MR.. McHENRY'S CARD
Congressman Elect Thanks
the Voters for Generous
Support,
Will Appreciate Suggestions.

Hon. John G. McHenry, Con
gressman-elect, has issued the fol.
lowing address to the people of the
district:
To the voters of the Sixteenth
Congressional District of Pennsyl-
vania.
The official election returns hav.
ing Just reached me, I desire to ex.
press my gratitude to the citizens
of the Sixteenth Congressional Dis
trict for their general support at
the polls on the third of November.
believe that it is only fair to
look upon this large majority as an
expression of confidence upon the
part of the people.
This I deeply appreciate and
shall earnestly strive to merit.
My sole desire is to serve the
people, to carry out their wishes
and secure for our district intelli-
gent representation and the recog-
nition which is due our district in
the National legislative body.
To this end l respectfully ask all
good citizens, regardless OF party,
that they take an active interest in
National affairs and feel free at all
times to let me know their views on
the many matters of National inn
portance which will be brought be.
fore Congress and IN which they
may feel personal interest.
l accept the position as a sacred
trust and shall endeavor to render
a satisfactory account of my stew
ardship in so far as my ability per-
mits. In the performance of my
duty, l shall always try to reflect
the thoughts and wishes of the peo-
pie of my district as it may be Civ
en- me to understand what their
wishes are.
Faithfully yours,

A COMPLIMENTARY VOTE.

At the election last week Fred b.
Hartman of this town received SI3
votes for the Office of county audi
tor on the Prohibition ticket. The
next highest vote received by any
candidate on that ticket was AIS,
and the lowest was 2I3, so that Mr..
Hartman's vote was nearly double
that of any other candidate on his
ticket, and nearly four times as
large as the lowest.
Mr.. Hartman made no canvass
for the Office; made no announce
ment in any newspaper, and did
not write a single letter, so that the
large vote he received shows that
he has many friends who voted for
him regardless of politics. 1t was a
high compliment, and a we'll de-
served one. He has been elected to
local offices on several occasions on
the Prohibition ticket, and has
shown always that the confidence
thus reposed in him was not mis-
placed.

HAVE PASSED FOUR SCORE.

There are number of men in
Bloomsbury who have passed the
age of eighty years. Among them
are Col. John G. Freeze, I.W. Hart.
man, DR.. H. c. Hover, DR.. P. H..
Freeze, William Rabb, Matthias
Appleman, Samuel Thomas, Silas
d. Edgar. and David Brobst.
Most of these gentlemen are ac-
tive and hearty and may be seen
daily walking along the streets as
briskly as much younger men.
There are no doubt others who
belong to this class, and we shall
be glad to add their names to the
list of aged and honored citizens,
MANY of whom have been impor'
tant factors in making Bloomsbury
what it is today.
Forty FIVE years ago this town
was only a township of about three
thousand inhabitants. Main street
had a sidewalk only on one side OF
the street. The north side had
them in spots. There was not an
other street in the town that had a
continuous sidewalk on either side
of it, and what there were OF them
were of all sorts and grades, to
suit the individual taste OF the
property owners.
Now, Bloomsbury is noted as
one of the prettiest towns in the
state, and has population of Io,-
600. Great progress has been made
since the incorporation of the town
in 1870, and most of the venerable
men named in this article have seen
this development, and several of
them, notably Col. Freeze and Mr..
Hartman, have been active partici-
pants in much that has been done
for the growth aud welfare of the
community.

CONGRESS REJECTED 1T.

MIR. McHenry presented bill pro-
viding for the laying of tax of
one cent ton on all coal mined,
the proceeds from this taxation to
be used in caring for injured miners
and their families as we'll as for the
families of miners who were killed
in the mines. He worked uncea'
ingly to have the bill passed; but
the majority leaders succeeded in
having it killed.
Congressman McHenry imme-
diately completed arrangements to
have similar bill presented to the
Pennsylvania Legislature, in. order
that this State at least might act
upon it, and that the mine workers
in this State might profit by such a
tax.

He got into communication with
representatives of the mine workers
and mine owners, and asked them
il they would attend conference
where the provisions of the bill
could be gone over and the bill
made satisfactory to both sides, in
order that there should be no dis
pute when it was presented to the
Legislature.
As a result Of his efforts confer
ence is to held, the entire matter
fully discussed and a bill drawn. A
number of well-known legislators
will also be present to assist in
framing the bill, so there will be
no question as to its constitutional
ity.
