tlnnal Convention, wn hjoi t l" the decis

STATE DELEGATE.
We are authorized to announce Geo. L.
Kinif, or West Hickory, Harmony town
ship, a a candidate for DelogHln to the
Hop'ililiMn Stile Convention, at Harris
burg, April il.J, IS'.Hi.
It is evident that public tontinieut
in England is gradually grasping the
fact tliat tlie Auiprican view of the
Venezuela matter is l lie one that will
have lii lie given the ri(iht ntf way.
TltK Ohio legislature elected Ex
Governor Foraker to I he U. Sen
ate hs the successor of Calvin S.
Brice, on Wednesday last. The
Domination was a unanimous thing
with the Republican members, and
the election was practically so.
WllKN the bluster quil down be
tween (England and Germany thai
flying tqadr:in will he free to sail in
any direction, and stranger things
have happened than that it should
turn up in the neighborhood of Cuba
to help .Spain in her extremity.
FuPPOSE a Republican President
had been elected io 1892. Does any.
body who is anybody believe, that
bond issues would have been the chief
industry of the Administration ? Sup
pose a Republican President should
b8 elected in 1896 Does anybody
who is anybody think that the bond
issue industry will go on 1 -
! Uoort Word tot' ft (Jowil' Man.
I We notice by the Presa ol the stale
that ll"ii. Waller Merrick, of Moss
burg, Pa , is mentioned as the prob-
able successor of lion Anthony Ban
j non in the Slate Senate from the 25ih
I Senatorial district coinp scd of Tioga,
Poller and MeKeau counties l
have not learned whether or not Sen
ator Hanimn will ask for re election,
but if he should not that district will
do itsell pioud to s nd Mr. Merrick
i He has been a member of the lower
branch for two consecutive termsand,
being a spltndid speaker, has been
instrumental in framing important
legislative meastirts lie is a strong
auli corporation man, an advocate ol
lax reform and never allows an up
pnrluniiy lo pass without speaking in
I lie interest of his constituents
Those who knew Mr. Merrick, as
member of the Lxgislatute, and knew
his habits of industry and his recog
nized ahility, will join the Journal in
saying that no member of the present
House would make better Senatorial
timber than II n. Waller Merrick, of
Tiogo c unity. Clearfield Journal
The above are good words filly
spoken for a worthy and incoriupla
ble man. If ti e people of the Tioga
district would have a representative
in theSiale Senate whom they can
ely on In failfully serve their best
iuterests, they will look no further
than Walter Met rick.

CLEARANCE
China is unfortunate. It can
neiihei fight or make the European
powers jealous of each other. The
result is that England, France and
Russia are carving it up without the
slightest ceremony. If China kills a
single christian, indemuily is promp
tly exacted The Sultau, on the
other hand, murders christians by the
thousand, and yet feels perfectly se
cuie as the pampered pet of Europe.
If the Cuban insurgents would
only el mid up and fight a pitched bat
tie against tlio modern rifles and can
non of the Spanish troops they would
confer a great favor on the Madrid
authorities. But they prefer to dash
on weak points, capture isolated
posts, destroy the sources of laxaliou,
cut lines of communication and grad
ually lorce the Spainiards back upon
their stronghold. Against this plan
of operations the graud strategy of
Campos thus tar has proved a cutn
plete failure.
In the closing mouth of 1813
British force of about 1200 men, with
200 Indians iu addition, marched
upon the town of Buffalo, N. Y , and
captured it after fifty of its AmericuD
defenders were killed The settle
ment was then burued, with the ex
ception of one residence aud a black
smith shop. Buffalo is now a city of
over 300,000 inhabitants, while the
towns on the Canadian side of the
river have grown but little. The
villiiiye that was wiped oat eighty
two years ago could furnish a Urge
army if an emergency required it.
Department of Agriculture.
The new department of argiculture
promises soon to be self-sustaining or
nearly so. It is making a remarka
bly good record iu that direction.
The Dairy and Food commissiou of
this department, which only commen
ced practical work about two months
since, in the mouth of December col
lected $1,720 as oleomargarine fines
Of this $860 went into the stale treat
uiy and the other half to counties iu
which the cases are tried. By law
the lowest fine iu the case of a person
convicted of dealing in oleomargar
ine is 8100, 850 of which goes to the
county and 850 to the state. This
mm. ill the fines already promise to he
something more than the above
figure. The pure food law will soon
be pushed in earnest, too, aud there
A-ill be revenues from this source.
The department hag other sources of
revenue, from fertilizer licenses, etc,
which combine to make a very re
spectable amount. The department,
under tho management of Secretary
Edge, has goiteu very quickly into
working order. For 1895 the reve
nues turned over to the state (reas
ury for the sale of fertilizer licenses
exceeded 812.000. For the first
week of 1896 it has beeu 83,000
Harrkburg Telegraph
A. YOUNU American woman en
gaged in missionary work at Van,
Turkey, wriies to her friends in Mas
sachusetts that 277 villiagee in that
district have been plundered by the
Turkish fanatics, and that 8000 re
fugees are in Van to he fed and
clothed. Her brother is afraid to
leave his house io Biilis, where 500
Christians were recently slaughtered
by a totally uuexprcted rising of the
Turks. The world is full of rumors
u wur, hut the Armenians alone are
i lie victims of its savageries in the
most awful form, with the flu-Is of
Europe idly looking on.

