The members of the Republican Coun ty Committee of Forest County are here by notified to meet at the Shoriff's Office, Tionesta, Pa., Monday evening, Sept. 18!9. at 7:30 o'clock, for the purpose of nominating a candidate to till the vacan cy in the Kepublican County Ticket caused by the death ot the Republican nominee for Jury Commissioner, George W. Dunkle. Andfortlio transaction of such other business as may come before them in connection with the present cam paign. A full attendance is earnestly requested. F. P. Walker, Chairman. J. T. Dalk, Secretary. Men of both parties have sent to Pres ident McKinloy messages commending bis Pittsburg speech. True patriotism knows no party. Years bring no loss of enthusiasm in the annual reunions of the Grand Army. The men learned bow to close up ranks in a thorough school. Several relief ships are distributing food in Porto Rico and others will follow. Tho island has another reason to be glad that a new era has arrived. McLiiAN says he wants to fight the Ohio battle on state issues, and no wonder when ho reviews what his crazy quilt platform says on national alfairs. A sew york non-expansionist paper declares that the Dewey reception is a political job. Descent is easy with those who begin to abuse their country. Goehbl, the Democratic nominee for Governor of Kentuckey, denies that be intends to withdraw, which is one of many indications that be is losing ground and squirming. . (iERMANT s demand for Am i ican ap ples this year is expected to reach 100,000 barrels. The increasing foreign popular ity of this fruit adds sensibly to the value of American orchards. A record breaking corn crop isagood thing with which to round out a bounti ful year. The 2,500,000,000 bushels of corn in 1890 reminds tho world again that this is a country of billions. It may be a little embarrassing for those Democratic investigators of trusts when they get their claws hooke in the corporations controlled by the Ohio Dem ocratio candidate lor governor. IIcyan promises to make forty speech es in twenty days in Kentucky. His performance in behalf of the Goebel elea tion law marks the progress of adegener ate. Bryan once believed in fair play at the polls. Alexander Dumas once remarked that if he were accused of stealing the towers of Notre Dame he would bolt and not undertake to Helena himself in a French court. It seems, for one thing, to be a life occupation. A country that has reached an annual mineral output of?7,000,000, and doubled it in seventeen years, has business possi bilities for which history gives no paral lel. And as yet in the United States the surface has only been scratched. comrade mokinley stands for our people, for our flag; he stands before all the world and dosires to be sustained by our people. As an old soldier, as an old A merican, as an old Democrat dyed-in the-wool, I say that Comrade McKinley will be sustained by our people every' where." General Daniel E. Sickles at Philadelphia, Sept. 5, 1890. "Wk differ in our political and religi ous beliefs, but we are united for couu- try. Loyalty to the Government is our national creed. We follow all of us one flag. I1 symbolizes our purposes, our aspirations; it represents what we believe and what we mean to maintain, and wherever it floats it is the flag of the free and the hope of the oppressed, and wherever it is assailed, at any sacrifice it will be carried tc a triumphant peace. Rebellion may delay, but it can never defeat its blessed mission of liberty and humanity." President McKinley at Catholic Summer School Grounds,Cham plaiti, N. Y., Aug. 15. Tbb trial of Captain Dreyfus at Ren- nes, trance, was caucluded Saturday and, as bad been anticipated, be was con victed by the Judges of the court martial, not by the evidence. Hissentance was placed at 10 yours iu prison, five of which bo bad already served. Of course the conviction was a forgone conclusion. There was nothing else expected of the tribunal by which he was tried, it having been formed for that purpose solely. The question of innocence did not enter into their minds. The army must be vindi cated and Dreyfus was made the scape goat. No doubt a new trial will be grant ed by the Court of Cassation, but that will hardly change the result. To let Dreyfus go would open up a large field of trouble for the army, and some of its prominent officers might get on the racks. So there seems but one avenue for the persecuted Captain, lie must shako the dust of France from his leet at firstopportunity. Any decent country would welcome him. "we are once more ana rorever one people. One in faith, one in pur pose, one in willingness to sacrifice for the country and the glory of our flax. The blue and me grey march under one flag and we have but one (lag ; the same our grand sires gavo us aud the same our fathers boro. And that flag which you kept stainless and made triumphant