From the IWford Inquirer. The Senatorial conference of the 3rith district convened at the Arlington Hotel on the isth inst The conference organized by the elec tion of W. Scott Mullen, of Hyudiuan, Bedford county, as chairman and Dr. 11. D. Moore, of New Lexington, Somerset county, and Dr. A. D. lialbey, of Mc Connelsburg, Fulton county, as secreta ries.

Edwards, of Fulton were presented as candidates for the nomination. The first bullot resulted in 3 votes for each candidate. After a short discussion a second ballot resulted in 0 for Edwards and 3 for Ashcom ; Somerset and Fulton voting for Edwards and Bedford for Ash- com. The nomination was then made unanimous and the conference adjourned. The nominee, Allison S. Edwards, was born in liecemlier, 1S49 in Wells town ship, Fulton county, which at that time was still a part of Bedford county, on the farm on which he now resides He was educated in the public school of the coun ty and Millersville Normal schools, after which he spent 13 years teaching in the public schools of the county. For the past numlier of years he has lieen engaged in farming. Mr. Edwards h:is always been an ardent Republican and lias sev eral times lieen a candidate on the coun ty ticket, sacrificing time and money in a hojH'less tight to overcome the Democrat ic majority of Fulton county. His popu larity in his native county is proven by the fiict that he always made a good run whenever on the ticket Being au agriculturalist, and a progres sive, intelligent man he will worthily represent this district in the Senate and we are confident that the conference has placed the interests of our Senatorial dis trict in good hands and we bespeak for him the hearty support of the Republi can voters of the district. Our Senatorial Candidate. From the Fulton H -publican. The Senatorial Conference of this dis trict met at IWford on Monday last and, on the second liallot, nominated Allison S.

Edwards Esq., our candidate for Senator, is well and favorably known to the people of the entire county. Mr. Edwards was bora and brought up on a farm in Wells Valley. Ptwsewsing fine natural abilities aided by a liberal edu cation and a well trained logical mind, his nomination has certainly lieen a wise one. Asa Justice of the Peace, which position he held one term by election, in the Democratic township of Wells he discharged the duties with care, fairness, aud with entire satisfaction to alL In his business intercourse, as an insurance agent. In which business he is now en gaged in connection with farming, he has made many friends among his fellow citizens oflsith parties In fact Mr. Ed wards is a dignified gentleman of sterling qualities, honest, callable, earnestly Re publican and one upon whom the ops sition cannot say a detrimental word, either directly or implied.

That Isjats rais ing wheat, all hollow. The average ed itor don't know much about farming, we admit, but it don't require a very brainy one to point out the fact that if farmers want to make money these days they will have to devote less attention to w heat and more of it to truck raising. fruit culture and the like. The Juniata county farmers, according to a state ment mtde to us a few days ago, will this year realize 100,WN on their peach mp alone, which is equivalent to over jo for every man, woman and child in the county. The cultivation of the peach can Is? effected with the same success in Huntingdon county as in Ju niata, the soil lieing very much similar and the climatic conditions exactly alike. Our advice to the farmers of Hunting don county is go into the more profit able lines of farming, quit raising so much wheat, and adopt the plan of the farmers of Juniata county, who are now prospering as they never did before.

Oa he lau-k of its shell was carved the representation of our national flag. Under f this patriotic emblem was the figure of a musket and sword, crossed, with the date and place of inscription as follows : "Get tesburg, lsil." The soldier who was off duty long enough to do the decorating on j this longcval tortoise was just a little back in his orthography of the famous liatlle- field. However, the work is plain enough , to give evident that the aged terrapin was on the liattle field, and having suc cessfully dodged all dangerous shots lias ived to enjoy the distinction of an honor ed veteran. No doubt he was on his way to join in the last festivities of the encamp ment at Pittslmrg when captured. His slow locomotion, however, had caused him to lie a few days liehind time. If his health and appetite continue good, he may yet attend a score of reunions ls?fore age obliterates the traces of his patriotic zeaL Indeed, he would now lie on his way down the Yough to attend the en campment at Louisville, were he not a prisoner. fbWjtri' fVsn'cr. The Land of Promise Is the mighty West, the land that "tickled with a hoe laughs a harvest ;" the EI Dorado of the miner; the goal of the agricultural emigrant While it teems with all the elements of wealth and prosperity, some of the fairest and most fruitful portions of it bear a harvest of malaria reaped in its fullness by those unprotected by a medicinal safeguartL No one seeking or dwelling in a malarial locality is safe from the scourge withtsit Hostetter's Stomach Bitters Emigrants bear this in mind.

Poster Harder Will Oat At Greensburg, S-;turd:iy morning, a second degreo verdict was returned by the jury In tho case of Harry Hatch, charged with the murder of Christopher Lave. The case attracted much attention bouause of the social standing of the de fendant One morning In September, lfWJ, the two young men left their homes at Perry Station to go shooting on the ridge. Each carried a gun. Iu the even in; Hatch returned alone. Love did not appear. His friends liecame alarmed and the next morning a search was insti tuted. The searchers found the body of Love lying near a fence in a thicket A ballet hole in his head told the cause of his death. Buside him lay his gun, the barrel empty. It was generally lsdieved that the young mau had shot himself in climb ing the fence, but there were people who held suspicion of foul play, and those who knew the details of a love affair that had crossed the lives of the two young men were firm in the Isdief that young Live had been murdered. It is alleged that the two young men, several weeks previous to Love's death, had fallen in love with a young lady from Johnstown, who was visiting at Derry. The lady ex hibited the kindest of feeling for lioth at first, but during the last few days of her stay her preference seemed to lie for Love. A few days before the hunting expedition was arranged. Love is said to have received a letter from the Johns town girL It contained an invitation to call and see her. Hatch and Love were apparently good friends Recently Tommy Hatch formed the ac quaintance of a young lady, a telegraph operator, stationed near Derry. To her several months ago, he told that it was he who shot Love, but that hi gun was ac cidentally discharged. The story was told to the mother of Love and she im mediately caused his arrest.
