In order to avoid heavy grades, a greater portion of the old line of the road between Butler and Karns City will be aban doned, thus leaving Millerstown with out railway facilities. Six or seven miles of the Shenango & Allegheny track from Butler will form part of the new road, the remainder of the route leading from a point on that road through Greece City and Trout man to Karns City, where the old road will be widened through Petrolia and Bruin to Foxburg with but few changes i n the route.— Petrolia Rec ord. * THE remarkable letter of Senator Reagan, of Texas, to Jefferson Davis, on the prohibition question, will be Men in another place. Nothing yet appearing on the question has struck us with more force. Coming from an extreme Southern man, and one representing a State as one of its Sena tors in Congress, too much admira tion cannot be given its author. Jeff. Davis, always on the wrong side of every question, it seems undertook to interfere in the Texas election, by writing a letter 16 its Governor against the adoption of an amend ment to the Constitution of Texas. For this interference Senator Reagan rebukes him in an open letter. Pro hibition may have tailed iu Texas yesterday, through the aid of Jeff. Davis, but we hope not. The con test has been ah exceedingly warm one and the Country will look with interest for the result of the election in Texas on Thursday. Kentucky Election. A State election was held in Ken* tacky on Monday last, which has re sulted in'another Democratic victory,, bat by a reduced majority. Large Republican gains were made in some conn ties and the Labor and Work ingmen's party have carried the counties ia which are .Newport and Covington, being counties in Speaker Carlisle's district. General Buckner, the Democratic candidate for Governor elected, was a conspicuous Confederate "officer in tbe late Rebellion and will be recollected as the one who surren dered Fort Donaldson to General Grant. Since tbe war Buckner has played an important part in politics. A Hot July. Esquire Walker, our neighbor, has been keeping the record of the weath er for the past .month or so and* re ports to us as follows, up to the .'id Inst. „ * : Daring July there were Ifi days ia which the thermometer was oyer HO degrees in the shade, and varied from 90 to 100 degrees. For most of the balance of the month it was' from 80 to 90. In the first three days of Aogut>t, tbe thermometer, on the first,Htood «t 91; on tbe second at 90, and on the third, Wednesday, at 91. At nearly 9 o'clock Wednesday evening it Htill stood up to 80 degrees. So this month seems to be keeping up the record of July pretty well. But there is no telling what a day may bring forth now in weather,"as in everything else. It is stated that taken all togetner. tbe late'month of July was the wann est of any July for a cepturj, past. District Nominations. Onr article last week on a change in'making district nominations has received the attention of a number of leadiDg republicans. All agree that the discussion of the matter now is a very proper one, and before a nomina tion comes on to be made in either this Congressional or Senatorial dis trict a change in the old plan should be made. As to the kind of change, or rather as to which one of the only two changes discussed is the best, opinions differ. Some prefer the popular vote as the simplest and, taken altogether, as the best and most Republican. Others, and per haps the greater number, prefer the delegate system, based on the Repub lican vote of each county. We have, therefore, been led to look a little further into the question, and find oar first impressions in re gard to a popular vote system rather confirmed than otherwise, In the counties composing our'present Con gressional district, Beaver, Butler, Lawrence and Mercer, we find the following as the Republican vote of each at the last Presidential election, which election it is generally agreed woald be the fair one to elect dele gates upon in case the delegate sys tem be the one chosen; to wit: In Beaver county Blaine had 5,075. '• Butler " " " 5,217. " Lawrence " " " 4,322. «• Mercer " ' " " 6,331, If 500 votes be taken as the ratis.or basis for distributing the number of delegates to each county,the different counties would have the following number in a district convention, a delegate being allowed for a fraction in a county greater than one-half of the ratio, to wit: Mercer Co. would have 13 delegates. Butler '• " "10 " Beaver " " " 10 " Lawrence" " " 9 " This would make a district conven tion of 42 delegates. The one-half of this would be 21. To nominate it would therefore require but 22 votes to be a majority. It will be seen that the votes of Mercer and Law rence counties, thrown together, would give the required majority,acd might