President Taft made thirty thousand
dollars last year This amount was
his net gain after paying his hired man
the maid and one or two detectives.
or course in order to make such a
thrifty showing he had to practice the
most rigid economy and the household
dined principally on baked potatoes
and corn bread. Like the prudent
man he is investing this little sum in
stocks as he verify testified to the
assessor back in his home town III
Ohio.
And yet we hear the cry every now
and then that the presidents salary is
too small, that he cannot pay the eX
penses of the White House and come

much could he save il he were mayor

Youth Had Much to Learn.

An English gentleman once fell from
his horse and injured his thumb, The
pain increasing, he was Obliged to
send for surgeon. One day the doe
tor was unable to visit the patient,
and therefore sent his son instead.
'iave you visited the Englishman?

replied the young man, "and ! have

two weeks ago in which we gave our
impression of his sermon on Christian
Science. We have no desire to engage
In sectarian controversy, neither do
we wish to champion the philosophy
of any creed or doctrine. There is
good in all of them and they are all
trying to uplift humanity and to
make the old world of ours happier
more peaceful place in which to live.
It must always be cause Of regret
when one sect turns on another and
denounces it instead Of fighting the
common enemy. The Pilgrim fathers
left their home land and settled in a
new country just In order that they
might worship God according to the
dictates of their own conscience and
then made life miserable for the quiet
unpretentious Quakers who settled In
their midst.
We are pleased to know that the
orthodox church is doing so much for
the poor. This was not brought out
in the sermon. As to the word
"orthodox" judging by past history 1t
is used to mean anything. In reality
Orthodoxy is my doxy aud hetrodOxy
is your doxy."
It may be true that mo orthodox
church today in any denomination
would think of putting such doctrine
eternal fire puuishment in it's creed
but We wonder If that doctrine has
ever been removed from the creeds OF
the churches already established.

From n Former TiOnesta Boy.

The following letter is from former
resident of whom we have a kindly re-
membrance as devil" in this office in
the days of the old hand press:
CHICAGO HEIGHTS, Ill, Jan. IA, 1912.
EDITOR REPU9LIcAN:-Judge Irwin's
poem contains lot of truth and some
poetry. but would like to point out a
mistake the boys of 1861 made. Not that
have any personal grudge against our
old friend Samuel, although ] will own
up to thro wing stones against the side OF
his bungalow In my foolish boyhood
days just to see the old warrior "come
forth in all his glory" The "boys" OF
81 set the black man free only to plunge
him into competition with his white
brother. In 1860 the master hunted the
slave. In 1912 the slave hunts master,
If he can find one. Nowadays mans
heart is not In the right place II he does not
think of his neighbor's bread and butter,
as we'll as bis own. OF comes my "lid"
to the "boys" II they have paved the way
to make all slaves free. Real christianity
will never come as long as masters and
slaves exist. Chadman's article makes
me exclaim: "Go south young man! Go
south!' You can count yourself luck y
that 1t is only once in quarter of CEN
tury that you hear from 1.-THE Devil"
Sincerely yours,
CHAs. MUENzENBERGER

The TlOnesta Dam.

just before the Austin disaster which
wiped out that village. and caused the
loss of nearly 100 lives. the citizens of this
section, and especially those OF Tionesta,
were fighting against the proposed grasp
ing of the valley of Tionesta creek and
the erection of dams by Pittsburg COM
pany for water purposes. The affair at
Austin was such a horrible example OF
what might be expected to occur in the
Allegheny valley II the schemes Of the
water company were carried out, and II
was such shock to the people of the
whole State that 1t was supposed to have
settled the Tionesta project. Nothing has
been heard of 1t for several months, and
1t WAS generally believed to have been
abandoned. But II now appears again In
the form of an advertisement published
In the local papers. giving notice that AN
application will be made to the Governor
OF Pennsylvania and the Water Supply
Commission of Pennsylvania, on Feb
rnary l, for charter OF an intended cor
poration to be called Tionesta Water
Power Company. The persons named
as applicants are j. @. Trees, w, B.
Beecher, NJ. L. Benedum, j. X. Rose and
f. B. Psrriott, and the object is to store,
transport and furnish water for manufac-
turing purposes. These are the same
people who were concerned in the pro-
ject which was ventilated last fall, and
the object is the same. The proposition
is to build dam 300 feet high near the
mouth of Tionesta creek, and transform
that fertile valley into huge lake, and
destroy all its industries. The value Of
the property which would be wiped out
is so enormous, as compared with the
proposed income from the scheme, that
il would seem there Is sone object behind
II that has not been revealed. But what
ever the proposition, the size OF the dam
necessary to make IL a success would be a
constant menace TO the dwellers In the
Allegheny valley for many miles below
the mouth of Tionesta creek. Tionesta
would be in constant danger of being
destroyed; Rockmere would be In the
path of such flood as would follow q
break, and the business portion of Oil
City and large residential part of
Franklin would in all probability be
wiped out. The scheme is dangerous
one, viewed from the point of controlling
and changing the flow of the waters from
their natural courses, or from the menace
of such body of water hanging over the
homes of our citizens.
The time for action is short, as the ap-
pllcation is TO be made on February /,
and our people should at once bestir
themselves in making protest to Cover
nor Tener as we'll as the Water Supply
Commission. The people of Tionesta are
preparing and sending in their protests
now, and these should be supplemented
by those from Oil City, for the danger in
the scheme to our town is as great "a that
to Tionesta. Let there be quick and
prompt action by our citizens. Oil City

witnesses were examined. Judge Bre-

James Wigton never recovered from

fatal day. Some years after he sold his
farm and remarked. He raised a family
of five boys and girl TO his second wife.
In 1862, during the oil excitement, he re-
moved TO Oil City and later to Cranberry
township. His height was about six feet
four inches and weight 100 pounds, He
was well informed but after the murder
of his first family he seemed estranged
in his mind. He and his wife in their
last few years resided in the village of
Sslins, six miles south of oil City, where
they both ended their old days.
Amos L. Cooper, an old time lumber
man, while visiting friends here last win

he walked twelve miles to see Mohawk

The several churches refused to allow
Mohawk's corpse to be buried in their

Why Fresh Air!

II you think all the fuss about fresh air
is exaggerated try this simple expert
ment. Light match. Put IL in bottle
and then stop the bottle with cork. In
few seconds the flame will go out.
Why? Because it has used up all the
oxygen in the bottle.
Your life might be compared to fire.
Your body produces heat just as a fire
does and for the same reason 1t needs
oxygen. Oxygen is taken from the air
by the lungs aud is distributed through
the body by the blood Every day the
lungs of normal person handle l05
barrels of air. If this air is pure the flame
of lite will burn brightly. If it is not.
you Will become sluggish and poor in
health.
Then don't cork up your home like a
bottle. Be sure that you are feeding
yourself plenty of oxygen. Night and
day you should have fresh air.-Karl de
Schweinitz, Executive Secretary, Penn
sylvania Society for the prevention of
Tuberculosis.