will be kept Btainless and made triumphant." President McKinley to the Grand Army Sept. 5, 1S!K). - The Democratic party, says the New York J!'o)'M,lias now fur the first time in its history only two United States Sena tors Irom all the North, East and West. n uas loet control or the Senate for six years to come. It has no governors left in all the north. Four of the states car ried by the fusion for Mr. Bryan have been reclaimed aud are firmly held by the Republicans. And Kentucky, the only stato regained by tho Democrats sinco IS!!, bids fair to be lost iu November. Tim tirst Alabama iu tuo .t navy, built forty years ago, Is still afloat an the practice ship of the New York Na val Reserve. Her name was changed lo the New Hampshire during the civil war. The new battle ship Alabama, which has just begun her trial trips, is one of the most powerful and swiftest fighting machines the world has yet seen. Her construction in two years and nine months Is comparatively rapid work. According to the Utiea Observer, "the anti-lmporialists have the welfare of the country very deeply at heart. ne should hardly put it that way. They care more for Aguinaldo, the man who reject ed all overtures and deliberately made war on the United States, than they do for the flag, and In giving aid and com fort to this conspirator they are guilty of treason. That is about the way we would describe them. rhila. Inquirer. Aud the Inquirer's description is a highly proper one. A Xoble Defense of the Toby. What wond er that respectable- Demo crats hang their beads with shamo at the uttoranueof men professing to bo lead ers in their party who say, as John J. Lentz did at Cooper Union, New York, tho other day, "Thero is no man to com pare with Jefferson in this generation except Altgeld. God In his wunderful chemistry sees fit to raise up once in a gen ' eration man fit to be favored. He raised lip Washington, thirty years later he pro duced Jefferson, in an other generation, Jackson, after thirty years more Lincoln and now in the closing days of the cen tury we hav Altgold, who is the martyr of this decade." , Wo always like to soe a man who has tho courage of his convictions and who will stand up and dofend a principle in the face of terrible opposition. Now there's Bro. Smith of the Punxy Spirit is just such an one, and because this time it happens to be the despised toby which is involved, he no less comes to the res cue with a noble defense. After all it is the little, apparently trifling, things which really test a man's greatness in such mutters. It's no great shakes to stand up for a big, able-bodied truth or principle that everybody recognizes and respects, but the smaller weaklings are the ones which try men's souls, and it is for this reason we recognize and copy the following (so as to give it general cir culation) from the pen of Col. Smith : The New York Suu, in a recent learned editorial on stogies, defines this import ant article of commerce as "a robust na tive cigar, the smoking of which tends to cultivate frugality. Not jecommended to persons of a queasy stomach." The Sun then goes on in a merry vein to talk of stogies and their effects. It says: "To begin with, you must have a good constitution. It is not for weaklings to tamper with stogies, at least, with the dry fittsourg siocy ot ew xorK. iu the second place, do not expect flavor. Do many cigars uave navorr The stogy will burn. Be grateful for that, and think bow much money you are saving by smoking a stogy instead of a luxurious cigar. In the third place close the win dows of your house, for tu neighbors are couebing ominously. Let thorn couch ; think of what you are saviug. In the fourth place, on the whole, you had better go into the street or the park. You win be driven out of your bouse. Such Is the prejudice against thrift. But perse vere. 1 lie stogy is really a branch of a savings bank." For the Sun, or anyone else living out side the Great American Tobey Belt, to assume to enter tho magic circle and speak familiarly of things forbidden to any but the initiated, is a piece of pre sumption. In the first place the word "stogy" is obsolete. Adepts all use the word "toby," and any man living with in a radius of 150 miles of Pittsburg who would not pn for the rankest kind of a' toby to the finest Havana cigar, would not be regarded as a good citizen. He is not only "stuck up," but he has execra ble taste. There are a hundred varieties of tobies, of all lengths, thicknesses and qualities, The worst toby on the market is better than the average cheap cigar, and a real ly good toby, such as aro never seen outside of circles in which they are ap preciated, is better than anything sold by Delmonico or at the Waldorf-Astoria, We have frequently hunted in vain all over New York City for a toby that was even tolerable. They aro not seen there, 'the toby, like anything