■seared Coatracl Is Altooaa
Banks C. Lego, the well known
Bellwood contractor and house
builder, has secured a contract
for the erection of a duplex dwelling on Fourth avenue and loth
street in Altoona, and has begun
work on the same. Mr Lego
has erected a number ot homes in
Bellwood during tbe past few
years and bas given much satisfaction, lie states that that he
hss much work on band and will
be engaged the greater part of
the summer.
Hon. Simon Zook. ot Cuiry-
ville, one of tbe republican candidates for the nomination for
assembly in the Second legislative
district ot the* county, was in
Bellwood Saturday evening and
paid our office a call.
SIDELIGHT ON FISK LICENSES
Aliens From Other States lay Angle Free
While Residents Psy $1
Do you know that an unnaturalized non-resident of Pennsylvania may fi.ih in Pennsylvania
waters without taking out a license, just like a resident minor,
while au unnaturalized resident
taxpayer can't fish at all, and a
United States citizen from other
states must pay $5 a year for tbe,
privilege while a resident citizen
must pay $1 tor a license? That
seems to be the law, according to
high legal authority.
. The act of 1915 prohibits "unnaturalized foreign-born citizens
of tbe state" irom fishing at all,
aud tor the purpose of tbe act, it
defines '•residents" as ''being persons wbo have resided in Penn
sylvania for ten consecutive days.
Tbe act of 1919 prohibits nonresidents of Pennsylvsnis, citizens
of the United States, trom fishing
without a license, wbicb cost them
$5 The act of 1921 prohibits
residents ol Pennsylvania, citizens of tbe United States from
fishing without a license, tor
wbich the tee is $1. Resident
minors pay no license.
Diligent search does not reveal
any act of assembly regulating iu
any way fishing in this s'ate by
non-resident aliens. Fisherman
say this unjust and a peculiar
situation arises that non-resident
aliens ot any age, and minor state
residents, fish free. Tbe taxable
residents are taxed again in order
to fisb in their own state, while
Americau citizens ot Otber states
2HH* $**"*4S «**•**•-- saaaoa tor ibe
privilege, and unnaturalized citizens who are property owners and
taxpayers, can't fish at all.
In other words, a foreign-born
secfion gang, living over the Hue
iu New York state, who never
declared any intention of becom
ing citizens of the United States,
can jump on tbeir handcar, come
over the state line anywhere in
Pennsylvania, fish our waters
without license, and return tm.
m olrsted.
Ballot Positions
Lots for position on the ballot
for the spring primary election,
were drawn Wednesday at tbe
■Maty commissioners office at
tbe court house. As the candidates were all for the offiice ot
peounty commitees, there was no
interest evinced and none of tbem

no candidates appear, the commissioners designate some person
to do the drawing, which was
finished in a short time.

o'clock.    Neighbors in tbe  vicin-
J,y first saw "the tire and a bucket
brigade was formed, but tbe blaze
had gained   such   headway   that
they were unable to do anything
toward stopping its progress and
it   was   ne.c«ary   to   sound   an
alarm which quickly brought tba
Excelsior   firemen   to the scene.
After a half hour's tight the blaze
was conquored, but not until part
of tbe roof and some of tbe   ratters were destroyed.
The fire started from a spark
from tbe flue wbiob ignited the
shingles which wete quite dry.
The Misses Bell are very thankful

saving their borne.
