Hon. wiliiam montgomery,

This prominent Pennsylvania democrat
died at his residence, near Washington, Pa,
on Thursday, last. Mr.. Montgomery was
born at Canton, Bradford county, April H.,
1919 and was educated at Washington Col
egc. lie graduated in 1889, studied law,
and was admitted to the bar in 1915. In a
few years he won distinction in h is profession
and also became recognized leader in the
democratic party. In 1926 he was elected to
Congress, where he served two terms. Dur
ing his Congressional career his name be-
came conspicuous in connection with the So
called Crittenden- Montgomery amendment,
which was intended rs measure of paciii
cation to the slavery excitement. The latter
years of his lite were clouded by painful
family misfortune. 1t will be remembered
that he figured in the Dinsmore murder trial
as counsel for his own son, who was indicted
for connection with the crime.

RIOT At ELKTON.

TROUBLE BRTwERs CITIZENS AND A CIRCUS COM
PANY-oNE MAN KILLED.
ELKTes. Nd, April 30.-A difficulty occurred
here last night between some employees of
Campbell's circus and citizens of the town. in
which one of the circus company waf fatally in
jured. After the performance the members of
the troupe went TO the hotel of Enoch Ferguson
and called for liquor. The bottle being placed
on the bar, 1t was seized and carried Into the
street. where the party began drinking. Mr..
Ferguson secured the services of Constable Lewis,
and endeavored to ARREST the delinquents. Being
resisted, the officer started for help. During his
absence riot became general. A rush was made
by the troupe for the hotel Mr.. Furguson. being
overpowered, took refuge in an upper story. His
son Hugh was attacked and badly beaten.
About this time fight began in the street be-
tween some of the troupe and some negroes,
when one OF the negroes drew razor and inflicted
wound across the stomach of a man named
William Randolph, which must prove fatal. He
now lies at the Howard House, in a sinsing con-
dition. negro named Isanc Boyd Is charged
with the stabblng. He is not yet arrested.
Another account says that Randolph was pass
Ing along the sidewalk when he was attacked by
Boyd. Considerable excitement prevails In town
and summary measures are threatened against
the instigators OF the riot.

1t will not do for the Democracy to attempt to
preserve their reputation as 'the great unwashed"
and to base their claims to success on the white
ness of their cuticles at the same time. Harrow
ing as it may be to their feelings if color is to be
the issue in this campaign, then The Democrats
must get washed. Let their central committee
furnish soap instead of documents. No amount
of reading can affect mans complexion, but q
little soap and water might brighten up some
Democrats wonderfully.
We do not wish 10 appear cruel, but we shall
insist on cleanliness on the pant of the Democracy
this fall. Their only claim TO success now is theii
color, and like all other political claims, this /.
subject to scrutiny and criticism. 1t seems likt
petty business we admit, to criticse public
mans complexion, but Democracy has chosen tc
have it SO, and ''runs its face in this contest sc
it must expect It's face to get just as rough usag,
as its principles would have received, If it hat
not abandoned them for cuticle.

as excessive, and refused to perform any

purporting to convey intelligence Of the
"sudden death" of DR.. Salisbury, and the
substitution of Samuel Jefferson, as Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor. We Ere

not printed in our establishment; nor were
we "cognizant' of the affair, till we saw the
story printed in the Gazette, after the elec.
