The Huntingdon Journal DUBBORROW J. ft HUNTINGDON, PENN'A FRIDAY, - - - NOVEMBER 9, 1877 Circulation LARGER than any ether Paper in the Juniata Valley. 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 sent 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, furnish 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 trifle of from two to ten dollars that would Fut 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! THE ELECTIONS. Elections were held io New York, Mas sachusetts, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Illinois, Wisconsin, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Maryland on Tuesday last. New York, Pennsylvania New Jersey, Louisiana, Mississippi and Maryland have gone Democratic. The legis lature in New York remaining Republican on joint ballot which insures the re-election of Senator Conkliug. Massachusetts, Con necticut, Wisconsin, Kansas and Illinois figure iu the Republican column. In this State the official vote will elect Hon. John Trunkey by 5,000 or 6,000 and the balance of the Democratic ticket by majorities ranging from 9,000 to 12,000. *ln this county the whole Republican, ticket is elected in majorities ranging from 7 to 377 as will be seen by table published elsewhere. Huntingdon county did nobly. It is the green spot of the Juniata Valley. We congratulate our friends upon their succes.. The election presented a strange anomaly in this county. For the first time in the history of parties a side issue re dounded to the disadvantage of the Dem ocracy. For the first time in our experience the laboring men took the bull squarely by the horns and spurned the advances of both the old political parties. Men, who have been pulled about and fought over for years, armed themselves with greenback tickets, and thrusting their former guard ians aside, with cars deaf to every appeal, bolted straight to the polls and voted them. They were as deaf to persuasion and the usual entreaties, to say nothing of bullying, as a stone. We never expected to see the day when the laborer would have the back. bone to do the like, but we have been dis appointed. The Workingmen have at last. resolved that their demands mast be heard and it is time far the old parties to take heed. From 11 votes for Cooper to 203 fur Bentley, in Huntingdon borough, means business. All this without an organ or the aid of men who know bow to run the machine. Make way for the boys, they are coming *At the time of writing this it was thought that Wills was elected by 7 votes but tl - e official votes elects Stair, Retnoerat, by 11 majority. WHAT SHALL BE DONE FOR THE DESTITUTE ? ArP there no sources of relief available for the 'rightful destitution and misery nc.q so widely prevalent in our midst ? The heart of the philanthropist grows sad a. . sic over the painful spectacle -vhich confronts him on every hand. Day and night hundras roam our streets, destitut e of the commonest necessities of life—scores of accomplished clerks, skilled mechanics, and capable 1. - ..aers—in many instances, with families ou the verge of starvation, anxious to obtain employment, fruitlessly seek even th.„ most menial drudgery. Were these unfortunates confined to the indolent and vicious classes of society, sympathy might probably be refused and eharity withheld But amcng them are enumerated hundreds whose present hap less condition is not unfrequently attribut able to the oppression or dishonesty or heartless employers, or to personal mis fortunes which no sagacity on. their part could have averte.l. Our daily records tt.atify that, in addition to those whose nights are passed c he cells or waiting rooms of Police S.ations, large numbers are the nightly occupants of the open halls of tenement houses, of deserted piers and of every species of receptable which prom ises temporary protection from the chilling blast. In sleep alone can they find even a transient oblivion of their misery and wretcher'ness, for when morning dawns, and their fitful and unrefreshing slumbers are rudely disturbedr they realize the frightful truth, that amid the abundant means around them, though there is "Food, fuod, everywhere," for them "there is not a morsel to eat." It is true that the prevalent poverty and suffering are largely referable to the con sequences attendant upon indulgence in intoxicating drinks. But thero are scores of moral, temperate and industrious mem. hers of society deprived of employment by the nuniercial reduction of employees in every department of skilled labor, conse quent upon mercantile failures and the general prostration of industrial pursuits. We contend that in this country, with its enlightened and liberal institutions, no paralysis of its industries should ever be sufficient to inflict the calamities with which we are now burdened. Is there not something radically wrong in a free government, under whose administration such appalling wretchedness and destitu tion are so universally prevalent ? Are our statesmen destitute of the sagacity and wisdom requisite to devise some method, to inaugurate some policy, which will at least palliate present sufferings and which will, eventually, preclude the possibility of their recurrence? Are not these evils mainly attributable to the selfish spirit of the age, which sordidly seeks its own gratification regardless of the miseries of their less fortunate fellow-men ? - - EDITOR We believe it is the promise of the Federal authorities to institute measures looking to an effective prevention of the sufferings of the industrial classes, attend ant upon the monetary disasters with which unscrupulous Money Kings periodically convulse the country. Could not portions of our broad domain, with its exliuberant fertility of soil, be legitimately utilizee ? Could not government farms be opened under official supervision, from the products of which, thousands of destitute families, uow compelled to remain in involuntary