how the names were derived no one

were named for early inhabitants

Bath Times: While there is no
doubt a good deal of dissatisfaction on
the part of the Senators and Repre-
sentatives with the present location of
the State capital, to change that loca-
ton would be a serious step of which
the advisability is by no means clear.
Augusta is centrally located, which is
q great point in it's favor. There is no
other city in the State which is so adj
vantageously placed in this respect.
Again, the State has good many hun
bred thousand dollars invested in Au-
gusta in the way of government build
ings. which would be a loss in the
event of removal. to say nothing of the
expense of new buildings in a new 10
cation. Such buildings would, with
out doubt, be vastly more expensive
than those now in use. Historic asso-
citation is another obstacle in the way
of removal and a fourth is the jeal-
ousy between the eastern and western
parts of the State as represented by
Portland and~Bangor. Senator Hyde's
proposition to remove the seat of ne
State government, then, is scarcely
likely to come to anything, and we are
doubtful whether it would be for the
advantage of the State if it should.

Policeman Kills.

Policeman Michael Crowley, of Re.
novo, shot and killed a young man
named William Ryan, at Remove, last
Friday night, shortly after II o'clock.
Ryan and party of young men
were told togo home and cease their
rowdyism by the policeman when
Ryan struck the officer, knocking him
down. Upon regaining his feet Ryan
again felled him to the ground, when
the officer pulled his gun, almost in
stantly killing his man. The police.
man was arrested and placed in Lock
Haven Jail. The prisoner makes a
statement, claiming that he defended
himself when repeatedly assaulted by
the young men, who were intoxicated.
The funeral of young Ryan took place
at Lock Haven on Monday.

and nursing, to help elect Teddy

License in Coudersport.

Coudersport appears to be on earth
yet, even fisk licensed places are in
full blast and "bug juice" is sold for the
first time in forty years. If Empori-
um's seventeen licensed places were
reduced to six it would be hailed with
delight 1t may be some day and GER
tainly will be if open violation of the
law continues, especially on the Sab
bath. 1t has now reached the point
where further tolerance will not be
tolerated. There isa way to force a
proper observance of the law. The
people of this town have exhausted
what patience was left after promise of
more strict observance.

EMPORIUM, PA. THURSDAY, JULY O. 1908.
A Common Enemy.


Remove and Emporium papers are
amusing themselves and furnishing a
job lot of adjectives. The causus bel
lum is smallpox. The present pitched
battle was superinduced by the fact
that Robinson's show passed Remove
by, after having arranged a date for
that town, and erecting it's tents in the
suburbs of Emporium instead. 1t is
not pleasant for a newspaper to have
visions of pass to see the elephant
grind peanuts, withstand the atrocities
ofthe clown and bask in the effervesc-
ent smile of the trick mule.
But as the Remove editor does not
care to air these grievances, showing
the disappointment he naturally ought
to feel, the pivot on which this news
paporial controversy should rotate was
made smallpox. AS both these towns
have had this disease more or less dur
ing the winter and spring months and
neither cared to acknowledge the fact,
the discussion becomes of peculiar in
terest.
And yet the discussion should not be
of special Importance even to the
parties directly interested. Getting
the "go-by" from a show may be dis
appointing, but getting the 'go-by"
from an epidemic of smallpox next
season is undoubtedly paramount and
the present discussion could very pro-
perly give way to practical advice and
suggestion to the people on how to
avoid recurrence ofthe disease.
There is danger of minimizing the
danger that mas existed and that now
exists from smallpox in this county
1t would be idle to try to controvert
the fact that considerable number of
cases of smallpox have existed. This
season of the year. being conducive to
outdoor life, is unfavorable to the
spread of the disease. But the germs
are in existence nevertheless and moth
in but extreme vigilance in disinfecting
and vaccinating will prevent an
outbreak in the fall. This is a truth
with which there should be no hesita-
tion or shiily shallvipg. Smallpox
does not ask ''By your permission"
when it comes.
1t is an enemy that must be fought
and fought wherever it is found, for it
is a common enemy.-Lock Haven
Times.

some sweet ~ music Then amid
shower of rice and and best wishes of a
host of friends, the happy couple took
their departure for their future home
