THE State ticket nominated by the
Independent Republicans of Pennsyl

other ticket-in the CITIZEN. All our
Republican readers can thus see both
State Tickets, and then read, reflect,
and vote, as to them seems most right
and best.
Ma. HENRY HALL, present editor of
the Mercer Dispatch, was one of the
Congressional Couferees for Mercer
county attending here last week. He
is an agreeable gentleman and made a
pleasant impression upon all our citi
zens with whom he came in contact.
H. B. Bowser, Esq , a prominent
young lawyer of Mercer, was also here
in comptny with Mr. Miller and bis
conferees.
Mr. H. C. Bioss ; the able editor of
the Titusville Herald, Crawford coun
ty, <vas also here attending as a con
feree of that county, on the part of Dr.
Roberts.
Mr. H. C Grenner, connected with
the same journal, also accompanied
the conferees from Crawford.
All the above gentlemen, as well as
the candidates, paid our office a welcome
and pleasant visit. We hope they may
Pll find future occasions to bring them
this way again. _
Tbat AM*e»T»nieiit IIUSIIICBB.
The case of Harry Walker, who it is
alleged was dismissed as a clerk in the
Postoflice here by Miss Robinson, the
Postmistress, because of his declining
to pay certain political assessments on
his salary, seems to require a brief
statement of facts, from which all can
draw their own conclusions. These
facts are derived from Esquire Lewis
P. Walker, the father of Harry, and
who authorizes this statement.
Young Walker lately received three
different notices of assessments on bis
salary, which is only $300; twoof them
from Philadelphia, from Cooper, Chair,
man of the Regular Republican State
Committee, and one from the Hubbell
Committee, at Wasgington, D. C. The
notices were for $7.20, $7 and $6. The
last one from Cooper bad on it, in
marked, red letters, the words, "No
2." To these notices Harry refused
to respond, after consulting with bis
father and friends. And whether the
notice be afterwards received from
the Postmistress, that bis services in
the oißce would not needed after
first of coming month, had anything to
do with his refusal to pay these assess*
ments, will be a question for each one
to determine for themselves. There
might be some difficulty in determining
this point if it were not for a furtbe r
fact stated by Esquire Walker, to-wit ;
that some Jays ago be was called upon
by a Stalwart politician of this place*
who informed him that a great pressure
was being brought on Mr. Thomas
Robinson, father of the Postmistress,
to have Harry removed as clerk in the
office. This Stalwart, Esquire Walker
states, also gave it as his opinion that
Harry would or ought to be removed
W hat the motive here was may be
judged from the fact th it Esquire Walk
er is an open ' Independent" in politics,
at present. Whether it was to coerce
or silence him, through fear of his son
losing his o!fi.:e, he has hisowuopiuion.
Certain it is that the dismissal of his
son comes at such a time as to confirm
his opiuion as to its real cause. And
more certain it is that this assessment
business is most disgraceful to any
party. The idea of big, a'»!e bodied
men, traveling around the State and
faring sumptuously every day, and all
their expenses being i»id from money
assessed from poor clerks and scrub
bing women in the public offices, is one
that should be resented at the pollj in
November next by ever honest voter
in tbi- county and in the State.
As Mr. Marshall alluded to this case
of Harry Walker in his speech here to
the Independents on last Wednesday
evening, and as the facts have been
denied by correspondents from here lo
some uf the Pittsburgh pipers, the
above statement is made on authority
of Harry's father, and we prouuie will
£et at rest all controversy iu the matter-
JUDGE JACOB K. BOYD, formerly of
this place and now of Kansas, is at
present on a visit to his brother here,
Mr. Win. S. Boyd. Judge Boyd
studied law here and was admitted to
the Bar in the year 1840. Alter
practicing here and in New Castle, in
partnership with the late Judge Mc- i
Guftiu, dee'd, he went west, to lowa >
where he resided until he went to
I Kansas In both these States he has
held the position of Judge; that in
Kansas, which he now holds, being
known as Judge of Police Court, in
which all criminal business is tried.
