DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET.
For Prathonotary.—~W, ¥F. SMITH,
of Penn Twp.
For District Attornsy.—W. J. SINGER,
of Bellefonte
Hopeful Sigms for the Democrats of
Centre.
That the Democrats of this county
have reason $0 be hopeful of success at
the polis vext month, was evidenced
by the large and enthusiastic meeting
of the édunty committee on Saturday
last, and] the reports made of the sit.
nation w the different districte. In
twenty-years there has not been as full
an attendance at a committee meeting
and never, that we remember of, were
the reports submitted as universally
encouraging. Of the fifty:two districts
in theoounty bat five failed to have
representatives present, and of them
three sent reports and reasons why it
was impossible for the commitiee-men
to be present.
From every district the assurance
was given that the party is thoreugh-
lv united, that the state and county
tickets are entirely satisfactory, -that
every effort would be made to get out
the full vote and that numbers of the
party who last fall assisted the Eepub-
licans to carry the county are now
warmly interested in placing it again
in the Democratic column.
The reports further show that
«cores of honest Republicans, who see
the great benefit the country at large
s deriving from the effects of Demo-
cratic rule, and who are disgusted
with the extravagances and factional
.ights of the Republican leaders, have
determined to vote with the Democra-
cy this fall as a rebuke to the profli-
gacy and corruption that characterized
their state administration at Harris
burg last winter.
It is well for tbe Democrats to
know and be eacouraged by these
facts. They show the situation as it is
and the prospects of success on the
6th of November. But encouraging
as these reports and the signs of the
times are, we must all remember that
it will take work to realize the victory
that is now promised.
It matters not kow much harmony
there is in the party, how great the de-
zire to regain lost ground, how good
the feeling may be among Democrats,
if the Democratic wate is not gotten to the
oils, these count for nothing.
Scores of Republicans may, as we
believe they will, vote with us this fall
but how will that kelp us if the Pemo-
crate are not aroused and brought <o
the polls.
‘It is for the Democratic people to re:
member that the county committee-
men cannot do this work themselves.
They must be aided and encouraged.
Every Democrat can do some work
and.every Democrat should do what
he-oan.
It is to the interest of the tax-payers
that the county should be Democratic.
It is to the honor of the people regard:
less of party that the profligacy, the
corruption, the venality, and the sub-
serviency to corporate influences of the
administration at Harrisburg last win-
ter-should be rebuked and to secure
this every good citizen should lend his
aid to ‘the county committee-men in
their effonts to poll the fullest Demo-
cratic vote ever cast in the.county.
[Pemocrats, we speak to you honest-
ly. The times are ripe for,-and every
thiag promises a Democratic victory
on the 5th of November. Do not let
the opportunity pase. Let us show
that we deserve victory by working for
it. There is no reason why this coun-
ty should not give 800 Demeccratic
majority three weeks from next Tues-
day.
You can make it that by getting out
the vote.

Governor Clarke Determined.
He Says He Will Not Allow Prize Fighting in
the State of Arkansas.
LirrLe Rock, Ark, Oct. 14.—The
United Press correspondent found the
governor this morning thoroughly de-
termined to prevent the prize fight at
all hazards. He says that the action
of the circuit judge and the sheriff of
Garland county now makes it a matter
of state concern and renders him pri-
marily responsible for its supptession.
He is still hopeful that those in charge
of the prize fighting enterprise will
abandon all further attempt to bring
it about there. If, however, this does
not prove the case, their efforts can
only be interpreted to mean that they
intend to resist with force the efforts of
the officers to prevent it.
In this aspect of affairs the prize
fight will drcp out of view and the
contest will be one between the power
of the state and that of the invading
forces of the prize fighting contingent,
The governor has ro doubt of the re.
sult ot a conflict between these. That
the authority and dignity of the state
will be maintained goes without say-
ing. If this should not prove to be
the case and the prize fight take place,
in spite of the efforts of the officers and
the people, the governor says he will
resign hie office and in future leave the
enforcement of the laws and the resis:
tance to invasion to more competent
hands.
WILL FIGHT IN MEXICO.
Er Paso, Tex., Oct. 14.—A report
from the City ot Mexico, received here
this morning, says that President Diaz
has stated that the Corbett-Fitzsim-
mons fight on the borderis a matter
for the state government to manage
-and, therefore, he has left it with the
governor, Ahumada, of Chihuahua.
It is regarded here as settled that the
fight will come off at Juarez. The
town is greatly excited.

