THE FOREST REPUBLICAN. 4. C. WINK, (DITOf) PROPRIETOR. WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 9, 18P5. THE STATE LEGISLATIVE. The Pennsylvania legislature met in bi ennial nension at Harrieburg oo tbo first inst., and the organization was effected without incident of Dote. On Monday evening previous the Re publican members held the usual caucus, which was attended by nearly every member of that party, and Henry F. Walton of Philadelphia, was unanimously nominated for Speaker. The Democrats held their caucus on the same evening, nominating An drew L. Friiz of Columbia. At noon, Tuesday, Jan. 1st, the retiring Chief Clerk, Charles E. Voorhess, called the House to order, the roll of members was called, nearly every member being present and answering to his name. Judge McPherson of Dauphin county, was invited to ad minister the oath of office to the members, duly whicb was quickly performed. The election of a speaker was ac complished about as rapidly as the roll could be called and the members could announce their choice. Mr. Walton received 174 votes, Mr. Fritz 28. The election of the other officers of the House did not occupy much time, and were as follows : Chief Clerk, A. D. Fetteralf, Mont gomery; Resident Clerk, Jere B. Rex, Huntington ; Reading Clerk, James . Walkins, Lackawauna; message clert, Forrest R. Nichols, Crawford. Other miuor officers were elected in pursuance of the tecum- mendations of the Republican slate committee. The Qovernor't message was read in the House, occupying about one hour in its persual by the reading clerk. Many of the retiring Gover nor s recommendations are wise and . -u.eSuuie, and doubtlesswMl be V- considered among the leeislatiob to "titted this winter. . if Senate's organization was ac V-yfiabed without friction, Senator i Wesley Thomas of Philadelphia, 'yC: I.J T- J . eiog eieciea rresiaent pro lem with E. W. Smiley of Venango, Chief Clerk, a position whicb he has so ably filled in the past. Both branch es adjourned till this, Wednesday evening at 8 o'clock. The inaugura lion of Governor Hastings takes place next Tuesday, when all the law making power will be in proper run niog order, and if talk goes for any thing the work of the legislature will be promptly done and an early ad jonrnment bad. For the first time in 22 years Mayor not of Democratic faith s at the hcsd of the New York city gov ernment. William L Strong, who was on Jan. 1 inducted into the of fice, represents very much the same conditions and social elements that asserted themselves in 1872 in the elevation of William F. Havemeyer to the Mayoralty. In both instances there was a revolt against municipal corruption. Upon both occasions publio sentiment was chrystalized through the medium of a committee of seventy, the main purpose in 1872 being te overthrow the Tweed regime, and in 1894 to correct abuses known or suspected in the police and other departments of the city government.

This Turney was cacainate lor re election, but he was defeated by II. Clay Evans, the Re publican candidate for Governor. There is no question as to the returns showing a majority for Evans, but notwithstanding this Turney proposes to bold on to the Governorship and nave the Democratic majority in tbe legislature go behind the returns and declare Lim elected instead of Evans - w m n vr ' a m w r w w d ISIb-s-SS&s cr cr . . er ! i?i ! !?i i JiEWSf TiOTES. w o w o 0 o p if! a BSJOV 35 c o a ti' It t; x e " "B8J.iV s i NOTICE Is hereby given that the Com missioners of borest County, acting us a Hoard or Kevixion, win, on tbe inn day of January. 18(15. linHlly determine whether any of the Valuations of the As sessors as returned aoove nave Ixn-n made abovaor below a lust rate accord ina? to ov understanding of the meaning and fnteution of the law.

Phila. Press. A. TAX of $1 a barrel on beer was recommended by Mr. David A. Wells to the Democrats some time ago. It ought to be imposed. The breweries owned by English capital in this country are steadily making money, and there is every sign that the business is prosperous. Such a tax would give the Treasury nearly enough revenue, if tbe income tax yields as is expected. Phila. Preet. Hill and Cleveland have buried the hatchet. Leastwise the badly licked Senator called and took diuner with tbe President last week, and 'tis said they had quite a merry chat with each other, but it is not recorded that the Senator pounded his cheat and announced that "I am a Democrat!" though it may have happened "uube koownce" to the keen reporter.

Neither of the men answered to their names, and upon investigation it was found that one bad been dead three years and the other one year. This leads tbe Meadville Tribune to ask where the men were when they received tbe notice of having been drawn on the Jury T Six masked men made an effort to rob the north bound Cotton Belt train about ten miles south of Camdenj Ark. Tbe train stopped as usual to take water, and tbe colored porter got off the train to go around to the tank to let the water on. He was stopped, however, by a Winches ter in bis face and ordered to uncouple the cars. This order was obeyed, and tbe engineer, who. was under guard, was made to run tbe car up from the train a distance of half a mile. The bandits dis covered too late that they had made water haul, taking the baggage car in stead of the express car. A Pittsburg physician Bends to the Medical Reporter what be claims to be the simplest and and best remedy for hiccoughs of all descriptions, saying that he will put it against any and all devices as an edectlve cure. He says ; "All you have to do Is to lie down ; stretch your head back as far as possible; open your mouth above your head, well back, so that you have to strain the eyes to see them; gaze intently upon them, and take long full breaths. In a short time you will be relieved of that troublesome hiccough. I have tried that cure on al 1 sorts of cases, from simple form to chronic, and it work well with all. I remember it waa gl eu to a man on the way to New York to consult a specialist ou his case one of six months' standing and it cured him in a few miuutes." Appeal Notice.