Tiie old friends here of Mr. Boyd were
pleased to see him back to his old home.
Tliouiaa H. Marshall.
There is no use trying to belittle
Thomas M. Marshall in Butler county.
He came here last weak to speak to hi?
old friends and acquaintances, who are
numbered by the thousands. He has
been one of the pioneers of every good
cause. His was one of the first voices
heard against slavery, and in favor of
"free men, free speech and free lands."
On every question affecting the rights
of the great mass of the people he has
for years been among the foremost and
the bravest. With the courage of a
lion he speaks out what be thinks, al
ways following his convictions of duty
and of right. In this campaign he be
lieves that "bossism" is the only real
issue, and he is going to denounce it
until election day. The best thing his op
ponents can do is to continue their mis
representations of him, but the people
of this county know his power and his
worth, and will always turn out to
hear him.
Two MeellnßH.
Two Republican meetings were held
iu this place last Wednesday night 5
one in the Court House and the other
in the Park iu front of the Court
House. In regard to the fact of these
meetings both being called and held on
the same evening, we believe, from all
we can learn, that it was accidental.
It seems that the friends of each of the
Republican State tickets, Independents
and Regulars, desired to havo the ben
efit of the County Fair for a meeting ;
and as Wednesday the 20th, the
second day of the Fair was understood
as going to be the day on which the
largest number of people would likely
be in town, each had made arrange
ments to have a meeting on the even
ing of that day. These arrangements
once being made could not easily be
changed, without disarranging 1 the
times at which the State candidates
were engaged to speak at other places
in the State. Hence both meetings
had to go on. So far as wc were con
cerned we would much have preferred
if they had been held on different even
ings or days. And this we know was the
wish of the people generally. Many
desired to hear bott set of candidates,
which they could not well do on the
same evening. However, many did
manage to see and to hear some of the
remarks of both set of speakers.
We have not been furnished with
the full proceedings of either meetiug-
The one in the Court House was pre
sided oyer by Gen J. N. Purviance, with
a number of Vice Presidents, and was
addressed by Mr. Brosius, candidate
on the Regular ticket for Congressman"
at-Large ; by Gen. Beaver, candidate
on the Regular ticket for Governor, by
by a Mr. Burr, of Philadelphia, and by
Congressman S. H. Miller.
The Independents were presided
over by Mr. Josiah R. Spang, member
of the Independent State Committee
for this county, with a number of Vice
Presidents, and was addressed by Col.
Levi Bird Duff, of Pittsburgh., Inde
pendent candidate for Lieutenant Gov
ernor; Col. William McMichael, of
Phil adelphia, Independent candidate for
Congressman-at-Large, and by the
Hon. Thomas M. Marshall, of Pitts
burgh.
The meetings were both respectable
in size. We have seen the Court
House much fuller than it was on that
evening, although it was well filled j
and during the delivery of Mr. Mar
shall's speech on the outside, there is
no denying that there was a large
audience listening to him, a larger
number iu fact than qould possibly have
been put into the Court room. It was net
generally known that he would be
present, else we have no doubt many
more would have been in from the
county to hoar him, as he is a general
favorite with our people.
Thus Butler had the honor of wit
nessing what came nearer a "joint dis
cussion," than has happened at any
other place so far in this campaign.
The people are desirous of hearing all
sides and we presume there will be
other meetings yet held. At the meet
ings last Wednesday evening good
music was on hands for both sides, the
Independents haviug the benefit of the
excellent Germauia Cornet Band of
this place, aud the Regulars the servi
ces of a band from Pittsburgh.
The strange mutations of fortune
which sometimes overtake men in this
changeful world are curiously illustra
ted iu the case of a Dane named Louis
•Jans-en, who was recently arretted in
Chicago, charged with selling liquor
without license. Janseu is described
a-< a man of commanding presence, and
straight as au arrow. Four or five
years ago he was chief counsel to the
King of Denmark, but for some un
known reason was dismissed from his
position, and subsequently came to
America iu very poor circumstances.
