The statement made in last

ft. F. Ely was putting in a twenty
liorse-power engine at his saw mill is
correct with the exception that it
should read a 65 horse-power engine.
Mr. Ely will have one of the fluent

describe the mill more fully when it

Peterson's Maoazixe is on our

unrivalled lady's book can be pub

getting better; but the secret, we sup
pose, lies iu its enormous, circulation.
The November issue leads off with a
capital steel engraving, "Missy In the
Bulks,'' and is followed by one of
those double-size steel fashion plates,
(iuptibly colored, only seen in this pe

illustrating a powerful story; and
then some fifty wood cuts of dresses,
patterns in embroidery, crochet, &c,
Ac. "Mary, Queen of .Scots," is a

Thomas II. Murray.
The un called tor attack on this gen
tleman by the Elk Democrat second
banded from the Clearfield Citizen is
one of the vilest tilings we have seen
during the campaign, but, knowing
as we do the character of the Citizen as
a libelous sheet, we are not surprised ut
the filthy slander, und as the character
of the Democrat for lying is more
than assured we only place this along
with its other dirty lies and pass the
whole thing as an outrageous false
hood. No respectable Democratic
paper has assailed the character of Mr.
Murray. The Clearfield Republican,
an able Democratic newspaper does
uot In any way reflect on his high
character as a gentleman. The alle
gation that he compared Hancock to
Benedict Arnold in his speeches is
another lie out of whole cloth and
known to be a lie by the persons cir
culating the story. Mr. Murray
spoke at this place and at Wilcox to
large audiences who were well pleased
with his gentlemanly appearance and
eloquent words, iu striking contrast to
the slovenly appearance and mumb
ling utterances of the O. W. G. who
spoke at Hyde's opera house two years
ago. Mr. Murray Is emphatically a
self-made man, owing his success at
the bar to hard work against odds,
and rising to his present position by
Iierseveratice and honorable action.
Vote to send Thomas H. Murray to

Earley a Frlond of Iho People.
Vote for C. R. Earley tho friend
of the people. Brown Is not the
Democratic nominee but the Hall
nominee who are Democrats because
it pays them. Vote then against
Brown and the Halls. J. K. P. Hall
(who wants to gobble up the alphabet as
well as the county) run the last Demo
cratic county convention and under
takes to run the county. Teach him by
the election of Earley Hint ho cannot do
it. vote against jsrown who is a
bigot, and proved himself such by re
fusing the Catholic people of Wilcox,
when he was school director, the use
of the school house for religious
worship occasionally He said lie
would grant no such privilege to the
d n Catholics.
It conies with bad grace from the
Hall's to bu eireulalinr bills and
pamphlets on the company store order
lull question ostliey run in St. Marys
a company store of the worst kind.
Vote against Brown for he Is the tool
and nominee of the Halls. Put down
the Hull Ring by voting for Earley,
if that ring Is not crushed no man
can Ket otllce in Elk county only as
the Hulls wish. The Halls arc wide
awake and always setting up the pins
for the future. J. K. P. II. Q. fc,
Hull nominated himself for Congress
with power to choose his own dele
gates, at the late so called Democratic
county convention (it was Jim Hall's
convention) went down to Lock
Haven, made u nice little speech, and
gave all his influence to Cuitiu &
Wallace who in turn will of course
return thccompliment to Hall at some
future time. The Halls could fell
any one confidentially long before the
convention, who were going to be
nominated. They can tell you now
who are going to get the nominations
for several years to come John Hall
si ts up the pins and Jim knocks them
down. Voters of Ell;! Democrats,
Republicans, and G reen backers, put
an end to this Hull Ring for ever by
electing Earley.
Vote according to your conscience
for Earley the friend of all ami espec
ially of Hie poor, or, for Brown the
biot, Itnownnthing and political
renegade Let the poor men rcmcui
ber Earley who was always at their
service, free gratis, with his skill and
medicine when a doctor was needed
He would (io so uiruin and does cverv
day. What have the Halls and
Brown done for the poor or the com
munity in general? nothinir. They
are liberal with their hand shaking
when election comes that is all
Vote for Earley vote early. Jim
Hall bets and boasts he can run Elk
county. Show him he cannot.
Let the members of nil churches
und religions denominations to all of
which Earley has liberally contributed
remember their friend on election day.
The Democrat sjys: "lirown is
opposed to monopolies." and yet for
the last eleven years has run one of
thf largest company stores in the
country.

