1 Repattllraa roBTtalUa The Republican soap-convention that had been the exciting topic for politica discussion among Cambria county Republicans for the past month, came off in this place on Monday. It brought together the largest consisting of delegates, liquor men, wire pullers and spectators ever seen in the court house, and at one o'clock the sea's and aisles of the court room were crowded to its utmost capacity. As the the conventon had been called to take place during the time liquor licenses are in suspense, every liquor man that could attend was present, anxious to show that he was woi king. In order to further Impress them with the seriousness of their position, the court cryer and tipstave were borrowed for the occasion, and at one o'clock Court Crier Humphries and Tip-stave Connell with their staves In their hands appeared In the bar. Court Crier Humphreys called thecouvention to order, while Tipstave Connell busied himself marching around through the aisles with his stave as is customary during the sessions of court.

Chairman Taylor then appeared and announced Messrs. Anderson Walters and Ed. Levergood as temporary secretaries and that he was ready to receive nominations for chairman. County Commissioner Oeorge M. Wertz, of Stonycreek township, and John Hor-rocks, of Johnstown, were placed in nomination, and the first ballot landed Mr.

Wertz as chairman by a vote of 1V2 for Wertz to 40 for Horrocks. Mr. Wertz then took charge and after a motion had been made aud carried to elect the temporary secretaries permanent, the convention got down to business. As there were contesting delegation from Loretto and Spangler boroughs, the differences were healed by a motion made and carried, admitting both sets of delegates. Arthur Griflith, of Johnstow tien took the floor and read a resolution calling on the chairman to appoint a committee of five to draft a set of rules and regulations for the government of the Republican party in Cambria county.

District Attorney Murphy took the floor and in a short speech presented the name of Alyin Evans, of Ebensburg. as the choice of Cambria county for congress, aud a motion to allow Mr. Evans to choose his own conferees went through with a rush. Mr. Evans, who was in waiting to respond to r.

Murphy, wasenthusiastically received The same program was followed in the choice of J. C. Stineman for senator, the only difference being in the length of the speeches, Mr. Stineman. it is said, having had a speech prepared, but in the hurry in making the train that morning bad inadvertantly left ii at home.

He, too, was given the power to select his own confer-ess. For assembly V. IV Reese, of Johnstown; Samuel Patterson, of Barr town ship; A. N. Hart, of Johnstown, and Ed ward II ughes.

of Johnstown, were placed nomination. The first ballot disposed of the assemblymen, and resulted as fol lows: Reese, 140; 14.1; Hart, Hughes. 5. For county treasurer the following names were placed before the convention: Jacob Yeckley, of (lallitzin; Isaac Jones, of Johnstown; Josiah T. Evans, of Johns town; J.

W. Hamer, of Johnstow James M. Shumaker, of Johnstown, aud E. F. Spencer, of Hastings.

Dr. T. M. Rich ards, a delegate from the West ward of Ebensburg, before balloting commenced arose and stated that "for the sake of har mony he would withdraw the name of L. A.

Craver, of Ebensburg." As Mr. Cra ver name had not been mentioned, the harmony produced was apparent. After the Mb ballot James M. Shumaker with drew and oi the Ulh ballot Josiah T. Evans withdrew.

On the loth ballot E. F. Spen cer, oi Hastings, was nominated, llie ballots were as follows: fi 21 4 7 8 9 10 -I-I-I-I- 14 l-' ll 111114 'Boy Wmkfrt to Tried. Utica, N. Feb.

Daniel Ressler, the blacksheep. of a prominent family, killed his cousin, a girl of IS, near Cramer, in Indiana county, near the Cambria line, on Thursday of last week and instantly linished the job by shooting himself in the head. Kesler lived for two minutes. The murder and suicide were committed in the presence of the girl's mother. Ressler and the girl belonged to a fam ily that is very well connected.

For sev eral years the man, who was 'M years old. had been drinking, and his habits became such that his family practically cast him off. For the last year he peisecuted his cousin Klla with his attentions, aud de- suite or.e or two refusals still wanted her to marry him. Her mother had forbidden him the house, and he sought frequehtly without avail, to meet the girl clandestine ly. Alxiut two o'clock on Thursday afternoon Klla Kessier and her mother, intending to go to Johnstown, started to walk from their home above Cramer to Conemaugh furnace, here they expected lo catch the train.

As they passed through Cramer Ressler caught sight of them on the street and joined them, Mrs. Ressler not caring to make a scene on the street by ordering him away. After they got out of town the mother walked on ahead. They bad gone about half a mile below Cramer hen Mrs Resslers attention was attracted by hear ing her daughter in an indignant tone of voice say: "It's no use, Dan. I won't marry you." Mrs.

