The Pattison people are losing their
grip. They -are boasting about their
majorities. Thi is the last card of the
defeated gambler. The tide ha turned
and is running strong against them, and
they foolishly hope to turn it by reck
less and wild boasts.

Good management ot almshouse af

It is of the greatest importance that
the Republicans should have a majority
of the next Legislature, as that body will
have to a.wisl in apportioning the Ptate
and in electing a United States Senator.
For thut reason, U for no other, every
Republican in the county should vote for
Miller and Weller.
Is there a Republican in Somerset
county who is not proud of its glorious
record? The "frosty sous of thunder"
are known throughout the State for their
fidelity to Republican principles, leart
by year our mrjirity ban increased, until
now our county is hailed as the Repub
lican star that never sets. This superb
record bag been male by unswerving
fidelity to principle and to regularly
made nominations. We cannot afford to
have this grand record blurred. Ppurn
the mugwump as yon did the copperhead
during the war. Stand by your organi
zation and j our principles, and we will
add another cubit to our political stature.
We have r-an to expect, says the
JV, and the Ptt?ion supporters reason
to fear, that the i-rofessiuiial Indcjend
ents against the Republican ticket will
be more than offset by the defection of
Democrats frcm the Pattison ticket. This
will be particularly pronounced in Phila
delphia. In addition to this the Repub
lican lines have been notably steadied
within the last two weeks. This will be
more and more apparent as the contest
closes in and the hopelessness of the
Democratic situation is still furtlier re
vealed. This great Republican State is
not to be lost this year.
Senator Delamater is called the Little
Mascot by his neighbors and friends in
Meadville, and it seems to be a peculiar
ly appropriate designation. All attempts
to make it appear that he is not popular
at home, and there is a large Republican
defection in Craw ford county, have brok
en down. These efforts have been ac
tively employed by the Democrat for
some time, but every statement made
on to niece as soon as a little light is
turned on it. The situation in Crawford
county promise an overwhelming major
ity Wtne Little Mascot among the peo
ple w ho know him best.
As w ill be seen by refertnee to the ac
tion of the Conference, published in an
other column, N. B. Critchfield has been
nominated as the Republican candidate
for Senator in this district. The confer
ence was an exceedingly amicable one,
and the nomination was concurred in
and heartily ratified by the opposing
candidates, who were all present at the
final determination of the contest. Mr.
Critchfield is too well known throughout
this county to require from us a single
word of personal commendation. This
is the third time he has been selected for
important public txiti.n, having been
elected County Superintendent of Public
Schools and Prothonotary of the county
His present nomination is eipivalent to
an election in this .trong Republican dis
tric. After a full, fair canvass the Repub
licans of thiseonntv selected him as their
candidat", and that selection has been
coneurrel in by the representatives of
the party in the district, who, apart from
his personal merits, conceded the nomi
nation as due this co'inty, in accordance
with the rule of rotation which has been
adhered to for a number of year. As
said before, his election is an assured fact,
but we bespeik for him a full and hearty
support Let all persomil animosities, if
there We any, e laid aside, and let us all
uphold hs hands w ith a full and solid
vot-. His duties w ill be very important ;
he will have it in his power to do much
in the intere t of the people of this dis
trict, and aid and backing at home will
give him strength and influence in the
councils of the State.
As the day of election approaches, the
boasting of our opponents increases, and
the most extravagant claims are being
put forth in behalf of Mr. Pa'tisin. It
has always been thus with our friends,
the enemy. Brag and bluster goes a
great way with them, but wc have never
known it in any way to aplit the Repub
lican party, or even pwceptibly affect its
vote. With our splendid majority in this
State, it looks like the heighth of folly
to pay attention to the reckless claims of
the adversary. In our judgment they
are not intended for any other purpose
than to bolster up the weak-kneed and
ignorant brethren of their own faith.
