Don't stand in Your own Light.

The people of Ridgway generally
are noted for enterprise and open
handed generosity. Perhaps as much
so as any community that exists any
where. This being an acknowledge
fact speaks volumes for the character
of its inhabitants. We all desire the
prosperity and advancement of the
material interests of the place, there
fore all hands should take hold when
an opportunity presents itself to fur
ther these interest. And when such II
time comes dent stand in your own
light. The Rochester & Pittsburg r.
r. Co., a strong company under the
Presidency of Mr.. Walston II. Brown,
of Pittsburgh, are building q road
through our Borough which will he
when completed one of the best equip
| ed roads in the country. The entire
road from Buffalo to Brookville is now
located and great deal of the grading
already completed, and contracts will
be let in short time for the grading
of the entire line. From Ridgway to
the mouth of Toby the road is nearly
ready for the ties. And now 600 men
are employed between Bradford and
Salamanca, while nearly 900 men are
at work south of Ridgway. The bridge
across the Clarion at Halls farm
which will be $50 feet long, or two
spans of l75 feet each, to be built Of
iron is to he putup ut once. This bridge
is the longest of any on the route ex-
cepting the long iron bridge near
Springville, Cattaraugus county, NY,
across Cattaraugus Creek, which will
he 5l4 feet long and 140 feet high and
will cost masonary and all $4,000
Even the bridges across culverts will be
of iron. Mr.. Rees of this place has
the contract for one across Island Run,
and has the job nearly completed.
The rails on the entire line will be of
steel and 60 lbs. to the yard excepting
on heavy grades where the rails will
be 67 lbs. to the yard, all along this
company have acted as though they
mcnt business, and they still continue
to push the work as fast as the
weather will permit. RiGgway is at
the end of division and is located
Just right for the location of round
house and machine shops. These
shops would bring class of skilled
mechanics with their families to swell
the population of our Borough. And
would add more to the wealth and
prosperity of the town than any inn
provemeut ever made here. Hundreds
of men would make their home
here and thousands of dollars would
find their way into the Golfers of our
citizens. Another thing these shops
would be a substantial improvement,
and lasting one. Look at Remove
for instance where large town has
been created solely by having the p. d
f. shops located there. Ridgway has
the chance now by little effort to
have the b & Z. shops here and
little effort will secure the prize. De-
lays are dangerous. And some other
town may. get in ahead? VIII our
men of capital act in this matter?
Even if it should cost few dollars
willy you not be repaid ten fold. Who
will have the enterprise to head a
pupular movement which shall not lag
until we secure the best prize Ridgway
has had offered in many day? Talk
it up on every corner, for this matter
is one of the greatest concern to us all.
All together then and we will win.

Sickly Justice.
(Temple starr

Generally, when a poor man is ar
rested for getting drunk and making II
disturbance, he is dragged into court,
given hasty trial. and is either fined
or sent to jail right away.
When one of the fellows who deal in
the stuff that makes men drunk and
disorderly is arrested, he manages to
get the case postponed from time to
time, and nearly always gets clear.
The laws defects help him out. He
has money. He can get the best legal
talent. An undotted i, or a misspell-
ed word, or bit of perjury, or some
thing else is almost sure to turn up in
his favor.
This may sound rough and harsh,
but is nevertheless truth in nine cases
out of ten. One or two things will
happen sooner or later. Liquor will rule
America or the people Will rise in
their might and put final stop to the
sale, manufacture, and importation OF
the cause of most of the crime, misery
and shame.

Some boys of Grand Haven, Wis,
provided themselves with a magic
lantern and announced a spiritualistic
seance in which wonderful manifesto
tions were promised. A party, mainly
composed of credulous and ignorant
villagers were awe struck by theappear-
ance on the wall of the darkened room
of portraits which the bogus medium
declared were those deceased persons,
and which some of the spectators be-.
heved they recognized as departed rel
ativesand friends. The exposure came
when some one threw down the eabi-
net.

ted to await the action of the May
term of court. Part of the stolen goods
have been recovered.

