THE regular train from Petrolia and

until the Independent Republican
meeting is over, in order to return all
coming to hear Benator Mitchell and

THB Pittsburgh Commercial Oa
xeite would have saved itself some
credit, and done but a simple act of
justice, by correcting its error as to
tbe legal residence of Col. John M.
Sullivan, after tbe same had been
brought to its attention.
ABOUT all the persons who are speak
ing for the bosses in this State are the
offlce holders—earning their money as
they are commanded to do. The people
are quiet and looking on, and in our
opinion there will be a great deal of
quiet voting done on next Tuesday
week.
THB Stalwarts are after Senator
Lee, in tbe Venango district, but tbey
can't defeat bim. Tbey are also inter
fering to prevent tbe nomination of
Frank Agnew, a son of Judge Agnew,
in tbe Beaver State Senate district,
which interference it is hoped will not
succeed.
Wi wish to remark softly to the ex
cited and jubilant Democracy that
tbey are laboring under a misappre
hension. It is not the Republican
party that is going to pieces, but the
machine. The party itself is merely
getting the track clear for 1884. N.
Y. Tribune.
Very AnaIIM I NK.
One of the most amusing features of
the campaign now in progress is the
attempt made by the dependents of
Cameron to convince the people that
tbey are "not Cameron men." In some
instances we have noticed the speakers
at meetiegs even took pains to explain
"tbey were not Cameron men." The
load of Cameron would look, to thoee
not understanding this dodye, as be
coming too heavy ; but in fact it is but
a dodge and is understood by Cameron
and the whole of them. He will per
mit his henchmen to'abuse and repu
diate him as much as they please, but
he is carrying on his campaign with
his money ail the same, and if he suc
ceeds he will claim it as kin triumph,
all the same. And the election would
scarcely be over until he would begin
to plan and plot on the next candidate
for President. This will be against
Blaine. If he can carry the Slate now
he will think be can carry it next year
•od next, against Blaine. This is a
part of what is in this preseut election.
But he will not succeed this time, and
that will end bia power, forever. I
SEVERAL matters that appear this
week were intended for last week's
issue, bat owing to other urgent
| matters they had to go over to this
week.
A FRIEND who has looked over the
Eagle, of this place, says there are at
least fifteen misstatements in its last
issue relative to the late County Com*
mittee meeting.
THE great mass of the Republicans
of this county are much gratified to
see the favor with which the name
of Col. Johu. M. Sullivan is received
as a candidate for the State Senate
in the Allegheny city district. Mr.
Sullivan has been opposed to the
bossism of Don Cameron and all his
ways and methods for years past,
and in no sense has ever sunk his
manhood by yielding to his dicta
tion. On the other hand McNiell
the Stalwart candidate, and the oppo
nent of Mr. Sullivan, is and has
been one of the veriest tools for Don
Cameron and bis ring that there is
in the State. Hence the Republi
cans of Allegheny city seem to be de
termined to leave said McNeill at
home and give him no further op
portunity to vote for keeping Came
ron in the United States Senate.
THE Eagle of last week is full of
misrepresentations relating to the ac
tion of the County Committee. But
it conyicts itself and admits the
whole ground when admitting that
"on assembling it is possible that
there were only thirty-Jour members
of the Committee present." And that
is all there were present "on assem
bling" and when "the vote was taken
on the resolution asking Mr. Walker
to resign." We have the names as
taken down when the vote was taken
on said resolution, showing 17 for and
17 against, being the thirty-four votes
present, and consequently the resolu
tion being lost and Mr. Walker not
voted out. Then a motion was made
to adjourn, and as soon as made tbe
members of the Committee generally
sprang to their feet and left the room.
The re-assembling of a portion
of them afterwards, and making
Dr, Rumberger a chairman, was
simply irregular, if not a farce,
and he has no rights as such that the
Republicans of this county need re
spect. But we do not know but what
the effect of his so called appointment
will be well enough, as it now gives
each side of tbe party on the State
ticket an opportunity to be heard
through distinctive meetings of their
own, and each side can now have its
own meetings and the Republican
people can attend both or either, as
they choose, and bear, read and de
cided which fcjtate ticket they should
aupport on the 7th of November
coming.
Republican Meeting*,
The Republicans of Cherry twp.,
will hold a meeting at the Sproul
(Pipeatem) school house, on Friday
evening of this week, October 27th,
1882. Clarence Walker, Esq., will
address the meeting. All are invited.
o Nomination Yet.
