forward ahead of the track laying, and that
Major McCabe is well known on the Central
road as a very reliable gentleman, of superior
business qualities, and all the parties belong
ing to the company are men of energy, and
will not be laggards in their undertaking."
in regard to selling liquor by Druggists,
Judge Dian gave his views as follows : Drug
gists are authorized to sell liquor for medical
purposes, subject, however, to the risk of in
dictment. A physician's prescription is not
of itself a safeguard for the druggist. If the
latter, even on the prescription of a regular
physician, sells liquor to a person of known
intemperate habits, or to those who are known
to use the liquor as a beverage, he is liable to
indictment, and if found guilty, will be pun
ished to the extent of the law. In short, in
the opinion of the Court, a druggist who sells
liquor for any purpose whatever, or upon the
prescription of the most eminent physician in
the county, does so at his own risk."
SENATORIAL CONFERENCE.—The Re
publican Senatorial Conference of the XXllth

was made to instruct the Delegate on the Su
preme Judge question, but meeting with con
siderable opposition, was withdrawn. After
a cordial interchange of sentiment by the

pHs in the district, after which the Conference

D. W. WOODS, Pres't.
Wm. M. ALLISON, See'y.
WATER WORKS.—The question of a
sufficient supply of water for thc town of Hun
tingdon, may as well be met now as again. If
the people desire to secure the investment of cap
ital here, they must present the same advanta
ges that are presented by rival towns. No
man will be willing to come here, from any of
the great thoroughfares, and invest his money
without, at least, having the same convenien
ces that he now enjoys. While, to some people,
water pipes are almost unknown, yet, to those
who have been accustomed to them they are
almost indispensible. But, beyond this, in
case of a fire they are of vastly more import
ance. We are told that fifty thousand dollars
will secure us the much coveted improvement.
If this estimate is correct, and we have no
good reason to doubt it, the Council should
not hesitate a moment to secure us the relief
we so much need.
A few days ago we were informed that the
proprietors of the Car Works feared very much
that they would not be able to run their works
owing to the insufficiency of the water supply.
Two wells have been sunk, and yet there is
not a sufficiency. What incouragemeut is
there for capitalists to locate manufactories
here under such circumstances? -The chances
are against us. We must have water, or Hun.
tiugdon cannot maintain her position. We
hope the Council will not hesitate to undertake
the improvement.
AN IMPORTANT Law.—The following
act for the better collection of debts in Penn
sylvania, was passed by the recent Legislature:
That in all cases where any judgment has
been heretofore obtained in any court in this
commonwealth against any person or persons,
if an execution be istued upon the said judg
ment, which is returned by the Sheriff nulls
bona, or that the debtor has Do property out
of which the said judgment and execution can
be satisfied, any judge of said court may there
upon issue a subpoena commanding the said
debtor to appear before a judge or any com
missioner duly appointed by the said court, to
undergo an examination under oath as to his
property and effects, with power to compel
obedience to the subpoena by attachment and
the production of books and papers necessary
to the said examination. In case the said ex
amination does not disclose any property or
effects the expenses thereof shall be paid by
the party instituting the same, otherwise they
shall be part of the regular cost of suit.

H. G. Fisher then moved, as a substitute,
that Samuel T. Brown, David S. Henderson,
and Silas Gibboney be a Committee on contest
ed seats, the question was put and the Chair
indicated its adoption, when a division was
called and resulted in -its adoption by a vote
of 51 to 27.
Hereupon Mr. Guss raved and fumed like a
madman, and moved that the Convention ad
journ, which was ruled out of order. He then
put the question himself, amidst considerable
confusion, and declared the Convention ad
journed, and stalked out, followed by eighteen
or twenty delegates, while the Convention
jeered and hooted the renegades.

