leased upon 'the payaituii of cae An lmprcticb! La Croat Complaint Against It. Tbe Impracticable registry law phased by the )st Legislature provided fjf two registrations each year. One of these registra-tione ia begun in May, and completed in September. Tbe other is begun oo tbe first Monday in December and completed the Allowing week. Accordingly, tbe Asessors of Somerset county began the week of taking a new registry of voters for tbe February elec Cod, on Monday.

Next Monday, December 14th. the law requires tbe Assessor to hang one completed cf voters at tbe polls, and to return duplicate list to the County Commissioners' office. Tbe Assessor sits at the polls on the following Wednesday and Thursday, December and 17th, between tbe hours of 10 a. and nu, and 6 p. and 9 p.

to register those wbo are le-caliy er. titled to be registered On tbe day following Friday, December 13'h. the Aa senior makes final return to tbe office of tbe County Coasmrmionerr. Great complaint is justly mate ajaiast tbe prvL-ijiis of the new law. It is a physical iuipcb.Hty for any man lo da tbe work reiuired ia tbe time given in oearlr all of tbe rural districts cf Somerset county.

The law is crude and impracticable, not to fay absurd, and besides a beavy and ueirs expense. The sooner tiie Ugisla-ture reiieeuis itself by repealing this registry act. the tn tier.

The Cood-Natured Warfare Con tinues Around1 th Store Stove Tbe views expressed around the store stove," as published In the Hcsaxo the past two weeks, have excited not a little interest among tbe people of this town, and have given a new impetus to those ia favor of th borough issuing bonds for th purpose of constructing water work as well as those wbo are hostile to tha proposed measure. Polls of tbe vote of th borough are made al most daily by enthusiasts on either side. and to day both sides are claiming a ma jority. '-What's this I hear about the borough school board's indebtedness said the venerable gentleman with tobacco-stained beard. and then paase-1 to adjust his false teeth which be accomplished by a movement of the tocgae.

before proceeding. "I eaa'l get tt through my bead that the 'academy' building is not pa for yet." "Ob, don't worry about such a trine." said the craker-barrel man. "A debt cf $4.0" 0 or is n-xhicg to onr school board- Why, this is ene of the richest town in the State. Tbe prospects are that you wiil have another school tax elephant on your bands before tbe 'academy' is paid for. Some (bits say that tbe school board bave lost tbeir 'score' aid don really know what tbe school indebtedness is.

But that don't make any difference: we've got to bars a new kebool bouse next summer, aad with the extra labor that will be forced upon the board, I shouldn't be surprised if taey would vote tbeir secretary a salary, as I understand i me wanted to do a year ago. Bat, a I said -fore. Somerset borough is ricS aad can afford to pay its bills but not aa it People tell me that tbe 'academy' cost over ThiLk of it! And tbe directors who were elected to build it were elected with a special view to tbe economy they would enforce. I don gainsay that the building is cot a good one, but there most be come defect or they wouldn't hare to ad journ school every cold day. vie tcusn economise on our school buildings, since the Stale Las appropriated for the improvement of our schools but what are our taxes going to amount to?" "Oh, I guess we can bear the expense without much grumbling," said tbe young man with the cracked voice.

"The 'aoademy' only cost one-half as much as the proposed water works are to cost, aad when we get water the surplus revenue derived from that source will relieve as from i other farms of borough taxation. Give as water, and let us bave a taste of the plessere Meyersdale enjoys. "I haven't taken any part in this dispute," said a gray bearded gentleman from tbe west ward, but if there is a man ia town wbo has reason to vote for water it is me. The well at my place has been dry a powder-born fur at least three months. I am of the opinion thai a town meeting should be called at which this question can be discussed by the people whom the introduction of water will directly affect.

