OUR sprightly little neighbor, the Xeics
entered upon its seventh volume on Thurs
day last. We wish it continued pmsperity.
"THE Yoang Republican, of Massachu
setts," by their res,olve that neither Blaine
nor Grant were fit fur President, wrote
themselves down complete asses.
ON account of financial trouble Camp

his newspaper enterprises
ON Wednesday morning or last week
"Hebe," an elephant belonging to Cooper

been born while in captivity•
EMILE J. PETROFF, one of the legisia
fire "roosters," who was purchasing agent
for votes tor the passage of the nine !pil
lion steal, was convicted last week, of
"corrupt solicitation," and is now awaiting
sentence on the 29th inst. He is now cer
tainly "under a cloud."
MR. PARNELL, who has been in this
country for some weeks past, agitating the
Irish land question, and gathering ducats
for the relief of the poor of Erin, sailed
for home, from New York, on Thursday
afternoon, with the promise that be would
soon return and resume his labors in this
country.
The Clarion Republican reached us last
week dressed in a new suit from top to
toe, looking as bright as a gold dollar We
are glad to note this evidence of its pros
perity: The adoption of the handsome head
rules, in place of the ginger bread ones,
heretofore used, adds matcrialy to the ap
pearanco of the paper.
HoP-Woo, a Cninese laundryman of
Brooklyn, has given two hundred and fifty
dollars for the relief of Ireland. Has that
persecutor of the race, the "Wild Ass" of
the sand lots of San Francisco, given as
much ? This generous act ought to make
Dennis Kearney go and push his head
against a circular saw when running at
lightning speed.
TEE Monitor says a girl baby was born
in Huntingdon on Monday of last week,
"which came into this world unlike the
generality of children from the fact that
it bad two lower teeth cut at its birth."

THE law-abiding citizens of San Fran
cisco have at last awakened to a sense of
their duty and have arrested Dennis Kear
ney for his unlawful harrangues to his il
literate followers. Soon after his arrest
his friends succeeded in securing his re
lease on bail, but his arrest is an evidence
that the people of that city are determined
to put a stop to the riotous howlings of
the mob. The reign of the hoodlum in
San Francisco is at an end, and Kearney
ism and Kallochism is on the decline.
HON. JOHN STILES : of Washington, D
C., who held an important position in the
Interior Department, died at his residence,
in thatcity, of pneumonia, on the Ist inst.,
in the sixty-seventh year of his age. Du
ring the years of 1873 4-5 Mr. Stiles was
the Washington correspondent of the Jo UR
NAL, and was also the writer of the able
editorial articles on the tariff which ap
peared in the columns of this paper during
the same period. He was a gentleman of
ability and we are sorry to hear of his
death.
Wu learn from the Harrisburg papers
that an application will be made to the
Board of Pardons for the pardon of Wm.
H. Kemble, Charles B Salter, Jesse It
Crawford, Emile J Petroff and Wm. F.
Rumberger, convicted in the Dauphin
county court of corrupt solicitation of leg
islators. These parties will not be sen
tented until the 29th inst , and we don't
see how the Board of Pardons can relieve
them of a sentence remaining to be pro
Pounced. It is thought that a special sea
don of the Board of Pardons will be call
ed for the 29th of March, the day upon
which they are to receive their sentence.
A DEMOCRATIC ELEPHANT.
By a motion from the Democratic side
of the Senate the Fitz John Porter bill
has been temporarily laid upon the table,
under the thin Boise that an appropriation
bill is pending in that body and the session
is getting old. The truth of the waiter
is the Porter bill has become an elephant
on their bands, and like the boy who won
oneof these animals at a 'Ale, they "don't
know what to do with him." They would
like to disp•ne of it in some way as quickly
as possible, but it will not do for them to
vote upon it while the arguments of Sen
ators Logan and Carpenter remain unan
awered, and it is plainly evident that the
longer the debate goes on the more op
portunity will be taken aivantage cf by
the Republicans to call up damaging and
disagreeable war remi niscences. The for
tification appropriation bill, in behalf of
which they all at once appear to be so
zealous, has been pending a month, and
would remain untouched for another month
only that it affords them an excuse for
temporarily dropping the Fitz John Por
ter case. Put them on the record.
A GOOD SUGGESTION.
