Gen. Setb. Clover, at one time
one of tbe roost prominent men of
the State, and whose memory is still
fresh in the minds of our older class
of citizens, died iu Panla, Kansas,
Nov. 8, 1884, in the 80tb year of bis
age. Gen. Clover was born in Clar
ion county, Pa., August 30tb, 1817,
and from bis early years he was a
forceful character io business and
politics. He held many positions of
honor and trust in this state, Post
Master at Clarion, Auditor, Sheriff
and last tbe prominent position of
Canal Commissioner of the State to

Capt. dimming for Department Com
mander, 0. A. H.
We are now pleased to make pub-
lie a fact known to many Grand Ar
my men, namely, that the Northwest
ern Association, G. A. R , has placed
Capt. II. II. Gumings of Tidioute, iu
nomination tor the office of Comman
der of the Department of Pennsylva
nia, Grand Army of the Kt-puhlic, at
the annual meeting early in 181)5.
lhat the Aews heartily seconds this
nomination goes without the saying,
feeling sure that our strongest state
menls as to his ability and fitness
will be amply realized if placed in
this responsible position. And we
confidently assure tbe Comrades of
the Department that in electing the
Captain they will not only do him.
hut themselves ao honor, and secure
as their executive a most capable and
successful commander. We of I idi
oule who know Capt. Cumtning
know his thorough executive ability,
bis stalwart integrity, bis great ear
neatness, his rare business qualifica
tions and unswerving loyalty to the
Comrades of his organization. For
many years be has been of and
mong us aud ibis voluntary tribute
is due him both bb a man and a citi
zen, lhat be will be elected seems
to us a foregone conclusion, and, with
lue defereuce to the abilities of all
Commanders who have gone before
him, be will stand a peer among them
all.
In this connection it is proper that
we recall briefly tbe array record of
the Captain : In tbe summer of 1862
be, in obedience to his cnuotry s call,
left the senior class of Oberlin Col
lege and enlisted io the 104th Ohio
Vols. Two mouths later while iu
frout of the eoemv he received the
gratifying information that notwith
standing bis absence he bad beeu for
merly graduated with bis class by
special order of the Trustees of the
College on account of his record of
scholarship. From the time of his
enlistment to tbe close of the war, to
which be served, be saw constant ac
tive service at the front under Buell,
Rosecrans, Thomas and Sherman,
participating iu many battles and
skirmishes, bis comrades bearing tes
timony to bis constant presence at
every affair at which his command
was engaged, doing bis full duty as
a soldier and a man.
Shortly after tbe close of the war
be became a resident and business
man ot Tidiute, and during bis
quarter of a century residence he lies
used biB anilities and influence tor tbe
advancement and improvement not
nly of this locality but of tbe great
Commonwealth nf his adoption.
The Comrades of the Department
will make no mistake in making him
their executive. Tidioute Nexus.
To the above the Republican can
cheerfully add that the election of
Capt. Cummiugs would give great
satisfaction to his large circle of
grand array friends and comrades in
this section. He has been indefatigable
iu his efforts for the success of the
Northwestern Association, and the
advancement of tbe old soldiers' in
te rests geuerally. New life and vim
would be put into tbe Department of
Pennsylvania with the Captain's elec
tion, for he uever does anything iu a
half hearted way, but puts his whole
soul iu any work tbat is before bim
Captain Cumiugs, here's wishing you
success.

The National Grange of the Patrons of
Husbandry held its annual session in
Sprlngtleld, Illinois, recently. Twenty
seven states were represented by three
hundred and seventy-five delegates. Re
ports showed that the organization has
20,000 lodges with an average member
ship of 1,000,000. Ninety-four lodges,
with 5,000 members, were admitted dur
ing tbe year. The receipts during the
year were $20,762, with a cash balance on
hand of $16,000.
Fred McDonnell, according to the
Meadville Tribune, still preserves bis
complaisancy, and bis manner is not
marked by any apparent anxiety for the
future. Tbe argument of the defense for
a new trial will be based on alleged er
rors of the court in defining murder in
the second degree, claiming tbat under a
correct definition of tbe term the Jury
must have necessarily found a verdict of
murder in the second degree. Tho do
feuse will also claim to have secured new
aud important evidence.
The new constitution adopted by the
people of New York at the late eloctlou
contains a provision ullowing the use of
machines for voting. Such machines
have been invented and have already
beeu tried with tbe most satisfactory re
sults as to tli e important elements of se
crecy, quickness and accuracy. They
are the only things wanted to make t lie
Australian system all that could bo de
sired. A special advantage of the voting
machine is that it counts automatically
and without error, and as soon us the
polls close the result is seen on opening
the registor. This saves a great deal of
labor ou the part of election boards.