make the nomination, while the district existed,over Beaver and But ler counties. Two counties of the district, the greater and the smaller ones, thas combining could secure the candidates. This would be un fair. Bat it might follow the dele gate plan. And we merely mention it as one objection that can be urged to that plan. There would be every incentive for two counties to thus Combine and return favors in the way of makiog the nominations. It would be an easy matter to bold all the del egates of certain of the counties to gether where such a result could be obtained. And such a result we think would be avoided by a direct vote of the people for candidates. If it be answered that practically the larger county of a district might reap all the honors as well under the di rect or popular voto as under the del egate system, we answer that that would be far less likely to happen than the combining of delegates. The greater or stronger counties would likely have more candidates for the nominations than the weaker or smaller ones. The opposition in them to one particular man or candi date would likely be greater. No one candidate could likely control or secure all the votes of his county. With county lineß out of the way, and the candidates of each county of a district at liberty to enter into all the coanties for support, the strong prob abilities are that each candidate would receive some votes. This would divide up the chances with a satisfactory result more probable. At all events, the voters of the dis trict would have done it. And what they did at one nomination they,from all experience,might turn around and rjfuse to do at the] very The principle of fair play would have a better chance and only a man who had been a faithful member of Con gress or the Senate or rendered his district great service would likely be continued. Another objection to the delegate plan is where there are but two coun ties in a district. In that case the larger one would of course have the advantage, which a popular vote of the two might not give it. As our object is to call attention to this subject, which all admit is an in teresting one, we will be pleased to hear from any others, with their views in the matter. Corn, Potatoes and Peaches Damaged. .LANSING, MICU , Aug. I. The Michigan weather service weekly crop bulletiu reports corn and potatoes suffering severely from the high tem perature and drought. Corn is curl ing in all sections and potatoes promise not more than a two-thirds crop with present weather. Pastures are all dried up. Peaches are affect ed in some localities' Slight frosts is reported in Clare and in Genesee counties on tbe morning of the 23d. Tbe temperature and sunshine have been above and the rainfall below tbe normal. Oil Advanc'ng. The market in oil has been on tbe rise for the past few days. Still it has not again reached tbe sixties. ! There is still buying and selling, but I the market continues weak.- Tb "bear" element seeing to counteract the "bull" one, with the public gener ally not taking much interest in tfcfi market. One sidu is predicting a further decline and the other a speedy advance. An advance in the market, however, looks favorable just now.

The petals got into her lungs, tbe most agonizing pains followed, and sbe died in half an hoar. Ohio Convention —The Reso lutions Passed. Among the planks in the platform of principles of the Republican State Convention of Ohio, held la9t week, are the following : PROTECTIVE TARIFF FAVORED. We are in favor of a protective tariff to secure to American citizens the privilege of supplying every ar ticle which can be produced as well in the United States as in other countries, and sufficiently to supply American wants. Such a tariff makes a demand for and gives employment to the labor of American citizens and thereby aids in securing just compen sation for labor. We denounce the Ohio Democratic platform of a tariff for revenue only, which demands an indiscriminate reduction in all duties on imported articles, the effect of which would be to encourage impor tations, thus giving American pat ronage to foreign producers and for eign labor rather than to our own. We demand such duties on wool and manufactures thereof aa will se cure the American market to Ameri can producers. We denounce the de mand made under President Cleve land's administration by the Secre tary of the Treasury in his annual re port of December 6, 1886, for the "immediate passing of an act placing raw wool upon the free list," and we denounce the Democratic State plat form, which "proclaims its hearty and unqualfied indorsement" of said administration, and demands a "re duction of the present" duty on wool and woolen and worsted goods. Such reduction would destroy the wool growing and woolen