People of any sense will tire of butting
their beads against a atone wall, and our
Democratic friend have so long and so
fruitlessly tried the experiment that it
requires a good deal of faith and a vast
deal of shouting and encouragement to
induce them to try it once more, w ith
the hope of upturning or breaching the
wall. We all remember with w hat wry
face the nomination of Pattison was re
ceived, and how the old, btrd-ehvll Dem
ocrat shut their teeth and muttered
"cue worda"; how Wallace, their leader,
hied him across the seas, and how Patti
son and Black, that incongruous pair,
wbo heretofore had pulled contrary wise
in the same yoke, looked at each other
with blood in their eyes, and Kerr, a
heretofore Wallace man, was ruthlely
slaughtered for Congress for becoming
chairm in of the State Committee. Part-'
discipline, however, was soon brought
into action ; the command wa given Cj
"fall in!" Wallace was called back fr.n,
Europe to make a perfunctory speech 1 1,
show that he was in line, and then re tired
on the plea of ill health. Pattii-. a
and Black were sent together to traverse
the State. "Claim everything," was the
order, and the campaign began. And
what a campaign ! ! It can lie compared
to nothing else than .an old time Chinese
battle, which consisted principally in
beating huge gong and throwing "stink
pots." If the enemy was not scared into
running by the frightful noise or killed
by the dreadful atink, the army retired
in good order, repaired their gongs and
refilled their pots, and awaited for an
other campaign.
So it i to-day with the Democrats.
Tbey are noisily and energetically beat
ing liietr gongs and casting their "stink
pots" into our camp, and so they will
continue to do until the fourth day of
November, when they will retire dis
mayed at their dismal failure, and com
mence repairing their favorite weapon
of warfare for uae in the next campaign.
TnK Itepiiblican Ongrewicnal Confer
ence wet at Altoona Wednesday evering

day evening, when, no nomination being
made, an adjournment was had to Ebens
burg at 7:20 Monday evening. No nomi

Do the Republican of Somerset county
know that a a met sneaking attempt i
be-
ins made to steal from them their preet
'g"
and their power? Do they know that
certain professed Republican have enlist
ed in the Tattison rank and are quietly
doing everything in their power to rednce
the majority for onr State ticket? If
they do not, we can assure them that
undoubtedly these things are troe. Pat
tison campaign literature is being indus
triously circulated, not ' only from the
headquarters of that gentleman, but by
certain disgruntled, so-called Republican
in onr midst. We caution all goad Re
publicans against this stealthy and on-J
manly warfare. Tbere is no claim now,
as there was in 18S2, when John Stewart
was supported by many Republicans,
that they were sustaining a good Repub
lican, although that support indirectly
led to Pattison' election. Now the bald
attempt is being made to influence Re
publicans to vote directly for Pattison,
the regularly nominated Democratic can
didate. We ask Republicans, one and all, to
rks above the pettv slanders that have
as usual been thrust into this campaign,
and stand by the principles and the can
didates of their party. Let all personal
animosities and bickerings cease; let per
sonal preferences for the time being De
laid aside, aad let all heartily unite in a
cordial support of our State, district and
countv ticket There is too much at
stake now ; too much that is dear to
every true Republican heart, to be sacri
ficed on the altar of personal spite and
spleen. On the election of a State Sena
tor and of Representatives depend tne
election of a United States Senator. Our
entire county ticket is secure, but it
should be remembered that the scratch
ing of any single candidate, or worse
still, the idea that he may be defeated,
will unfavorably affect the entire ticket,
and may lead to disaster and permanent
ly shake our party organization on which
so much depends. As with an aimy in
the field, straggling and desertion is a
curse to organization. The true soldier
always rallies to the standard when the
fight is on. This battle is for an empire,
for the righfeof the Republican party to
hold and rule what it has won in fair
battle. No true party man, no man
worthy the name of Republican, no fair,
manly man will desert the standard and
go over to the enemy at the solicitation
of a few sore-bead politicians who place
self before principles and party. We
appeal to every and all Republican to
rally to the standard which was planted
in the fore front by Abraham Lincoln.
PRESS COMMENTS.
