DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET.
FOR ASSOCIATE JL'LHIK,
JOHN GBOVE, of Gregg tow nship
FOR SHERIFF,
JOHN NOLL, of Bellefonte.
FOR TREASURER,
JAMES KIMPOET, of Harris township.
FUR REGISTER,
JOHN A. RUPP, of College tow nship.
FOR RECORDER,
W\ GALEK MORRISON, of Worth tw p.
FOR COMMISSIONERS,
A. J. GRIEST, of Unionville,
M. S. FIEDLER, of Haines township.
FOR AUDITORS,
F. F. JAMISON, Gregg township.
H. A. McKEE, Spring township.
J. H. KEATTY, of lowa, is the suc
cessor of Oscar J. Ilartfey, the former,
as chief of division iu the treasury de
partment. Keatty is a former PONN
sylvanian.
THE prohibition state ticket is as
follows .• Dallas C. Irish, lor state
treasurer, John B. Chase, forjudge of
supreme court. Of course the ticket
of the third party it always subject to
sure defeat and this is about the last
we'll hear of it.
THAT great republican blusterer,
Gov. Foraker seems bound to make
political, and of course republican or
ganizations out of the G. A. R. posts.
His order at Wheeling, the other day
that the veterans must not pass in
parade under a portrait of President
C eveland.is unmistakable proof of his
mean partisan spirit. And strange
to say the order was obeyed by some
of tbe veterans, while the majority
were disgusted and indignant over
the conduct of Foraker.
THE answers received to inquiries
sent out by the Kansas City Times
through Kansas and Missouri as to
the presideßtal preferences show that
the west is practically settling down
to Cleveland and Blaine as the candi
dates in 1888. In Missouri 270 an
swers from democrats were received.
Of these 251 were for Cleveland, 3
for Thurman, 1 for Wade Hampton,
and the rest scattering. The republi
cans sent 261 answers, of which 125
were for Blaine. 77 for Sherman 41
for Lincoln, and tbe rest scattering.
In Kansas 326 democrats answered
as follows .• Cleveland, 306 ; Thur
man, 7 ; Hill, 6 ; tbe remainder scat
tering. Tbe republicans sent 302 an
swers, of which 181 were tor Blaine,
86 for Sherman, 44 for Lincoln, and
the rest scattering.
A LITTLE more than twe months
hence the Democrats of Centre county,
if they are so minded, will have a
chance to show their Republican
friends that tbe nominations made
last Tuesday was simply a matter of
form. In other words the success of
the Democratic ticket is beyond a
question of doubt, if the Democrats
see proper to organize thoroughly aod
form a solid front in November. And
we think tbe rank and file of tbe party
are fully awake to their duty and are
ready to go into the fight with tLe set
determination to win and win with
rousing majorities. This thing ot
"kicking" and knifing their own can
didates has proven too dangerous an
experiment to the Democratic party
in the past to indulge in k it again and
the mass of tho Democratic voters are
solid for their ticket for the sake of
party victory.
THE Democratic State Convention
assembled at Allentown yesterday
and on Tuesday already something
like a thousand strangers filled the
town. As far as candidates are con
cerned nothing can be said at this
writing, but it was apparent on Tues
day that everybody was most con
cerned about what the platform would
have to say. A dispatch to yester
day's Harrisburg Patriot reports as
follows :
ALLENTOWN, Aug., 30., 1.40 A. M.— The
temporary president of the eonvention will
be George A. Post, of Susquehanna county,
and the permanent chairman, S. It. Peale,
of Clinton.
At this writing it looks as if the tarift'
problem would be solved by the adoption of
a resolution declaring a reaffirmation of the
Chicago platform as interpreted by Presi
dent Cleveland in his last annual message,
which will he followed by quoting Singer
ly s resolution. This is regarded as a com
promise, but it is in reality the consumma
tion of the wishes of the tarriff reformers.
TIIE Republicans had their say on
last Tuesday when they assembled in
convention at Bcllcfoate to nominate
a full county ticket. Tbe following
are tbo nominees: Daniel Rhoads,
of Bellefonte, for Associate Judge ;
Robert Cook, Jr., of Howard town
ship, for Sheriff ; Cyrus Goss, of Fer
guson tow nship, for Treasurer ; T. C.
Gram ley, of Miles township, for Reg
ister ; J. F. Harter, of MiUheim, for
Recorder ; John I>. Decker, of Potter
township and J. C. Henderson, of
Huston township, for Commissioners.
A right good set of men, but uot one
jot better than the democratic nomi
nees and as they represent the minor
ity party in the county we aro sorry
to say that their doom is settled bo
fore band, with one exception—that
of tho candidates for commissioners.
One thing is remarkable in tbo nom
inations made. Tho convention took
very good care to throw a goodly a
mount of "taffy" on this side of the
mountain, likely for a bait for shnkv
Democrats. But tho bait will turn sour
before Jong and sensible Democrats
will never bite iu this campaign.
LAST week's Gazette, the radical re
publican organ of Bellefonte, comes
out with very attractive headings units
editorial page, set in ono-iuch type
and reading "Bugs !" "Lice I"
Under these interesting head-lines fol
lows the surprising statement that a
democratic grand jury in their repcrt
to tbe court vindicates the Keystone
Gazette iu its charges about misman
agement of the county jail. We au
nex that part of the report referring
to the jail and leave it to an intelli
geut reading public to find in said
report anything that might resemble
a bug or a louse. The bad condition
of the jail is blamed to tbe defective
water pipes, waut of ventilation, and
poor water closets, and as tbe sheriff
is unable to make any change or im
provements in the tho fixed architec
ture of the jail building we fail to see
why the Gazette insists in putting
the blame where it does not belong.
Tbe arrangement of thebuildingis any
thing but practical or healthful and
brother Fiedler would no doubt find
it as difficult to keep the jail clesn as
tbe officer upon whom he vents his
