mer residents of Deck Park, met with
a serious accident Monday morning
while out cunning with his father in
the woods between Deer Park and

The two gentlemen had stopped for
a few minutes and the younger Pen.

of the gun against his right side when
the trigger became entangled in a
vine and exploded the charge the en-
tire load taking effect in his side tear
ing away the flesh and muscles down
to the abdominal covering and ex-
tending two inches below and three

He was taken as soon as possible
to his home at Deer Park where DR..
Mitchell, of Philadelphia. DIR. H. w.
McComas, of Oakland. and DR.. LINN
ger, of Deer Park rendered sur
gical aid to the young man, who is
about sixteen years of age.
While his wound was very Sc
rious his condition is favorable at
this time and it is thought that he
will recover. The accident was very
severe shock to his p.rents and his

GUN ACCIDENTALLY DISCHARGED
And Load of Shot Took Effect in the
Divine's Left Foot-Amputation
Was Performed at the Keyser
Hospital.

With the fall season for hunting
coming in accidents of a more or less
serious nature due to the careless
handling of shot guns may be ex-
pected as a natural consequence, the
first to occur in this section having
taken place near Bloomington, this
county, last Friday morning about
II O'Clock.
The victim was Rev. A. r. Snede-
gar, pastor of the Methodist Episco-
pal church at Bloomington, a mile

company with Mr.. Harry Baird, a
young man of that town, were going
through the woods on the outskirts
of the village, when the gU1 carried
by the latter was accidentally dis
charged, the load of shot entering Mr..
Snedegars left ankle and foot, LAGER
atlng it so badly that it was found
necessary to amputate the foot and
portion of his leg, the operation be-
ing performed at the Keyser hospital
the same evening to which place he
was accompanied by DR.. H. NJ. Kemp,
of Bloomington. who was assisted in
the work by the hospital corps of
physicians.
Mr. Snedegar is unmarried, ma
tive of Virginia and about thirty
seven years of age. He has been
stationed at Bloomington as pastor OF
the church there for about two years
where he is held in high esteem by
his parishioners as well as by mem
bers of other denominations. He has
brother residing at Roanoke, Va.

PnlD INDICATIONS
Of OIL APPARENT
In the Well Now Being Drilled at
Finzel in This Count.
CONSIDERABLE GAS ESCAPING
Hole Has Been Sunk to a Depth of
Over Fifteen Hundred Feet and
Stratas of Sand Beneath Which Oil
is Always Found Passed Through.

Last Saturday upon his visit to
Oakland Mr.. Patrick E. Finzel, of
Finzel, this county, who is manager
of the Piney Run Oil and Gas Com
pany, which corporation is now en-
gagged in putting down a well for oil
near Finzel, exhibited to a number of
gentlemen a bottle of bo~ings taken
from the well which gave off de-
cided odor of crude oil and was to all
appearances equal to behring's taken
from holes in well developed oil and
gas fields. Tu consequence of the
undisputed evidence of the existence
of oil in the territory under control of
Mr.. Fiuzel his many friends in Oak
land are highly gratifed.
The well is down to a depth of
about fifteen hundred feet aud there
is considerable gas escaping from the
hole. Nearly every strata of sand
covering oil producing beds in the
West Virginia and Pennsylvania
fields have been passed through and
at the depth of about twenty one
hundred feet the Gordon sand is ex-
pected.
The derrick and outfit in general is
built substantially. The tools weigh
more than a ton and the hole is being
bored at the rate of about % feet per
day. Mr.. FInzel stated that the engine
Will shortly be replaced by a larger
and heavier machine and then it is
expected that more rapid progress
will be made.
Should oil or gas in paying quanti-
ties be struck, and this is indeed prob
able. other wells in the same territory
be drilled as fast as men ard ma
,4als can be secured to do the work.

THE WAR WITH SPAIN.
Hypocrisy of a New England Repub
lican Platform.

