THERE are eighteen trains arriving
and departing from Butler daily.
THE coal miners at Coaltown and
Ilarrisville have accepted the terms of
their employers and gone back to work.
IT look 3 now as if our Harmony
friends were having fair weather for
thuir Fair, which opened yesterday,
Tuesday.
TUB Legislature is still in session—
and no apportionment bills passed.
The people are thoroughly disgusted
with this business.
THE late frosts appear to have ex
tended over much of the Western
country, and from all reports the dam
age evervwhere is about the same as
here.
MR. CHARLES HASLETT, son of the
late Hon. William Haslett, and who
has been in business in "Old Virginia"
for some time back, is now here visit
ing his relatives.
MR. JOHN P. THOMPSON, who was
returned by the constable of Brady
township, for some supposed obstruc
tion to a road, was discharged by the
Court on Monday last.
MRS. SARAH TIMBLIN, who for some
time past has been living with a daugh
ter in Bradford, is back on a visit to
her friends here. She is stopping with
Miss Sarah McQuistion.
Two men are reported to have been
killed on the P. & W. railroad on last
Saturday. The accidents were in Al
legheny county and we have not learn
ed names or particulars.
THE Altoona Tribune believes that
if the members of the Legislature
would do their own thinking, instead
of following the beck and call of party
leaders, there would soon he an appor
tionment or an adjournment.
THE Ohio election is approaching
and much interest is manifested in the
result. From all we see and hear we
have no doubt of the election of the
ticket for Governor,
etc.
ON Monday last the Post Offices be
gau the issue of postal notes, by which
any sum under $5 can be sent, payable
to bearer, at any money order office in
the country at a charge of only three
cents.
THE Pittsburgh Dispatch is now
issued every day iu the week, Sunday
included. Its first Sunday edition ap
peared upon our streets last Snuday
morning and was generally sought
for, as the Dispatch generally is. It is
enterprising.
THE people of San Francisco have
united in paying a jast tribute to the
memory of Garfield. A monument to
his honor is to be erected in Golden
City Park. The corner stone was laid
oa Friday and over 60,000 persons—
more than one-half of the entire popu
lation of the city—witnessed the cere
monies.
13Y aa oversight we failed to notice
the musical concert given in the Court
House on Friday evening of last week,
under the auspices of the Germania
Cornet Band of this place. We regret
thi3, as the exercises were very enter
taining and, in some respects, of a new
character. The young visiting ladies
from abroad were well received and
made a favorable impression upon their
audience. The whole affair was a
success.
AMONCI the Dorsoy-Sun letters is one
from Gen Garfield alluding to "a side
arrangement," in which T. W. Phillips
ef New Castle, Pa., is referred to, and
another letter introducing and com
mending Mr. Phillips to the National
Committee. The italicised word has
evolved much sensational comment, of
course putting a corrupt construction,
directly and by innuendo, upon the af
fair. Tho "side arrangement" referred
1o was an offer by Air. Phillips, an ar
dent member of the Disciples church—
the same to which Gen. Garfield be
longed—and a warm personal friend of
the General, to visit and secure the co
operation of the brethren in Indiana,
where they were numerous. This is
the etorv of the italics, in brief Those
acquainted with Mr. Phillips will never
suspect him of engaging in any cor
rupt practice, and the sensation is
spoiled.
THE GREENVILLE She nan go Valley
Hewxjn speaking of theextetsi' n of the
S. & A. road to Butler, says as follows
of our county and the new road :
"The road ruus through a thrifty
agricultural and mining country, and
iu point of construction, ballasting, and
equipment, will rank with many roads
ot much greater pretensions. It is
ballasted with stone and gravel, and
laid with steel rails, and is equipped
with excellent rolling stock. The main
line from Greenville to Butler is fifty
eight miles in length, which, with the
branches, gives the company a mileage
of eighty-five miles. The extension to
Butler opens up a large amount of new
coal tcrritor}', and also gives the line a
direct connection, via the West Penn
road, with Pittsburgh and tho Fast,
which will greatly increase its freight
and passenger traffic."
Wonderfully Worried.
