While X was in the drug store Of Mrs. M. A. Rockwell, I heard a stampede of a score or more, How many, I couldn't tell. 1 was sure it was a chariot race, And one of "tit for tat," But Mrs. Rockwell, with a smile on her face, Said, "the girls are killing a rat." It was just overhead you see. And nothing to break the sound, And that is why it seemed to nie So many were around. I really ne're could tell you, No matter how I might try, How the chairs and tables flew, And how those girls did fly. It made me think of a skating rink, And then of a falling wall, It surpassed what one might say or think, And I never could describe it all. I PERSONAL GOSSIP. Contributions invited. That which you would like to see in this department,li t us know by pos a card, or letter. personally. Ralph Fornwalt has returned to Em porium. Chas. Fry, of Port Allegany, is vis- j iting in town.

Notes and News. Jos. C. Sibley stands for William Mc- Kinley. Upon what platform does Mr. Emery stand? The people would like Mr. Emery to say for whom he intends to vote for President, MeKinley or Bryan. The PRESS notices in this week's is sue of the Independent that Mr. Em ery is opposed to President McKinley's foreign policy and will oppose the Re publican policy of expansion, or in other words is in favor of giving up the Philippine Islands, territory of which Uncle Sam bought and paid for. You would haul down the American flag, would you? Of course you would. The Independent scribbler feels awful bad about "Sibley's drips." Having tasted them to the fullness thereof, his mouth waters for just one more taste. Don't worry, Mr. Emery too well knows how you expended (?) that same "molasses" two years ago to trust your gang. Narry a cent will you handle, only just enough to lead you on—a taste, "{is it were." No "division and silence" in this game. Mr. Emery: If elected to Congress will you vote with the Republicans up on organization of the House or with the democrats? Did you or did you not pledge yourself to the democratic congressional delegates to vote with the democratic party upon organization of Congress? Will you or will you not vote for the election of a Republican speaker of Congress, upon whom de volves the duty of appointing the com mittees? If elected to Congress are you not pledged to "deal" with the democratic managers? Will Resume. Miss May Gould will return from her summer vacation next Monday and de sires to inform her music scholars that her lessons will resume Monday, Oct. Ist. A Smoker.

Serious Accident. Last Friday, Mr. J. J. Schwab, a highly respected farmer who resides near Cameron, met with a serious ac cident while driving home from Em porium. When near the Wiley basin his team became frightened at an ap proaching train and made an attempt to get away. Mr. Schwab was thrown from his wagon and dragged quite a distance, being severely bruised. The horses became detached from the wagon which was thrown down the steep em bankment and completely demolished. Mr. Schwab was conueyed to his home | through the kindness of Mrs. J. S. Wi- I ley. Dr. Smith reports the injured ■ man improving. Death's Doings. CREIGHTON. Michael Creighton, aged about 75 j years, died at the family residence in I this place, Friday morning, after an j illness of only a few weeks. Mr. Creigh ton has resided in Emporium for many [ years and was always a quiet, indus j trious and good citizen. We had been I intimately acquainted with the deceas j ed for many years and greatly esteemed j his friendship. Deceased leaves a wife j and three daughters, Miss Margaret at | home; Mrs. Thos. Mullen, Clarendon; Mrs. M. J. Byrnes, Mt. Alton, Pa., and ! a brother, Con. Creighton, of Falls Creek, Pa. The funeral was held Sun i day afternoon and was very largely , attended Interment was made in St. | Mark's cemetery. Is I lie Independent supporting Mr. | Emery for its health? Or, is the "bond : and bondage" contract in full force?

