And now it is our tarn to "advance a
proposition. II the late I h airman of the
Democratic County Committee wasn t lost
n Shade townshin. as reported alter the
election, he was at least ket. to a consider
able degree, to his sense of honor. The
day of the election it was agreed upon that
the Republicans of the borough should pay
x dollars, and the Democrats four, to
have ibe telegraph office kept open, ia or
der to get the returns that night. The
RepaMicans paid their assessment prompt-
y and cheerlullv, but the DeoxcraU were
a little slow. Finally the Chairman offer
ed to obligate h'mseit tor their share, bat
the operator refused to take his obligation
nnles he would give additional socarity.
A prominent Republican present said be
would bail the De trior rats of the borough
for the amount, and Monday morning be
was called upon to pay that amoant, which
he did like a little man. The late Chair
man. upon being called upon, said that
'the news had come in adversely tor his
party, acd be wouldn't ask any ot them to
contribute." Well, the news sms a little
adverse ; there was not much consolation
to be gathered for them, and the majori
ty in the county was orr four hundred ;
but still, honor ia honor, and we think the
Democrata at the bornagh cms scarcely af
ford to be so disgraced f the sake of wr
ing a few paltry dollar. Woe onto lae.
late Chairman, it would have been better
far tbee had thou it en kst in the wilds uf

brain in the vain idea that be may be able
to decide upon some appropriate Chmuuas

mashed. It he knew the size of the
finger upon which she wears ber rings he
ouid invest in a band ot piain or engrav

The crowing grain crop throughout our
township looks promising ; it is in belter
condition than il was last tall, especially
the "Chili w hen" looks splendid and the
farmers who sowed ttat kind are well saU
iciied ao fjr with the experiment.
Apples in our section were never so
plenty before, some of our tarmers have
made from seventy to seventy-five barrels
f Cider, and nave besides stored u their
cellars from 5 IX) lo GOJ bushels of apples
lor future use.
Better limes are com'.ni ; ia fact tbey

the farmers are well satisfied and feel very
happy
It is rumored irounJ. and correctly too.
that a teacher in our township, carries a
pistol in bis pocket, while teaching in the
school room, and at dinner time be and

week his pistol slipped out of his pocket
and fell on the fUxu exploding the cap and
discharging the contents of one of the bar

he query with the rood people is. what in
ibe ihonder does a school teacher want
with a revolver ia the school room? I
read an account a year or so ago of a school
earner way down in Mississippi, where
the people mock at morality, loyalty, civ

o" -pUtols to antne go.il purp.e in the
iol room, but in a State like Pennsyl

be masses are loyal and civil and Chris
