Unanimous Endorsement of Blaine I Huntingdon County a Unit for the Statesman of the Pine Tree State 1 The Republican County Committee of this county met in Convention, pursuant to a call of the Chairman, on Monday last, at 2 o'clock, P. u , an unusually full dole gation being in attendance, and after or ganizing proceeded to the selection of a Setrafkrial delegate to represent ihe dis trict in the coming State Convention at Harrisburg. Major James McPherran, of Alexandria, and John W. Mattern, esq., of Huntingdon, were placed in nomination and balloted for, and on counting the vote it was ascertained that it was a tie vote, each gentleman having received twenty eight votes. Before proceeding to a second balloting it was, at the suggestion of D. Blair, eFq., resolved that both gentlemen be selected to go to Harrisburg as delegates having one vote each. The following persons were placed in nomination for Representative Delegates : Joseph G. Isenberg, csq., of Huntingdon; P. H. Bence, esq., of Three Springs ; M. S. Lytle, esq., of Huntingdon ; Samuel H. Irvin, esq , of Huntingdon. The names of Messrs. Lytle and Irvin were subsequently withdrawn, and Messrs. Isenberg and Bence were declared tl , e choice of the committee by acclamation. The following resolution was offered and adopted : Resolved. That we hereby heartily endorse and recommend the nomination of John A. Lemon, of Blair county, as the candidate for Auditor Gen eral, at the coming State Convention, and that our delegates will act accordingly in supporting and voting to secure, so far as they can do, for him the said nomination. After disposing of some other matters of minor importance, it was suggested that the members of the committee give expression to their views on the subject of the Presi dential nominee, in order that the delegates might be better enabled to carry out the wishes of the people in Convention . D. Blair, esq., of Huntingdon, offered a few remarks by way of suggestion, in the course of which he said that the great and absorbing question in the minds of all now was in regard to the Presidential election. [Cries of Blaine, Blaine!] This he said was a question on which the committee ought to take a vote here to-day. While he had entire confidence in the gentlemen elected as delegates, and believed they would act in view of the best interests of the party, yet still he was not entirely sat isfied with the way in which things are being done in regard. to this matter. He did not wish, he said, to find fault, but thought there had been too much haste manifested in the matter, and believed that it was important to have an expression of opinion to-day in Convention, in regard to tie preference of each individual member, so that the delegates when they went to Harrisburg would be able to know the sentiment of the people of the county, and proposed that the Chairman be requested to call the names of the delegates, and that each one indicate his preference as to the coming Presidential candidate. [Cries of vote by acclamation.] The question was finally put by the Chairman by a rising vote, when it was found the committee were unanimous for Blaine, without one dissenting vote. and withont so much as naming any other can didate. The attendance, as we said, was very full, and the members of the committee repre rented very fully the sentiment of the peo pie, so that our assertion of last week that eight oat of every ten of the Republicans of the county were for Blaine, was more than sustained, and the delegates, after this manifestation of the sentiment of the people, will not go to the State or Nation al Convention uninstructed as to the wishes of the Republicans of Huntingdon county. Tux latest news from Washington con cerning the Curtin-Yocum elec ion con test is to the effect that the case will be remanded back to the people of the dis trier for their decision, at an election to be held for this purpose. This is certainly a novel way of deciding a contested seat, but, after all, we believe it is the fairest way of getting at it. If the election goes back to the people it is hard to tell what the result will be. Curtin is very un popular with the people, and had Mr. Yo cum, during the time he occupied the seat, acted with the Republican party, and not played toady to the Democracy for the purpose of retaining his seat, he would lay the ex Governor out stark and cold in the coming election. But his course in Con gress won for him the contempt of both Republieaos and honest bemocrats, and when he and the apostate Curtin again go before the people the hottest voters will feel very much like the old woman did when her worthless husband was engaged in a r0n.91 and tumble fight with the bear, they w 3n't care a d—n which one whips." "AN HONEST MAN IS THE NO BLEST WORK OF GOD." Editor. Mr BLANK, of Warriorstnarli, To El UNTINGDON JOU N AL, Dr To subscription to JOURNAL from Oct. 1. 