WAR ABOUT TO BE DECLARED !
'' BREAD OR BLOOD !"
These startling headings suggest
ed themselves to us as we mentally
asked the question, What do those
of our patrons mean, who make no
effort to pay ? A short time ago we
gent out an even 400 duns, not one
of them for less than $4. The re
sponse was scarcely enough to pay
the postage. What on earth are we
to do ? We can't buy paper, farnish
labor, pay postage, rent, and the
Lord only knows what all, without
money. Must we shut up our es
tablishment because we cannot get
enough ready cash to keep it run
ning ? There are hundreds who
owe us a mere tripe of from two to
ten dollars that would put us out of
all embarrassment if they would on
ly pay up. We appeal to you to do
it. Do not pay all other debts and
leave your printing bill stand until
the publishers are ruined by your
dereliction. It pains us to write so
wickedly, but every other expedient
has failed, and now to evade the
declaration of war, PAY UP!
SAMUEL IL IRVIN, our nominee for
Sheriff, is growing in popularity every day.
Don't fail to vote for him.
IF you want an honest and competent
Eau to fill the office of Sheriff for the next
three years, vote for Samuel H. Irvin.
The dignified Boston Advfriiser mourns
thus:
"We can't have everything to tiokle us;
The Buckeye State has gene ridiculous."
Wm. H. BOOTH, the Republican nom.
inee for County Surveyor, is a gentleman
every way qualified for the position. Vote
for him.
Tug President is showing a disposition
to recede from the policy which brought
tincit terrible disaster to Ohio. Sing the
doxology.
WILLS and Harper, when they enter
upon their duties as Directors of the Poor,
will see that the affairs of the Alms House
are rue in an economical way.
DR. A.B. BRUMBAUGH, is just the
man for Coroner,and as it is conceded that
this officer should reside at the county
seat, he will be elected beyond a doubt.
THE Twice-a Week, published at Mi fl in
town, Juniata county, has espoused the
cause of the Greenback party, and flies the
ticket of that organization at its mast head.
"JAM" PASSMORE is a hard, conscien
tious worker. There is no tire in him.—
He is honest, actuate and reliable. Elect
him and the financial affairs of the State
will be closely scrutinized for the next four
years to come.
COL. WILSON, Chairman of the Repub
beau State Central Committee, inspires
confidence in all those who approach him.
He is an earnest, conscientious man, and
will leave no stone unturned to bring about
a handsome victory.
JUDGE STERRETT is universally pro
nounced one of the best and most able
lawyers in the State. nis short experience
oa the Supreme Bench has won for him
golden opinions. He deserves an election
and we feel confident that he will be elected.
"PLUMB LINE HART" is one of the
beet and most accurate men in the State.
Ha is a workingman. He is popular with
all who know him. He is as honest as
steel and as manly as he is honest. Elect
Hart and your State finances will be safe
for four years.
INTEREST in the campaign is being
aroused all over the State. The Ohio
election has stirred up the Republican
blood and from this out they mean to fight
They are little late getting at it but better
late than never. The State Central Corn
alittee are laboring earnestly to produce a
favorable result.
RKPUBLICANS, an active campaign is
what you want. No majority party can
afford to conduct a still hoot. There could
be ao greater folly. It may be all fuss and
gammon that is resorted to to get oat a
♦ete, but the noise is absolutely necessary
to arouse the majority of men. The Chi
nese understand this principle better than
ise do, and therefore have invented in
struments that make the most hideous
noises known to the world.
cgs Ohio election has proved that the
quickest way to defeat the Republican
party is to vote Independent, Greenback,
Labor, and Temperance tickets, thus show
log that the intelligent men who want re•
forms of all kinds are chiefly Republicans.
Would it not be better to support the great
party of progress, and trust to it making
as brilliant a record in the future as it has
arm the past, rather than to turn the Govern.
ment over to the Democrats, who have al.
ways opposed every measure designed to
benefit the people ?—Pairs.
THE lowa Republicans make a pretty
good showing for a "dying" party, says a
contemporary. Their State Convention
very prudently refused to declare for or
against the President's policy, recognizing
the right, of individual judgment on this
matter, and declining to make either swal
low the views of the other. They followed
the example of Maine and Pennsylvania,
and in this respect were wiser than the
Ohio managers. The result is an old
fashioned Republieau triumph. Nor are
the lowa Republicans a bit backward in
calling attention to their treatment of the
question of endorsing the President as the
true one. Their candidate for Governor
has a plurality 18,000 larger than their
candidate in the last off-year, and about
8,000 larger than their candidate in 1875.