By an article in the Eagle last week
some person, or |>erhaps persons, up- j
pear wonderfully ill at ease in regard j
to the letters addressed by the members ;
of our Bar to Jud*e McJunkin, ex
pressing confidence in him and a>king
him, when the time eame, to be a can
didate for re-election. We are sorry for
these gentlemen—sorry that their
minds are so much worried and dis
turbed on the subject. The members
of a 3ar have the best opportunities of
knowing the litnessof lawyers for judi
cial stations, and therefore there is
great propriety in them giving an ex
pression on the subject when proper to
do so. We can't understand why it
should have annoyed some half dozen
gentlemen so much as it has. To the
first article in the Eagle, some three
weeks ago, we did not feel called upon
to take any notice. And we would
take no notice of the one of last week
were it not that it disputes a fact we
stated in the CITIZEN of the week be
fore We have refrained from any
allusion to or controversy with that
paper for some time past. This we
did in the hope that peace and union in
the Republican party of this county
might be restored and success in the
future assured. But it, on the other
hand, has continually shown a disposi
tion to keep up strife ; and all we have
to say on that point now is, that if
there is to be no peace, the responsibil
ity for its failure will be fixed upon the
right parties, and they alone will be the
sufferers in the end.
But our purpose now is correct the
statement in the article the Eagle per
mits itself to publish last week, as to
the number of the members of the Bar
who have signed the letters addressed
to Judge McJunkin. "We stated a
majority had done so. Thi9 was and
is correct. A majority has done so.
It is the writer in the Eagle that is
"mistaken" and not us. We have the
papers before us and find 38 names at.
tached thereto. The Eagle parades,
without authority, and verv much to
the annoyance of some of the members
of the Bar, 31 names who it says have
not signed. But eyen in this it is
again mistaken, for three of the very
names it publishes are on 4&e letter of
the Republican members addressed to
Judge McJunkin. Then again, it
gives the names of some who are
absent and had no opportunity to sign,
but who it is known will sign the let
ters for Judge McJunkin. Then again,
it gives the names of present candidates
and others who were not asked to sign,
through motives of delicacy or proprie
ty. Take all these things together, and
and others we know of, and its list will
be materially cut down. The member
ship, all told of the liar, is some sixty.
To the letters, that will in time be pre
sented to Judge McJunkin, we are
authorized to say there will be a num
ber added, that will make the whole
number about two-thirds of the Bar in
stead of a majority. And, to make this
matter short and end it, has it occurred
to either of those uneasy gentlemen
how many of the members would sign
a similar letter for them or for any
other ? It would be interesting just
now to know how many members of
the Bar would sign a letter adverse to
that which will be presented to Judge
McJunkin. But our only purpose at
present being, as we have said, to re
affirm the statement we had made, to
wit: that a majority of the members of
the Bar had already signed the letters
intended for Judge McJunkin, and
having established that, we have no
desire to say more, and think more
need not bo said at present. We have
a county ticket to elect this fall and it
is important there should be Republi
can success. Next year, as all can
clearly see now, there will be one of
the most exciting and important
elections ever held in this country.
Victory or defeat may depend much
upon the result of the elections this
year. Nothing, therefore, should un
necessarily disturb harmony or pro
mote discord, and wo hope, as far as
this county is concerned,that there may
be perfect peace.
FROM all parts of the county *we
have encouraging reports for the elec
tion of the Republican county ticket
this fall. Mr. Snyder, our candidate
for District Attorney is a popular and
worthy young man and will poll the
full vote of the party. Mr. Milliard,
candidate for County Surveyor, is also
a well qualified aud worthy man for
the office. Let the Republicans of the
county rouse up and see to the election
of these nominees of the party in No
vember next.
THE pleasures of the imagination are
only exceeded by its wonders. An
amusing illustration of this fact seems
to have happened in this place lately.
On the occasion of certain gentlemen
being consulted as to the next .Judge
ship they immediately imagined some
thing was said or intended for them in
the way of Congress. It is a case of
how our "wishes are father to the
thought," or how, when having our
minds engrossed with one idea we fre
quently make misapplication of other
ideas to that one. The case is some
thing akin to the one of mistaken
identity.
Repairing.
The members of the English Luther
an Church, of this place, meet upon
their burial ground lot, south cemetery,
on Saturday next, for the purpose of re
pairing the same. This is the second
meeting they have had for that purpose
and it is very desirable that there bo a
full attendance of all the members on
Saturday uext, as considerable work is
yet to do in order to put the burial
ground in proper shape.
WORK AT HARRISBl T R(i.
Cutting OiT the Ten Dollars a Day
—Wagner's Resolution
Adopted.
