Craig was born in a log cabin near tbe villiage of Bligo, Clarion count;, Pa., May 8, 1832, and is a brother of tbe late lamented Col. C. A. Craig, of the 105th Regi ment Pennsylvania Volunteers, who died on the field of battle near the close -of the war a noble soldier and f regiment, recruited in the several counties of this section and of which the Potomac army was proud. Mr. Craig spent his early life driv iog team, working in his father's mill and attending a small country store. After receiving a common school ed ucation he entered Elder's Ridge Academy, uuder the instruction tbe venerable Dr. Donaldson, and by teaching school in winter, at $16 per month, prepared himself to enter the Junior Class at Jefferson College 1854 and graduated from that insti tution with Gen. James A. Beaver and others in the class of 1856. He then became principal of an Academy in his own county and af terwards in Missouri, and began th study of law, and, entering tbe law office of tbe Hon. James Campbell was admitted to tbe bar in 1858. He went south and engaged in tbe prac lice of his profession, but after tbe breaking out of the civil war return ed home and embarked in business as a wool manufacturer. In 1876, company with his father and brother they erected the fine flouring mills at New Bethlehem, known as "Red Bank Mills," and also engaged in the merchantile business. To these pur suits he has devoted his life, iu all of which he has been eminently success ful and has proved himself a roan of ability, energy and industry. After embarking in tbe woolen business, he took off his coat, took bold of tbe machines himself, became thoroughly practical and produced a line of goods second to none. None enjoyed a higher reputation throughout his own and adjoining counties. Mr. Craig for years drove ont with a wagon himself and distributed tbe product of his mills to farmers and others tbe best flannels, blankets, etc.. that bad come within their reach and none better since, as all will vouch, be cause they were honest goods and honestly made. Mr. Craig in turn bought all the wool tbat came with in his reach, paying a fair price for it.- But, his husiness growing larger from year to year, he increased his plant and turned his atteution to the largest wholesale markets of New York aud Pittsburg iu which be achieved an equally bigh reputation, being the manufacturer of tbe cele brated "Rose of Sharon Blankets," knowu in all counties of Western Pennsylvania. Tbe flouriug mills with which he was connected acquired an equally high reputation, known as the best and among the foremost industries of Clarion and Armstrong counties, aud of which they have always been just ly proud. His experience, his knowledge of the wants of the people, being a la boring man himself, a manufacturer and an educated man, make bim a luao of the people, for the people, and oue who will make hig mark in the Senate of tbe great State of Pennsyl vania. The death of General Nathaniel P. Banks, the once conspicuous poli tician and military leader, occurred at his home iu Walthara, Mass., on Saturday uioruing last. Geo. Banks' great services lo bis country has made bis name dear to the American peo pie, iu whose memory be will live for many generations. Aaron Williams of Bellofonte has received tbe Democratic nomination for Congress in the 28th district. This district ia composed of the coun- ies Centre, Clearfield, Clarion, Elk and Forest and stretches from the Susquehanna river on the east to the Allegheny river ou the west. When the district was formed it was intend ed to take in all the invinciple dem ocratio counties in the central And western sections of the State. But the only way to hitch Clarion to it was to tie the little, staunch Republi can county of Forest to this Demo cratic Juggernaut. Time rolled on and the material in terests of tbe district, under Repnb Iican administrations, were rapidly developed. Coal mines were opened which necessitated the building of railroads. A people full of enter prise and energy flocked iuto tbe die trict and built up such towns as -Du Bois, Phillipsburg, Johusouburg, Ma rien villa and New Bethlehem. Tb Welsh, Scotch and Swede miners from Tioga connty and other coal sections found plenty of work and good wages in this new field, and prosperity reigned on every band. A Demo cratic president was elected, backed by a Democratic congress. Threats were made that the coal would put on the free list. Operators be came'alarmed and began to restrict operations. Tbe consumers of coa found that they did not require as much fuel as formerly. The tide turned. Wages were reduced and strikes followed. Another election was held last wiu ler. Tbe great Republican protec tionist, Hon. Galusba A. Grow, sought tbe votes of tbe electors of Pennsylvania tbat be might represent them in the lower house of congress. His competitor was James D. Han cock of Venango county, a pro nounced free-trader. The miners and laborers of the 28th district conclud ed, that if the mere threat of free trade brought them to tbe verge of ruin the reality would surely com plete tbeir impoverishment. Conse quently they voted for Grow and pro tection. At the election in Novem ber, 1893, tbe district gave 1689 dem ocratic plurality. In February fol lowing Grow received 1963 plurality, a change of 3651 votes in less than four months. The name of the next congressman from this district will be Wm. C. Arnold, Republican, in stead of Aaron Williams, Democrat. DAVID MINTZ'S. Marienvillc, Pa. Mall orders promptly attended to. HIGHEST MARKET TRICE paid for Wool, Sheep pelts, Hides, Ginseng.

Iu bis receut let ter to Mr. Catcbings be says: "lean- not be mistaken as to tbe uecessily of free raw materials as tbe foundation of a logical and eeusible tariff reform. There is common habit of under estimating tbe importance of free raw materials aud regarding tbem only as concessions to be made to our manu facturers. Their influence is so far- reaching that without tbem a bene ficial scheme of tariff cannot be en acted. It will thus be seen that free raw materials and a just aud fearless regulation and reduction of tariff would carry to every bumble home ii : ; r . i messing oi increased comiort ana I . . . , n ,i -i s cheaper living."

President Cleveland's letter of Ju ly 19 to Senator Wilson, and tbat of Aug. 27, addressed to Hon. T. C. Catcbiugs, are slightly at variance on some rather vital points. Should he chauce to be confronted at a single review with their divergeut senti ments the shock might extort the sudden ejaculatiou of a party who some time ago found himself in a like delemma and with a gaze said : "Where am I at?" High office at this stage of American progress and polit ical exigencies will in no way screen the incumbent from such criticism as his language and public acts seem to justify. He cannot gaze through the cylinder of a political kaleidoscope and recite lessons from its projections of divers colors, its various delinea tions of proportion and recite healthy lessons of the day to those looking over bis shoulders. Even though his hearers stand in plain view of his heavy weight, his words fail to convey tbe slightest convic tion that tbey arise from personal experience touching homo industries or boueet motives. His letter to Mr. Wilson was a sort of preamble relat ing to a little of everything, yet more particularly designed to guide the ac tion of tbe tana builders on the ar ticle raw sugar This now famous letter was the means of consumma ting his wishes aud handing over to the Sugar Trust upwards of $40, 000,000. His language employed in tbe affirmative on this question was as clear as the negative in his last.
