DIRECTOR OF TILE POOR
JACOB ILAFFLY, of Peon township,
JURY COMMISSIONER
RICHARD WILLS, of Warriorswark
11EMENITIE11, the election is on Tuesday
next.
DON'T fail to give Richard Wills a
boost for Jury Commissioner.
VOTE for Jacob Hanly and a judicious
management of Alms Ilouse affairs.
GET out the vote. Don't let a Repub
lican stay away from the polls on Tuesday
next.
RAIN or shine go to the polls on Tues
day, and take your Republican neighbor
with you.
THE funeral dirge of the Greenbackers
is now being sung by their leaders. And
it is very weak.
REPUBLICAN coons are already rattling
their chains, as if they want out to feast
on Democratic "chicks."
LET there be no uncertain sound from
the Republicans of Huntingdon county on
Tuesday next. Thn't scratch.
CLEAR the way for 1830, and get out a
good Republican vote on Tuesday nest.
Vote for Butler, Hafily and Wills.
MARK the prediction—the Republican
journals of this State will be illustrated
with coons, chucks," and cannons next
week.
THE Greenbackers are already scatter
ing. We say let them scatter• now, for
after Tuesday next there won't be many of
them to scatter.
LET every Republican in the county
vote for Butler, Hely and Wills. Their
election will be of advantage to the tax
payers of the State and county.
THE Board of Pardons have recommend
ed a commutation of the death sentence
in the case of John O'Neill, the Mollie
Maguire who was to have been hanged on
the 6th of November.
TILE Rag Baby was printed in green
ink up to the time of the Ohio and lowa
elections, since then, however, it has ap
peared in black, mourning for the death of
its party in those States.
RAIN or shine, go to the polls on Tues
day and vote a solid Republican ticket.
Onr candidates are all good men and true,
and should receive the support of every
Republican in the county.
JACOB HAFFLY, our nominee for Di.
rector of the Poor, is as honest as the sun.
His neighbors place thousands of dollars
in his hands for collection without asking
bun one penny's worth of security. Vote
for honest Jacob Haft.
OUR old friend, Jacob Hadiy , esq., of
Marklesbnrg was in town one day last
week, looking after voters enough to elect
him Director of the Poor. The 'Squire is
a good citizen and, we have no doubt, will
make a good officer if elected.—..ift. Union
Times.
THE people of Ashland, Schuylkill
county, are highly elated over the fact
that their town has been selected as the
site for the building of the Miners' Hos
pital, a State institution. Our friend,
Hon. J. Irvin Steel, of the Advocate, an
nounces their good fortune in a two•cal
umn displayed article.
Tan body of Geo. Burr, who accom•
panied Prof. Wise in his fatal ascension
from St. Louis, on the last Sunday in
September, has been found in the lake,
near Miller's station, lowa. The features
were beyond recognition, but the mono
gram G. B. on the collar button, and the
initial B. on the clothing lead to the iden
tification of the deceased. Prof. Wise and
the balloon are still missing.
THE Harrisburg Telegraph says Barr
will poll at least a third behind the Demo.
cratie vote in Centre and Clearfield coun
ties, and no, sincere effort that the Democ
racy can now make to save him will aid
his prospects. The reason for this is
Barr's bad name—the general unfavorable
character which the Barr family has in
Clearfield county especially, where Senator
Wallace and his friends for years defamed
the Pittsburgh clique, which always op
posed him. These curses, like young
chickens, have now come home to roost.
HERE is a specimen of Zach Chandler's
political oratory : "Take the largest ship
that floats our waters, put on her mast
beads the flags of every Southern State
that rebelled, and over all surmount the
stars and bars, and she may sail around the
world and she will not get the salute of
even a pop-gun. Take the smallest ship
that floats upon our waters, put on her
stern the words "United States Cutter,"
and there is not a man-of-war nor a fort of
any nation on God's footstool which will
not give her a national salute."
OUR neighbor of the _Monitor is unfair
when he charges that the Riot Claims bill
of last winter was a Republican measure,
simply because W. H. Kemble, a promi
nent Republican, labored for its passage.
Because Daniel 0. Barr, the Democratic
candidate for State Treasurer, was alike
prominent in trying to secure the passage
of the bill we might say that it was a
Democratis measure, but we would be
uttering an untruth. Republicans and
Democrats alike worked for the bill, and
in no sense was it a political measure. Had
it been a Republican measure, as charged
by the Monitor, certainly the "cat would
not have been let out of the meal tub" by
such a prominent Republican as Charles S.
Wolfe, of Union county, at whose instanca
the investigation was brought about.
EVERY Republican voter in the county
should determine to cast his vote on Tues
day next. Because the candidates are few,
and the offices to be filled unimportant,
should not keep a single Republican from
the polls. It is conceded that our candi
date for State Treasurer will be elected,
Set every vote added to his majority will
be a rebuke to the party which has proven
itself an enemy to the country. Our local
candidates are men of strict integrity, and
well qualified for the positions for which
they have been named, and it is the duty
of every Republican in the county to go
to the polls on Tuesday next and cast a
solid ballot for Butler, Hafily and Wills.
Come, friends, roll up an old fashioned
majority for the whole ticket.

It will not do to say that the con
an unimportant one, that there arc
lint few county officers to elect, or that it
nit ;.ely a question of men rather than of ;
princip;.... We have two county offices to
till, see to none other in point of im
portance. The proper management of the
affairs of our county Alms House is a
subject which is of vital interest to every
tax-payer in the county, while the judicious
selection ofjurors is one which largely of
accts the administration of justice and the
preservation of the rights of every citizen,
and the candidates presented for these
p_ on the Republican ticket are
amply qualified for the positions and in
every respect unexceptionable men, well
worthy of your influence and support.
