The ticket placed before tho people in this county by tho Re, ublii-an party this fall is one which every itizen must ad mit Is composed of men in every way fitted for ihe offices for which they have been nominated, and are deserving of the loyal support of their party in every sec tion. KOIt ASSOCIATE JUPOK, the party has R. B. Crawford, and so uni versally popular has this selection proven that the opposito parties havo evidently not considered it worth while to put up a candidate against him, lor ho has 110 op position. This Is quite complimentary to Bruce, but it is by no means unde served, tor his trieuds are legion and his incumbency of tho honorable position to which ho will be elected will b a credit to himself as weil as to tho county. Be sides, his elocti.m will bo a substantial recognition of an old soldier, whose war record is as creditable to him as his civil lite anions us has been honorable. FOB rROTIIONOTASY, John II. Robertson was re-notuinated without opposition, a compliment to his fitness for the place and his good official record that carries its own comment. Tho county has never had a more compe tent, pains taking or obliging l'rothono tary than Mr. Robertson, which Is saying a reat deal , for we have had none but good officials in that office for many years past. Tho records under his charge have been adm rably Kept, and it has been a pleasure to transact business at that of fice, where all are treated with most unl form courtesy. Mr. Robertson's Repub licanism is of tho right stripe ami ho is atways lound in the harness when want ed. A vote for him is a vote to retain a most competent official in one nf tho most important offices in the county, and that's what the peoplo want, regardless orpartizan feelings. FOR SHERIFF, The party has placed in nomination a most worthy and deserving candidate, Join- W. Jamieson. There is not a man in forest county who knows him but that will readily concede that he will mako an exceptional!" good official in any capacity, and especially so as Sherifl, in which capacity he has had considerable experience as deputy under other of- fic.als, A more gentlemanly citizen is not to bo found in the county; always courteous toward friend and foe alikfi and a bigger hearted man we have never known. In all our acquaintance with John Jamieson, and that extends from early childhood, we never knew him to be capable of doing a mean or small trick but we have known him to make very many sacrifices for others, and his bitter est enemy would not go amiss it in dis tress lie were to call on him for any help ho might bo alle to rondor. In politics he has beon a liie-lonir Republican, never lunching when his party was assailed, and tha Republican voter in Forest county who cannot support Mr. Jamie, son is mado of very strange material. If ever a candidate on the ticket deserved the loyal, unitf d and hearty support of we Kepnulican party of Forest county that candidate is John W. Jamieson. Of his capabilities for the ofll o there isn't a question, and the peoplo will never re gret having elected him to a position for which ho is so admirably fitted. FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, Tho candidates on tho Republican, ticket aro Charles M. Whiteman and James H. Morrison, both loyal Repub licans ar.d both loyel-headod careful businoss men. Mr. Whiteman has been a member or the present board for three years. During that incumbency he has never faltered in doing what ho conscientiously believed to bo his duty to tho taxpayers of the county. Often this course has appeared antagonistic to some, no doubt, but lie has never been swaved from what he thought was right and to the best intoreits of tho county. No liv ing man can do his wholo dutv in an of- fichil capacity and satisfy all the people j more wi.i be those who will find fault, and very often without causo. It would be useless to try to please everybody 1 and it is only the milk-and-water sort of man who will attempt it, and they always mil. iur. v lineman's record in the com missioner s office is entirely creditable to him and we don t believe his enemies, even, will deny that ho has made a good' official, usiug good judgment in all his transactions. He is the only member of meproseat board t'lat is a candidate for re-electi -n, and with the present state 01 allairs it would certainly bo sensible policy to retain at least one mombor of tho old board in office. This ought surely to be plain to tho tax payers of the coun ty. We believe it is, and that, regardless of personal feeling they will vote to re tain Mr. Whiteman for throe yoars long er. Mr. Morrison, the of er Republican candidate, has for many years conducted a successful lumbering business in Jenks township, and has beon one of its fore most and most active public spirited citizens. Although somowhat crippled at present, rendering him unable to make such a thorough canvass of the comity as he would like to, his mental faculties are most vigorous and active, and ho has directed his business affairs in a very successful manner. He is a pains taking, economical and very level-head-biirfimss mm, thoroughly acquainted Willi tho needs and affairs of tho county, and will bring to the commissioners' office ripo experience and splendid ex ecutive ability. With such men as Mor rison and Wlitieman to look after the taxpayers' interest there will bo 110 dang- atlairs will be conscientiously and hunt-ally administered. Stand by them when you cast your ballots and you may rest assured you will have made no mistake. FOR COCKTT AUDITORS The candidate are James R. Clark and George L. King. To those who know them these gentlemen need mo recommendation for the offices for which the parliy has unanimously nomiuated them. Mr. Clark has very acceptably filled the position for three years past, and we