manufacturing industries, would invite large imports, break down American competition, and give the control of our market to foreign producers, who would ulti mately demand exorbitant prices. We earnestly protest against the de cisions of the Secretary of the Treas ury in customs cases in the interest of the foreign producer and foreign labor, as in opposition to the letter and spirit of the tariff laws. CIVIL SERVICE REFORM. While we condemn the false pre tence of President Cleveland's admin istration of the civil service law, we advocate the maintenance and proper enforcement of said law, and demand such additional legislation as will re move appointments from partisan in fluence. We condemn the action of Mr. Cleveland in vetoing pension bills, and especially we denounce the spirit manifested towards the maimed and disabled soldiers of the country in the language in which certain of his vetoes are couched, and we condemn as nnjust and unmerited his veto of the dependent pension bill, and de clare that it was in plain violation of of the nation's pledges to its defend ers and of the oft-repeated promises of the Democratic party of the North, made during political campaigns to secure votes. We demand of Con trresa that it pass, and of the Presi dent that he approve, liberal enact ments pensioning the eoldiers of the country ; that the helpless widows of dead soldiers, regardless of the cause of death, dependent parents and dis abled soldiers shall receive the bounty of the nation they fought to save, and which they richly deserve. TIIE CONFEDERATE FLAGS. We heartily indorse the adminis tration of Governor Foraker as wise, prudent, firm and economical; and we do especially indorse and approve his patriotic declaration that no rebel flags shall be surrendered while he is Governor. And we further indorse and approve his piompt action in in stituting restraining measures to pre vent the unlawful order of President Cleveland from being executed. The Republican party has ever been the friend of oppressed nation alities ; and we extend our hearty sympathy to Gladstone, Paruell and the' associates in their efforts to se cure home rule for Ireland. The public lands ot the United States should be sacredly bold for the use and benefit of actual settlers aloDe, and the laws preventing the ownership of these lands by corpora tions and non-resident aliens should be rigidly enforced. PAUPER AND CONTRACT I.AISOR The platform adheres to the policy of welcoming honest and industrious foreigners, but views with alarm un restricted emigration from foreign lands as dangerous to the good order and peace of the country It urges Congress to pass such laws and es tablish such regulations as shall pro tect the country from the inroads of Anarchists, Communists, contract labor in every form, and all others who Beek the country not become a part of its civilization and citizenship Further, the platform says the condi tion of the men who labor in the North cannot bo maintained as long as the men who labor in the South are wrongfully deprived of the rights of American citizen&hip. They there fore demand a free ballot and a fair count in all sections of the country. National strife is deprecated, but the settlement of the war must stand respected, honored and observed in every Bection of the country. Lib eral pensions are favored, adequate appropriations for the improvement of national water ways and national aid to education. If there is too much revenue, the first step in the re duction thereof should be the aboli tion of the tax on American grown tobacco. LIQUOR LAWS. We point with just prido to the en actment of the Dow law in fulfillment of the promises of the Republican party; and we pledge ourselves to such further legislation as may le necessary to keep abreast with th»- enlightened public sentiment on thiu question, to the end that the evils resulting from the traffic in intoxicat ing liquors be restrained to the ut most possible extent in all parts of I the State. Oil Producers' Meeting, BUAPFORU, PA , Aug. I—A meet ing of the leading 1 oil producers was held at the St. Janioa Hotel this af ternoon and evening, ft assembled at the invitation of 11. L. Taylor, of the Union Oil Company, for the pur. pose of taking such action as would lead to the betterment of their inter ests as producers of oil. The meet ing, wfcich was informal in its char acter, was harmonious throughout and resulted in a fyli discussion of the situation, and the following pro ducers, representing fijlly &0 per cent, of total production, were pres ent:— II L Taylor, Buffalo, Prosi dent of the Union Oil Company ; W. J. Voung, Oil City, General Mana ger Forest Oil Company; Col. J. .F. Carter, John L. McKinney, J. C. McKinqey, Titasville; N. F. Clark, M. Lowentritt. T. B.