Jle lias since been earning a scanty
living for himself and family by keep
ing a saloon in Chicago. It would
seem as if a kind's counsel could find
something better to do than selling
liquor without license.

The Third Trial.
The Congressional Conference of
this district re-atstmbled at the Lowry
Ilous.', in this place, on Thursday
evening last. The same gentlemeu
were present as conferees as at former
meetings of the conference, excepting
that from Crawford county, Mr. II C.
Moss, editor of the Titusvllle Herald,
appeared as a conferee in place uf one (
of the former ones of that county. All
the three candidates, I>r. Roberts, Mr.
Miller aud Mr. McJunkiu were present, i
On Thursday evening two ballots j
were taken, with the same result as on
former occasions, each county adhering
to its own candidate. An adjournment
was then taken to Friday morning, at
9 o'clock, when several more ballots
were then cast with same results as
formerly. Then another adjournment
was had to the afternoon. At the
afternoon meeting a proposition was
made that the candidates should release
their conferees from any personal obli
gations to them, aud that the different
conferees should then proceed of them,
selves in the effort to effect a nomina
tion. This proposition had been spoken
of during the day and was finally
agreed to by all the candidates, and
the following paper prepared and sign
ed by them, as follows :
LOWRY HOUSE, BUTLER PA., >
September 22, 1882. )
To Messrs. Steele, Spearman, Waller
and others, members of the Republi
can Conference of the 2(5 1h Con
gressional, Pa , Di trict. Gentlemen :
We hereby release you from all
personal obligations to ourselves and
are willing that you shall proceed to
make a nomination, from the candi
dates now before the conference, which
you may consider consistent with the
claims of our respective counties and
the welfare of the Republican party in
the 2fUh Pa. District. The candidate
to be determined upon alone by the
conferees now in session. If no nomi
nation be made before the conference
might deem it proper to djourn to some
oher place the candidates are to be re
stored to the power and authority now
and heretofore reposed in them, and the
effect of this paper to cease. The pow
er hereby vested in you not to be trans
ferred to any other authority or sup
posed authority. Each county to cast
three votes in the conference at each
ballot by the conferees representing
each county present at the time.
W B. ROBERTS,
S. H. MILLER,
J. D. MCJUNKIN.
Under the above agreement the con.
ferees again assembled on Friday even
ing and took several ballots, without
any conclusion. An adjournment wa
had to Saturday morning, when they
again convened and several more votes
were taken, the conferees of each coun
ty voting as before. It then having
become evident that a nomination was
no nearer at hand than before, an ad
journment was agreed upon, the con.
ference to meet in Pittsburgh, at Mon
ongahcla House, on Tuesday, Oct. 3d.
During all the sessions of the con
ference here the utmost good feeling
prevailed. It was the first visit to
Butler of a number of the gentlemen
from Crawford aud Mercer counties,
and they all expressed themselves as
well pleased with our town and our
people. And so ended the third meet
ing and trial to make a Republican
candidate for Congress in this district
We hope the coming fourth one may be
more successful and that our county
may yet be accorded her rights in this
matter.

BUTLER, September 20.—With Gen
eral Beaver addressing a Stalwart
meeting in the Court House and Duff,
McMichael and "Glorious Old Tom
Marshall" talking to au Independent
meeting in the Diamond just across
the street, Butler had a nearer approach
to a joint discussion to-night than
General Beaver's modesty has permit
ted heretofore. A platform was put
up in the open air iu front of the Court
House, and when the speakers were
escorted to it by the Butler Brass Band
it was surrounded by a large crowd in
spite of the threatening rain. The
meeting was called to order by J. B.
McJunkin, son of Judge McJunkin.
J. R. Span*? presided, aud the chairs
on the platform were all filled by Vice
Presidents who are well known as Re
publicans.