The sue - getion of the Chatobershurg
Public Opinion, that each county in this
congressional district ad apt some plan by
which an expr:ssion of the voters can be
had ;'n their pieference, fhr the Presidency,
is a good one aid in counties that hold
their nominating conventions previous to
the meeting of the National Convention,
the suggestion c:zri be carried out, but in
our manly, lbr inatance, where the nom
inating convention is not held before the
sec uid week in August, over two months
later than the Chicago Convention, we
don't exactly see how we are to obtain the
sense of the voters. But this could be
obviated by holding the County Conven
am the latter part of May, and we don't
s-e that any valid objections could be
urged against an early convention This
seems to be a year or early conventions,
and as the State convention was called
:inusually early, the county conventions
throughout the S-.4te should be called in
time to give the voters, the rank and file
of the party, the men who have to do the
work of a campaign, an opportunity to ex
press their preference, thereby indicating
that they hive opinions of their own.
At a meeting of the Republican E.xecu
rive Committee of Franklin county, held
on Saturday last, a resolution was adopted
fixing the time for the holding of their
nominating convention for May 25th, and
another resolution, passed by the same body.
requests the voters,at the primary elections,
to express their preference for the Re
publican candidate for President of the
United States. If the other counties com
posing the district second the action of
Franklin, and call their conventions in
time to give the voters a chance to vote
for their favorite et.: didate, Iluntiugdon
should not be behind them. Inasmuch as
Editor,
it is gener.►lly conc2d that Huntingdon
county is almost a unit for Maine, there
should be some plan adopted by which Ur
voters could have an opportunity of ex
pressing their preference for the candidate
of their choice. We think it would give
satisfaction to the party to have an oppor •
tunity of this kind presented to them, and
we hope that the members of the County
Committee will give the matter some
thought, and adopt some method by which
every republican voter in the county will
have a chance to express his preference
for the Presidential candidate If an early
convention is necessary to do this, call it,
and if there is any other feasible plan by
which it can be done, adopt it.
A SAD SUICIDE.
We learn from the Philadelphia papers
of Monday, that Mr. Charles Cathcart
Taylor, city editor of the Times of that
city, died on Sunday forenoon from the
effects of a pistol shot, discharged by his
own hand, in a moment of mental aberra
tion. The deceased was one of the most
popular young men in Philadelphia, and
was a journalist of national reputation.
From the 7mes we learn that Mr. Taylor
had been in ill health for two months or
more. A chronic dyspepsia prevented his
taking regular rest or sufficient food to
sustain a debilitated system, and this phys
ical disorder was supplemented and aggra
vated by an accumulation of business trou
bles, which brought on a mental distur
bance involving a depression of spirits.
He was on duty at the Times office until
a late hour on Saturday night. Sunday
morning at about 9 o'clock he awoke, and,
though very weak, proposed to accompany
his wife to church She persuaded him
that he ought to sleep longer, and went
down stairs to prepare some beef tea, in
the hope that it would strengthen him.
While she was gone he fired the fatal shot.
Death was instantaneous. The event oc
curred at Mr. Taylor's residence, No. 3310
Walnut street, West Philadelphia. The
remains will be interred in the family bur
ial lot at Oakland Cemetery. Georgetown,
D. C. The deceased was thirty five years
of a g e The sane paper says that "green
mei:allies of C. Cathcart Taylor, will long
come back to surviving friends from the
whispering willows of his resting place."
JUSTICE TO A SCOUNDREL.
The Judge of the Police Court of San
Francisco, on Tuesday morning, sentenced
Dennis Kearney to six months imprison
went in the house of Correction and to
pay a fine of $l,OOO. This sentence took
Dennis like thunder took the toad, as he
had expected to get off with a nominal
sentence The whole country, from ocean
to ocean, will thank that Judge for meting
out justice to this agitator. Now, that
the good work has commenced, let the res
pPctable people of that city impeach and
&pose Kalloch from the office of Mayor.
he has proven himself to be as arrant a
knave as his henchmln, Kearney.
Democratic Statement No. 2. by a
MR FDITOR:— The assumed "Boss Ring Mas
ter," in the columns of his "back-pay organ," in
his issue of the 26th alt, attempted to demolish
ins with his elegant and refined diction. He says
I am not a "literary hugger." The inference then
is that he is a "bugger" with all that the name
implies. Ile says I "cannot write a gramafical
sentence." yet, in the very sentewei in which he
charges me with the grave offence, he spellsgrain
inatical with one "ui," to wit: "gramatical.'
