As there seems to be some little mis apprehension as to the delegates the Republicans of this county are called upon to elect, and the manner of voting for them at the coming Primary of April . r >, we will again state the matter- We do this the more cheerfully as this is the first year, under the new rules of the party, that so many delegates are to be chosen, and thus naturally there is all the more light needed to prevent possible confusion in the voting. In the first place, there i« one dele gate to the National Convention to l>e ehoowe. For this position three can. didates are announced, Messrs. Hitter and Kiddle of Butler, and Charles M. Brown, Ksq., of Harrisville. The voters must choose between them on the sth of April, and as that position is at the head of the tickets being cir culated there cauuot well l»e any mis take in the manner of voting. But as to the State delegates t here may possible lie somejnformation need ed as there are three of them to elect. One of these three is called a Sena torial delegate, and it is thus printed WD the tickets. The other two are call ed Representative delegates. For the Senatorial there is but one nante an nounced as jet, Mr. llarley, of I'etrolia. lie, if elected, will represent in the State Convention this State Senate district Butler and Armstrong coun ties. Then there remain two Kepro sentative delegates tu elect. Them two represent the county proper in the State Convention For these two places the voter will observe there are four names announced, Messrs. Barr, Brandon, McCall and Stephenson. Front these four names two must be selected by the voter on the f»th of April, thus making in fact three tickets to fill up in all for delegates. The tickets that are being circulated will guide the voter if observed closely. By the order of the County Com mittee the member of the committee in hie district should be npon the ground, organize the meeting, and act as the judge of.the same, und bring to the County Convention on April 7, the votes cast, declare the result, and do whatever else may be necessary iu the primaries. THE Allegheny Connty Republican primary, for the election of Delegates to the National and Htate Conventions, comes off on Saturday next. The con test there between the adheranta to the old machine methods and the people is a new one for Allegheny county aud is looked to with great interest out side, as it involves much of importance to the Republicans of the State. The issue is, whether the Kepublican vo ters of Allegheny county shall choose said delegates or whether they shall be chosen by set up delegates to the State Convention The voters generally are for Maine for President and have de termined that the will of the majority shall prevail. This they are enforce ing through a Citizens Committee of One Hundred and they go right down to the people for instructions, and all is iieing done within the party organi sation. SATURDAY K week, April the tirst Kepublican primary. Let there be a good turnout in everv district. C'on ▼ention on the following Monday, April TtU. NEXT Saturday week, first primary comes off. A CHOI. k for President is printed upon the tickets for the tirst primary to ifiv<» the voters an opportunity to express who they tavor. THE peoples'train has the right of wav this vear—t<et on board—plenty of room and no change of cars, says the Philadelphia I'rex.*. Tits lowa State Senate hat- passed a Woman Suffrage amendment bill to the Constitution of that State If the House concurs it will go to the peo ple for approval. THE mental condition, monomania, of one of our press is alarming to his friends, who are now talking about Dixmont Hospital as the curative place This is a sad case. THE New York Independent believes that "the end of this century will see prohibition adopted over nearly our whole country" and adds, "and yet peopic tell us the world is growing worse and worse. THE Attorney General of the Cnited States directs all 17. S. Attorneys and Marshals to see after and prevent the shipment to foreign countries of dyna mite, our great explosive. It is used in the old world to blow up the rulers in disfavor. THE communication relative to the new election district at Bald Ridge, this county, came too late for insertion this week It has been created for tho con venience of the people there and upon a petition sent to the Court signed by nearly all, we understand,of the voters in that fast growing place. The proceed ings for its formation are said to 1R- all regular and according to law. IT is rather amusing to seo the run now to get on the Blaine train. But it will carry all. bet Butler county Republicans join in and instruct her delegates on April sth, to both Na tional and State Conventions, for Blaine, the people's choice,and if Penn. sylvania sends a solid delegation to the National Convention he will be nom inated and success assured in Novem ber. THE Grove City Telephone is a little mixed in its announcement list of candidates. It has the name of Mr. George Moon, Republican candidate for Sheriff nomination of this county under the head of its Democratic an nouncements. Mr. Moon's name should be in its Republican list of an nouncements. So also it has the name of Mr. Tinstman for County Superin tendent, among its Democratic an nouncements. That office should be under the head of neither party, al though Mr. Tinstman is a Republican. THE Democrats in Congress are getting deeper and deeper in trouble on the tariff question. We have never Iteen much alarmed at their efforts to lower the tariff rates, and now feel ldss. They do not and cannot agree among themselves. But the wonder is that they bring up this question at at present. The i>eople generally feel that a step was made in the wrong di rection by the reduction made by the last Congress, especially in the articles of wool and woolen goods. The old rates on the importation of foreign wools ought certainly to l»e restored, and if Congress would do that the people would excuse them from any further attention to the tariff question at present. Receiver Appointed. A Receiyer has been appointed for the Shenango and Allegheny Railroad. The application for same was made in Pittsburgh last week by creditors who reside in Great Britian. But we under stand their object is not to sell or em barrass the road, but merely tp protect themselves from what may l>e done by other creditors. The road will be run as usual, and under the manage ment of Mr. Blair as heretofore. There has been no mismanagement alleged against him or the officers of the road Mr. Blair on the contrary has been continued as General Mana ger by the Receiver appointed, Thomas P. Fowler, of New York. The Receiv ership embraces also the Mercer Mining and Manufacturing Company. We hope it may not be long until both these companies are free from any fi nancial embarrassments. Receiver Fowler has issued the gen eral order No. 1, bearing date the l.'tth inst: "Having lieen appointed Receiver of the Shenango & Allegheny (It. K. and the Mercer Mining and Mannfac turing Co. by the circuit Court of the I'nited States for the Western District of Pennsylvania, by virtue of such appointment, I have this day taken possession of the properties of both Companies, and hope every one will l>e interested in my efforts to reorgan ize and place the properties in a posi tion of strength and credit, and i ask continuance of the faithful services which all the employees have per formed for the otticers of the Com panics. I will endeavor to arrange for Ihe prompt payment of all wages in arrcar, and my wish is to have the employees hereafter promptly paid. Mr. .1. T. Blair will continue to act as General Manager of both Compa nicfl, and in addition will assume the duties and responsibility of Assistant to the Receiver. THOMAS P. KOWI.HR, RECEIVER." —The next term of the West Sunbury Academy will open on Monda,yMarch 24. The indications are that the at tendance will be large.

