Amid the universal cry of "hard
times" among the universality of mankind,
it is refreshing to bear at least one class
say that they are prospering more than
heretofore, and have more laid up for a
"rainy day" at the year's end than former
ly. Now If some people can get along
while their neighbors do not, there must
be a cause and a remedy tor the latter sure
ly, and the wise ones should not be slow to
nnd the remedy and better their condition.
An extravagant man will not lay up any
thing, for he goes beyond his income, and
at last comes out at the little end. In

people who-show wisdom in managing

' In the coming campaign ..are should be
taken to select candidate* who are holiest,
i capable and worthy of the support, pa'.-
j ronaga and confidence of the democratic
[ party. It is of littlo c-<n*equence to an.v
one, except competing candidal** whether
the candidate has been elected once, twice,
three times or no time* heretofore ; if he
ha* been tried and found to be what Jeff
erscn laid down a* a fundamental qualifi
cation of all public offices, vis Aorust .in<i
ttrpablt, so much the better reaon # wlsy
the trust and confidence reposed in him
should be continued. When this rule i*
applied where there are two or more can
didates seeking the same office, perhaps
equally qualified, but some are rich and j
the other* poor, who should Kava the'
preference? If the public will suffer no
injury and the duties of the < ffi e be a*'
well discharged, mot certainly the man !
who i* p,xir should be prcfered to the one
who is rich.
There are many candidates in our coun
ty now, in this position. Some have been
occupying the positions tbey are again
asking, some are asking tbe *rae place*
who have never held any public position ;
some asking the same posts are rich, while
ether* seeking the same are poor.
There is another matter that should re
ceive some consideration, in the choice of
a candidate, at the hand i f the public. If
tbe candidate is honest, capable and poor
and has still done great service tor hi* '
party, if through all the contests which the
party ha* had be has never been found want
ing, but has done what he cou.d for it*
good, and the success of its principles, sol
much the more reason why he should again :
receive it* support and the honors it hxsto
bestow
lor tbe office of Register of this county
there are several men announced, ar.d
among them the present incumbent The
question will naturally arise in the mind
of every intelligent man, does John H.
Morrison come up to the standard of
qualification laid down by the great
Father ot the Democratic psrty? everyone
must answer that he has been and is, both
honest ana capable, and in verification of
the answer can print in confidence to tbe
period he has filled the office, and they can
say with the same truthfulness that he is
poor.
Reside* the question of qualification
Mr Morrison has never been found want
in fidelity to the party ; he has grown old •
in it* service while the honors wefe fre
quently bestowed on men much younger
and less deserving. At different times, a*
wc-l a* at present, Mr Morrison has beer
chairman of tbe Democratic C unty Com
mittee and every time he has resigned tbe
trust with the rank and file of the parly in
good tune, and the majorities of the party
in the county fully maintained and some
times largely increased. Every one te
collec-u. and will joint with pride to tbe
brilliant campaign of 1874. when, under
circumstances the most adverse and em
barrassing, he brought thejpr rty, through
skillful management, cannot, untiring en
ergy and tbe display of tact and ability,
with ranks unbroken and its fair fame un
tarnished.
The Watchman of August 14th. 1874, in
an article headed "Chairman Morrison,'
speaks thus i "Thu i* a very important
"trust ju*t at this particular juncture, and
"and n good deal of credit will attach to
"the successful coi (1 net of the coming

THK MT'ATION
Pottsvi le, l*a , June 7. Everything was
quiet to-day at Mahati City. Shetland"-
ah and other sections of this region
Troops have been withdrawn from Sham- g
okin and returned h ■me.
Probable End Of the Sit ike.
New June A dipatch fmai
I'otUrill* says It is generally believed y
among coal operator* and other well in- j
formed citizens that the miners' strike ill g
end within a fortnight at the farthest, and
probably not outlast the present week.
The final surrender of the men will not be
simultaneous, but one colliery alter anoth- p
er will flr.d hands .enough and ready to C
abandon the union to begin operation*. °
To protect them the assistance of troop*' .
will be needed until the strike I* definite- f
ly abandoned.
Immense Loas To the Striker*. f'
The los to Schuylkill county a!, nefroiu u
five month's suspension of all running op- •!
rrations is estimated at $lO UUU.OOO, of
which sum the men lose 55.0UU.000 in wa
ges. If they should carry their point they
could not make up this loss by the differ
ence between the old and the proposed
new wages, in four yars, but a* they will
certainly bo defeated, the whole of this
vat sum will be a total loss to them.

THK SITUATION IN LUZERNE. \
