day of June nett, at 12 o'clock noon, for the
nomination of candidates ta be supported for
President and Vice President at the next election.
Republicans and all who will co-operate with
them in supporting the nominees of the party are
invited to choose two delegates from each Con
gressional district, four at large from each State,

IF "Grant did it all" what was the use
of all the expense and loss of life in fool
ing around the South with large armies ?
Grant didn't "do it all," he only did his
share—only that, and nothing more.
THE extensive car works of Michael

IT is said that Fish, Washburne and

for him what a nice walkover he would
have at Chicago next Wednesday. But
they won't do it just yet.
BLAINE'S majority over Grant, at the
primary elections in Snyder county, on tho
15th inst., was one thousand and thirty

an active part in public affairs in . Alabama,
Mississippi, California and Tennessee.
SUPERVISOR AFRICA did not "play the

Mr. Africa, who is looked upon as a fair
and square gentleman.
There was no objection to Gen. Grant carrying
off the honors at Richmond in 1865. Why should
there be to his doing the same thing in Chicago
in 1880 ?—lfarrirburg Teleyraph.
Because the people do not want him ;
because if he is nominated the result will
be brought about by the politicians, and
because his candidacy would endanger the
success of the Republican party.
EDENBERG, an oil town in Clarion
county, for the second time in its history,
was visited by a destructive conflagration
on Saturday night, burning some seventy
buildings and business houses, the whole
entailing a loss estimated at $150,000.
The fire originated in an unoccupied hotel,
and was no doubt the work of an incen
diary.
SORE-HEAD Carl Schurz theater's to re
sign his office of Secretary of the Interior,
in case Grant is nominated and take the
field in favor of an anti third term candi
date. President Hayes should save him
the trouble of tendering his resignation
by his prompt removal. Such men are
unfit to occupy s position in the cabinet of
a Republican President.
TILE Republicans of Illinois have re
nominated Gov. Collura for re-election, and
John M. Ilami:ton, of McLean county, for
Lieutenant Governor; Henry D. Dement,
of Lee county, for Secretary of State ;
Charles P. Swigart, of Kankakee county,
for Auditor of Public Accounts ; Edward
Rutz, of Cook county, for State Treasurer,
and James McCartney, of Wayne county,
for Auditor General.
Ex Gov. CURINN says he "will take off
his coat in his Congressional district
against the nominee of the Chicago Con
vention." If his taking off his coat against
the Republican candidate for President
don't amount to more than it did when he
ran against Yocum, and was defeated in a
four thousand Democratic district, nobody
cares if be takes the stump wearing noth.
in but a shirt collar and a pair of garters.

Br Senator Logan's desperate trickery
he succeeded in organizing the Illinois
convention in the interest of Gen. Grant,
and having the organization it was an easy
matter for him to "set up" the committee
on contested seats so that the Blaine del
egation from Cook county would have no
semblance of justice done them. In this
he was successful, and the Blaine delega
tion was defraud:A out of its rights so
boldly that the Republicans of that State
have determined to select delegates to the
National Convention, independent of those
named by the State Convention. The
Boles County Intelligencer, in speaking of
Logan's apparent victory says : "He
wins, but at a heavy cost Ile entered
the strug.gle in league with Conkling and
Cameron, determined to win, but he never
dreamed of the obstacles which General
Grant would encounter in his own State.
To say that serious bitterness has been
stirred up in many parts of the State is to
put it very mildly ; and he who imagines
that this bitterness will pass away soon
will be greatly mistaken. The third term
idea proves to be a very difficult thing for
people to accept; but it is even less die
tasteful than the fact that three or four
politicians, possessing absolutely autocratic
powers in their respective States, are able
to ignore and defy the preference of the
people of the whole country. Take away
tho support of the politicians, and the
Grant movement dies in 2 day. Is it safe,
in view of these facts, to go before the
people in a Presidential year with a candi
date chosen by such methods ? Are there
not many prominent gentlemen who have
been named whom Republicans of all
shades of opinion could conscientiously
and cordially support fur the Presidency ?
And if a third term nomination—a thing
so devoutly wished for by the Democrats—
brings defeat upon our party will it be the
fault of the Republican masses or of the
statesmen whose statesmanship is of self
seeking vanity ?"
Editor.
WHILST we are emphatically in favor
of Blaine's nomination, and believe that he
is the strongest and best candidate that
could be put in the field, we are ready to
pull off our coat and go to work fur the
nominee of the party, whoever he may be,
and we hope every Blaine Republican in
Eluntingdon county feels just as we do.
The advice given in a recent issue of the
Philadelphia Korth American is so sensi
ble that we quote it : "If General Grant
is nominated at Chicago, which, as it seems
to us, is neither to be desired nor expected,
it will be the duty of all good Republicans
to give him their hearty support, what
ever may be their personal opinions as to
the expediency of his candidature. There
fore, it is poor policy for Republicans to
commit themselves to a line of conduct
which they may subsequently be required
to abandon. The Republican party can
only win next fall upon the condition that
its members sacrifice their private feelings
to the preservation of unity, and there is
no use in increasing the difficulty of this
sacrifice by giving hostages to fortune."
ON TO CHICAGO !—Vice President A.
J. Cassatt, of the P. R. IL, has addressed
a letter to Senator Cameron as chairman
of the National Republican Committee, in
which he states that the trunk lines have
agreed upon the following rates of fare
from the principal points named to Chicago
and return :