Republican ilass Jleetiiiu
At HYDE'S OPERA HOUSE,
Speeches hy Go;i. John Patton, of
Oiii-woiisvi'lo, Pa., and Thomas
II. Murray.
yi Th'-rsday evening, Oct. 21st,
lv;:l, the Republicans of Elk county
opened the campaign with an enthu
siastic meeting in Hyde's commodious
and el. jrant opera hnuo. The meeting
was called to order by the chairman
of the county committee, Col. Ames,
w ho called for music. The Glee Club
sang, "The Battle is Begun," after
which Col. Ames nominated W. II.
Osterhout as chairman of the meeting.
The chairman called for the list of
vice presidents which were read by
the secretary as follows, viz: Joseph
Corby; Jo.-hua Sy kes; John Hanscom;
James Thomas; James J. Taylor; U.
W. Rogers; J. S. Chamberlain; E.
Hoveneamp; Ji. O. Ellithorp; G. A.
Jaeob-oii; Tho.s. McKeuii: A. E. Golf;
Abel Grcsh; J. W. Donahue; Hurry
Cats: O. T. Minor; Hiram Carman;
D. C. Oyster; Jerome Powell; W. C.
Spafford; Clias. McVeun ; Geo. W.
Clinton.
On the invitation of the chairman a
number of the vice presidents tool;
seats upon the stage.
The chairman then made a short
but stiring speech the audience show
ing their appreciation by frequent ap
plause. The Glee Club then sung, "For
Honor and the Right, "after which the
chairman introduced Gen. Patton, of
Carwensville, who rapidly reviewed
the records of the Democratic party
from 1812 down to 18S0.
As a business man lie deprecated u
change in the administration as dan
gerous to the business interests of the
country. His speech was rich in
humor creating frequent bursts of
laughter mid applause. In closing he
alluded in glowing terms to the ability
and record of bis townsman Thos. H.
Murray. The glee club tlieui i-ang,
"We will not vote for Hancock."
Thos. IT. Murray Republican candi
date for congress from the 20th district
was then introduced, who iu modest
ami well chosen language presented
his own candidacy as against Gov
C'urtin's. He then in plain und ele
gant language launched forth with tin
eloquent address iu which he drew
word pictures of the rise, progress and
successes of the Republican party,
comparing their record with the
Democratic history; spoke of tlio con
fcistency of the Republican doctrines
from the very inception of the party
to the present; comparing it with the
inconsistency of the Democrats who
hud nominated Republican imbecils
irom Horace Greeley to War Gov.
Curtlu, and were crying "Hard
Money" in one part of the couniry
und "Soft Money" in another, und
who were obliged to change their
tactics und their speeches every time
they cross u county line. After an
announcement by the chair of a meet
ing at Wilcox on Friduy evening, and
a Swedish address at the Republican
club room on Saturday evening the
80th Inst., the Glee Club Sang to close
'he Prayer of her Loyal Sous,!'
The Ring antl their Pamphlet,
The Elk Democrat has printed and
the Ring Is Industriously circulating
a pamphlet entitled, "The Records of
the candidates for Assembly in Elk
county, 1880." As It is unsigned and
without any publisher's imprint un
Intelligent public Is justified In view
ing it with suspicion unless tho state
ments made therein are accompanied
by sufficient proof of their truthfulness.
In his preface Mr. writer says he is
not in affiliation with the Democratic
party; the candidates (Earley and
Brown) are alike indifferent to him;
and his only object la preparing the
pamphlet is to give his fellow-voters a
full knowledge of the antecedents of
tho candidates.
The body of his pamphlet shows that
he is not a Republican, for a Republi
can would never undertake to prove
any thing by quotations from the
Chfinijiion, lie says he is not in affili
ation with the Democratic party: the
Ring is not the DeiuncruLls nurtv

