-The Commissioners of Erie and
Warren counties have addressed the
following invitation to the County
Commissioners throughout the State:
"Believing that a convention of all
the County Commissioners of the
Stae would result in great improve
ment of the manner of transacting the
business of our respective offices, we
suggest that such a convention be
held at Harriaburg, on Wednesday,
October 6th, for the purpose of form
ing a revised tax law, or fixing npon a
uniform practice under existing laws
with power to transact any buuaeei
relating to the business or duties of
County Commissioners." This sort of
a convention has been in contempla
tion by the Commissioners of Dauphin
county and they cheerfully accept the
iuvitation. All clerks to commission
ers are included in the call. Harris

sion Agent S. B. Newton, which is a
guarantee that everybody will be cour
teously treated and have an excellent

OUR NEXT CONGRESSMAN.
James T. Mafiett the Man.
The Conferees of this, 25th, Con
gressional District had a long siege of
it at Foxburg last week, and not until
late Thursday evening, and after 143
ballots were had, did they succeed in
making a nomination. Notwith
standing this long struggle entire har
mony prevailed throughout the delib
erations of the convention. Compli
mentary ballots were freely given,
aud at one time or another each can
didate in the field received seven votes,
or within one of sufficient to nominate.
The conferees of the different coun
ties were as follows :
Armstrong M. F. Lesson, James
II. Chambers, Kiltauning; F. Oiling
er, Parker City.
Indiana Hugh M. Bell, ludiana;
M. M. Wilson, Blairsville; Horace J.
Thompson, Decker's Point.
Jefferson D. E. Breneman, James
E. Long, Brookville; II. C. Camp
bell, Punxsutawii6y.
Clarion John B. Patrick, Clarion ;
D. W. Goheen, Briukerton; II. L.
Young, Strattanville.
Forest S. Calvin, Cooksburg; C.
M. Sbawkey, Wm. Smearbaugh, Tio-
neU.
The Domination of Mr. Mafiett was
finally made on the 143d ballot by
Jefferson leading off with one vote for
him, followed by one from Indiana,
Clarion three and Armstrong three,
making eight in all, which were suffi
cient to nominate. The nomination
when all of the candidates were id vit
ed in and made speeches cheerfully
acquiescing in the convention's choice.
The Convention then adjourned amid
the best of feeling.
Hon. James T. Maffett.
In 1803 the Maffett family, who are
of Scotch-Irish descent, settled in what
is now Clarion county then Arm
strong and were among the first set
tiers in the county. John Maffett,
father of Ja mes T. Maffett, was born
and raised in Clarion county, and
James T. Maffett, our candidate for
Congress, was born on bis father's farm
near Straltooville, in 1837. He re
ceived a college education being a
school mate of Hon. James A. Beaver
and Hon. George A. Jenks, at Jefler
son College, Pa.
After leaving college in 1859, be
went to California, where he married
and settled ; there he began the study
of law. His only brother having
been killed in the waroftbo rebellion,
he returned to Pennsylvania in 1870
to take care of his aged pareuts. In
1871-2 he completed his law studies
under W. P. & G. A. Jenks, in
Brookville, Pa., and was there admit
ted to the bar.
, Io the faJJ of 1872 ha formed a law
partnership with the late Judga Knox
of Clarion. This continued until 1881,
when Knox was elected President
Judge of the 18th Judicial District,
since that time Mr. Maffett has con
tinued the practice of law at Clarion
with W. II. Ross, as Maffett fc Ross.
In 1880, he was the Republican
Presidential elector from this Con.
gressional district. In 1884 ho bad
the instructions of Clarion county for
Congress, receiving a very large ma
jority therefor, against a formidable
opponent at the primary election. At
the Republican Congressional Confer
ence, held at Brookville in July of
that year, he was a strong candidate,
but was unable to be present in per
son to counsel with his conferees, on
account of the serious illtiess of his
mother. He failed to receive the
nomination at that time, not from any
cause of his own, but owing to combi
nations which his friends were not
able to overcome.
He i? a member of the Presbyterian
Chursb, and is a clean banded man in
every respect. He is popular at home,
and no man in the district could be
named for this position who would be
stronger with the people, and we pre
dict for him an old time Republican
majority in the district.
Saturday's Match Hunt.
The match bunt among our tports
came off last Saturday according to
arrraugements and proved a decided
success in all respects. The scores on
each side averged considerably over
100, which is rather better than has
heretofore been accomplished, while
some of the individual scores were re
markably large. The turnout of
hunters was very good and the con
test quite spirited. Supper served at
the Lawrence House was a first-class
article, and seemed to strike the right
spot judging from the rapidity with
which it disappeared before the angry
onslaught of the Nimrodian disciples.
The boys want to repeat the hunt after
the first of October.
