Somo say that the seventeen-year-old
locusts aro due this year and others say
they are not. An exchange In working an
item out of tho subject says : "More or
less superstition Is attached to the advent
of tho locust, and many put full confidence
In tho belief that the fate of the country for
the next seventeen years is decided by
whatever letter appears on tho locust's
wing. In proof of this they cite the fact in
1833, when they appeared in great abund
ance the letter 'W' could bo plainly seen on
their wing, which signified war. As war
followed iu a few years the superstitious
idea gained strength, and is vcrv generally
believed in throughout tho country. In
1872, tho next regular period for their ap.
pearance, it is claimed the letter 'I" could
be as distinctly seen as luc 'W' of seven,
teen years before. Peace and plenty fol
lowed their last appearance, which satisfies
tho credulous that the locust Is a true pro
phet. What letter will appear on their
wings this year has not yet been discovered,
but Iho country folks aro anxiously await

A New Swindle on Hie I'arnierrt.
Swin Hers have struck n new schemo for
beating tho unhappy granger who is in.
cllncd to mako money moro rapidly than

who wants to get rich r-ist that lays him
self open to tho wjlcs of such scoundrels as
this. A well dressed man calls at tho farm
houso and wants to buy a good horse. A
horse Is shown him; prices aro mndo and,
alter bantering, a bargain is struck, and
the buyer pays $10 down to secure tho
bargain and leaves to return In a week for
thu horse. Tho next day another well-
dressed nnd gentlemanly man calls and
takes a fancy to tho same horse. Tho
farmer cannot sell It because it Is sold, bu t

Ho offers $10, $15, or $25 abovo tho price

keep the animal to sell to No. 2, so ho of.

Editors Comimman i Tho following Is a
copy of n reply to tho Sentinel, to "Number
One,
Mr. Krlckhaum, you Insist on mo reply
ing to nn uncalled for article In last week's
Sentinel. 1 don't solicit a newspaper alter
cation with you howovor If you Insist on
one, your dcslro can bo gratified, provided
you publish all which will bo suitable for
only a paper of low standing liko the "Sen
tinel."
You aro trying to crcato public sympathy
in n suit pending between you and me,
about which you should have remained
silent until It is ended. You havo good
counsel to ably represent your sldo ot tho
case, but as you havo already opened It, It
is but just and proper that I represent tho
other side,
Plor to tho Brooks high license law, as
it is generally called, tho Clerk of tho Courts
advertised all applications for license In
nny two papers In tho county In which ho
Baw proper.
Two years ago I advertised In your pa-
pcrj theio wero 60 applications, for which
you charged mo $4.43 or 8 cents each,
paid you and hold your receipt for same.
signed over your own signature, which you
cannot deny by amdavlt nor "honest state
ment."
Under the Brooks law tho Court shall
designate In which two papers applications
shall bo advertised
Last year Tub Coldmiiian and "Sentinel"
were selected. The CoLUMnua's bill was
paid satisfactory to both parties. You
wanted twlco as much for tlio same work.
I refused to pay It. You sued mo ; 1 paid
tho costs, made you a legal tender for samo
amount 1 paid Coi.umiiiau, and when tho
Jiutlco decided that that was all you was
entitled to, you grew angry and remarked
that you could havo bought tho Justice If
you felt so disposed, which you know Is
untrue
When tho papers wero to bo selected for
tho present year, you stooped lower than
any other editor In tho county would havo
dnno to securo tho patronago ngntn, not for
tho emoluments so much as for an oppor
tunity to glut your vengeance on mo. After
tho Associate Judges agreed that you
should havo tho advertisement, you went
boastlngabiut howyou had stolen a march
on me. Tho "Republican" being selected
as tho other paper without solicitation, and
when its bill was presented, based upon
advertising County Statement, I cheerfully
paid it and am ready and willing to pay yon
tho same, but you want scveu dollars moro
than twlco ns much ; but to avoid another
suit, I offered you $10.00 moro than I paid
tho "Republican," making $50.00, not that
I loved or feared you, but to save trouble
and expens". You declined, sued mo asaln;
I pild tlio costs and look an appeal. Last
week you ruled It for arbitration; got angry
and mado a drive at mo In your paper,
which you aro editing to abuso your enem
ies and reward your friends.
Two years ago when I controlled tho ad
vertising you charged mo eight cents apiece
tor each application; now you want osk
DOLL All TWENTY-FOUR AND TWO SEVENTH OF A
ckit, a difference of ono dollar sixteen and
two seventh of a cent. How Is this for
trtmmlngr" Mr. Hoffman, Clerk of tho
Courts of Montour county, which is In this
Judicial District, governed by tho samo
rules of Court and presided over bv tho
'imo President Judge, paid twenty-five
cjnts this year, and you want within flvo
suventh of a cent ono dollar more, making
a difference of nearly seventy dollars on
seventy applications.
You say you made your charge according
to your rates. You havo no regular rates ;
never had any. You charge one person
ono prlco and another, another. For in
stance, executors' and administrators' no
ticcs, In some estates you charge two dol
lars, In others, for the same kind and
amount of work, three dollars j although
you said in your paper you charged only
two dollars, so as to take advantage of oth
er papers. Ploaso oxplain why you did
this ; and In a libel for divorce other papers
charge three dollars and you charged six
dollars. How Is this for "trimmings?"
You claim. a largo circulation; somo you
charge ono dollar for subscription, others
less, and thoso who do your political bid
ding, nothing. You aro a policy rain; tor
example, how much did you sabscrlbo to
ward Johnstown sufferers? and how much
did you pay for that barrel of whiskey you
placed la the jail to run a campaign?
You aro again quibbling about fees.
When you was Prothonotary you accepted
all the fee-bill allowed- Slnco you went
out ot offlco tho toe-bill of 1878, which you
served under, has been declared unconsti
tutional and tho 1803 fee-bill the legal one,
which averages about 40 per cent, more
than former ono. I know of no county
otllcer in tho State, except myself, who
doe3 not servo under tho latter. Yet you
abuse and try to misrepresent me. You
say I chargo ono dollar aad seventy-five
cent for a rovival. Didn't you charge the
same? Uader tho present legal feo-bill
could chargo two dollars and fltty cents, as
they aro doing in Luzerno and Schuylkill
counties, and iu Lycoming county tho feo
for a judgment is ono dollar and sixty.flvo
cents. I charge one dollar and twonty.flvo
cents for samo. What reason havo vou to
howl at mo? And In rogfrd to "bonnet
and trimmings" In tho Sessions, I charge
three dollars and sixty cents and you flyo
dollars and eighty-flvo cents. Uow is this
for "trimmings?" I also find In the Ses
slons where you collected your feo from

was three dollars, and afterward the costs

you paying them over you shoved them
down your trouser-leg and walked out of

No. 3. What 1 say I can provo from the
