Tre REPUBLICAN CoUNTY NOMINA-
rioxs.—The Republican] County Con-
vention met in the Court House in this
place at 1 o’clok p. m., on Wednesday,
and was fairly well attended, with a few
of the districts unrepresented. It was
called to order by Chairman Brown, and
the organmzation was effected by Mr. J.
B. Childs, of Philipsburg, being elected
President, with W. F. Reeder, Esq., of
Bellefonte, as reading clerk, and Oscar
Miles,of Milesburg,and J. H. Barton, of
Unionville, as Secretaries.
The first nomination made was for As-
sociate Judge. The names offered for
nomination were Wm. Thompson, of
College township; A. B. Rishel, of Col-
lege; Geo. Dale, of College; Wm. J.
Thompson, of Potters Mills; Michael
M. Musser, of Harris. The number of
candidates clearly indicated that Repub-
lican aspirants had quite a desire for the
honors and emoluments of the Associate
Judgesiip. It is evident that the aim
of the party is to get entire control of the
judicial department in this county and
run things with a high hand to suit
themselves and the interest of their par”
ty. But if we are not greatly mistaken
the people will object to such an ar-
They have already felt the
injury of having some of the most im-
portant of the county offices filled by
Republicans, notably the Commissioners’
office where the control of the present in-
competent majority of the Board is in-
creasing the county debt and preparing
a future load of tax:tion for the tax-pay-
ers. The voters are certain not to make
the situation worse than it already is by
putting the court entirely under Repub-
lican control.
It took but one ballot to determine
the nomination of Associate Judge, as
follows :
‘Wm. Thompson, 7 votes ; A. B. Rish-
el, 4; Geo. Dale, 38; Wm. J. Thomp-
son, 5; Michael M. Musser, 61. The
nomination of Musser was then made
unanimous.
The nomination tor Prothonotary
was next in order, and but two names
were offered, Wilson J. Fleming, of
Bellefonte, and Guyer Mattern, of Pat-
ton township. The ballot stood 80 for
Fleming and 36 for Mattern.
So easy a victory for the Bellefonte
candidate, with so large a majority on
the first and only ballot, was quite a sur-
prise to the uninitiated who had not been
allowed to get behind the scenes, but it
was tuken as a matter of course by those
who understood that Mr. Fleming was
the man that had been selected by the
ring of politicians who manipulate the
Republican movements in Centre coun-
ty. Personally Mr. Fleming is an un-
objectionable man, but he will be ob-
jectionable to a large majority of the vo-
tess as a ring candidate. The objection
will be strengthened by his being putup
against Mr. Schaffer who is universally
acknowledged to be one of the most of-
ficient and accommodating incumbents
that ever occuped the Prothonotary’s of-
fice. As the opponent of so good and
popular an officer as the Democratic
nominee unquestionably is, Fleming’s
political goose may be considered as al-
ready cooked.
The convention next took up the
nomination for District Attorney. There
being no opposition to him, Wm. E.
Gray, Esq., of Bellefonte,was nominated
by acclamation. Mr. Gray is a nice
young man and means well, and would
certainly like to do the State’s prosecu-
ting in this county for the next three
years for such emoluments as may be in
the job, but the voters are not prepared
to discharge the present experienced and
efficient prosecuting attorney for a green
hand at the business. Mr. Meyer hag
proved himself an excellent man for the
official position he now holds and in
which the people are going to keep him
for three years more. He has just ef-
fected a reform in getting the grand ju-
ries to work immediately upon the open-
ing of court, which not only facilitates
the transaction of business, but saves
about $500 each term in the ordinary ex-
pense of running the court. Tt will be
the part of wise voters to extend his op-
portunity of bringing aboutsuch reforms.
After his nomination Mr. Gray was
called on for a speech and spoke his
piece very nicely. He made a good
wany speeches in the campaign last year,
and those who heard him will remember
that he said a great deal about the bless-
ing that a high tariff was to the working
people, and how they would secure
plenty of work and good wages if they
would only elect Harrison and maintain
the tariff. It would be a good joke on
candidate Gray if those to whom he will
apply for votes this year should ask him
whether those tariff benefits he promised
last year are lying around loose where
they could get their hands on them, and
what has become of the two dollars a
day and roast beef which were to reward
workingmen for voting for Harrison
and the tariff?