believe hts colleagues on the board will bear us out in saying that he is the right man in tho right placo. Mr, King is a shrewd young business man, a good accountant, and may be depended on to do his duty with fidelity. There w ill be no laxness in the discharge ol their worlt with thoso two competent men on tho board of County Auditors. They should be elected by good ma jorities. FOR Jl'KY COMMISSIONER. Levi O. Reynolds is the Republican nominee. Mr. Reynolds has been a li e long resident of the county, a staunch Republican and will make a good of ficial. He is sure of the election, theru being two to elect, and each voter being privileged to vote for only one, and the people wil!be well satisfied with his of ficial acts. Is is the duty of every Repgblican first, to vote the ticket straight, second to put his shoulder to the wheel and, iu every honorable way, asist in rolling up an old fashioned majority for every individual on the ticket. The Republican party de serves the credit ot bringing about the splendid prosperity which the country Is now enjoying, and in order to per petuate and continue that prosperity it is necessary to stand by the party's nomi nees, not only in State and National af fairs, but in county matters as well. No party can long exist if the individual members persist iu knifing the local ticket There's where the wider fiold of politics springs from, and there ic the place to show your Republicanism. Try to sink personal dislike if you have any, and stand by the caudidates of the party as yon would want them to stand by you under like circumstances. Be loyal to your party at all times, and espocialty so when its candidates are being assailed by the common enom, who, when you help thorn to an office will turn on you or you friends at the first opportuniiy and crush you if they can. Stand by the ticket. More Than Keeping Etou. Despite the predictions of the Demo crats a few years ogo tho Government revenue thus far during tho present fiscal year has excoedod Mie Government ex peuse. No wonder the opponents of the Republican party and of the policy of protection turn from the question of tar- ilt and begin howling about the trusts. They deceived the people in 1896 with their lies, and now in an effort to diveit the public mind from those lies they howl about something else. At the end 01 1110 nrsi quarter 01 the tiscal vear a surplus of f2,000,0OJ is shown. Tho Gov ernment revenue for the three months has beon ( 17,000,000 more than what it was during the same period of last vear. and the expenditures have fallen to $45,- 000,000. 1 he customs are yielding from $600,000 to $1,000,000 a day, and internal rovenuo nets $1 000,000 each day, both showing an aggregate gain over the same period of last year of $5,000,000. The War Department is sending an averago fu,oiji,oooeacli month, while the month ly expense of our navy is $5,000,000. We are carrying on a war on the other side ol tho world where we pre taking care of a great army of American soldiers as no nation has ever taied for its soldiers b -lore; we are adding battle ships, cruisers and torpedo boats to the navy in a man ner that is attracting the attention of all nations, and yet we show a cash balance and surplus for the past three months, the first quarter of the new Ileal year. More and more each day is the proof furnished that the protectivo tariff that bears the name of the late Mr. Dingley, one of the greatest and brains statesmen America ever produced, is fully capable ofprovidingforall the expenses or our Government in times of peace, and more and more each day is it being demonstra ted that tho finances of this country were never in better hands. Dos Moines State Register. McKinley won't get the vote of a sin gle tramp next year. They aro tired of finding themsolves un acrainst a wnh inn- job every time they turn around. IIorsk cars linger in the streets of New York for the benefit of the lovers of an tiquities. The nam er of horses em ployed on these lines is still over 5,000. If Aguinoldo has not yet scloctod a coat of amiB the Democratic rooster would fit tho case. Ho pioclaims that all the hopo he has left is pinned upon that bird. Dewey's $10,000 watch, a gift from Boston, is to be inscribed, "Gridley, you may firo when ready." With such a timepiece tha Admiral should never be late to breakfast. If, as quoted in Chicago, $G.!t0 per hun dred is the highest price paid for live stock since 1884, it would seem the pro ducer and not the beef trust is getting the benefit of the prevailing high prices. A good larmer in Wilson township has tiiedtoloan his surplus money to his neighbors at 5 per cent, straight, but has been unable to do so owing to the present restoration of confidence and the large amount of money among tho people. Is this not a strange condition to the men who said that Republican success would mako money high and scarce T Clinton Public. Aouinalpo will scan tho election news from the United States four weeks henco with a good deal of interest. A victory for his friends tho Democrats iu the states which vote this year would nerve the rebel chief to make some fierce fights against tho Americans. It might, in fact, make him believe that he would yet have a chance to burn Manila and massacre all Its white inhabitants. Otis' army, backed by the Republican party of tho United Slates, has baffled Aguinal- do in his schemes of rapine and blood thus far, but a victory for John McLeon and for Bryan's ticket in Nebraska would lead him to think that his friends were coming into power and that his day of triumph was nottr. The Destruction ol Protection, Not of the Trusts, the Arowed Pur pose of Fife-TrAder. When the nation is more prosperous than ever before in its history, making supremely rediculous the predictions f the free trade and free silver combina