To the Voters of Forest County : i I find that iu many places through out the county the story has been cir culated, and I am surprised to think has gamed some credence, that J. M. Kepler is working iu my interest, and that the fact i3 understood by me. I wi.sh hereby to brand such staterueut as a most malicious and unwarranted falsehood. I have never had any con versation with Mr. Kepler iD any way, hhapo or manner regarding the office of County Treasurer, nor has he ever iutiuiated to me any intention to vote or work for my election. This story, of course, is told by my enemies with a view to injuring my prospects of election, aod I hope my friends will believe me when I say that the report from beginning to end is a malicious lie. I am willing to make affidavit to these facts, and if that is not sufficient to convince those who are and have been acquainted with me for years, then I am not worthy to hold the office of Treasurer.

The past few days have been such a3 to cause our people to huot up their last wiuter's flannels, bring out their ulsters, and cause tho female portion of the family to growl because that stove has not been set up yet. But never miud ; we haven't had our Indian Summer, although we've got Indiana, and are going to keep it, too. We can all stand a little cold snap after such glorious news.

We have the first Hancock flop per to hear of in Forest County, but two of the most promiucnt and influ ential Democrats of the county, Messrs. J. T. Brcnoan and D. B. Tobey have come out for General Garfield and the straight Republican ticket. This is not all, but ihey will bringothers with them. Welcome to the ranks, gentl men. The large barn of Andrew Stewart, on the top of the hill about a half mile this side of Newmansville was totally consumed by fire on Wednesday night last. All his Bummer's harvest, such as hay, grain, etc., and a large lot of farming implements were burued. A team of horses, a threshing machine, and a wagon belonging to Adam Mealy were also consumed. There being quite a number of men present during the day, threshing oats, it is supposed that the fire originated from a spark from some of the numerous pipes which were smoked on the occasion. Mr. Mealy 's loss will not be less than $300, while Mr. Stewarts is estimated at $1,500, with no insurance. Mr. W. R. Dunu, of Crookston; Minn., paid Tionesta a very short visit last week, arriving ou Thursday afternoon and departing the next morning. lie camo East to accom pany his wife and daughter home, who have been visiting here for several months. Mr. D.'s many old friends aud patrons in this community will be glad to learn that he was looking unu sually well, and is prosperous and happy. His paper the Clironicle, is rapidly increasing in subscription and advertising patronage, and is on a fair way to make his fortune and giow up with the prosperous West. We are sorry he rould not . make his stay longer, as were all those who met him, yet it was a good deal of satisfaction to meet him if only for a short time. May his business so flourish that he can afford to visit his eastern friends annually and stay longer. LINES Suggested by visiting tho popular store of Robinson A Eonner.- By S. 1). I.

