HI TLER CITIZEN i JOHN H. I W. C. NEGLEY. PROP'RS, Entered at the POKI office at Butler as xerond-rlcxs* matter. i WEDNESDAY, MARCH. 12, 'B4. Obey the Law. When the matter of granting licens. es to keep public houses was before the Court last week, a strict observance of the law was required by the Court No law is more frequently violated than the license law. Certain forms are required in making the applications •nd certaiu requisites required on the part of tli6 applicant. It these iail in any particular It ia the duty of the Court to refuse the license. Theu, often, after ft license has been granted, its terms are not complied with and if a renewal is petitioned for and it is made appear to the Court that the bouse licensed has not been conducted according to the law the Conrt, in duty bound, is compelled to refuse a re newal. The interests of society as well as the law require this. And both require the Court to see to it that our license laws arc not violated. While those laws are up°a the statute books let them be strictly observed. And i f strictly observed there would be far less drunkenness, and far less disorders in community than there are. The action of the Court is very generally ap proved in this matter. Wherever it was made to appear that the laws had sot been adhered tc, in respect to the house or the application to keep one, or the character of the applicant was not such as the law says it must be, in all such cases it is the plain and sworn duty of the Court to refuse a license. The Committee and the Press. The action of the Republican Co. Committee last week relative to the two Republican papers of this place, will be generally approved by the Re publicans of the county. From the stand point the Committee looked at this matter its action is not strange. And from the stajd point we look at it the cenmre is not strange to us. We take our full share, in all due respect to the Committee, knowing as we do the object sought to be obtained, harmony in the party. We can best illustrate our feelings and opinion in the matter by telling of a certain man who once lived in: this place, a worthy citizen, long deceased. lie bad a habit that was peculiar. When be wanted to cen sure or complain of a fellow-townsman he never wont directly at him, or "for bim" as the present saying is, but on the contrary, if he saw him in company with another man with whom he was on good terras, or had no complaint against, he would approach the two and commence reproviDg the one with whom be was on good terms, and thus hit the other fellow, who he didn't like, over the shoulders of the one he did like. This was always very adroitly and successfully done and the man in tended soon "took the bint." In this manner, we think, the Committee last week intended its action to be under stood, and so we are content, if the other fellow is. National Delegate. By tho proceedings of our County Committee last week, it will be seen that the Republicans of this county will vote direct for a delegate to the National Convention at the primary ordered for April 5. This was thought a better way than the election of Con ferees. The Convention meeting on April T. will appoint the said Con ferees to meet with the counties of Crawford and Mncer, at which meet ing will be determined the two dele gate to which this Congressional dis trict is entitled. This conferee meet ing, as the Crawford Journal suggests, can be held on April 10 or 11, in time to certify ibe result to the succssaful candidates and thus save any interfer ence in the matter at the State Con vention. Mercer, we presume, will ar range to join in this matter. The State Convention, if all the districts in Slate act similar to this one, will thus have the simple duty of naming only the six National delegates at large to which this Stute is entitled this year in the National Convention. Four of said six are to represent the two United States Senators in Congress and the other two will represent the Congress man-at-Large that the State has to elect this Fall. THE Republicans of Armstrong county at their County Committee meeting last week, conceded to Butler county the Senatorial delegate to the comnig State Convention. This was right and proper from the fact that last year this county conceded tho same to Armstrong. The said Senatorial dele gate will therefore be elected by the Re publicans of this county at the coming primary of April 5, on the same ticket that the two Representative, or dis tinct county delegates to the State Con vention are elected at that time, and no conference will be necessary in that matter this year. The two Represen tative delegates will represent the county and the Senatorial one the dis trict. HON. SAMIKI, GRIFFITH, of Mercer, has withdrawn from the contest for nomination for the Judgeship in that county, and states as a reason that he does not desire to pass through a can. vass of misrepresentations and abuse, such as has !