NeighbOrhOOd Notes.

The December term of Cambria county
court will be featured by the trial of FIVE
men charged with murder. Three of
these trials promise to be sensational and
will be hard fought.
John +. Dubois is constructing high
way for automobiles from Dubois to a
point near Brockwayville. Although the
highway will be through private land, 1t
will be open to owners of zz-wagons.
Deputy Attorney General Cunningham
has given an opinion that fines recovered
of births, deaths or contagious diseases in
townships where there is no treasurer,
must be paid to supervisors.
William Montgomery, former cashier
of the Allegheny National Bank, con-
yicted of looting the institution of more
than million dollars, was denied new
trial on Saturday and sentenced to serve
fifteen years in the penitentiary.
Secretary of Agriculture Critchfeld has
ordered 20 prosecutions of firms engaged
in handling fertilizers because of failure
to comply with state laws. This action is
the result of the recent analysis of fertili-
zers and the act suits will be based chief
ly upon failure to brand goods properly.
AtOil City on Monday OF last week II.
l.. Dale, the liveryman, and employees of
the Pennsylvania railroad, had a pitched
battle over property line. The railroad
men used the derrick boom of the work
train as battering ram, and battered
down the concrete piers under building
which Dale had erected. Dale's forces
used rocks and hose streams, but were
beaten out. Dale and his men had been
keeping guard of the building day and
| night since Saturday. The battle was ex-
citing to the spectators and created a SEN
sstion. 1t is likely that the dispute will
be taken to court.
The skeleton of a man was found In the
woods near Brandy Camp, Elk county, on
Tuesday of last week. The flesh had en-
tirely decomposed, leaving nothing but
the bleached bones, and the clothing was
rotted beyond Identification, making 1t
evident that the body had lain there for
two or three years. A watch, a revolver
and bunch Of keys were found with the
body and from these the remains we're
identified as those of Bart Brandt, a sin
gle young man who lived with his par
ents at Cuneo Station and mysterionsly
disappeared on Sept. 80, 1905. A charge
of shot was found lodged In the skull and
the coroner's jury rendered a verdict of
death from gunshot wound by n party
unknown"
The reasons filed by the board of par.
dons for the Communication of the death
sentence Of James Strail, of Venango
county. are practically that Strait was
emotionally insane. To quote from them:
"The temple of his home was defied."
His wife would mot regard bis appeals
and spurned him." "In the stress Of his
excitement and mental agony he drew n
revolver and shot her." He had Tex
treme provocation," and "agony of
mind" He suffered from "nervous
strain inspired by his wife's infdelity."
There was on her part "s violation of
every principle of Christian and family
relations" To him 1t was domestic
treason" There was "flaunting in the
husbands face" OF the horrible conduct"
of "wife and paramonr." Therefore
Strail sought not TO die on the gallows."

Reform, Says DR.. Schurman.

SALT LAKE. Utah, December PIN
an address before the Utah State Teach
ers' Association in the Tabernacle last
night, DR.. Jacob G. Schurman. president
of Cornell University said in part:
IF asked to name to whom the great
reform in elections is due. I would un-
hesitatingly name william ]. Bryan. More
than any other man to arouse the spirit
which demands the principles Of genera!
honesty to public affairs has been Theo-
dore Roosevelt.
History will show that the great re-
form of the age began with the work of
Charles e. Hughes in the now famous In.
surance investigations in New York. and
to him Is due the original awakening.
THE Sherman antitrust law must be
repealed because 1t strikes at combina-
ton, which is the foundation of twen-
tieth century business

"HALF-BAKED THEORIES"
Editorial Reply to Comments on La
Dor in Annual Message.
"vIL1FIER' OF HIS OPPONENTS
Singing Criticism of Presidents
Characteristic Methods-"Amuses
Himself and Diverts the
Public"

Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor. in a vitri-
Ollie editorial in the American Fedora
ZIONIST for February, advance sheets OF
which were given out this afternoon. han
dies without gloves President Roosevelts
comments on labor in his recent message
Mr.. Gompers says President Roosevelt
'disported himself as was anticipated
There was a mixture of suggestion of re-
form with criticism, denunciation, abuse
and misrepresentation of all who differ
in any degree from him.
1t is. perhaps. impossible to find in all
our country another public man so in
tolerant. bitter and relentless toward any
man who happens to be unable to agree
with him.
When labor dissents from views ex-
pressed by the President" Mr.. Gompers
says. lit surely should not be counted
to the discredit of our movement. our
cause, or our men, that he may have
Jagged i'll his mental development
Gompers Fits the Cap.
Mr.. Gompers refers to what the press
characterizes as IAN attack on labor
leaders" in the message. and says:
TT does not call for much discern
ment to infer to whom the President
any President of the United States in
an official communication to Congress
ever before descended to such misrepre-
sensation and utilization of Individual
citizens as MIR. Roosevelt has in his last
message"
After stating that the President mis-
represented the attitude of certain"
leaders of organized labor in sweeping
denunciation. Mr.. Gompers adds that in
his message, Mr.. Roosevelt has made
sweeping and abusive attacks upon the
judiciary.
times attacked the principle under which
unjust decisions have been issued and
never the judges who made these de-
cisions." Mr.. Gompers declares.
I'VE repeat that we have never at
tackled individuals We have always, in
pointing out where We believed them to
be in error. stated that the existence Of
the error showed the necessity for re-
medal legislation. Can Mr. Roosevelt
show that we have ever insinuated, as he
has, that the escape of wealthy crimi-
nails indicates something wrong with the
judges who allow them to escape"
Presidents Logic Criticised.
Mr.. Gompers says President Roosevelt
amuses himself and diverts the public by
turning out great many half baked
economic theories: talks loudly and airs
his personal grievances alike against GER
tain labor leaders, legislators. judges and
capitalists: anybody who has dared to dis
agree commits less m ,jeste. and is to be
pillorized in the presidential message.
I'VE regret that the President of the
United States should SO far forget the
dignity Of his posi- ion as to let his pri-
vate personal feelings overcome his better
judgment to color public document. We
may point out that the workers are not
the ONLY ones attacked Courts and Con-
gress suffer about equal insult,
In CONCLUSION Mr.. Gompers says:
president Roosevelt has yet to learn
to read Alright the lessons of history

LOCAL FINANCIAL NEWS.

The volume of transactions at today
meeting of the stock exchange was not
of as much consequence as the changes
made in the figures in some portions OF
the list, which was done without bringing
about any trading. The session was
rather quiet, in harmony with the gray
dizziness of the snow-laden atmosphere on
the outside. Cleans of red, however, shot
through the room at Intervals in 1ashlns
curves, suggesting the graceful forms as
well as the color of Christmas decora-
tons.
This suggestion OF the holiday time.
however, ceased as soon as Mr.. Hume had
finished the distribution about the room

supplied himself With, so as TO give one 10

corded yesterday, to 12s. while the bid
