1914, THE PEOPLE OF LOUISIANA DID
FAIRLY HAVE FREE, PEACEABLE
FULL REGISTRATION, IN WHICH A
CLEAR CONSERVATIVEMAJoR WAS
ELECTED TO THE LOWER HOUSE OF
TIE LEGISLATURE, OF WHICH MAJOR
ITY THE CONSERVATIVES WERE DE-
PRIvED BY THE UNJUST, ILLEGAL,
AND ARBITRARY ACTION OF THE RE-
TURNING BOARD. That there were
turbulent spirits cannot be denied.
Those returned to Office by the Re-
turning Board in violation of the wish
es of the people are especially odious,
In one instance the editor of the
Shreveport News, in anticipation OF
the Illustration blythe Returning Roard
of the will of the people, openly de-
clared that the only remedy was to kill
the usurpers, and declared this to be
the sentiments of the Conservatives of
his section Of the State, but beyond an
editor or two, no declaration even of
that sort Was brought to our own no.
tice, although it was admitted on all
hands that the white people of the
whole State felt greatly outraged by
the action of the Returning Board.
indeed, it is conceded by all parties
that the Kellogg government Is only
upheld by Federal military, and that
government will 60 down. This Was
true before January, as well as now.
Governor Kellogg says this is owing
to the doubt that Congress has per-
mitted about the legality of his Gov
eminent.
The Conservatives say that this is not
only because the government is illegal,
but because it is has been abusive and
corrupt.

IMPORTANT RA1LROAD SURvEYs.---
The Pennsylvania Railroad has recently had
several parties Of engineers In this region, en-
gagged In surveying routes from Tyrone TO the
Moshannon and Clcarhcld creek coal fields, in
search Of the lowest attainablc grade. Three
lines have been run, and the results returned TO
the company's Office at Philadelphia to be plated.
One line runs up Sinking Spring run from Ty-
rome, follows Three Spring run gap to JanesviIle,
and by Spruce Flat to Houtzdalc. This contern.
plates reaching Clearheld creek.
A second leaves the line Of the Tyrone and
Cleariold road at the summit Of Sandy Ridge.
crosses the head Of Trout run and Bear ridge 10
the summit between Trout run and the Moshan-
non thence down Bear run, crossing the Moshan-
non creek and Whiteside run, to Houtrdale.
The third line leaves the above at the mouth Of
Bear run, and follows the Moshannon to 0sceola.
All tho surveys made on the east side Of Trout
run summit show good coal In large quantities.
A grade to the summit Of Sandy Ridge has been
obtained not exceeding fifty feet 10 the mile.
This Is in marked contrast to the present grade
of the road, which reaches maximum Of one
hundred and twenty feet to the mile, and requires
the power Of four locomotives 10 move heavy
coal train from Osceola TO the summit. The lines
from the summit would require the construction
Of about soyon miles Of new read, and would in-
crease the Distance from Tyrone to osceola w o
miles. f
These surveys have originated a great many
statements that the present road from 0sceola TO
the summit would be abandoned, and new line
avoiding the high grades for heavy trains going
southwark, constructed at once. We are assured
on high railroad authority that this Is all mis-
take. The company have nc present intention
Of building new read, and the surveys arc made
for the Information Of the railroad officials, and
TO govern their action on other matters than

Sandy ridge. At some future time when the
railroad business Is better than II now Is, the
heavy expenditures necessary to build new low
grade road from 0sceola to the summit may be
entered on, but Of this there Is no immediate
prospect Osecoia RereiAe.

In TowN.-IIon. A. III. Dill, Stat,
Senator from the Union Northumberland District
and family, spent several days in this place las
tor Dill one Of the few public men who has no
had his reputation furnished, after spending 81,
years at Harrisburg. We notice that the Doyles
town Democrot states that be has declined IN,
nomination for Governor, preferring to remain ia
the Senate. Well, Senator Dill has the right to
do as he pleases about this question. Neverthe.
less, we expect to vote for him for Governor be-
fore we leave this Continent. Ifa member of the
Senate or House at Harrisburg can maintain his
integrity for six years, he is certainly bomb proof

lDLESAw MILLs.-No other branches
OF trade are so completely blessed as the lumber
and iron trade. We are in the midst Of blessed
times. The williamsport Gazette Of last week, in
alluding to the lumber business in that city, de-
tails as follows
Owing to the scarcity Of logs, almost all the
mills In and around williamsport have either
been closed down or are on the eve Of doing so
The last log was taken out Of the boom over ten
days ago, aud unless food should come, there
will DO no more saving done this season, after
next week A few mills are yet running, but
their stock Is nearly gone,
j. ii. Taylor Son will cut out their stock by
the close Of the present week, and will shut down
This firm have at present forty men In their en- .
ploy, all Of whom will be thrown out Of work.
The Beaver mills, which employed nearly sew
cnty five men, have been shut down since Friday
Tinsmans mill Ia now shut down for repairs
but viii start up again in few days. They have
about ten days saving In their pond then they
will be compelled TO shut down. This mill gave
work TO fifty y-hye men, all Of whom will DO idle.
The mill Of George Quinn, employing about
forty men, ceased to run on Friday last.
The mill Of Finley, Young 4 Co. has been shut
down for more than two weeks on account Of a
scarcity Of logs. This firm employed about seven
two men, most Of whom are out Of work
The Ncrriman mill may possibly run two wccks
longer when Il will have cleaned out the pond,
and closed up. This mill gives work to about
fifty men, all of whom will be thrown out of sm-
poyment when II closes. f'''t U
The mill Of Eder, IIousel A Deemer has stock
enough to run about one week. This firm employs
about forty men.
The Reading, Fisher a Co. mill has been out Of
service for more than two weeks. They employ
about SIXTY men.
The large mill Of white, Lentr a white cut It's
last log on Friday last This mill gave employ
ment to seventy-hve men.
At the mill Of 2. Herdic A Co. there was no
work done e!,er Wednesday, as they expected to
"cut outy.by last night or to-day by noon. Forty
men are employed by this company.
The above are a few Of the largest mills on the
river. Between the mill Of p. q. Fcssler 4 Co.,
above Jaynesburg, and the mouth Of Loyalsock,
there are twenty-six mills which will be silent in
n short time unless q food should come II Is
fair to presume that forty men 10 each mill would
be about the average employed. This II will be
seen amounts to l,o40 men who will be out Of EN-
ploymcnt in few days. Occurring, as II does,
almost In the middle OF the summer, and the
prospect Of a flood being none Of the brightest at
present, II is feared that unless the mills should
again start up, the coming winter will be one Of
the hardest we have ever experienced in this
community.