1873 to January 16, 1880—Gyrs and 3+ mos. $15.58. Feeling that we h?,(1 furnished M r. flank a paper a sufficient length of time without receiving pay for it, we p'aeed his account in the hands of our attorney for collection. That gcntletnan Fen t him a polite note, stating the amount of his in debtedness, and giving him a certain length of time in which to make payment before suit would be instituted. In an ewer to that note Mr. Blank writes a "flew lines," which we copy as near like the orig inal as it is pos,ible for us to do, as fol lows : sur --- dear fir i send you a flew lines in re gardS to that acount that mister nash left with you tel him, to not Send me the paprar no longer if he intends to get hii pay by law hecan pay the cost hisself i wont pay it from Youres There's honesty for you. For six years and a little over three months this man has been receiving the JOURNAL—but that he read it to little advantage is evident from the style of his letter—at our cx pew, and now when we want him to pay us he flatly refuses to do so. We don't know what some people would call such conduct, but for our part we consider it the basest kind or scoundrelism. We would entertain just as high an opinion of Mr. Blank if he had come down to Huntingdon, entered our residence, at midnight, and stolen $lB 58 from cur pockets—provided be could have found that amount, which is not probable if we had many patrons like him. We look upon this fellow as a scoundrel and a sneak, who lives off tie labor of his fellows with out giving them any remuneration for their toil. He is a professional "dead beat," and we think the best thing the citizens of Warriorsmark could do with him would be to send him to the "barrens," just over the line in Centre county, or turn him out in the mountain above the Furnace, where he could enjoy, without money and without prise, the air and water nature has so lavishly furnished, and let him there live and die unwept, unhonored and unsung. BLAINE TH E IDOL OF HIS PEOPLE. The New York 7 ritune says that the affectionate enthusiasm with which the Maine Republicans greeted Senator Blaine on Saturday, when he made his first public appearance in a considerable time, was a type of the admiration with which his recent course must be regarded by the whole country. It is a fact worthy of public attention that in this whole Maine business Mr. Blaine bas exhibited the very qualities which his enemies have always 0 .:17 I:id not possess. The country ► s been rep atedly assured that he was a brilliant debater, but a poor cow: .or ; thatin was a good man to stir up th ; muses on the stump, but lacked the moderation (and dullness) necessary to a statesman ; that he was too radical, that he was reckless, that he lacked conservatism and caution. It will do no harm to direct attention to the fact that moderation, eau tion, conservatism, have been the most conspicuous features of the whole Repub lican campaign in Maine ; as carried through under Mr Blaine's leadership. He has kept cool in a place where almost any other man would have lost his wits. Ile has not taken one false step, and his campaign for popular rights has moved steadily forward with the precision of the machinery, impressing the country at every advance with the justice of the Re publican cause, and forcing his opponents steadily backward. It is not an exagger ation to say that his leadership has com bined the highest political skill with the soundest judgment in statesmanship. This has been done too when public feeling was at a white heat. A very little spark would have kindled war in Maine, and the fact that there had been no war is probably due more to Mr. Blaine than to any other man THE Harrisburg Telegraph contends that the question now at issue in Maine is one of law vs. anarchy. It says that Gar celon, a demagogue, acting at the sugges Lion of interested partisans not citizens of Maine, took advantage of technicalities in the election laws to disfranchise thousands of legal voters, forming a majority in certain election districts. His act was that of a knave. He assumed powers with which the law did not clothe him, and usurped the authority of the judiciary to give color and force to an act which, as Executive, he had no legal right to per form. And now when the whole question "rand and illegality, of defect in the performance of certain duties devolved on election officers, is referred to the conics the Democracy which urged Garcelon on to his act, and who were invested by that issue with questionable power, deny the right of the courts to exercise the fungi tions which the Constitution invested them with. Could anything be mere monstrous ? First the Executive usurps the power of the courts. Next, when cited to appear in court hello° the highest tribunal in Maine, its decrees are rejected, and the whole machinery of the State Government upset to insure success to a political fraud. Thus the issue in Maine is now one of law vs. anarchy. When will this end. as a precedent, if anarchy triumphs in MAine ? THE President has made the following nominations for supervisors of census in Pennsylvania. First district—Thonns 11. Sherwood. Second district—Joseph Sam son. Third district—Edward A. llowell. Fourth district—William Schell. Fifth district—John M. Clark. Sixth district— William Hayes. Seventh district—J. Simpson Africa. Eighth district—How. and R. Miller. Ninth district—Alexander Murdock. Tenth district—Daniel S. Rich mond. Huntingdon county is included in the Seventh district, of which Mr. Africa is Supervisor. THE commission appointed by the last legislature to open and count tl►e vote cast for State Treasurer at the November election, met at. Harrisburg, on Tuesday, and discharged that duty. The result is as follows : Butler, 280,153; Barr, D., 221,715 ; Sutton, G., 27,207; Rich ardson, P., 3,219.