tions as to what would follow Republi can success in 1896 and the passage of a protective tariff bill, it might be supposed that the free trade and free silver advo cates would remain quiet until at least some kind of a reaction appeared. But ibeyarenot ordinary people, and the facts are of no account to them. Hence tho country has Bryan leading bis party to destruction on the silver question, and a set of equally foolish Democrats secret ly trying to bring the tariff question to the front. Circulars have been sent broadcast to men supposed to bo in sympathy with tho rree trado advocates asking them for contributions to subsidize newspapers and writers to advocate free trado. Th se circulars emanate from The New Eng land Free-Trado League. Tho first cir cular states that "tha league has about completed arrangements under wnich a series of articles will be puJblishod in one leading paper of each of the principal cities," the articles apparently to attack "trusts." But the rree-tradflrs are iK.t real enemies of the "trusts," as this circu lar, dated September 21, explains: "It is not the province or tho league to make war upon the trusts, but to make war on the protective tariff," and it desires "to direct the popular feeling against trusts," so as to hurt the tariff, and contributions of money are called for to carry on that work. Of course to attack trusts directly when free trado England has hundrods of them, and many now on. s are being formed there every weok, would be Im polite. Therefore the loague says that its province is not "to make war upon the trusts." Another circulai of the same date gives the plan of work. Tho league has, if we are to beliove tho circular, secured the services "ofa number of our loremost publio men, who have promised to write lotters." Tho names of these foremost men areas follows: Donelson Oaffrey, J. sterling Morton, J. Do Witt Warner, Worthington C. Ford. William Lloyd Garrison, Thomas G. Shearman, Clifton R, Breckenridge, Franklin Pierce, Louis F. Post, Henry L. Nelson and A. B. Far qnhar. That is a list calculated to. raise a smilo on the faco of the most funreal person. Tboieisnota man mentioned on the list who has not been howll g fur free trade for many years, and yet the nation is more strongly protectionist to day than ever before. Mr. Caffrey, the only man who holds a publio office Is the Senator from Louisi ana who filled 350 columns of the Con gressional Record in one session to show ch:elly why there should be a l.lgher tar iff on sugar, as his material interests aro embraced in a sugar plantation. And yet the circular starts out with the state ment that it is the intention to illustrate the recent declaration of Mr. tlavemeyer, head of the sugar trust, that tho tariff is responsible for tho trusts. Ilavemeyer and Caffrey denouncing the tariff on su gar is certaiuly a combination that would mako the tort ine or any freak manager. The tearful Shearman of Brooklyn, who has boon writing Free-Trado lottors for such a long limo to Britis 1 newspapers ; Louis F. Post, a Socialist leader of New York, and V. L. Garrison, as "foiemost public men," is certainly w.iat might le cal lo I "a curtain raiser." It is (interesting to note tho newspa pers with which, according to tho circu lar, "arrangements" have been made to publish these wonderful articl s. We are told that they aie such papers as tho Boston "Transcript," New York 'World," Philadelphia Record," Bal timore "Sun," Springfield "Republi can," Manchester "Union," Milwaukee "Journal," Kansas City "Times" and Pittsburg -Post," which havo alioady accepted the league's proposal. The list of subjects is also interesting. At the bead is the "tin plate." The objeot is to hayo the duty on tin plate removod on the giound that there is a "trust" in that industry. And yet the London newspapers have been full of articles lately telling of tho succossful organiza tion of the British Tin Plate Trust. Evidently all the League needs to do to got the money it wants to pay for the writing and publication of its articles is to apply to tho British Tin Plate Trust, Another subject, is "wall pa per," an article more completely in the grasp ofa trust in Great Britain than any other. "Wire nails" is another snbject. They have never been manu faetured to any extent in Englan !, feut are a German product, and were con trolled by a German "tr.'St" when the duty was first put on them in this coun try in 1883. Then they sold for 10 cents a pound. That trust is still in existence In Germany. After the Protective duty was Impose') and the industry estab lished in the United States wire nails sold hero for years for less than 2 cents a pound, although the duty was 4 cents a pound I There are trusts which control abroad nearly every article lo be attacked by the loague. Tho friends of Protection in the United States will awjilt this on slaught with great calmness. They have hoard of the New England Free Trade League before aud haye noted with great pleasure that since its for mation In Boston the Republican ma jority In New England has steadily In creased, going far beyond anything eyor bofore known in tho history of the party.

The North and South stand shoulder to shoulder as the flag is carrle I forward. The President put a good deal or his tory into small compass when he said in a recent speech : "Tho United States has never repudiated a national obllgition cither to its creditors or to humanity." His plodgo that "it will not now begin to do either" will be sustained by the peo ple. Mr. Cleveland remarks that he is opposed to the use or force in tho exten sion of American institutions, This is rather vague. On one occasion Mr. Cleveland used some strong tanguago in regard to the Monroe doctrine and his hint at force caused quite a sensation. New lioods. Tionesta, Pa., Oct. 25, 1899.
