As will In-seen elsewhere, our Judi
cial Conveuiion wits held last Thurs
" day. Hon. Wm. 1). Brown, of
Warren, was nominated liy acelnma
tion for President Judge. Neither Elk
nor Forest presented n candidate, be
ing completely satisfied with ouim.
We need hardly Hay that Mr. Brown
is very acceptable to the bar and peo
ple generally in all theeountles of this
district. Not only the Republicans
but many Democrats will (live him a
cordial support because of his superior
fitness for the place. As n lawyer he
lias no superior in the district. As a
citizen he is universally respected and
trusted for his strict integrity and
moral worth. For thirty years or
more he has stood in Hie front rank of
the Waireii bar,, noted for his sound
judgment, discreet management of
difficult cases, and fidelity to every
trust. His inihienec and t sample aie
always on the side of good morals and
the best interests of society. Our
friends in the other counties may be
assured that their generous confidence
in him lias not been misplaced. I lis
whole time and attention arc ;i von to
the profession in which he lias always
taken special pride. lie is in the
prime of life and can stand any
amount of hard work, Judire Wet
morc retires with much credit, and
has reason to bo satisfied that the du
ties so well discharged by himself, will
b.; safe in the hands of such a succes
sor. Our bar has a good ivcord on the
bench, and we predict that in ruse ot
Mr. Brown's election he will in no
manner damage its well earned fame
for legal learning and personal worth.
Clarion ! jndilir?tn: From vari

reports of the establishment, of Oil
field Clubs, intended to further trie
interests of the .Republican ticket
during the campaign. This is busi
ness. A Club can do a vast amount
of good and there should be one in
each township ami village in Clarion.
The canvass will be a warm one, the
enemy will resort to all the tactics
known to the trade, and voters reiiiiie
to be properly iu formed regarding the
issues of the period. To this end
correct information should be widely
disseminated, and we oiler the 11'inth

mand. Twenty years witliin si.rht of

mission ol the party thai, saved the
Union is not ua-r. It behooves us ail,
therefore, to do what we can to give
our grand old party the party that
made four millions of men IVte a
fresh lease of power. Let I hero be a

amusing, and the lack of genuine en
thusiasm demonstrated the entire
want of any sympathy between the
masses of the party and their candi

Democracy has it been so dillicult to
organize as it is this year, the state

A Democratic Opinion of Forney,
From the riltsliuiKh CotinnorHul Ri-pub.j

moment that among the callers on
General Hancock, Suturd.iy last, was
John V. Forney. If those having
General Hancock In training are wise
they will see to it that Colonel Forney
Is not permitted to "run him." After
he left the pro-sla very Democracy, in

and the Democratic! party ranked him
among the most dangerous and treach

There Is no telling what influence
such a political trimmer as Forney
may exert over a callow statesman
like II uncock, under pretens -of obtain
ing facts for the forthcoming "Life"
of that superb general and magnifi
cent lighter. A "political prolligate"
who could serve as the "tool of the ex
treme slavery propagandists" in 1V4,
would be capable of serving the rebel
brigadiers now, and thus becoming
the instrument for stirring up some
new "national tlilfieully." Demo
crats should take warning and keep
an eye on Forney, and Itcpiihliciu
should not vuii' for any mail coached
by him.
The Democratic conferees of this
Con.nrc-sional district met with the
Conferees of the Greenback party in
Clarion yesterday, and there is no
doubt but that a fusion was consum
mated, Mr. Jiimis Mosgrovc, a sup
porter of Jas. 1!. Weaver for President
being placed in n.enin n ion for Cen-cr-ss.
If j'ie Democracy of Ibis
di-trict have lost what little pride
and principle they ever had, and are
willing to siuhily themselves by such
an alliance, we know of no good
reason why they should not be per
mitted to do so. K. -publicans can
always depend upon the unwise and
foolish acts of the opposition to give
them tiic advantage, and in Ibis ease
the surrender of self respect and prin
ciple to the one object of availability
i in have no other o.i'cet than that of
disgusting the honest portion of the
party, who will spurn the eJlbrt to
trade in the suffrages of of the people
and refuse to be bound by the unholy
alliance. The schemes of the hungry
h.-r.Ie will come to grief, no man ad
vocating the dishonest principles of
the "rag baby" party can succeed in
this district. Brook viile Ji,jntij!irat,

