A. Lemon ; Judiciary for Supreme

kin, for Coroner, C. H. Church. A
splendid ticket and will be elected.
The following are the official figures
of the total vote for Governor at the
October electiou in Indiana ; Porter,
Republican, 230,201 ; Landers, Dem
ocrat, 222,740 ; Gregg, National, 14,
S63; plurality for Poter, 7,551. The
official returns of the Ohio elections
are as follows: Judge of Supreme

044; Follett,,. Democrat, 341,000;
Loudon, Greenbacker, 6,578; Mcll
taina'a plurality 23,041.
A large and enthusiastic Demo
cratic meeting was hld at Kellers,
burg on Saturday afternoon last. Also
one at Red Bank in the erening.
Both meetings were addresssd bv Dr.
Thomas St. Clair, of Indiana, James
Mosgrove and others. New Bethlehem
Vindicator.
And thus it is, we see Jimmy tick
ling up the Bourbons one erening,
and the Greenbackers the next. And
yet Jimmy says, "I give my sacred
word and honor that I will do all I
can to insure the success of the State
and Presidential Greenback candidates
in 1880." Speaking at "enthusiastic
Democratic meetings" is a mighty
good way to insure such success, we
must confess.
The President Judgeship.
Hon. Wm. D. Brown, the Reptbli
can candidate for President Judge is
fifty-seven years of age. Judge Rass
elas Brown, the Democratic candidate
is in his sixty-ninth year. No one ac
quainted with these gentlemen will
question the assertion that in legal ac
quirements and general qualifications
for the place William D. Brown is at
least the equal of bis competitor. In
view of these facts we ask all intelli
gent and thoughtful voters to ponder
the question. Is it wise to put upon
the bench for ten years one who has
already almost reached the threescore
years and tea usually regarded as the
limit of human life f This is a question
ofgreat importance to the tax-payer,
J. K. WKNK.
to the buisness max and to all inter
ested in the business of our county.
We esteem it the interest of Democrats
&D4 Greenbackers alike with Republi
cam that the Judge should be one in
the prime of life, and that, therefore,
all having the best interests of thedis
trict at heart, should sink rll differ
noes on political questions and cast
their votes for Hon. William D. Brown.
To the Voters.
If you want the reins of Govern
ment in safe and loyal hands for the
next four years vote for
Garfield and Arthur.
If you want a statesman, an honest
upright gentleman to handle the
affairs of the Auditor General's office
vote for
John A. Lemov.
If you want a fair aad impartial
man to sit on the Supreme bench of
our State vote for
Henrt Green.
If you want a brilliant intellect,
gentleman whose record is without a
spot or blemish, and one who is just
in the prime of life to grace the Judic
ial ermine of our county courts, vote
for
William D. Browk.
If you want to honor an eld citizen
of your county, a man who has always
borne the high esteem of all his neigh
bers, by electiug him Associate Judge,
vote for
Amza Purdy.
If you want a Congressman who
has the ability aud backbone to rep
resent you and take care of your
interests io the 25th District, and who
will not vot or work with the Rebel
Brigadiers, vote for
Harry White.
If you want a man who will honestly
and intelligently take care ef your
home interests in the Legislature of the
State; one whose demeanor all through
the canvass has been such as to
command the very highest respect from
his most bitter opponents, vote for
E. L. Davis.
If you want a man who can take
care of the county funds, account for
every penny, and administer the affairs
of the County Treasurer's office with
airness and impartiality, vole for
N. S. Foremak.
Ifyouwantan energetic, persever
ing and experienced young man for
County Surveyor, vote for
F. F. Whittekin.
If you want to elect an old and tried
citizen of sound judgement and legal
experience for Coroner, vote for
C. H. Church.
A Democratic Victory.
Just as we siiDD03ed. the De moornt.
io papers of this district have been
tailing up Mosgrove strong, and say
ing very little about the Dolitical
tion involved in the case, being satis
fied to let that rest until on the eve of
election. This, of course was done to
keep the Greenback voters In trnnA
humor. In order to awaken the Dem
ocratic side of the fusion, they are now
coming out and tellin? the vnr tn
stick to Mosgrove because it will be a
-4 .. . . '
democratic victory. Here ara a couple
of extracts from the Brookvill 7)n.
ocrat, of Jefferson county, where the
Greenback vote is very small, and
can't affect the result much ona way or
another ;
"Vote for Ja
he is the regular nominaa fifth
O w . w a u V JLS G 1 f I
ocracy in the district."
"Vote for James Mosgrove, and bis
election will be a Democratic victory."
That's the way the case ia .Awr1
over there. James Mosgrove's election
II 1 v
wm oe a JLfemocraiie victory, according
to the best authority we can get. If
James Mosgrove is sent to Congress
the ring leaders of the Democratic
party will handle him. and are H.
pending on his vote, voice and sympa
thy in all their measures.
The Warren Hail has the following
article regarding Hon. Wm. D. Brown,
for the truth of which every one of his
acquaintances ill readily vouch :
For President Judge we have Hon.
Win. D. Brown, of Warren. He was
raised among us. He is known favor
ably by all our people, as a man of
high character and great ability. For
thirty years he has been a leading law