Holy mother of Mo-es, what a critic to cull any
one to judgment Again, he thinks it wonderful
that any one who was not raised at Cassville
should, in referring to him, say that he was the
Mephistopheles of the Democratic party, and that
it was marvelous how I should have ever heard of,
and compared him with such a character. But if
he wilt turn over the sages of Webster's Una
bridged Dictionary, (edition of 1S70) page 1575,
i e r the head of —Staed - nainea of Fiction." he
will find Mephistopheles defined thus: "One of
the seven chief devils in the old demonology, the
second of the fallen archangels and the most
powerful of the infernal legiens after Satan. He
figures in the old legion of Doctor Faustus as the
familiar spirit of that renowned magician, and
his name was commonly used as a term of jocular
reproach. To modern readers be ißchit - Cy known
as the cold. scoffing. relentless fiend of Goethe's
Faust, anti the attendant demon in Marlowe's
Faustus." Perhaps this is too mush learning for
a Schooi Director, and I will desist. But what
better illustration could I have used for this fellow
thin to have thus called him, considering his
devices and methods and his mode of treating
everybody. With this definition bet , ire ray eyes,
could I have called him oth-r than "the Mvphisto
phelem of the Democr :tic party ?"
He considers it a grave offence after. I was at
tacked by name iu his personal organ for not
voting for him for SCHOOL DIRECTOR, that I
should reply in a Republican newspaper. He
commenced the attack on me, and it was without
the shadow of an excuse. ii.ejeeted as a candidate
for Congress, o n it be possible that his whole
ambition is now sot - upon being a SCHOOL DI
RECTOR of this borough, and that the touchstone
of whether a man is a Democrat or not, is whether
he voted fur him for School Director. "What a
fall was there, my countrymen," for a man who
was twice Congressman in this district, who had
some notions of being again a candidate for Con
gress, but as we read in the last issue of his paper,
has declined, and is trying at this time to be
elected at the next Democratic State Convention,
Delegate-at-Large to the rational Convention,
to attempt in the columns of his newspaper to
proscribe me because I had not voted for him for
the office of School Director. TPis wa,s the real
Democrat.
0: HS •tuut.d pretext up n which he couiteeneed his
attack upon me, and be too nominated upon a
fu4ion ticket. irli;oh he made himself. To speak
plainly, I lid not think he was fit to be a School
Director, au t therefore voted against him. He
w ro-e a column and a half in hie personal organ
in al hoe of ins, laudation of himself, and in en
deavoring to show that there was no politics in
the contest, and thus although he had been de
feated for Congress, be could cons -le himself that
he stilt lived in a town in which he could beeleeted
School Director. i:ut cue makes it the tuuchstoneof
mocracy whether a man should vote for him four
that high and important office, and because I did
nut do so, lam singled out fur abuse. Now, let
there he no mistake about this. There would not
have to en one word written by me for airy news
paper, it Speer had not attacked we fur not vu lug
for him for SAlool Director. He was the aggres
sor and he is to blame. lie is dictatorial and
tyrannical, are i is trying to crush out every ore
E 0 that he may "bear the palm alone." That is
the reason :or attackiug me. He thinks he was
born to rule the Democratic party of the county.
When I incurred his displeasure by not voting for
him fur SAsool Director, I replied in the only
medium I could have in this county, a Republi
can newspaper, because, of course, the Monitor
eewspaper would not open its columns to wo for
that purpose. And this in the eyes of "the Scnoot.
Dtitueron - is considered a grave offence. a_ td he
reads we out of the party and consigns me to
Gehenna. or what is worse, fulminates his anathe
mas against me and sets me aside as the victim of
his displeasure, and as lit only to consort with Re
publicans. Was there ever such an exhibition of
divine wrath ? With a recklessness characteristic
of this Mephistopheles, he says that I have done
wore for tiepublicans than Democrats. When he
wrote that sentence, had he reflected but for one
moment, he would have known that the people of
this county would brand it as a willful and delib
erate falsehood. But it only accords with all
other statements which have emanated from that
pen. The great trumpeter still continues to in
flate himself; and in one of his articles of the 26th
alt., he congratulates the citizens of the county
and tries to make them thankful that they live in
the region where he was born. "How we little
apples io swim." If Huntingdon county has
nothi..g else to boast of than having given birth
to this ingrate, her condition is sad, indeed. He,
philosopher like, consoles himself with the reflec
tion that be was born in this county. It makes
but little difference where he was born. What
cares he for the friendships he has violated and
the men. and the party he has betrayed ? These
are deserving of no consideration at his hands
His greatest delight seems to be in trampling
under tout those who have advanced his political
interests. If -t would in any way add to his ad