The Irish Republican convention
closed its labors last evening with the
adoption of an address to the Irish
Anierh an citizens of the United
Stales, which will hu found in another
CohiMli of this issue of the Joui'mt!.
The convention was u delegate body,
having rep;vseiit::!ivcs present from
seventeen Stale, while letters were
read from earnest sympathizers with
the cause in many others. Though
not lair" in nufiber.-, the mcot i u .-s of
the convention were characterized by
great earii(.st:i'.:-s and cut Vi-i-i-in. and
I all who pariieipriied in- it are abuiid
i untl.v satisfied wi.h the re-iilt of iheir
j label'.-, ti" y belb.viiig that the hour
has'eomc when intelligent citizens of
Insh birth or descent are awakening
to the fact that they have too long
hem the tools of designing politi.-ian
and the blind devotees of partisan
prejudice. The nddn-ss of the con
vention is temperate and manly in
tone. Jt makes no pretense of a clahii
to eon.-itkration for Irish-Americans
on account of their former nationality,
but protests that they should not be
proscribed on account of the accident
of birth in foreign land. It shows
that Irishmen owe nothing to the
Democratic parly, but that, on the
other hand, they would consult their
best inicre-ts by adhering to the Re
publican party, which lias always
been the friend of human rights.
Indianapolis ( Jnd.) Jutiniah
Justice Sway ne of the Supreme
Court makes the following statement
in regard to the recent Democratic
roorback that he had severely con
demned General Garfield's course iu
thcDcGolycr matter in an official
opinion: "I never wrote a word of
what is attributed to me with quota
tion marks. I never knew anything
of the facts of the matter charged
again.-t General Garfield, and it was
certainly never iu any shape before
the Supreme Court. 1 hud, therefore,
neither occasion nor opportunity to ex
press any judicial opinion upon the
subject. It Is not stated where any
case in which General Garfield was
concerned is reported. My confident
impression is that I never heard of
such a case before. General Garfield
is a personal friend of mine, an J I
have the highest confidence in his iu
tegrity. The statements in the World
are an entire fabrication and w ithout
a particle of truth to sustain them."
Cleveland Herald: "On the first
vote, in which Hancock developed
t.treiigth in the Democratic Conven
tion, he received nearly a hundred
votes from the South; and the next
ballot the vote of the solid South .
cured him the nomination. He is the
choice of the Southern Brigadiers, and
he is bound If elected to carrv out
their wishes and policy. They will
nave made hint and he will be their
tool."
Clarion Counly a Judicial District.
t'liirlon Itopuhllonn.
Clarion county having now n popu
lation of over 4.).00:, will hereafter
constitute" a separate J u licial district.
The words used in Section 5 of the
new constitution, under the head of
"J udielary," are these:
Whenever a county shall contain
forty thousand inhabitants it shall
constitute a separate Judicial District,
an 1 shall elct one judge learned In
law; and Hie General Assembly shall
provldo for additional judges as the
business of the said district may re
quire." Accordingly it remains for the Leg
islature at the next session to declare
Clarion county a separate judicial dis
tri.'t, and at t he next general election
a Judge will be elected for this county
alone, its Jefferson county will be In
cluded iu a district to be yet formed.
The same section of the new con
stitution, (j.iotcd above, also says:
"The oltjce of Associate Judge, not
learned in the law, is abolished iu
counties forming separate districts.
'fills being Hie ease, next full there
will be no scramble among a lot of
moss-hack Democrats from the rural
districts for the nomination of Associ
ate J udge.
Milwaukee Sentinel: "Some one
has persuaded Tom Ewing of Onio
that the Democrats hive u lighting
chance in Wisconsin, and it, is possi
ble the bar'l will be rolled up in tills
direction. Asa Republican majority
is assured here, this will by a good
thing it will draw that much Dem
ocratic ammunition away from the
doubtful States."
The Puiladelphia Itrrrtrd says of
Secretary Schur.'s speech: "It is mod
erate in temper, dignified in state
ment and altogether admirable in tone,
and its calm and apparently candid
manlier, its entire freedom from vitu
peration and its e'ear, crisp and vig
orous sell ing forth of the claims of
General Garfield and the p irly he rep
resents will go far to win them votes.
Such n speech is worth spending the
time it takes to real it an assertion
(hut cannot ho undo of the average
poutual deliverance, from wnieh it
did'ers a the ut lerauc 's of a man who
rea;i.es tiic r.'sji msibilily of his po-i-t
ion a- a stales nan inu-t always differ
from the moulhhi of an irresponsi
ble demagogue."
Senator Bruce of Mississippi lias
had a long talk Willi the President
concerning the political situation in
his State, lie Inn no expect a! tons that
the Republicans can accomplish much
iu Mississippi, and says that the Dem
ocrats are determined to adopt their
old methods of campaign work if
necessary. The President declared his
intention of using all means at his
control to enforce laws guar ling i lec
tions. Senator Urui-.c thinks the Re
publicans at til ; S :ll!t i.M i do little to
oppose Democratic plans, but, he
thinks it wili do g I a' l ie X ;-t'i to
have it fully understood there that the
old methods used at. elections are to be
again practiced by Sent hern Demo

