THURSDAY, OCTOBER 22ND, 1885. Published by R. A. BUMILLER. DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET. FOR STATK TREASURER, CONRAD B. DAY, OF rmLA.ma.PHi .v. . DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET. Fnr Jktry Cbminiasioner —JOHN ROAN", Fbr,.Coroncr—Dr. H. K. HOY. DAY'S candidacy for the state treas ury is a case where the office seeks the man, not the man the office. THE democratic ticket in Pennsyl . vania in short is—Conrad B. Day, an honest business man for a jx>silion of trnst and business. BY getting out a full vote, Pennsyl vania's democracy will elect Conrad B. Day, on the 3rd of next month. Bear this in mind, democrats, and work for success. OHIO'S state election, on Tuesday| ot last week, resulted in a republican vic tory. Judge Foracker was elected governor with a plurality of about 19,000 over Iloadly. Dr. Leonard, the tempeiaLce candidate, received about 25,000 votes, which is more than the prohibitionists ever before had in the state. The legislature is republican by a majority of 3 ,on a joint ballot. The result is no disappointment t odeuio crats, as Ohio, like Peunsylvania, is a republican state, and the election of a democrat can only be expected under extraordinary circumstances. The con stitutional amendmeut, changing the time for elections from October to No vember, was carried. IN nearly all elections so far, the de mocracy of this couuty has proved it self wide awake and willing to do its full duty. We" hope it will not be found wanting in this fall's battle, but * advance ia close rauks aud assist in the election of our excellent candidate, Co nrad B. Day, by a strong vote: Oar state chairma •, W. U. Hensel, is con fident of success, provided all demo crats make it a point to cast their bal lots for Day next Tuesday a week. See to it that you and your neighbors are at the polls, and do not rest until you are .assured that a full vote has been cast in your community for an honest and upright man and against a corrupt and unfit political boss. Against Quay. PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 16 — The Re publicans and Independents opposed to the election of Colonel M. S. Quay to the office of State Treasurer, have sent out over 5,000 circular letters to Republicans throughout the State. At the headquarters a couple of clerks are engaged in sending out mail matter, and during the next two weeks the gentlemen interested in the movement to defeat Colonel Quay expect to do a great deal of work. Letters are be ing received from parties expressing sympathy with the efforts that are being m'ade, the writers promising their aid. A circular will be sent out indicating three ways in which to de feat the Republican candidate: Ist, for Republicans to remain away from the polls; 2nd, to vote a blank for the of fice of State Treasurer; and 3rd, to vote for Conrad B. Day, the Democratic candidate. The New Tax Law. The people of Pennsylvania would do well by an early and careful study of the new tax law passed by the re cent Legislature and approved on the 30th of June last. It works a radical change in the taxation of personal property, not so much in the funda mental system of taxation as in the 6tringent methods by which it is ad ministered and enforced. BY the new law all mortgages.mon ey owing by solvent debtors, all agree ments bearing interest, except notes or bills for work or labor done or ob ligations given to banks for loans, and all public loaDS or stocks, except State or National or Building Association, and all money loaned or invested in other States, are now taxable at the rate of three mills on the dollar for State purposes and they are by the same law "exempt from all taxation except for State purposes." This three mill tax covers all bank, saving fund, safe deposit, guarantee and every form of financial stocks. All stages, omnibuses, hacks, cabs and any other vehicles used for passenger hire, also pay a three mill tax on their value, and all annuities over two hundred dollars, except those granted by the State or National government, pay a like tax. The radical change in the method of enforcing the new tax law consists in requiring every citizen to make re turn under oath of all mortgages and other investments or incomes made taxable, and in case of refusal to- make return under oath, the assessor is re quired "to make return for suck tax able person, estimating the amount from the best information at his com mand, to which estimated return the proper County Commissioners or Boards of Revision shall add fifty per centum and the aggregate amount so obtained shall be the basis of taxa tion." Such return may be corrected on or Iwfore the day fixed for appeals from assessments, only by the taxable person presenting good reasons under oath for the failure to make the return. Our tax system in Pennsylvania has been very loose and inefficient so far as it related to personal property and money at interest, and the result has been that only a very small pro portion ot the money at interest pay any tax at all. Under the new law there can be no evasion ot the lawful tax without absolute perjury, and there is a dangerous as well as dis graceful method of evasion. The new law was necessitated by a rtcent de cision of the Supreme Court,by which a large amount of rcvenuo would have been lost in corporation bonds without a remedial statute.