DUNCAN, Windber's Candidate for Assembly- m To THE REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF SOMER- SET COUNTY :— According to the solicitation of nu- merous friends, and responding to great pressure by hosts of voters, many of whom being men of prominence and large taxpayers throughout the county, particularly from the northern end, I hereby announce my candidacy for the Assembly. subject to the decision of the Republican voters of Somerset county at the primaries to be held on May 26th. I respectfully solicit not only the in- fluence but the vore of every Republi- can voter on that day, pledging myself, if nominated, and subsequently elected, to conscientiously discharge my duty— not in the interests of any one man, or common people, for just and impartial laws, and for the best welfare of the county. Very respectfully yours, C. J. Duncan. Windber, Pa., May 10, 1906. appears above, was born in 50 years ago. age, when he engaged in the lumber business. In 1882 he embarked into «that business for himself, in Clearfield county, but two years later removed to Fallen Timber, Cambria county, where he continued contracting in lumber until 1891. He then built the Moun- tain House at Dunlo, Pa., conducting the same until 1897, when he removed to Windber, in the beginning of its boom. Here he erected another hotel —the Windber—and for a year and a half very successfully conducted it. Though living retired now, and for some time past, Mr. Duncan devotes some of his time to the buying and sell- ing of timber tracts. As president of the Borough Council he is now serving his last year of a three-year term, serv- ing that body with dignity, ard his townsmen with perfect satisfaction. He is a man of independent spirit, com- mon sense, and good judgment, and undoubtedly pre-eminent qualified for the office to which he aspires, and to which so many of his friends, voters and taxpayers called him to.—Windber Era.

MILLER Resents False Statement Being Cir- culated by John G. Ogle. Rockwoon, Pa., 16th May, 1908. To REPUBLICAN VOTERS :— My opponent published last week a letter alleging “a vote for Miller is a vote against Somerset county and in favor of Cooper and Fayette county.” Mr. Ogle acted upon unreliable infor- mation. If he would have inquired of me I would have advised him of the un- truthfulness of the statement. I am not a candidate in the interest of Mr. Cooper nor in the interest of Mr. Ogle. I am a candidate in my own in- terest. I have no political arrange- ment with any man. Iam seeking the endorsement of the Republican party of Somerset county, and if endorsed shall use every honorable means at my command to secure the nomination. I believe in clean politics. I believe candidates should make truthful rep- resentations to the people whose suf- frages they seek. I believe candidates should be fair and truthful toward one another. He that seeks a public office is seeking a public trust. Men who aspire to positions of honor should be fair, honest and truthful. May not this honor for once come to a citizen of Somerset county who has been reared among the Sons of Agriculture? A vote for me is a vote for. the soldier’s friend. A vote for me is a vote for one who believes that the poor man should ride upon railroads at two cents a mile as well as the rich. A vote for me is a vote for one who has lived with, associated with, and known the wants of the people of Somerset county. I again ask you to consider carefully what I have said in my letter of last week and what I say in this letter. Do not fail to attend the election and vote for the man of your choice. Very truly yours, E. D. MLLER. POSTMASTER ROBBED. G. W. Fouts, Postmaster at Riverton, Ia., nearly lost his life and was robbed of all comfort, according to his letter, which says: “For 20 years I had chronic liver complaint, which led to such a severe case of jaundice that even my finger nails turned yellow; when my doctor prescribed Electric Bitters ; which cured me and have kept me well for eleven years.” Sure cure for Biliousness, Neuralgia, Weakness and all Stomach.

To Tur REPUBLICAN VOTERS OF SoM- ERSET COUNTY :— I am a candidate for Congress, and never having had and office, and hav- ing been a faithful Republican for 34 years, ask now that I be given some recognition by the Republican party. Respectfully, Jorn" G. OaLxm. eet Have you tried Thompson’s home- made Gingerbread? Just the kind your grandmother baked. Get it at Thompson’s, opposite Hay’s Hotel, tf The Electric Road. In this issue we print another charter notice for the electric road people wha failed in getting the charter applied for on May 7th, owing to certain things io their first application which conflicted with the charter granted a few years ago to the company that started to build a road and had to quit for want of funds. The new company feels con- fident of getting n charter at the next hearing, June 7th, and there is ug doubt whatever that the road will he built and in operation within the next six mouths. : A MOUNTAIN OF GOLD could not bring as much happiness to Mrs. Lucia Wilke, of Caroline, Wis., as did one 25c. box of Bucklen’s Arnica Salve, when it completely cured a run- ning sore on her leg, which had tortue- ed her 23 long years.