A fact which has been evident to the
general public for some tlmu has at
length penetrated the consciousness
of a Democratic editor. Since ,the
beginning of the can vass the Repub
licans have .had only to wait a few
days after tiic appearance of i Demo
cratic lie to see It take effect in the
form of renewing indorsements of the
ch iracter and ability of General Gar
field.
This latest lie that in retard to a
decision of the supreme court, in the
DeGo'yer case has brought an in
doivamioiit, of General Garfield which
could have been obtained in no other
way. It gave the opportunity to one
of the oldest and most esteemed jus
tices of the supreme court, an Ohio
man, wdio lias known all about Gar
field from his boyhood, to declare to
the country that he has the highest
confidence in Garfield's integrity mid
heartily wishes for hi election. The
lie about Grant's support of Hancock
brought an indorsement for Garfield
which the New York JferaUl says is
worth many thousands of votes to the
Republican ticket. Judge Black,
Judge Thurnian, Justice Field, Con
gressman Springer and other unim
peachable Democrats have been
moved by the mud-slinging of fools to
add their tistimony to the high public
character and personal purity of Gen
eral Garfield.
We Kinecrely hope that the fool
killer will go to Europe until after the
election. Prompt action iu this
country on his part would he a serious
misfortune to the ltepubliean cause.
Suppose he had been iu Indianapolis
on the 121st of June. He would have
been obliged to kill three IK mocraiic
judges of the Indiana supreme court,
and then there would have been no
overturning of the constitutional
amendments, no telegram "to the
"boys iu Cincinnati" who were wait
ing to launch a Hendricks' boom, with
the infoi-iiiition that Indiana wa-
again an October state. Suppose lie
had been on duty in the same city
when the Indiana state convent ion
met? He would certainly have pre
vented the nomination of Fran!; Lan
der, who is ruining the las! chances
of the Democrats in the October state
aforesaid. How good for our cause
was it, too, that the fool-killer did not
happen to come across Senators Wal
lace and McDonald ten days ago. In
thai case he would have been (im
pelled to kill tlicni before the examin
ation of Johnny Davenport. W hat lots
of good campaign material we should
have mi.-sed then !
No, no, Mr. jv,, d-killerl Take a
vacation, or if you must lie at wot k
go to Georgia, where the Republicans
liuee split a minority party into three
pieces ; or to the first Minnesota di
trict, where the same party is en-acd
in electing a Democrat from a district
which has ten thousand Republican
majority.
Cincinnati sizlu: "The best
way, iu oui-opiuiou, to heal the dis
sensions in 1 1 to D.'mo' ia'iie party, to
reward the worthy ami punish the
conspirators and at the same time pcr
serve the integrity of the country, is
to elect Garfield President. Thats
the way that will be chosen too."
Dayton to.) J-mrnal: "The best
reason iu the world why our young
men should be Republicans, us indeed
most of them are, is found in the
Democrat h; platform, which indoics
all the leading doctrines held by Re
publican lor the pa-! twenty years
and abandons most of the principles
hitherto recognized as Democratic.
New York Jfu'ufd; "ft is pro
bable that General Hancock's per
sonal command never included more
than twenty thousand Republicans,
only about one-half of who:n arc now
alive. If all of these, in personal loy
alty to their old chief, should vote the
Democratic ticket this fall they would
not be numerous enough in any doubt
ful State to turn the balance, and
their combined vote would make but
a feeble show for or against cither
party. All this' proves nothing
against General Hancock's t unques
tioned popularity among his men; it
merely shows upon how small a basis
some partisans arc doing exieasive
figurine,."
Apropos of Mr- Schurz taken the
stump the 1'iihUa Lcdjvr remarks:
"Instead of objecting to such men
speaking, because they happen to hold
office or are in the Cabinet, they ought
to be encouraged to discuss public
alfairs before the pe plo on all oppor
tune occasions when their public
duties will permit their absence. It
is only the craze of partisanship that