HABBTSBUBG, Sept. —There was
an old time aspect on the face of affairs
on the htll to-day. Under the inspira
tion of a cool anil bracing atmosphere, 1
Incoming the season of a month later
rather than a September morning, the
statesmen congregated about the legis
lative halls earlier than usual. The
statement in the Press of this morning
that a Democratic Senator would offer
a resolution cutting off pay created
considerable consternation. Neither
side knew how to treat the dilemma
which it presented.
As the matter was discussed its
gravity seemed to increase, and a few
minutes before calling the body to
order the Republicans went into caucus
formally. They continued to deliber
ate in secrecy until half an hour past
the time of meeting, and then, having
marked out a course, the business began.
THE REPUBLICAN I'OLK'V.
It soon became evident, however,
that the party was not of one mind.
The policy determined on was to sup
port the resolution if it was offered.
As soon as the journal was read, how
ever, Dr. Mcknight manifested his
dissent by moving to adjourn. There
were only three others to back him,
however, and the proposition failed,
with twenty-five votes in the negative.
Then Wagner got in his resolution. It
is in this language :
Resolved, That, if the House concur,
the Appropriation Committees of the
respective bodies be and they are here
by instructed to report the Appropria
tion bill for the pay of Senators and
members up to and including Septem
ber 10, 1883, and that said committees
be further instructed to report no other
appropriation bill until apportionment
bills shall have been passed.
Senator Gordon moved to amend so
that the resolution would provide for
pay from the beginning only in the
event of agreeing on bills. He said he
was opposed to pay and would not
himself accept compensation unless
bills were enacted and intimated that
the payment now would only afford'
means to protract the session.
MOVING TO STRIKE OUT.
George Handy Smith, in his usual
suave manner, moved to strike out the
words "until apportionment bills have
been passed." Sill moved to refer the
resolution to the Committee on Appro
priations, and Kennedy gave his
colleague, Mr. Gordon, a side slap by
challenging the propriety of the sug
gestion that membess receiving money
would protract the session needlessly.
George Handy Smith said the Republi
cans will not recede, pay or no pay.
Turning toward Gordon he continued :
Go tell them we are not weeping
willows, grown to adorn churchyards,
beautify cemetery lots, or staud weep,
ing over new-made graves. We are
made of sterner stuff. We are trees of
the forest, raised to resist the ravages
of the tempest and the storm. Like
the stubborn and sturdy oak that raises
his majestic head aboyo the rest, tower
ing in his strength, aye, and eyen defies
the lightning, we will remain here and
defy the power that sits in the execu
tive building. I say this with all due
respect to the Senator from the Third
District, whom I consider the weeping
willow of the Senate."
TFLE EMPLOYEES' SALARIES.
Hughes proposed to amend at once
to provide for the employees and then
pass the resolution as the only step in
the direction of solving the problem.
Laird was opposed to any appropria
tion, because no work had been clone.
He animadverted on the wickod clamor
cf newspapers regard in? the $lO a day.
A till withdrew the motion to refer to
committee. Wallace stated in a sort
of interrogatory way his opinion that
the resolution meant that after Septem
ber 10 there should be no pay, but
there was no time fixed for the com
mittee to report the bill. Biddis be
lieved that those who did the work up
to the present time should be paid, and
Patton made a semi-savage and a half
humorous speech of some length. He
said :
I do not propose to vote for any such
buncombe or poppycock resolutions.
No member of the Administration, or
its officers or attaches, shall say that I
shall not have that which belongs to
me. Upon what meat]do these Cesarian
legislators feed that they should lord
over me? I know it has been told me
that the Governor will veto any appro
priation bill passed if there are no ap
portionment bills made. I kno*7 my
rights and I intend to maintain them.
Let those who can afford it take no
pay, but do not let them say to others
you shall have no pay. God knows I
don't want this session to continue. I
huve been in favor of adjournment be
cause I feel that the apportionments
cannot be made. I have tried to soften
the Republican hearts, but they remain
adamantine. They arc slubborn, stiff
necked and rebellious. Are we to re
main here until December, 18H4, and
then go home without any pay ?
The amendment of Senator Smith
having been withdrawn, Gordon's was
defeated by the following vote :
YEAS—Messrs. Gordon, Laird, Shear
er and Vandegrift. Total, t.
