The Huntingdon Journal. J . . A. NASH, HUNTINGDON, PENN'A -.-....-,.i FRIDAY, Circulation LARGER than any other Paper in the Juniata Valley. THE LegiAature will adjourn to day, (Friday,) after having been in session one hundred and fifty days, the full time for which they can draw pay. BLAIR COUNTY will have two represen tatives on the committee which is to pro ceed to California to welcome Gen. Grant. Senator Lemon and Representative Hewitt having been appointed. PRESIDENT HAYES has again put his foot down on the revolutionists in Con- gress, and in his message, printed in full on the first page of to-day's JOURNAL, he gives good and sufficient reasons for ex ercising the veto power. GEN. JAMES SHIELDS, late United States Senator from Missouri, died sud denly, at Ottumwa, lowa, on Sunday night. He was enjoying his usual good health up to within thirty minutes of his death. He died of heart disease. FSNLON was opposed to appropriating money to build a penitentiary at Hunting. don, but was in favor of giving the P. R. R Co., $4,000,000 (less divvy) it was not bgally entitled to. "An honest man is the noblest work of God."—Jauzstown, Tribune. AT NEWARK, a small village in Ver mont, a few days ago, nine children were poisoned by drinking water from a brook stream which had been polluted by the carcasses of a horse and several sheep being thrown into it. Seven of them died soon after drinking the water, their bodies be coming putrid, and demanding immediate burial. THE Ohio Republicans, on Wednesday of last week, nominated the fallowing ticket : Governor, Hon. Charles Foster ; Lieut. Governor, Gen. Andrew Hicken looper ; Judge of the Supreme Court, Hon. W. W. Johnson ; Attorney General, Geo. K. Nash ; Auditor of the State, John T. Ogleree; State. Treasurer, James Furney ; Commissioner of Public Works, James Fullington. The greatest harmony and good feeling prevailed during the sittings of the Convention, and the party goes in to the contest confident of success. Mr. Foster accepted the nomination in a ring ing speech of considerable length. Hort. M. S. QUAY, Secretary of the Commonwealth, testified before the Riot Corruption Investigating Committee, one day last week, stating that no man had au thority to use his name in connection with corrupt means alleged to have been used to secure the passage of the Pittsburgh Riot claims bill. Mr. Quay thought it due to his position that all the testimony cart ing a suspicion on him.should be stricken from the proceedings, as it was merely heressy ; but as that portion of the tes timony bad already been printed, it could not be done. His hands are clean cf any complicity in the passage of this bill by unfair means. WE sympathize with our old-time friend and co-laborer in the editorial tread mill, David Over, esq., of the Hollidaysburg Register, in his defeat for the nomination for the office of sheriff of Blair county. The Republicans of that county did a wrong thing by refusing to give our old friend that nomination. He has labored all his life for the success of the party, and no man in its ranks was more deserv ing of recognition ; but it seems that the Republicans of our daughter Blair are but following out the example taught them by old mother Huntingdon, the more deserv ing a man is, and the harder he labors for the party, the less likely be is to receive any favor from it ; the drones come to the surface and carry off the emoluments. As a general thing editors are the hardest worked and poorest paid class of men in existence. They are expected to do the dirty work of the party, and very often are asked to champion the cause of men for office who are no more qualified for the position sought than a hog is fit to preach the Gospel. It is about time that editors give notice that they have rights which parties are bound to respect. REPORT OF THE RIOT COM MITTEE. The Riot Bribery Investigating Com mittee made their report to the House of Representatives at Harrisburg, on Thurs day of last week. They find W. F. Rum berger, of Armstrong county, Emil J. Pet roff and George F. Smith, both of Phila delphia, guilty of violation of section 30 of article 3 of the Constitution, and the first section of the act of the Legislature passed April 29, 1874. They also implicate with them the following persons who are not members of the Legislature : W. H. Kemble, Charles B. Salter, Jesse R. Crawford, A. W. Leisinring, and Christian Long, and charge them with being guilty of violating the same provisions of the Constitution and laws. The report is signed by four of the members. Dr. Gatchell was not in Har risburg but telegraphed from Lancaster that he could not be there before Monday evening. Gatchell's name is therefore not signed to the report, which was pre pared by Mr. Wolfe. Two other members, Mr. Sherwood of York, and Mr. Clark of Philadelphia, against whom there was some testimony, have not been refered to in the report, for the reason that there was but one witness against each of them. Against the others there were two or more. The House met on Monday evening, when Mr. Wolfe, of Union, offered a reso lution expelling Petroff from that body. After an exciting debate, which lasted over an hour, the House