else, seeks the bt market. It will not go where it not appreciated. It cannot bear to bear the excruciating jokes and wearisome comments of the uncultured aud profane, Hence only such tobies as are unmark etable within the Toby Belt ever pene trate to New York, unless carried there by some fastidious gentleman from the sacred precincts of the genuine toby. Aud tho Sun's intimation that toby smoking is resortod to as a measure economy is an insult. The toby smoker bas money, at well as tobies, lo burn Offer bim a thick cigar, of the variety that produces cancer of the throat and kalso mines the stomach and liver with nicotine and bis good breeding may induce him to accept it, but. lie will secretly cherish the profoundest contempt for the doner' taste and Judgment. Tho wealthiest iron magnates or Pittsburg vHl toss away with contempt the finest cigar that money can procure and resort with serene satis faction to his favorite toby. If he acts differently when away from home, it is because be is a contemptablo trimmer, who has not the courage and manhood to stand up for his own tastes and convic tions, as well as the great Fraternity of American Toby Smokers. 1 lJi-uUiicaUuu of tUiitaui kuer' Murderer. The mystery that bas surrounded the brutal torture and butchery of William Riser, of Shippensville, the bachelor her mis whose death was caused by three midnight assassius in an attempt to force him to open his safe, after they bad robbed bim of a belt containing an amount estimated at from f9,000;to $10,000, seems to be in a fair way of being cleared up. In this case two small coins utterly un familiar to the people of this part of the State, will probably furnish the long looked for clue, and will take as active a part In disclosing the identity of the mur del ers as did the wad from the lt-gauge shotgun in fixing the killing of George Carter, of Rynd farm, upon Walter Wheat on and bis accomplice, McKay ,of this city. And yet there were a dozen or more guns of this calibre in this neighborhood, while in this clue it is believed that there are no other Mexican ft-cent silver pieces in Pennsylvania, outside of private cotloc ions,kept in cabinets, except those whlc.i were in the possession of William Riser, tortured, murdered and robbod by three men in a mauner atrocious enough to cause shame to bloom in the face of the most blood-thirsty savage. Urged on by the reward ol $ 1,000 offered by the relatives of William Kiser there bad been a posse of detectives at work even before the murdered man was laid to rest in the cemetery at Shippenvllle, where be met bis death in such a terrible mauner. These detec.ives have covered the ground thoroughly, and their re searches have made them visit nearly ev ery farm and town between Buffalo and Pittsburg, and from Shippenville to New Castle. During the past week the coins came to light. They were found in the possession of two little children in Cran berry township, and now the detectives are Interested in discovering their travels before they reached these innocent little children, as this money, it now seems al most a certainty, was in the possession of William Kiser before he was killed. They are of silver,donomination five cents.and were coined in Mexico. So far as the de tectives have been able to discover there have never been coins of this nature in circulation id this or adjoining counties, and possibly no other man but Willian Kiser in Pennsylvania evei owned such a coin its these. Owing to the secrecy that naturally fol lows the movements and operations of the men employed iu collecting evidence and facts that promise to lead to the de tection of the men responsible for such au atrocious murder as (hat of William Kiser, and their absolute refusal to ans wer any question whatever that might give an idea as to whom tbey suspect of the crime, nothing further can be pub lished at this time, but from the amount of time, and the large number of men they have engaged in following up this clew of the strange coins, and which is now a topio of general conversation in Cranberry township, where the coins first came to light, and from Shippenville from whence they are believed to novo beensto'.en, there is no doubt but that the detectives attach much Importance to their discovery, and that it Is not unrea sonable to expect that important devel opments at least, if not several arrests, will follow within a day or two. Oil City Derrick. Of course tbe absense of evidence that Kiser ever possessed a coin such as the Derrick describes would naturally raise considerable doubt in people's minds as to the value ot the theory here presented, but a clew is a clew and should be fol lowed lo its legitimate end. Very often the smallest or most Insignificant thing, apparently, proves the rjost valuable in the long run. And it may develope that Kiser had at some timo possessed such coins.
