Justice of tho Peace James Daltou has boon quito busy for several days aud duriug that time passed judgment on four cases, two of disorderly con duct iiud two of assault and battery. The two cases of disorderly conduct wero trivial and were disposed of hy the payment of the usual fines aud costs. 11l one case of assault aud bat tery tlio complainant did uot appear. The other case of assault and nattory proved to bo a flstio mix-op of two Polish families residing on Northum berland street. Mrs. Joseph Noblitz aud Urs. Maine weje really the contestants, tho altor oatiou taking place early in the moru iug while the women wero purchasing the daily milk supply. Mr. Noblitz, howover, was the de fendant in the case,his efforts as peace maker resulting in a charge of assault and battery being perferred agaiust him by Mr. Maine. Owing to the pres sure of otlior business Justice Dalton could not hear the case uutil four o'clock yesterday afternoon, Noblitz meanwhile waiting his turn in the look-up. Neither pro secutor could speak English, and tliongh Mrs. Annio lieimbach actod as interpreter, the situation was most trying. Noblitz after muoh trouble was made to understand that lie would liavo to pay 15.80 for the privilego of noting as ruforeo, wliiah he sensibly did. A oivil action was brought by W. 11. Courad agaiust Mrs. Wagner of Wost Mahoning street yesterday. The prosecutor alleged that the sum of tls( was due him in wages,he having bean employed on Mrs. Wagner's farm, The defendant stated that the agree meut was that Oourad was to work for his board. Tlie Justice resoivet his decision. National Democratic Headquarters. Democratic unity bus not been finer jiu twelve years. Tho Republicans I have not been so unhappy, having | the candidate tliey have. But, remem ber,they will light desperately to keep : in power, and thoy have the gre.it advantage of being in power. News from Washington, the sent of Democratic congressional campaign headquarters is encouraging. It seems certain that Chairman Bab cock of the Republican Committee, will bo beaten out of bis seat in Wis consin, aud that the D* mocrnts will win the House by a safe majority. There is not a living Democrat of national prominence who supported Cleveland in 1892, and Bryan in 1890 and 1901), who is not enthusiastically supporting Parker. It means victory when such Democrats are united. Mr. Roosevelt's letter of accept ance makes tlie antithesis between him and Judge Parker stronger than ever. Faithfully imitating the boss, Sena tor Fairbanks, marks time with him, suiting tliu action of his long legs to the rough rider strutting In one spot of J lie President. In a recent speech iu New York, the candidate for Vice President said: "What we have done in the past we shall continue to do iu the future." No Republican newspaper has yet contained an interview with Jesse James on the Roosevelt letter of ac ceptance. Be good or yon will get no cam paign funds. That was practically the word that the captains of industry said to Mr. Roosevelt when he left Washington for Oyster Bay. Ho kept I quiet and thought over it for weeks aud weeks. He decided to do what the captains wanted, aud told he might cut loose. He did with a whoop, and all the trust ogres arc grinning from ear to ear. Roosevelt's statement that the com mon law, as developed, "affords a complete legal remedy against mono polios" will no doubt meet the ap proval of Senator Knox, of Pennsyl vania. But who has bothered the common law in this connection? It lias been just as dead a letter as the statutes, Teddy does not think he has en croached as au executive. No em peror ever admits that be en croaches. Why didn't Teddy tell something that had been accomplished by his "chief trust buster," as he designat ed George B. Cortelyou, when be was appointed Secretary of the Depart ment of Commerce anil Labor? 51r. Roosevelt had a good deal to say in his letter about "our oppon ents." There is no doubt that beneath all his bluster "our opponents" have been giving Mr. Roosevelt not a little concern. Talk about rainbow chasing! Here is national committeeman Akins. of Missouri, telling Mr. Cortelyou that be, ''has great hopes of carrying Missouri for Roosevelt." The Chair men from Georgia and Alabama are yet to be heard from. Philander C. Knox, who "busted" the Northern Pacific, merger, but care fully refrained from touching any of the big trusts that plunder the peo pie, is to make a lew speeches for the Republican ticket. Mr. Knox it will bo remembered, was excused from Mr. Roosevelt's Cabinet in order that he might represent the Pennsylvania Railroad in the United States Sen ate. The letter of acceptance reads like the "Rough Riders in Cuba." The ingenuousness of the two—the Roose velt ingenuousness—is quite notable. The former reminds the reader of how Teddy strode up anil down the trenches where tho negro troopers lay and threatened to shoot tho tirsL man who went to the rear, and he told he was going to do it with a pistol given him by his brothel'-in law, Captain Cowles, of the Navy. "So well has the work (of the ad ministration) been done, that our op ponents do not venture to recite the facts about our policies or acts, and i then oppose them," says Mr, Roose velt in his wonderful letter. If "'oui opponents" are not opposing tht facts of the administration, in the 1 name of heaven, what