The temporary Secretaries were elected per
manently.
Mr. Fisher, on taking the chair, returned
thanks for the honor conferred upon him, and
expressed the hope that the Convention would
now act wisely and harmoniously, as all the
villainy that had been coupled with it bad
just left it.
Dr. H. Orlady moved that a Committee of
five be appointed to draft resolutions expres-
sive of the sense of the Convention, which was
unanimously adopted.
The Chair appointed Dr. H. Orlady, G. W.
Hamilton, H. Robinson, Dr. G. W. Hewitt and
Geo. W. McAlevy.
On motion of S. T. Brown, Esq., the thanks
of the Convention were unanimously tendered
to A. Tyhurst, Esq., for the able and efficient
manner in which he conducted the last cam
paign as Chairman of the County Committee.
Mr. Brown then addressed the Convention
for a few minutes, urging united and unani
mous action.
The Committee on resolutions read the fol
lowing report, viz :
Ist. That the Republicans of Huntingdon
County re assert their attachment to the Re
publican party of the Union. With the
National Government in its hands, rebellion
has been suppressed, a race emancipated, citi
zenship and suffrage have been secured by
Constitutional guarantees, and protected by
the power of the National Legislature and Ju
diciary ; the National Debt has been steadily
diminished, and taxation steadily reduced ;
the National Credit has been maintained
and a large part of the National Debt
funded at a low rate of interest; Pensions
have been promptly paid to our soldiers and
sailors, their widows and orphans ; treasona
ble disorders have been held in check; we have
enjoyed security, Peace and prosperity at home,
and have ensured the respect of other nations
by maintaining the rights and asserting the
power of our own. To President GRANT and
his administration aro these results largely
due, and recognizing him as its chosen leader,
with full reliance upon his wisdom and integ
rity, the Republican party will go forward in
the discharge of its high duties, relying upon
the intelligence and patriotism of the People
to sustain it against the clamors of all the dis
cordant combinations that vainly seek to stay
its progress, and supplant it in power.
20d. - Thai Gov. JOHN F. HAitTRANFT has
justified the confidence of his friends, and
silenced the detraction of his enemies by the
firm and impartial manner in which lie has in
terposed his Executive veto to prevent a flood
of special legislation and to protect our people's
rights against unreasonable corporate privil
eges. He has secured, and by his future action,
we believe he will retain, the peoples' confi•
dence in his administration of the affairs of the
Commonwealth.
3rd. That as the immediate fellow-citizen of
Hon. JOHN SCOTT, we take pride and pleas •
ure in commending his whole course in the
Senate of the United States, as characterized
by ability, industry, and fidelity, in the dis
charge of his duties to the whole Union and
in retaining the interests of Pennsylvania and
the principles of the Republican party. His
action in opposing and refusing to accept the
extra back pay, was but a realization of the
confidence which we who know him best re
pose in his common sense and integrity.
4th. We condem the action of every mem
ber of Congress, without respect to party,who
either voted for the extra back pay, or having
voted against, received and kept it.
sth. That the Huntingdon Globe is not do
serving
of recognition as an exponent of Re
publican sentiment, but should be known
abroad us it is at home, as simply a medium,
bought and used by its editor, and his asso
ciates, to gratify their personal resentment,
by the defamation of all Republicans, who do
not agree with them, and being thus only a
source of weakness and dissension it is declar
ed unworthy of the support or confidence of
the party.
sth. That it is the right of the People to be
represented in the State Convention by a Del
egate chosen in accordance with their latest
expressed will, and this Convention hereby re
vokes the action of the late County Committee,
taken many months since in electing a dele
gate to the State Convention which has not yet
assembled, and hereby elects Horatio G. Fisher
to represent the Republican Party of Hunting
don County in the State Convention to assem
ble at Harrisburg on Wednesday, the 13th of
August, 1873. This action is rendered the
more imperative in as much as A. L. Guss,
who was elected by the County Committee,
has this day. as a disorganizer and without
ca use, withdrawn from this Convention and
placed himself in opposition to the regular or
glanization of the party
7th. That the County Committee shall be
appointed by the Chairman this day elected
on consultation with the President of this
Convention and the candidates this day nomi
nated.