I have labored all my life ia order to buy a lillie property, and if a meeting is called I want to make a few remarks It is claimed that this election is to be held merely for the purpose of get! id an expression from tbe voters as to whether they are willing lo bond the borough for the purpose of introducing water, aad will be in no sense an endorsement of the Kimberly run scheme. That's all well enough but it means a d.g-iou sight more than thai. If water carries, il will toean that the people of this borough have empowered tbeir burgess and town council to accept any proposition that they choose aad to Usne bonds to tbe amount of $27 Oud to pay lor it- That's what it means, aiid can't mean anything else. I haven't a complaint to niter against tbe present borough racers and believe that ibey are acting in perfect good faith, but in considering this saHect il must be remembered thai we will elect a new burgna and one member of cbe town council in February, and wbo ia to say what views they will bold on tbe water work qaeitioa No, sir-ee let's know what scheme were voting for when we go to the polls, and don't let's aad-dit ourself with a debt before we know what t's for." "Thst's a view of the case I never heard of before," said the nail-keg man, as be opened the stove-door and drew out a hot poker and applied it to tbe end of bis toby. "As a matter of course, the town council and bursts are committed to the Kimberly run scheme.

Didn't they have the engineer come here and make a survey, and when bis estimate of was considered too high, didn they bave him come back again and go over the ground a second time and obtain au estimate at one-third less cost If water can be brought from Kimberly ran, that's where it will be brougbtt from, and don't yoa forget it. Tbe town authorities, so far as I ran learn, refue to consider any other method." "Oh, that can't be true 1" said wbi er. after he Lad lauded a worn oat chew in the centre of tbe puddle of tooixuspitin front of him. These men certainly haven't con-eluded to go ahead and let contracts frr a water supply from Kimberly ran, in event the question carries. Wby, there ain't one of you feiiows sittin' 'ronrid this stove that doo't know that thai water in't fit to drink Wby.

that water drains through a swamp of black mud lor miles, and is never fit to drnk unless during high water If you don't believe me, ask some of the older men mho bave traveled around Kiniberiy run. AnotUrr ibiag, and I'll state my life oo it ttere aia't water eaooga in that creek to cw'r the town. Yon all know that Dave Ca-vbeer can only ran bis raw mill tor about three months in tbe year, because be can't get enough water. Pshaw talk to someoody else about that creek furnishing water for Somerset. I know a blamed sight better." a Taxes is prvtty buzb in this town now," s-tid bow legs, and I don's know bat that I aid have lo be exonerated next year bat something must be done lo improve Ibe sanitary condition of Somerset There will be some interesting developments in regard to this matter at next term of court, when a ncmber of property owners will bave to answer for maintaining a nuisance.

Something's got to be done lo improve tbe sanitary condition of our town, aid if water will do it, wby. let's have it, no matter how high the taxes go, or bow soon our homes are sold for taxea" Weil. I am surprised at such a speech coming from yoa said tbe cracker -barrel man snspping his jack-knife shut, after having finished picking hi teeth with tbe I.Mig ba.te. Do yoa really suppose tbst tbe inirtidudion of wster will relieve tfce f.ul condition of the gutters, drains and sinks of thi town? Taa-'s too sb-urd to talk aSout Think ti moment, and then tfli roe what is to bee me of tbe water tbat ill he u-ed by the people on the bid You the condition of the gntters in the H-tt and Writ wards now. and what will they Me after water i introduced Sewerage Is wha town wants, aud what it oia have, oat I gi-st the borough 1 bardyl able to lare both sewrrage and water at the same lime, to say Doming of a new school bou-e." "Since I hsve taken tin to otk into this water works question carefully," said spiodie shar.ks I have made op my mind thai if a rm company wants to put in wa ter works firS they sh mid be per-mttfd to di ii i of the solides uet in this town told me last evening tha' knew a party who would pat in water works for us, and woalda't ak a cent from the borough as an inducement.

Wby nbonMn't be be granted tbe franchise of the street Then only th.ne people who want water need Uke it. It would bedeciV4-ly cheaper all around. If it afforded fire pMerrim tbe borough eoald pay for it, if it wanted it. Tais wouid give Somerset wa as cheap a Meyersdale gets it. and that appears to be the point the water talks are for.