candidate has on numerous occasions
uone oetore tney nave anything Demo
cratic about them, and he may be in
ufliiiation with tliem and sti'll with
truth say what he docs about his party
preferences. But, lie says the candi
dates are alike indifferent to him.
ibis might be construed to siimi.V
that both have turned tho cold shoul
der upon him, or :t may menu that he
is situated like Daniel in the picture,
in which Daniel is represented us being
in tiie den with two lions, and of which
the showman says : "Now ladies ami
gentlemen, that blue spot there is a
green cotton umbrellar, ami that green
spot a carrying it is Daniel. You will
notice that Daniel is not afraid of the
lions, und if yon look close you will
observe that tiie lions don't cure a d n
for Daniel."
In tne usual acceptation of the word
indifferent, the conviction is iiTe-it-tible
tout he "lies line u thief" when be
says tne candidates are iiidilierent to
him, or ue is a G ivou backer, u poor,

und now oik- is resurrected and the com
uuuiity boo-lioos lor the other and will
not be contorted. And now, dear
reader, it you liuvu wiped your eyes
and blown your nose wo will try to
find out how much this writer has
misstated t..e respective records of the
two lueii. He devotes two and one
half pages to a personal sketch of Doc
tor Earley, covering a period of ;!')
years, and during nil in cm: years lie
lias faiied lo liiui a single act wnich lie
deems, woi tny ol i.ivoruble mention
lie lias not as much as one good word
for him. How many nr-j there iu this
county wlio cannot remember charit
able anil other commendable acts by
tne hundreds.' And yet this writer
who clainu to be so exactly impartial
docs not even mention one, wuile be
praises Mr. Brown in two pages bo
Highly that one imagines the L in his
middle name stands lor Lovely. He
liguiv.i out that Dr. Euriey has held
olnce 10 years out of liii, out fails to
stale that Mr. Brown has for the same
length or liiue Lecii trying his bet
with all toe uiiiel'cnt parties which
have been in existence iu Elk county,
and has been repudiated by all. lie
figures out i years lor the Doctor as
county superintendent, but lie omii.s
to say that the lilt year he seivcd lot
the magnificent salary of f.)7. )i) aim
the highest ho received iu any year
was s loo while Mr. Brown was" the
prime mover in taking out of tici
county treasurcy $toj a year to add to
the iss.io which Mr. Dixon was already
gelling for the same office. But it is
not necessary to comment further on
the tra-.fi this man has written about
the two men it will neither honor
them nor do them good. In reference
to Dr. Earley's votes on bills before
the Legislature, to get a correct under
standing of tiie course which lie took
it is necessary to read the portions of
tiie Bills to which lie objected. The
iiile of a bill gives no idea as to w hat
the provisions of the bill may be. For
instance a Bill may be entitled, "An
Actio provide for "the payment of the
public debt." As fur us would appear
iu this title any one would pronounce
it very laudable. Butsuppusc the Bill
went on to provide for paying the
public debt by confiscating a sufficient
amount of private properly to raise the
money. '1 he Bill would evidently be
all wrong although that fact would
not siiow iu the tiiie. Now, our impar
tial friend eives iu the pamphlet fc'eti-
eraliy only the title of the Bills, and
only iu one instance the part ol the
Bill to which the Doctor objected, and
although his objections can be found
in the l.eginlatue Kecord ami should
have been minted entire in order lo
place bis record fully before the people,
still the pamphlet does not in any iu-i-lance
give ids objection.
Page 0 of the pamphlet gives sections
3, 8, &, 12, und page repeals sect ion H,
of the Kill article of the new consti
tution und pages (S, 7,8, 0, and 10 com
ments upon the Doctor's course in re
gard to tho suiiK-, apparently all
quoted front the Chutnjiiun This
whole muss amounts to nothing.
Every law passed must conform iu its
provisions with tiie provisions of the
constitution, and no law would be de
clared valid by any court iu the State
which did not so conform with the
constitution.
The bill particularly complained of
has been culled the 'Ant-discriniina-tion
Bill," und purported to have been
drawn in conformity with the