vancement, 'ue would, without a pang of remorse,
destroy the great Democratic party in this county
and State. It is a source of great gratification
that we now learn he has prudentlyconclud-d that
he will not be a candidate for Congress. This is
glad news, as he out of the way, it is very
probable that in the next Congress this district
will be represented 'ov a Democrat, notwithstand
ing the Hon. H. G. Fisher may be the opposing
candidate. True to his natural unscrupulous dis
position. he attempts, by every species of false
hood. to4nake the Democrats of the county be
lieve I have nut been faith:ut to my party, and
this fur the manifest purpose of bringing me into
disfavor with Democrats, as he has frequently
attempted to do with others, so that he may have
a little oligarchy of his own to rule with an iron
hand. I hereby give him notice that no assevera
tions of his can sway or drive me from the party
of my birth and my choice, and I intend further,
that no one man shall tyrannically run the party
for his own selfish purpose, if I can prevent it. I
am for the Jeffersonian doctrine, that the people
shall rule. No upstart, even though he was born
in this oeunty shall, with my consent, divide and
distract the party. Fortunately, men do not in
herit power in this country, nor do they acquire it
by practicing tyranny and oppression. He should
understand that to merit success requires gratitude
and faithfulness to friends. Ingratitude is a vice
which should damn, and will destroy any ens who
possesses it. He will find that it is easier to tear
down than to build up; and if he continues in
the course he has hitherto pursued, he will soon
be as much spurned and despised by the Demo
cratic party as a party, as he is by the people
generally, for his cold-blooded selfishness. Ho,
in his "back pay organ," attempts to rule me out
of the party, and that because I refused to vote
for him for SCHOOL DIRECTOR, in a contest in
which ho said there was no politics. He is a nice
fellow, indeed, to prate about any man's Democra
cy, when his political history is written all over
with infidelity to his friends, and to the party to
which he assumes to belong. I will only allude
to a few instances of his treachery that are gener
ally known to the people.
In the campaign of 18t19, we bad a county fusion
ticket, upon which Mr. Cloyd was running for
County Treasurer, and was the only Republican
on it. The balance of the ticket were Democrats.
The fusion ticket had been ratified by the Demo
cratic County Convention. Yet Speer. in that.
campaign, did all in his power against Cloyd. a
one-armed soldier, and used corrupt and dishon
orable means to elect Mr. Williamson, the gentle
man who was running on the regular Republican
ticket. Not because be had any especial liking
for Mr. Williamson personally, but true to his
mercenary instincts, he had an object in view.
lie wanted to speculate on the county funds, and
wanted the man elected that he thought would
deposit the money of the county in the bank of
which he was a stockholder. It was dollars and
cents, and not party with him. Again in '7B he
sold out the whole Democratic party, body and
breeches, to a handful of (Ireenbackers, with the
same mighty object in view, to wit: self. He cared
not for the party. He entertained the insane idea
that he could be elected United States Senator,
and it was therefore the members of the Legisla
ture he was atter. These are but a few illustra
tions, and are sufficient to chow how pure his mo
tives are. The true test of Democracy with him
is—"did you vote for me for School Director on
the fusion ticket ?" If answered in the negative,
he devotes a column and a half of vile epithets to
you and reads you out of the party. It is all
proper and right for him and his henchmen to
trade off his comrades on the ticket, but dire trea
son for any one to vote asainst him for SCHOOL
DIRECTOR. As Major Petrikin did not vote
;or him for SCHOOL DIRECTOR either, he makes
a cold-blooded attack upon him also. The harsh
and reproachful accusations he hurls at him must
convince any mind that ho is insensible to every
feeling that should have directed the conduct of
an honorable man. As he is a banker, wears kid
gloves, fine linen and lives in luxury, he unfeel
ingly and eneeringly alludes to the distress and
financial misfortunes which have overtaken Mr.
Petrikin, caused by no fault of his own other
than by the kindness of his heart in e-deavoring
to assist others. If that be a fault then Major
Petrikin is to blame. But Speer will never be
come embarrassed by any such kind actions. The
crime of kindness will never be laid at his door.
Ile always express a most satisfactory opinion
of himself, and generally speaks with great con
tempt of everybody else, and from his lofty pinna•
die scuffs at the calamity of others, and says "go
sway; you are not as good as I am. I have
money. You Oared to vote against me fur SCHOOL
DIRECTOR, I'll crush you. I have the money
to do it, and the conscience to carry it out." But
he had better beware, for others way laugh "at
his calamity and mock when his fear comoth.,'
He has, in a measure, thus far escaped the per
sonal detestation of the people of the county, but
when his cold and cruel scoffing at the calamity
of others is known as it should be, he will no
longer escape.