Next in order the convention nominat-
ed a candidate tor County Surveyor, the
contestants being Jesse Cleaver, of
Unionville, who got 63 votes, and P.
1. Pletcher, of Howard, for whom 52
votes were cast. The ticket was com-
pleted by the unanimous nomination of
Dr. J. W. Woods, of Harris, for Coro-
ner. Lawrence LL. Brown was re-elect-
ec county chairman for the year 1800.

The Baptist Convention, which convened in
this place, was one of the most successful
gatherings of its kind everheld in Philipsburg.
The convention lasted¥three days and about
two hundred delegates from other towns were
present. It will convene at Tyrone next year.
The lawn festival, which was held at the
residence of D. S. Rumbarger, on Saturdary
night by the ladies of the Presbyterian church,
was the most successful ever held by them.
They took in almost one hundred dollars, and
their expenses were only three dollars and a
few cents.
Mr. Ritchey, the new Prineipal of our schools,
has arrived in town, and is getting things in
readiness for the opening of the school on
next Monday morning. He is a fine young
man, has the necessary pushing qualifications,
and will no doubt make an efficient, capable
and energetic Principal.
Col. E. E. Hagerty, one of our most prosper-
ous bakers, has purchased of the Philipsburg
Coal & Land Co., the lot on northeast corner of
4th and Pine street, for six hundred dollars,
and broke ground Monday for the erection of a
fifteen hundred dwelling. We are assured
that it will be an ornament to that locality.
A report is going the rounds, and one which
we believe is the truth, that a dry goods clerk
and one of our mostjexcellent’young ladies, are
about to become man and wife, and the invita-
tions are expected to be distributed in a coup-
le of weeks. It will be a huge wedding when
it comes off. Look out for it.
A sparring match for points, between Wili-
iam Simler, of Philipsburg, and Ed. Curie, of
England, will take place at the Driving Park,
in this place, on Thursday, October 10th, for
one hundred dollars a side. Six rounds will
be fought, Marquis Queensburg rules, with
eight ounce gloves. We'll betour last nickel
on our Bill, for he’s an old timed slugger.
He'll “knock the bloody ell” outof the Eng-
lishman without any over exertion.
The coal trade in the Philipsburg district,
which promised a couple of weeks ago to be-
come more active, has again taken a down-
ward tendency, and fallen into the same old
dull rut of a couple of months ago. The cause
is attributed by the operators to the scarcity of
cars on both the Pennsylvanta and Beech
Creek railroads, but whether this is true
your correspondent does not know; at any rate
the coal business is not what it really should be
at this time of the year, as September is usual
lyalively month for the coal business. Nevy-
er has their existed a more friendly relation
between the operator and the miner than
there is at present in the Philipsburg distriets
the miner appearing to be satisfied with
the price he receives for the digging of coal,
and were cars plentiful, we have no doubt,
whatever, but what everything would move off
pleasantly and satisfactorily between the em-
ployer and employee. This thing of not hav-
ing steady work is where the principol troub-
le arises, and if they had work all the time,
the miner could get along splendidly, but
when he cannot procure more than three to
four days of work out of a week, there is cer-
tainly some excuse for kicking. A man with
a family of from five to eight children cannot
possibly live on the amount of money he de-
rives from three or _four days work out of a
week. And indeed, at times a great many
men are really fortunate if they get that many
whole days of work out of a week. One man
with a family of six smallchildren, working atja
bank in the near vicinity of this place, tells us
that last week he put in just two days and
three quarters. Is it any wonder that that
man feels like crying dull times," and that he
is getting deeper and deeper in debt with his
store account. He and his fami y must live,
but to live on two and three quarters of days
work a week, and not run in debt for the nec”
essities of life, we say it is an utter impossibili-
ty. The only remedy then is for a competing
line of railway to enter this region and furnish
the smaller operator with what number of cars
he wants. Suppose we take an operator who
is interested toa certain extent in either
the Pennsylvania or Beech Creek Railroad,
does he get all the cars necesary for the ful-
fillment of his orders? Through curiosity sup
pose you take a stroll out to those banks whose
i owners are interested in the railroads of this
! region, and you will see immense strings of
| cars standing on the siding for a couple of days
!at a time, while at other banks the sidings
| may possibly have one or two loaded cars wait-
| ing foran engine to take them away. And
! thus the world moves, and the miner must go
with it if he and his family does starve with it.