The majority in the Legislature is larger
than it has been for many years.
Now for Pennsylvania
- EDITOR
THE negro troops will not "fight brave
ly" any wore in South Carolina, for the
reason that there are no longer any negro
troops in the State. Wade Hampton has
called in all the arms issued to the militia,
and virtually disbanded the nego com
panies. This will make the black people
an easier prey than ever to White Leaguers
in election time. In addition to this,
Hampton has ordered the discontinuance
of the blue uniform hitherto worn by the
militia, and the adoption of good old Con
federate gray. His next movement prob•
ably will be to introduce the Rebel flag
It is to be regretted that Hampton did not
state these facts plainly in one of the
speeches made by him while he was bob
nobbing with the President a few weeks
ago. We should like to have observed in
what manner the President would have
treated it in one of his discourses.—Phila.
THE Republicans of Pennsylvania are
in much better position than their brethren
in Ohio. They are united and firm, and
are not loaded down with a platform they
are unwilling to carry. Their State Con
vention gave them a platform that they
can all endorse and in which they all be
lieve, and there is nothing to distract them
or dampen their ardor. They have a good
ticket, they occupy an impregnable posi
tion, and have every motive to stir them
into effective action. Let them show, now,
that they are equal to the occasion All
that is needed to ensure success, is a little
more vigilance and energy, and a determi
nation to show their brethren in Ohio,
that, although constantly scouted at and
reproached, they are possessed of more wis
dom and more party devotion than those
who have been so long flinging sneers at
them.—Pittsburgh Commercial.
THE g4ssipy Harrisburg correspondent
of the Indiana Democrat, speaking of the
nomination for Secretary of Internal AS
fa:_rg, a year hence, says :
"For Secretary of Internal Affairs, I have
only heard the names so far of Solomon Fos
ter, Jr., of Pottsville, and J. Simpson Africa,
the present Deputy Secretary. Mr. Africa is
known as one of the best surveyors and con
veyancers in the State. He has a large busi
ness in Huntingdon. Several years ago he
was a member of thedlouse of Representatives,
and was considered one of the leaders on the
Democratic side. General McCandless was
extremely fortunate in securing his services
as Deputy Secretary. He is affable in his dig
position, and fills the position not only with
ability and credit, but to the entire satisfac
tion of every one having business with the
Department of Internal Affairs."
THE Philadelphia Press thus casts the
horoscope of the political future ; "With
Mr. Randall's election as presiding officer
of the popular branch of the Forty-fifth
congress may be said to commence the
restoration of the democrats to power in
most of the states of this Union. They
have the house by a majority of fourteen
while the Republicans hold the Senate by
a majority of four with a prospect of losing
that after the 4th of March, 1879. What
ever the cause of this fact, Jet ui calmly
face the fact."
THE Republicans are thoroughly aroused
and united in New York, and are deter
mined to carry the State in November
against the old "Boss" Tweed ring that
has now got control of the party. Let the
Republicans of Huntingdon county buckle
on their harness and go to work. Get out
every vote, and we will carry Pennsylvania
by a rousing majority. There is no reason
why we should not give our State ticket
twenty-five thousand majority in Novem
ber, and we can do it if we are diligent in
our work.
THIS is the way the Ohio election in
spired Uncle Jake Zeigler of the Butler
Herald. It is suggestive :
"Every Democrat who prides in the name
should be active and vigilant. No stone should
be left unturned to produce a victory in the
State. It will do more in restoring confidence
and trust in our institutions—more good in
placing the finances of the country on a firm
and enduring basis—more good in producing
industrial thrift and employment for labor,
than all the fine spun theories of financial
speculation. Therefore, let every man clap
his shoulder to the wheel and November will
bring victory to the Democratic party."
SPEAKING of the Republicans of Ohio,
and Mr. Robinson, the chairman of their
State committee, the Liter-Ocean says :
"How under heaven they ever succeeded
in keeping the Democratic majority down
to 20,000, with such a stupendous ass to
run the campaign, surpasses our compre
hension."