yer at our bar noted far and wide for
its ability and strength. He repre
sented us three years at Harrisburg
with much credit and success. Aside
from that he has nejver sought or held
office. He is thoroughly and naturally
a lawyer, and just the kind of a man
to go on the bench. So eminently fit
ted it he for the place that all the
counties in this judicial district in-
structed for him without opposition
Our people should remember that this
judicial district is not surely a Repub
lican district. Elk Co. is largely
JLieraocratic. forest county will not
give much majority either way. It
devolves on Warren county to elect
the bedt man we have for Judge. In
the strife for President let not this
office be overlooked. With a candi
date whose legal and personal qualifi
cations are unexceptionable, there
ought to be no question about his tri
umphant election. The judgship is
not strictly a party question, ami we
hear of very many Democrats and
Greenbackers who propose to vote fr
u: i i ' .. i.
mm uvea u io oi nis pre-eminent n id ess
for the place. Iney will not regret it.
We can add to the above that Mr.
Brown is a kind, courteous and agree
able gentleman.
Slight Unpleasantness.
Our erting cotemporaries, with their
usual reliability (?) fer truth, show
their venom and malice toward Gen.
White by the way they report the re
cent altercation between him and
James Mosgrove. If Gen. White was
runk, Mosgrove must have been
runker, as be is a much larger man
and should have been able to have
taken care of himself had hebeendulv
Bober. The following account of the
affair we clip from the Pittsburgh
Com-Gazette, from which it will be
seen that General White was perfectly
justifiable in resenting the insult :
Edenburq. Pa.. Oct. 20. A littU
episode occurred in our nolitio Kr
to-day. A crowd got aboard the up
train on the Allegheny Valley Kail-
roaa at ranters tor the convention
ere. A monsr the doodU was General
Harry White. When they reached
Foxburz the delegation cot out. Oen.
White hanneneri ia rrr nui . -
door with James Mosgrove, who. with
ur. ot. iiair, was coming to this point
and Clarion. The General sainted
Mr. Mosgrove politely, shaking bands
witnnim, ana remarking pleasantly,
"Come up to our meeting along."
Some foul words were then uttered as
both parties were going out of the door
together, when Gen. White said : "I
thought we were to have a courteous
campaieu. Mr. Mosgrove. I invited
you to travel with me, but I see you
are now takiug Doctor St. Clair up
here to abuse my dear old father and
myself." To which Mr. M. replied :
"You have hired that man Ramser to
abuse me." General W. reclied : "I
beg your pardon ; I have not done so.
I hire no raau to abuse my neighbor."
"Yes vcu have," said Mr. M. "No,"
said the General. "I honed mnlil
avoid scandal and abase in the cam
paign." Mr. M. reiterated that White
1 1 t W-k
naa nirea liamsey to abuse biro, and
the General agaia said, "No, I have
Dot." To this Mr. M. orilr rani i Art
"You lie," whereupon General White
drew- back and struck Mr. M. id the
face, savine "I will allow do man to
insult me that way." Mr. M. stagger
ed a little against the side of the car,
when some parties interfered and the
participants separated. Gen. White
was then surrounded by his friends
from Parker. He said ha recrettAd
the occurrence, but, office or no office,
he would allow no man, if he was larg
er than himself, to insult bim in that
way. The General's friends who saw
it said he did perfectly rierht to resent
such an insult. The General is at
tending the Republican Convention as
u notning pad happened.
Apropos of the above, we remember
a story, that we may be pardoned for
telling, about General White's father:
One time when Judge White was on
his circuit, he stopped at an hotel at
Middleton for dinner. . There a Mr.
Coulter and Judge White got into some
discussion, and before it ended Mr.
Coulter fell himself very much ag
grieved by an answer the Judge had
given him. He did not, however, get
real mad until the Judge had eone.
when becoming thoroughly aroused at
what had been said, bo took a butcher
knife and followed in hot haste. Over
taking the Judge watering his horse at
Crooked creek, he took out his huth.
er knife and told the Judge he had
come to kill him ; he was bound to
kill him ; he had been insulted aud
should be revenged. The Judge qui-
euy produced a pocket pistol and
pointing it toward his assailant, said :
"Now, Coulter, vour choice : Heaven.
!! tr i ii . ......... .
neu, or fliiaaieton." "Well, Judge,
if that is vonr decision T imoaa T will
go back to Middleton."

A Falsehood Nailed.
To the Votcrt of Forest County :
I find that in many places through
out the county the story 1ms been cir
culated, and I am surprised to think
has gained some credence, that J. M.
Kepler is working iu my interest, and
that the fact is understood by me. I
wish hereby to brand such statement
as a most malicious and unwarranted
falsehood. I have never had any con
versation with Mr. Kepler in anyway,
shape or manner regarding the office
of County Treasurer, nor has he ever
intimated to me any intentien 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, aad I hope my friends will
believe me when I say that the report
Irorn 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. I will further state that
if elected to the office of Treasurer I
will give it my personal attention, and
be run by no man.