prejudice and ill will. If Fiedler thinks
that kind of political literature will
turn tbe county over to the Republi
can party, we predict a sad and last
ing disappointment for him. Read
the report of the grand jury and judge
for yourselves as to tho truth of the
Gazette's lies :
In the case of the county jail we find the
part occupied by the sheriff and his family,
together with the sheriff's office in good
condition, except in the hall under the hath
room, where the water has run through
from the bath room above and causing the
plastering to become loose.
\Ve also find a pile of filfth and rubbish
near the north-east corner of the jail yard,
which we thiuk should be at once removed.
Iu the part of the jail occupied by the
prisoners, we find some of the cells damp
and wet, appearing to have been caused
by defective water pipes ; and we find a
damp ami unwholesome smell pervading
the whole of that part of the building,
caused by the want of proper ventilation
and lack of attention.
The water closets in the different cells are,
we think, another cause of the condition of
the building and we would recommend the
removal of said closets.
And we also recommend that all the ver
min and filth be removed from the jail
building.
We therefore think that a proper water
closet should be erected for the use of the
jail with proper drainage pipes leading
from them to the general drainage pipes of
the borough.
We also recommend some suitable bath
rooms for tbe use of the prisoners.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
(From onr regular correspondent)
WASHINGTON, Aug. 29,1887.
It seems to me that the public land JH>H
cy of this Administration commends it to
the favor of tbe people far more than any
other measure it has adopted. There has
been no cessation in the great work of over
hauling the swindling manipulations of
hungry land-sharks, and the powerful rail
way corporations have also lieen made to
disgorge much of a free people's birth-right,
ruthlessly given away by Republican Ad
ministration. Under the swamp-land law,
passed by Congress in 1850, authority was
granted certain States, with public lands in
their borders, to drain and reclaim all
swamp and overflowed lands, preparing
them for purposes of agriculture; later, acts
were passed granting to tbe States with
sitcli lands and indemnity of $1.25 per acre
for eacli acre of swamp land sold by tbe
Government after the act of 1850 and up to
the date of the indemnity act of 1H55. Then
in 1857 Congress passed a law securing to
each- State the titles to such tracts as were
condemned by tbe several States as swamp
lauds. Now, so far as can be ascertained,
Louisiana is tbe only State that has made
any attempt to reclaim these lands, and
that was soon abandoned. You can at a
thought see what a vast flehl of fraud was
invitingly opened by the Government, full
advantage of which was taken by thous
ands of unscrupulous persons who falsely
swore away millions of acres of the most
fertile public lands, the settlers and the
United States land agents often making a
"combine" against the Government in their
nefarious work. As tho swamp law was
passed thirty-seven years ago, if the law
has been carried out in good faith, the
States would have long since reclaimed all
such lands; but still "swamp land claims"
are being almost daily r "nted. The
malacious attack made upon Commissioner
Sparks are solely due to bis efforts to check
and correct this gigantic swindle, for which
he is entitled to the highest praise.
Civil Service reform seems to be making
pretty fair progress under the new regula
tions requiring clerks in ofHce to be exam
ined. A few days ago the Civil Service
Commission received from the Secretary of
Navy a request for the certificates of 212
elegibles, all males, from which 53 selec
tions may be made to fill existing vacancies.
To supply this, tbe largest requisition ever
made on the Commission, at least four cer
tificates were made for each of the States
and Territories. The Civil Service Com
i liiissiouers are divided iu opinion in regard
to the power of disinlssil, Mr. Kdgertnn,
holding that the appointing authority haw
absolute power of dismissal, while his col
leagues contend that such |tow>r is restrict
ed by the Civil Service Law.
The Interstate Commerce Law seems to
lie steadily growing bi |>pulM favor. Sen
ator lltulcr of South (Carolina who op|M>sed
tin* measure, has IHHUI won over by his re
cent experience in a railroad collission, ami
in consequence, lio proposes to Introduce
amendments to tlio law, regulating the
speed of trains and limiting; tlu< time of
railroad employes to twelve hours consecu
tive service in a lav.
National Hank tri*M now holil a
larger MIIII of Government funds than ever
lie fore, tbe amount being $20,2.17,'J1M.
Over seven million ami a lialf trade-dol
lars have IHSMI redeemed to date, more than
half of whieli have lieen reroined luto dimes.
The testimony in seven eontested oleetlon
eases has lieen received ami printed by the
elerk of the House of Representatives,
whioh, 1 tiellere, is a much smaller niimlier
than usual.
At tbe last Cabinet uus-ting, for the tlrst.
time during this Administration, all the
mem Iters were absent, except Secretary
llayard, the other portfolios Wing repre
sented by Assistant Secretaries.
As it is regarded as practically settled
that President Cleveland will he renominat
ed, some interest is Wing manifested iu the
nomination for Vice-President, ami both
Postmaster-General Vilas and Commission
er ltluck have Ws>n often mentioned. Many
long-headed Democratic statesmen aud pol
iticians are understood to favor a soldier
for second place,ami it is probable the Pres
ident is of the same opinion.
A pair of good Republicans, one a claim
Attorney, and the other a Government
clerk, were arrested a few days since for
stealing public records from the Pension
Office. For such a crime the punishment
is tive years iu the peultentiary.

