Tn* Supreme Court of this State made a decision last Monday that will go far to settle the license ques tion in tbe future. A Philadelphia applicant who was refused a license •ought to compel tbe lower Court, through the Supreme Court, to grant his application. But tbe Supreme Court refuses so to do, and says li censes may be refused, even if an ap plicant has complied with all tbe pro visions of the law, is a proper man, and so objection bad been made to him or bis petition. In other words that license i* not a legal right. But that a Court, from any cause, even of its own knowledge, may deny a li cense if it thinks it not necessary for the public, and that tbe act of 1887 lodges this full discretionary power to restrain liquor selling in the hands of tbe Judges. We will publish the opinion in full next week, Money at the Primary. Since the late Republican primary •lection in this county we have re ceived information of the use of money in various parts of the county on tbe National Delegate contest. As an instance of what bascome to our knowledge, a friend of Mr. W. C. Thompson wrote to a certain leading Republican of a township, asking him to support Mr. Thompson, and if be did so to a certain extent, it would be worth to him fifty dollars, over and above all expenses, or words to tbat t fleet. We have also received word of other improper means uuod in tbe National Delegate election and publish this now to request our friends to at once send us any nod all kuowiedgo thuv may have of the use of money in thf-ir districts.

The Union Labor Convention. At the coavention of the Union Labor party of Butler County in Reiberto nail last Saturday afternoon the foliowiug State and County plat forms were adopted: STATE PLATFORM. 1. That all mortgages on real estate be taxed, and a corresponding exemptiou of the mortgagor. 2. That speculation in the neces saries of life, "cornering" the markets, and dealing in "margins" and "fu tures" be declared criminal offences, 3. That election day be made compulsory holidays, during which all ordinary business shall be sus pended. 4. The compulsory education of children between the ages of 6 and 14 years inclusive for eight months of every year; that all text books, pens, ink, paper and other material aids to study used in the school be fnrnished by tbe State; and the prohibition of the employment for wages in any branch of industry of children under 15 years of age. 4. The enactment of such laws as shall effectually bring under con trol of the State all corporations en joying special privileges granted by the State, 6. Tbe enactment of an eight-hour work day law, applicable to all the employes of the State aud the coun ties, cities and towns therein, and all the employees of all the corporations, firms and individuals enjoying special privileges of any kind granted by the State, or the counties, cities or towns within tbe State. 7. That, as the present protective tariff laws afford ample protection to capital, but do not accord to labor equal protection, we demand the enactment of such laws as will give to labor eqnal protection with capital from foreign competition 8. Believing the employment of armed guards by corporations for the purpose of terrorizing law abiding citizens, and harrassing tbem into an acceptance of low wages to be inimi cable to free government, the legal authorities being amply able to pre serve order should disturbances arise, we demand that such action on the part of any corporation, firms or indi viduals be made a criminal offence. COUNTY PLATFORM 1. We demand tbe abolition of the contract syßtem on all county work. 2. That effective measures be tak en toward the construction of a better system of roads throughout the country. 3. That while the liquor laws re main in force all applicants comply ing with the requirements of said laws be granted license without dis crimination or favoritism. The nominations wore then made as follows: For Congress—D. R Rodgera, with A. A. Leidecker, and Thomas Greenfield as conferrees. For Senate—Wm. H. Dangherty, with A. A. Leidecker, C. A. Lewis and Henry Timblin as conferrees. For Assembly—B. W. Douthett and Thomas Brady. For Jury Commissioner—P. W. Thomas. Chairman Merviu of Butler, was elected County Chairman, and Wm. J. Rodgers of Petrolia, Sec'y, John Glass of Renfrew, was elected treas urer, and A. C. Price was chosen delegate to Cincinnati. The delegate to tbe National Con vention was instructed to oppose tbe Henry George land theory. Our Legislative Nominees. The below from the Harrisburg Telegraph relative to the recent nom inations made i i >ur County for the Senate and Assembly, will be heart ily endorsed by the Republicans of this county. It speaks knowingly in what it says as to Dr. Showalter's record and landing while a member of the lower House, and in expressing tbe opinion that he should be nomi nated and elected in this Senate district it but voices tbe general sentiment. When tbe district conference comes to meet we hope our Republican friends of Armstrong County will look on the matter in the same way and join in giving the Doctor the dis trict nomination: "The Butler county Republicans have done themoelves proud in nomi nating their Legislative ticket. The choice for Assembly has fallen on Capt. R. I. Boggs and Joseph Thomas, Jr., two exceptionally wor thy men, of broad and liberal views and splendid capabilities. Hon, J. B. Sbowalter is their choice for Sena tor, and bis record is such that the district should have no hesitancy iu unanimously endorsing him. Mr. Sbowalter was a most intelligent legislator, always at his post, keenly alive not only to the interests of his couuty but of tbe entire state. A man of integrity, of ripe judgment and high-toned moral worth, Mr. Sho walter should be selected as Senator from the Butler and Armstrong dis trict."