large Methodist church—thus does our)
town keep on improving steadily. Land;
adjoining town sells at SSOO to SIOOO per j
acre, and town-lots at from s2jo to SSOO j

asking too high for their ground, such '
prices keep down the growth of the place,'

much wore profit would be had. Men of

about two miles below town had bit leg
broken and mangled on Friday 7, by a
threshing machine. The unfortunate
young man, who is about fifteen years of
age, caught his clothing in the revolving
shaft of the large separator, which whirled
him around with frightlu! speed. The
space between the shaft and the barn floor
was such that every time the shaft made
an evolution, he struck the floor with ter
rible force. The machine was fortunately
stopped in time to save his life but his legs
were badly crushed a id the bone broken
above the knee of one leg. He also re
ceived serious bruises about the head and
body.— Republican.

Tliul llmilutiott
\Ye had intended giving reason* lor tin
pa**ge of the atili-Modoc resolution by
our late On Convention, hut a rorrospoml
eat saves us the trouble ill the following
MR KL'RTX: JV<ir Sir: The lb lie
fonte organ seetn* very much eieilod, and
goes off into high dudgeon over a resolu
tion pasted bv our County t %iiiventlon.
To say the least, tw remarks are ill timed
and uncalled fur. Since this outburst of
indignation I have read and ro road this
resolution tryi 'g to find out what peculiar
virtue l embodied in It I lint should so
arouse our *lf-o instituleil oracle. 1 can
find nothing either undemocratic, indeli
cate or improper It authoises our con
ferees "u use all fair and honorable means
to secure the nominations of tho District
candidate* named hy this Convention
Is that any thing eisd tlian sound Demo
craey * l* it not in meeerd with the spirit
ofour organisation * It further authorises
them "not to meet with or recognise any
eontcrees etcept these elected hy or under
the authority of the regular Democratic
County Convention* of the counties com
peting the tavern) district*." Surely there
can be nothing improper in this We
certainly do not want them to meet with
conferees cheseii by a republican, or any
ether irregular county convention. Ours
was a regular Democratic Convention, and
we don't want auy of our sister counties
to force their candidate* upon us unless
they do it by means of a similar conveit
lion We want them distinctly to under
stand that if they intend to make their
men the nominees of the party In tho dis
trict they mutt do it fairly and squarely,
openly and abpve board, by using uone
but "fair and honorable meant," and by
sending no conferee* sava those elected by
rryutai Democratic Conventions
A necessity for such a revolution un
doubtedly existed. As the Democrats of
tho County are aware, a grave dissension
occurred in the rank* of our party in
Clearfield county last fall, whereby a por
tion of tho party becamo alienated from
lbs regular organisation, held an irregu
lar Convention of their own. nominated an
irregular ticket, >up|H>rtcd and elected it
by the aid of iriegular Democratic (i, *. \
republicani \otes. Tho republicans nom
inated no ticket of their own but cast their |
solid vote for the bolters, hoping to gain
I :n the end by the breach which would thus
jbe made in our ranks This difficulty
I arose eul of the abuses of the Crawford
| County system ot making nominations.
The regular County Committee r*coguix
id this fact, and at the earliest Opportunity
they vailed a Convention to revise the
rule* of the party, and to take whatever'
step* were necessary to restore harmony
and unity. The old rules were discarded,
the Crawford County system abandoned,
and the party returned to the Convention
system, adopting a set of rules similar to
those now in use in our own county. But
it was too late to prevent the struggle from
being carried to the poll* HoweTer, eve
ry one supposed that the difficulty was at
an end, until quite recently when un out'
su/e intiumce was brought to bear upon
the leaders of this bolting faction, com
monly known as the "Modoc*,"' and they
■gain appeared uton the war-path. Cer
tain individual* became vary ambitious to 1
sit in high places, and as they were aware
they could not reach them fairly, they I
concluded to call into play their inventive :
and scheming laculties A correo|K>ndence 1
was opened with Dr. Potter and Col. Gilli- 1
land, the chief* of the "Modocs, and sev
eral meetings wrreheidin Bellefonte where
these worthies, and a few of our own politi- '
cians were present. What was done, or 1
bow it was dune, 1 am not presumed to 1
kuow. Yet this mucb is certain that from 1
this time forward the "Modoc*' began la '
make active preparation* to continue their !
war in Clearfield. 1 have, however, good 1
reasons for saying that alplan was/agreed '
upon substantially as follows.- The Mo- 1
doc* were to go home, arouse their brave*. 1
hold a County Convention and send cop- 1
fereea to all our conferee meetings, the
other conspirators guaranteed that they
would so that the Modoc
conferees would be admitted into the va
rious conference*. But their well laid
tchcnies have been signally frustrated at
every ueint. The Modoc* have received
littlo or ne encouragement in Clearfield,
because their follower* say the bone of
contention hat been removed. The other
porti -n of the agieoiueul has also fa. of
success. Thty. first attempted to coerce
Clinton into their plans, but that failing,
they bt ran to beseech them to "iel them
down easy" but all to no purpose. In our
own County they have been equally UII-
Successful ; not only that but tbey hare
received a puitlfa rebuke at the hand* of
•ur Ccunty Convention. This i* whet
grinds, and cause* all this stir in Koine.
These, Mr. Ejiter, are the f/cls in the
case, and they in themselves constitute the
answer to the question "What va* it fi 7 '
In view of these fact* can you, can any
Democrat, find anything improper in
"thiwo resolutions : ' Suppose tuch a figh;
ex is ed in our county and it was carried
before a District conference would we not
think it eminently proper if uch a resolu
tion were passed by our sister counties,
especially if th* disproportion in numbers
was so marked a* in this case, about 4UO
Modocs to 30>t) regular Democrat*? But
the No. of Modocs is now greatly decreas
ed and the/ c-l.ititij',o a mere handful.
But this noble action of our Convention
will diminish their band still mora, and
soon there will be none left but tho chief*
and their allies, who in a few weeks will
be placed on thuir reservations, and be
come the quiet and peaceable aborigine*
which they should be. Had these facts
been made public bwfofc otjr County Con
vention, the action of thai bo>jy r uiafit
have been different; but 1 am inclined to
think that the resolution would have pass
ed ss unanimously as it did. *

