Davies, Came ron candidate for lieutenant govern or, in the Philadelphia Times of De cember 24, the day after the com mittee of the Continental conference issued its address. It svould be in teresting to know what candidate Davies' opinion now is: 11 You desire me to talk about the object of our organization. Well, our chief complaint is this: The managers of Philadelphia political affairs as well as those of Pittsburg iiave everything in their cwn hands, and by carrying a few counties with them they secure political control of the state. It makes no difference what the wish of the people may be their desires are set aside and prac tically ignored. Why, in my can vass for state treasurer I would have been elected, receiving three votes to one for my opponent, had the people been allowed to carry out their wishes. I could have had the Philadelphia delegates with mc but why I did not? Simply because our party has been guided by men who invariably deny that the mas ses of people have any right to a voice in the matter of nominations ! to office. The people declare that A 1 shall be nominated, but a junto says he shall not but B shall. This is not true republicanism and we pro test and shall continue to proeesb and we believe our protest will be heard." THE PROHIBITION TIDE. Politicians at a Loss to Know How to Moot It.. WASHINGTON, August, 123.—The rapid spread of the prohibition move inent and its aggressiveness tonfWe and alarm politicians here. They do not know what to make of it or how to treat it. All popular movements resting on moral and sentimental grounds are objects of annoyance to the practical politicians. The re ports from the west show that the movement is assuming formidable proportions, and is infecting large districts of territory. That it will play an important in determining the results of the campaign in the com ing elections is acknowledged, and the movement is looked upon as one that will not expend its strength in the immediate future. CAMPAIGN ASSESSMENTS. How the DistfracefuTWork gooaon. WASHINGTON, August 23.— The assessment agents of the Ilubbell committee are visiting to-day the army an 3 navy departments. All the departments are systematically worked. The modus operandi is as follows: The committee assign one or more agents to each department. They visit the chiefclerks of the diff erent bureaus and ask permission to call on the clerks. 7'his is granted; whereupon the agents, who have complete lists of the clerks, showing their salaries and who have and who have not subscribed, go to those who have iguored the Hu bbell cir cular and ask them for a subscrip tion equal to two per cent, of their salaries. The demand is generally complied with in cash or a promise to pay 011 the following pay day. 7'he name is then checked olf and the agent proceeds on his route. IN Philadelphia tlic Committee of One Hundred are determined to have a fair election as far as in them lies. Tlicy just issued a cir cular offering SI,OOO, to be distri buted as rewards to persons whose testimony shall lead to the convic tion of election assessors willfully falsifying or ne gleeting their lists or failing to sit for correction of the list at the time and places specified by law. For the first five convic tions, rewards of §IOO each, and for the next ten of SSO each, wili be paid* SENATOR Hoar, of Massachusetts, has consumed five columns of small tvpc to explain why he voted for the river and harbor bill and it will take at least five columns more to make his vote satisfactory to the people of his state. CHAIRMAN llensel has appointed P. Gray Meek secretary of the state committee. Just the very chap who can do the business right. Our wide-awake chairman could not have made a better selection. IT is estimated that the ludcpcnd cuts will poll 500 votes in Blair county. Let them ] oil away. A Significant Prophecy. Beaver has been interviewed fre quently .since bis nomination and al ways confidently predicted his election. Stewart has beeu interviewed once or twice and expressed faith in fiia suc cess. Arinstong now comes to the front and declares that the battle is between Beaver and himself, and that he will defeat Beaver. Pattison is the only candidate who hasn't proclaimed his own election in advance. He seems to be busy controlling the public ac couuts of Philadelphia, but he may rise up about the morning after the e lection and express his confidence in his own success.— Times. SILAS M. CLARK, Democratic uomi nee for Judge of the Supreme Court, is a successful farmer as well as a distin guished lawyer. Ilis farm will yield one thousand bushels of wheat and rye this year, all which is harvested and partly threshed. Governor Colquitt, of Georgia, is an open advocate of prohibition, and makes speeches in which lie tells his hearers that Georgia will never amount to anythiug great until liquors of all Kind are banished from her borders. That's it Exactly. All the Pennsylvania Democrats have to do to win a great victory in this fight is to attend to their own bus iness and leaye the Republican factions alone. Meeting of the Northern Con ference. The Northern Conference of the Synod of Central Pennsylvania met at Hartleton, Union county, Tuesday evening Aug. 22nd ISB2.