LOCOMOTIVE WHISTLING IN THE AL
TOONA Yean.—During the past few days sev
eral editorial articles have appeared in the
Philadelphia Public Ledger relative to the non
whistling of locomotives while passing through
the railroad company's yard, in this city. One
of the articles paid tribute to the City Council
for the abolishment of the nuisance by ordi
nance, which was incorrect, as no ordinance
bearing on the question has ever been promul
gated. The second article in the Ledger dis
sipates the statement that the nuisance com
plained of was abolished by city ordinance,
and very properly compliments the railway
officers who took official cognizance in the
premises, and adds :
Whoever contrived the means for abolishing
the nuisance and put it into successful opera
tion, deserves the thanks of men and the grati
tude of horses. And to any and every railroad
corporation that has not yet discontinued the
abominable practice, it may be said : go thou
and do likewise, as it is done on the Pennsyl
vania Railroad tracks at Altoona,
The reform, as it may be called, was intro
duced several years ago by Superintendents
Dr. Edward IL Williams and John Reilly, al
though it proved to be a very difficult task that
they had resolved to accomplish, as the prac
tice had been in vogue ever since the first lo
comotive was brought to this point. An order
having been promulgated looking to a cessation
of the practice, and the penalties for violation
of an order being the same as for a violation
of the rules of the company, the engine•drivers
were eventually made to fully comprehend the
situation and to govern themselves accordingly.
Since the inauguration of the reform several
years ago, it bas been successfully continued
to the present time.—Altoona Tribune.

FIRE !—On yesterday afternoon as a
train, ladened with coal oil, was passing West
over the P.R. R. and while in the neighbor
hood of the freight depot, in this place, a
spark from the locomotive was communicated
to one of the barrels, and in a little while some
eight or nine barrels were on fire. The car
was run to the foot of Fifth street and de
tached from the train, when several citizens
mounted the car and removed some eighteen
barrels which had not yet ignited. The steam
er was promptly on hand, and threw immense
quantities of water on the burning mass, but
for over an hour the fire burned, the water
seeming only to add fuel to the flame. The
track was slightly damaged, but ne detention
was experienced by other trains.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
A Proposition.
If ix. EDITOR :-I notice that the Poor House
faction is very busily engaged in prospecting
and canvassing for another "grab" at the
County Treasury.
According to the ringmaster's own state
ment and showing it has cost the coun
ty only a fraction less than Seventeen
Thousand Dollars a year to run this "Poor
House Political Machine."
To make a long story shoat, without bandy
ing words with political bandits, I will just
say to the tax payers of Huntingdon county,
that I will run the Poor House—without the
political and sponging attachments—with as due
regard for the comfort and welfare of all pro
per inmates, as has been done heretofore, for
the sum of Six Thousand Dollars and the use
of the farm, and I will give approved security ,
in the sum of Twenty Thousand Dollars, for
the faithful performance of my contract. This
is no buncombe, but a square offer, that I ant
ready and willing to back up substantially.—
What say ye, tax-payers? Joni H. Lerz.
Shirleysburg, Aug. 15, 1873.
Harvest Home,
Ms. EDITOR —For some time past we had
anticipated just such a trip as we yesterday
enjoyed. On the evening of the sth we ordered
a team of poniesf with instructions that they
be ready at seven, sharp, and retired for the
night. Next morning, after feasting bounti
fully, we wended our way towards the "Old
Camp Ground," near Saulsbnrg, and about
twelve miles front this place. Our ponies be
ing the fleetest on the road we arrived in good
time, that is in time to note at least some of
the occurrences of the day. We were first
greeted by Messrs. Conpropst, Miller, and oth
ers, who inquired if we had our pocket-books
along, and answering in the affirmative they
bade us enter the enclosure and "make our
selves as miserable as possible."
First in order was an able address by our
townsman, Rev. McMurray, on the subject of
"Harvest Homes." His address was instruc
tive throughout. He was followed in a neat
and appropriate address by Rev. J. D. Thomas,
after whirls was sung the "doxology," when
we adjourned to surround swell spread table.
Well might one then truly have said "the
Harvest is plenty and the laborers not a few."
Two rows of tables extended across the entire
width of the camp ground, upon which were
placed the luxuries of life. The ladies in that
locality know bow to get up a good dinner,
and as we are remarkably fond of such things,
we think seriously of calling on some fair one
and contracting for life. We hope that the
good citizens who greeted us with their smi
ling faces may live long and enjoy many such
bountiful feasts. The day was warm yet
pleasant, and after spending the afternoon
rambling through the grove, we struck for
"ye ancient borough," feeling that it was good
to be there. ENGLISH C.