Excursion tickets not be issued from
local stations. Persons coming from in
termediate points must purchase full fare
tickets to the nearest place where they
can avail themselves of the excursion rate.
We understand that the unpleasant an
nouncement has also been made that there
will be no free passes issued to either
Chicago or Cincinnati. This will be a
hard blow to the hangers-on and political
dead beats who usually attend such gath
erings.
THE Bavarian government has an easy
way of getting clear of its paupers, by
packing them up and sending them to the
hospitable shores of America. Last week
no less than sixteen families, comprising
eighty adults and about that many chil
dren, arrived at Castle Garden, New York,
on board the steamer Westphalia. They
were without money or baggage, and when
their case was investigated by the author
ities, it was found that they had been sent
hither by the Bavarian government so as
relieve it of their maintenance. The men
said that they were in a starving condition
in their own country. The first ship that
leaves our shores should carry them back
to the place from whence they came. We
have enough poor of our own to provide
for, and some measures should be adopted
that would prevent foreign governmentp
shipping their paupers to our shores.
AT the primary elections held in Lan
caster county, on Saturday last, the voters
gave expression to their choice for a Pres
idential candidate, and the result shows
that Blaine was the favorite by three to
one for Grant. This expression of the
"State of Lancaster," with her 17,000 Re
publican voters and her 8,000 Republican
majority, should go farther towards smash
ing the unit rule than anything that has
occurred since the State cmvention attempt
ed to instruct the delegates against the
wishes of their constituents. The victory
is all the more complete too as it was in
the face of a bitter contest on the part of
the few friends who were desirous of flaunt •
inn. the Grant standard in this Blaine cit
adel. lluntingdon county would be able
to "see" Lancaster and "go ten better" if
her voters had an opportunity of express
ing their preference.
THE Prohibitionists met in State Con
vention, at Altoona, on Thursday last,
about fifty delegates being present from
different counties. A. A. Barker, of Eb
ensburg, was made permanent chairman,
a series of resolutions, setting forth the
views of the party, were passed, and Geo.
F. Turner, of Pittsburgh, - .vas nominated
for Auditor General. There was no nom
ination made for Supreme J udge, the mem
bers of the convention deeming it pru
dent to refer the matter to the State Cen
tral Committee. The nomination of Mr
Turner will only result in lessening Col.
Lemon's majority a few hundred votes in
the State.