OPENED WITH A IIURRAH.
Colonel Duff was the first speaker.
When he camo forward he was receiv
ed with three cheers, loud enough to
make the Court House windows jingle.
The two meeting were clo&e enough to
gether to allow the cheers of one to
echo iu the ears of the other, but not
so close that the discordant remarks
got mixed. Colonel Duff gave his
principal attention to what he held to
be the vital issue—whether the Re
publican purty should be managed for
the good of the country or the country
run for the benefit of the party. He
explained how Carnero: had bought
votes for Rawle in the convention, and
after arguing the inconsistency of the
Stalwurt campaign management with
the principles in the Republican plat
form give place to Colonel McMichael.
Mr. McMichael spoke very briefly,
making his strongest point in the Hub
bell assessments, citing the instance of
a little boy in the Government service,
so poor that his clothing w> s given
him bv charity, yet he was assessed
s.'{ to help elect Beaver. His speech
was loudly cheered, but there was a
manifest impatience to hear Marshall.
There were frequent calls for him, and
when his tall form appeared upon the
platform, as be stood and slowly took
off his overcoat with a business-like
air, he was .heerod first a-» plain Tom
Marshall. Then three aud a tiger for j
TIIE OLD WAR-HORSE.
He said he had come up to open the
Republican campaign iu Butler county i
because it was the home of his boy-1 1
hood ; tie countv into which his father
had brought wife, his 11 children and
his hou.-ehold goods in an old broad
w 1 t-eled wagon, away back in eighteen
and twenty something. The people
Leri- knew be haJ always been a lie
publican ; he wa-* a Republican before
vji«'Li«-riil Beayer wms burn, and nobody
new it better than the people of Butler
coun:y. Sixty years ago when he
kuelt with his 10 older brothers aud
sisters while his pious father prayed,
he had morning and evening heard a
petition offered up that the shickits
might be stricken from the slave aud
all men made equal before the aw.
Upon that platform he was here to
speak to-night, because there are more
WHITE SLAVES
I in this country to-day than there ever
! were negroes in Mar}'laud. tor a
recent instance he detailed his ex
igence at the llarrisburgh Conven
tion, where he went as a delegate for
Major Brown, another Butler county
boy. He found that Brown bad an
honest majority of the convention, but
the first day iu Harrisburg he met a
long, tall man with red hair, one J. D.
Cameron. This red-haired man said
to him, "I can tell you who will be
Supreme Judge." "Who?" "Kawle.
I promised it to him last winter, and
he will get it." "Look into your
hearts," thundered the orator ; "ques
tion your manhood, men ot Butler
county , and say if any red-headed dic
tator shall give away your votes before
you cast them." Continuing, Mr.
"Marshall detailed how a great big man
of 220 pounds weight came to him and
said: "1 am a delegate from Wyom
ing county. Can I do anything for
vou ? 1 owe you a great deal.' Mr.
Marshall recognized him as an old
client, and said: ' \es, you owe me
money and you owe me gratitude. I
saved" your nephew from the peniten
tiary when he was indicted for robbing
the posloffice. My nephew is a candi
date for Supreme Judge. If you are
pledged to no other vote for him." The
man promised he would, and was en
thusiastic for Brown until Cooper
caught him and took him up to Don
Cameron's room. In the convention
he voted for Rawle, and on the first
list of appointments in the Pension De
partment after the convention appeared
the name of I) N. E. Matthewson, the
delegate from Wyoming, for an office
at SI,OOO a year, his appointment be
ing made at Don Cameron's solicita<
tiou.
SOME FROZEN FACTS.
lie disclaimed any intention to say
an unkind word of Geueral Beaver.