For sublime effrOntery and unbIush-
ing f%alsehood, it would be hard to beat
this declaration which appears in the
platform of the New Hampshire Re-
publicans: 1.-THE Republican party,
since it was restored to power, has
fought a successful war with Spain"
1t is a matter of history that the Me-
Kinley Administration did everything
in its power to avoid a war with Spain,
but was forced to undertake it be-
cause of the popular agitation in favor
of it, which was shared alike by DEM
ocrats and Republicans in Congress
and by the press Of Doth parties. In
its inception the war was entirely
Just. There were at least as many
Democrats as Republicans actively
engaged in it, and the decisive blows
at Manila and Santiago were struck
by Dewey and Schley, both OF whom
are Democrats.
For what has been done in Cuba,
Porto Rico and the Philippines since
the wal was brought to a successful
conclusion, the Republican, party is
welcome to assume the responsibility.
These include the negotiation Ola
treaty with Cuba, which has helped
to make the Cubans u enemies fafh-
er than our friends; the suhjection or
the Filipinos, who were struggling he-
roically for freedom, and who were our
allies in driving Spain from the Isl
ands, the trampling under foot Of the
Declaration of Independence and the
buncoing Of the people of Porto, Rico.
who are now in a worse plight In.
some respects than they were when
under Spanish rule. And to, sum it
all mp, the Republican party is entitled
to- whatever credit it can get from the
substitution of imperialism" for CON
sti~tutionalism" and the addition Of
5000, 100000 to the oppressive BURDEN
Of taxation upon the Americas people,.

ROUSES SUSPICION.
Everlasting Habit of Republicans of
Grasping Credit For all Good.

Claiming all virtues for the Repub-
lican party, and telling what we
have done does not stop criticism, but,
rather, tends to arouse suspicion that
the charges made against Republican
policies and practice cannot be dis
proved. That the tariff fostered trusts
are plundering the people by greatly
increasing the cost of living is too pat
ent for a bold denial to count with a
voter, who is paying from thirty to
forty per cent. more for necessaries of
living than in 1897.
Claiming that wages have been adj
yanced at the same ratio as the cost
Of living will not convince the work
man that has had his wages reduced
that prosperity is rampant, although
Roosevelt may boast and Fairbanks
smilingly may say so.
Standing pat may suit the trusts, but
claiming that everything is so ia
vorable under Republican policies that
no change is needed is poor consolation
for those who find themselves being
plundered by the trusts, with their in
come standing still so that their abil
ity to pay has decreased one-third. II
is easy to- claim, But difficult to ex
plain whensthe facts are against you.

AGREES WITH PARKER:
Justice Brewers Attitude in Accord
With That of the Democratic
Candidate. ---

Mr.. Justice Brewer, Of the Supreme
Court. will get into trouble if he keeps
on talking as he did yesterday at st.
Louis about the Constitution VS.. the
Republican policy in the Philippines.
Why, he apparently takes the same
view as Judge Parker! This is in fiat
violation of the only common law that
the President knows-the law, name
ly. that good Republicans must swal-
low their convictions and support all
that he does. Judge Brewer should
remember that he was a Republican
before he was n jurist. He was not
put on the bench to furnish aid and
comfort to the Democrats. Imagine a
Republican Senate ever confirming his
appointment to the Supreme Court If
1t had imagined that he would baIk
at finding the law for whatever the
party wanted to do! The Justices we
dare say. would draw himself up if any
suggestion were made to him that he
ought to he a partisan on the bench,
and would rufle in Lord Coke's style
about doing "as becometh a judge"
but he should understand that we are
changing all that in these high-fying
days when a President announces that
he will pay no attention to any Consti-
~tutional provision which, in his opin-
ion. would reduce him to impotence"

Shows the Fraud of 1t.

How the tariff operates and the
trusts give our W people the worst of
it can hardly be better illustrated than
in the cas- Of steel rails sold in Can
ada and the United States. There is
a railway which runs along the border
between the two countries, sometimes
in its course being on this side and
sometimes across the border. 1t is re-
markable that rails for use on the
Canadian part of the Railway are sold
for $21 a ton, while those for use on
the American side cost the same road
$2S a ton. This = the case Of one
road. The New York Central is an
other railway which has to undergo
the same experience illustrative of the
inequalities Of the protective tariff
system, and how it operates against
the very people it proposes 10 protect.