—Harrisburg Telegraph. First Flowers of May. The flowers of May are here—and what is more refreshing ami lovely? The first of all to come in fields and woods Is the white flowering of the small tree known as the "service berry," by sonic* called "June berry" —just how this term "service" came, and what it meaos, we have never fully learned. But seen among the bleak oaks and other yet leafless forest trees, its flowers are every spring most welcome. Prettier still, and far more charming, is the peach tree blos soms, which are the next to put in uu appearance. In passing through the country, just at this time, nothing could be more lovely and beautiful than the sight of the pink colored peach blossoms. As Been alone aloug the fence rows or in the corners of the fields, surrounded on all sides by naked and dreary objects, the new and tender flowerß of the little peach tree are indeed an inHpiring sight. The flowers of spring are ulways welcome but these first ones of May fill the mind with the most pleasant emo tions. Will be in Butler. Mr. J. K. Brittain, of Greenville, the fine artist in crayon portrait painting, will be in Butler next Mon day, May 14, and remain here for per haps a couple of months. lie has made crayon likenesses of several of our citizens, all of whom are well pleased with them. Some of his work will be on exhibition in THE HIIOW windows of the towu where all can inspect them and judge fur themselves of his merit as a portrait painter. After leaving here Mr. Brittain will go to Chicago. —Mr. William Mi I>odd«, of Mount Joe, Ohio, and wbo went there from this county 38 years ago, was back here this week on a visit to his old friends. Politics Of the Nation. NEW YORK, May 2—The second anti-saloon Republican National Con ference began its sessions today at tbe Cooper Union. There was pres ent about 150 delegates during the morning session, and in tbe afternoon tbe number amounted to about 125 According to the official list there were delegates present from Alabama, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Delaware. Indiana, Illinois, lowa, Kansas, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Tennessee, Vermont and New York. Delegates from some other states are expected to be present to-morrow. At 10 o'clock Albert Griffin, of Kan sas, called the meeting to order, and Rev. Henry S. Deforrest, president of the Talladega College, Talladega, opened the convention with a prayer. Mr. Griffin, in outlining the busiuees of the Convention, spoke of the evil of the saloon and the necessity of curbing its power and said that the only army that could oyerthrow it was the Republican party. Seventy five per cent of the Republican party, he said were opposed to the saloon, and 15 per cent of the remainder were indifferent. He did not think that there was more than half of 1 per cent of the Republican party iu favor of the saloon, and he thought they would be eliminated at the next Na tional Convention, and tLc soouer they left the party tbe tetter. [Ap plause.] Tbe other per cent c«uld be saved to the party if tbey were not driven out by the proposition of too radical measures. He then read a circular which he had sent out to prominent Republicans, inviting them to be present, and to this be had re ceived many replies, sympathizing with the object of the Convention and giving reasons for not being able to attend. He read a few of the re plies received. Senator Sherman wrote: "I will not be able to attend on ac count of official duties. I certainly would support all reasonable meas ures tending to restrain the evils that confessedly flow from the sale of liq uors in the saloon. The proper rem edy for these evils depends so much upon the status of public opinion in the community in which the law is to operate that no rule or even regula tion can be enforced in all places a like." Senator Evarts wrote: "I hope your expectations of an influential meeting will be realized and that your efforts for the beu it of the Re publican party in ita enlistment against ealoon politics will triumph." Mr. Griffin said also that Chauncev M. Depew bad promised to send a letter, but noue had beeu received. He then named as the temporary chairman General Thomas G. Mor gan, Rhode Island. General Morgan said tbe object of the the Convention was to bring an influence to bear upon tbe National Convention which shall induce it to speak out with no uncertain sound upon this temperance questiou. Al luding to speech of Mr. Lamar before Club, be quoted from it the express ion that the "Republic is opportuni ty." He (the