It looks that way. Little Phil. is the man who bucked against the administration some time ago dence about Philipsburg, ! ; i There is our friend John Daley, Curtin township's political sage and prophet, candidate for assembly; almost overlook ed the gentleman. Brother Daley, we have the kindest feelings for your wel. fare since we made that grievous error in regard to the Curtin township shooting match; and “hard cider” will not be cast up to you in the future.

Arnold must carry Centre or he will be defeated, as Elk and Forrest are against him. The ap- pointeient of the Bellefonte postoffice has been withheld evidently for the pur. pose of securing this. A strong fight will be made and John M. Dale seems to be the one who has undertaken the con- tract. TO carry Centre county for Arnold means that he must crawl over the prostrate forms of Clem and Al Dale, Wilber F. Reeder, Dan Hastings and others, which would be a decided vic. tory. Johny, get your gun. 4 3 « Last week the Keystone Gazette bad some plain commentson ‘Sobriety. A reward of fro could easily be offered for a man who would say that the Gazette was booming Arnold for renomination, by that article.