The College Dude.
| The Columbia-Cornell boat race,with
its most extraordinary termination,
ought to afford food for reflection to
the serious-minded parents of young
men all over this land. For a long
time the humorous departments of the
daily press have been paying more or
less attention to what is cailed the
“dude,” a seemingly new species of hu.
manity of recent discovery in this coun-
try
The “dude,” as a distinct and easily
distinguishable ty pe, has been a familiar
object to the people of the larger cities,
but there are thousands of people who
know nothing of the creature save what
| they have learned regarding him in the
newspapers, and there are thousands
i
who doubt his existence or who believe
‘that the portraitures which they have
| seen of him in the comic prints have
' been greatly exaggerated.
| The dude is represented to be a young
| thing who is just strong enough to suck
i the 1vory head of a walking cane; who
| wears a corset: who has on embroidery
underwear ; who lives to dresss; who
uses perfumery: who has a drawing
ing, school-girlish voice, and who
| strikes effeminate attitudes—in a word,
| a male creature, but not a man,
! The ‘dude’ is to some extent the
"latter-day product of the colleges. He
| has been traced back, beyond a possi-
! bility of doubt, to Cambridge and New
| Haven. From Harvard and Yale he has
| spread to Cornell, Columbia, Williams,
Aun Arbor, and institutions of lesser
note.
| In the recent boating contest six of
{ the Columbia students fainted. Wheth-
ler they had been indulging too heavily
lin vinegar, taken for the purpose of
| producing an interesting pallor, or
| whether they had laced too tight be-
fore embarking, is not known ; but that
the frail young things were notin con-
dition to undertake a manly exercise is
evident by the result. Heretofore the
“dudes” at the colleges have been in
the minority. They must be increas
ing numerically at Columbia, or six of
them could not have worked their way
into the boat club.
If the young man of the future is go-
ing to faint when he indulges in a little
muscular exercise we will have to look
to Vassar for our athletes hereafter.
Can Afford to Sit Still.
The New York Herald,one of the
ablest papers in the country, says:
The Democratic leaders can afford to
sit still while the country slowly drifts
in their direction.
The people made a mistake last au-
tumn when they voted for a Republican
policy, and are beginning to see it.
As to Mr. Harrison, he represents pol-
icies, however, which he is bound to
carry out. He willundoubtedly be true
to his convictions, and there is the dan-
ger, for the more he insists in carry'ng
out those convictions the worse it will
be for the country. ; ;
Hamilton, the father of the Republi-
can party, was an aristocrat. He had no
sympathy with the governing masses,
always distrusted then and perferred a
monarchy to a republic. He had very
littl faith in the perpetuity of Ameri-
can institutions, because he despised
what are known as “the people.”
He felt that the moneyed class should
be the ruling class and that the masses
ought to be kept in the background. -
Mr. Harrison's party has inherited
that conviction and represents it at this
momeht.
Under the rule of that party the rich
continually grow richer and the poor
continually poorer.
Its policy is, therefore, a political blun-
der, and in its last results will become a
political crime.
It consistently throws its influence in
favor of ths monopolist and is thenatural
parent of the combine.
While it continues syndicates flourizh
like a green bay tree and the working-
men will be ruthlessly sacrificed.
‘What it calls protection is simply a
protection of a few, while the mary are
driven to strikes in order to obtain wa-
ges above the starvation point.