Mi1LLER looks like a Con- gressman, talks like a gentleman, acts like a gentleman and is a gentleman. He has filled various positions of pub- lic trust, and his official record, as well as his personal record, can be appro- priately likened unto a clean page in a good book. Who ever heard a breath of scandal or reproach hurled at E. D. Miller when he was in the Legislature? His record is as clean as the driven snow is white. Or the four candidates for Assembly, three of them—XKnepper, Endsley and Horner—have pledged themselves to do all in their power for the repeal of Pennsylvania’s hideous and despotic vaccination law, if elected. The vae- cination issue is the most important one of this campaign, and the compul- sory vaccination of either children or adults is an insult to a free and patri- otic people. Down with the damnable humbug,-under any and all circum- stances? OGLE says he has not invaded Coop- er’'s home county. Why? For the simple reason that Cooper is more pop- ular in Fayette county than Ogle is in Somerset, and “Johnny” knew it would do him no good. But how about in- vading the Green county candidates home county, Mr. Ogle? You made a sneaking, dark-lantern invasion there, “sonny,” but the very people you thought to interest in your behalf only laughed up their sleeves and exposed you. Deny it if you dare. The people of Greene are not as green as Mr. Ogle thought they were. Traus far this has been a pretty clean campaign, and THe Star had hoped to see it remain free from personal abuse between the various candidates. How- ever, little “Johnny” Ogle came out last week with a very uncalled for whine in the Somerset Herald, the very paper we and others have heard him denounce as “the old mud-slinger.” He makes some very harsh and uncall- ed for remarks against Hon. E. D. Mil- ler and others, and all because he has not been given the field to himself as a candidate for Congress. He forgets that this is a free country, and that all loyal Republicans have an equal right to announce for office at a Republican primary. However, you can usually count on a little swell-head of Ogle’s stripe making a fool of himself at the Piopsr time to knock his little boomlet silly. -— Joan G. OcLe, candidate for Con- gress, was a caller at THE Star office yesterday. “Johnny” seemed to be somewhat scared and rattled, and, in fact, he was real downright mad on ac- count of running across so many people that refuse to agree with him that he should have the Congressional field all to himself. He felt very sore because of the stiff opposition he is encounter- ing, buf he mustered up courage enough to have his face and announcement printed in this paper. He thinks Mil- ler ought to get out of his road, buat “Johnny” isn’t so big that he is likely to run over any person, and besides, it’s a free country, you know, and Miller is one of the kind of stalwart Republicans that always remained loyal to his party, no matter whether his own friends or the friends of the opposite faction won at the primary. E.D. Miller is a stal- wart Republican in the . true sense of the word, also a gentleman. It was amusing to read Ogle’s an- nouncement in last wegk’s Somerset Herald, especially that portion of it which stated how he yielded his place in the Congressional race of four years ago to J. A. Berkey. No Republican in Somerset county of any note or influ- ence, save oniy Ogle’s brother-in-law, Judge Kooser, would admit for one moment, four years ago, that Ogle ever had a place in the race. Even Brother- In-Law Kooser regarded Ogle’s threat- ened candidacy as an absurdity, but added that he would have to support his brother-in-law if he decided to run. Ogle used to say that he was clubbed off the track. Now he says he yielded his place for the sake of harmony. The fact is he stepped aside for no other reason than that he realized that the only Republican of any note that would support him was his brother-in-law, Judge Kooser. J. A. Berkey was an easy winner, four years ago, and he could have won with Ogle and Harvey M. Berkley both in the field. A BAD BURN. For a painful burn there is nothing like DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve. There are a host of imitations of DeWitt’s Witch Hazel Salve on the market—see that you get the genuine. Ask for De- Witt’s. Good, too, for sunburn, cuts, bruises, and especially recommended for piles. The name E. C. DeWitt & Co., Chicago, is on every box. Sold by E. H. Miller. 8-1
