The county wants to expend about
80, 900 on the roads. II would take
nearly that much, probably, to rebuild
some of the fills that wash away
every few months. So far as bene-
fits are concerned, however, the
county might as well spend no mon
ey at all on the roads. They are
ruined every winter just as regularly
as the bad weather comes.

Mr.. ". J. Bryan still poses as an
oracle for the Democrats, and one of
his letters, written to politician in
Chattanooga, has just been made pub
lie, in which he discourages the fool
ish effort to make the keeping OF sol
diers' graves as campaign issue, and
saws: II am afraid that so long as l
live | will be accused OF having am
bition; however, the TACT that lam ed
iting a paper and exposing the re-or-
ganizers ought to convince people that
| am not planning for personal prefer
ment. While believe that the Dem
ocratic party would quite generally be
in favor of taking care OF the Confed'
crate graves along with the graves Of
the Union soldiers, am satisfied thai
if it were put forth as campaign is
sue il would arouse bitterness which
might delay reforms far more import
ant TO the southern people. The car
of the Confederate graves is
patriotic duty. and one that tn
southern people would not be willin
TO have entirely turned over to tn
Federal authorities, and there ar
certain great reforms which are @
great pecun,ary value to the people @

ROPE BREAKS AT HANGING.-CieOrg,
Robertson was hanged at Wise Cour
House yesterday for numbering hi
brother several months ago. Fully
3, 900 persons were present and watched
the execution. His trial created the
greatest interest in the neighborhood
where the murder was committed. 1t
was promptly at noon that the trap was
dropped. Robertson fell, but his weight
was too great for the rope, and 1t pare
ed, letting him fall to the ground with
out his being seriously injured. \
second time the rope was tied around the
mans neck, and this time the pulley
would not work. As Robertson dropped
through the hole when the rope was re
leased. he screamed in agonizing tones:
ooh it is terrible TO be butchered this
wav." In about Il half an hour the
doctors pronounced the man dead.
Several of the witnesses of the failure
were made sick by the unsightly affair,
and the doctors were kept busy admins
tering restOratiyes to them.
Richard Foy, colored, the murderer
of Dayton Miller was repriyed by the
Governor until the 29th Of August when
he will hang unless further clemency be

PROBABLE OPENING OF MINES.

PROBABLE OPENING OF MINES.
As was stated in Yesterdays Gazette,
there is Il wide zone of absolute quiet IN
and around Shenandoah, Pa, and the
!. 800 National Guardsmen who are the
canse thereof are putting in their time
with target practice and regimental
drills. The camp is on hill in the
outskirts, and though the khaki UNI
forms are always in sight on the streets
of the town. the soldiers are not so all
pervading as was the case when they
we're called to Shenandoah by the out
break during the strike or 1900. The
conduct of the men thus far has been
admirable, both as to sobriety and gen
eral soldicrly good behavior.
The great question the presence OF
the troops has raised is whether, under
their protection, there will be an effort
made oresume the mining ofcOal. There
is no doubt the fact that the troops were
called out hastcned the opening OF the
Oxford and Cayuga mines yesterday at
West Scranton, the former with force
of 12O men and the latter with sixty.
President Crawford, of the People =
Coal Company, operating the Oxford
mine. gave notice several days ago that
all who wished to go to work in the
mine must report by this evening, but
the arrival of the troops seemed to put a
spur upon the operators movements and
coal was mined both in the Oxford and
Cayuga mines all day without opposition.
Crowds gathered about the mines but
there were no offensive demonstrations.
With the troops remaining at Shenan-
doah it is very prol able that mining will
be begun in that vicinity in the early
part ofnext week Preparations to that
end are now under way. In Hazleton
Yesterday there was little or 10 talk oi
reopening mines, but it is believed that
there is a good prospect Of such at
tempts being made all along the line
next week.