— Time*. Judge Foraker to Stump New York. NKW YORK, October 17. -Judge Foiaker has accepted an invitation by the Republican Slate committee to stump the State of New York for Davenport. Dr, W/tite's New Offioe. II ARRTsnuno,October lfi.—The Gov ernor to-day appointed Dr. J. William White Trustee of the Eastern Peniten tiary,in place ot Mr.Harrison,deceased. A large number of letteis had been written to the Governor requesting his appoiutment. "John Ploughshare" Against Quay. Alfred Sharpless, one of the most intelligent Republican of Chester coun ty, widely known by his terse and vigorous writings over the nom de glu me of "John Ploughshare," sends the following note to the Local News of W®Bt Chester: Mr. ILDITOU— In your edition of the 12th you copy from the Philadelphia Press as an item of news, from a Media conespondant, a communication in which it is stated that the Republicans of the county are "practically united, and a majority of those who have form erly acted with the Independents have declared for the whole ticket." Now, this is not true, and if Mr. Cooper is placiug any reliance upon such infor mation he will be badly left. But he is not doing so, for our state ticket and that thousands of earnest Republicans will let it go by default, if they do not vote directly against it. A number of active Republicans from both Chester and Delaware counties, who have never been identified with any Independent movement, have asked me "what shall be done with a ticket that is so distaste ful to our sense of duty, and so injuri ous to the interests of our party?" My advice has been to go and do what you think is honest and right, let the con sequences be what they may. Do your own thinking and voting and you will be better satisfied with yourselves if not with the results. It is discourag ing that our grand old party with its noble principles should be brought so near to rum for the sake of keeping a few machine roosters, who can never be satisfied, in fat offices all their days. In the interest of tiuth and honesty. Y on rs, JOHN PLOUGIISIIAUE. Miscellaneous News. • A twenty inch eel was iccenlly taken out of one of the Wiliiainspoit water-pipes.

Drunken Men Who Fooled With a Gun. IIA/.LETON, Oct. 10.—Threo intox icated young men, named Robert Fichter, Edward Burtley and Thomas Scott, were handling an old gun here this afternoon and Burtley loaded both barrels with a heavy charge of powder aud shot, lu attempting to put on a cap the hammer of the gun fell and the cap was exploded. The barrels, being overcharged, burst and oue of the Hying pieces of iron entered Ficter's head. He ran about thirty yards and then dropped dead in the raad. Scott was terribly cut about the head and face and body and is not ex pected to recover. Burtley's right arm was so badly mangled that it had to be amputated and he was otherwise in jured, his face being bally burned. Fatal Meeting With a Panther. BIGLER,Pa.,Oct. 15.—Boon's Moun tain has been the scene of a thrilling and fatal hunting adventure. Two young trappers, named Albert Archer and Richard Anson, while on the Clear field side of the mountain, heard the cry of a panther. Archer went in the direction of the animal, leaving his companion to follow. Reaching a clear ing in the forest, Archer came upon the feline. Before he could raise his rifle the cougar pounced upon him and in flicted such terrible injuries with its teeth and claws that, upon the arrival of Anson, Archer was dead. Auson fired several shots at the retreating creature, but none of them took effect. The lumbermen have orgauized a hun ting party, and a rigorous search will be made for the panther. Chinese Flocking East. PITTSBURG, Oct. 18. —For tliiity days past many Chinese have been passing through this city in parties of from 5 to 20 on their way east. Yesterday morning a half dozen Chinese, all of the better class, arrived at the Union Depot from Chicago, and left a few hours later for Philadelphia, Boston and New York. A rather venerable looking Mongolian, who seemed to be chaperoning the rest of the party,told a reporter in excellent English that he and his friends had left a more or less lucrative laundry business in San Josa and San Francisco because their lives were threatened by the very man whose shirts they washed. They all had a little money saved and were going to locate in the east. It is esti mated that over 500 Chinamen have pacsed through Pittsburg in their flight from the west since September 20. About 5 per cent, of them have got over their sr are and gone back. LEGAL ADVERTISEMENTS CAUTION —Having bought ait Constable's saile, Oct. Ttli. instant, the following piop ertv of Robert W.