The Republican Congressional Con
ferees for this district re-assembled at
Corry on Tuesday of last week, and con
tinued in session until Friday latt,
without effecting a nomination. A re.
cess was then taken until Tuesday of
thip week, yesterday, and we presume
the conference is now again in session.
A nomination will, we think, be made
to day. Longer time cannot be taken,
as the election is at hand, and the can
didate, whoever he may be, will be
pressed for time to make the necessary
tour of the district. Our people justify
and sustain our candidate in holding
out for the right of this county to the
present nomination, and from what we
learn we have reason to believe this
right is fin illy to be recognized. The
district is decidedly Republican and
must not be lost. We expect to give
the nominee an earnest support, and
every effort should be put forth for his
election. The next Congress may be
so close that one vote may save the
control to the Republicans.
Death ot Martin Retber, Sr.
The news of the death of Martin
Reiber, Sr., of this place, last Satur
day, was unexpected and much regret
ted. While it was generally known
that he was ill, yet but few were
prepared for the sudden and sad news
of his death, as be was always noted
for his excellent health. It is, how
ever, but another notice, that "in the
midst of life we are in death."
Mr. Reiber was one of our best
citizens Coming to this place, more
than forty years ago, he has ever
been one of our enterprising and useful
merchants. He was an honest and hon
orable man, liberal to all charitable
and religious purposes. He leaves be
hind a widow and large family to
mourn his great loss and who have
the sympathy of this entire communi
ty. His remains were buried yester
day in the Lutheran burial ground
and followed to the grave by a large
number of people, after which there
were services in the English Lutheran
Church of this place. He was in the
71st year of his age.
EDITORS ClTlZEN:—Brother Ratipan
of the Millerstown Herald says that
one of the County Commissioners
said that the Republican pa-ty was as
corrupt as hell. Ratigan it? mistaken,
for the Commissioner said that there
were men in the Republican party
that were as corrupt as hell, and lie be
lieves just what he said, and he also
believes that there are men in the
Democratic party in the same condi
tion and that one of them lives over
in Millerstown. SENEX.

How that Ticket, mid »ll the
Oilier Tickets. Should be
Voted at the Coming
Election.
A question had arisen as to the
manner people should vote the Con
gressman-at-Large ticket. That is,
whether the candidates for that office
should be printed and voted on the
ticket headed 'State," or on the
ticket printed and headed ' County."
We had no doubt about the matter
in our mind, believing it was more of
a county office than a State one.
But to settle the matter throughout
the whole State, and that no party
might have or take any advantage in
the matter, the Chairmen of the differ
ent State Committees, representing the
four different State tickets now before
the people, met on the 14th inst, and
agreed that at the coming election the
name of the candidate for Congress
man-ai-Large shall be printed on the
"County" ticket.
Therefore the tickets in this county
will be printed in that way. There
are three parts to the ticket to be
voted for this year, and the law re
quires them to be voted separately :
to wit, the "Judiciary" candidates on
one ticket; the "State" candidates on
another, and the "County" candidates
on another.
The whole ticket therefore will read
as follows :
JUDICIARY.
JUDGE OF THE SUPREME COURT,
(Here the name of the candidate. I
STATE.
FOR ; GOVERNOR,
(Here name.)
LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR,
(Here name.)

COUNTY.
CONG r. ESS M AN -at» Large,

CONGRESS.
(Here name of district candidate.)
ASSEMBLY.
(Here two names.)
JURY COMMISSIONER.
(Here name.)
Tbe above is tbe division of the
tickets required by the Act of March
30, 1866. So that, while the above
tickets may all be printed on one slip,
vet the voter must separate them into
three parts when voting.
We leave the names of the candi
dates for the different offices blank, the
above being intended merely as a
guide to the form in which a whole
ticket must be voted. As there are
two Republican candidates for the of
fice of Judge of the Supreme Court,
and two Republican State tickets, for
Governor, Lieutenant Governor and
Secretary of Internal Affairs, there
doubtless will be tickets at all the polls
of each kind, some with the names of
the Independent Republican candi
dates for Judge, Governor, etc., there
on, and some with tbe so called Regu
lar candidates for the same offices
thereon.
