STONE, of Allegany. For Lieutenant-Governor, J. P. S. GOBIN, of Lebanon. For Secretary of Internal Affairs. JOSEPH W. LATTA, of Philadelphia. For Judge of Superior Court, WILLIAM M. PORTER, of Phiadelpliia. WILLIAM O. PORTER, of Allegany. For Gongress-at-Large, GALUSIIA A. <;ROW, of Susquehanna, SAMUEL A. DAVENPORT, of Erie. For Representative in Congress, HON. CHARLES W. STONE, of Warren. For President Judge, B. W. GREEN, of Cameron, [Subject to the decision ofthe Republican District Convention.] Not Up to Date. The Democratic conferees ofthe 27tli Congressional district Wed nesday afternoon rolled a barrel into the campaign by giving Hon. Joseph C. Sibley a unanimous nomination for Congress. The decision of the conference is complimentary to Mr. Sibley and one that will commend itself from a Democratic point of view. But the action of the conference is not likely to give the Republicans of this district any concern. There not much likelihood that enough Republicans will repudiate their own ticket to elect the versa tile politician from Franklin, for there is not the least reason why they should. Personally Mr. Sibley is a genial gentleman, but he has had his day. As a poser he has been successful to <i certain extent, but these methods have done their best for Mr Sibley's ambition. Democrat, Populist. Prohibitionist and farmer, what character in politics can there be left for Mr. Sibley to assume? What issue the Democratic nom inee will bring into the campaign Is a matter of interest, for his old theories have been exploded and the people are weary of the diversion of rainbow chasing. lie is a politician and to say that he has been an oflice seeker is but the truth. What he could not get at home he has gone abroad to seek. In this he was successful in some degree, but it has not always been sanctioned by the people. If Mr. Sibley shall be able to per suade the people of the district that he is the man who ought to represent them in Congress hew ill be entitled to the honor, and will have accomplished great things. But the Republicans of the 27th district are satisfied with Hon. W. Stone. There will have to be some very weighty reasons given why he should be retired, especially at this time, if Mr. Sibley hopes to take Mr. Stone's place in the House. Mr. Sibley must have Republi can support to win the election. What great thing has he ever done that entitles him to the support of the Republicans in the four coun ties that comprise the district? What would he do to please the Republicans of the district, if sent to Washington ? He would an tagonize the administration, but this is not what the majority of the voters of the district would wish him to do. Mr. Sibley's political ideas are altogether out of sympathy with the principles of the Republican party. His advocacy of all sorts of issues and theories in the past will not strengthen him at this particular time. I)' he and his friend# arc relying on disaffection in Venango county they will cer tainly be disappointed in the result. The keynotes that Mr. Sibley lias sounded in the past will be found to l»e altogether out of har mony with the call of the times. The arguments with which he lured the multitudes in the days gone by have been riddled by the facts of history, made since. lion. Joseph Sibley is not tin man to represent the 27th district in Congress, lie is not up to date. —Warren Mirror. Prosperity Seen by Perkins. I li Perkins writes to the N. V. Sun that to see the standing crops of corn, wheat and hay in Illinois, lowa, Kansas. Missouri, Nebraska and Colorado seems like a dream. 1 have passed through all these States, which are the graincries of the Nation, within :s<> hours. In '.to years 1 have not seen such crops —such indications of prosperity. Rains have been copious from Ohio to the Rocky mountains. lOven about Oreeley, in Colorado, irrigation has not been resorted to. Colorado wheat, corn and fruits are looking magnificent. The wheat is generally harvested in Colorado, Kansas and Texas, but reapers, looking like wabbling windmills, are revolving all over Nebraska. ''Crops good ?" 