A VIOLENT LOVER.
Miss Emma Wierman's Life
Threatened.

A special dispatch from Cumber-
land, Md, says:
Joseph +. Hollar, charged With
carving concealed weapons by Miss
Emma Wiermsn, rho moved to Cum
berlaud several years sgo from near
Winchester, took al appeal to court
from the decision of Justice Gordon,
which made it all the worse for him.
Hollsr contended in court that he
and Miss Wierman had been lovers
for eight years and were engaged.
This the young lady denied, and said
that because she received the alten-
ton of another, Hollar became infu-
rated. Hollar met Miss Wierman
on the street or two different occa-
sions and threatened 10 shoot her.
throwing open his coat and display
ing revolver. A letter written by
Hollar was displayed in court. 1t
was addressed TO Miss Wierman. and
In it he threatened to kill her if she
did not marry him. He said he was
not blufTing, and as God was his
judge he would execute bis threat.
He attempted to:iexplain away his
letter by saying that he was only
joking and that the revolver belonged
to his brother, a man having given it
to him to hand to ms brother.
Judge Williams promptly found
Hollar guilty. and in imposing a
sentence Of two years in the House
of Correction. he severely lectured
the prisoner, saving that it was a
serious state Of affairs when Young
lahv could not walk along the street
In a civilized community without
having her life threatened He then
read the law in reference to the
offense ard said: ''rhis Is not the

A new JAIL.

The necessity for new Jail, with
Accommodations for prisoners much be-
county. has forced itself upon the
board of county commissioners. Not
only is the present Jail un safe but all
other conditions attached thereto are
such that no longer compel the coun-
ty to be so lily supplied with place
violate the law, is somewhat in the
nature of scandal
The Jail has no Accommodations what
ever for women and few for men. 1t
has no sanitation worthy the name.
1t would not hold any desperate pris-
oner more than ten minutes, if it was
not for the very watchful care of the
Jail keeper
Such conditions might be excusable
in county which was bankrupt or
whose credit had been impaired by
previous extravagances. But Mesa
county is not in either condition and
bonds could be voted by the people for
the erection of Jail of adequate pro-
portions to fulfill the needs of the
county, not only for the present, but
for future years.
The Sentinel is never found advo-
eating the expenditure of money for
extravagances. But the necessity of
having Il county Jail is great and it
cannot be counted in any wise an ex-
trvagance. There should be no need
of urging upon the county commits
sioners the need of a jail they are
doubtless better apprised of the neces-
sity than the Sentinel. They have
waited, hoping that we could get
along with what we had, for the time
other conditions at the county Jail are
such, that they are nov brought face
to face with the matter and must meet
and provide what is an actual neces-
sity.
We do not believe that the board of
county commits ;ioners should put off
| any longer the building of Jail and
| the sooner they meet the que stion and
dispose of it the better it will be for
the community at large. The publ ic
is entitled to consideration in the
matter and we believe that the board
will see what are present conditions
and provide shortly for the erection
of jail, of which we are actually in
need, considering the size and intiu.
ence of Mesa county.

PATTISON THE LEADER
NAMED FOR GOVERNOR BY
 PENNSYLVANIA DEMOCRATS.
For the Third Tine in Twenty Years He Secures Nomination--N.- tional Issues are Ignored.
 Fusion in Nebraska.

Erie. Pa, June 25.-For the third time in 20 years Governor Robert Pattison of Philadelphia was nominated for Governor today by the Democratic State conven- tion.
 G. w. Guthrie of Pittsburg was the unanimous choice of the convention for Lieutenant Governor. James Nolan of Reading was nominated by exclamation for Secretary of Internal Affairs.
 The platform makes no reference to national questions which indicates that the campaign will be made strictly on State issues.
 The other candidates for Governor were ex-Congressman Kerr of Cleariield; Colo mel John A. Woodward of Center Coun- ty and G. w. Guthrie of Pittsburg.
 After promising clean administration. the platform closes as follows:
 This Democratic convention valves all expression of opinion on question of national policy that might divert atten- tion from the pressing problems that confront the people of our own State or that might distract and divide the army of reform.'
