No Time To Swap Horses.

AS sure as you are living, if Forest
county sends a new man to the legislature
this fall, one who is not thoroughly posted
on the way they have of doing things in
Harrisburg, the iniquitous and hideous
water snake, against which our county
made such brave fight two years ago,
will pass the legislature, and our county
he turned over to the tender mercies of
the water grabbers, and the hideous dams,
the mere thoughts of which have given
us nightmares and put us all on the verge
of nervous prostration, will become a
reality and Forest county will be prscti-
cally wiped off the map. This is not a
theory but condition that stsres the resi-
dents of the TioDesta creek aud the Alle-
gheny river vallies in the teeth. Do you
want to jeopardize your life, your family,
your home by such condition? Then
don't trust your business in the legisla-
ture to green hand at this critical stage,
Had it not been for the excellent and in
telligent watchfulness of Mr.. Mechling
and three or four other wide awake and
experienced members of the Legislature
at the last session these bills would have
slipped through, and our county and 8
few others in this END of the State would
today be in the grip of the water power
grabbers. No green hand could have
watched and averted this calamity. Wei
do we remember the excellent work, also
of fex-Judge Kretler, tho late II. D. Col
lins, N. P. Wheeler, Attorney A. G
Brown, representing the County Com
missioners, and others. in killing off this
obnoxious legislation, and the numerous
trips they made to Harrisburg to fgh
these snakes.
Consider these facts thoroughly
thoughtfully. Lay aside any prejudic,
you may have formed. Forget your like
or dislikes aud make up your mind Il
vote for and work for your own interests
This is no time TO swap horses.

The Late Sebastian Cook.

Sebastian Cook, son of John and Kath-
eryn Ritter Cook, was born at Cooks
burg, Barnett Township, July 4, 1887.
He was member of family of eighteen,
three of which survive him, who are
Jerry and Squire Cook and Mrs. Martha
Snyder of this place. Those who have
gone before are Dan, John, Mrs. Piper,
Mrs. Young, Phillip, Andrew, Mrs. Ber-
lin, Mrs. Phipps, Mrs. Lindsey, Mrs.
Slocum, Mrs. Henry and Elijah.
Mr.. Cook spent nearly all his life in
this place and to him do we owe the debt
of helping to clear the land and building
permanent homes in Cooksburg. In the
year of 1861, when Lincoln called for vol
unteers, Mr.. Cook was one of the first to
respond, enlisting on the first day OF
July, 1861. He enlisted in the Tenth
Regiment of the Pennsylvania Reserves,
Company E, and was under Capt. Phipps,
and later, Capt. Knox. He fought in
some great battles, among which were
the battle OF the Wilderness, and battle of
Bull Run. He fought in the Seven Days
Battle until the ii fth day, when he was
wounded in the ankle by bullet shot by
a rebel soldier. After suffering for al
most a week from this wound he was
taken to Baltimore to the hospital, where
he remained for six months, when he in.
sisted on going back into the battle field
Physicians, understanding his physical
condition, refused his request and he was
granted an honorable discharge January
|, 1868. Yet no man ever loved his coun-
try better; he never boasted of his ser.
vice but many an old soldier will today
tell of his great bravery.
In 1865 he was married to Miss Sara
Morgan, who still survives him and has
indeed proved herself faithful compan
ion. To this union nine children were
born, all of which survive him, except
one, Mrs. Betty Slocum, who preceded
him to the other world five years ago.
The children are Andrew, William, Au
gustus, Ooburn, Mrs. Robert Cook, OF
this place, Mrs. Ida Boyd of Clarion,
Mrs. William Smalhers of Kane, and
, Mrs. Edward Merchant of Mayburg. He
, was also survived by thirty-nine grand
! children and nine grest-grsndchildren.
Mr.. Cook was taken i'll on Wednesday,
: Sept. 0, 1914, and though everything that
, human hand could do, the "Angel OF
Death" could not be barred and lie was
called to his eternal home on Monday
morning. While sick he was attended
by DR.. Rimer and Miss Nayon. He was
= good citizen, a kind neighbor, faithful
; worker, and will be greatly missed.
5 From the beginning of his illness friends
t hoped for his recovery, but when they
saw it in vain his son-in-law asked "ii
he was ready to die" He said, 81 am."
3 He had smile and kind word for
3 everyone, and was known to everyone in
D the community as "Uncle Boss" We
. grieve at the thought that he is gone,
never to return, but he has erected a

monument in the memory Of all that
will never perish.
On Thursday as we entered that home
to lay the dear one 10 rest, feeling OF
sadness came over us, when we saw the
Stars and Stripes hanging at half mast,
Then, as we saw the casket also wrapped
in our country's flag, our minds went
back to those days from 81 till '65, and
we could not help but realize the great
sacrifice made by our veterans. The
floral offerings were abundant, being
among the most teautifu fiowera.
Rev. II. Smallenberger OF Kellettville
preached the funeral sermon. Although
a complete stranger to the deceased, Mr..
Smallenb berger said he could fully real
ize his popularity in the community by
the large concourse of friends who had
come to show him last earthly respect.
Mr.. Cooks fsvorite hymns were sung by
Mr.. and Mrs. Clough of Clarion. After
the services he was laid to rest, number
of his old comrades following him to the
grave and giving him military donors.
Then as we returned to our homes In our
little valley town and saw the sun sink
silently to rest beneath the hills, to rise
again in its glory at the beginning oi
another day, we thought of the one whom
we had laid to rest to rise in the glory OF
eternity.

The determination of the sdministra-
tion at Washington to impose burden
some war taxes in times of peace, as a
ruse solely to cover the failure of the
Democratic tariff legislation, has brought
the voters of Pennsylvania to full sense
of their duty at this particular time and
the Republicans have abundant reasons
for their belief that the people will not
only rebuke the administration, but will
vote with all possible emphasis against
Mr.. Palmer who has had much to do
with framing the disastrous Democratic
policies at Washington. Under all the
conditions an old time Republican ma.
jority in Pennsylvania seems assured
aud the Republicans are now in the thick

Army Officers Pick
Allies as Winners

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2o.-An
! army officer who has made a study OF
the European war, who had familiar
lied himself with the armies of the
powers engaged in the conflict as
far as was possible before the war,
and who has followed the events OF
the struggle since it began, told a
reporter for the New York World
yesterday he had talked over the sit
uation with twenty-six other officers
and hat all but two were of the
opinion the war would last from thir-
teen to eighteen months and the Al
lies would then come out victorious.
The majority Of them expressed
the belief the war would terminate
next fall. The two who thought
otherwise predicted the German mil
ltary machine would win, but ven
tured no time for its ultimate tr,-
unlph.
My opinion. at the outset of the
war;" said this officer, was that Ger
many would attempt to obtain sew
eral brilliant victories in the first six
weeks and then accept mediation.
While the advance of her army
awed every one, she accomplished no
signal victories. The Allies with les
ser military machines naturally were
slower in getting going, but they
moved with great deliberation that
meant strength with their @natrual re-
sources and the pressure they built
TIP and brought to bear was certain
to check the Germans.
For that reason a deadlock this
winter would not be Then
comes the question Of supplies. Be-
sides food there is the item of am
munltlon. No doubt Germany has a
big supply of ,gunrowder, but with
her borders guarded she cannot re-
new it. If the armies become lock-
ed this winter the Germans, no doubt,
will make a desperate attack in the
spring. If that fails, it will be only |
a question OF a few months before
she will have to give in"