From tb Laocatter Newa,
Not the leasl amusing feature of the pres
ent campaign is the statement of the Demo
cratic organs that the Republicans are about
to purchase enough votes to elect a Republi
can Governor. This chestnut la so ludicrous
that to treat it seriously would make it more
laughable. With a sure majority of from
50,ou0 to 8O.IJO0 the IU-publicans of Pennsyl
vania would be foolish to spend their money
for Democratic votes. The votes may be
for sale, but they are not needed.
From the I'niontown Standard.
The head of the small band of Philadel
phia kickers against Delamaler is Wharton
Barker. Barker wauled to be secretary of
the treasury but failed, and has ever since
been waiting for an opportunity to kick.
The head of the kickers in central Pennsyl
vania is Lewis Emery, Jr. He wanted to go
to congress, but was defeated in June for the
nomination for congress in his own county
of McKean, by the late Congressman Watson
of Warren. Immediately be donned his
war paint as a "reformer." Wbo believes
that Wharton Barker would be against Del
amater to-day but for bis disappointment at
not getting a cabinet place, under President
Harrison ? Wbo does not know that Lewis
Emery would not be supporting Pattison to
day if he had not failed in his congressional
ambition ? 3uch is the hypocrisy of this new
born zeal for reform ! Disappointment in
getting an office, from a cabinet position
to a little postoilioe or storekeejiership is at
the bottom of it all,
From the Philadelphia Press.
The address of the Republican State Com
mittee to the Republicans of Pennsylvania
calls the party to an aggressive light during
the remainder of the campaign. It present
in clear and unmistakable language the is
sues up n which the pending contest is to be
determined, and tbey are such as to arouse
very Republican to bis duty, to his party,
his State and bis country.
There has been enough of defense. Every
question of vital importance that haa been
raised against the party or its candidates has
been fully and satisfactorily answered. Tbs
campaign of personal slander, whicU.has
reached the lowest level in attempts to wreck
personal character; the vicious assaults
upon the Republican standard-bearers, re
newed afier sufficient answer has been Riv
en over and over again ; the labored efforts
to turn the canra from one of party prin
ciple into one of personal issues, cannot be
countenanced by fair minded men.
These methods, as degrading as they are
dishonest, have alreaJy recoiled upon those
who invented them and -must bring confu
sion to all who employ them. If the sole is
sus in tbil campaign were the personal fit
ness of Senator Delarniter and ex-Governor
Pattison there would then be a sufficient is
sue to keep every Republican loyal to bis
ticket. But there is mre than that. It is
an iame of psrty policy, and upon that th
Republican party his never failed to com
mand the confidence of the people because
it is riht, and the Democratic party has in
vited distrust because it is always wrong.
From the beginning of the campaign the
opposition hai sought to run away from ev
ery question which it has raised as a party
in the nation, and upon which it has here
tofore conducted its campaigns in this State.
It has shreiked and ignored it own plat
form, in which it has declared for that
which is antagonistic to the industrial inter
ests of Pennsylvania It prasenta itself to
the people on a subterfuge, well knowing
that its success if euch were possible
would be heralded throughout the country
as a defeat of the Republican policy of pro
tection in the great protection 8tate of the
Union.
The address of the Republican State Com
mittee sounds tbs alvanoe all along the Re
publican line. It means no m re explana
tions or defense. It brings every true Re
publican into the front line to earnest battle
for all that the Republican pirty represents
and for the candidates who represent the
party in its best sense. No sincere Republi
can can hesitate in his duty now, and no sin
cere Republican will.

PATTISCN PILLCR1ED,
CHAIRMAN ANDREWS' MAGNI
FICENT ADDRESS!
The Damocwtic Candidate and Boa"
as Shown Up in Their Trua Light
-The Issues of tha Campaign.