are they op> | posing? At least Mr. Roosevelt is not bold enough to repeat anything to "our opponents 1 ' about his big stick policy. '•lt has been but ten years since the attempt was made to prevent some people from prospering too much," That is the way the Presi dent, 111 his acceptance lotter refers to the Wilson tarifT bill, dismissing it with Rooseveltian flippancy. That sort of horse-play will hardly im press the thoughtful with any other idea but that the subsequent high tariff Republican bill was designed to help "some people to prosper too much." Mr. Roosevelt tried to twit "our opponents" about their position on the civil scryice law. "Our oppon ents" have not forgotten that Presi dent Roosevelt suspended the opera tions of the civil service act more than all his predecessors combined. "Do our opponents object to the settlement of the Alaska boundary lineP" This is a salient question in Mr. Roosevelt 1 * great letter. It will probably go unanswered. Two dollar wheat is now predicted. Roosevelt should issue it supplement to his letter of acceptance claiming ' credit for this great prospective in crease in the price of the cereal. Cortelyou is a wonder. Who but I this colossal genius would have con ceived the idea ol utilizing American j Consuls to take "straw" votes ou ocean steamships? , The negio is our most imitative citizen. A hand of his race organized , recently in Sussex County, Va , for robbery, murder anil arson. They styled themselves '"Hough Killers." j Every man of thcin believed in a "Big Stick" policy. President Roosevelt promises on proper occasion the tarilT slinll be re vised by its friends. Just about the way the friends of corruption tried the abortion investigation of the rot tenness in the Po-it Office Depart ment. SCHUYLER. UF.AR EIIITOK:—AS I am writing we are having very tine rain. It will make the growing grain grow faster than it has since it was sown if snch a thing were possible. Fields that were sown early are quite green, and if this weather con tinues the top will get to IM> very large. There still remains Bonie seeding to do. Farmers are cutting their corn. Many fields are very green, but the early plant ing is ripe enough to cut. Cider mills are busy, and applebutter making is in full blast. J. N. Herr seems to have the "run"in making Cider, his mill is kept Irasy every day. Thrashing is being pushed, and many barns have been cleaned up. Wheat yields are not up to the average, but oats run away ahead in both yield and quality. Clover seed promises to l>e a bumper crop. One farmer, who had 4} acres, thrashed 15J bushels of seed. Other yields are nearly as good. Grapes are plentiful. The apple crop is nearly up to the normal. County Superintendent Derr is on his rounds visiting the schools. He called at the Snyder School yesterday and found Miss Nellie Fethcroff doing good work. T. M. Shade, in making some repairs to his thresher, cut the palm of bis left hand lutdly, necessitating several stitches to close the wound. Levi Schloppich is still unable to work yet. His injured leg does not heal very rapidly. W. J. Sm'tli is raising his house and putting a wall under it. He will also build a piece to the old building. Wm. Marr expects to have the timber, and lumber for bis new bam brought from Opp's Mill tomorrow, and will build a barn this fall to take the place of the one burned by lightning some time ago. His neighbors will do the haul ing. W. C. Shade, while working in a stone quarry, bad an eye injured by a Hying piece ot stone. Glad to welcome your Comly Corres pondent, and hope to see a weekly letter from bis pen. If anybody wants to buy pigs, let tiirn come to this neighborhood. There is a tine crop of them here.

Buckwheat thrashing has l>een in pro gress and the yields have been satisfac tory. Cakes and sausage will soon be ; the early breakfast meal now. Local politics are very quiet, at any gathering of neighbors any other subject | will be discussed before that one. No body seems to be very much interested. Even the chances of the Presidential election elicits little or no notice. Sept. 20, 1904. Bu i.. Continental Pionio Next Saturday. Huuter's Park will close the most successful season in its history with the big Continental Hose Company's picnic Saturday.

Various other attractions are being arranged for and refreshments at rea sonable rates will be sold on the grounds. Everybody is invited to en oy the last big picnio of the season. Eel Season Nearly Over. The eel running season in now Hear ing an eDd though many are still being caught and ofTered for sale. Last Fri day and Saturday nights several hun dred fishermen were on the river all of them operating with more or less saooois. The season for oel oatohing lias abont reaohed its height and will soon be praotically over as few will be rnuning. The rise in the river daring the last fow days enabled many eols to get away or the oatohes would have been heavier. The prloe for the fish has been high bnt so great has been the demand tiiat it was necessary to place advance orders in order to seoure them. The most successful way to oatch eels is by means of the fish wall for wliioh a license is necessary. The Danville fishormen have been making big hauls with tho outline and other methods, though further np the river quite a fow licenses have been takon oat for fish walls. Out In lowa.
