As there seems to be considerable criticism, concerning the circular distributed by the " Independent Re form Club of Lackii waxen, on the day of tho Democratic Caucus, Jan. 25th last, I owo it to myself and friends, to make the following state ment inasmuch as certain parties fool inclined to make the assertion, that I am the Author of tho samo. While I do not wish to critieiso tho contents of tho same, or depict tho wrongs, which those parties feel, have boon done them, 1 do positively deny of having anything whatever to do with tho same. If there is anything unjust or wrong in tho language of the same, it is not forme to judge. Tho affairs of this township have in tho past been handled very neglect full, nobody will deny. In conclusion I would say : Should I bo elected Town Clerk. I shall en deavor to serve the interests of the taxiiayers to tho best of my ability. J. M. Kciin. Feb. 4th 189(1. Rowland, Pa.

Wlmt nn Ri-Metnhcr of the 1piiitillenii ('lull of MHffimnrnti Sn.rN A Hint to Til lie t lie M I'rcM. " Matamoiias, Feb. 3, IRflfl. To tiik Eiiitoh ok THK Pukss : Al low me a little space in your valua ble paper for tho memliors of the club, known as the Republican' Club of Westfall, of which I was formerly a Memlicr and one of the organizers. The Republicans of Matamoras are men to lie proud of, always wide-awake andactive in the Campaign, I am interested as to the result of the spring election 1cause they have nominated a very strong ticket, one that fills tho Ilemocrats with despair. The men elected last spring have done well, and fully sat ielied their fellow-citizens, and those nominated to Ikj elected this spring are trust worthy and quallied to do their duty well and to the en tire satisfaction of all. Tho Demo crats nominated men who have been in office before. Why should they be elected? Is it liecanso thoso who vote for them want to go back to tho same old way? Tho Republicans are more modern in their ideas and will do tho best, for the people. Now let luo adviso my fellow-Republi cans to take tho Prkss. Why take tho Port Jervis papers? Is it because it is your habit and hard to break the same as the tolnieco habit. I havo boon accustomed to reading jmpers which contained only New York State politics for twenty years and nothing at all of what has been going on at tho capitol of our own state. If you read tho Prkss you will find that it prints the national news up-to-date and the polities and news of our own State as well as other items of interest. Tho Repub licans of Westfall are taking the Prkss in gixxlly numbers, and there is ovory indication that others, who are still ignorant of its merits, will also subscribe for tho lxst paper in northeastern Pennsylvania. Why take paiiors which contain only po lities of the States across the river ? I havo broken my old habit and now read the Phkss with tho great est interest. I predict for tho Re publicans of Westfall this spring a very handsome majority, and this means that tho Republicans have been sensiblo and wise in reading tho Phkss and also havo nominated such a splendid body of men to hxk after tho interests of that township. Yours truly, Tiik Color Bearkr. Tho Minisink Valley, Historical society will hold its annual dinner at Port Jervis, on Washington's birth day, February 2ind.

NATIONAL. NEWS. Sonic of tho senators who voted against sound money were Cameron, Tillman, Pcffer, Cockrell, Call and Voorhees. Tho Treasury Department is being flooded with bids for the bonds. Evidently tho government crodit is good. Congressman-at-Large Galusha A. Grow introduced a bill in tho House to aid in establishing homes for teaching articulate sioech and vocal language to d(af children, boforo they arc of school ago. It has lieen reiKirted favorably. Tho bond issuo is a big success. Bids aggregating t31S,299.830 have lx'en received at tho Treasury De partment ranging from par to 150. Political Notea. Ex-Senator Piatt's definition of his platform " I bolieve in Repub lican protection, in Republican abil ity to manage tho Nation's finances, in Republican Americanism, in Re publican intergrity and in Republi can uprightness of purxse "-- is gixxl enough for any Republican.