On both such Republican tickets,
however, the name 3 of the Republican
candidates for the Assembly in this
county, Messrs. Braham and Donly,
and the name of the Republican candi
date for Jury Commissioner, Robert
McClung, Esq., will appear, there
not being two Republican tickets for
those office?.

MESSRS. EDITORS: Dear Sir:—l
deem it but justice and a duty I owe
to the public, when we have & man put
in nomination, for the suffrage of the
people and especially for an office of
important trust, and when the people
want to know who is just the best man
to be entrusted with the affairs of the
State; one in whom they can place im
plicit confidence, and know that their
interests will be carefully and honora
bly looked after ; one that will not dis
grace his constituents, nor cause the
hot blush of shame to suffuse their
cheeks by his libertinism, nor liquors,
is my reason for setting forth the sub
joined sketch of the life and family
history (which I made my business to
look up) of the subject of this article,
Ephraim Ogden, of Middlesex town
ship, Butler county, Pa , candidate for
Congress in the 2Gth district, on the
Prohibition, Home Protection party
ticket.
Of bis ancestry, native place and
early life, he has no cause to be
ashamed. Like many good and great
men he was born and raised on a farm,
owned by bis father, aud worked on it
until about the age of 18 years. This
was in Cumberland county, in the
southern part of New Jersey, near
Bridgeton, the county seat. At this
age he entered tbe,Bridgeton Academy,
to pursue his studies, from the first
having the gospel ministry in view. In
reference to his early life and the
different places at which he prosecuted
his studies, bis graduation, and his
pastoral life since, I cannot do better
than quote you from "The Historical
Sketch of the Old Stone Church of
Fairfield, N J," as given by the Rev
Ephraim Whitaker, I). I)., at the Bi
centennial celebration of that old stone
church in September 1880, and runs
thus : "Ogden was and is yet, a very
common name in tho southern part of
New Jersey, and I may be permitted
to say, it is a name borne by many
persons of eminence and who were dis
tinguished for great excellence of char
acter." In reference to these Ogdens,
I)r. Whitaker further remarks, "Anoth
er of these good Ogdens, is Ephraim,
the best boy in Sayre's Neck fifty years
ago. He is the grandson of Jason and
the son of that Jason who was born
June 26th, 1777 He was born a
member of this church, June 9th, 1818,
baptized in bis infancy by his pastor,
Rev. Ethan Osborn and admitted to
full communion with sixty others. In
August, 1836, he prepared for college
with Levi F. Claflin, in Bridgeton, and
tho Itev. Dr. John W Scott, in Steuben
ville, Ohio. He graduated at Jefferson
college in 1844, pursued the full
course in the Western Theological
Seminary WAS licensed by the Presby-1
tery of Steubenville in April, 1847;
ordained by the Presbytery of AUegb
env in November, 1848, and at the
same time installed pastor of the
churches of Middlesex and Westminster.
Ten years later he was released from
the care of Westminster; but he is
now the faithful bishop of Middlesex,
as he has been for nearly thirty-two
years." He further adds, "He has
often been chosen by his brethern in
the ministry for important service, and
has represented his Pre-bytery in
several general assemblies, so says
this historian, and I might add as evi
dence of the eminence and high stand
ing of some of his near relatives, that
an uncle, by his mother's side, the Hon
Ephraim Batenian, M. D., after whom
he was called, was not only an eminent
physician, but had the honor of repre
senting his SUte in the State Legisla
ture, then in the Senate as speaker,
afterward he was a member of the
National Congress for eight years, and
after that to the U. S. Senate. So you
see that Congressional honors pertain
to the "Ogden," and that he has a
perfect right to aspire thereto.
1 might, further add; in any great
reform he has ever been among the
first; nor ever awaited its becoming
popular, before extending aid ; right;
alwavs determining his action.
Fellow citizens, will vou not feel
that your interests are safe in the hands
of such a man as this? And he can
be elected if you will only vote for him.
Respectfully your fellow citizen,
J AS. \V. OUR.
A Family Re-Union.
EDITORS CITIZEN: Dear Sirs:—
Many of the friends and acquaintances
of Mr. Mark McCandless and wife, old
and hone3tcitizenß of Cherry township,
this county, will be glad to hear of a
pleasant family re-union which was
held at their residence on Oct. 4th inst.