"Mercy to him that shows it, is the rule,
Aud righteous limitation of its act,
By which Heaven moves in pardoning guilty wan ;
And be that shows none, being ripe in years
Aud conscious of the outrage he commits,
Shall seek it, and not find it, in his turn."
I hay not sought this controversy. The attack
on me was wanton and unprovoked. I did riot
vote for this upstart for School Director. This
was sufficient reason for him to open the flood
gates o' his wrath, and then, as I, in the Globe,
reminded him of some unpleasant facts which he
could not truthfully contradict. like an assassin in
the dark, be stabs at me over the shoulders of this
"Uriah Heap," whom he calls hie editor. He
must not think he is deceiving any one, as the
cant phrases be uses on all ocesions are used in
his articles, and point with unerring hand to the
author of them. There is about as much truth in
his statement that he did not write the ribaldry
that he has disgorged himself of, as there is in the
one in which he said "he did not ask a man to
vote for him for School Director." He had better
come out at once in his own name, as the author
ship of his slang is well known. And if there is
one thing better known than another in this town
it is that he has the absolute control over all that
appears in his paper. Why did his lackey so
nervously bop like a flea on a hot griddle every
few minutes, over to Speer's house the d I e before
hie paper came out, ••to get copy ?" Why, the
only practical use the "Ring Master" ma k es of
thi s jiftkpiime, is to have him trot from the Mon
ottice to his house unit there sit on he door
rug until he supplies him with such matter as he,
in his wisdom, may think meet for hisdrgan. He
then charges we with treachery towards my own
partner at the time of election of delegates to the
Erie Convention. This is a bold and impudent
falsehood, and Speer knew it when he wrote it. I
was Major Petrikin a friend then, and have been
ever since I came to Huntingdon, and have always
found in him a gentleman who is ever grateful and
true to his friends. This no one can say of Speer.
It is, besides, the most sublime impudence for
Speer to prate about treachery. Nature, in his
make up, saturated him with treachery. As it is
well known, a contest has been going on in this
State for many years, between the lion. Samuel
J. Randall and Hon. Wm A. Wallace, as to
which of them should control the organization of
the party, and especially which of them should
control the organization of the State Conventions.
In 1878, Speer went to Pittsburgh to the Demo
cratic State Convention as the friend of Randall,
who had be known him longer, would have known
better then to trust him or confide in him. The
contest between Mr. Randall and Mr. Wallace
and their friends for the control of the Conven
tion, became close. Mr. Wallace, fearful of the
result, began to cast around for a Benedict Arnold
lie took Speer's measure at a glance, baited his
hook with the Chairmanship of the State C ntral
Committee, threw hie line and Speer jumped for
it like a trout for a fly. But for this treason Ran
dall would have had the Convention and the De
mocracy saved from the infliction of such a chair
man Ei,d he proved to be Prior to this Conven
tion he had vilified and said all the ugly and hard
things he could of Mr. Wallace, and professed the
warmest and deepest friendship for Mr. Randall.
After be captnred the bauble, the price of his
treachery, he at once conceived the idea that he
was a greater man than the one who so successful
ly baited him, and off he hies to Philadelphia,
where he met a prominent leader in the party, to
whom be made a proposition, for he was now
ready and wiring to betray Hon Wm. A. Wallace,
that if he would join him, he thought he Gould
run !he Democratic party independent of both
Randall or Wallace.
He even has his liol•spittlos to follow and ob
serve to whom I . may speak or talk on the public
sireet s. His silly twaddle about seeing Mr. Woods
and myself talking on the public thoroughfare, is
too boyish for consideration. Mr. Woods is a
Republican, I am a Democrat. Has it come to
this tlutt Republicans and Democrats cannot speak
to each other without, getting a tirade of a.bupe
from his one-ideaed organ ? One thing is sure,
however, that Mr. Woods would not permit Speer
to associate with him on the streets for live
minutes, let alone one whole hour Mr. Woods
was Speer's friend. That was enough for Speer
when an opportunity occurred to stab him. Ha
always does this. As a con equence; Mr. Woods
considers Speer an inyrate. Ile won't,assoeiate
with him. In plain language, he simply de.pisee
him. I will refer at this time to only one more
subject and lam done. The pious soul of Speer
is vexed because I have unmasked him, and sent
the newspapers showing his hideous hypocrisy
and deformity to Democrats. I know of no better
service I can do the Democratic party than to
show up this fellow in his true colors. A full pen
picture of him will be interesting, and if the occa
sion demands it, I will complete it hereafter.