1 shouted to an old farmer who had just started four reapers into aoO acre wheat field away out at < >xford, west of Kearney. ''Good,'' he said. "Good? I should smile!'' and then his eyes, nose and mouth collapsed into a remernber-the-Maine grin. Then, as the train started off he screamed: "And we've got the hogs to eat the corn, too!'' Last year Nebraska had few hogs, and millions of bushels of old corn fill great bins around the rail road stations. Atone station there are 30 bins, each 200 feet long. There are no tramps in the West now, where any man can get 81.50 a day in the harvest field. Every little factory is going, too. I found a new knife and scissors factory in old Macon, Mo., and 100 Missour ians were each making 82 a day. All the potteries in New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana are at work, and the glass and tin fac | tones in Indiana are not able to (ill their orders. Great oil and gas fields are being worked in Kansas and Texas. Cotton looks superb all over the South, and lsti cotton factories in North Carolina and '.Mi in South Carolina are spinning it. With wonderful crops, a 8300,- 000,000 balance in our favor on our last year's foreign trade, and the army capturing enough terri tory to pay its own expenses, Am ericans should be happy. The Assistant Democrats. The so-called Business Men's League is to hold a meeting in this city next week and Jprepare togo into the campaign to the detriment of the Republican party. In some instances the League already has joined hands with the Democracy. Of course, the name Business Men's League is a misnomer. There are few business men left in it, and, in fact, there are very few business men who would care, after the experience they have had, to aid the fortunes of the Demo cratic party in any way. A move ment conducted solely for personal spite, personal revenge and per sonal aggrandisement can And very little sympathy in Pennsylvania. Great issues are opening ahead of us—issues that will deal with the development of our new possessions and the extension of commerce and trade. These are the questions that will occupy attention, not the frothings of disgruntled men who cannot be elected to office. If there are those who prefer to join hands with the Blankenburgs and Van Valkenbergs, by all means let them do so, but let them be honest about it, and not claim to be Republicans when they are doing their utmost to tear down the Republican party. If they won't take a hand in upholding the Republican party and the great issues ahead of it they cannot be considered as Republicans and they cannot hope to ap peal successfully to the Republi can party in the future. —Philadel- phia Inquirer. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, AUGUST 25, 1898. Paste This in Your Hat. An exchange well says: Fault-finding in not difficult. A dog thatw.lH hitched to a lawn mower once stopped pulling to bark at a man who was passing close to him. The boy who was guiding the mower said: " Don't mind the dog; he is just barking for an excnseto rest. It is easier to bark than pull a machine." It is easier to bark than to work. It is easier to criticise than to correct; to correct some one else than one's self. It is not uncommon for persons to stop in useful work to set others straight, and it does about as much good and is about as offensive as for a dog to stop pulling a mower to bark at a man who is passing. .Remarkable Rescue. Mrs. Michael Curtain, Plainfield, 111., makes the statement, that she caught cold, which settled on her lungs; she was treated for a month by her family physician, but grew worse. He told her she was a hopeless victim of con sumption and that no medicine could cure her. Her druggist suggested Dr. King's New Discovery for Consump tion, she bought a bottle and to her delight found herself benefitted from first dose. She continued its use and .after taking six bottles, found herself sound and well; now does her own housework and is as sound as she ever was. Free trial bottles of this Great Discovery at L. Taggart's drugstore. Large bottles 50 cents and §I.OO. A fund is being raised in Ireland in aid of the Healyite lambs who sit in Parliament. Robbed the Grave. A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver, of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated by him as follows: "I was in a most dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continu ally in back and sides, no appetite— gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had giveu me up. Fortunately, a friend advised trying Electric Bitters, and to my great joy and surprise, the first bottle made a decided improvement. I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life, and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them. Only 50 cents per bottle at L. Taggart's drug store. Better sleep can be obtained with a low than with a high pillow. Are you Troubled with Dyspepsia? If so. do not neglect until It la too late thl« opportunity of ridding yourself of this trou ble. Dr. Fonner's Dyspepsia Cure, as the name Implies. Is simply for Dyspepsia and Indigestion. This Is a preparation long and successfully used In private practice by one of America's best qualified pliyslciaiis, who Is an accepted authority on all medical ques tions. If not satisfied after using one bottle your money will be refunded by R. C. Dodson. EXCURSION NOTICES. Sunday Excursion to Portage Falls. The W. N. Y. & P.
