The Republican Conference having ad journed sine die, without making a nomi nation for the oftleo of President Judge of the 37th Judicial District, and having re ceived the nomination of the Repulilieaii party at the primary election in thia Coun ty, and believing that Forest County is entitled to that ollice as of right, I will re main in the Held as a candidate, and hope to receive the hearty support of the Re publicans of Forest County. Samuel D. Iuwin. To the Voters of the 37th Judicial District : Having received a largo majority of the votes cast tor President Judge at the Re publican Primaries held May 10th, 1S!H, I wish to say to the voters of this Judicial District that I am a candidate for the election, and desire your hearty co-operation in the Fall campaign. I shall use every honorable means to aid and serve you, and feel confident that we will achieve success. I aui, Yours very truly, Geo. 11. Hiuqins. County Committee Meeting. The members of the Republican County Committee of Forest county are hereby notified tbat a meeting of faid committeo will bo held at the office of Sheriff Sawyer, on Tuesday c.i ie . i. fr.on at which all are requested to be present, as matters of importance bearing on the pending campaign will bo attend ed to. J. C. Scowden, Chairman. Tioneeta, Sept. 1, 1890. Pay Your Taxes. The time for legal registration having passed, the most important thing now to do in order to insure your vote this fall, is the payment of your State or County tax. If you neglect this vital duty you lose your vote. Republican Committeemen are particularly nrged to see tbat each friend of the parly in their respective districts have paid their taxes. Octo ber 4th is the last day. But don't put it off till the last day. Have you heard the news from Maine? The State election touk place there on Monday and resulted in the largest majority in an off year for tbe Republicans that has been given tor many years. Speaker Tom. Reed is re-elected by more than double bii former large majority, and all the Re publican Congressmen are re-elected. Gov. Burleigh is re elected by nearly 20,000 majority. The State Senate is all Republican, and the House will stand 125 Republicans to 26 Demo crats. Good for Maine ! John L. Butler, of Harrisburg, Domocratio orator and journalist, is out in an interview denouncing Robert E. Pattison in unmeasured terms fur bis coldness and duplicity in dealing with the Democracy of Pennsylvania. Tbe statement of Mr. Butler is a fair index of the disaffection in Democrat ic ranks disaffection of the genuiue variety warranted not to fade or grow rusty until Mr. Pattison is permanent ly shelved iu the political receiving vault prepared for those politicians who pretend ooe thing while actively engaged in perfurmiog quite the con trary behind the closet door. Mr. Butler's defectioo means much for he is a man of commanding influence as will be fully proven when the votes are counted in Dauphin and surround ing counties next November. iuGiew lorn umpitte thus sues up tbe smart Aleck of the Times "The esteemed Col. McClure of the Philadelphia Times, Las opened the campaign in Pennsylvania with his usual assurance of Republican disas ter unless something hunpetts. Col. McClure predicts that to-day Senator Delamater is defeated, which is very cautious in uoi. aicuiure, because no election is to be held to day and he is not subject to immediate exposure. If the election were to day we Bhould bave no such prediction from this ex travagant political prophet. Senator Delamater will be elected iu Novem ber, when the votiug takes placn, just as be would be elected to-day if this were election time. As the mellow autumn days chase each other down the slopes of time Col. McClure will find convenient opportunities to do bis customary bedgiog." SAMUEL D. IRWIN'S LETTER Setting Forth his Claim to the Ju dicial Nomination. Followiog is Mr. Irwin's letter, ns published in the Warren Mirror of Sept. 4, 1M)0, setting forth his claim to the Judicial nomination in this district : 7b the people of the 27n'rf,i-.civti(i Judicial Jhfitriet : The Judicial Conference of (his district, after numerous sessions and about l'Jl'O ballots, has adjourned without being able to make a nomination. This unfortunate result makes it proper to explain to the peoplo of the district the part taken by tho Forest county represen tatives in the conference, whoso results have leen so futile, and to submit to Jthcir candid consideration and disinterested judgment, sonio of tho reasons Unit linvo determined our cause. I was presented by tlio vote of Forest county, unanimously expressed nt her republican primaries, as her candidate for president judge of this judicial dishlet. As the senior lawyer of the two candidates, as tho senior member of tho bat of Forest county, as twice her district attorney, and as a veteran of the war of tho rebellion, I had at least some, personal claims to a fair consideration of any candidacy before the district conference. Our eonferoos xvero over disposed to fairly consider the Just claims of tho Warren candidate. On the other hand, tho position assumed by the Warren candidate from the start was that his nomination alone was the necessary outcome of the conference. It was given out to tho public that, whether nominated or not, ho would alter a few ballots be a candidate before the people for the olection, and at a later stago in the ses sions of tbo conference ono of his conferees in debate said In his presence without re buke