Monday evening there was a row
at Johnsonburg between railroad men.
Hungarians on one side and Germans
and Irish on the other, which resulted
in a German having his skull cracked.
He remained unconscious for four
hours but is likely to recover. An
Irishman received a severe scalp
wound. He showed great pluck and
fought against half dozen Hunga-
rians but their clubs finally brought
him down. He will likely recover.
The account of the wounded on the
Hungarian side has not been received
up to the hour of going to press. DIR.
w. 4. Williams dressed the wounds.

Captain FOrsythe Taking 1t Easy
The Military Severely Criticized
Mckenzie About to Take Com
mand.

-McAenZle ABOUT 10 rake Com
mand.
LoRDsBURG, n. NJ, April 25.-l0. A.
M No news of Importance has been re-
ceived from Doubtful Canyon since yes
terdays dispatches. Forsythe is re-
ported to be in camp, on the east side Of
STEMS Peak range, taking things very
easy, and affording the hostiles
every facility for escape. 1t now
looks very much as if we
were to have another grand military
farce over this Indian question. That
the troops had the Indians completely
surrounded at Doubtful canyon and
Horseshoe canyon ON Saturday night
last, is no question, and if they are al
lowed to escape now the fact will be a
lasting disgrace to our so-called militia
ny commanders and the efficiency of our
army as Indian fighters.
ARRIVAL OF WOUNDED SOLDIERS.
Four wounded soldiers were brought
in last night by private conveyances sent
out from here for the purpose. They
were Sergt. Worby, Co. c, shot through
the left lung just below the heart; wound
probably fatal. Private M. D. Leonard,
right leg broken below the knee and
shot through the left ankle. Privates
Downey and Sullivan, Co. H, all of the
Fourth Cavalry, flesh wounds in left
thighs. The wounded were forwarded
to the hospital at Ft. Cummings by rail
this morning.
REPORTS FROM THE FRONT.
An unconfirmed report is current OF
two prospectors having been killed yes
terday fourteen miles north of here on
the ella road. Mckenzie is said to be
en- route to join Forsythe and take COM
mand in person.

ESPECIAL TO THE HERALD
.Anti-Chinese Convention.

SAN Francisco, April 25.--The Anti
Chinese State Convention met last night
under the auspices of the Trades Assem-
bly,. The attendance was large. ). X.
Wilson called the meeting to order and
explained that the object of the Conven-
ton was to devise means for stopping
the Chinese invasion. Henry Warden
was chosen temporary chairman. A
Committee on Credentials was up
pointed. An address from the Knights
of Labor was read and number of
speeches were made. The report of the
Committee on Credentials showed repre-
sentatives of the following organizations
in the interior present: Ruby Hill
Miners Union; Gold Hill Miners Union;
Mechanics Union of Story county, Ne
vada; North Bloomfield Miners Union;
Moore's Flat Miners Union; Cherry
Creek Miners Union; besides great
number of San Francisco labor organiza-
tions. The report favored the exclusion
of the delegates of the San Francisco
Socialistic Labor Party, of the jewelers.
of San Francisco, of the Anti-Chinese
leagues and of the Amalgated Labor
Club of Oakland. This caused noisy
episode and the matter was finally laid
over until this evening.

Blaine Coming Out Ahead-The
Election.

| CHICAGO, April PA Washington
special says: 1t is generally felt to-day
that Blaine came out triumphant in the
Shipherd affair. Belmont's attack upon
him is recognized as indirectly the
work of Blaine's political enemies in his
own party, Belmont having been made
a catspaw by the Conkling men. Blaine
is evidently coming out of the investi-
cation in excellent shape. 1t is proba-
BILE that whole week will be spent
over the election cases, perhaps longer.
The Democrats are determined to fight
it out to the bitter end. They say they
never will consent to see q colored man
take the place of Chalmers if they can
help it.
