CONCEALED WEAPONS AND LAW,
The prevention of crimes of violence,
particularly among the lower class of
our population, is one of the greatest
problems with which the courts and
peace officers have to deal. The resort
of the ignorant and uncultured in case
of affront is always to force; brute pas-
sion blinds them to consequences and
thus it is that deadly weapons are
brought into use with often fatal re-
sults and later remorse, says .the
Greensburg Argus.
There is no preventative for the un-
controllable temper and blind passions
but education and proper early train-
ing, but the outbreaks of these unde-
girable attributes would in most cases
spend themselves harmlessly were not
the deadly weapon conveniently at
hand.
The one thing which seems most
likely to prevent violence is to deprive
the vicious of the instruments of mur-
der and injury. Itis illegal to carry
deadly weapons concealed in this state
and the violation of this law carries a
severe penalty, yet there is not a ses-
sion of criminal court that is not called
npon to consider numerous cases of
this character. It seems the law is not
respected.
Matters might be helped if the pen-
alty were made more severe. In the
Fayette county court last week
Judge Reppert took occasion to make
some remarks concerning the common
crime of carrying concealed deadly
weapons. He said in substance that if
the law was strictly enforced as to this
crime it would be the means of doing
away with many murders and cutting
and shooting offenses now so common.
The law, however, does not debar
; anyone from bearing arms in his own
defense or for the protection of his
property. The intent was to be con-
' gidered, as this made the crime, and if
‘ the defendant could not explain satis-
| factorily why he had the weapon on
his person then he should be found
guilty. As Judge Reppert points out
the peace officers are not sufficiently
vigilant in enforcing the law, while the
law itself does not seem to command
* sufficient respect.
THE Washington Observer urges
the enactment of a law making con-
stables and justices of the peace sal-
aried officials, If this were done it
would wipe out one conspicious fee
scandal and would save many counties
large sums of money every year. The
ingenious way in which constables
and justices in some counties pad their
fee bills makes them very expensive.
if they were paid fixed salaries there
, wonld be no difficulty in getting com-
petent service and the tax payers would
have less cause of complaint.
POMONA GRANGE.
Officers Elected for the County Organiza-
tion at the Last Meeting.
The Cambria county Pomona grange
at its meeting at Carrolltown Monday
elected the following officers:
| Cambria county, both Democrats and
FORCED OFF THE TICKET!
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1.”
The truth is the citizens of Northern
Republicans, have too long been suck-
ing the hind mamilla of the Johnstown
gow. The time is now at hand to throw
off the yoke of bondage, cast off the |
halter of servitude and teach these ar-
rogant grafters that there are other
places in Cambria county outside of |
Johnstown worthy of political consid- |
eration. If Jesse BE. Dale is forced off |
the Republican ticket at the behest of a |
fow cold-blooded and brutal so-called
leaders the result will be a revolution
in Cambria county politics the effects
of which will be felt for years. This is
full, fair and free warning and written
with an intimate knowledge of the |
temper of the people. {
The following from a Johnstown |
newspaper bearing an Ebensburg date |
line aptly describes the situation as |
viewed by the people of this section:
«Whether or not Jesse Dale, Repub- |
lican candidate for sheriff in this
county, will consent to be pushed from |
the ticket by the Republican bosses is |
just now the all-absorbing question |
among Republican politicians through- |
out the county. For several weeks ne- |
gotiations of the most delicate nature |
have been in progress, having as their |
end the retirement of Mr. Dale in favor |
of a candidate ‘more available.’ |
“So far Mr. Dale,acting on the advice
of his friends throughout the county,
has refused to step down and out. This |
refusal has brought things to a crisis |
and as a result Mr. Dale has been told |
brutally and directly that there is
nothing to it except that he must get |
off. As can readily be imagined, this |
notification has not been received by |
either Mr. Dale or his friends with en-
thusiasm. |
«It is understood that County Chair- |
man Troxell was in conference with a
number of leading Republicans of the
county and that ‘Dale was inclined to
balk.’ In spite of this fact it has been
confidently announced by persons in
the inner circle that the regularly nom-
inated candidate will be forced out.
“Owing to the fact that the reasons
for retiring Mr. Dale are not generally
understood the program is encounter-
ing considerable opposition among the
rank and file of the party, so far as
they have been allowed to know just
what was going on. No charges have
been made against Mr. Dale affecting
his availibility as a candidate and there
sis something very mysterious about the
whole affair.
“The general accepted view is that
the Republican bosses have discovered
that Mr. Dale is not prepared to ‘prop-
erly finance a campaign’ and that itis
desired to ride over him in order to get
a man with more money on the ticket.
To this argument Mr. Dale’s friends
have replied that it was not supposed
that a boodle campaign was desirable
or even possible under the laws recent-
ly passed and that, although Mr. Dale |
is not rich, that fact should not be |
counted against him. |
“What the outcome will be is regard-
ed as uncertain. It can, however, be
stated definitely that the whole matter
is now up to Mr. Dale. He has been
asked to quit by the party leaders. So
far he has refused to do so. Those who |
know the Republican candidate for |
sheriff intimately declare that he will |
not allow himself to be bluffed out. On |
the other hand those close to the Re-
publican organization declare that
‘Dale will be off the ticket.in plenty of
time to get another man on.’
«The effort to change the decree of |
the recent Republican county conven- |
the facts are known. Many Republi- |
cans are taking the position that the |
bosses would do well to allow the work |
of the county conyention to stand and |
that to force a candidate from the |
ticket in order to replace him with al
man who has money and is willing to |
spend it is hardly a good beginning for |
a hard campaign.”
