CONGRESSMAN N. p. WHEELER of For
est county, who represents the twenty
eighth district at Washington, will be a
candidate for reelection at the April pri-
msries. It's customary to give the con-
gresham from this district second term,
which Mr.. Wheeler certainly deserves on
account of the undivided attention With
which he has looked after its interests at
the national capital. He has established
record at the pension department and
many are the old soldiers for whom he
has secured welcome pension or an in
crease in that already paid by the gov
ernment. 1t is believed that Mr.. Sibley's
declinstion to run, leaves the field open
for Mr.. Wheeler's denomination without
serious opposition and in that event his
reelection will follow as a matter OF
course in that strongly Republican dis
triut.-Titusville Herald.

ONE Of the popular obsessions that is
hard to remove is the theory that men,
bers ofcouncils, boards of education and
other similar bodies should serve without
salary. The work of conscientious men
in positions like these makes serious in
roads upon their time and strength, and
yet they are expected to give this to their
community without compensation. A
bill has been introduced into the Ohio
Legislature allowing members of boards
of education salaries, and it has hopeful
prospects of passing. Councilmen should
not have to wait their turn in this direc-
tion long. And the departures should
find early favor in other states. The
laoorer here is certainly worthy of his
hire.-Pittsburg Post.

Fire Extinsuished With snowbaIls.

The most remarkable manner of ex-
tinguishing fire occurred at Boswell,
a Pennsylvania mining town, when
hundreds of men, women, boys and girls
saved the town from destruction by
throwing snowballs. The town has
no fire department and water is
scarce. The flames had gained much
headway and a building in which was
stored sufficient powder to blow up
the village was threatened. As last
resource practically the entire popu-
lation began throwing snowballs by
thousands, made from soft wet snow,
and after time prevented the ex.
plosion and confined the flames to a
half dozen buildings.

Mr.. Sibley Not a Candidate.

Following the publication last week of
a dispatch from Washington, d. c., to the
effect that the candidacy of Hon. J. C.
Sibley for Congress had been announced
by Senator Boise Penrose, The News re-
quested Mr.. Sibley by telegraph to either
deny or confirm the report. No word
was received from him until this morn
ing, when the editor got letter in which
Mr.. Sibley says he has not indicated to
any one desire to return TO public life
and that he intends to carry out his plans
to go to Egypt within the next few weeks.
By many this will be construed to mean
that Mr.. Sibley will not be candidate
for Congress at present, since it would be
quite impracticsble for him to seek the
nomination when thousands OF miles from
home. His letter is as follows:
"Your telegram ] find upon my return
from New York, l have not seen the
article to which you refer, and so can
neither affirm or deny. Up to this time l
have never indicated TO anyone desire 10
re-enter public life. am about starting

scenes in Palestine and Egypt which
from boyhood have allured me. had
long since contemplated taking this trip
and long held it should he the first l

ington forbade my carry ing out this de-
sire, as my services were at the command
OF others. Now am free TO go, and TO
this moment have no regret that Others
bear the responsibility of faithful and eff
cient Congressional service. lin
