him. —~Somerset Democrat. Tre Somerset Herald pretends to feel greatly consoled over the defeat of Commissioner Joeeph B. Miller, and the old family organ tries to show that Miller’s defeat is entirely due to the fight the Herald and Commercial waged against him. However, the official vote of the county tells quite a different tale. The tabulated returns show that Mr. Miller received 1458 votes, or 109 more than the Democratic candidate for Superior Court Judge, 289 more than the Democratic candidate for Sheriff, 231 more than the Democratic candidate for Prothonotary, 284 more than the Democratic candidate for Re- corder, 305 more than the Democratic candidate for Clerk of the Courts, 262 more than the Democratic candidate for Register of Wills, 304 more than the Democratic candidate for Treasurer, 147 more than the Democratic candi- date for Auditor, 246 more than the Pemocratic candidate for Poor Direc- tor, 200 more than the Democratic can- didate for County Surveyor. and 200 more than the Democratic candidate for Coroner. The only reason Miller ran so far ahead of the balance of the Democratic ticket is because the Her- ald and Commercicl put up such a hard fight against him and pursued him all through the campaign with falsehood and misrepresentation. Had a few more yelping coyotes like the Herald and Commercial been at Miller’s heels, he would undoubtedly have been elected. BUT FEW ARE FREE. But few people are entirely free from indigestion at this season of the year. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is not only the best remedy to use because it digests what you eat, but because it also enables the digestive apparatus to as- similate and transform all foods into tissue-building blood. Kodol relieves sour stomach, heart burn, belching, and all forms of Indigestion. Sold by E. H. Miller. 12-1 Sensation Promised. John Collins, of Oakland, Md., has been arrested on a charge of perjury and bigamy. Collins has a wife and seven children at Oakland. Last May, it is alleged, he married Fannie Seibert, of Jockey Hollow, Fayette county. | Five weeks ago the mother of the sec- ond wife died. County Detective Me- | Beth and Coroner Hagan will go to | Somerfield to exhume the remains of | Mrs. Seibert for the inquest and post | mortem exsmination POWER OF THE COUNTRY EDITOR. It is not necessary, these days. to re- buke sneers often made at the country editor, because these days nobody does sneer at the country editor. That time has passed. Yet it is not because the country edi- tor has taken to office-holding that he is an influential figure in the nation. It is rather in spite of this fact. There- fore. the exultation of a member of the rural journalistic fraternity over the rise to power of many of his contem- poraries is due to a misapprehension of cause and effect. The country editor is a power, not because he is in office, but because he is an editor. It is true that the country editor nowadays aspires to more important posts than the local postmastership. It is true that in Xansas, Minnesota and Oklahoma he has attained tothe Guber- natorial chair, and that in other states he holds hardly less important office. But these honors are, after all, merely incidents of his chief glory whieh arises out of his journalistic vo- cation. Anybody with strength enough to draw a salary can be an office holder, but it takes a pretty good all-round man to be a country editor. Such a man must combine business and liter- ary ability with more political sagacity than falls to the lot of the average pol- itician. He must be a diplomat, and a good one. Must be mixer, possess the judicial temperament, and, above all, he must have a reputation for honesty that is beyond suspicion. It is the pos- session of these qualities which make the editer of the patent-inside weekly a power in his community far out of the influence which is exercised by the metropolitan journalist. The country editor is close to his constituents. They know him, and if they support and indorse him he is second to no man in the power that he wielde in his neighborhood. If he falls in honesty or in fairness, he will not long remain a country editor, because his influence vanishes with his good reputation. It is to the credit of the country edi- tor that he is, to the number of several thousands, in full enjoyment of public confidence, and that he is, incidentally, earning a good living. He is not second to anyone in his power for good in this country, and that his power is right- eously exercised is known of all mer. —~Chicago Chronicle. EVERY OUNCE YOU EAT. Every ounce of food you eat that fails to digest does a pound of harm. It turns the entire meal into poison. This not only deprives the blood of the nee- essary tissue-building material, but it poisons it. Kodol Dyspepsia Cure is a perfect digestant. It digests the food regardless of the condition of the stomach. It allows that organ to rest and get strong again. Relieves Belch- ing, Heart Burn, Sour Stomach, Indi- gestion, Palpitation of the Heart, etc. Sold by E. H. Miller. 12-1 Cases for December Court, Some of Which are Continued from Former Terms.
