Nomination of Major Henry Wetter for
state ciiaior.
The action of the Senatorial Con
ferees of this district at their con
ference held at Tionesta, on Tuesday
last, meet., so far as we have heard
any expression, with the unqualified
approbation of the Republican party
and the people of the district.
The nomination being neither
solicited nor desired by Major Wetter
It was made in order to meet the
wishes of not only the Republican
party of the district, but also at the
solicitation of a large number of the
most prominent oil operators of
Clarion and the other counties coi
prised in the oil Region. Reiner one
among the most extensive operators,
practically acquainted with all the
needs of tho business, and a gentle
man in whom they have unlimited
confidence, on behalf of the oil inter
ests,. they, without distinction of
party urged his nomination.
We therefore present Maj. Henry
Wetter not only as the chosen expo
nont of Republican principles, but as
the representative man of the oil busi
ness which is the representative In
terest of this Senatorial district.
As such he will be everywhere
recognized, and from assurances ex
pressed he will receive the solid vote
of the oil interest of the counties com
posing the district.
We consider that a more fitting
nomination could not bare been
made. Aiaj. w otter's record is one
that cannot be successfully assailed by
the most malignant partisan. Ho was
a gallant soldier and lost a leg at the
second battle of Bull Run. As a busi
ness man bis career has been one o
marked success, and this sufficiently
indicates bis executive ability. A
sterling man, a christian gentleman
popular with all classes, if elected
which we have every reason to be
lieve he will br , he will faithfully aud
efficiently serve the best interests of
the people of the district. Clarion

From a Chicago Tribune letter from Denver.
John L. Routt, Republican candl
date for Governor, has a majority of
nearly 1,000 over Bela M. Hughes
James B: Belford, for the Forty-fourth
and Forty-fifth Congress, has a ma
jority or between boo and oo over
Thomas M Patterson, late Democratic
delegate to Congress. The balance of
the Republican State ticket has ma
joritios running from 1,000 to 1,500 and
tho Legislative ticket from 1,600 to
2,2U0. The average Republican ma
jority on the whole ticket is 1,500 a
gain of 8,600 over 1874,- when the Ter
ritory went Democratio by 2; 100 ma'
jority. The total vote of the State
foots up 27,000, an increase of 10,500 in
two years..
The Business Revival Tilden
preaches bard times as one reason
why he should bo elected. Yet in
spite of bis dismal oroakings. his ar.
dent apologist, the Philadelphia
Timet, gives mm tnls slap in tne face
The fact that tbe condition of busi
ness, both present and prospective, is
better than It has been at any time for
three years, is admitted, even by the
most dismal croakers- From every
centre comes the same pleasant tale of
brisk trade, more numerous discounts
larger purchases and quicker collec

LONDON HAIR COLOR RESTORER
LONDON HAIR COLOR RESTORER
Not a Dye; makes harsh hair toft and
tilky; cleanses the tealp from all impurities,
causing the hair to grow where It hat fallen
off or become thin.
Can be applied by the band as it does not
stain the skin orisoil the finest linen. As
a Hair Dressing it is the most perfect the
world has ever produced. The bair is re
novated and strengthened, and natural
co'or restored without the application of
mineral substances.
Since the introduction of this truly valu
able preparation into this country, it has
been the wonder and admiration of all clas
ses, as it has prored to be the only article
that will absolutely without deception, re
store gray hair to its original jolor, health
softness, lustre and beauty, and produce
hair on bald heads of ill original growth
and oolor.
This beautiful and fragrantly perfumed
article it complete within itself, no washing
or preparation we fore or after its use, or
accompany men! of any kind being required
to obtain those desirable results.
Her Is the Proof of Its SUPERIOR
EXCELLENCE.

by Edward B. Qarrieues one of the most
competent Druggists and Chemists of Phila

doubt.
I am happy to add my testimony to the
great value of the London Hair Color Re
storer which restored my hair to its . origi
nal Color, and tbe hue appears to be per
manent. 1 am satisfied that this prepara
tion not a dye but operates upon tbe te
crctions. It is also a beautiful bair dress
lng and promotes the growth. I purchased
the first bottle from Edward B. Uurrigues,

The Times

else why should our most sagacious
merchants venture to lay in such
tremendous stocks of goods. "We no
tice that our downstairs neighbors,
Messes Powell & Kirne. are opening
up one oftbe largest and most com
plete assortments of merchandise that
we remember ever before having seen
in our town. Indicationiftoo aro that
they have made no mistake in ventur
ing to increase their business, for
there is a constant rush for their new
goods. Every department of their
well arranged salesrooms seems to be
well filled not only with the choicest
of seasonable goods, but also with well
pleased and satisfied looking customers
If you have not already been there