refused to adopt the res )lution of expulsion by a vote of 98 to 88. H. A. Lamberson, esq., and Hon. A. J. Herr, appeared as counsel for Petroff, while Hon. B. L. Hewitt cham pioned the cause of the State. Great ex citement prevailed during the pendency of the vote. A CYCLONE'S WORK. Many Persons Killed and Injured. Editor. A STORM OF UNPRECEDENTED VIOLENCE -SEVERAL TOWNS RUINED AND THEIR INHABITANTS OVERWHELMED WITH (1111 EF-•WOHLE FAMILIES OBLITERATED -SEVERAL TOWNS WRECKED. A dispatch of Saturday night from Kan sas City, Mo., says : During the past forty eight hours the section of country within a radius of seventy five miles of Kansas City has been visited by most furious storms of wind and rain, similar to the terrible cyclone at Richmond, Ray county, in the summer of 1877, when over forty persons were killed. As the details of the destruction of property and the loss of life come in it is evident that the disaster of to-day is more widespread than that of two years ago. The cyclone passed over several flourishing towns, literally wreck ing them, and leaving traces of its tre mendous power in leveled habitations, de stroyed public buildings and uprooted trees. Marshall county, Kansas. has suf fered most this time. Its chief town is Marysville, which is situated on the line of the St. Joseph and Denver City rail road. The central branch of the Union Pacific railroad runs through the county, having a terminus at Waterville. Along the line of the road there are many thri ving towns, the largest of which are Frank fort, Elizabeth and Irving. The Big Blue river, a tributary of the Kansas river, runs through the centre of the county. It began to storm on Thursday. At about six o'clock last evening the rain suddenly ceased. A large, sullen looking cloud was noticed just east of the town of Frankfort, on the line of the central branch of the Union Pacific railroad, west of Atchison. The cloud was funnel shaped, and seemed to increase in size as it moved along until it reached the town, when it seized everything in its embrace like some terrible monster, gathering up houses, barns, live stock and human beings, twist. ing huge timbers and trees like reeds, and leaving death and destruction in its wake. Four persons were killed at this point. The cyclone then passed east and struck the town of Fulton, unroofing sixteen houses, tearing up immense trees and kill ing nine more people. Among the build ings destroyed were the Presbyterian church, school buildings, postoffice and two elevators ; also the ninety foot span of the iron bridge across the blue river, the iron rods and girders being twisted like pipe stems. The storm spent its fury in Larene Lake, its path being nearly half a mile wide and easily discernible by up rooted trees and demolished fences. At about the same hour the town of Lee's Summit, on the Missouri and Pacific railroad, thirty miles east of Kansas City, was also visited, and as in the above case, the cyclone was noticed fully ten minutes before it reached the town. The day had been sultry, and just previous to the ar rival of the cyclone the air was filled with electricity. As the dark rolling mass of clouds approached very close to the earth, the people left their houses in alarm, but the element of destruction suddenly turned to the left, barely touching the town proper. In the suburbs a number of houses were levelled. The path made by the storm was about three hundred yards wide The cyclone traveled in a direct line only at a rate of ten miles an hour ; in the circle it probably exceeded sixty miles an hour. FROM THE HUB.—There is perhaps no tonic offered to the people that possesses as much real intrinsic value as the Hop Bitters. Just at this season of the year, when the stomach needs an appetizer, or the blood needs purifying, the cheapest and best remedy is Hop Bitters. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, don't wait until you are prostrated by a disease that may take months for you to recover in.—Boston Globe. may3o-2t, _ _ _ The National Complaint. Dyspepsia is the national complaint. Almost every other man or woman you meet has it, and the result is that the number of pseudo remedies for it is as numerous as Pharaoh's host. They are for the most part worthless. There is, however, a searching eradicant et' this distressing and obdurate malady, one whose genuine merits long since raised it to a foremost place among the staple medicines of America. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters extir pates dyspepsia with greater certainty and promptitude than any known remedy, and is a most genial invigorant, appetizer and aid to secretion. These are not empty assertions, as thousands of our country men and women who have experienced its effects are aware, but are backed up by irrefragable proofs repeatedly laid before the public. The Bitters also pro mote a regular habit of body and give a healthful stimulus to the urinary organs. june6-Im. _ _ _ DANDELION AND CROCUS.—The tint of the first crocus, with its cup of . gold or the bloom of a dandelion in June, is that imparted to butter, whether grass made or not, by the Perfected Butter Color of Wells, Richardson & Co., Burlington, Vt.