This is the only Almanac pub lished in the United States that has a National reputation. The eclectic princi ple lies at the base of a thoroughly digest ed Almanac. THE TRIBUNE ALMANAC does not have encyclopxdic aims. It is a common sense manual of American poli tics intended for actual use by a practical public. The general Table of Contents of the present issue will be familiar to the public. After the calendar pages and astronomical observations is placed a digest of the pub lic laws of the regular and extra sessions of Congress, with summaries of the party platforms adopted in 187$ and the Con stitutional Amendments enacted and sanc tioned in various States. The chapter on the elections of United States Senators is next in order, and is followed by a table of the electoral vote for Presinent from 1864 and lists of the principal executive, departmental, diplomatic and judical offi cers. Among the Government, ciuner cial and miscellaneous statistics are tables relating to railroad mileage and business, imports and exports, iron ship building since 1870, revenues and expenditures since 1875, appropriations for 1879 and 1880, immigration since 1870, coinage in 1879 and previous years, production of gold and silver in 1879, imports and ex ports of coin and bullion, National bank, currency and savings, bank tables, internal revenue statistics, public debt of the United States, and value in United States money of foreign coins. ~:iitiong other civil lists are the rolls of the XLVIth Congress, the Governors oldie States, and the State Government and County Clerks and s..lieritTi of New York. The body of the work is res._:rved for e!eetion returns from all tl:e Sta!es. THE ALMANAC iv.s been compiled by the lion Edward McPherson, a statisti cian of National reputation, who has con ducted the Hiles for several years. The price remaiw. as before—twenty live cents for each copy—with the usual discount to the trade. THE ALMANAC for HSU will be sent post-paid to any address in the United States, on receipt of the price, and all orders will receive immediate attention.

Enrrott .TouttNAl.:—As gate an amount of coal finds its way to your town from the mines in this immediate vicinity, an item may be of interest. The fatal explosion in a mine of the Penn (its Wad Company, near Irwin, December 29th, has tonna wide circulation in our papers. This was but a few miles creel here. As it was but 4A. at., few miners had yet enterei the fatal section. Only three wore killed, but had it been a little later the loss of life might have been much greater, there being about tau hundred teen sit boys employed in this wire. It is not known whether the accutuulated f,re-dauip was the result of accidental or malicious opening of the ventilating doors. There are a number of surmises. As these miners refused to enter the late strikes, by many it is supposed to have been done by neighboring miners. At the Coroner's inquest the jury rendered the following verdict: "Deceas ed came to their deaths by the effect of an explo sion olgas, caused by its accidental firing; accu mulation of which resulted from deranged ventila tion. caused either by the careless or malicious leaving open of doors in said wine, by persons unknown " The miners of Irwin and vicinity held a large mass meeting on January Ist, to consider the above explosion. A series of resolu tions were adopted, in which they indignantly denied that the miners bad any-thing to da with leaving open the mine doors. Secretary D. R. Jones, has written a lengthy charge, stating that the neglect is traceable to the neglect of the Penn Coal Co. The care may be carried to the courts. At the same meeting the question of wages was discussed at length. The result was a demand for 60 cents per ton over a three-fourths screen; drivers $2; and outside hands $1.50. After being out a few days their demands were accepted, and all went to work. The Penn miners received their advance first, but would not work until the same 'was given to thoseof the Westmoreland Company. After a general strike of this kind, the Companies employ all the men they can, thus giving each wan about ha!f his regular number of wagons to fill; so in the end little more is made than before. As the last demand has been so successful, coming bet a few weeks after their last success, the miners talk of demanding more. It is wonderful to see the dimensions the coal and coke trade in Pittsburgh C•ial Bed has as- Business is ever active and manufactur ing interests ever progressing. Why can't Hunt ingdon county develop her great iron wealth, and Huntingdon become the business centre her fa cilities say she should become? One of a geological turn of mind, with the time, can revel in the luseiliferous shales all over this section Carnegie & Co., ne•&r Larimer, use the slack or fine screenings front the Penn and W..st moreland Mines, which they wash before coking. These 140 ovens light up the hills round about for miles, and as I sit in my room the light is quite perceptible. Their coke is said to he equal to that of the Connellsville region. O. M. B. NOTICE.