But a little less than two weeks re main before the great November elec tions take place, and this being the case it is proper that we should review the ticket which our Republican friends are to support. Passing the Rational and State tickets by, for the eason that there is probably not a voter in the county who has not ere this fixed his choice, and will vote accordingly, we will take up the local candidates. Our candidate for Presi dent Judge, i Hon. Wm. D. Brown, of Warren, is one of the soundest and niost talented lawyers in the State, as is readily admitted by men of all parties. The office of the Judge of our courts is, we may say, the most important in the gift of the people, and should be filled by a conscientious, unbiased aud learned lawyer. We believe we speak the sentiments of all of Mr. Brown'f acquaintances when we say that ho fills these requirements to the letter. lie is a geutlemau of unimpeachable character, having a spotless record ; is kind, agreeable and pleasant, a man as near perfection as it is possible for the human heart to get ; is just in the stage of life when the mental facilities are the soundest aud clearest. With Wm. D. Brown as President of our courts wo would have a Judge second to none in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and one to whom we can all point with eminent pride and satisfaction. As to Judge Rasselas Brown, his opponent, we have nof. a word to say against his personal character or his legal attain ments, and there is no one who doubts but that he would fill the position with good satisfaction. Yet there ia one very important fact to be taken into consideration, and that is, that Judge Ii. Brown is in his sixty-ninth year ; ten years would rnako him nearly eighty years of age, which we consider is a very great objection to his election to the important office of President Judge. One other fact : The Green backers have endorsed Judge Brown ; he is a straight-out Democrat; they claim that politics has nothing to do with the Judgeship. If that is the case we can not see how they are bound by that endorsement, and we think they should have been left to act according to their own Jreo will. Give these facts a fair consideratioa, gentlemen, and we candidly believe William D. Brown will conoe ont of Foie6t County vith a good majority. Gen. Harry "White, our honored and talcuted member of Congress, is too well known to the peo ple of Forest county to cecd any puf fing from us. His record as State Senator, Member of the Constitutional Convention, and Member of Congress, is without spot or blemish. About the only thing his defaraers have had to say against him, is that he never did anything for Forest county. In tho name of Justice, we would ask what is there to do for Forest County? One thing our citizens should not lose sight of, and for which they should ever bold Gen. White in grateful remembrance, and that is, that his hand framed tho bill, while iu the Senate, thut erected Forest iuto a county. This is one glorious act which Gen. White did for the good of Forest County. Another is his persistent and untiring energies in securing an appropriation for the improvement of the navigation of the Allegheny River, something that will prove a blessing to the lumbermen and pilots of Forest County as long as there is a stick of limber left in her borders. He has watched over and cared for his district while in Congress as no man in that body ever has, and for which he has received at times the censure of his colleagues in Congress. As a de bater he has few equals in the halls of Congress, and is ready at any moment to get up and protect the interests of his constituents. Would it not, then, be better to return a man of this kind, in whose integrity and ability we all have confidence, than oue who has no record, and cannot say a word in de fense of his constituents, and has not a particle of influence when ho gets there? "Why, a mummy would repre sent us fully as well as James Mos grove. It ia claimed for him that he is a successful business man. Was there ever a close-fisted, miserly, grasp ing nun who did not succeed iu busi ness? Two years ago the Clarion Democrat called Mosgrove the "hero of Skin All furnace," meaning thereby that he skinned every man upon who he got his clutches. To-day that same paper ia booming fur him, aud making use of every means to defame General White. Mr. Mo?grove has no fixed btinciplcs; he attends and takes part in Democratic meetings oue night and the next night he is seen at the same business in Greenback meetings. He is certainly the greatest "what is it" we have ever seen trying to get into Congress. Vote for General Harry White, and have a Congressman to look after your interests who is capa ble and honest. E. L. Davis, Esq , our candidate for Assembly, possesses all the necessary qualities to represent us intelligently in the Legislature. He is an old resident of Forest county, and is thoroughly indentificd with the county, knows its every want, and will take care of its interests to the entire satisfaction of his constituents. He has maintained the respect of all his acquaintances, and to day stands high in the estimation of his neighbors and fellow citizens. He is a lawyer of more than ordinary abilities, and is rapidly advancing in the profession, and his knowledge of the lawe of our land will be of great beuefit to him iu the discharge of his duties as a legis lator. Mr. Davis is the man to rep resent us, for the reason that he is thoroughly acquainted with our needs and has the ability and backbone to stand up and fight for them ; he has the brains to detect a wrong, and the manhood to fight it. Mr. Davis is always found a pleasant and courteous gentleman, whether running for office or not. His conduct all through the campaign has been such as to com mand the highest respect from his op ponents, and his gentlemanly bearing has won for him a host of friends who will say amen to his election. He has never resorted to any trickery to obtain a vote, but has maintained a straightforwaid course from the be ginning. Mr. Davis has done nobly for the Republican parly in the past, and to its members we can say that he is entitled to the hearty support of every one of you, and we have every reason to believe he will get that sup port. If we want an honest, capable and wide awake man to represent us, and take care of our home interests let us elect E. L. Davis. Mr. Amza Purdy, of Green township, has been honored with the nomination for Associate Judge, and we can truthfully say that the honor was never more worthily beetowed upon a citizen of Forest county. He is a citizen"of over 50 years stauding, and in all that time has ever enjoyed the high esteem of his many friends. We doubt if he has an enemy in the world to-day ; if he has we havo never heard of one. He has voted the straight Republican ticket ever since the party sprang into life, and yet so quietly and decently has he treated his political op ponents that he has probably not an enemy iu that direction. Mr. Purdy deserves the hearty sup port of every Republican in Forest County, aud we hope, after the returns are counted, we can note the fact that he received such. We have heard it intimated that some Republicans were going to vote for Mr. Hill out of per sonal friendship. Gentlemen, this is wrong. If there is a man in the county who doservea your vote, that man is Amza Purdy. We have no objection to Mr. Hill, personally, but he is now a Grcenbacker, and has no claims up on you. Mr. Purdy has stood by you in past years and now that you have a chance to show your appreciation of his fidelity you should not fail to do so. As to Mr. Purdy'a fitness for the po sition there is no question, and if elect ed he will be au houor and credit, to the couuly. Vote for hitu, Republi cans and old friends, and bestow upon him the honors and emoluments of the office, which will do him good iu his old age. Mr. N. S. Forkman, our candidate fur County Treasurer, is one of the best men in tho county who could have beeu selected for this responsible position. He has always earned his bread by the sweat of his brow, aud for industry, honesty and integrity his superior cannot be found. Ho was a soldier in the late war, aud sustained u wound from which he suffers to this day, and which has caused tho partial disability of oue kg. He is a man who never meddled with other people's business, and al ways attended strictly to hi own. We are sorry to learn that some of his enemies have started a most malicious falsehood against hi in ; viz: that he was couniving with Kepler, aud that he (Kepler) was going to support him. Mr. Foreman givc9 the lip to tho orig inators of this falsehood fn such terms as will satisfy his supporters and con vince thetu that it was originated to injure hi9 prospects. No one who knows Smith Foreman will doubt his word one ioftant, and will placo no reliance on' any stories gotten tip on the eve of election to injure him. Mr. Foreman, we couscientiously believe, will receive every true Republican vote iu tho county, and be elected by a good majority, and what is more will mako one of the very best Treas urers we ever had, which every one of his acquaintances knows. Vote for N. S. Foreman. Mr. F. F. Wuittkkin, enndidate for County Surveyor, wo have spoken of in previous issues, and can only reiterate what wo have said. He has the ability to perform the du ties of office, and will do so acceptably to the people. He carries with him recommendations from the best sources of the State, and being a young, ener getic man will take a lively interest in the performance of bis duties. We ask the support of all Republians and friends for Mr. Whittekin. tC. II. Church, Esq., of Hickory, candidate for Coroner, is one of our old and tried citizens, and we think will receive the support of all his old acquaintenances, irrespective of party. He has received sufficient training in the office of Justice of the Peace to enable him to fill the place acceptably. The office of Coroner may be considered a comparatively unim portant one, but it should by no means be overlooked. Our ticket as a whole is an honor to the party, to the county, to the State and to the Nation. Let no Republi can be tempted to vote any but the straight ticket, and we can confidently rely upon a glorious victory on the 2d day of November. Remember that no party ever bad better or purer men. up for State officers ; that no butter set of men were ever nominated on any ticket in Forest County; that when you vote the Republican ticket straight, you are doing the very best thing for the county, thb State and the Nation. Let no Republican scratch his ticket. CARPETS. Oil City, Pa Oct. 19, 1880. . G. W.
