Our candidate for Congress, "old Gen
eral Juke Caniplicll. was next to the fore
with the finest speech we have ever heard
him make. He had crammed himself
with olliiial documents with w hich to re
fute the statements General Cofiroth and
Val II ty had made the night before from
"Spollord.sJAlmanac, " Thurtnan's speech,
and like documents. Gen. "Jake" got
his "mad up" at some things that had been
said about his record, at the Democratic
meeting, and the way he skinned the
Democrats and vindicated his record made
the crowd cheer wilh delight His state
ment of why he bad voted against the
silver bill was so clear, and his reasons
were so strong that even the most obtuse
were convinced. In fact, it wad a rattling
good speech, clear, 6trong and convincing,
and his Somerset county constituents made
up (heir minds that a man who had such
clear views and who had such a consistent
record was just the man who ought to go
Imck to Congress. We don't want to make
any rath statements, but if Somerset coun
ty -does not give "honest old Jake" as
large a majority us she did two years ago,
we w ill be badly disappointed. Generals
Hoyt and Campbell confined their remarks
to the limineial ipioxiion, and itlthotigh the
crowd listened to, applauded aud appre
ciated their efforts, it wanted something on
lonil poUtii, and from a home man.
"Koontz "Koontr '." came from all
ijuiirtcrs of the house, aud with it came
our neighbor, fresh as a daisy, lor another
round wilh the hosts of Democracy. His
idea that the Democratic party would only
go out of eiist"nce with original sin
was approved and applauded to the echo;
but there were other "fish to try." and al
ter devoting a few minutes to his old ene
mies, he read the following letter, written
by an ex-Associate Judge, who was elect
ed to office by the liepublican party and
who only commenced to cry when that
iarty reiuseu to put any more pnp in his
spoon:

many a speech, but never have wc heard

that the Republicans of Somerset county

Geo. W. lienfuid, (be it remembered,

P.xir Hay, we pitied him. He looked
sn willed, so dried up, nnd his financial
ideas were so wild that wc no longer
wondered why he had been taken from
tiie poulie-al held and safely stowed away
on the mow. His views on the currency
were wild enough to disgust Mostoller
and make that staunch Greenbaeker, L.
A. l urner, smile in derision. It was not
for his financial heresies, however, wc
pitied him. To him had been assigned
the dirty work of tho meeting ; and the
manner in which he pandered lo the
whiuis and oddities of any and all that he
he thought might be induced to support
Coiiroth, was disgusting, lie hatl no
wort! ef commendation for the principles or
policy ot the Democratic party, but was as
ardently in love with, and hugged to his
bosom the illegitimate oflspring ol the To

as a mother her child.

commene-ed to leave. A careful iw!l of
the audience showed ninety-three persons

were Keptibhcacs attracted thither by cu
riosity. The General was as mild as a

Let
the
ew Centreville Items. As
our village has not been heard of through
the columns ot your worthy pape-r for
some lime, I w ill try and give you a few
items.
Our village is (iuiet. and everybody
seems to be busy, and nil have plenty to
tlo. On last Saturday the members of the
different denominations j.a. o a union pic
uic. They met at their respective church
es and marched with their classes to the
Lutheran church where they were ad
dressed by aide speakers. At eleven
o'clock the different Sunday-schools, with
their pastors ut the head, marched to the
grove, a short dittanaj from town, whore
they found many baskets filled with pro
visions. In a short time the tables were
all loaded to their fullness with the best
the country could produce, and the conse
quence was a union pic-nic, so called by
the heads ot the churches. If a strauirer
could have hiippened iu just at that time
and seen the three diflerent tables, and the
material ot each Sunday school seated
around its own table, he would have been
sure to liken the union pic-nic unto the
three great parties of the day, the He-publicans,
(Reforms), the Democrats, (Disci
ples), nnd the Labor-Hcfonn or Green
back, (Lutheransi. And here and there
in the shade of the sturdy oak. could be
seen seated around their own tables per
sons that seemed to be at a loss to know
which party to join; and the electioneer
ing not being very strong from either par
ty, they remained where they were unlil
after dinner. Then came the union part
of the pic nic, when young and old, rich
and oor, and persons ot ait classes united
in the sports of the day, such as croquet,
rini, hindmost of three, and numerous
other sjiorts. At last one young lady was
heard to say, ' I here they come, see them.
see them I" And sure enough, they did
come; a baker's doxen iu number. They
proved to be a company 1 1 Calithumpians.
all on horse-back. As they came into the
grove the lolks forgot their plays and look
ed upon the crowd ol masked' men with
astonishment. Tho party rode back and
forth a few times through the grove, then
they went to the village and performed
through the principal streets, and then at
last they were sent to the west ward, and
no more was seen of them that day. The
sport in the grove was kept up all day or
until sundown, when they adjourned.
Late in the evening could be seen yonng
men escorting their lady loves to their
homes. The remark made by every one
was, "We had a good time, didn't we."
The Tedrow boys have opened a Nor
mal school in this place. The boys spent
the summer in Ohio, at the Mt Union
College, and came back well prepared to
instruct the rising generation. The school
numbers at present fifty scholars, and it
will no doubt number sixty before another
week.
On last Friday night the Normal stu
dents organized a society to be known as
the New Centreville Literary Society. The
house was wtll-fil'ed, and all persons did
exceedingly well. Centreville has the
name of having the best societies in the
county, and we propose making tliis the
leading oue. We meet every Friday
night, and invite all to conic. We will
try and give them some good information
that will doubly pay them for their trouble
of spending aa evening with us.

Doomed Mollies. Another chapter in
the history of the Mollic Maguires is near
in? its completion by the conviction at
Sunbury, Pa., of Peter McManus and
John O'Neil for the murder ot Frederick
Hesser. and judging from present appear
ance there will soon lie some more start
ling developments, as Mrs. McManus, the
wiie of one of ihe condemned men, is un
derstood to have said that in case her hus
band goes to the gallows she will furnish
some more candidates for hemp, an arga
mcnt by the popular method of squealing.
As her husband was a Body Master of
high standing during a part of the Mollic
reign it is thought she will lie able to car
ry her threat into execution.
There is a feeling of sympathy for
O'Neil, who is rather a young and cot a
bad looking man; and, basing their asser
tion on the well-known fact that he is not
of a strictly sound miud, many have ex
pressed dissatisfaction at his late, and a
genuine pity tor himself and family. He
does not apjicar to realize tho position in
which he is placed, and when questioned
about it gives no decided answer. It is
said that he is sane enough to know that
bio act was an unlawful one, and should
be dealt with accordingly. McManus,
when interviewed, emed to tako rather a
philosophical view of the matter, and, so
far, has not expressed any dread of hie ul
timate doom. He says that as they have
got him down now, he might as well make
the best ol it while he has the chance. A
motion for a new trial will be made at the
next term of court, but It has been stated
that Judge Itockafcllcr will refuse it.