TII n Republica. of Blair held their
county convention at Hollidaysburg, on
Monday last, and nominated the following
ticket : Congre: , s, Anthony Morrow; Sen
ator, Daniel P. Ray; Representatives, Hon.
B. L. Hewitt and Col. Theo. Burchfield;
District Attorney, J. D. Hicks; Treas
urer, Johnston C Akers; Associate Judges,
R. L. Gamble and Robert Stewart;
Register and Recorder, James S. Plum
mer; Director of the Poor, Eli Smith;
Coroner, Ceo. Mitchell. Among the res
olutions adopted by the convention was
one favoring the nomination of James G.
Blaine, and urging the delegates from th•
Blair Congressional district to use every
honorable means to secure his nomination.
The ticket nominated is looked upon as a
strong one
THE roster of the army shows that at
this time there are but four Major-Gener
als on the retired list, viz: Robinson,
Sickles, Carroll and Ricketts. Each one
of these draws a salary of $5,625 per an
num. There are eighteen Brigadier-Gen•
ends on the retired list, and fifty seven
Colonels. The former draw annually $4,125
and the latter, with a few exceptions,
$3,375. The position of a retired Major-
General is a nice one to occupy. If their
salaries were lesiened, and the surplus
added to the pitiful pensions now given
to the eyeless, armless, legless and badly
crippled privates and officers of lower
rank, it would be more creditable to the
Government.
IN the United States District Court, at
Pittsburgh, on Monday last, Judge Me.
Kennan appointed Edwin M. Lewis, Frank
lin B. Uowcn and Stephen A. Caldwell,
Receivers for the Philadelphia & Reading
Railroad Company and the Philadelphia
& Reading Coal and Iron Company. These
gentlemen were appointed at the request
of the representative of Moses Taylor, of
Philadelphia, who bolds $lOO,OOO of in
come mortgage bonds. The Receivers are
to give bonds in $500,000, and report
monthly to J. A. Clay and Geo. M. Dallas,
who were appointed Special Masters.
THE Flint and e Glass Manufactur
ers' Associa' is State, held a session
in Philad last week, the object of the
meeting being the formation of a National
Association, which was successful. The
new association will be known as the "Na
tional Flint and Glass Association," and
James B. Lyon, of Pittsburg, was elected
president. A resolution was adopted to
cease operations fur two months during
the hot weather, and committees were ap
pointed to carry out the object. It was
decided that no changes in prices should
be made.
SENATOR CAMERON can't complain if
delegates refuse to be governed by the in
structions of the State Convention and
kick the unit rule to the dogs, for he set
them the example in 186 S when he re
fused to vote fur Gov. Curtin for Vice
President under instructions from the State
convention. He did right then, and the
delegates from Blaine districts will do
right now by paying no attention to the
State convention instructions. "What is
sauce for the goose is sauce for the gan
der," always.

trict Attorney, C. A. Suessarott. As our
county will present no person for Senator,
Mr. Stewart will be our candidate this

his nomination and hope be may wake his

THE coirespondent of the Pittsburgh

tion, as we presumed ha due, when
we published 013 brief telezraol to that
paper last week. Mr. Fisher, like nine
tenths of the Republic ins in his district,
is an ardent Blaine man, and he should
not be misrepresented by the reporters of
Grant papers fur the purpose of bolstering
up the waning fortunes of their favorite.
GEN. J:4O. B. Go RDON, of Georgia, has
resigned his seat in the United States Sen
ate, and in his letter to Gov. Colquit he
assigns as his reason fbr such a course ; his
desire to quit public life aril the urgent
necessity of his personally looking after his
private business. Ex-Governor Joseph E.
Brown has been appointed to fill the va
cancy. He is a man of fair attainments
but is not so popular with the people of
his State as is the-retiring Senator.

