j HE USED HIS FIST Sam Kuntz Objects to Berne Witness Editorial and 1 Goes for Editor, ' INVADES HIS OFFICE Smashes His Eye-glasses. Knocks Out a Tooth and ’ Cut His Lip—Arrested. Fred Rohrer, editor of the Berne Witness, ana Known stare wide as an , anti seloon man, who has been the victim of many assaults and plots, resulting from his war waged against the liquor traffic, and especially in the ( driving away of *he saloons in Berne, was the victim of "Mother assault Fri- : day morning. Sataaei Kuntz of Berne : being the aggressor,. • The cause of this assault was the editorial published in the Berne Witness Friday, on Does Mr. Beer Rei ply?” regarding the letter published I in the Democrat last week by Trusi tee Beer, in answer to charges of al- , leged misappropriation of funds. In i Friday's editorial the following is ' said of Mr. Kuntz: ‘ When Samuel Kuntz delivered the three car loads of coal to the township last summer for $420.45, it was said here in town that he also set up a keg of beer at the Beer home and that Mr. Beer invited a few of his neighbors, those of his kind, to an allday frolic on Sunday. If this is true, we wonder if the bill for coal didn't also include the beer? Mr. Kuntz is known to have been dealing in beer but not in coal, while there are many regular coal dealers in the township of whom Mr. Beer could have bought his supply of fuel for the school houses.” Friday's Witness was no sooner on the street, it seems, than Mr. Kuntz, loused to anger, rushed into the private office of Mr. Rohrer at the Witness office, about 8:30 o’clock, Friday morning, and proceeded to use his fist on Mr. Rohrer. The editor wore eye-glasses and these were broken, the pieces cutting Mr. Rohrer's nose. One tooth was knocked out, and the heavy ring worn on Mr. Kuntz' hand left a cutting .nark on Mr. Rohrer's lip. Mr. Koontz was hammering away on the editor when one of the Witness' employees rushed to the assistance of Mr. Rohrer, striking Mr. Kuntz over the head with a large spool of wire. Mr. Kuntz finally took ;to his heels, and deft the office, only to be arrested later on a charge of assault and battery preferred by Deputy Prosecuting Attorney C. Lantzenheiser. He appeared in the court of Jus-; , tice Liddy and pleaded guilty to the . charge and was fined $1 and costs, amounting in all to $9.65. MONEY-MAKING STORE FOR SALE.