Wheeler, Bradford The following resolution was adopt ed : WHEREAS, The organizations of producers forming throughout the oil country are so nearly ready to formu late a plan looking to the end for which we strive, we deem it best to defer action until said plan is pre sented : therefore, be it Resolved, That we adjourn to meet at the call of 11. L Taylor and will do all in our power to either join that organization or cooperate in any possible plan to better our condition as producers of petroleum. The organization to which the resolution refers is the "Producers' Protective Association," a secret or der with assemblies in all parts of the oil country, and a meeting of the Producers' Protective Association will be held here to morrow, at which twenty-one assemblies will be repre sented. The State Tax on Watches, Furniture and Carriages. From Pittsburg Com-Gazette.] WASHINGTON, PA., Aug. I.—The Commissioners of Washington and Fayette counties have taken a stand against making return to the State of taxes on watehes, furniture and pleas ure carriages. With a view to mak ing themselves felt, the said Com missioners have sent the following circular to the Board of Commission ers of every county iu the Common wealth, with a request for reply:— OFFICE OF TIIE COMMISSIONERS ) OF WASHINGTON COUNTY, WASHINGTON, PA , July 22, 'S7 ) DEAR SIRS —Do you intend to make return to the State of taxes on watches, furniture and buggies for the current year? The Commissioners of Fayette and Washington counties, believing that the opinion of the Attorney-General, under the date of June 3, is correct, and that the decision of the Board of Revenue Commissioners is arbitrary and unjust, do not propose to make return of such taxes, except under compulsion. Will you take similar action ? Very truly yours, This is sighed by John W. Hair, Jame3 Nixon, Joiin Downey, Com missioners of Fayette county; S. B. Rotharmal, Clerk. J. L. Ross, Da vid Bradford, A. T. Holder, Commis sioners of Washington county; J. E. Barnett, Clerk. Responses have been received from the following counties, the Commis sioners of which will stand by those of Fayette and Washington:—Adams. Allegheny, Butler, Blair, Beaver, Berk 3, Clearfield, Cumberland, Ches ter, Centre, Delaware, Elk, Franklin, Forest, Indiana, Lackawanna, Le high, Lycoming, Montour, McKean, Mifflin, Montgomery, Northampton, Perry, Potter, Pike, Somerset, Sus quehanna, Wyoming, Wayne, West moreland and York. The counties that have responded that they will make such return are Crawford. Clarion, Erie, Hunting don, Jefferson, Lawrence, Mercer, Northumberland, Snyder aud War ren. The Commissioners of Potter and Fulton counties had made return when they received the circular refer red to above, and immediately wrote to the Secretary of Internal Affairs. The Commissioners of the former county were informed by the Secreta ry of Internal Affairs that "we have your letter of the 22d instant, in which you refer to the taxation of fur niture, pleasure carriages and watches. Your report properly ex cluded these articles, but it did not include the value of stages, omni buses, etc , which are still the subject of taxation for State purposes. The law authorizing this tax was not re pealed by the act of May J3, 1887, and you will there/ore make a supple mental statement indicating their value." From the Commissioners of Fulton county word was received that that county bad already made return, but that it was sent back for correction, with instructions to leave these items out of the report, which was done. Their report to the Revenue Commis sion embraces these items of State tax. In case the return is insisted upon, the several counties opposed will no doubt make a test case of the matter, the expenses of the suit to be divided among the counties making the fight. Verdict in the Case of the Mur dered Prohibitionist at Ports mouth. PORTSMOUTH, 0., Aug. I.—The jury iu the celebrated case of All McCoy, charged with the murder of Dr. Northrup, returned a verdict this moruing. McCoy is adjudged guilty of murder in the second degree. . The crime of McCoy was the kill ing in May last, at Haverhill, of Dr. Northrup The victim was a noted Prohibitionist, and it was claimed that McCoy, who owued a saloon, felt enmity toward him on that account. Ou the day of the murder the mau had a little dispute about Guiuea fowls. Dr. Northrup was attacked by A. McCoy, the prisoner, as well as by James McCoy, his brother, and I'ierson McCoy, James' son. North rup defended himself unarmed until the young McCoy brought a gun after his father aud uncle bad empti ed their pistols and gave it to the prisoner, who deliberately shot to death the already wounded Northrup. McCoy was postmaster of the village at the time of the murder. There is much diesatisfaction with the verdic'. The shooting was done iu daylitrfct OD the street aud most people regard it worthy of capital punishment Jumped Overboard- NEW YORK, July 30.—While the Pennsylvania Railroad furry bout Chicago was on her way from Jersey City tbin morning Charles Iteed. who was counsel for Quiteau, the assassin of Uarlield, and also counsel for Mil ton Weston, at Pittsburg, jumped into the rirer from the bow of the boat.