The Democratic county convention ;is 111 session as we goto press and will go through the form of nominating a ; ticket to be knocked down by the peo j pie Nov. 6th. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1900. (CONTINUED FROM FIRST PAGE.) the most trustworthy candidate, and a man that any voter can conscientiously support. When a man flops from one party to another and is at once given the nomination for the highest oflice obtainable at the time, there is some thing rotten in the deal, there is un lawful scheming on the face of it; there is a nigger in the woodpile. Elect Mr. Emery and you will have a man who will represent the district in an honest manner, and he is no demagogue." That wasunder the date of Sept. 12th. May I call your attention to a letter received by me, dated July 23rd of this j year, from the editor of the Weekly I (iazette, of Driftwood, Pa. It reads as i follows: MR. J. C. SIBLEY, Franklin, Pa.: Dear Sir: -The campaign is now on and the '27 th district promises to furnish a battle royal | ("or Congress. lam conducting a paper which J has since IS7O been run as a neutral paper. It j covers this end of the district in tine shape. What will you give for the exclusive use of the I Gazette during the fall campaign? Last fall I i rented two columns to each party at the rate of 20 cents per line, allowing me to remain neutral | hut as you are both Republicans I am willing to ■ throw my support to the one who can see the ] most in it. The paper is read by people of all i parties and should be the best paper in the i county to reach the voters. By securing the Gazette you will have the support of two of the three papers published in the county, and will ■ know that the money expended will be used in your behalf. It is said that not one-tenth of the ! iuoney spent here during the last campaign ever , went out of the hands of those who were todis- j tribute it. Hoping to hear from you soon Ire- j main, yours truly. JOS. S. JOHNSTON. I have not answerd this letter and I | shall never answer such letter. Now, what do you suppose I care ! when the JosephS. Johnstons publish I their denunciations ? (Great applause.) A GENEROUS OFFER. Now my friends, you have some j charitable organizations. You have your labor unions and your benevolent | associations formed for the purpose of | bringing great blessings to our com- i inon brotherhood. You shall not have to depend upon those who for \ such purposes publish such utterances j and stultify the common honesty that ; ought to pertain toman. Allow me to make this suggestion kindly. I sup pose the labor unions of the city of Bradford always have abundant means to help some worthy brother or some worthy cause. We shall lift politics out of the lower domain and bring it up where it can look into the face of honest manhood. I want you to help me to this joint discussion, therefore, I will make you this offer : The minute you bring me Mr. Emery's acceptance of my invitation I will contribute to your union SI,OOO in cash. If the la bor unions cannot bring enough in fluence to bear on him, then let some of the other benevolent associations try it, and whoever first secures the acceptance will have the §I,OOO to dis pose of in the name of sweet charity and there will be no corruption in such use of money. (Applause.) A BOOMERANG. When Mr. Sibley was quoting the Driftwood Gazette's complimentary re marks concerning Mr. Emery and his candidacy a party of Emeryites who had been "planted" ostensibly for the purpose of interrupting Mr.Sibley and humiliating him, set up a howl of ap plause which they kept up for some time. Mr. Sibley smiled and said, "Go on, boys, I would not give much for you if you did not applaud at the men tion of Mr. Emery's name. He is your fellow townsman; but you won't ap-j plaud when I get through with this." j Mr. Sibley read on, being frequently interrupted. When he laid down the clipping and began to read the letter which offered to sell out to Mr. Sibley the Emeryites were still as mice. They were the humiliated ones then, and Farmer Dean and others of the Emery rooters were not in a mood to howl. But the Republicans did the shouting then. It was their turn to yell and they did so with a will. Hon. I. K. Hockley, in last week's Independent, worries greatly because the editor of this journal consulted his own sweet will and declined to enter the field as a candidate for Member of Assembly. If the political prophet of Cameron county was so anxious for a "walk-over," as he expresses it, why did he show the white feather and re fuse to accept the nomination at the hands of his party when we entered the field as the nominee of the Repub lican party in 1894? You made such a gallant contest against Hon. J. C. John son and was entitled to and urged to accept the customary second term. If we are so easily "walked-over" you should not dare others to do that you have not the sand to do yourself. We are proud of the loyal support we re ceived from the non-purchasable peo ple of this county, especially in 1896 and 1898, and the past hits demon strated the fact that in spite of the wholesale debauchery of the voters we have kept vou exceedingly busy to "walk-over" us. We suppose our friend's fond desire for that senatorial nomination caused him to muse to himself, " I'll run away and live to fight (my friends) some other day." Our friend is not consistent in his ar gument. Try again. New Parsonage. It looks now as though the Wesleyan i Methodist parsonage in Rich Valley is to be something more than talk.

The Independent has much to say j about "pliable papers'' supporting Mr. Sibley. Every journal in the district that supported Hon. C. W. Stone, two years ago, to-day supports Mr. Sibley. The Independent should call off its fool contributors before the PRESS will be forced to ask some pointed questions. This nonsensical rot of impugning the mo tives of always reliable, consistent Repub lican papers may be democratic politics, I but it smells iottcn.