NAYS—Messrs. Arnholt, Aull, Bid
dis, Boggs, Cove, Davics, Greer, Har
lan, Hart, Ilerr, Hess, Hughes, Humes,
Keefer, Kennedy, King, Lint/., Mc-
Crackon, McK night, McNeill, Nelson,
Patton, Reyburn, Smiley, Smith,
Stehman, Sutton, Upperman, Wagner,
Wallace, Watres and Mylin, president
pro teru. Total, 152.
The question being on Senator Wag
ner's resolution it was agreed to by the
following vote:
YEAS—Messrs. Arnholt, Aull, Bid
dis, Boggs, Coxe, Da vies, Greer, Har
lan, Hart, Ilerr, Hess, Hughes, Humes,
Keefer, Kennedy. King, Lantz, Mc-
Cracken, McNeill, Nelson, Patton,
Reyburn, Shearer, Smiley, Smith,
Stehman, Sutton, Upperman, Vande
grift, Wagner, Wallace and Watres;
total, thirty-two.
NAYS—Messrs. McKnight and My
lin, president pro tem ; total, two.
THE DAY IN THE IIOVSE.
HARRISBURO, Sept. s.—The ses
sion of the House was no less interest
ing and it was much more noisy. Mr.
Bullitt introduced a concurrent resolu
tion providing for adjournment without
day on Wednesday, September, 12,
anil, after Mack in bad objected to its
consideration, the Chair ruled that it
must go over a day, unless by the sus
pension of. tho rules its consideration
was made possible. Mackin objected
again and Crawford said it might as
well be disposed of to day as to-mor
row, and asked consent.
Everybody said go on, and Bullitt
s K»ko at length in faver of his proposi
tion, saying there was no hope of ap
portionment.
"I am getting the worst end of this
thing," he added with a smile. "I am
paying ray own expeLses and not get
ting a cent"—a reference to his early
pledge to take no pay that was enjoyed
by the House. Collins, of Sullivan,
opposed the resolution as he would
"oppose any proposition that looked to
the evasion of his constitutional duty.
The roll call followed with 103 yeas.
So the matter was disposed of in form
by sending it to the Ways and Means
Committee.
Mr. Merry introduced an anti-pay
apportionment resolution similar to
Gordon's, in the Senate, Mackin ob
jected, and Merry moved that the rules
be suspended for the purpose of consid
ering the resolution. In this he failed;
<JS Democratic yeas to f>B Republican
uays. The House adjourned. There
was great confusion over the count, the
Speaker at one time declaring that two
thirds had voted for the motion, and
then repeating his previous decision
that the resolution had failed.
SUMMONING THE ABSENTEES.
HARRISBURG, Sept. s —The extra
session of the Legislature is evidently
reaching a climax. To-day Speaker
Faunce anuounced in the House that
hereafter, after each roll call the names
of absentees and dodgers would be read
out from the clerk's desk. Senator
Cooper returned from Bedford this
afternoon aud has given a general order
for stiffening the lines 011 the Republi
can side. He assembled a few leading
Senators and members in the Senate
Committee room, No. 3, to-night, where
they remained until a late hour in con
sultation.
The Chairman doubts the wisdom of
the resolution passed in the Senate this
morning and will make an effort,
through the medium of party discipline,
to defeat it in the House to-morrow.
The policy will be to refer it to a com
mittee where it may be kept. Failing
in that, the next move will be to get it
amended, so that the process of strangu
lation may be made possible in confer
ence committee.
The Republicans have to night sent
despatches to all absentees, urging
them to return in time for to-morrow's
session The Democrats have taken
similar measures to secure a full attend
ance of their friends, and the outlook is
for the liveliest session to-morrow.
When the conference dissolved to-night
it was with the understanding that
another one, embracing a more general
party representation, will be held in
the morning.
THE DEMOCRATS REFUSE TO VOTE
Harrisburu. Sept. C.—The Repub
lican Senators made a strong effort to
day to hsve the Wagner resolutiou re
considered in order that they might
strike out the final clause which pro
vides that no further appropriation
should be made after September 10
until the apportionment bills were pass
ed. The Democrats blocked the game
by refusing to answer to their names
when the roll was called, and thus
broke the quorum. The session was
rather lively. The motion to reconsid
er was mado by Stchmau. Wallace
said this seemed a strange motion, be
cause the resolution of yesterday had
received almost the unauimous support
of the Senate, and he could see no
reason for a change of front now.