He was a brave soldier of the Repub
lic and had lost a leg in its service,
but he had said in his letter dteliniug
the nomination for Congressman
at-Large: "If you live up to your
platform, you should succeed ; if you
betray it, you should perish." He
was here to night to say that they had
broken every plank in it, aud were no
longer deserving the support of men
who believe in its principles. He in
-1 stanced the removal of Collector Sul
• livau, whom Carl Schurz had charac
. terized as the best collector in the
service of the United States. Five
' years ago, he said, Cameron bad de
manded Sullivan's removal to make a
. place for Thomas Robinson, of Butler.
. Greer had notified Sullivan to resign,
but Hayes wouldn't remove him.
Garfield came next, and he, heariug
that Sullivan was an honest man, re
i fused to remove him. Then, under
i the providence of God, but by the in
t stigation of the devil Chester A. Arthur
became President. He heard Sullivan
wasn't for Cameron and ofF came his
' head. So much for the civil service
plank. Then, as to compulsory as
sessments. Harry Walker, a clerk in the
Butler postoffice, received three separ
ate notices from Chairman Cooper de
manding 2 per cent, of his salary to
help elect Beaver. He paid no atten
tion to them. To-day he received a
notice that his services were no longer
required by the United States.
Would honest men vote for candidates
whose campaign expenses were col
lected by such blackmail ? Yet
Brosius says the contributions aie
purely voluntary. "If a man that can
stand up and say that," said Mr. Mar
shall, "fills the hole I left in the ticket,
God help me, it needed a mighty small
plug !"
TO DON, (MEETING.
He then detailed how he came to be
nominated at Harrisburg, how Mc-
Manes had begged him to stand for
the sake of whipping Cameron, how
Don Cameron himself had asked him
to accept the place. Don Cameron,
he said, he liked. He had no consience,
but he had courage. He thought he
inherited Pennsylvania from his
father, an old fox that could never
look a man in the face and do a brave
act.
Mr. Marshall concluded with a
vindication of his action in
opposing the candidates of a conven
tion of which he was a member. If it
was a mere private transaction be
tween himself and General Beaver it
might ho a d.fferent matter; but his
vote, the common franchise of Ameri
can citizens, the right to cast it was
given to him as a public trust, and
lie won Id be a coward if through
fear of criticism be forbore to cast it
according to his conscience. lie took
part in the convention, but he was not
bound to support a ticket nominated
by corruption. Fraud vitiaies every
thing it touches. They need nut talk
of the puuctillio of conventions, when
he saw delegates bought and sold like
sheep. He took the course his man
hood dictated, and asked all honest
men to do the same ; to carefully
weigh the arguments on every side
and then vote as their conscience dic
tates.
At the conclusion of Mr. Marshall's
speech the meeting broke up with loud
and repeated cheers for Stewart,
McMichael, Duff and Marshall.
Mr. Marshall, as the crowd was
dispersing, stepped to the front of the
platform, aud said: "I havn't much
law business on band just now, aud I
propose to put in every diy between
now and the 7th of November in
helping to clean the Cameron Machine
out"

The Hud and Won lilies
are never imitated or counterfeited.
This is especially true of a family med
icine, and it is positive proof that the
remedy imitated is of the highest value.
As soon as it had l>een tested and prov
ed by the whole world that Hop Hit
ters was the purest, best and most
valuable family medicine on earth,
many imitations sprung up and began
to steal the notices in which the press
and people of the country had express
ed the merits of 11. B , and in every
wav trying to induce suffering invalids
to use their stuff instead, expecting to
make money on the credit and irood
name of 11. B. Many others startled
nostrums put up in similar style to 11.
B , with variously devised names in
which the word "Hop" or "Hops"
were U:j>cd in a way to induce people
to believe they were the same as Hop
Bitters. All such pretended remedies
or cures, no matter what their style or
name is, arid especially those with the
word "Hop" or "Hops" in their name
or in any way connected with them or
their name, are imitations or counter
feits. Beware of them. T'Tuch none
of them. Use nothing but genuine
Hop Bitters, with a buuch or cluster of
green ilops on the white label. Trust
nothing else. Druggists and dealers
arc warned against dealing in iniita- .
tions or coiintiTfcits.
