An Open Letter.

Citizens OF Cameron county, l want
you TO take notice of this item. We
had license court on the 18th day of
December. put in my petition for
license according to requirements of
law and was refused, but I can not
see why was refused. l think l
ought to be entitled to license. I am
the oldest hotel keeper here; all the
other hotels have changed hands
several times. l have had license
here for the last twenty years.
became citizen of the United
States thirty-six years ago and have
been good law abiding citizen. 1 do
not think any one can say anything
wrong about me and 1 do not think
there is anything fair about this DEAL
have worked hard for what little
have, and every dollar made is invest
ed In Emporium which every one can
see, and still 1 am investing. I pay
the largest individual tax of Cameron
county in dollars.
Ii would be no mere then right that
the citizens should uphold me. 1 am
disabled, having only one arm I can
not do manual labor. 1 lost my wife
over three years ago and 1 was left
with five children. Three are little
girls, going to st. Marys Academy,
and these 1 have to take care of. I
am under big expense.
1t is claimed there was too many
licenses in Emporium. If so why was
not the license taken away from some
OF the younger hotel men instead of
the Oldest man in town, No matter
what church came to me for help I
always helped them.
ask the citizens of Cameron coun-
ty whether this was fair deal.

Game Warden Kalbfus is Much
ENCOURAGED

II am just getting in reports of the
deer killing in this state during the
open season which closed last month,
said State Game Warden Kalb-
fus, "and 1 find that the killing was the
largest for years There were also
more bears killed this year than for
many years. Some of the deer hunters
paid no attention to the game laws and
Will get into trouble. Game of all
kinds has been plentiful, with the ex-
ception of quail and wookcock.
We want Legislation that will close
the season for shooting these birds for
several years. Why the pot hunters
even cleaned out the imported birds
that we brought here from Alabama
to propagate In the lower end of
Dauphin county two men paid so a
dozen for Alabama birds intending
TO stock their farms, and when they
liberated them they banded their legs
that IS placed asmall aluminium band
about the leg with the date of liberia
ton on it. They did this to see if they
would remain on the farm. They stay
ed on the farm all right, but gang of
pot hunters got in among them and
slaughtered every one. If there is a
law to forbid quail shooting for several
years the birds could have a chance to
live. We are getting much encourage
ment now for the passage of law
compelling every hunter to take state
license Ifsuch pot hunters will be
caught up without license, then they
Gao be punished"

Deserves Support.

During the present year it is to be
hoped that the Humane Society of En-
porium, as we'll as the county, will re-
ceive the cordial substantial support
that it deserves, and that the justices
before whom are brought violators of
the laws framed to protect poor beasts
against mans cruelty will punish them
with something more severe than re-
primand. Ordinances are being en-
acted in many boroughs imposing
severe penalties on violators.

In Memory of Hazel Wrightnes,
Who Was Killed by Lightning at
Mason Hill, July 9th, 1905.

"Our Hazel" was taken SO quickly.
BY the Lightning's terrible stroke,
Cut down in her innocent girIhood,
While the Thunder, dread echoes awoke..
No time did SHE have to embrace MS,
Or bid us loving good bye
The lightnings dread power came upon hey
From the terribles in the sky.
But Gods will be done. is our motto,
He speaks in mysterious ways;
And we know she is with Him in heaven
In that bright land of perfect day.
She is waiting with sweet smile to greet us
As she did in the days of yore,
aud with Angels; watches above us,
With the same gentle love as before

HARRY ORCHARD ON THE RACK
Darrow Subjects Him to Most Rigid
Cross-Examination.

Boise, Idaho, Dec. 15.-Clarense S
Darrow, the Chicago attorney, who is
conducting the defense of George A.
Pettibone, had Harry Orchard, the
states witness, on the rack for two
hours and half yesterday, endeavor-
ing to discredit his testimony. The
cross-examination was rigid and ef-
fective in that in it Orchard was pic
tured as an inhuman monster, MUIR
derer, bigamist, perjurer, gambler,
thief and incendiary. Profting by the
failure of Attorney Richardson, in the
Haywood trial, to shake the testimony
of Orchard, Darrow made little attempt
to make the witness contradict him.
self
Twice only during the day did he
try to confuse Orchard in regard to
his testimony, and each time ne fail
ed. Reading from the testimony of
the Haywood trial, Darrow endeavored
to make it appear that the witness had
changed his statements, but Orchard
forced his questioner to read more of
his testimony, given before, showing
that his testimony had been the same
at both times. DarroM laid particular
emphasis on the fact that Orchard
was criminal before he became ac.
quainted with Meyer, Haywood and
Pettibone.