>*• n instituted he says in that county, and *uph, he might have added, as ha* v ,n .j instituted in other OOUOtICS. THE proceedings of the Allegheny County Republican Committee, that met in Pittsburgh last Saturday, appear to seek to combine both branches of the National rule for election of delegates to the National Convention. First, the people are given the right to send delegates to a County Convention in each Congressional district of that county, 22nd and 23rd districts, which is all right. But instead of allowing the township, borough and ward delt gates, thus elected, to name the two delegates to the National Convention, according to first branch of the National rule providing for district representa tion, they refer that right to the Stale delegates n»med by each of said dis trict conventions, thus recognizing the second branch of the National rule. Why not have allowed the people, through their direct delegates in each district convention, to have named the National delegates, as well as the State ones ? However, if the people under stand the matter and make sure of whom their delegates choose as their State delegates, these State delegates cannot well ignore the popular will in the selection of the National delegates to the Ch-'cago Convention to nominate the Presidential candidate. Starting a "Boom." It is becoming very fashionable to "boom" candidates. For this purpose the telegraph is the instrument most generally used. Accounts of what never happened in Committees or else where at home are telegraphed to the city dailies, giving glowing accounts of this or that man's strength and bow the people are crying for him to be a candidate, and bow be is a candidate, and bow his campaign is "booming," and at the same time there is truly nothing of it, and no such things ever happened. We are led to say this from the ac. counts sent from this place to the Pitts burgh Com-Gazette and other papers, concerning our County Committee meeting last week. Nothing of the kind stated in some of the dispatches sent took place and this effort is only damaging to the candidate thus sought to be benefitted. People are too in telligent these days to be thus hum bugged. HON JAMES K. MOORUEAD, of Pitts burgh, died at his residence in that city on the 6th inst., in the 78th year of bis age. Gen. Moorhead was one of the prominent men of country. Al though self made he worked his way to stations of influence and distinction. He served the Pittsburgh district in Congress for ten years, being first elect ed in 1858. He was a very enterpris ing and useful man and the loss to the community in which be lived is serious ly felt and much regretted. Ma. Jos. M MCNAIR, of New Cas tie, baa beea elected for the tenth tima Grand Recorder of the Aocient Or der of United Workmen in Pennsyl vania. Mr McNair formerly lived in this place and by energy and industry has been successful in the world. He takes great interest in the above Order aud has riseu to be one of itH most im portant and influential officers. We take great pleasure in noting his selec tion as above. Committee Proceedings.. Up to this writing, Tueaday noon, we have not received a copy of the proceedings of the County Committee that met Tuesday a week ago, nor can we, after frequent inquiry, get any trace of them What has become of them ? There are two Secretaries to the Committee whose duty it was to see after this matter. State Senate Question. FAIBVIBW, TWP., March 7, 1884. EDS. C.TIZEN :—Wo have not yet seen the proceedings of the County Committee meeting of the 4th inst, but understand that a resolution was pass ed in it conceding t,o Armstrong coun ty the next nomination for the State Senator to which this district, Arm strong and Butler counties, is entitled this year. If this be true, we think, the Committee did wrong, and exceed ed any power it had in the matter. And, in order that the matter may be understood, let me make a plain state ment of of facts in the case, by which it will be seen that our county is, ac cording to all former usages entitled to the present nomination for the State Senate. The term of a State Senator is four years. Armstrong county had the Grst nomination, Col. Jackson. Then, in 187 C, it was the turn and time of But ler county to receive the candidate. This was conceded by Armstrong Co and owing to the trouble then existing and arising out of the vote cast for Col. Jordan, who bad the highest vote in this county as a candidate for the office at the primaries, the case went to a conference between the two couuties. Johu M. Greer, Esq., was one of the conferees in this conference from this county, appointed by Thos. Robiuson, who claimed he had carried the couuty and not Jordan. After several meet ings of the conferees of the two coun ties the contest was ended by Qreer himself, one of the conferees, obtaining the nomination. Although this was known to be irregular and very extra ordinary proceeding, jet the election was approaching and the best that could be done was to submit and ac cept (Jreer. His