applications which are being supplied
by tbe county ou tbe order of Prothon
otary Watklns. On August 10, 1892, the
Comlssioners paid a bill of 123.70 for
iuuu 01 tuese Ulanks. which is consid
ered oy reputable printers to be an out
rageous price, ims week tbe same
printer presents a bill for fieri nl th pea
same blanks. His charge for the last
order is 820.00, just 83.70 less than that
puiaiortne iuuu order. Think of itl
I'our cents apiece for ordinary blanks!
Here Is a matter for the Commission
ers to examine into carefuUy. Under
the law, the county Is required to fur
nish blanks for tbe different offices,
but the Commissioners are the proper
r tu contract ror tne same.
Carbon's Board has permitted the
ofllclals to order what they pleased,
when they pleased and from whom
they pleased, without regard to necess
ity or price. As a result, there is a
tendency towards extravagance on the
part of the official and extortion on tbo
part of the printer.
The taxpayers of the county should
uuk ue uauea upon to maintain a print
ing OlMnA nr onw ntlia. -!..., .n
therefore the greatest scrutiny should!
aai oiiis lor wont. ror wnloh no
bids were asked. If m nMlMnl nnt
to bolster up an organ, he should not
be permitted to make the county pay
two prices for blanks, some of whiob
may not be necessary for years to come.
Let tbe Commissioners takn this
matter In hand, aud make a thorough
investigation. We have pointed out
one extravagance, and there may be
uiuio.ui wnicn we are not Informed.
It Is their sworn duty to guard the in
teresUof the taxpayers aud adminis
ter the affairs of tbe county justly and
economically. They can begin the
work of retrenchment even at this late
date in their terms, aud perhaps save
the oounty a considerable sum before
their successors are qualified.

To tb,f Democracy of our thriving
town. If you were not on the winning
side In the reoent delegate c lections,
don't "sulk In your tent," but show you
are true Democrats, by helping along
the nominees as If they had been your
choice. It Is Important, o( course, to
have efficient officers to rule our county
government, and It is right to take a
strong interest In the elections, but
when the votes are cast and counted,
and the winners declared, opposition
should oease at onoe. Tbe principles
of our great parly should be paramount
to our personal friendships and de
sires. If we wish to advance these
principles there must be harmony in
the ranks. Your w.unds will soon
heal up i you quit thinking about
them and when with your assistance
the party moves proudly onward, as it
has in the past, It will be a source of
gratification to you aud will win tbe
respeot of those who were your oppon
ents. Let us all put our shoulders to
the wheel and Democratic success will
crown our effort net November.

"Johnstown is honored to-day bv the
presenoe of a host of strangers who
have gathered from all sections of this
great state to attend the thirty-fourth
annual council of the Junior Order of
United American Mechanics, au organi
zation whose strength iu Pennsylvania
is perhaps exceeded by that ' of no
similar body." It is a representative
gathering aud as such it receives
cordial welcome to the Flood City. It
is a notable event in the history of
Johnstown audits hospitalities will
doubtless render it so In the annals
of the Juniors of the Keystone state.
We are quite certain that our peonle
appreciate the distinction which bas
been conferred upon the gathering of
so large and such a represenative body
aud with confidence we can assure the
visitors that no effort will be spared to
make their stay withiu our gates ai-
togetber pleasant. Ther have ul-
ready read their weloome in tbe lavish
display of flags and buutiug that greet
ed their eyes on every haud upon their
arrival in the city aud they will read
it again in tho faces aud the hospitali
ties of our citizens throughout their
stay. We waut them to feel at home
and to carry away with them when
they go the same sense of good will
that our people have expressed and
will retain when their gala time is over.
It will not be the fault of Johnstown if
the Juniors do not have a good time

tjy-Iu the Carbon-Monroe judical
district the democrats are now having
an experience with the conferree

der such a method, to get into trouble.
Says the Phlla. Press. Judge Storm, of

nomination, and each has an equal
number of cunf errees, regardless ot the
fact that Carbon has a population more
than half as large again as Monro and
casts n lamer Democratio vote. It Is
not expected that either county will
yield to the other, and tbe result will
probably be that both candidates will
remain in the Hold. Th claims of Car-1

has had the Judge about all tb time