Let a stock company fam-Ub tbe waurr. and th borough will bars as much is it can Jo to pot in sewers I'm opposed to company." said tbe boom (own Bin, and think it would be the gva't mistake this town could saake to grant fraoebie to any person or company. If there is one thing abort another that shoo id be choan, ia water, and the taxpayers of Somerset will rear and swear forever more if they place themselves at tbe mercy of stock com pan Oh, ccme ofT." said tbe cracker -barrel man. No one need tak water frora a stork cemj any cults they wanted it, and were willing to pay tor it It would not in' crease their taxes, and they would have no bonded indebtedness. If a stock company expected to make anything tbey wonld hare to make tbeir rates within the reach, c' everybody.

Bat laying all this aside. I think the stock company talk is all a bluff. I don't believe such a thing has ever been thought of, and I don't believe that it would pay per cent on the investment." Bat suppose the botoagh does build tbe works and oar taxes are said tbe squint-eyed man, look at the reduction we would get in our insurance rates. I am told that insurance rates in Meyersdale have been reduced at least 17 per cent." Ho, bo, ho 7 croaked the cracker barrel man. Tbe entire yearly insurance prertn nms in Meyersdale amocnts to about in round numbers.

Tbe redaction in premi nms since tbey nave cad water, is snout $7o0 The great Metropolis" of the county pays $of a year for the tire protection the water works afford, so the actual saving to tbe taxpayers wbo carry insurance is proper-lv the -'ifference between $75) and $ooi), or $250, and the per cent ol reduction is properly in the relation that 2Y stands to 5.. Now can yoa figure 17 per cent out of that And notwithstanding ber water works, in surance rales are higher at Vieyersdale to-day than tbey are in Somersrt. We have a su perior clsas of buildinirs, the reason. We can't ask for a mnch lowrr rate insurance in this town than we have at present. I thick the insurance agents wilt bear me out in the assertion tbat the average rate in this town is one-half per cent, per year, or S5 A on the thousand," "Now.

If yoa all keep quiet for a minute," said the sawed -off man, "I'd like to give you th water rates as assessed la town where tbe municipality owns tbe water works." Agreed," answered all bands, as soon as they had emptied their mouths of tobacco pit. The sawed off man drew a small pamphlet from bis pocket and began to read Dwelling houses (5 rooms or less Baroer saop slcuair) 6.u Bath tub Blacksmith shop (1 tire)- 5 Oo Ba'cber shop. iu.oo Drickioc saloon 3o oo Ealing saloon 30 Fountain flowing hours per day during season lo io Filling private cisterns, each ti me 1 Oo Hotels and boarding bouses, first leu rooms 2f" Each addinoiial room 1 1 Street 8pnnkhng. 25 feet I-m. inctad ing washing store fronts 500 spnckling lawn Livery stables, each stall Private stable, 1 borse Each additional borse 3.oo i oo to 2uoo 6.UU Photograph galleries rnnune cfaoea Steam engines, per horse-power Stores.

Meyersdale don't pay no such rates as those," spoke op oar nail-keg friend. Well. I shoald guess not." said tbe cracker barrel man. Only a few families over there have more than one spigot, and no matter bow much water they o-Csume tbe cost is tbe same for the first spigot and I GO for each additional one. While I've got tbe floor I want to say this aad I know what lam talking about, too.

Meyersdale water stock has never drawn a dividend exceeding 6 per cent. The company bave wisely created a reserve fund with which to meet accidents and extend and improve their plant. If tbe borough owned the works tbey would bave lo levy an additional tax to meet every thing of this kind. But what's the use talking' It seems that all these water people would rather have the tax collector come around once a year and say your water tax is so-and-o. and your additional uz for water repairs is so-snd so-much more, to knowing for a dead certainty that tbeir water will cot them so much a year, and if they don't want it they don't need to pay for it.

