The attack upon Simon J. Straus, the democratic candidate for mayor, by the republican managers on account of his religion, is a chapter in local politics that does not reflect very much credit on the men who were mixed up in it. The insinuations and arguments used were’ as despicable as the m&hods ot the A. .

Never in the history of local politics did the Republicans of Ligonier make such a hard fight as they did this year.

It was stated by one of the witnesses that even if eggs used for cake, etc,, are putrid, the smell is ‘destroyed in the process of baking. The magistrate marked his sense of mniquity of the practice by inflicting a fine of ten pounds. ($5O) in one case and fiye pounds in the other.

THE CITY ELECTION.

Democrats Fare Exceedingly Well Con ‘sidering the Conditions and Cir- - ; cumstances.—A Hard Fight.

The second election under the new city government took place last Tuesday, and all admit that 1t was one of the most stubbornly contested political fights ever known in Ligonier. Never was there so much interest manifested in the outcome, nor can the oldest inhabitant give any 'parallel to the organization that had been perfected by both parties. The Republicans started out with a majority of at least forty back of their candidates and with the advantage of the possession of the municipal machinery. The convention, however, was so managed that it was made possible for the democrats to get'a foothold fora hard fight, and. they accepted the.opportunity for all it was worth, A good ticket was nominated and a hard fight was made to elect all of the candidates. Realizing that it took republican votes to elect any one of our- candidates all efforts were bent in that direction and. the result shows that we were ably assisted by some of our friends, the enemy. ‘Had the Democratic ticket been supported as loyally as it deserved by men who claim to be Democrats, but few of the offices would have gotten away. . Mr. Straus made a strong personal fight as did Mr. Vondersmith and other candidates on the ticket, but on the other hand the republican candidates and their friends were alert and active to a degree never manifested in in any local campaign in the history. of the party. : Mayor Weir has made a good officer as have Treasurer Zimmerman and Clerk Reed and it was up hill work to defeat gil:em, and there were many things that favored the candidacy of Harry Spurgeon for marshal. It was a clean campaign outside of the con- | temptible conduct of a few bigoted and narrow minded partizans, who tought Mr. Straus because he is a Hebrew. This was worked for all it was worth and one of the most gratifying things about the result was the rebuke of such methods by Mr. Straus’ triumphant election. . , The rebuke that was administered to a certain coterie of small bore. politicians was also one of the’ features of the fight. It will teach them to hereafter keep their hands off the political buzz saw while in motion. The vote is as follows: - _ , ‘

Sol Mier was on the ticket and: his majority is a flattering, indorsement. The meeting at Union hall on Monday night was not a success. The fellows that the bosses wantcd to reach were not there.

The candidates for mayor can pride themselves upon the vote in their own wards. They both ran ahead of the ticket in their own neighborhood. There seems to be a number of Democrats who will vote for Greely Zimmerman against anyone, as the party never put up a better man than John H. Green. :

E. E. Reed has made a splendid officer and the people haye given him a good vote. The democratic candidate had but little chance of winning and realized it from the start. . A Sad Death. Last Tuesday our people were appalled at the announcement of the death of Orrin M. Stage, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Stage, a young man well known in the community. He had been 11l less than a week, haying been attacked by scarlet tever and other complications setting’ in it was impossible to save his Jife. Mr. Stage had only been married a few days and leaves a young widow to mourn his sudden taking off. He: was about 22 years old, well educated and a popular young man. -