The arrangements were made to sur
prise the old people, and it was quite
successful in this as in all other par
ticulars. On Wednesday, 4th iust.,
the married children began to arrive,
bringing with them their families, and
by 10 o'clock A. M. the old homestead
was more lively than it has been for
many a day. All the children were
present except Mrs. Blaine. Some of
the neighbors bad been apprised and
were present to enjoy the day. While
the busy matrons spread a table under
the shade trees the company enjoyed
themselves in various ways ; the older
people relating or hearing reminiscences
of the early dars and the children and
youth at sport best suited to their tast«.
At noon 55 persons were abundantly
supplied with that which supports life,
which all seemed to enjoy. The day
was perfect and will long be remem
bered by all who were privileged to
participate in its enjoyment. The old
people, Mr. and Mrs. McCandless,
seemed to renew their youth. They
are enjoying good health considering
their advanced age. They were mar
ried February 1827. B.
A SPECIMEN CASE.
A Government Clerk Tells
how lie IIHN been Asuesu
ed by Iltibbell and
Cooper.
The following letter appeared in the
Philadelphia Press a few days ago
under date of Washington, D. C.
October 7, 1882 :
To the Editor of the Press.
DEAR SIR: —As a regular reader of
your very valuable paper I take the
pleasure in noting the fact that the
Press is justly regarded the very
foremost, most reliable and best of all
the great dailies received aod read
here. Your truly Republican position
in advocacy of honest methods, honest
government, open handed, fair and
square dealing toward friend and foe
cannot be too highly commended, and
should be more generally immitated
bv journalists. Now I am in a deep
study as to my duty, I aiu a Repub
ican in every fiiber of my being, but I
do not approve of the extraordinary
use of money for the purpose of carry
ing elections; i. e., I am opposed to
buying voters, leaders, or buying
whisky or beer to influence them.
I have already received two letters
from Chairman Cooper asking me for
thirty-two dollars' voluntary (?) con
taibution, (the second being marked in
red ink No- 2,) one from Chairman
Hubbell for like amount, and one from
Mr. Q. W. Curtis cautioning mo
agaiust such payment. I have a large
family—six children, an invalid wife
and both our mothers—to support, and
I do not like to confess to a near friend
how poor and straightened I am
financially at this time. I cannot pay
this amount without entailing much
distress upon myself and family, and
my conscience tells me that the pay
ment is wrong —that I ought to trust
God and do right, and openly decline
to make payment, frankly stating my
reasons and warning the leaders
agaist this suicidal policy. But by so
doing I will probably lose my posi
tion and bring myself and family to
worse suffering, unless God should in
his mercy somehow, the which I do
not now see, help me out of it. I feel
inclined to trust God and let eonse
qeuences take care of themselves.
What would you advise me to do ?
I have given myself until the 15th
inst to deliberate.
Commenting on this letter the edi
tor of the Pre?B says :
It is right for citizens who can af
ford it to contribute toward the neces
sary and legitimate expenses of their
party. It is not right that the party
in poorer or their Committees should
assess the Government employees.
Mr. Curtis assumes that it is unlaw
ful. We question the soundness of
this conclusion ; but !f it is not unlaw
ful it ought to be Tho spectacle of
fered by Hubbell's committee passing
around the hat among underpaid
Government clerks, with his circular
No. 1 and bis red ink No 2, is a burn
ing disgrace, and we fear it will cost
the Republican party thousands of
votes.

SWOUDS ARE CROSSED.
By Senator Stewart and Judge
Jettsiii* at Montrose.
Correspondence of Philadelphia Press
One of the largest political meetings i
ever held in Susquehanna county took
place at Montrose this evening. Sena- j
ator Stewart came here at the re- j
quest of a petition presented to the
Independent Committee at Philadel
phia, signed by over one hundred In
dependent Republicans of Montrose.
Hon. C. 11. Ellis presided. The
Hon. Galusha A. Grow was named as
one of the Vice Presidens amid great
applause. E. K. Martin, Esq., of
Lancaster, opened the ball, speaking
for one hour on the issues of the cam
paign. His speech was argumentive
and received the closest attention of
the audience, being frequently inter
rupted by applause.
He was followed by Senator John
Stewart. In the course of Senator
Stewart's speech he made the follow
ing request :
"I would like your representatives
to the State Convention, if they are
in this audience, to explain it they cau
how they reconcile their acceptance of
their Harrisburg platform, which con
demns the existing abuses, with their
support of the nominees of that con
vention who repudiate that platform.
