A few months ago Now York capital
ists made a proposition to the people of

Interest of 7 per cent, per annum would
bo paid on tho $".0,000. Our citizens
took hold of tho matter and succeeded
In raising the $50,000 stock, and now
the matter rests with tho New York
capitalists, ono of whom will be in

J. G. Allen Heard From.
We received a communication Satur
day from J. G. Allen, of Aliens Mills,
relative to an article concerning a
law suit between Nlnlan Cooper, of this
place, and Mr. Allen and Mr. Humph
reys, of Boech woods, which appeared
In Thk Star three weeks ago. The
communication is very sarcastic and
rather lengthy for publication. In sub
stance Mr. Allen says: W. N. and J.
M. Humphrey were plan tiffs and Nlnian
Cooper, defendant. Jerry Allen and
J. M. Humphrey never sherlffed Nlnlan
Cooper. They were not Interested In
the property In dispute for 25 years
after the date mentionod, 1810, in the
article. They never paid the costs nor
had the ease oontinuod. Mr. Cooper
never forced them to a trial, but rather
evaded It to the extent of offering a aum
of money for the aettlement of the case.
Mr. Allen claims in hla communication
that Nlnlan Cooper wrote the article
which appeared in The Star. Mr.
Cooper did not write the artlole In ques
tion, nor did he even dictate It, but be
did furnish what he olaimed to be the
facta contained In the artlole.
SUSPENDED NINE MONTHS.
Judge Reed Filed His Decision In the
Fairman Disbarment Case Last Friday.
At the February term of court, 18S7,
a petition was presented to tho Court
to disbar Wm. Fairman, Esq., of Punx
sutawney, from practicing before the
.Teller son county bar. Tho case was
continued several times. All the evi
dence was finally given and Judge Reed
heard the arguments In the case a
couple of weeks ago. Last Friday he
handed down his decision, which is a
lengthy document. The Judge care
fully considered the case, in which were
fifteen specifications, boforo ho reached
tho "lastly," which is ns follows:
"The respondent Is charged with ex
hibiting a dishonest character In his
professional Intercourse, and with hav
ing a bad reputation for honesty. Thero
were a large ti.nnhcrof witnesses called
pro and con. But It Is evident that tho
respondent, by bis habit of unnecessarily
abusing and Impugning tho good namo
of others, has called down upon his own
head many of tho remarks derogatory
to his reputation for honesty. Tho
testimony Is neither so clear, nor satis
factory on these charges that we would
feel justified m meeting out condign
punishment on account of them.
To thoroughly understand this case a
knowledge of It's environment, and of
the respondent Is necessary! Tho re
sMindent has been a member of this
bar for more than twenty years, and en
joys n very largo criminal practice.
Ho Is now past sixty-one years of ago,
and Is dependent on his professional in
come for a livelihood. He has long had
the distlnctnn of being an unique char
acter in the profession. His profession
al career, however, has been marked by a
course of conduct which cannot in its
entirety, bo commended as worthy of
emulation, but his kindliness of heart,
his gonial disposition, and his forgiving
nature atono in some degree, at least,
for tunny lesser offenses and Improprie
ties which attach to his conduct.
The only offense charged, asombodled
In this complaint, which has been com
mitted since we were called to preside
over tho courts of this county, relates
to the case of the Commonwealth vs.
M. J. Ilappeny, et. al. In this transac
tion the respondent profited nothing by
hlsattemptedsettlementof thecaso, and
tho defendants, on their own confession,
were convicted and punished. Tho mon
ey paid or deposited by them to
secure a settlement have been re
turned to them. But it cannot be gain
said that the respondent's conduct In
connection with this case tended to
lessen the respect and weaken the confi
dence of tho public in tho administra
tion of justice. Neither can wo permit
to pass unnoticed and unpunished the
attempt to change the answer filed In
this case without leave of the court.
The costs of this proceeding have
been considerably Increased by the mak
ing of stale charges, and charges which
the testimony fails to sustain and we,
therefore, think that a portion of the
costs should bo placed upon the petition
er. And now, January 21st, 1808, it is or
dered and directed that the respondent,
Wm. M. Fairman, be, and he is hereby
suspended from his office of attorney
for a period of nine months from the
date of this order; and it Is further or
dered and directed that the said re
spondent pay three-fourths of the costs
of this proceeding, and that the petition
er, W. C. Shaffer, pay the other one
fourth of said costs."