"Now lock-ee here, Mr. Cracker-barrel" said the man wearing one gum boot, "Til have to call yoa down on a statement yoa made awhile ago, and give you a mite of cheese to nibble at in return. Yoa said the academy building cast over $11,.. Now. yoa know that isn't true, and that it only cci between $7,0 aad and what's the sense in loggia' the school question in wits tbe water works I'll answer your last question first," re.

Perhaps the academy baitd ing only did cost 'aj, but a handsome fence waa pat around the entire square, a heater was put in ibe building, a well dug on tbe lot, down almost lo China, and from which it is almost impossible to get drop of water, because il was dug three times as deep as it should hare been. The whole square is covered with trees and shrubbery, planted so close together tbat they can't grow, and several other Items of expense bave swelled the original cost or HX'V. know teat i cave been paying a building tax for years, and that tbe debt lias not been diminished, and I like to know by what aatboity that money Las been turned over lo employing new teachers? these si a iters ought to be all set right, so tbat the taxpayers may know just where Uiey stand before they assume a $27 u. debt for water works." ro opposed lo bonding the borough for water works," said the prvpery owner look icg for a job, 14 because my taxea are already too high, and the ocjusinesa of this election is bothering me good bit, but I don't see how tl is lo be avoided.

The fellows wbo are loudest for water are fellows who own no property, and pay no tax. What have tbey to vote taxes oo rue? Then, again, there are number of people temporarily res-ding in this town, who want to vote a water tax on us property owners. By what method of reasoning should ibey be permitted to rote on this quesiiooT And again, a large percentage of the taxable real estate in Somerset is owned by women, who will have no right lo vote on the question, but who will bave to bear lb burden of iucr.a-'ed taxation, simply because a lot of non residents and Don-taxpayers want, as they say "all tbe com torts of home' Well put, well pat, indeed:" said Whiskers, choking in a wild attempt lo revive tne k.umhenug spark in bis toby. Tbe-e feiiows msy bave a legal right to cast their votes oo this question, but what moral nghl bare icey. I uke to know T' auto others as yoa souid be done by, poked in the cracktr-tarri man, "even if it is to curuul tne ot a widow, aud piace man gage oa her home for ibe sake ot a pleasure yun will never ei joy." "It is preposterous idea." aaid the lawyer, tor tbe people ol ibis town to vote an iodctxneaa ol and ibca place it a the disposal of the burgts aud town council to xpei.d aa they tee fit by can't the) aukc a statement over their own signature showing what they hate done and what ieaous ibey have lor thinfciiig that water system can be introduced from Lbat abumin-sate mud ho, Kimberty ran.

Bah! ibe people who pay the taae are me per.cs wno are moat interested aud I would cau tioo tbera to look welt to tbeir interests woen they Vote on this question. A Dunirstr oi plana lave been suggested, any one of which I regard as feasible, but the town council refuse to consider them, while we are asked to aulborixe tbera to create an indebtedness of large dimensions witboot knowing what system will be adopted. Let tbe voters look at this a business men ard there will be no doabt as to the result of the bailou." "Yes, bat yon are against progress." said the booao-town man. "Yoa woald sit idly by and 1st all tb world laugh at Somerwt for 'ft her cuiaeus lack enterprise." "Enterprise be hanged retorted the lawyer.

"Here is a proposition from one offering to pot in electric lights if granted a franchise of th street, without asking a cent from anybody.

