FRIDAY, NOYKM HER I, 1S95.
Every Democrat should come out
to vote this year. His presence at
the polls will help to elect the whole
Democratic ticket.
Hon. Benjamin F. Meyers is known
to be an honest and a zealous public
official. Vote for him this year and
end fraud in the State 1 reasury.
Are you getting tired of having pub
lie office corrupted for the sake of
political barnacles ? If you are, vote
the straight Democratic ticket next
Tuesday.
The hope of real reform in Pennsyl
vania, Philadelphia and Pittsburg lies
in the success of the Democratic
party this year : vote the ticket and
assert your love of honest government,
The Republican papers say that
the Democrats in Pennsylvania are
conducting a " still hunt." The
Democrats have been anything but
still. It is the Republican party that
is keeping very still on the condition
of State affairs.
Every vote for the Democratic
ticket this year will be so much the
greater aid toward actual jeform in
Tennsylvania's present corrupt and
expensive government. Are you tired
of corruption ? Then vote the Demo
cratic ticket.
A vote for the Democratic candid
ates for Superior Judges means that a
superfluous and unnecessary Court,
originated by the Republicans in order
to get $70,000 of the people's money
every year, will be abolished. The
Republicans do not care for keeping
up any office that is not in their own
grasp.
Next Tuesday is election day and
nothing done by Senator Andrews'
Legislative Committee to investigate
corruption in Philadelphia. Voters
who believe in honest government
should remember this on election day
and show Mr. Quay that his idea of
reform is not the kind the people
want.
United States Senator Quay is ac
tively pushing his boom for Republi
can National Chairman. He lets no
chance go by to keep the name of
Matthew Stanly Quay before the peo
ple, aud, as usual, is ready to sacrifice
all others to attain this end. His
champion is the Philadelphia In
quirer, and while that paper does not
publish one editorial in favor of the
Republican atate ticket it gives col
umns to Quay and his schemes. His
latest scheme was promulgated from
Washington in the form of an inter
view, in which he explodes a plan to
raise $40,000,000 by increasing the
import duties on woolen and other
goods. He says he will do great
things in the way of harbor improve
ments, etc., if the tariff is increased.
He is another instance of " the peo
ple b d," for he wants to increase
the duties on woolens and increase the
cost of goods to our people. It is a
great play for increased popularity,
but it will hardly work, as the people
are satisfied to pay low prices for good
clothing, and will not willingly return
to high prices and low wages.
In his speech in Philadelphia last
Saturday, our candidate for State
Treasurer, Hon, B. F. Meyers, said:
"The rapid return of the country to
prosperous conditions promises suffi
cient revenues. At any rate an elec
tion at which only a State Treasurer
and seven Judges of a superfluous
Court are to be chosen, can hardly be
expected to determine the question
whether or not a revision of the tariff
should be had. True it is that the
changes are being rung on this ques
tion by our political adversaries.
Even the transcendent splendor of
Senator Quay's civil service reform
program is not permitted to dazzle the
eyes of the Republicn saints, so as to
blind them to the great importance of
saving McKinleyism by the election
of a machine-made candidate for State
Treasurer. Nay, the unspeakable
virtues of the Senate Lexow Commit
tee, whose grand and glorious purpose
seems to be to get such imformation
for the use of the next Legislature as
will have the effect of deterring that
body from chaining the name of this
city to Martinsburg, is postponed un
til after election, lest, indeed, the cal
cium light which is to flash upon the
precincts of the City of Brotherly Love
might so affect the optics of the regu
lation Republican voter that he would
get his cross-mark in the wrong col
umn for State Treasurer on the Aus
tralian ballot."
Next year is, the tini to talk about
the President and the tariff rfhd
money questions. To d.iy is the
time to consider the way the Slate has
been robbed by the Republican party.
Republicans are trying to hide their
frauds behind the tariff question, but
the corruption of State officials has
come to the surface, and will stay
there without the aid of an alleged
" I,exow investigating committee.
MRS. DAVID A0HENJ3A0H DEAD.
Mrs. David Achenbach, who resid
ed near Orangeville, died at her resi
dence last Thursday aged eighty-two
years, seven months and twenty-four
days. The funeral was held at the
Union Church at Orangeville Tuesday
at 11 o'clock She left to survive her
children as follows: A. C. Ilagen
buch of Orangeville, Oscar Hagen
buch of Wilhamsport, Sophia inter
married with II. L. Murray of
Wilhamsport, Rebecca J., inter-married
with M. M. Megargell of Orange
ville, Anna and William also residing
at the above named placed. Harriet
E., Calvin, and John J., also children
of said deceased died several years
ago. Her death was the result of
paralysis.
The children desire in this public
manner desire to return thanks to the
friends who so kindly assisted them
during her illness.
LOOK OUT TOR HIM.
A few days since a man came to
the boarding house of Mrs. Blosser on
East Street, and engaged boarding
He remained there several days wait
ing, as he said, for his trunk to come
from Danville. lie left the house os
tensibly for the purpose of looking up
a drayman, but not returning in due
time, investigation proved that he had
left the town, not only beating her out
of her board bill, but stealing several
articles of jewelry, as well as a pair
of trousers belonging to one of her
boarders.
TO BE ENLARGED.
In accordance with the recommend
ations of several Grand Juries, the
vault in the Register and Recorder's
office is being enlarged. In order to
do this, it was necessary to remove
the water closets in the rear of the
Court House. They will accordingly
be moved to the cellar under the
Commissioners office. The cellar
wall have been cemented, and a cem
ent floor laid, so as to be able to
thoroughly flush and cleanse it daily,
They will be supplied with the very
latest appliances which are conducive
to health.
GOT THE WRONG MAN.
Elijah Shutt, of this place, received
a circular letter a few days since from
M. S. Quay, chairman of the Repub
lican State Committee, urging upon
him the necessity of not only voting
himself, but getting out the entire
Republican vote at the coming elec
tion. He is indignant over the receipt
of it, and says they have not enough
money to purchase his vote, Were
they to come this way Elijah says he
has something he would like to tell
them. Evidently they have got hold
ot the wrong man.