Biekle, Pennsylvania College. After the usual routine business was disposed of, an able and comprehensive essay on the Sxond Article of the Atujs burg Con fession was read by Rev. 8. Heuiy, followed by a discussion on the same, until the hour of adjournment, In the afternoon Rev. J. W. Goodlin delivered a very inteiesting address on the home mission work of the church. Eev. 1\ A. Ileiliua.i followed with a well-prepared essay on The Object of Cu'echfiical Instruction. The essay e licited some veiy practical and instruc tive remarks by ltevs. Fisher, S. E. Furst, and others. In the evening Rev. A. K. Zimmer man preached a discourse on Jknevo lence, to a full audience, after which a collection for home missions was taken up. Thursday morning Prof. Biekle, in ! an address of half an hour, gave a very satisfactory statement of the status, work and prospects of Pennsylvania College. The mooted question, How shall Pro tracted JUcettngs be cmdncicd ? was opened by Rev. W. E. Fisher. This subject was discussed by several minis ters with much earnestness ; and while it was plainly manifest that. differences of opinion do exist on the vexed ques tion, it was agreed on all hands that all religious services should he con ducted "decently and in order." In the afternoon an interesting chil drens 1 meeting was held. The spa cious church was well filled. Rev. J. W. Goodlin spoke to the children on Little Things , B. O. Deininger on Jew els, and Rev. W. E. Fisher on A Miss of P's. Thursday evening Rev. i>. E. Fursfc delivered the closing sermon to a large and attentive audience, after which conference adjourned to meet at Salona Monday evening Nov. 27th next. The members of conference were most royally entertained by the good people of llartleton. All the sessions were well attended and much interest was manifested in the exercises. There is reason to believe that mutual and lasting good will result from this meet ing of the Northern Conference. # * _ * SENATOR John Stewart and Levi Bird Duff are announced to speak at Somerset on the 30th instant. Sews Siiscciinny. Yellow fever rases i:i Texas, and the Health Board of the State of Mississippi lias quaran tined many railroad stations on the border* of the State. Dime novel reading inspired three Shaniokin boys to play "go west and slioot Indians/' The affair had a tragic end, one of the boys accU dently shooting himself with a revolver, the shot proving fatal. A rattlesnake with seventeen rat tics was killed in the streets of Muncy recently, The house of a Somersot county fanner was entered by a gang of bur glars who chlorofoimed the sleeping inmates and stole thiiteen hundred dollars. In Illinois potatoes arc offered for twenty-five cents per bushel for fall de livery, with no takers. At asocial gathering in Washington a riot was inaugenftcd in which stones were thrown, windows demolished, doors smashed down, chairs broken, while one young man had all his teeth knocked out and another was stabbed with a butcher knife. The ringleaders in this pleasant entertainment were arrested. A .Johnstown landlord failed(to put the print ed notices in his hotel in accordanae with the law of IS7<>, and when lie bronght,*nction against aboarder retaliated by bringing suit against the landlord for not complying with the law in having notices posted, and there .Is a fair pros pect that lie will go to jail for something less than six months unless the matter is com pro. mised. Landlords and boarding bouse keepers will save trouble and expense by having the law pbsted in office and bedrooms. The new postal money order bill promises to be a measure of real convenience to the pub lic. Orders for a sum less than $5 will cost 3 cents, and t.e service is extended so as to raise the limit of orders from *">o to *IOO. Far ther, persons win not be required to fill out a blank, as at present, for an order, but will re ceive au order payable to the bearer at the money-order office designated by the applicant, flie hew notes are to be handsomely engraved and in appearance will not be unlike bank notes. There is excitement in sporting cir cles at bhaoiokin over tho shooting match soon to take place between Karstetter and Fromelter for a purse ot SIOO. SHORT WlLT..— Thomas Kcl ley's will, recently probated in Philadelphia, read as follows: "1 will that Margaret Kellcy, ray] wife, shall have this property and j house while she lives and do as she wishes with it." Ambrose Lindsey, of North Carolina can go to Europe. His potato crop is gathered and sold, and his net profit on the SSO,OOO he rec eivt d something over $50,000. A good farm in Indiana has been al lowed to run to weeds foi five years, because of a belief that it is under the curse of a former owner, whose ghost walks the field night, and would make it unpleasant for a tenant. Tho Law and Order League of Mount Joy, Lancaster county, have posted up throughout that town the following notice. Tho League crald find lots of work in other towns than Mount Joy, throughout tho state: "The Law and Order League hereby gives notice that the laws against pro fanity will be strictly enforced. All citizens are requested to bring informa tion aud assist in rooting out this per nicious practice." A NOVEL DUEL. Doeperate Battle Botwoon a Cat and a Snake. Pussy's Clever Stratagem. From llm New Yurk Sun. Garter-snakes abound In Tromonfc. A gentleman win* recently took a liouse near One lln nil red and Seventy eighth street and Third avenue said ys teiday to a remitter: 4, 00 Wednesday morning as 1 was dressing I looked out of the wiudowand saw the cat acting oddly. She was springing from side to side and evidently trying at times to avoid something and then to seize it. I hurried into the garden and found the cat engaged in a fight with a gar ter-snake. The reptile was so intent on keeping its enemy in-fore it, it's on ly hope for life, that it did not see me, but the cat noticed my approach, though she lost none of her vigilance in doing so. She is a small animal, a capital raouser, but certainly inexperi enced as a snako- killer. She seemed at first a little frightened, but seeing me she gained courage and her attacks up on the snake Ixcutm fieioer and more frequent. 4 lt was like a sparring match. Eve ry effort of the cat to seize the snake waß foiled by the rapid movement of the reptile, which repeatedly struck fiercely at it? u. c suilant, heating her back, but apparently not iijuringher. Finally the cat adopted curious tactics. She walked roun d and round the snake, forcing the latter, with its I ead raided high above the grass, to twist in one direction in order to face her, until its body assumed a spiral form. Of course it could not continue t! is movement indefinitely, ard wh< n it could go no further and the cat still moved a roand it, th reptile, with lightning like rapidity, twirled the other way. For the infiuitessiiual part of a ] second its eyes were not turned towards its enemy; but it was enough. The cat had been watching for the opportunity thus offered, and, quick as it was the snake's movement, her own was quick er. Before it could face her she had seized it about four inches below the head. In vain the snake writhed and coiled around her. Itcculdnot shake off the cruel hold, which wa3 only ro ll r,quirked v! en tl.e reptile's head was entirely severed from its body. "The cat then made an attempt to fe.il upon her yictim'sfl.sh, but, appar ently not liking tbe meal, turned and walked away. I examined her, but as far as I could see the snake's teeth had not penetrated her fur. The snake was a little more than three feet long." —lXm't forget that it takes money to get uniforms for our band and that you ought to help them along next Friday and Saturday.