speaker) said he would say rather "tbe Republic is duty." and this was applicable to the party as well as to the individual, and to the party the Republic was duty rather than opportunity. Other speeches were made by General Stew art L. Woodford and General Nettle ton, of Minnsota. The Pairs Passed It. WASHINGTON, D. C.. May 7 —The Louisiana Legislature meets next Monday and a Senator is to be elect ed to succeed Mr. Gibson, whose term of affice expires next March, and so the River and Harbor bill was taken up in the Home today under a suspension of tbe rules, aud passed with thirty minutes debate by a vote of 161 to 69, two thirds being neces sary. Mr. Blanchard, of Louisiana, who. as Chairman of the River and Harbor Committee, has tak'jn charge of the rivers, harbors and bayous of Louisiana to the extent of a million or two, is a candidate for Mr. Gib son's seat This was the last chauce to get the hill through iu time to make every appropriation count as fodder to his Senatorial boom, lie made a tremendous effort aud thor oughly deserved the congratulations be received upon his success. As passed by the House, the bill increases the appropriation for tbe improvement of Buttermilk Channel, New York, from $30,000 to $100,000; Gowanus Bay, SIO,OOO to $20,000; Gleu Cove harbor is reduced from $20,000 to $10,000; and an appropri ation of SIO,OOO is made for the breakwater at Port Jefferson harbor. The appropriation ot $250,000 for the improvements of Philadelphia harbor remain in thf bill. Thirty thousand dollars is given to St. Augnsline, Fla harbor; Cleveland harbor is increased from $75,000 to $100,000; Humboldt harbor, Cal , is reduced from $l5O, • 000 to $125,000; while Oakland bar bor is increased from $175,000 to $200,000; Harlem river, N. Y., is reduced from $150,000 to $70,000. The Pennsylvania member-* voted as follows: Aves—Bayne, Bingham,* Harmer, Jackson, Kellv, O'Xeill, Randall and Seott—B. Xoes—At kinson, Brumm. Buckalew, Dalzoll, Darlington, Ermentrout, llall, 1 leis taud, Osborne, Scull, Soudeu and Yardley—l2. The others were pair ed. It was the pairs that passed the bill. As it took a two to one vote to carry the bill, every supporter of the bill who was paired counted as much as two. Whitmire Well. From reliable Information we can state that the well on Jacob Whit mire farm, Oakland Tp., between Boydstown and Greece City, is a good one it is not permitted to have full flow, as Deither tanks or pipes are in place for it yet, but it gives every indication that when ail things are ready and in shape it will be a good flower, as high it is thought as 200 barrels per day. Should all this prove, as now confidently expected, to bo the result, this new well will open up a large field and reproduce the old and exciting times in and around Greece City.

Citizen: —A little mare thau a year a£o I took Horace Greeley's • advice aud came west; located in the i couuty named ia Lis honor, the new | est couuty in Kansas. Some of my I Butler couuty friends requested me Ito write a description of Western j Kansas And by your leave, Mr. i Editor, I will give, so far as I can, my experience and observations througk the columns of your paper. But one year in a county so recently settled as Greeley, cannot be taken as a sample of the years to come. Gree lev couaty is situated in the centre of the state north aud south, bounded on the west by the state of Colorado. It is 80 miles long by 25 miles wide. The surface is a gently rolling prairie, every acre of which is tillable. The soil, a dark loam mixed with sand, and by chemical analysis has been found to coutain potash, soda, phos phate of lime, carbonate of lime aud other substances ueeessary to plant growth. The crops that did the best last year, ou sod or first plowing, were sorghum, fodder corn, broom cora, millet and melons of all kinds. Owing to the stiffness of the sod corn does not ear well, neither do the smaller grains yield well on sod. Al most all of the crop raised last year was upon sod. In addition to those mentioned, the following named crops did well on second plowing: rye, po tatoes, turnip 3, peauuts, peas, beans and onion 3. There was no wheat raisri here last year. I have been but one piece that was sown last fall and looks well now. \Y T e had more rain last year thau they had in coun ties east of this; but that is no assur ance that we will have plenty this year. There is more danger of a dry year, and consequently failure of crops, here than in Pennsylvania- But as the country becomes settled, broken up, cultivated, etc, the rainfall increases, such has been the history of Kansas iD the past. It seldom raius here in the winter,consequently the roads are in good condition all winter. We had a little sleighing this winter but there is seldom any sleigh ing in westernKausas. We got our first rain last year on the 14th and this year oa the 7th April. There are few springs of water iu this county, good water is obtained at a depth of from 25 to 100 feet, more frequently the latter. Western Kansas is practicuily void ot timber, only a few cottonwood trees growing along some of the streams. I haven't seen a natural growing tree in Greeley Co. There were some trees planted