Now that we have started our
Weekly Chats, we foci free to ask:
Were you pleased with the item
of dress good3 we sent you last
week? Of course you were. The
quality was right and the price
we know was less than you paid
for the same grade of goods be
fore. You'll fin J everything yon
order from us fully up to that
standard. We have been in busi
ness' a long time and want to give
you better Dry Goods, better ser
vice, better prices, in fact the best
5f everything is at your command
here. Vy doing things a little
better than our neighbors wc have
:stablished a business larger than
all the rest. This is to your ad
vantage, for it is only by buying
!n great quantities we arc able to
control the markets and secure
the extra discounts allowed to the
big dealers.
The sharp air between night
and morning warns you to prepare
in time for the cold season. Now
and then we may still have a
pet day, but you shouldn't be
caught napping. We have selec
ted for you this week some of the
things we know you ought to
have; send for them now. You'll
thank us for the suggestion later.
California Blankets with delicate
pink blue and old gold borders,
soft and fleecy as down, the kind
you like to cuddle to on snappy
nights. These blankets arc of ex
tra weight and should sell at
$5.00 the pair. We will send you
a sample pair for $375.
Misses' All Wool Ribbed Hose,
all sizes, with fine Merino heels
and toes; they are extra length
and weight and are just the stock
ing for cold weather wear, you
will be surprised when you learn
the price. This week they will be
offered at the pair 19c.
Ladies' Extra Weight Wool
Vests and Drawers. Some call
them .all wool. We don't; thera
is just enough cotton to prevent
shrinking; they are natural grey,
silk bound, with woven ribcuft
and skirts. If ordered this week
you will save at least 25 cents on
the suits. They are genuine bar
gains at our price each garment

We are sole agents for the
Armorside Corset, the only corset
that never breaks down in the sides,
it is extra boned, which gives it
he Venus back shape. Unlike
most corsets the Armorside clings
:lose to the body, giving an easy,
graceful carriage and at the same
:ime is absolutely comfortable, no
matter whether stooping, standing
ar sitting. We will send your size
in white, drab or blue for $1.00.
Wc have built up a great Boy's
Clothing business by selling a suit
we call our Special at $1.98. We
have pleased 400 boys with these
suits this season and can please
your boy. It's an all wool Grey
Cassimere suit, double breasted,
square cut, stylish, durable. Try
Dne for sample wear ; the cost is a
trifle, but it will make for us other
customers, $1.98.

Mail Order Department you arc
represented by a clerk who gives
her undivided attention to filling
your order. Try it to-day. We
are sure the items named above
are needful and will give you good