Ressler turned around at that moment, saw the man put a revolver to the girl's head and fire. As her daughter fell, Mrs. Ressler, with a cry of horror. hurriHi back, but before s-he had reached the group Ressler had turned the revolver against himself, tired a bullet into his breast and fell upon the body of his cousin. As airs, uessier came up ne glared up at her, said; ''Well, I fixed your daughter, anyhow," and died.

Several men who were coming uo the road heard the report. They found the two dead bodies, with the mother of the girl standing by, wringing her hands. One of the men ran on to Cramer aud brought wagons, in which the bodies were taken back to the town. fur --rr.

There is no doubt that everyone has had at some time a desire to visit Florida, the "Land of Flowers," and that many have been deterred from so doing by tbe though of a long and tiresome railroad journey great expense and a thousand and one oth er objections. These have been overcome by the inauguration of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company's personally conducted tours to Jacksonville.

A special train of uxexcelled equipment makes the run from New York to Jacksonville in thirty hours; a tourist agent and chaperon accompany each tour to look after the comfort of pas sengers while en route; and the low rates offered bring the tours, within the means of almost every one. The tours, allowing two weeks stay in Florida, will leave New York and Phila delphia on February 25 and March 3. IStW. The rate. Including transportation, meals en route, and Pullman berth on special train, is 50.00 from New York and $43.00 from Philadelphia; proportionate rates from other points.

For further Information apply to ticket agents, or address Tourist Agent, lr.W Broadway, New York, or Room 411, Urnad Street Station. Philadelphia, to whom ap plication for space should also be made. Yeckley Jones Evans Hamer Shumaker Spencer ithdra wn. The candidates slated tor commissioner were landed on the first ballot. When this office was reached W.

J. Jones, of Portage; T. R. Davis, of Conemaugh; A. Hostetler, of Richland; Oliver Evans, of Ebensburg; Philip Hertzog, of Corroll township; Ben jamin Jones, of Cambria township, and John (Sittings, of Jackson township, were placed in nomination.

The first ballot te- sulted as follows: W. .1. Jones. Davis. 4f; Hostetler, Evans.

Hertzog. 34; Benjamin Jones, S7; (Sittings, 7. Hostet ler and Benjamin Jones were declared the nominees. For county auditor, James W. Daily, of Allegheny township, and A.

L. Milten- berger, of Johnstown, were placed In nom ination, when a motion was made that the nominations close. Chairman Wertz started to put the motion when, alas for poor Daily, the proceedings were inter rupled and Mr. Wertz thrown off the trol ley by Delegate Barker, of the East ward of EbensDtirg, long enough to allow John unningham. of Yintondale, to make a motion that the nominations for auditor be opened again.

The motion carried and the names of John (Sittings, of Jackson township, and Philip Hertzog, of Carroll township, were placed in nomination. The ballot resulted as follows: Daily, 04; Mil-tenberger, 121; tiittings, 85; Hertzog, 4. Millonberger and Gittings were declared the nominees. Daily was thus gotten rid of and as hn would have been like a fish out of water on the ticket nominated, there will be no explanations necessary after the election to ponder over as to the why and herefora of his running behind the ticket. as was the case three years ago.

For poor director, James Somerville had no opposition aud was declared the nomi nee. For delegates to the state convention Peter Moran. of Allegheny township; C. Westoyer, of Spangler; Dr. George Glass, of Portage; A.

J. Thompson, of Cresson township; F. N. Burk, of Gal-litzin, and T. F.

Hamilton, of Westtnont, were named. The first ballot made Messrs Westoyer, Thompson aud Hamilton tbe delegates. Campbell Robinson, of Johnstown, John E. Keiper, of East Conemaugh. and Dr.

M. Richards, of Ebensburg. were elected conferees to select delegates to the nation al convention. And thus ended Rajah Barker's conven tion. Although there were mutterings deep and loud against its work everything moved along according to the plans and specifications.

Iu the boosting of Spencer, the choking of Shoemaker and the cuffing of Daily not a cog si i oped and the Rajah Lad his way. From henceforth there will be no question as to who has control of the party. From Editor Swank down, the kickers will have the alternative of suing for peace or sitting outside of the breast-v orks. The election of the ticket nomi nated on Monday will but fasten the Rajah's hold more securely and will give biut that many additional henchman who will owe their positions to him alone and who must lend him their assistance next year iu landing the candidates he may select for positions at the public crib. Barker Order Vrml for Oate.

The Republican ticket nominated yesterday is clean from top to bottom, and the one that will be nominated by the Democrats cannot compare with it. But it is more than eight months yet to the election, and should we commence hollar ing now we vould gel very hoarse before we could vote. It is probably as well to take a rest; we have had a surfeit of poli- I tics recently. Johnstown Tribune.