A Colored Child Lacerated by Rata.
READING, August27,—People iu the
□ortheru part of the city are terribly
excited over the report that a colored
baby was nearly devoured by large rats
during last night. At the residence of
the parents it was found that tbe
child's face was lacerated in a most
shocking manner. The blood oozed
from the whole face and neck and
trickled down over the disfigured face.
Physicians were quickly summoned,
but it is believed tbe child will die. A
trap was set to-day and a rat as large
as a good-sized kitten was caught
Many others equally as large,were seen.
His Hearing Restored by Prayer.
BLUE SPRINGS, Neb., Aug 28—The
Free Methodists have been holding a
campmeeting hero for some time, and
fifteen persons professed conversion.
Among them is J. J. Bently, who since
1863 had been deaf in one ear, and for
the past three years and up to the time
of the meeting totally deaf in both eats.
Night before last during an experience
meeting, he spoke of this as a thorn in
his flesh, and asked to bo prayed for.
All present knelt, and fervent prayers
were offered that he might be healed.
Suddenly, during the devotions, he
sprang to his feet shouting, "Glory to
God ! My heariog is restored ! " and
since that time he has been able to
hear perfectly.
A Novel Bet.
While I am not a better man, said

You see he was about dead,and I guess
he would of died before Spiing,if I had
not of got him on the bet. You know
some men had rather loose their life
than loose a hundred, well as he was
one of that kind,and we both came near
beii g out, but I saved my hundred and
it only cost him ten dollars. How's
that? He sent for me one day and said
tbe doctors had all given him up to die,
with the catarrh. I told him that 1
would bet him SIOO that Hall's Catarrh
Cure would cure him or I would give
him SIOO if it failed. He took the lat
ter proposition. This was three months
ago ; you see bow he looks now. don't

SHENANDOAH. Aug. 29.— Robert
Martin was killed, George Lawson fa

Draper colliery, Gilberton, this morn
ing. At the bottom of the slope is a
miner's supply house, where the men

ling a slick when a spark from his lamp
fell On the primed end exploded it,
blowing Martin into an unrecognizible
mass of flesh, which had to be gathered
into a box for transfer to his late home.
George Lawson had one leg and an arm
blown off, and was otherwise injured
so that death is only [a question of a

boot of his uninjured leg was a stick of
dualin that was not exploded. Lawson
has a wife and several children. Mar