name was consequent ly put up in both Republican papers nod his election advised ami he wan ol course elected. He served the four years from 1876 to 1880. Then the nomination was in turn conceded to Armstrong. But Mr Greer was in 1880 it candidate for nomination in this Co., as was Hon. A. L Campbell, both asking for it as a mere compliment, as it was well understood at the time to tie but a compliment, all conceding the right of Armb»rong county to that dis trict nomination. Mr Greer managed ; to have the most votes at our primary. He appointed his conferees who met i those of Armstrong in conferen e; but instead of yielding to the right of Arm strong county at the flr-'t meeting he t prolonged toe conference to meeting a f - j ter meeting and from nine to time and fii allr managed to get the consent of the Armstrong candidal to submit the nomination to the Sta'.t Central Com- j mittee which Senator Don Cameron then controlled. The result cf t l iis was ! th« nomination of -Mr. Greer by th-j , S'ate Committee, thus taking from j Armstrong county her riffbt in 1880. | And now, under this brief statement of facts, which countv is entitled to the candidate now in 1884 ? We did not i take the right of Armstrong away from her four years ago. This county had nothing to do with that wrong to her. The ?tate Committeo did it, Armstrong county consenting to its interference in the matter. Why then is our county now to be deprived of her right to the present candidate? It is onr turn and time now. according to all custom and rule. This thing was done by others, with Armstrong's then candidate con senting. It was no benefit to this county but mere a benefit to a single individual of it, Mr Greer, who through an outside influence secured a seat in the State Senate for another four years that rightfully belonged to another person. And the question now is, should the Republican party of this county be made to suffer for the greedy act of this one individual ? What has our county to show lor thi6 theft of an other counties right—nothing. It gave an office and put money into the pocket of John M. Greer and that was all. Our late County Committee, therefore could not have been aware of the facta in this case, else it never would have conceded to Armstrong a candidate that the usages of the party give to our county this year. At whose instance this matter came before the Committee we do not know, but clearly the Com mittee had no right to pass or consider anything on the subject. This county has the right to the next candidate, and il one is presented we do not see how our right is to bo denied. I write this believing our Committee at its late meeting were taken unawares and act ed as it did without knowiug the facts, and with a desire to acquaint our peo ple with the real facts. A candidate 9hould be presented by oar county for the Senate and the case further discuss ed, and although it would look hard on Armstrong to demand our rights now, according to the usage, yet it was no fault of the Republican party of this county thatshegave away or yielded her rights four years ago, and hence there is no injustice in demanding Butler county's right now, Yours <fee. A REPUBLICAN. CLAY TOWNSHIP NOTES. EDITORS CITIZEN Your readers may be ready to ask if our section, with Sunbury the metropolis in our bounds, expect to furnish the quota of men for all the vacancies to bv filled at the coming election. Ob no, wo do not aspire ourselves to such a monopoly of county notables, but being near Cherry township (of legal notoriety) it will not be thought strange that some of our great men present themselves as candidates for suffrages of the people But we r.re not all candidates. There are enough to form a respectable pro cession to the political funeral that may follow tho primaries. We hope some of theae estimable citizens will be al lowed to remain, however much their good example would benefit the county seat, Tempun omnia revolat A feat of extraordinary horsemanship has received more attention in our sec tion of late than tho coming election. A pqnlre elected at the ide* of Feb- j ruary, had occasion to drive our way nod finding the railroad a good grad6, chose it in preference to tho uneven country road. Though, driring "Julio" whom her master claimn can keep atop with an express for a uiile or two, yet he was with some difficulty pnrsuaded to switch off as tho train almost due, though nothing but a freight, waa bound in the opposite direction. Of course it wan the railroad and not tho 'squire that had been having something to drink. Thisrxploit, though quite un usual,seems to baveeacaped tho notice of Quantum libct who chronicles items for the I'lagle. We have snatched it from oblivion, that it may descend to to our poaterity with the renowned deeds of fathers that the world may know that the Putnams ure not all dead. Hut Butler couty has some sons of noble aires who would dare to ride over any cliff into the roaring Niagara if its torrent was old ryo.
