This is believed to be the largest
court held in forest county lor sev
eral years. The hotels are crowded to
their utmost capacitY. The witnesses
and others interested in the B. P. &
W. R. R. suits were compelled to go to
Oil City for accommodation on Mon
day and Tuesday evenings. There is
an unusual number of jurors in at

It is whispered about that a
bridge is soon to be built over the
river at Hickory, tbe principle stocfi;
to be taken by Tionesta parties. From
what we can learn nsarly enough has
been subscribed to insure its erection.
This will be a big plumb for that rap

Mr. C. F. Gillespie will commence
tbe erection of a commodious and sub
stantial dwelling house on bis Vino
St., lot as soon as the weather becomes i
stttled. Mr. G. has paid taxes on
ot for several years and received
little or no benefit therefrom: he
therefore proposes to put it in shape
so it will bring him in something, and
at the same time be a benefit to the
town. Th 8 house will be for rent, and
will be arranged with a view to tbis
end. We consider this the right kind
of public spirif and only wish more
ofTionesta's property owners, who are
abundantly able, would follow the
good example.

The friends of Miss Minnie Riker,
will be pained to learn of her unex
pected death which occurred at Wis-
tier, Tuscola Co., Michigan, ou tbe
15tb of February. She was the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. N. Riker,
who moved from Tionesta to the above
named place in December last, tbe
young lady having gone there some
months previous and iad been liviug
with a Bister. Mis3 Minnie was aged 18
years, and while here seemed to be iu
excellent health. She air a perfect
lady in all respects, ber modest and
simple lady-like manners bavrag won
for her the esteem aod respect of all
her acquaintances here. Her aged
parents and other relatives have the
sympathy of our people in their sad
affliction.
It is with sincere regret that we
are called upon to chronicle the 8'jd"
den death of Mr. Charles D. Mabie
which took place at Kinzua, Warren
county, Pa., ou Thursday, Feb. 23,
1882. His complaint was pneumonia
and he lived but a few days after be
was attacked. He had written to his
familv but a few days previous, eta
ting that his health was good, and
that be was succeeding nicely. His
two sons, Frank and Harry arrived
shortly after bis death, and conveyed
his remains to Fairview, Erie cojQty,
where the funeral took place, and he
was laid to rest in the cemetery beside
other relatives, gone before. Mr. Mabie
was well knowD throughout this sec
tion ot country, and at oue time was
one of the most successful business
men in Crawford county, where he
speot the greater portion of hi life,
principally In tbe hotel business, in
which be bad few equals. He was
always courteous and kind, and made
his guests feel at home while partak
ing of his hospitalities. lie bad his
ups aud downs iu tbis world, and he
always bore tbetn bravely ; he was
never kDowu to lay don under a
misfortune. Although 58 years of age
when he died he worked hard up to
the day he was taken sick. "Pnacebe

Editor Retv bucas : .
. As it is now near
the timo when township accounts most be
settled, arid when statements uhoiibl be
published, I feel like nskinjr why' it is
that, except inj? a very few csihm, the finan
cial statement? .'of tho several townships
and school districts in Forest Co., are
never allowed to appear in print in our
county papers? It may bo given mo in
answor that it costs a grod deal to publish
In tho papers, and that hetico It ii to thd
interest of taxpayers to post up hand-bills
instead. Although I have no certain in
formation on this point, I still doubt if
this be always the reai reason, for I ven
ture to think that very generally where
no publication is made in tho papers no
band-bills arc; put up cither. And again i
thiS , l (kn ncn nf rtOWtiolct wlirw rklll.Tiwl. ti nt.
because thej' liko to, but because they feel
they must, is it ressonable to think they
will bo likoly to take on themselves un
necessary work ? Will they bo likely to
take it on themselves to write out ten or
more statements and travel over the town-
whip a:id put them up, when but one, end
a postage stamp to carry it, is all that is
required? (Unless, indeed, they mean to
pay themselves for this! In such caso
where will be tho saving.) And on the
other hand, if our officials really want tho
taxpayers to see tho statement, Burely
they will put it where we can best weo it.
A liand-bill, put up to-day, may bo torn
down by some vand d or tho elements to
morrow. The taxpayer may riot have
time to leave his work and run over the
township reeking for hand-bills. Our
home paper can, and certainly will carry
the statement to tho home of all who may
wish it.
I think it clear then, that this is not the
real reason. There remain, then, but three
other reasons, either of which means a
dangerous Btate of affairs. The three rea
sons may be that our officials are cither
incompetent, or careless, or crooked. As
to being incompetent to get up asta emcnt
in gooi shape, thoro are but few, if any,
who may not acquire ability enough for
their duties, if they only will ; the trouble
lies in tho fact, that as human nature yoes
there is not enough of painstaking in
either the learning or tho doing, A great
deal depends on the clerks and secretaries
of the several boards of road commission
ers and school directors. How many of
these take psins to learn aud practice a
commendable system of book-keeping. I
opine the township books generally are
apt to be inaccurate, by reason of tho slip
shod way in which they are kept. Not
enough work exact full is dono on
them. Who that has ever had occasion to
take a set of township books and trace
back tho oj erations of past years, but that
has taken on himself a plerplexing task?
Yes, there is doubtless a great deal of
imperfect work done, but it is mostly the
work of carelessness rather than of inabil
ity. The most of us have more oi the ele
ment of carelessness in onr nature than is
good for us, but pecuniai y self interests
spurs us on to take somo care of tho things
of our own. The township official does
not have this spur to duty, and maj', if he
follow his natural bent, take tilings easy,
tho painstaking will bring him no gain,
his carelessness no loss. If our officials
are careless in the matter of publishing
the financial statements, what guarantee
have we that they are not careless in all
else? A lack of painstaking is certain to
result in loss ; and I can see that it is a
very easy matter for losses to occur, and
even the officials themselves not know it
It must not be believed that our officials
are dishonest. I, for one, don't believe it.
And yet, is it not clear that if the state
ments are not published as the law de
mands there must certainly be something
wrong? The law requiring publication is
a crood one. and should be obeyed. The
taxpayer has a right to know whether tho
hard earned money ho pays iu taxes isju
diciouslv exnonded. He wants to feel
sure that it is not lost, strayed or Btolen
And beyond this, the law ia founded on a
knoweldgo of human nature : It was
doubtless contemplated that the effect of
its operation on the officials themselves
will be to secure from them better service.
I hardly think, on the whole, that I need
apologize for this letter ; and yet I almost
feel like throwing it in the fire, because
some may think it a spiteful lliug at some
body. It is notning of tho kind truly.
am only agitating for reform, and cannot
wrong any one. Agitation as to his duties
will only make the litness of the capable.
careful official more apparent ; and if, on
the other hand, my bow drawn at a ven
ture hits tho mark, I am doing good ser