idleness, might, by honest toil, obtain the necessaries and comforts of life ? Would it be unconstitutional to establish national manufactories, in which skilled laborers might be employed, with profit to the government and advantage to the artisan ? One thing is beyond controversy, it is a burning reproach that honest penury and unavoidable starvation should curse our land and no active effort made to solve the problem of their prevention. This subject is commended to the serious consideration of those statesmen whose patriotism is not circumscribed by the illiberal limits of partisan or selfish aggrandizement. In the meantime, let our citizens obey the dictates of mercy and humanity, by the institution of prompt measures for the succor of the unfortunates who must perish from want unless speedily rescued. In this hour of compulsory idleness and terrible suffering, let us not discuss the subject. of pauperism, in its economic and political aspects, but let private benevolence and public charity extend instantaneous relief. A FAST AGE. We hear it said every day, and in re proachful terms, that we live in a fast age; that we madly hurry through life with lightning speed; that the wild demon of unrest is driving us to destruction, and that such things as quiet domestic enjoy ments and fireside sports are myths to the present generation ! True, there is some thing mournfully pleasant in the memories connected with the manners and customs of fifty years ago, the good old fashioned days which have now vanished forever. When men were not crazed in their eager pursuit of wealth, and women were con tent with innocent recreations ; when the term "old fogyism" was not applied to the gentle pastimes of our fathers ; when tea drinking, quilting-parties and blind-man's buff were not voted tame and insuff!rable. But with all the restlessness and fever ish excitement characteristic of the age, have mankind suffered from the exchange? Is not the world to-day better off than it was half a century since ? Are we not more highly cultured, and are we not con ferring incalculable benefits upon our race and successfully solving the great political problem, "How shall we accomplish the greatest good for the greatest number ?" Should we selfishly return to the slow and plodding round of the horse bark mill, rather thin utilize, with its universal ben efits, the whirring machinery of the engine and the boiler ? To this very spirit of restlessness and inquiry, we are indebted tbr the electric wire and the iron horse, anu the thousand inventions and discover ies which have lightened the labor of the toiling masses, and at the same time mul tiplicd the comforts and conveniences of life. As compared with a half a century since, our advances in every element essen tial to a healthy developement and prog ress of the human race, have been almost miraculous, and to the eager, active, rest less spirit of the age are these advances mainly attributable. Thanksgiving Proclamation. The follotcing Was issued this afternoon : By the President of the United States of America: The completed circle of summer and winter seedtime and harvest has brought us to the accus tomed season at which religious people celebrate with praise and thanksgiving the enduring mercy of Almighty God. This devout and public con fession of the constant dependence of man upon the Divine Father for all the good gifts of life and health, and peace and happiness, su early in our history made a habit of our people, finds in the survey of the past year new grounds for its joyful and grateful manifestation. In all blessing which depend upon benignant seasons this has indeed been a memorable year. Over the wide territory of our country, with all its diversity of soil and climate and products, the earth has yielded a bountiful return to the labor of the husbandman. The health of the people has been blighted by no prevalent or wide spread diseases. No great dis asters of shipwreck upon our coasts or to our com merce on the seas have brought loss and hardship to our merchants or mariners, and clouded the happiness of the community with sympathetic sorrow. In all that concerns our strength and peace and greatness as a nation, in all that touches the permanence and security of our Government and the beneficient institutions on which it rests, in all that affects the character and dispositions of our people, and tests our capacity to enjoin and uphold die equal and free condition of society, now permanent and univesal throughtout the land, the experience of the last year is conspicuously marked by the providence of God, and is full of promise and hope for coming generations. Under a sense of these infinite obligations to the Great Ruler of times and seasons and events, let us hum bly ascribe it to our own faults and frailties if in any degree that perfect concord and happiness, peace and ju , tice when such great mercies should ditlase through the hearts and lives of our people, do not altogether and always and everywhere pre vail. LE. us with one spirit and one voice lift up praise and thanksgiving to God for His manifold goodness to our land aad His manifest care fur the nation. Now, therefore, I, Rutherford B. Hayes, Presi— dent of the United States, do appoint Thursday, the 29th day of November next as a day of nation al thanksgiving and prayer, and I earnestly recom mend that withdrawing themselves from secular cares and labors, the people of the United States do meet together on that day in their respective places of worship, there to give thanks and praise to Almighty God for his mercies, and to devoutly beseech their continuance. In witness whereof I h:ive hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at the City of Washington, this twenty ninth day of October, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and seventy-seven, and of the independence of the United States the one hundred and second.

