The Somerset herald. [volume] (Somerset, Pa.) 1870-1936, 1881-06-22

GOVERNOR Horn has vetoed the
Judicial Apportionment bill, the
principal reason assigned being that
the Constitution expressly fixes the
number Of inhabitants in a Judicial
district at not less than 10000, and
that three of the districts formed by
the new bill contain less number
An unpleasant and perhaps a trou-
blesome question is opened up by
the Governors action in the matter.
The Constitution requires the Legis-
lature TO create any county having
forty thousand population q separate
district, hence the large increase Of
districts, and the :.,-eyiute necessity
Of making a few isolated counties
with less than 10000 inhabitants
separate districts, or attaching them
to counties entitled to be separate
districts. In the latter case tie
judges complain that they are re-
quired to preside in more counties,
and hold a greater number of Courts
than the Constitution contemplates,
and the Supreme Court having de-
cided that the voters within the
county containing the requisite
amount Of population are entitled to
elect the Judge, therefore, the vo-
ters of the smaller county attached
to the larger one, are absolutely dis
franchised, having no voice in the
selection OF their Judge. The peo-
pie of the smaller counties viii not
quietly assent to have their right to
the ballot curtailed, and if the Gov
ernor and the Supreme Court each
insist on the enforcement Of their
views there is likely to be shindy.

Tarred and Feathered

WAYNEsBURG, Pa, June 15.-Olli-
GERS of the law are trying to discover
the perpetrators of a series of infa-
nous outrages committed recently
by dozen or more drunken men on
well-behaved people. The scoun-
drels mounted and masked went to
the house of Eli Reed, in SpringiH!,
Greene county, and tarred and feath-
cred both him and his wife. From
there they went to the house of
Armstrong Sexton and treated him
and his wife the same way. They
tried to do the like tn Jonn Petit,
an old soldier, but found they had
met the wrong man. From there
they went to the house of Sarah
Roads, widow, and after tarring
and feathering her son, insulted her
and threw her into a wood pile.
They then crossed over into West
Virginia, and after shameful treat
ment of widow named Wisbery,
tarred and feathered her. What
motive there was for all this cannot
be imagined, unless it be drunken
devilishness.

Lynchipg A Wife Murderer.

LITTLE Rock, Ark, June IA
special from Russellyille, Ark, SAYS !:
Last night between II and 1 o'clock
an armed crowd OF twenty-five men,
thought to be from franklin county
and to be friends of the murdered
women, (Alrs. Emory took posses
sion of the Dover, Pope county, Jail
and hanged Call Emory, the mur-
derer, whose death sentence Govern
or Churchill a few weeks since COM

onment in the penitentiary. Emo
ry resisted and was shot in the head.
1t is supposed that he was dead
when hanged. This was the third
attempt to lynch him. Emory had
been found guilty of the murder of
his wife and sentenced to be hang
ed, but Governor Churchill had
commuted his sentence as above
mentioned.

A Huge Land Purchase.


PnstADELpHIA, June l6.--,shat
is claimed to be the largest pur-
chase of land ever made by single
individual in the world occurred TO-
day, when Hamilton Dlsston, u
prominct manufacturer of this city,
closed Il contract by which he Sc
cured four million acres Of land
from the state OF Florida. This
huge transaction has been II nego-
tiation for some months, and Its
success was owing TO some very
shrewd tactics on the part oil the
agents of Mr. Disston. The land
acquired-a tract nearly as large as
the state .of New jersey part
of the public domain OF the state oi
Florida, and under control OF the
board OF internal improvement OF
state Owing to the recent improy-
ed value of the land of Florida this
property has been anxiously looked
after by capitalists of New York
and Boston. For years through
agents these gentlemen have endeay-
ored to purchase the land. The
state had no disposition to sell until
recently, when it became necessary
to do so to relieve the state from
certain obligations which had be-
comc burdensome. The contract
has been fully executed, and the
young Philadelphia manufactures
is now the pessessor of the largest
landed domain in the world. Thc
tract is situated north of Lake Oket-
chobe, and is nearly all below the
frost line. The amount paid for the
land has not been made public. but
it is understood to be a very large
sum in cash. 1t is Mr.. Disston's 5
intention to at once begin an emf
grafton scheme, which will result in
a very large addition to the popula-
ton of Florida. To this end he has
already established agencies in sew
eral places in this country, and viii
at once organize emigration bu-
reaus in England, Scotland, France,
Germany, Holland and Italy.