But the contest is notoue ofa partisan char
actor only, no mere scramble for the spoils
of office ; it is fraught with issues of vital
interest to the entire country. It is the
great battle between right and wrong. The
party which saved the country in the day
of trial is arrayed against the party that
sought to destroy it. The question now
agitating the country on one hand is which
shall have control of the destinies of the
nation, the men whose loyalty, patriotism
and valor saved the government, or those
who fought for four years to destroy it;
whether the party of law and order, of
justice, humanity, and equal rights shall
administer the affairs of the government,
or whether it shall be remanded into the
hands of the party of violence, intimida
tion and murder, which first sought to de
stroy th.s government, and now seeks to
maintain its authority by the shot gun
policy, and the inauguration of a reign of
terror. Again, it is a contest of principle,
of honesty against dishonesty. The men
who are in favor of making good the
pledges of the nation are arrayed against
the repudiators; the advocates of honest
money are arrayed against the friends of
inflation as a financial policy. These are
some of the issues which are to be met and
decided oa Tuesday next, and evcry vote
cast against our State and county ticket is
an endorsement of one or the other, or
both of those parties. A full Republican
vote in the county will insure the election
of our ticket by a respectable majority,
and restore our county to its old status in
the party, while the difference of a few in
each district may:be the means of defeat.
Our enemies, ever on the alert, are relying
upon the indifference or supineness of the
Republicans, and expect by this means to
steal a march on us. Let us disappoint
them. Let every man do his duty, by
going to the polls and elating his vote f r
Butler, 'billy and Wills, and thus sealing
his devotion to the true, honored princi
pies of the Republican party, which is the
natural friend of the workingman, the ad
vocate of honest money, the payment of
the national debt, and of free speech, free
labor, and a free ballot. Do not fail to be
at the polls, and see that your Republican
neighbor is there also. Close up the lines,
push on the column, and march forward to
the music of the Union, and we will have
glorious news for you next week.
HAS IT COME TO THIS ?
reporter of the Pittsburgh Leader
has been interviewing Daniel 0. Barr, the
Democratic candidate for State Treasurer,
and in its issue of October 13th the L-,ad
er publishes the following letter which
Mr. Barr admitted he had sent to the
Catholic clergy throughout the Common
wealth:
"DEMOCRATIC STATE COMMITTEE,
Cur. Fifth Avenue and Wood Street.
PITTSBURGH, Sept. 2. 1879.
Reveiend and Dear Sir:
....
I desire a list of pew holders and adult male
attendants of the congregation under your charge,
with their Postoffice address. If you could hare
them copied and returned to me in the endorsed
envelope, I would esteem it a very great favor.
Very truly, your obedient servant.
DANIEL O'CONNELL BARR."
This is, says the West Chester Reput
lican, the first known instance in the his
tory of Pennsylvania politics where any
candidate for public favor has directly
appealed for his election to a particular
church. It should, and we have no doubt
will, meet with the condemnation of the
people.
This proves beyond a doubt the allega
tion made against Barr, that his nomina
tion had been secured through sectarian
influence, and worse than that, if it were
possible to be worse, he is now engaged in
the disreputable business of seeking to
gain his election in the same manner.
When American politics have become so
demoralized and the aim of free govern
ment subverted, so that unscrupulous men,
ambitious to attain place and power, resort
to the despicable means of appealing to
such au influence to advance their ends,
there is just cause for alarm. Mr. Barr
will not profit by this cunningly devised
plan, it will react upon its perpetrator
with a storm of indignation such as he
little dreams of. There are members of
his party who will spurn such a piece of
desperate business, and refuse to lend
their support to any man who would stoop
so low as to engage in a scheme contrary
to the spirit and teachings of an untram
meled, uninfluenced ; free, popular govern
meat of the people. Let politics have its,
own legitima;:e sphere, and he who would
try the dangerous experiment of diverting
it from its lawful channel, stamps him
unworthy the trust of the people. The
people will pass judgment upon this most
pernicious departure from the old standard
and only rightful method, and Daniel
O'Connell Barr will be taught in thunder
tones of reproof what a free and independ
cut people think of his attempt to dishonor
the political coda and true aim of a Re
publican form of government.
HONEST AND TRUSTWORTHY.
A large number of persons, farmers and
others, in the neighborhood of Markles
burg and Penn township, recently sold
their property and remove I to the Wrest,
and it is a fact worthy of note that they
have left their notes and accounts, to the
amount of thousand of dollars, for collec
tion with Jacob Ilaffly, esq , our candidate
for Poor Director, without any security
further than his own word of honor and
their own parsonal knowledge of the man
as to honesty, integrity and business qual
ifications. We simply mention this in
order that the public may be advised of
the estimation in which our candidate is
held by his neighbors and those who know
him, as perhaps the best recommendation
fur honesty and capability is the testimony
of those who are intimately acquainted
with him. The man in whom his neigh
bors have such implicit reliance can safely
be trusted with the financial interests of
the county, and we arc much mistaken if
the people do not say so on Tuesday nest.
A BENGAL tigress that escared from a
P. R. R. car while in transit to Philadel
phia, was shot and killed at Torresdale,
near Philadelphia, on Friday last. The
animal was the property of Mr. Forepough
and weighed 205 pounds.