Places of Amusement—Oakey Bonds —The Strikers —Batter once More—The Beecher People. PLACES OF AMUSEMF.NT. People are in the habit of supposing that theatres and circuses are mints, and that whoever can get control of a place of amusement 8 on the high road to fortune. The truth is, there is no business so precarious. Every theatre but two in New York, this season, has lost money, aszd those two have only sa.ed themselves by lowering the prices in accord tnce with the times. The price for seats in theatres has been for someyears $1.50, and the system of selling the entire house put that up to $2.50. This was all well enough when peo ple were snaking money at every turn, but now that the tile is running the other way the mana— gers have found it difficult to keep their houses half full. The Grand Opera House reduced prices thirty per cent., and it has had good business right along. An enterprising company of musi cians, all first class, are giving concerts at Cooper Institute for 10 cents admission, and the hall isn't big enough to hold the people, and they are mak ing money. The lesson is obvious—with the return to gold everything must come down to a gold basis. The extravagant actresses and aotors must play for less than $250 a week, rents must come down, and the prices of admission likewise. The war is over. OAKEY {TALI., Oakey Hall, Tammany Politician, Author, Actor, Lawyer, and almost everything else, who left New York about six months ago, between two days, and who has managed to keep himself in the newspa pers ever since, returned yesterday as mysterious ly as be went. He says that the interval has been to him like a dream, he intimate that he has been partially insane, but that his brain is now clear, his mind unclouded, and that he shall go on and fulfill his destiny. Ile gives no reason for his going, and none for his coming, but people guess. The well-posted say that it was not fear of the Tweed investigation, but that in short, there was not only one, but two, women in the case. What ever may have been the cause of his escapade, it has lost him all the standing he ever had. The city regards him now as but one degree above Count Joannes, and a long way below Geo. Francis Train. It would have been better for his reputa tion if he had died abroad. Ile is of no further use here. SMALL 110111)s, The recent failure of so many Savings Banks, and the terrible condition of Life Insurance, has put the poor who have work and who, therefore, have made savings, into a quandry as to what they shall do with their money. There are thous ands who have fifty or a hundred dollars who are keeping it hoarded, fearing to deposit it any where. A movement has been inaugurated here, which I hope will spread all over the country; viz.:—To have the new four per cent, loan popularized. An association is memorializing the authorities to have bonds issued in denominations of twenty-five dollars, registered and made payable to order, so that in case of robbery or destruction, there could be no loss. They argue that it would not only afford a convenient and safe means of saving for those who are saving, but that it would be a healthy help to those who never have saved to commence. One employer who has forty men and women at work, told me that his 1 Duple had not less than one thousand dollars hidden in the bot tom of their trunks, all of which would go into bonds in an hour, if they could be issued in de nominations small enough to be within their reach As they can be converted into cash anywhere, at a moment's notice, there can be no doubt that an enormous amount of them would at once be taken. The idea is worth discussion, TUE STRIKRS, For once a strike has the appearance of a suc cess. Several cigar manufacturers have acceeded to the demands of their operatives and have re sumed work. The strikers managed this very adroitly, They organized supplies beforehand to keep those out of work in comparative comfort, and they succeeded in gaining much outside sym pathy, which was a powerful help to them, not only in eking out their material strength, but in moulding public opinion. But behind their pres ent triumph stalks a grim dread. It is rumored that a number of employers have combined, and have contracted in San Francisco for an immense number of Chinese cigar -makers, who are, it is said, already on the way hither. If this is so, good-bye, cigar -makers. The nimble-fingered celestial can roll as much as any other man, and he can live upon nothing, The cigar-makers are troubled at this prospect, and are awaiting devel opments anxiously. DUTTEkt ONCC zone, The long disputed butter question came up again this week. A dealer was arrested for sell ing oleo-margarine for butter, without having the word "oleo-margarine" stamped on the tub, In the course of the trial a great many interesting facts came out. It was asserted that all the but ter that came to this market was worked over and colored to suit the fancy of the market. Liver pool wanted a white butter, and London a yellow. They both get it, out of the same lots, annatto making the difference. Oleomargarine it was asserted was as sweet and wholesome as butler, and only an expert could detect the difference. In fact the best dairymen of the country were buying it in large quantities to mix with their milk, and scarcely any butter that comes to New