RxputtLicANs remember that the county
ticket is extremely small and that as a con
sequence there will be less individual in
terest. To offset this and make up for
the deficiency every wan must do his part.
Work, every man of you.
Tux French Republicans are victorious.
The American Republicans should make a
note of this and not allow their French
aoutemporaries to outstrip them, Let the
order to advance pass all along the line.
OH to iiwent for" the President's policy.
Pennsylvania will go Republican. The
former settled that little businers, Now
then, Republicans, no more fooling.
THERE are six Democratic candidates
for Sheriff in Elk county. Mr. D. C.
Oyster is the Republican candidate. We
will bet the Oysters on that chap.
'DIE special session of Congress is mo•
ving off very nicely. Both parties appear
to have resolved to get down to work and
to do that for which they were convened.
WE are glad to ECC that "throwing mud's
is going out of fashion among our political
exchanges in this State, remarks the Bea
ver Argus and Radical. It is of no earthly
use, and only serves to disgust decent men
with the practical details of politics. The
only papers left to do the "dirty work,"
are those that have neither character
abroad nor influence at home. It is one
of the favorable signs of the times that
public sentiment is so rapidly "rooting out"
personal journalism in Pennsylvania. Let
it become utterly extinct as soon as possible.
SEVERAL Democratic newspapers hasten
to announce the demise of the Republican
party, and are anxious to hold the funeral
without delay. It is easy enough to ap
point a funeral, but it is another thing to
prepare the corpse. The Republican party
has no idea of dying so long as the Demo
cracy survive to make mischief.
REPUBLICANS, don't leave Irvin, Har
per, Wills, Booth or Brumbaugh be
scratched from a single ticket. Vote
straight and there will be no crookedness
in the result.
THE Cinc i unati Times, a staunch Hayes
paper, says ninety thousand Republicans
neglected to vote at the late election.
Trtz starch was taken right out of the
President's policy in Ohio. Let the Re
publicans of Pennsylvania stiffen up.
Our New York Letter.
NEw YORK, Oct. 24, 1877.
Business—The Obelisk—Another Strike—The Lost
Swindle—Political—Lotteries.
nuslmEss.
As everything pertaining to the business of the
country is of interest, I called upon several of the
heaviest jobbers. The reports were all alike.
Business is now healthier than at any time since
the war. The volume of trade is nut so large,
more discretion and judgment is being used, and
the quality of the goods purchased is different.
The purchases of tine goods are much less, and
trade runs largely to necessaries. In brief, mer
chants are buying liberally, though very carefully,
and buying intending to pay. The reports are
all to the effect that the farmers are doing well,
and buying fairly well, while the working-people
in the towns, especially those that are dependent
upon manufactures, are poor, and are buying very
little as yet. But there is a strong hope of im
provement in these, as the good condition of the
farming community cannot but improve their con
dition. Altogether the merchants are of the opin
ion that the good times have commenced, and that
they will continue till we get back to a good, safe,
steady-going condition of things.
THE OBELISK,
The English succeeded in getting permission of
the Khedive of Egypt to remove to London the
Alexandria Obelisk which every school-boy has
read of, known as "Cleopatra's Needle." It is
now on its way to England, and will be set up in
Trafalgar Square. Not to be behindhand, an
American Merchant, who withholds his name, per
suaded the Khedive to permit another one to be
brought to New York, and he donated the cost of
bringing it,—sloo,ooo. The papers are all drawn,
and as soon as steam can do it, an Obelisk that
Moses and Aaron looked upon will be setup in the
youngest of the great cities of the world. Who
the donor is, no one knows, but time will reveal
the secret. It was a noble and generous act,
ANOTHER STRIKE.
This time it is the cigar makers. Five thous
and of them, and doubtless justly so, have quit
work, and are tr) ug to make the strike general.
The notable feature in this emeute, is the fact that
a woman is one of the leaders, and a principal one.
Mary Heisler, a young Bohemian woman who has
gained a great deal of influence over the laborers
of the city by her fervid oratory and advanced
communistic ideas, was elected Vice-President of
the Central Association, and she at once took po
sition as its real head. The cigar—makers, who
are largely foreigners, look upon her as a seeond
Joan of Aro, and they obey her commands with
out question. The majority of the edger-makers
are the lowest grade of Jermans and Poles, who
live in the filthiest tenement houses, doing their
work there. They are underpaid and overworked,
for the reason that the trade is easily learned, and
there is such a glut of workers that the employers
can get any amount of labor at their own price.