Chairman Andrews, Thursday issued the
following address, which isbrimfu! of truths,
and presents tbe political situation in a man
ner not to be misunderstood :
Tit the lUpvMiaw of PenntvliHla :
Tbe tViin-ylvaiiia campaign of 1330 will
pass into history as one wholly devoted on
tbe part of the Democratic candidates and
leaders to personal abase of Republican can
didates and leaden. This plan of campaign
was deliberately adopted in New York, and
it is to this hour under toe direction of Xew
York leaders and almost wholly in ihe inter
est of Cleveland. His faction dominates the
councils of his party, and every effort is bent
in tbe direction of another nomination of
himself aud an Kher crusa ie iu favor of Free
Trade. That element of tbe Democracy
which, under the leadership of Rsndall, be
lieved in a tariff for revenue with incidental
protection, was attacked by the Cleveland
Administration. The Stale Chairman, in tbe
person of Dallas Sanders, was defeated by
tbe use of tbe money of the millionaire,
William L. Scott, and liberal promises ot
offices by Cleveland, and since then the en
tire organization has been directed in the line
of studied assault upon tbe American sys
tem of Protection aud constant advances
toward Free Trade.
A TALK Or TaKACUEKT.
Recall the faction of strife which brought
this result. How Mr. Harrity, one of the
bosses of tbe Democratic party in Pennsyl
vania, betrayed bis friend Rmdali and turn
ed all tbe micbinery of the post office at
Philadelphia against his political patrons;
how Cadwalader did tbe same with tbe cus
tom House; how only Col. Gerker and Mr.
Fox remained true to ibe interests and views
of Mr. Randall. Three beads were too noble
for the ax, but thousands of others fell be
cause tbey blocke 1 Cleveland's pathway to
Free Trade. Tbe leaders of tbe Cleveland
faction in Philadelphia were Pattison, Cassi
day, and Sir.gerly, and it was at tbe bidding
of this trio of bosses that all who opposed tbe
Free Trade plan were sa-ritiaed. The va
qpney occasioned by tbe death of one of the
leaders has been filled by Harrity, who is far
less able, and we ought to say less reliable,
because of his betrayal of his patron, Mr.
Randall. This trio, wbo accepted and is
carrying out tbe New York plan,' intended
to capture Pennsylvania in 18!X), upon per
sonal abuse, so all the world may point to
the fact that tbe mother of the Tariff has
rejected ber offspring.
If the Republican majorities are reduced
this will be tbe cry, starting with the Phila
delphia Record, passing through all of the
Democratic Free-Trade journals of New York
and in tbe land, and closing with the ap
proving smile of tbe London Timet. Tbe
recent great battle in Congress had its mean
ing, aud it should be made so pUin by all
Republicans that none may misunderstand
it
BlTTLtS rOB PB0TECTIOR.
The first protective battle was for tbe Ad
ministrative bill, which preveuta all frauds
upon the customs; the second, for tbe Me
Kinley bill, which shows more complete
adoption of the system of Protection thai?
any measure ever before conceived. Every
Ftee Trade influence was arrayed agaist it,
and so desperate did its enemies become
that tbey invited and received tbe protests of
foreign nations. Unable to deceive Ameri
can sentiment they aroused the bostilities of
foreign rivals in our home marvels. More
than this, the Democratic minority deliber
ately planned a scheme to filibuster tbe
measure to death, if possible, and, failing
that, to cause such a prolonged delsy that
their friends, the importers, could be ena
bled to forstall for months the market for
American manufactures. They did this to
tbe extent of $(0,000,000 worth of goods,
and, in this way, through their greed for
money and tbeir hatred of anything, bow
ever patriotic, which interfered with their
getting it, gave the lie to their owu profes
sions. Tbe enemies of the McKinley bill
confessed in advance that it would protect
American industry. Then tbey hastened to
import all tbey possibly could, and they did
this to an extent which will prevent all of
its beneficent effects from being realized
until tbe elections of this fall shall have
passed. We see first every effort to prevent
Protection ; next, every eff rt to Sank it,
finally, every effort to vitiate for such length
of time as will enable the advocates of Free
Trade to prepare for renewed agitation of
the subject, and for new assaults and appeals
for modification or repeal. Herein all can
plainly see tbe national bent of the struggle
to capture Pennsylvania in 1890. It is tbe
hope of importers everywhere, and they are
contributing liberally to tbe personal cam
paign inaugurated by the local trio of slander.