Davies said the resolution was not
clear enough and it was in such shape
as to be readily misunderstood and
misinterpreted. From remarks which
had been made yesterday the purpose
of the resolution was not fully stated
or understood. A little thought show
ed it to be clearly another attempt to
coerce the Legislature into passing ap
portionment bills It had been author
itatively stated yesterday on the lloor
of the Senate that should no apportion
ment bills be passed there would be no
pay for this extra session. He was
unwilling to iudorise such methods of
coercion. The purpose of amending
the resolution, he continued, was to
make the Republican position clear,
decisive and strong to make no appro
priation at all after September 10,
whether bills were passed or not. The
resolution, aa passed yesterday, was
simply an instrument placed in the
hands of the Executive to beat out our
brains. McKnigbt said that the reso
lution was a violation of the Constiiu
tion in spirit if not in letter and there
fore he bad voted against It. When
the vote was finally reached the Demo
crats, pursuing the plan laid out in the
caucus which they held before the ses
sion opened, sat silent in their scats.
There were but twenty-one Republi
cans present—less than a quorum—
and there was nothing left but to end
the session. The Senate adjourned
until Monday.
The House was in session for oujy a
short time. Senator Wagner'* resolu
tion was not taken up. Merrey, of
Lock Haven, attempted to have his
resolution for final adjournment on the
10th inst taken up, but failed to secure
the requisite majority to suspend the
rules. The House adjourned until 9
o'clock to-morrow morning.
Formally Opened,
The Connecting Link, or extension
to Butler of the Sbenango if, Allegheny
Railroad, was formally opened on the
4th inst., by the officials of the same
and many invited citizens of this and
other places. With these also came
some of the principal officials of the
Pennsylvania Central Road. Mr. B.
K Jamison, of Philadelphia, who has
invested largely in the new road, was
also present; Mr. Thomas 11. Wells,
I and Messrs. IJonnell and Wick, of
i Voungstown, Ohio; Judge Mellon, of
Pittsburgh; Judge McDermitt, of
j Mercer, and other prominent citizens
! of M< rcer county were among thenuui-
I ber. The intention of our citizens,
was to give them a titling public re
ception, but occasion required them to
leave earlier in the evening than was
anticipated. With others of our citi
zens we regretted that their short stay
prevented many from meeting them at
i the "festive board," as was desired to
! do. They left in the early evening
' well pleased with the new road, with
our county and with all they had seen

Frosts.
There is bad news. The frosts 011
Saturday and Sunday nights have
seriously injured the corn and buck
wheat crops in this county, and, we
believe, generally in this part of the
State. At this writing, Monday, we
have bad reports of the effects of the
frosts from nearly every part of this
county. The weather for the past few
days has been quite cool and the nights
decidedly cold. Overcoats have been
seen in use. We regret the injury to
our great staple, buckwheat, but still
hope enough is spared to feed our peo
ple with the necessary "cakes." Some
garden vegetables are also reported
much damaged by the late frosts.

JOHN BICKEL,
BOOT and SHOE MAN
OF BUTLER
Has been East, the only Shoe Merchant in Butler that went East this Fall. His goods are now arriving daily, and
as usual, his Fall trade has opened with a
H RANI) RUS H.
The people of Butler county have been imposed on long enough with high prices, and with few exceptions thej are
going to the
CHEAP BOOT and SHOE HOUSE
to buy their Fall goods, but this is not enough I want them all to come, I have the goods and
THEY MUST HE SOLD.
My goods were all bought direct from the manufacturer for cash by an experienced buyer and I intend to sell them at such
wmm iffl HB
That will moke my customers all happy and my competitors go mad with rage. They want mo to maintain high
prices so we can all make
BIG MONEY,
But I tell them, NO, I can afford to sell goods on a VERY S3IALL MAROI3 because I am selling more
goods than anv other Shoe House in Butler county. So lam going to
CUT THE PRICES
And favor the people and do the trade. My Stock of Boots, Shoes and Rubbers is by far the largest that was ever
brought to Butler in one season, and I want to impress on the minds of the people that I will not be
~cjnarx>DES£t.soxL.3>
But to the contrary will guarantee to save them from 15 to 25 per cent, on their J-Joots aild Shoes an d give
them goods that will prove just as recommended. All I ask is to give me a call and it will be no trouble for me
to convince you that ii is
THE CHEAPEST PLACE IN BUTLER
