Teacher Wins Fight

Miss Elsie b. Nicholson, the spirited
young supervisor of SW edesboro school,
who was deposed more than a yearago,
has finally won her suit. She handed
her resignation to a friendly Board of
Education, and after election an un-
friendly Board accepted it and elected
a successor. The Commissioner of Ed
ucation spurned her case but the
Supreme Court decided that she was
entitled to hold her position under the
tenure of office law. An appeal was
taken to the Court of Errors and APP
peals who have not rendered a decision,
but the School Boards attorneys, Sena-
tor j.. Warren Davis and Frank S.
Katzenbach, j., have advised that
she he paid last years salary and the
first month this year.
The teachers tenure of office law is
II OF the most uE-republican, un-
democratic and un-American law ever

The PENIS Grove Record
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 10 1912.

The shooting OF candidate Theodore
Roosevelt at Milwaukee last Monday
by John Schrank, of New York, was a
deplorable calamity ,.evep tho not at all
serious. The bitter political feud in
the Republican party raised in the last
eight months by MI. Roosevelt has no
equal in the history of the country.
The nearest to it was that between the
Stalwarts and Half-breeds during Pres.
ident G, fields administration, when
Senator Roscoe Conkling, of New York,
resigned because of being deprived of
the spoils of office. 1t is hoped that
MI. Roosevelt will suffer no serious i'll
from the bullet, yet the venemous at
tacks he has made on, President Taft
and his supporters is enough to make
bitter enemies and bring serious results
from a maniac with a diseased brain.

There is more Catarrh in this section of
the country than all other diseases put
together, and until the last few years
was supposed to be incurable. For a great
manyNyears doctors pronounced it a local
disease and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it ~incurable. Sci
ence has proven Catarrh to be a consti-
tutional disease, and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. ]. Cheney e.
Co., Toledo, Ohio, is the only Constitu-
tional cure on the market. 1t is taken in
ternally in doses from 10 drops to a tea
spoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and tes-

Standard Bell Equipment

All the Bell instruments, all the Bell lines and all the Bell
equipment are tested, tried and standardzed-the same here, in
Philadelphia, San Francisco and Everywhere. This assures the
best transmission and keeps the service always up to the highest
standard.
The Bell standard telephone equipment is the best known to-
day and it IS used the world over by people who demand quality.
Of the $3.50 900 that will be spent by the Bell System for
new construction and equipment during the present year, over
$~2,SOO,OOO will go for engagements and improvements of the Bell
plant in our w and adjacent cties,-alI within a radius of eighty
miles of Philadelphia.
We can point with pride to our fine telephone plant in this
vicinity and in all the surrounding sections of the country-each
locality with standardized equipment sufficient to handle any emer-
gency and to take care of prospective growth within the next few
years, and additions and improvements are constantly being made
to maintain the high Bell standard. That we are aiming still higher
is evidenced by the unusual further investment made during 1912.
Here is evidence that the Bell Systems policy is one of con-
tinuous Improvement and expansion.
Does it not follow that the Bell must give standard service?

CLEARED BY JURY
VERDICT REACHED AFTER MANY
HOURS DELIBERATION.

Verdict, But Will Make No State
ment as to Future Measures
Verdict After Three Ballots.

Chicago, H., March 26-The Chi
cago packers ended a ten years
legal battle with the government to-
day when the jury in the United
States District Court. presided over
by Judge Carpenter. returned a
verdict which declared them not
guilty of violating the criminal sec
tion of the Sherman antitrust law.
Whether any further investiga-
ton of the beef packing industry
will be made, District Attorney Will
kerson refused to say. He was over
whelmed by the verdict. He had
been confident of a conviction after
the jury had been out nineteen
hours.
Three ballots were taken. On the
first the jury stosd eight to four for
.acquittal on the second eleven to
One; the verdict came on the third.
The ground for the verdict. as
stated by one of the jurors, was the
failure of the government to prove
its case beyond a reasonable doubt.
They did not review the exhibits
in the case. The mass of figures sub
mitted only served to mystify them.
It was agreed that to attempt to
untangle them would have been use
less.