.John Adams was eight years older
ibun his successor, Thomas Jeffersou ;
he eight years older thau James Mad
ison ; he eight years older than James
Monroe, aud he eight years older
than John Q. Adams. George
Washington ended his term as pres
ident in his sixty-fifth year, aud so,
too, did John Adams, Thomas Jeffer
son, James Madison and Jamts Mon
roe. Tli mi us Jefferson and John
Adums both died on I tie same day,
July 4, 1826, exactly fifty year9 after
the signing of the declaration of in
dependence. One other president,
James Monroe, died on July 4 His
dcalh occurred iu 1831. Every pres
idem, it is said, with the single ex
ception of William II Harrison, has
had blue eyes. Hi Lou in Hrpublie
An exact definition of interna
tional law has been in request since
Lord Salisbury declared that it does
ni t include the Monroe d.icl'ine. Iu
a letter to the Loudon Saturday He
view, Prof. Gnldwin Hinith, the Cana
dian writer, supplies one iu there
words: "International law is a law
without a Legislature, without a pn
lic-eman and without a Judge. Its
highest court of appeal is the can
non." As long as the Uuiled Stales
hacks it up the Monroe doctrine will
be as good international law as any.

A plain tale briefly told speed bent.
Shalcespcar.
Twice every year, In January and July,
to keep our workmen busy, we aie
forced to make clothes to your order,
perfect in fit and correct iu style, unsnr
passed in workmanahip, at about the
price of hand-me-downs. Generalities,
even though glittering, carry little con
viction as compared with specitle facta.
To claim, for example, that we have no
competition worthy the name, carrying
as we do, thirty thousand dollars worth
of tlio finest woolens tlio world's 'ooms
produce would Im true, but weak as Cornwall
Men's black and blue Imp'irtvd Seotch
choviots, made to your order, price $15.00.
What would be more natural than to
emphasize the fact that : buying in full
pieces, as wu do, gives the advantage
over tailors who buy cuts?
It does.
But buyers are more interested to
know that we make fashionable Scotch
trousers to order for $4.00.
This throws a side light upon the uni
que and ni'icb envied response to our
advertisements. We reverse usual
methods: on headlines and introductions
we lay little stress, relying upon truth
ful statements and plain facts about
pi Ices.
No deterioration in quality, nothing
auffeia but the price.
Black and blue Scotch cheviots and
thibcts, auo suits to older, price 1 5.00,
former price &4.00.
Scotch mixtures, latest shades, green,
olives aud greys, Baniioekburns, Kdiu-
burgh and Glasgow tweeds, sac suits to
order $16.00, farmer pri-e $20.00.
Rough surface Scutch and English
tweeds and homespuns dunieiths, lin
dens and obaus, rlcn new coloring, sac
suits to order f lM.Ot), former price $3H 00.
Smooth surface English worsteds, cor
rect shades aud patterns, Taylors, Clays
and Mai tins makes, sao suits to order,
price $1.00, former price $32.00.
For dressy cut-a way soils Clays,
Martins, Erains and Taylors, black and
blue English worsteds, cut-a-way suits
to order, price $28.00, former price f W.OO,