The employers are almoet ail foreigners, and are
merciless toward the poor of their own nationali
ties. The strikers now number five thousand, and
it is probable that the movement will go on till it
will embrace all the operatives in the city.
THE LAST SWINDLE,
The last swindle is a variation of an old one,
which originated in this city, and is being prose
cuted from here. The modus operandi is very
simple. It is a wire fence of a not very new pat
tern, and which is not even patentable. The
smooth-tongued agent shows it to a farmer, and
solicits hint to become an agent for it, As an in
ducement he is offered fifty rods free, provided he
will put it up along the road where it can be seen
and serve as an advertisement. It is a handsome
fence, and the fanner bites at the offer. First be
gets fifty rods of fence for nothing, and if he does
take an order, he gets a liberal commission. He
signs what he supposes is an order for fifty rods
and immediately the wire is shipped him. Then
comes another agent who demands pay for one
hundred and fifty rods. Indignant farmer explains
that he was to have fifty rods free. Agent says,
Ceitsinly, but you have ordered one hundred and
fifty rods, and the one hundred rods you must pay
for at flor cents a foot." And he produces an
order with the farmer's signature, to that effect.
The process is very simple. The farmer saw a
contract for fifty rods, but when he came to sign,
that order was slipped up, and he really put his
name to another one for one hundred and fifty
rods, that lay just underneath. He is frightened
into giving his note for, say $2OO, which he ex
pects to resist, but he always finds that it has been
discounted at the nearest bank, and he pays it.
When will farmers learn that all these gifts and
everything of the kind are merely swindles, end
that there is always a oat under the meal.
POLITICAL
The Democracy of the city opposed to Tammany
are attempting to combine their forces, so as to
make a successful fight against the hydra-headed
monster. The Tribune says, "They procrastinate,"
and of course they procrastinate, as Anti-Tam
many always did and always will, for there is
nothing honest in the movement. The Anti-Tam
many Democracy are just like the other Tamviany
Democracy, only they happen to be the ones left
out in the cold. They organize, not to beat Tam
many, but to compel a divelon of the spoils. If
they are weak, Tammany laughs at them;—if
they are strong, Tammany buys them up. This
has been the practice for years, and will be to the
end of time. John Kelley will look them over,
buy up such as he wants, and contemptuously kick
the others. "Procrastination" in this case means
waiting for a bid. The Republicans are doing
little or nothing. Neither in the Times or T-ibune
of Tuesday was there a word relating to the State
ticket.
LOTTERIES
The police, guided by Anthony Comstock, are
making a raid on the lotteries. Comstock suc
ceeded in breaking up the sale of obscene Litera
ture, but he will fail in his attack upon the lotte
ries. The lottery people are rich and well organ
ised, and the business of gulling fools is too profi
table to be given up without a fight. They have
the best legal talent in the city behind them, and
then their methods of doing business are so secret
and well guarded that it is difficult to convict them.
There are a large number of lotteries that have
their head-quarters in the city, and all of them,
with five exceptions, are bogus. They take in
vast sums of money, though. PIETRO.
AN HISTORICAL FACT.—Every agent
who has been steadily selling the Improved
$2O Homestead Sewing Machine for three
years, owns his dwelling house, has a good
account in bank, is clear of debt, and has
money at interest,—the natural consequence
of securing a good agency for superior goods
at the lowest prices. A good first-class
Sewing Machine, most useful—reliable at all
times, easy to understand and control, the
same size and does the same work as any
machines that sell at FOUR TIMES the price.
There is no machine at any price better, or
that will do finer or more work, and certainly
none so low in price by many dollars. The
liosttsvan is widely known and used in
thousands of families in the Eastern and Mid
dle States, and daily becoming popular in the
West. It will save its cost several times over
in one season, doing the work of the family,
or will earn four or five dollars a day for any
man or woman who sews for a living. It is
the strongest machine made, is ready at all
times to do its work, makes the strongest and
finest stitch yet iaveuted, and is fully acknowl
edged as the Standard Family Sewing Machine.