Tiltoii's Version of the Servant Girl
Story
A reporter has had brief talk with Mr
Tilton. He denied that bo bad received
any money fro.n Mr. Beecher, and if Mr.
Mouilon bnd received tliu amount stated it
devolved upon liini to account for it.
Shortly after Mrs. Tilton'* confession of
of Mr. Beeher's criminality, tbo servant
who was then living with Mr. Tilton,
became aw.ro of tbo fact front having
overheard the conversations which had
passed between them, and she began to

As soon as this stale of thing* was discov

girl out of Brooklyn, n a protection 16
Beecher. She was sent to a hoarding
school, and Beecher paid the expense*
through] Moulton. This, might hav*
amounted to .some two thousand dollar*.
Several gentlemen contributed to the sup

THE BEST TIME.— The wonderful
feat of Goldsmith Maid on the Buffs
lo track on Fiiday, in trotting a mile
in two minute* and fifteen and a half
seconds fully establish a her claim to
the title of IJueeti of the Turf. This
is probably the fastest time ever made
by any trotter, M it certainly is the
•astest time ever recorded. Two years
auo, when this mare made some very
fast time on a Western track, tlio
veracity of the judges was at first
ijuestioned, us uo one believed she was
able to perform such a feat. The
matter was discussed for weeks iu all
the sporting journals. \ delegation
was sent to measure the track and as
certain whether it was a full mite, and
to take the statements of witnesses, to
ascertain whether the mare kept to
the track during the race. The nueo
lion was never settled, hut Friday's
performance is evidence more than
sufficient to clear away all doubts.
The splendid ft-at was witness-d, it is
said, by about 2(1,000 |ect tors.