sevcntcen-year Locusts.

WASHINGTON, June 14.-Prof. G.
V. Riley finds his prediction with
regard 70 the seventeen-year locusts
verified by their appearance within
a few days in various localities
He made report some time ago on
the subject, based mainly upon an
unpublished manuscript of the late
DR.. Gibson Smith, Of Baltimore,
Nd, who made life study of these
insects. From this list it appears
that brood of seventeen-year To-
Gusts should mature this year in
certain parts of Wisconsin,, North
Carolina, Virginia, Northern Ohio,
and q few in Lancaster county, Pa,
and Westchester county, New York /;
the brood known as the thirteen
year locusts was to be expected this
year quite generally throughout the
South. The two broods have little
or no specified difference, but divide
on geographical lines.

Burned to Death.

New YORK, June 15.-Fire broke
out this afternoon in the bonded
warehouses in Brooklyn near the
Wall street Ferry, known as the
Pierrepont stores, and soon got be-
yond control. 1t was first discover
ed among some bags of damaged
linseed, when the workmen in the
warehouses endeavored to extin-
guish it but were driven out. One
of their number named Patrick Nor
ris was caught by the flames and
burned to death. Another workman
named Thomas Ryan jumped from
the third story window, receiving in
juries which will probably prove fa-
tai. Warehouses Nos. 4 and 5 of the
Pierrepont stores were almost en-
tirely burned out. After burning
two hours the flames were got under
control and the charred remains of
Morris were found. Henry +.
Pierrepont, Jr., in his efforts to cx-
tinguish the fire was severely burned
about the hands and came near los
ing his life. The warehouses were
owned by Henry E. Pierrepont & Co,
and the total loss is estimated Mt
100000.

The boy Preacher"

INDIANAPOLIS, June 13.-Eleven
weeks ago tonight the boy preacher
Evangelist, Rev. Thomas Harrison
began revival IN Roberts Park
Church (Methodist) in this city.
The first night he predicted that over
1000 conversions would be made
that all the churches would be
thrown open, and that the city
would be stirred in every part. The
larger churches have been crowded
to their utmost capacity, and many
have been unable to get admittanco.
At meeting of the Ministerial As
sociation this morning the total
number of conversions is reported
at about 2200. In Roberts Park
the number is said to be 1889, and
hundreds are unable to gain adj
mittance to the meetings. Sixteen
churchs are now open for revival
work. The use of all the theatres
has been rendered for Sunday SER
vice.

AxD now there's . hitch over the
election of United. States Senator
in New Hampshire. Upon the qucs-
ton whether the successor Of Mr..
Rollins, whose term viii expire in
March, 1883, should be elected now,
the two Houses differ, the Senate
thinking he should, and the House
declaring otherwise. One explana-
ton of the differences of opinion is
that Mr.. Rollins considers that 4
majority Of the Repub,icans in the
present Legislature are his friends,
thus insuring his re election, while
other candidates and aspirants,
among them Bill Chandler, (who
was recently rejected by the I. S.
Senate for The place of Solicitor
General) consider that their chances
would be better in new Legislature.
The Supreme Court Judges, upon
the question being addressed them,
handed down the opinion that the
election should take place at the
present session. But the lower
House Of the Legislature refuses to
90 into an election at present, while
the Senate has commenced ballot
ing.