"This water talk mal es me sick." said the shop-keeper, as be began shoveling coal into the stove and preparing the fire so that it woald keep throughout tbe r.iirht, "and I wish all yoa fellows would go somewhere else lo loaf onlem yoa can find something else to talk about." "Tbe tariff" a tax," croaked the erscker- barrel man, "and so are public schools, and public roads, and ali other public institutions, bat maybe," aad he wicked the ether eye, "water works in Somerset will be self-sustaining, free trade, as it were." And thus the talk continues from night to eight around the store stove, while the great fire within ccrakles aad laughs at the views expressed by the sturdy citizens until tl is finallv smothered by tbe good shop keeper, who longs for an opportunity to as quietly Strang! the water debate and torn the attention of tb "argySers" to raising ducks.

id This hitherto healthy little town is cow experiencing a severe season of affliction. Fully one-half of its citizens are down with a malady, which, if not grippe in ita worst form, is something equally as bad, if not even Worse. Tbe victims are taken with cnills and fever, severe pains in the head and limbs, accompanied with stomach sickness and vomiting Some cases are of two week's continuance and while the sympt oms have usually been of an alarming chat, acter, no deaths have yet ocenred. The disease, in most instances, has claimed for its victims every member of a family, thus leading lo the opinion thai it is more or less coutsgioas. 1 he usual remedies rf sorted to for severe colds do not sotrn to bave acy perceptible effect.

Quinine aad favorite cocgh sytups afford no relief. The remarkable fact about it is tbat this tjwa has always been noted for its uniform good health. While neighboring eomrcuni lies have beea scourged with epidemics, Somer field bas been singularly exempt from everything cf the kind. Such diseases as typhoid fever, dyseatary, diphtheria, etc bave never beea known to prevail here, and while the grip reveled ia iu work in the surrounding country last year, there was cot a well deflaed case in this place. Much speculation i icdulred in as to the cause of the present As it is popular just cow to lay ail sickness in cities a no large towns lo tae water that is used, some of the knowing one charge it ail op to the well-water of the town.

But others uke no stock in this theory, on tbe ground that no purer water is to He found anywhere than is pumped irom their wells, and that while impure water might be a factor in producing diseases mere is no rea-on to think il ia an aency ia la grippe.

Hay wc add, a merry Christmas and a happy New Year (1S92 i to BespeetfuIIy, COOK EEF.RITS.- hover elf the "Queer" Trapped. To-day morning two strangess, one about fifty and th other thirty years of ape. stopped at the resideuce of Daniel Coleman, fiv mile east of town, and bocght two glasses of cider. They offered a silver dollar in payment and received 95 cents ia chance frum eoe ef th women of th family. Tb men were away from home at tbe lime, but when they returned, shortly ti irwards.

they discovered tnat Use doiuu was a coun terfeit Frank Meyers, whs 'ii-s with Mr. Coiemaa, started, ia panruit of the counterfeiters and followed them to town. About half peal lour o'clock Meyers dav covered oo of the men in Coleman's eating boose, In the act of passing another dol lar. Siepping op to the counter Meyers said, That a counterfeit doiiar." "I know it is," was the reply. "Yoa are tb nun wbo gave the woman a counterfeit dol lar at Grandpap Coleman's this continued Meyers, and I want it back." At this the man bolted out of the store and down tbe street towards the railroad station, closely followed Meyers.

He passed the station and hurried into the office of tbe Mechanical Works, aai when Manager Snyder looked cp tbe man raised his hand and exclaimed, "for God's sak doo't say anything." and dropping into a chair, palled off his boot. His stocking and drawer leg were filled with bright dollars, all of which he cast Into the stove in a twinkling. Before Mr. cy der could End time to re monstrate, th stranger had replaced his boot and stocking, and had the second one off. At this juncture a seep was heard the door, and the frightened man threw his stocking, in which were a cumber of dollars, into Ibe stove, aad was in the act of drawing on his boot when Meyers appeared.

I want that dollar hack yoa look from the women this morning," said he, and another dollar for roaring after it." I have no counterfeit money about my clothes" waa the reply; "yon can search me. It was the other fellow who had the money. All I have is a dollar and seventy cents, and yoa can take that." Meyers took th proffered money and left, and moment afterwards tbe stranger disappeared in the dartness. Mr. Snyder recognised th stranger as a tramp foandryoian, wbo bas visited this place oo several accasiona.