The accident is one of the strangest

A Drill Six Feet Long Blown Through
a Miner's .Ilody.
W ILKESRARIIE, Pa., Aug. 2- At 10
o'clock this morning, Miner George
Eyere. a German, aged 50 years, and a
man of family met with a horrible
death in the Gay lord slope of the King
ston coal eompany, at Plymouth. He
was engaged at the time in tamping a
drill-hole in a breast of anthracite with
powder, prior to blasting. The pro
ceeding is always a dangerous one, and
great care is generally taken in the
work. The drill used by Eyere was six
feetloog and an inch and a half in di
ameter. While pounding the powder
vigorously it ignited by friction, and
caused a loud explosion. When the
neighboring miners ran to see what
bad caused the trouble they found
Eyere lying on his back, having been
blown some distance away, his diill
haying passed entirely through his
right breast, just under the shoulder.
He was de ad and covered with blood.
His body was sent to the surface and
carried to his grief-stricken family.
HISJSTRKNGTH IN TIIK SOUTH.
Senator liutlor Says There is Hut One
Sentiment in the South.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20.-Senator
Butler, of South Carolina, in speaking
of President Cleveland, said that his
renominaliou next year by the national
democratic convention is certain if the
president lives. "Why, there is but
one sentiment in the party," he cou
tinned, "and that is in support of the
presideut. The grumblers are to few
to amount to anything. The south is
Solid for Cleveland ai d he will be re
elected. In my opinion Blaine will be
the lepublican mominee and Cleveland
will defeat him again, if the present
general prosperity continues until the
next presidential election there Is no
telling what the vote for Cleveland will
be. Cleveland's great stlength lies in
the confidence the business inter
ests have in him. He is safe, conserv
ative and cautious. All masses of
business men.including farmers say that
he is a safe man at the head of the
government, and they will continue
him there, i was recently in a party
of northern capitalists, all republicans,
and though we did not talk politics,
they let fall complimentary remarks a
bout this administration. Now while
such men might not vote for him, they
perhaps would not vote against him.
Their expressions indicate a negative
force that would eouot at the polls,"
PLAGUK-MTKICKKN PLYMOUTH.
Another Kpldemlo Imminent In an
Unfortunate Luzerne Town.
WILKKBHAKUB. August 27. Two
new cases of fever are reported In the
town of Plymouth to-day, and the
greatest apprehension existj among the
seven thousand people of the borougt.
It Is feared that another epidemic Is n
bout to visit the place. Gross careless
ness Is charged against the authorities.
When the last victim of the great
epidemic of two.years ago, which caused
the death of tn*re than one hundred
persons, had been bulled, public opin
ion demanded that the town tie new- j
ered and other improvements made to
ward off oontaglous diseases In the ;
future; tut there was delay and with It
cams Indifference. A great many of
the well-to-do citizens were opposed to
any improvements which would result
iu the outlay of a large sum of money,
and the borough Council lefused to act
in harmony.
The outeome of all this carelessnes
and Indifference w.ta that the streets j
remained in the same lilthy condition, j
uo sewers were I uiit and stagnant
water was allowed to accumulate in the ;
many pond holes In and about the j
town. To cnp the climax three or four {
men engaged in the business of clean- ,
log cess-pools hauled the contents of j
vaults through the streets in broad
daylight. A number of lesidents of j
the town were shortly taken down with i
fever and the physicians of town have
now come to the coi.clusion that the !
disease originated and was transmitted
by the exposure of impure matter. The f
cess pools emptied have not been '
cleaned for four or five years.
Just where the present crisis wilt
end, no one is able to say.
Physicians interviewed say tbev ;
hope for the t*st. The Borough Council .
has ordered thu all the nuisances be a- !
bated at once, and that a general >
cleaning up throughout the town be I
inaugurated. Many believe that the
order comes too late. In order to make
doubly sure that the contents of the
vaults are not cxpoaed again, the Bur
gess lias ordered the digging of a long
tiench for the desposit ot such mate
rial.
Heretolore It was the custom of con
tractors to dump the contents of the
barrels on the Hate,one-half mile below i
thetown. The hot siid had the effect of
drying the raatei ial very fast and then ,
the wind carried the deadly seed iuto j
the town. Owen Jones, a member of
the Plymouth Band died last Monday .
of fever ; S. T. Claik, of Centre avenue |
died Wednesday night of the same dis
ease and waa buried to-day. Mary E.
Thomas died this morning. There are
manv other c tses beyond the hope of
recovery.