SLASDIREBt IS OOTa t.
Tbere is a New York organization of like
character, and iu organs are the New York
World tbe Pud and the Time. The special
object of its assault is Senator Quay, simply
because be is one of the acknowledged Re
publican leadera. Eery charge against him
is false, and no man living will rise and say
that he has personal knowledge of tbeir
truth. Men are hired to circulate these
bitter scandals and tbe Pharisaical part of
the Pennsylvania outfit is busy searching
for men and liberally paying them for giving
circulation and countenance to statements,
the truth of which they have no personal
knowledge of whatever. Men wbo do this
dishonor American manhood.
The State trio of Democratic bosses re
serves for its special work assaults upon tbe
clraracter of Senator Delamater, and has in
vited the aid of a few men who have been
notoriously disappointed in aspirations far
too high for their desert. The slime of slan
der has been spread over the State iu the
hope of shaking tbe confidence of Republi
cans in their candidate for Governor. He
bas met every charge, bat as rapidly as he
meets them new ones are invented, and they
wil; be invented until tbe end. C haracter
less men have been suborned, and they will
try to earn tbe money of importers contrib
uted for this purpose, the truth was never
yet able to traval as last as tbe lie, and the
lie which has gold at iu heels surpasses its
usual speed. Tbe time for defence and de
nial should pass. That they have been made
complete and conspicuous are the natural
result of Pattison's invitation to his party to
make this campaign a personal one, and to
thus obsenre every National and State issue.
In no other way could be get even the vote
of bis own party, and there are grave doubts
of bis getting it as it is.

Few of tbe many Democratic soldiers of

the Soldiers' Burial bill and bis constant
vetoes of tbe measures projected by a Repub
lican Legislature Cor their. benefit. Benevo
lent men wbo see in our State's charities
beneficial institutions, will reject bim for bis
cruel, watitnn inconsideration to thiir just
claims. Broad minded men wbo witnessed
tbe low demagoguery of bis pretentious walk
to tbe inauguration will say that he is too
narrow to sit in the Executive chair of this
great Commonwealth. The blunder of his
executive session called for tbe sole, secret
purpose of wiping out tbe Congressional dis
trict of Mr. Randall, cost th Slate more
than half a million, and was but part of the
general plan to at least commit the Demo
cratic organization of Pennsylvania to all of
the purpose of the Free-traders. Not one of
the candidates on the 8tate ticket has yet
dared avow hi Democratic principles, and
tbeir general purpose is simply to deceive
Republicans without disgusting Democrats.
Mr. Wallace bastucb liule sympathy with
this scheme that he refuses to promote it,
and would not now be in accord with the
present plan did be not see in it a chance lo
capture the L-gialature, secure an election
lo tbe United Slates Senste, and a resppor
tionment of the Congressional and Legisla
tive districts, that tbe gerrymander in Ohio
may be repeated in Pennsylvania and our
Republicans robbed of fully half the repre
sentation which they now enjoy. That will
be tbe result of any surrender oa our part i

mm
ADSCliTELY PURE
''No,1 says tbe mugwump, who is almost
invariably a Free-trader, "Pattison was
elected in 82 and Blaine carried the State ia
'84. " Our answer is that if Beaver had been
elect d in '82 all the election villainies usual
to New York conld not have connted out
Blaine in '84, and so now, with Delamater
and the entire State ticket elected, the safety
of tbe McKinley bill is assured for at least a
decade.
SOME THINGS THAT CAS" BE POSE.