York is free from it. One dealer testified that it was better than butter, for it never becomes rancid, or in any way strong. The offending dealer was dismissed with a caution to be very particular in branding his olemargarine, so that the word could be seen of men and women also. THE BEECHER PEOPLE Henry Ward Beecher is lecturing on the unde sirability of riches at $5OO a night, Tilton is liv ing away from his family, on Second Avenue, gettin , * b ready to do the saline thing, at about one fourth the money, and Frank Moulton, the real sufferer, is rebuilding his shattered fortunes, as the agent of Ashton's Liverpool salt, which he is introducing to the attention of dairymen. The great scandal is very dead. PIET Eto. Morton no More. CLOSE OF AN EVENTFUL LIFE-THE LAST HOURS OF THE SENATOR. INDIANAPOLIS, November I.—Senator Morton died at half-past five o'clock this evening. About noon Mrs. Morton and her sons, by her request, were left alone with the Senator for about an hour. Before 5 o'clock it became evident that he had entered upon his last hours upon earth. He had rested the greater portion of the day in a half lying and half sit ting position. As he grew weaker the support ing pillows were withdrawn so that he lay prone upon the bed. The silence in the room was unbroken, except by an occasional ques tion to the dying man. Once, when the Sen ator exclaimed, "I am dying," his sister-in law, Mrs. Holloway, inquired, "You are not afraid to die, Oliver?" He indicated no by swaying his head. Soon after a similar ex clamation, question and answer passed be tween him and Dr. Thompson. At ten min utes past 5 o'clock he exclaimed, "I am dy ing ; I am worn out," and these were his last words. From this on it was difficult to dis cover that life remained. On the doctor's an nouncement, "Ile is going," the gaze of his wife and sons became fixed on the face of the dying husband and father, with now and then a piteous look of inquiry towards the doctor, until his further announcement, "It is over." The widow clasped her sons to her, exclaim ing quietly, but in tones never to be forgotten, "My darling boys." The friends withdrew, leaving them for a time, when they were tend erly led from the room. E. F. Kunkel's Bitter Wine of Iron.

DIPTTIERIA.—We find the following cure for diptheria published in a number of our exchanges, and as this dreaded disease is likely to make its appearance in our milst at any time, we transfer it to our columns, and where a physician cannot be called in at once we advise a trial of the remedy : "Take a teaspoonful of brimstone and stir it with the finger into a wine glass of water, and use it as a gargle, it will destroy the fungus in the throat which is the cause of diptheria. The finger mixes it more thoroughly with water than a spoon can do. Let the gargle be swallowed. Or the the sulphur may be blown through a quill into the throat, and after the fungus has shrunken, then use the gargle. In haling the fumes of sulphur, spread a spoonful at a time on hot coals will also kill the fungus. Brimstone kills every species of fungus iu man, beast or plant in a very few minutes. This remedy is simple and harmless, and is said to be effective. Salt water is also a very good gargle for the throat." CLARKI'S TOOTH ACHE DROPS cure instantly New To-Day. WIDE AWAKE FOR 1578. The popular estimation of Wide Awake is well summed up in what a distinguished literary gen tleman said :—" The other magazines lie on the ta ble fresh and clean, while WIDE AWAKE is read to tatters."

No house in the trade confines itself so exclusively to the first class manufacturers. Indeed, a 7 ' and CARBOLINE is prepared from they oil as it flows from Nature's great:: chemical laboratory, by a peculiar pro cess invented by a practical chemist, who ; 1 1 was led to experiment upon Petroleum as a hair restorative by reading an inter-7 eating account written by Mr. Geo. lior ton, resident of the frontier town of to Kiachta in Russia. Mr. Horton had tried with extraordinary success the use b of Petroleum upon cattle and horses that had lost their hair on being affected MI with the cattle plague. The idea was et P. suggested to him through a very curious = circumstance, namely, he recollected z that a former servant at the hotel, prema turely bald, had a singular habit when trimming the lamps, of wip ing his petro is - leum-besmeared hands upon the. scanty 0 locks still remaining to him. Three months from his first appearance at the me hotel he was the subject of general re- 0. mark, his head being covered with an abundance of FINE (MOONY BLACK HAIR. r Such a wonderful change in so short a time Mr. Horton deemed of sufficient ;.-• importance to make public to the world. From practical experiments ``"' our chemical friend became convinced = that Petroleum if properly prepared izi/ and freed from all irritating and 'o‘.. illuminating substances had the remark-' S Q able property cf restoring the hair to its natural state and color; still further ex- = periments were necessary to produce an article combining the medicinal qualities of the oil in an agreeable form and oder, which renders it susceptible of being handled as daintily as the famous Eau de 7 1 Cologne; he now presents to the public without fear of contradic tion as the best restorative and beautifier t of the hair the world has ever produced.
