TO THE REPUBLICANS OK FOR
EST COUNTY.
Oo next Tuesday our citizens will
.decide by ballot who shall be Govern
or; who shall be State officers of a
great Commonwealth. They will then
decide whether our state government
is to be administered in accordance
with what we know to be the true pol
icy, or shall continue to be adminis
tered by a political party which has
ehown itself wholly incompetent to ad
minister the affairs of this state to the
interest and welfare of her people.
Shall we vindicate the wrong done
four years ago, and place our standard
bearer, the veteran General James A.
Beaver, at the helm? Answer this
question by such a majority in Forest
County fur the man with the crutch as
will rattle the "dry" bones of even
Chas. S. Wolfe. Answer it by show
ing that, although we are a small
.county, we still have a large majority
in favor of honest government, pro
tection to the laboring classes, and re
buke to the party that would disgrace
our institutions by Free Trade, bogus
reform, and pure, unadulterated bour
bon deception.
For Congress we have James T.
Maffett Esq., of Clarion; a man of
intelligence, an eminent lawyer, a man
whose personal character cannot be
impeached, a siau whose political reo
ord is clean. Our candidate for Con
gress is a square shouldered, manly
man; his shoulders have never been
rounded by carrying water on both.
Vote for MatTett ; bend your energies
on election day for the man who will
faithfully guard our interests In the
Legislative Halls of the Nation.
Work for a man who is all a Con
gressman should be; against the Dr.-what-is-it,
whom even the democratic
delegates from his own county refused
to recognize in convention, and from
whom the democratic delegates of
Forest County withdrew in contempt
Work to the end that when the eve
ning of Nov. 2d shall come the office
hunter, the great wbat-is-it, who was
nominated by three counties and dis
dained by his own and Forest County,
will be snowed under a majority that
his political standing so well deserves.
For Seuator vote for II. L. Young,
a man whom we can trust, an honora
ble man, a man whose nomination was
not secured by solid cash.
We present for the consideration of
the voters of Forest County a ticket
to which we as Republicans can point
with pride. We present to them men
who will fill the offices they seek with
honor to themselves and credit to our
couuty.
Vote for Charles A. Randall, a man
in whom you all have greatest confi
dence, a man who has beeu prominent
in our County, a man of sound sense,
of ability, a man who will in his offi
cial duties have the interest of our
citizens at heart. Vote for Raudall,
work for him at the polls. Remember,
we dont want a Free Trade, dyed iu-tbe-wool,
horizontal tariff reduction
U. 6. Senator sent from Pennsylvania
next winter, to help the Johnny Bull
J. E. WENK,
schemes through our Halls of Con
gress. Solomon Fitzgerald, a veteran, who
carries remembrances of his devotion
to his country in her day of peril, is
the man for County Treasurer. He
will perform the duties of the office in
a manner that will make us feel proud
that we elected him. He is a gentle
man, obliging, worthy, and he must be
elected.
Vote for Whittekin. He is true
blue, can ruu a line with any roan in
the States, and will fill the office of
County Surveyor with dignity, cheer
fulness, and business skill combined
on the most approved methods.
For Corouer, Dr. Morrow. Don't
forget the Doctor; though last on the
ticket be is not least. Work for him ;
see that he gets a large majority. Put
him in the chair with such force of
numbers that young Doc. Siggios will
be shaken clear off the platform.
The best our opponents have ou
band will be urged against us until
the polls close next Tuesday evening.
Their oiliest talkers, closest traders,
and best manipulators will be on hand
with their finest stock of wares. Keep
your eye on the chap who .has a
"trade" to offer. Don't let the rooster
who has a "confidential" to show you
conceroing any of our candidates get
away till you bare nailed his scheme.
Do your whole duty as citizens; do
your duty as Republicans, and Forest
County will have a good round ma
jority to her credit, and our ticket will
be elected without the loss of a man.
Curtis M. Shawxey,
Chairman.
Vote for General Beaver, the gal
lant one-legged soldier, the brilliant
orator and statesman, the true Chris
tian gentleman. His companions on
the State ticket are made of the same
metal. Vote it straight.
Republicans let nothing keep you
from the polls next Tuesday. Get
there early and put in some'good solid
work, for the whole ticket. All over
the Stater he Republicans are worked
up to a fever heat and our county roust
show np with any of them. Bend
every energy toward getting out every
vote. There never was a ticket placed
befo re you that was more deserving of
your heartiest support, from the gal
lant Beaver down. James G. Blaine,
the great favorite of Pennsylvania
Republicans, has been in the State
and Etirred it up from center to cir
cumference. He says the ticket ought
to be elected by an overwhelming ma
jority that it cannot be too large.
Again we earnestly admonish you to
be on hand early and work hard.
Vote for Charles A. Randall for
Assembly, the careful guardian of the
interests of bis constituents. A ready
debater, sound reasoner, faithful to
every interest of the county, he will
make a champion in the Halls of our
State Legislature, of whom we will all
be proud. He is pre-eminently the
man for the place, aud the people will
make no mistake in electing him.
Was Dr. St. Clair n rib inn ao an
"Anti-mopolis?" and the "Friend of
T I L L .
j-iuut wueu no voiea against the
Free Pipe Line bill in the State Sen
ate, the passage of which measure then
would doubtless have saved Pennsyl
vania aud the nation from the im
measurable disgrace of the Standard
Oil Company T The Standard was
then in the lobby of the Senate at
Harrisburg, (as it has been since,
when its interests were threat
ened.) The newspaper organs
which are heralding hiai as the
special champion of labor and anti
monopoly cannot deny these facts.
The Kittanniog Globe should give the
fact special consideration, since the
defeat of the measure was one of very
grave importance to the laborers and
producers of Armstrong as well as to
Clarion and the other counties of the
District where Dr. Rt. Clair is hunting
votes. Clarion Hep.-Gazette.
Vote for Solomon Fitzgerald for
County Treasurer, the crippled and
maimed aoldier, who gave the best
days of his life to the cause of his
country. He deserves the support of
every man who believes in giving a
helping hand to an industrious, honest,
capable man, who, through his disa
bilities, has up-hill work in making a
living.
Vote for James T. Maffett for Con
gress, the clean handed, upright man
fioia Clarion. A man who has never
been mixed up in the least in any po
litical or other trickery; a man who
is loved and most highly respected by
all his neighbors, irrespective of politics.
Vote for IE. L. Young of Straltan
ville, Clarion county, for State Sena
tor, a roan of honor and ability, in
whom the people of his neighborhood
have the utmost confidence.
Give General Beaver the same
hearty support in peace that he gave
you in war.
Vote for II. 0. Whittekin for
County Surveyor. He has filled the
office one term with satisfaction and
will do so again, being very attentive
to business.
Let us see that every Republican
vote in the connty is polled next
Tuesday. All help get out the vote.
Vote for Dr. Morrow for Coroner,
a skillful physician and upright gen
tleman, aod possesses the requisite le
gal knowledge to administer the office
correctlv.
