more iue1cusable because congress

FINALE.

The fight between the Reporter ard
JOURNAL willeease with the present
number as far as the latter is concern
ed. Having said all we had intended
to say from the beginning it would be
utterly fruitleSS, even foolish, TO pur-
sue the matter farther. Mr.. kurtz mad
the first word and the JOURNAL IS con
tent to give him the last. We ale en-
tirely satisfied with the lesalt. both
present AMI prospective. Both of us are
we'll known in this community and the
people will estimate us and our respect
i've papers more accurately than we can
do it ourselves. We rest our case with
the public and will not again be easily
provoked to reply to anything the Re
porter may say of us aud the JOUR-
NAL.
Touching -pious advice which Mr..
kurtZ gave us last week we most re-
spectfully decline to accommodate him,
however much we may be in his way.
Perhaps he can End some low, unprin-
cipled fellow, without travelling very
tdr, that actually did betray bis boast
ed principles and party for cash con-
sideratiou Of S300-more than Mr.. j.
Iscariot received-whO could with more
propriety take his kind suggestion into
affirmative consideration than the edi-
tor Of the JOURNAL.
Lastly we make due apology to our
patrons and readers for having been o.
bliged for time to lower the usual
chaste and dignified tone of the JOUR-
NAL away down tOrard the coarse and
rude rut in which the ''great and good

Half q Century in Jail.

William Stanford, known throughout
Fayette county, Pa, as "Crazy Billy"
died recently in the County Jail, where
he had been prisoner over tifty-one
consecutive years. In 1881 Billy drove
Alexander Crow and wife out of their
home in Spring Hill Township. The
neighbors came to Crows. rescue and
by strategy overpowered Billy, who was
armed with Crows gun, butcher.knife
and axe. Billy was sent to Jail at Un-
iontown for trial. Soon afterwards
William Updegraff was locked up for
drunkenness and during the night Billy
asked a stick of wood if he should kill
Updegraff. The stick said eyes" and
Billy crushed in the drunkard's skull
The following June Billy was tried and
acquitted of murder on account of in
sanity. For eighteen years he was
chained by the leg to the floor of his
cell. Since 1913 he has been allowed to
roam at will, being harmless. Eigh-
teen Sheriffs have gone in aud out of
