NUMBER 41.
Candidate for Congress.
lit tin matter of great Importance
t that 'lire Republican voter of the
"Tweoly-wveotb district should make
wlse-eelecilon of a candidate for Con
igreMetrthe primary election to be held
Saturday afternoon. April 11. The-dis-;
" 'trtot Is large. Its interests varied, and
to represent It proaerly a man should
have nflre than a theoretical knowl
edge of Its needs. He should have prac
tical experience as well. He should ba
roan who has succeeded In his own
.affairs. ' It is a safe and sane rule to fol
low la soluciing men for public service,
to choose only those who have demon
etrated their ability to manage their
own business successfully. The people
of the Tweuty-Seveuih district are lor
'tunate In having a representative who
'fully eneets the requirements indicated,
and is ranking a marked success in his
congressional career, as he has in all
-others. Hon. Joseph G. Beale was
raised on a farm and was a successful
'farmer, engaged in merchandising and
-succeeded, built and operated an iron
and steel mill and made a success of it,
'is at. present engaged in hanking and
'producing coal with success. These ac
tivities cover very nearly all the in
terests of the district, aud guaged by
the standards mentioned, practical
knowledge and success, Major Beale is
-surely the right man In the right place
A and It -would not be a good business
' proposition to make a change. The
-question of fitness being settled there
. are some minor matters that should ap
peal to the voters of the district in his
'favor. 'I', has been the custom to cou
cede a man a second term and Major
'Beale has always honored this custom
in -standing loyally by the men who
.have preceded him. They will surely
remember his loyalty and give him
their support as manly men ought.
'The law of tbo land provides that, all
things beiug equal, a soldier of the civil
war shall hav? the preference in all
-Appointments to o Rices of profit or trust
under the government. This law was
enacted in grateful recognition of the
men who offered their lives for the pro
tection and perpetuity of the govern
ment. Major Beale was one of those
who enlisted at the first call for three
months, served his time and re-enlisted
for three years. He baptised the soil
of Virginia with his blood at Charles
City Cross Roads June 30, 1862, lay upon
the field seven days, was captured, con
fined In Llbby prUtn and lay there
until paroled. In the spirit of the law
is he not entitled to every vote In the
district? He bas been loyal to the Re
publican party all bis life, has never
wavered nor sulked In his tent, even
when smurtlng under defeat, but has
always been found marching in tho
ranks and contributing liberally to help
elect the men who defeated him. With
such a record for ability, in his practi
cal knowledge of tho wants of the
people, for success, for loyalty to coun
try and party, the people of Armstrong
county feel they are presenting a can
didate who is In every particular
worthy the support they ask for him.

The Coal Industry in 1907.
A production of between 450,000,000
and 460 000,000 short tons of coal in the
United States in 1907 Is Indicated by
the returns received thus far by the
United States Geological Survey, or an
Increase of about ten tier cent over the
record breaking output of 1906.
The most notable increase was made
In the production of Pennsylvania an
thracite, In which a gain of 20 per cent
was recorded, if the shipments reported
by the Bureau of Anthracite Coal Sta
tistics may be accepted as Indicative of
the total production; and as the ship
ments amounted to more than 85 per
cent of the total production, such an
assumption Is not unreasonable. The
shipments of anthracite in 1903 amount
ed to 67.109,393 long tons, as against
55,696,695 long tons In 1906 This
would indicate a total production for
the year of approximately 75,366,000
long tons, or about 85,840,000 short tons.
The production of bituminous coal
cannct be estimated as closely as that
of anthracite, for there is no such re
liable method of arriving at the total;
but letters received by the survey from
a number of the larger operators and
from state officials indicate that the out
put of bituminous coal in 1907 exceeded
that of the previous year by 7 to 10 per
cent. The increases were rather un
evenly distributed and were influenced
by several causes. In the eastern states
where large quantities of bituminous
coal are used In coke making and for
other Industrial purposes, the trade
felt heavily the financial stress of the
last three months of the year, and lo
cally this effect was so pronounced that
Increases recorded during the first nine
months were to a large extent wiped
out. Had it not been for this disturb
ance In financial circles the production
of bituminous coal In 1907 would prob
ably have shown an Increase almost
comparable with the gain In anthracite
production. It Is almost certain that
the increase would have amounted to
about 15 per cent, total output being
between 390,000,000 and 400,000,000
tons. As it Is, the output will probably
b a about 25,000,000 tons short of that
figure.
HENRIETTA CROSMAN.
At Jefferson Theatre, Punxsutawney, on.
! Thursday evening, February aotb.
In "The'New Mrs. Lorlng," described
as a comedy, pure and simple, there
will be found one of the most human
stories ever modified for the theatre.
In its gradual development the author
has dared much by relating most of
the . truth connected with the life of
a prominent American. The real de
nouement would hardly convey belief
to the skeptics among the theatre-going
public, so the author has taken that
theatrical license of ending her play
with fiction. Even then the story is
said to compel Interest until the final
curtain. A special trolley bas been
chartered to return to Reynoldsville
after the performance. Call at Nation
al Hotel for tickets.
Scheafnocker for Treasurer.
Grant cheafnocker, present sheriff
of Jefferson county, who la now a
candidate for the Republican nomi
nation for county treasurer, is a strong
and popular candidate and will get a
large vote at the primary election in
April. Mr. Scheafnocker, who was
plUmber for the OH City Fuel Supply
Co. at Keynoldsvllle when he was
I nominated and eleoted three years ago
for sheriff, made his oanvas at that time
as a laboring man, and was not well
known throughout the county at the
beginning of the campaign, but bis
position as sheriff gives bim an ad
vantage in this campaign because he
is so well known over the 'county. He
has been so obliging and courteous, and
has so ably and carefully conducted the
affairs of the county during his ad
ministration as sheriff, that he has won
the admiration and good will of a
large number of voters who will stand
by him during this contest and will
vote for him April 11. Mr. Scheaf
nocker would make an excellent treas
urer of Jefferson county if nominated
and elected. v
Popular Candidate.
County Commissioner J. N. Kelley, of
Brook vlille, was a visitor to Brockway
vllle one day this week and while here
favored the Record with a pleasant
vlelt. Mr. Kelley, who. is a candidate
for re-election to the office of Com
missioner, is meeting with deserved
encouragement In his present campaign
and there Is a growing sentiment In
every district in the county In favor
ol a re-election for Mr. Kelly. Jeffer
son county never had a more capable
or trustworthy official in the commis
sioners office than Mr. Kelly, as all
who have any business to transact
there can readily testify, and it is but
natural that the people would want to
retain so able a man The Record will
say more about Mr. Kelly's candldaoyv
In another issuo, but will state here
that the people of Jefferson county,
have in Commissioner Kelly a man
who merits the position he holds and
his past service is the beBt recommend
dation for his re-election. Brockway.

In ''Parsifal" we offer the greatest religious subject that bas been pro
duced In motion pictures since the Passion Play was first produced by the
Edison Company about elghtyears ago, and there has been a constant de
mand for this picture during all these years, and continuing up to the present
day. - At the same time there has been not only a demand, but a long-felt
want for a new religious picture of intereet and merit similar to the Passion
Play. "
In "Parsifal" we believe we have filled this want. A large amount of
time, labor and money has been expended In produoing this picture.
The picture was specially posed and rehearsed for motion pictures.
The same talent, Kceuery and costumes used In the original dramatic pro
duction were used for taking these pictures, tho company having played
- "Parsifal'' for several seasons Tho result Is that wo have produced a pic
ture both dramatically and photographically perfect, which wo offer to the
public with every confidence that It will be received accordingly.