new constitution adopted in 174.
Now in the Constitution itself the
fact is made clear that the constitution
is not binding upon those corporations
which weie chartered previous to its
adoption by the people, unless those
corporations have voluntarily come
forward und accepted its provisions.
The same is true of any legislation
affecting their corporate rights.
In a suit against t lie Pennsylvania
road the company defended on the
ground that they had never accepted
i lie benefit of any legislation under
the new constitution. The case was
decided adversely to the company in
the lower court, but tho (Supreme
Court reversed this decision, thus
declaring the company's defence in
tho lower court to be good.
The Pennsylvania railroad, the
Philadelphia and Erie road, und
nearly every important road iu the
State were chartered previous to the
adoption of tho new constitution and
have not accepted its provisions.
These are the very roads which it was
intended to reach by this bill; but
iu view of the above decision of the
(Supreme Court, even if it Imd become
a law none of them would have been
subject to it. Moreover, section 8, of
the bill, which was the part objected to
by the J)octor,was so drawn a jrievKa-
bly to Injure the business of tho State
without any compensating advan
tages. The next clas3 of blls mentioned in
the pamphlet are for free pipe lines.
Nearly all of these bills provide for the
taking of land from their proper
owners and without the consent of
the owners. This procedure is to a
limited extent allowed in the case of
railroads because of their In-ing public
highways, but no one can claim that a
pipe lino is a public; highway, anl
for that reason legislatures have
rightfully donioil to awh corpora
tions the right of eminent domain
which belongs only to the State.
This refusal however does not pre
vent such companies from purchas
ing the right of way from those
land owners who are willing to sell.
The next piece of badness for Dr.
Earley mentioned in the pamphlet
is his vote against the mine ventila
tion net. His reason for voting
against this bill was that it relieved
the company or operator from the
liability for injury sustained by the
miners in ease of certain accidents.
In other worjj? if a miner received
injuries under the former law lie
could recover damages Irom the
company, owner, or operator, but
under the mina ventilation act he
could g.?t none.
That tho Doctor's stand in this
matter was correct is shown by the
decision of the supreme court in a
suit against the Delaware and Hud
son Canal Co.,. in which the supreme
court say that the mining boss is not
an agent of the mine owner nor a
co-employer of a miner. His duties
are fixed by an act of Assembly
(The Mine Ventilation Act). Hence
for injuries resulting from neg
ligence of the mining boss a miner
or his representatives cannot recover
against the common employer.
Xext the phamplct quotes from
the Champion the "store order bill''
and the "riot bill." The latter is of
no interest in this section, and the
former has been fully explained in a
circular which is within reach of
everybody.
The Doctor's course upon these
bills was adopted for reasons which
were sound and will stand the test of
time.
In conclusion it may not be amiss
to say to this very impartial writer
that before he enters upon the com
pilation of another pamphlet it
would bo well for him to .lead up on
that little story about Annanias.
Tiie gentleman irom Jones who
found tho commandments so readily
can probably assist him in finding
the story. "
The Democrat says: "Brown is
opposed to ring rule.'' "Where does his
strength lie if not with the Elk county
ring.
The Democrat of last week says:
"Brown was nominated by the
people." Well if they the ring man
agers are the people then the Dr.m
oertit is right ot herwise it tells an untruth.

"Don't know half their Value "
"They cured mo of Ague, Bilious
ness and Kidney Complaint, us recom
mended. I had a half bottle left
which I used for my two little girls,
who the doctors and neighbors said
could not be cured. I would have lost
both of them one night if I hud not
given them Hop Bitters. They did
them so much good I continued their
use until they were cured. That is
why I say you do not know hall the
value of II. ip Bitters, and do not re
commend them high enough." B ,