The Republican majority can be main
tained in both Houses of Congress ; a Re
publican President can be safely elected in
1892, and tbe best hopes of the party real
ized. A break in Pennsylvania may mean
the loss of all, and the man wbo permits
personal prejudices engendered in many in
stances by paid agents, in others by those
who would ask the world to shoulder thtir
ievenges,xommits a folly too great for com
prehension. This, folly will not find the
ignorance upon which it must feed within
tbe ran Irs of one great party, and one which
has seen many of its heroes maligned. Lin
coln shamelessly traduced as a baboon ;
Grant denominated a butcher, Logan an ig
noramus, Garfield a bribe taker, and so on
through a catalocue too long and too nasty
to command decent consideration.
The slanders against our chief standard
bearers all dead, all dispoved, are no longer
worthy of notice. Let us remand them to
tbe past and stamp them into the dirt from
which they sprang and where they belong,
and let us thus stamp all future lies, for to
our knowledge more are on the way. Let
us face the enemy without fear and meet
their invectives with fresh assault, and push
on to a victory like nnto that given to Hart
ran ft in '72, to Hoyt in '78, and to Beaver in
'HO, when similarly assaulted, and with cour
ageous purpose and ever closing ranks we
can and will do even better.
Tired of Mormonlam.
CuAiiBKRgBUBo, October 1C There was
glad home coming of fifteen people to Quin
cy township yesterday. A year ago eight
persons, with seven children, left Tomstown
for Utah. Tbey had imbibed tbe doctrines
of the Mormons from missionaries who bad
visited their homes, and believed that the
Mormon religion and the Mormon country
would speedily better their spiritual and
physical beings. Tbey sold at a f serines all
their property in this county and went to
Utah.
Stephen McFerren was the leader and
with bim went his family and his friends.
Yesterday Mr. McFerren led his little band
of followers back to Tomstown, poorer in
every way than when they bad left Quincy
township, but .determined never more to
leave it at the instigation of Mormon mis
sionaries. In Utah they were assigned to a
home in a valley between mountains so
high that ths sun shone upon tbeir dwell
ing but four hours in a day.
Shot hla Wife and Himself.
Boston, Oct. 18. About 6 o'clock this
morning Daniel H. Wilson, aged forty-three
residing at No. 702 Leveret te street, shot bis
wife, Annie in tbe left temple while she was
in bed, killing ber. He then s'lot himself
in tbe breast, inflicting a possibly fatal
wound, ne was a driver for tbe Adams
Express Company, and two weeks ago was
taken ill and had been confined to his bouse
ever since. He was a faithful man and it is
thought despondency caused his rash act. -

TJ. S. Gov't Report, Aug. 17, 1889.
Will Llkelaly Repeat.
History is very likely to repeat itself iu
the jo-called Independent Republican move
nt ;cit now so noisily engineered in this State
for the benefit of ex Governor Pattison. its
inspiration, life and noise con e wholly from
soured and disappointe I men hka Wharton
Barker, Ma pea, Emery, Kutan, 8am Loach,
Sam Dick. ex-Supt. Wickersbain, etc., every
one smarting under some personal grievance,
and now playing into the hands of tbe
enemy, and seeking the destruction of tbe
party that has heretofore honored them with
its offices and honors, and made them all
that they are or ever have been in political
life. Revolution to be snerfuV must
have high, honorable and patriotic motives
to propel them, and not merely those of a
sordid, selfish and disappointed character.
Eighteen years a-p, in tbe National cam
paign of 72, when sumner, Cbae, Greeley,
Trumbull, Grata Brown, Scbu-a, McClure,
Curtin, etc- kicked np tbeir heels, and or
ganized the revolt againt4 tbe re election of
Gen. Grant, the country fairly held its breath
on account of the formidable array of emi
nent and distinguished kicker?, and looked
for a political upheaval the like of which
had never been seen or beard of. And yet,
when tbe motives actuating ths revolt, came
to be analyzed, and it was found that every
one was nursing some private grievance or
other, the movement weakened, and finally
collapsed, with the resnrt, that the "silent
soldier" was te-electcd by tbe largest popular
and electoral majority ever given to any can
didate for President. The revolt now on,
and fostered aud guided by Emery, Mapes,
Losch t Co., will not unlikely have an end
ing similar to tbe one notei above when the
ballots come to be counted in November.