The Reading Railroad Suspends
The suspension of the Reading Railroad
on Friday afternoon, was a su•pris- to
every one who was not conversant with
the financial embarrassments which have
been hampering that corporation for
in whs. past. This suspension will be a
hard bfivr to business in the anthracite
re 4 ion, as the people of that section were
ahtios4 Mint it aria its
eroploycs fir their of livelihood
The Philadelphia Ledger, of Saturday
morning, says this of the suspension :
Shortly after noon yesterday Third
street was thrown into a flutter of excite
ment by the currency or a rumor that the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron
Company had suspened payments, its
cheeks upon the different banks which had
previously cashed them having been re
turned unhonored.
The rumor, spreading to the Stock Ex
change, and subsequently being partly con
firmed by a statement to that effect from
President Clswen, the shares of the Rail
road Company, under the belief that its
interests were so closely identified with
those of the Coal and Iron Company that
whatever affected one disastrously would
react upon the other, rapidly began to de
cline from 22a23, at which figures they
had cli,ied the previous day and opened
yesterdly morning, until, at the adjourn
ment of the Board, they had tumbled to
151, with but a single bid at these figures.
After the Board, it is said, the stock was
sold on the street as low as 121. The
day's transactions footed up sales of 94,567
shares, as compared with 20 967 the pre
vious day, or ^n increase of 73,600.
MEETING OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS,
While this hammering was going on at
the Stock Exchange, President Gowen and
the Board of Directors of the Railroad
Company, were in private session at the
Company's office, on Fourth street, but no
particulars could be learned of the causes
leading to the suspension. At half -past
3 in the afternoon, however, the following
statement was furnished for publication,
which, as will be seen, includes the Rail
road Ctompany as well as the Coal and Iron
Company :
PHILADELPHIA, May 21, ISSO.—The Philadel
phia and Reading Railroad Company and the
Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Com
pany have been compelled to suspend paymen , .
The managers will talc* immediate measures to
protect intact the property of both companies and
continue their business, and for .:this purpose the
daily revenues will be applied, so far as required,
to the payment of wages, and for supplies.
By order of the Board of Managers
FRANKLIN B. Gowas, President.
AMONG COAL OPERATORS.
The interest and excitement attending
the announcement of the suspension of the
coal company was quite as great among
the coal operators and shippers on Walnut
street as it was among the brokers on
Third street. All seemed to be taken by
surprise, and unable to forcast the future,
although the expression was general of a
belief that production, which is now limit
ed to three days a week, would not be
further restricted. When the news of the
suspension of the railroad company was
also made public it was generally looked
upon as a great calamity, but the opinion
was expressed that beyond hampering the
company for a time still more in its finan
cial operations, everything would come
right in the end.
The large transportation business of the
company, it was argued, could not be al
lowed to stop, and, whether the road be
placed in the hands of a Receiver or allow
ed to remain under its present manage
ment, the necessities of the coal trade and
the general public demand that the road
should be continued in full working order.
The subject of the nu-pension of the
associated companies was averred on all
sides to be too great to grasp within a few
hours, and those spoken to about it con
curred in the belief that time would be
required to consider it in all its bearings,
and bring a solution of the difficulties
under which they have heretofore labored.
It is understood that late yesterday after
noon a circular was prepared by the Mana
gers of the Railroad Company, to be issued
to its employes to day, announcing that
business would be continued as usual, and
that the company relied upon them for the
same faithful service in the future as in
the past.
SKETCH OF THE COAL AND IRON COMPANY,
The Philadelphia Coal and Iron Com
pany whose suspension has reacted upon
the Railroad Company, was organized in
1872 and the entire stock taken by the
Reading Railroad. The object of the
former was to give the latter a certain
control over the coal mines along its line.
Different collieries were bought until the
company owned probably a majority, and
by mining and shipping the coal it became
an extensive feeder to the Railroad Com
pany. The competition in the anthracite
trade and the cutting of prices operated
seriously against the company, until finally
a combination was entered into by the
leading coal and transportation companies
to keep down production and maintain
prices. When this compact expired, about
a year and a half ago, then each carried on
its business in its own way. Recently,
however, the leading interests in the
anthracite trade apparently came to an
understanding for the present season. In
accordance with this agreement, a general
suspension of mining was ordered for three
days in each week in March. On the first
of April operations were resumed in full,
but, after two weeks, a return was ordered
to the present half-time policy.
"FEW OF THE ILLS OF LIFE"
are more prevalent and distressing than bil
ious disorders. The symptoms are low spirits,
want of energy, restlesness, headache, no ap
petite, sallow skin, costiveness and other ail
ments which show the liver is in a diseased
state and needs regulating, and the proper
way to do it is to use "Da. SWAYNE'S TAR AND
SARSAPARILLA PILLS." Their effect on the
liver and blood is wonderful, removing pim