Whereupon Judge Jessup arose and
said that having been a delegate t'>
that convention, he would, at the
proper time, make the explanation.
Mr. Stewart at once offered to yield
the floor to Judge Jessup, and invited
him to the stand with the understand
ing that be was to rejoin first repeat
ing in clear and succinct terms the
propsition to be discussed. Judge
Jessup arose amid the cheers of the
audience and advanced to the plat
form, and in a speech of fifteen min*
utes length told the audience how he
had protested against Mr. Wolfe's
nomination at Harrisburg and suc
ceeded in getting Senator Cameron to
accept Mr. Davies as a representative
Independent. Judge Jessup denounc
the evils of bo3sism and argued that
reform could be inaugurated within the
party lines.
STEWART'S REJOINDER
Senator Stewart then arose amid
cheers from the audience and in a
scattering speech of three quarters of
an hour arraigned the bosses in one of
the most remarkable forensic displays
that ever took place in Northern Penn
sylvania. The audience hung in
breathless surprise upon every word
that fell from the brilliant Senator's
lips, cheering to the echo his costic
and terrible blows as they fell thick
and fast. He asserted that Judge
Jessup had not meet the issue, and
that it would be necessary for his ex
planation to be explained by a subse
quent speech. He said that the plat
form was in itself a pledge and prom
ise to the people that the moral and
political force of the party should be
directed to the overthrow of these
abuses, and the fact remained that the
campaign derived its vigor and
strength from the exercise of the
abuses and the political practices which
the platform condemned; that Judge
Jessup and his audiance, as well as the
candidates on the ticket, knevy that
the assessments which were con
demned in the platform were remorse
lessly collected from every office holder
in the land, and were being expended
to secure the election of the candi
dates who had been nominated by
that convention, and were receiving
the support of Judge Jessup and other
gentlemen who framed that platform,
and who pledged the faith of the party
to its honest observance; that while
Judge Jessup might acquit himself by
publicly assuring this audience that he
personally disapproved of the manner
in which this campaign was being
conducted, his candidate for governor,
concerned only about his own political
success was willing to take advantage
4>f this false pretense, and so long as
the money was expended iu the way
it would do the most good for him as a
candidate, he uttered no protest or ap
proval.
BEAVER AND CAMERON.
Mr. Stewart charged that there was
an alliance between General Beaver
and Mr. Cameron. He asserted that
at Chicago Mr. Cameron directed Gen
eral Beaver to decline the nomination
for the Vice Presidency upon the as
surance that he should be made the
candidate for Governor in the cam
paign of 1882. He said that this al
liance had been cemented aud strength
ened iu the Senatorial struggle at
Harrisburg, when Beaver was made
Mr. Cameron's candidate. M p . Stew
art went into details of the struggle at
Harrisburg, and produced the original
papers which he had submitted to
General Beaver iu connection there
with, and said that General Beaver
might have been made the United
States Senator if had been willing to
stand upon his individual merits and
be independent of the Cameron influ
ence and support, and that it was un
willingness to separate himself from his
Cameron alliance that defeated his as
pirations. These original papers he
offered to place into Judge Jossup's
hands tor examination by General
Beaver if he so desired. The witness
es to the transaction he said were
Senators Lee, Thomas and Kauft'man,
all of whom could verify what he said.
In a burst of eloquence he implored
Judge Jesup, he implord the audience
to rise to the occasion and strike down
the infamous rule of these bosses
who were destroying every vestage of
the party's manhood and honor.
A REM ARK A ULE SCENE.
Senator Stewart then took his seat
amid the wildest cheers of the audience,
but the most remarkable scene was yet
to follow. The chairman arose aud dis
missed the audience, but they refused
to leave the hall, calling loudly and
wildly for Judge Jessup to make the
explanation that Senator Stewart had
demanded. The Judge arose once
more and in argument proclaimed his
independence and denounced Came
ron's methods. Stewart stopped, and
replied that that was not the question.
Finally, Stewart granted Judge Jos
sup's independence, but asked why
he did not get General Beaver to deny
the bosses* and assert his manhood ?
"Jessup pleads for himself; I demand
him to plead for Beaver." At times
the excitement raa so high that the
ladies in the gallery waved their
handkerchiefs as the Independent Sen
ator spoke.
