C. II. Prescott, viii Build a Saw Mill.

Rev. g. III. Prescott, Of Cleveland,
after whom the town OF Prescottville,
jefferson county, is named and who Is
well known in Dubois and throughout
this section Of the state, owns tract Of
land, between Dubois and Reynoldsville,
containing | 100 acres and estimated to
have 100000 feet OF timber on it.
Mr.. Prescott proposes to put his timber
on the market and commence saving
this year. For some time he has been
negotiating with parties In town in re-
gard thereto. He proposes to put in a
large, modern saw mill on the site Of
the old Spears mill, less than a mile
south of the borough limits, on the road
between Dubois and West Liberty. He
has already made proposition to
President Wayman in regard to extend
ing the street Railway line along
Heberling run from the borough line to
the mill and hauling the lumber over
II to the b., r.. & Z. or A. V. railways
He is asking the Wilson Bros. and j.
j. DAILY to open new street along the
proposed railway line and plot it for
building lots. Mr.. Prescott proposes to
build quite town near the mill. The
new opening into Rochester mine near
the Bell, Lewis & Yates shaft has
already created a demand for miners
homes in that locality. The majority
of the men go to work via the new open
ing and quite little town will spring
up there in the near future.-DuBois

An Active Life Ended.

George w. Arnold, brother of our
townsman, F. X. Arnold died at his
home in Clarion last Friday afternoon
from the effects of stroke of paralysis.
He was born in York county, Pa, in
1920 and was in his 10Th year. He start
ed out for himself very early in life.
When twenty-one or Twenty-Five years
old, he went into Clarion county to
clerk in a store, and from that time on
fortune smiled upon him and he amassed
much of this worlds goods. He engaged
quite extensively in the lumber
business. In 1865 the First National
bank was organized in Clarion and he
was made cashier. The last fifteen
years he has been president of the bank.
He assisted in the organization of the
Carrier Seminary aud State Normal
School at Clarion, and it was through
his efforts, largely, that the p. & w.
II. r. was built to that town. He was
very shrewd business man, but was
always strictly honest in his dealings.
Politically he was Republican;
religiously he was a Methodist.

First Arrests.

II was announced In THE STAR last
week that at the last meeting OF town
council IL was decided TO enforce
ordinance No. I, which has been wink
ed at by those In authority ever since IL
became borough law. This ordinance
forbids making noise, confusion or
using obscene language on streets,
behaving disorderly, lounging or loaf
ing on streets, &c, &c. BY Saturday
night the boys had either forgotten
that IL had been announced that the
ordinance would be inforced or they
thought IL was bluff and they we're
running on Main street having a good
time, regardless Of how many people
they would jolt up against or how much
noise they were making. After nine
o'clock Policeman Shields "nabbed''
two boys out Of a gang OF seven or eight
and took them TO the lookup. They
were only in about fifteen minutes until
the father Of one Of the boys demanded
hearing. The hour being late before
they were ready for hearing the boys
we're bound over for their appearance
before Esq. Hays on Monday evening.
They had hearing Monday evening
and were fined one dollar apiece and
each one to pay half the costs.
There is entirely too much running
on Main street In the evening by boys,
who In the excitement to get away
from one another, forget that there ls
any other persons on the street, and
collisions are frequent. The ordinance
is alright and the boys should be given
to understand that they must obey IL.
However, serve all alike, and II will be
only matter Of a short time until they
will obey the ordinance.

Come, Let Us Reason Together.

Just why there are so many business
men in this place who get their job
printing done outside of Reynoldsville,
Is something we cannot understand.
The STAR office is well equipped to do
neat job work and our prices are as
reasonable as many OF the outside offices
that get the work OF some OF our
business men. The editor of THE STAR
and the employees OF the Office spend
their money in Reynoldsville, some OF
it with the very men who send their
money to other towns for job work.
We could send away and buy some
goods cheaper than we can buy them
in this town, but we want TO be con-
sistent with what we advocate in THE
STAR, that is patronize home industries.
Some OF the business men would very
likely think we ought to move out Of
town II we should send away for the
food and raiment we need. Is it not as
fair for one as for the other? II this
Office received its share of the patronage
that is sent to other towns, we could
hire more help than we now employ,
enlarge our Office and put more money
into circulation in Reynoldsville. Some
people of this place seem to think a
printing Office should stand up for the
town, advocate a law to keep all the
pedlars out who handle their line of
goods, say nice things about them
occasionally, &C., &C., but they never
give the Office any work; perhaps sub
scribe for the paper. Thank the Lord
all the business men OF Reynoldsville
are not built that way. We all want 10
see better times in Reynoldsville this
coming summer, and we believe we will,
therefore, to help this along let the
business men resolve to patronize the
home printing offices, all our citizens
patronize home merchants, everybody
who borrows his neighbors paper sub
scribe and get his own paper every
week, and thus by helping one another
We will build up the business OF our
town. The editor of this paper is not
suffering from dyspepsia, nor have we
the pouts, but the above article has
been written because it may be possible
some people have been sending their
job work out Of town or sending out OF
town to buy goods who have never con.
sidered the matter as they should have
done. There are people who send away
for dry goods which they can buy just
as cheap at home. Remember when
your money goes to any other town II
lessons the money circulation of Reyn'
oldsville just that much. Help one
another.

puNxs'Y BALLOT CONTEST.
One Hundred and Eleven Ballots Abb
suacted or Stolen Out OF Box.


The court convened on Thursday Of
last week for the purpose Of hearing
and dsposing OF an election contest
from Punxsutawney borough. Ben
Record, the Democratic candidate FOR
constable, according to the return made
by the election board, was defeated by IA
small majority at the recent February
election. He and many Of his friends
claimed that there had not been a true
count Of the ballots cast In the North
election precinct, and this suspicion was
strengthened by evidence Of the ballot
box having been broken open two days
after the election.
The time Of the court was taken up
on Thursday hearing evidence Of a
fraudulent count, and Of the ballot box
being broken open, and after argument
on Friday morning the court decided
that the contents Of the ballot box
should be examined IN open court. This
examination disclosed the fact that 374
remained In the box, the balance hav.
| ing been distracted or stolen. or the
263 ballots remaining in the box /. N.
| Graffius, Republican candidate for consta-
BILE, had 100, and Ben Record, Democrat,
142, I Of the ballots being blank, and 8
OF them for both candidates for consta-
hla opd tharofor. ,ya,a mt nn,,,ta1
The numbers on the 263 ballots in the
box were then disclosed and checked
| from the list Of voters by the court; and
the remaining unchecked numbers re-
vealed the names OF the voters who had
cast the III ballots that were missing
from the box, and we're announced by
the court. An auditor was then ap-
pointed TO go to Punxsutawney and
take the testimony Of these III persons
as TO how they had voted, and make
further investigation as to frauds
charged and report to the court the
result Of such investigation.
Record and his friends are sanguine
OF success, as he has a majority Of AZ in
the South precinct and needs but II OF
the III missing ballots to give him a
majority in the borough.
The investigation demonstrates many
commendable features in our election
laws. The secrecy Of the ballots re-
naming in the box was not disclosed.
That the ballot box was broken open is
now apparent, and when a report is rem
dered from the III voters whose ballots
were not in the box the motive for med
ding with the ballot box may in meas
ure be revealed.
A thorough investigation should be
made, and the will of the people of our
neighboring town as expressed in the
ballot box should be ascertained and
sustained. When confidence in the
the purity OF the ballot box becomes
shaken, and the will Of our people as
expressed at the polls is trampled upon,
then we are on the road to treason and
anarchy, rapine and blood.