The word ‘protection’ has an allur-
ing sound ; the thing it really stands for
is damnable.
The mill owners of Connecticut and
Massachusetts were hoodwinked last au-
tumn. They were told if the protective
tariff were taken off their raw materials
they would be ruined. They therefore
voted for the republican policy, and
went to sleep with the feeling that they
had done a public service.
They now see that unless they get
their raw materials free of duty they will
soon have to close their works and lose
what little they have made.
A very great change in this respect
has taken place within a few
months. Eastern manufacturers are in
the dumps; they voted for the sword
which cut their own throats, unless they
jam it back in its sheath. They now de-
mand a very material reduction of tar-
itt duties. It is a matter of life and
death with them.
They couldn’t understand this last
year, but now their decaying business
has made it altogether too plain. They
ave penitent, but the p:nitence comes
too late.
If they had re-established the Demo-
cratic policy of a lower tariff their busi-
ness would now be booming. They want
a large market for their products. If
they cou'd get access to the markets of
the world they would undersell all com-
petitors, and their mills might be run on
full time with profit to the owners and
workingmen alike.
But the Republican bosses won't ad-
mit this, and so the mill owners will
dodge bankruptey if they can, and the
laborer must keep from starving if pos-
sible.
Itis not Mr. Harrison's fault. He is
a good man with a bad theory; that is
all.
The Democrats have been sneered at
by party workers because the last cam-
paign was an ‘“‘educational’” one, in
which the Democratic party was knock-
ed out.
All right. Mr. Harrison's four years
will also be educational, and when they
end the people will refuse to be the cat's
paws of monopolists any longer. Then
the Republican party, with its protec-
tive humbuggery, will be sent flying.
The people are learning their lesson
very rapidly.

The Judge and the Granger.
They Have a Friendly Conversation at

Northumberland County Democrat.
Hon. Victor Piolett, of Wysox, Brad-
ford county, was in this city on Monday
on his way to attend the Grangers’ pic-
nic at Williams’ Grove. He has always
attended the picnics and all the Dem-
ocratic State Conventions. While stand-
ing at the railroad station Judge Buch-
er, of Lewisburg, came along and shook
hands with the old granger and compli-
mented him on his good looks and how
easily he was bearing his years. After
a few bantering remarks the Judge
said : ’
Piolett, at a State Convention over
twenty years ago, 1 remember you told
me how David Wilmot had goneto bed
one night up in Bradford county, and
when he awoke in the morning he said
the great Democratic party had left him,
and that they all turned over in the
night, and that he was right, while the
entire party was wrong. The way you
acted last fall put me greatly in mind of
your old story about Wilmot.” (It will
be remembered that Piolett refused to
support Cleveland last fall on account
of his stand on the question of protec-
tion.)
“I tell you, Judge, I did not leavethe
party,’ said the old granger, “they left
me and went after strange gods. I help-
ed to beat Cleveland and I would do it
again.”
“That is just what you told me about
Wilmot; you used to swear about
him for the same thing,” answered the
Judge.
“You are a better Judge than you are
a politician,” was the old gentleman's
last remark as he hurried away to catch
the train,
A Lying Renegade.
The novelist of the French Creoles,
Mr. George W. Cable, in a recent deliv-
erance at Chautauqua censured the
south “for refusing to educate its colored
population.” The New Orleans Times-
Democrat calls a halt on Mr. Cable, and
declares that “a section which, impover-
ished as it is, has given $37,000,000 forthe
education of its negroes, can'scarcely be
regarded as refusing them education.
The Times-Democrat prints a table of
the amount given in proportion to each
$100 of property, showing that
the South has been even more liberal
than New England and the Middlestates.
It appears from this table that Mississip-
pi has given proportionately more than
any other state in the Union; that
Missouri, West Virginia, and Arkansas
follow next in the order named ; Ohio
comes next, and then Connecticut, with
an amount the same as the average of
the entire South. The averag> for the
New England states is higher than that
of the Middle states, Pennsylvania be-
ing credited with the smallest school con-
tribution in proportion to wealth of any
state in the list.