or disclaimer, that they did not care what the conference might do, whether nominated or not, he would be a candi date. Early in tho campaign his friends sought to deprive me of my right to ap point niy conferees; and to appoint con ferees in his favor. After assuming this altitude towards us, that made it diflicult if not impossible for us to nominate him with any degroe of soil' respect, we might be justified in re fusing ms nomination. tint we choose to place our action above personal consider ations. We have put our claim for tho nomination upon tho broad ground that rorest county is entitled to it. iter voters havo been so steadfast in their allegianco to the party that twice has she been rec ognized as the banner county of the state. warren county has been favored with a iiresiuent juogc lor the past thirty years, 'orcst has never had the otllce. While Forest is the smaller county, that Is not a valid reason why she should nut be allow ed tho nomination. Warren has establish ed the right of smaller counties to equal claims for recognition by precedents too many to be disregarded by her. Sho en forced the claim of the smaller county against Erie for twenty years for the otllce of president judge in the persons of Judges Johnson and Wetmore. and in tbe congress for many terms In the persons of Judge actionem ana uoi. xv atson. she is now assuming the samo claim against Venango county in asking the re-nomination of Senator Allen, and against the larger counties of Venango and MvKeau in tho candidacy of secretary Stone for nomina tion to congress. After all these examples it is with another poor grace that the claim ot Forest county should be ignored on the ground of her being a smaller county. Yet this is the ouly substantial reason for refusing tne nomination oi nor canuuiate. If other reasons were needed to justify our position they might be found in tho general opposition to the nomination of the Warren candidate which oiirconlerees observed among republicans of all classes, in vt arren county, whose leaity was be vend question, and whoso character enti tled them to our confidence and esteem When it bocamo apparent that thu War ron conferees would not nominate mo, and mat wo couiu not nom-mato tneir candi date, our conferees mado every reasonable j effort to break tho deadlock, they offered I to submit tho determination of which of us should be nominated to the republican members of tho bar of the two counties of the district. Tho force of this oiler will be apparent when it is considered that tho 1-orest bar is oomposod of live republicans, and the Warreu bar of twenty-seven re publicans. Yet this fair offer was rejected. Our conferees also submitted a plan for breaking the deadlock bv tho nomination of some candidate outside of the two be toro the convention, who would bo mut ually satisfactory to both counties, and by his character a nil standi ng would com inand the respect and support of all republicans. This plan was also refused without any proposition from the other side. Our peo plo were led to make this lattor proposi tion by the cousiueration of tho high and sacred character of the otllce they were seeking to fill, and tho further consldoia tion that no man should have a mortgage upon the judgeship. If this plan had re sulted in the nomination of Secretary C. W. Stouo, Judge Win. U. Krown, Hon. E. L. Davis, or any well qualified person upon whom all could unite, I should have bowed to the result and yielded my claims with entire satisfaction. While doing everything we honorably could to secure the nomination for our eouuty, we wero willing for the sake of tno punnc good and the good ot the party to yield our claims in favor of a man whose character, learning and fitness would adoru the bench ; wo would not sacrifice her claims for any other. Wo thought and still think, that a nomination should have been made by the conference lor tno goou oi tno party ami the credit ol tho district. While so thinking, wo sub mit to every candid voter of the district, ii either county, that we could not have, done more to bring about this happy re sult than wo have done, without an abso lute surrender on our part, against our best judgment and a proper respect for thu rigms ot our county, tier candidates and con ferees. Although tho conference has adiourned. our conferees are still the representatives of Forest county to secure a judicial nom ination. As such representatives they are willing to recouveno the judicial confer ence and make such a nomination as pub lic seimmeni may determine will receive unanimous support. Tho time has come when personal ambition and selfishness should be sunk for the good of the district and the party, and with a decent regard for the propriety of the judicial otllce. If aroused publiu opinion will make itself heard I shall bo most happy to do what I can to lift the candidacy of the judgeship above the plane where it now is. for I claim no indefeasible lien upon tho judic ial office. No ono can ask ine to do more. Until such a result is reached, the adjourn ment ot the conference without making a nomination leaves mo with tho endorse ment of my county, anil leaves the War ren candidate without any legitimate claim upon anv republican voter of Forest county, ana without any claim upon any one as a camnuaio oi ine di-.li let. x ltli tins statement ot some ot the rea sons that have actuated us I coniideiitl v submit our eouiso to the deliberate and impartial Judgment of tho people of this district.