A considerable reduction has been
made in the amount of money allowed
to each local manager below that of last
year. This has been mude necessary be-
cause of the reduced appropriation by
the. Legislature, and partly by the
change of plan whereby the department
will furnish three and possibly four in-
stitute workers to each institute free of
expenses to the Jocal manager. This
aid is expected to much more than com-
pensate for any loss occasioned by the
reduced amount of cash the local mana-
ger will: receive and will tend to
strengthen the work in important par-
ticulars.

A Bmall Fire.
ATLANTA, Ga., October 15.— There
was considerable excitement on the
midway at the exposition grounds this
morning, occasioned by a fire which
started in thee building occupied by the
Old Negro Plantation, one of the con-
cessions on the midway, and which
goon caught on to the uncompleted
arena of the Hagenbeck show. That
building was entirely destroyed, but a
considerable portion of the plantation
building was saved. The buildings
burned rapidly and for a while on ac-
count of the west wind blowing, it was
feared the whole midway was doomed.
The firemen, however, succeeded in
getting it under control, and soon had
it extinguished.

Before and After.
From the Louisville Courier-Jouznal
The Pennsylvania Republicans at-
tribute the prosperity of the country to
the new tariff law, but say it is be-
cauee it was amended in the senate.
Less than a year ago they said it was
a free trade tariff. This illustrates
the difference between ‘‘before and af-
ter taking.’

Corea’s Queen is Dead.
The Body of the Murdered Woman Has Bfn
Found.
YorkoHAMA, Oct. 16.—A dispatch re-
ceived here from Seoul says that the
body of the murdered queen of Corea
has been found.
NEW YORK, Oct. 16.—A special cable
dispatch to the Herald from St. Pet-
ersburg, says:
It is said that Prince Lobanoff will
return here at once, in consequence of
recent events in Corea. The opinion is
expressed in government circles that
unwelcome reforms imposed by Japan
upon the Corean government are the
sources of all the trouble.
It is thought that the powers already
allied for intervention between China
and Japan should take over Corean af-
fairs from the Japanese. Prince Loban-
off’s absence, however, leaves much in
doubt.
SAN Francisco, Oct. 16.—Advices
by mail from Tokio, Japan, dated Sep-
tember 27, state that Japan has been
forced to comply with Russia’s demand
for a speedy withdrawal of the Japanese
troops from Liao Tung. France and
Germany joined in the demand, and the
Japanese government was in no position
to defy three European powers. The
announcement of Russia’s purpose took
Japan by surprise. This proceeding
has caused renewed bitterness in Japan
against Europeans. The Japanese also
charge their own_minister with conniv-
ing at the nation’s dishonor. *

Miners of Central and Northern Pennsylvania
Want an Advance.
CLEARFIELD, Pa., Oct. 16.—The dele-
gates representing the 20,000 semi-
bituminous coal miners of central and
northern Pennsylvania in convention
here to-day voted to strike on Satur-
day, October 19, for the 5 cents per ton
advance asked for at the Philipsburg
convention October 2. The vote was
108 for suspension of work to 63
against. A circular was at once issued

a general suspension of work on the
day named unless the advance asked
for is granted.

lowing clauses : “Should the operators
refuse or fail to pay this advance on or
before November I, 1895; the demand
shall be increased to 10 cents per ton,
aod that no joint convention shall be
held, unless three or more operators
shall agree to attend the same, and no
resumption of work shall take place
until all resume.”
PrivLipssure, Pa., Oct 16.—The ac-
tion of the miners of Clearfield in de-
ciding to call a strike throughout

granted an advance, operators here
say, will not be obeyed at many of the
mines along the Beech Creek railroad.