j misunderstand the devotion of the
j Lcdfcr to civil service reform, but the
' nfoveuient iu its favor was never in-
tended to so muzzle an able public
officer as to prevent him from giving
the benefit of his knowledge and opin
' ion on tlie subjects he understands to
his fellow-citizens."
i The Portland (Mo.) rrcss of
Thursday nays: "Republicans are
greatly pleased with reports brought
in by Committeemen from all parts of
the State. I t is not often that so en
couraging accounts come in so early
in a campaign. The Republicans in
all the counties are well organized and
confident of victory, while the oppo
sition forces are demoralized, divided
aud unable to agree on a plan of ac
tion. The opposition to fusion is so
strong and determined that an at
tempt to carry out that scheme will
cost its promoter many votes.

' A NEW DEPARTURE! V
BEST PLOW IN THE WORLD!
THE 8YRACUSE CHILLED PLOW CO.
of Syrnouse, N. V.
Are novr putting on the market a Plow that
la as ttiinh superior to any Plow heretofore
made as t he Plows ot the puat tow years hav
been superior to those mode half a century
ago.
It combines all tho excellencies of anyPtoTf
In use.
It obviates all tho objections tnado to any
other Plow.
In addition It embraces several new features
of the grentcst value, for which we have ob
tained exclusive Patents.
Its Beiun.C'levls, Jnlnler Standard and Wheel
Standard will bo STEEL, and Its mold board
will be a composition of Steel and Iron chilled
under a process for which wo have also
obtained an exclusive Patent. It will lw
Called
THE SYRACUSE
CHILLED STEEL PLOW
Itswelght will be eighteen pounds less than
our present st yles.
A ursuelass Btcel Plow, made In tho or
dluary way, full rtftged, retails for twentj--two
dollars. Inferior "steel Plows retail from six
teen to nineteen dollars.
The prieo of our new Plow will be but
Seventeen Dollars, and It will DO the
cheapest Agricultural Implement ever sold.
Its mold board will outwear three ot the
very best kinds ot the ordinary steel mold
boards.
It will scour In soils where all steel plows
and nil other plows have hitherto proved a
failure.
With tlUs Plow will be Introduced a corru
gated Plow Point and Jointer Point, on which
we have also obtained a Patent, and which is
also a great Improvement, both as regards
strength and wear.
The Jointer can be shifted so as to take
more or less land, and also more or less pitch,
aud It can alwuys bo kept on a line with the
Plow.
The wheel will run under the beam or one
side of It as desired, and always kept In line, i
The beam Is adjustable for Spring or Fall
Plowing, and also for two or three horses.
The handles can be adjusted to accommo
date a man or boy, on the same Plow.
It Is a perfect Plow.
Wooden beams are going out of use because
they shrink, swell and warp, and never run
two seasons alike.
Iron beams are too heavy.
Malleable beams become demoralized aud
bend, which Is much worse than to break.
A Steel beam Is the necessit y ot the day. It
Is three times as strong and very much lighter
than any other style.
When ire say a Mold board Is chilled, the
farmers know It Is so.
We do not palm oIT on them a composition
of various metals and call It chilled metaL
We want agents for this new Plow In every
town In this State.
We can give but a very small discount to
them, but we will pay the Railroad Freight.
We propose to place this Plow In the hands
Ot Farmere as near the cost of manufacture
as possible.
It will be the best Agricultural Implement
ever sold.
It shall also bo the ehmivet.
Persons therefore who are not willing to act
as agents on the prlnclplo that "a nimble six
pence Is better than a slow shilling," need not
apply for an agency.
No Plows on commission. All sales absolute.
BTfThls Is tho only Steel Chilled Plow la
the World.
steel costs several times more than Iron.
But tins Plow, full rigged, by giving small
discounts, can be sold for Seventeen Dollars.
Compare this price with that of any Iron Plow
ever made.
It Is cheaper than any other Plow now
matlo would bo at live dollars and a halt
Where there are no acents we will, on re
ceipt of Seventeen Dollars, send a Plow to any
Hallroad station In the State and pay the
freight. Address,