CITIZEN :—Failing to see in the papers the proceedings of our late Re publican County Committee, I drop this in behalf of the Republicans of this section, and ask, why are they not pub lished ? It seems the proceedings were given to a young attorney of Butler, at his own request, and with n promise from him that he would prepare them for publication in the Republican pa pers But it seems now that part of them are suppressed ami are never to see the light. Who is doing this, the Republicans of the county have a right to know, as the county committee al ways has been supposed to represent the party of the county Wo know it is not vou, or the CITIZEN office, that is suppressing our proceeding's, as you have called for them, and have desired to publish them entire Before the meeting of the Committee we were told by the Eagle that it was an extra good committee, that it was a "loyal" one; that it was a very "intelligent" one, and "knew its own business," and that when it assembled it would do its busi ness satisfactory to the Republicans of the county, etc. All this was said when it was l»eing urged by the Eagle that the committee should choose the delegates to the State and National Conventions and not let the people choose them by our party rules. Now what has made so great a change, that when this "loyal" committee did meet on March 4. and did its work, that its full proceedings arc suppressed ? [t seems it is not as "loyal" now, after its meeting, as it was before its meeting And the Eagle this week tells us it acted "hasty and ill-advised," and in sults the members of the committee by telling them, "if the committee wants to go into the newspaper business it can do so, provided it is ready to pay our price." What this "price" would be, we don't know, but for the good of the party we think it ought to be raised and paid and that concern ended. This is an eye-opener as to tho Republican ism of that paper We have on some occasions taken some stock in its say ings, but this satisfies us we were mis taken in ita Republicanism- And if the committee would join iu and buy it out we think there would be no further trouble in the party. It wants not only to dictate to the committees but it is filled tvery week with abuse of Repub licans. Look at it this week! Men of the highest standing in the party and in society are attacked, merely because their names are announced as candi dates. This kind of low abuse is not done anywhere else in any Republican paper we see. And it is only doing good to the men it abuses and harm to its favorites. And therefore let it go on, and you go on in your way as you are doing, and make no answer to any of its slurs, and you will soon see what the people think of the course of the Eagle. OBSERVER. Communication. MESSRS EDS: —I would like to ask the correspondent of the Eagle whether it was three, beardlex* boy* that detain ed Sanford here on Saturday night ? We know what the answer will l.e. It was tho "big bugs" of tho town that brought him Imre this time. They fared no better than the boys did. W hat was the reason ? Because the people have found out how meanly some of them acted towards the boys who were doing all in their power to give the peo ple the benefit of a good lecture. The people that were there went away satis fied that they had got the worth of thoir money. It was not so on Saturday night. Again the half that were there were ( 'Jompliinentariex and the mem bers of the association. But notwith standing all this we extend our heartfelt sympathies to the association and its Honorable Head in this their very sad disappointment and l>eg them to remem l»er "lis hard to crush the boys." "WIDE AWAhS." Butler, I*a., March 24, 1884. Connoquenessing Items. The farmers are beginning to turn their attention to their spring work.

Drilling will soon commence at the whole four and will test that territory. The farms drilled upon are those of Joseph Criswell, Dininger and S. and -I. Khaffner. —A well is uliio to be drilled, we learn about half a mile down the creek from this place, on the Bred in prop erty by J. H. Jack and J. 11. Sutton of this place. With these enterprises being successful Butler will have her greatest boom yet. The People Ruling. The great body of delegates in the National Republican convention will come directly from the people. They will will be chosen by popular district con ventions, in hurmony with tin- spirit and order of the Convention ot They will speak from the people and for the people. Kvery delegate (row -Yew England without exception will be elected in this way New Kngland knows no other rule. Every delegate from New Vork will go with similar credentials The representatives of each district will bo chosen by a popular convention within the district, and not a single one of the sixty eight district delegates of New Yotk will be elected at the State Convention. Every delegate from Ohio and the other States of the great West will go in the same way.—Phil a del J>h in I'rex*. Save Money, uoijig- yojjr purchasing, at Hi ma 4 12 ;• f»7«>v's ANNOUNCEMENTS.