I recog nize the fact that many other good men, like yourself, take the same view.

Very truly your friend, JOHN 11. REAGAN, Earthquake in Kentucky-Land Slide at Midnight. CHICAGO, August 3.—A special from Evansville, Ind., referring to the sinking of land in Trigg county, Ky., since the earthquake of Monday night says : A gentleman who has just arrived from Hopkinsville says that the coun try about the scene is low and swampy, and almost inaccessible in places save by old, beaten paths Much of it is wild and contains large, dense woods. Golden Pond is a mere hamlet, containing two settlements of ne groes, who eke out a living by work ing on several large farms, owned by non-residents. Monday night about 6 o'clock several of them felt the earth tremble, but thought nothing serious bad occurred beyond a slight tremor, and. after gossipping over it went to bed. About midnight everybody was awakened by a sharp shock and had barely jumped to their feet, when the earth with a shaking, dizzy motion, suddenly sank a distance of five feet, carrying houses and terrified darkies with them. The scenes that ensued baffle de scription. The negroes fell on their knees, and iu frenzied tones prayed the Lord to save them. Others be gan shouting and praising the Al mighty, and ever and anon casting an upward glance to see if chariots of fire were not descending. Added to this pandemonium]|was the intense darkness which prevailed, the moon being completely obscured bv heavy black clouds, which hung very low and like a pall over the doomed dis trict. Rumblings were heard from the depths below, which gradually became louder, and numerous springs, hidden for years, suddenly found an opening and began to bubble upward in constantly increasing streams. The terrified inhabitants, not paus ing for household goods or chat tels, gathering their offspring hur riedly, and rushed away from the doomed spot and some of them are still putting as much distance between them and the sinking land as possi ble. More courageous ones only fled until they reached safe ground and there waited until daylight, when they ventured back to the scene of the night's terror and gazed sadly upon the ruin spread before them. Over 250 acres of fine farm land, including one magnificent plantation owned by C. Z. llayden, lay from Eve to six feet below the level of the surrounding country, and contained about three feet of water from the springs started by the earthquake. A large area of tobacco and corn will be a total loss. Nearly all the cabins have been torn loose and are floating about iu various positions, while household goods are mixed up in inextricable confusion. Fortun ately no lives have been lost, but the loss to property is incalculable. The catastrophe was undoubtedly caused by the earthquake, which was noticeable iu Tennessee, Missouri, Kentucky and Indiana at 12:37 A. M., as the rumbling sounds and vibra tions felt were similar to those of a a seismic disturbance. Golden Pond is about 100 miles distant from the spot where a similar catastrophe oc curred about 70 years ago, when a lake of large area suddenly disap peared, leaving nothing but the bed, in the centre of which was a hole of unfathomable depth and several hun dred yards in diameter. Burial Of A Monk. Father Antonius M. Scharman, who died at the Capuchin Monastery, Butler county, last Saturday, was buried this morning iu the Monastery Cemetery. At 1) o'clock a solemn requiem mass was celebrated, which was at tended by twenty priests and about 1,000 people from the town of Butler and the country districts. Father Scharman became a member of the Capuchin order in 1859, and iu 1875 he came to this country. He was the founder of the Capuchin Monas tery in Cumberland, Md., Peoria and Metamora, Ills. He was also Super ior of the Victoria Monastery, Kan sas, and later Rector of the congre gation under this order in Wheeling Owing to his failing health he was forced to leave. He went back to Cumberland, from where he changed to Butler with a view of improving his health, but after a painful sick ness of three months he died.—Pitts burg Telegrauk .Aug. 2. IVL A L-JJD.
