Sm0KEH0USES RAIDED.
Candidates for the Penilentiary Have
Been Canvassing in Belfast Township.

For the encouragement of those
who have been losing sleep prowl-
ing around, and breaking into
smokehouses in Belfast township
during the past week or two, we
wish to state that Judge Gillian,
a few days ago in Cham bersburg,
gave a fellow SIX years in the penn.
tentiary for stealing few chick
ems. Now, if a chicken thief gets
six years, the fellow who breaks
into a smoke house and takes all
the meat a man has stored up for
his children, and that he has none
to fry for his neighbors when
they come In to take a meal-if
thai fellow would get into Judge
Swope's hands, he would be hang.
ed ia about two minutes.
These few feeble thoughts have
been suggested by information
just received that some midnight
thief broke into w. Il. uart's
smoke house at Needmore, last
week, and next morning there
was not enough bacon left to
grease the buckwAeat griddle.
The same thing happened at the
home of Walk Mellott. Later de.
spatches say that G.. Johnson
Mellott, at Gem, was also among
the victims, whose family will
have to breakfast on fish, and
grease the griddle> with potato.
1t is about time that the Belfast
people would arise and run down
the scoundrels who have been do.
ing this kind of business. This
meat stealing has been going on
now for several years, aud the
sooner the thieves are in the pen
the better it will be for the town
ship.

The orange and pineapple cul.

TEACHER UP AGAINST IT.
Attorney General Carson Says Schools
Are Open to Vaccinated Children Oulv


Attorney General Carson last
week sent a letter to a Berks
county man, who had querled HIM
on the Vaccination law, In which
he emphatlcally declared that the
school is no place for an unvaccin.
ated pupil. The letter is terse.
but stronger than those which
the Attorney General has ISSUED
on the subject.
The letter was addressed TO
Levy N. Christian, Strausstown.
Berks county, and says
"Replylng to your letter |
answer that 1t is the imperative
duty imposed by statute, sus.
tanned by the Supreme Court
upon every teacher to exclude an

are open to vaccinated children
only, and that any teacher who
tolerates the presence of an un.
child, or fails to re.

vaccination or previous case of
smallpox, is a violator of the law.

WISHART REUNION.
very Pleasant Social Occasion in The
Home OF Mr.. and Mrs. Harvey Wish.
art in Wells Valley.

Last Thursday was day that
meant much to the Wishart fam
lily in this county. While it is
their custom to have an annual
family reunion, the average @ AGE
OF the brothers and sisters is now
66 years, and as each reunion dav
comes around and finds the lives
OF all the members spared during
another year, there is especial
cause for thanksgiving. The re
union is held at the old Wishart
Homestead, now the property and
residence of Harvey Wishart, and
no more lifting spot on this green
earth could be selected for such
an occasion. The boys and girls
of more than SIX decades ago,
whose bare feet pattered in the
dusty road that passes the house,
or bathed IN the stream that
flows down through the meadow,
were permitted again to be seat.
ed around the old family board
and recallthe in,ldentsand scenes
OF the days of auld lang sine.
Six brothers and sisters were
present, namely, Samuel p, Har-
vey, Henry s., John A., Mrs.
David Horton, and MISS Kate.
Miss Jessie Wishart, of Pitts
burg, and Miss Sadie Dickson, Of
McConnelIsburg, we're among tho
other guests present.

HUGE CAMPAIGN EXPENDITURES

Although the reports have not ali
| ord in New York Of more than $1,000
600 that was spent for political pur.
poses during the recent state cam.
paign. 1t is estimated that the total
expenditures OF all parties In the state
exceeded three times that figure.
The publication of the totals. TO.
sether with the names OF the leading
contributors, is the best proof Of the
usefulness OF the law which makes it
necessary. The people have much
better understanding OF the how and
why of politics with such facts before
them than they have when they get
only rumors of doubtful validity about
such matters.
1t must not he thought that these
large expenditures we're all or even
mainly for improper purposes. When
jerome was elected district attorney
In New York as an Independent after
a campaign conducted by men of In.
tegrity rs high as can ever he looked
Tor In political or other affairs. the
books showed that his campaign fund
had amounted to 100000. which had
been received from $500 contributors.
II costs money, and lots of 1t. to get
facts before voters and to get voters
stirred up to act.
We may not look forward to time
when campaigns can be conducted
without funds, but we certainly may
look forward to time when every
where campaign funds Will be handled
in the full light of publicity. We may
look forward to time when no
money will be given which the giver
Is ashamed Of and little or none spent
which the spender is ashamed Of
To help on the coming of that time
publicity laws similar to New Yorks
should be adopted in all the states,
and congress this coming winter
should pass the Legislation now pend
ing TO cover federal eiections.-Re