last year that did well, and by the close of the present year, thousands of trees and tree seeds, both fruit and forest will have been planted. The sun iimuch hotter here than ia Pennsylvania. But there is almost always a gentle breeze of wind (sometimes though it isn't so very gentle), so that the heat isn't so noticeable. During the past winter we had some very seyc-re weather. We had four blizzards It wouldn't be safe to be out on the prai rie, unless you were iu a house, dur ing a b!izz*rd. There were no per sons lost or frozen here last winter, though some of the eastern papers re ported a number of deaths thereby. We had more nice warm weather last winter than I ever experienced during any previous winter in the east. The elevation, parity of the air, freedom from swatups, etc, places western Kansas above tho reach of ague, and renders it generally health ful. Thj Missouri Pacific railroad runs through the centre ot the couuty and others are beiug constructed, so that the products of every clime can be brought within our reach. Church and school advantages are as good in this as in any other new county. In the towns, Horace, Trib une, liiod and Colokan, either the Methodists, Baptists, Cumberland Presbyterians or United Presbyteri ans have preaching every Sabbath. There are also Sabbath schools and day schools, not only in each of these towns but also in different parts of the couuty. A colony of Cuited Presbyterians is located in the western part of the county. They organized a congregation less thou a year ago, and at present number 125 communicants. They have erected a frame church building and have Sabbath school and preaching every Sabbath also day schools in different parts of the colo ny. North of the U. P. colony is a soldiers' colony. While many per sons come here for speculation only, many more come to get homes and to stay if the seasons and crops will jus tify them in doiug so. But what the future of western Kansas will be re mains to be seen. Surely this broad and beautiful prairies was not design ed to always remain uninhabited save by range cattle, antelopes, wolves and and other wild animals, but it seems that the time has come for man, the paragon of animals, to take possess ion, discover that to which it is best adapted aud thereby cause it to con tribute more fully,perhaps, to the will of Him who formed it; and also to the general good of mankind. W. P. PHILLIPS, HORACE, GUEELEY Co, KAS , MAY 3, 'BB. A Birthday Party. PROSPECT, April 27, 1888. Toe children, grandchildren, friends and neighbors of Airs. Ellie Forrester, of Franklin Twp , this county, cele brated her G7tb birthday on the 23rd inst, at which there were present about 80 persons. The dinner was the first thing ou the program and the long table groaned under the heavy weight of turkey, chicken, cakes, pics and other things too num erous to mention. After all present were served the assemblage was call ed to order by Mr. William Scott Mr. James Y. English was elected chairman, a large centre table was filled with many handsomo and use lul presents which were presented her by ilev. J. M. Hay and in behalf of Mrs. Forrester, Mr James Wilson returned thanks for the many pres ents aud the kiud feelings of her Iriends and neighbors. Remarks were made by others prescut after which Rev. Ray led iu prayer and closed with the benediction. All went home feeling they had a good dinner and a very pleasant time. J. P. 11. A Postmaster Gathered in. Ar.TOoffA, May s.—lt has been evideut to Assistant United States Marshall F.»rd for some time past that an exjwrt gang of counterfeiters was at work iu the mountains near this city, and his# suspicions were more than confirmed by information that reached him last Tuesday that the coiners were located near Coal port, a coke and lumber town on tbn Bell's Gap Railroad In company with Detective Simpson. Ford went out the road Friday morning, and by a circuitous movement they gained | g ii:»vil the h»us.' ot !s:iac Edmunson, i arivaline him while at work on the | dies, lie was caught iu the act, and , surrendering without, resistance, was taken in iron* to Bell wood. Coun terfeit silver money iu various de nominations was found on him. This nvrning two detectives and Marshal Ford returned to Lloydsville. and proceeding to work on clues dis covered on Edmunsoo, they footed across the woods to Horner's Notch, a wild and rocky fastness ia the Alle ghenies, where even the backwoods man rarely enters. Th re th»y surprised Daniel Gar man in a board and bark shauy, surrounded by the imple ments of the counterfeiter, and was just about pouriDg out metal into a series of dollar moulds before him Garmaa dropped the pouring pot and reached for an old carbine stantliug iu a corner of the room. Detective Simpson promptly knocked him down and put him in chains. A search of the premises followed, and in a small hole near the rocks, discovered by the mearest accident, nearly $2,000 in counterfeit coin was found. Garman admitted that this sum of the spurious represented five weeks ot hard toil, The dies captur ed were very complete, aud there were several plates of notb engraving but they had not been used. Returning to Lloydsville, Marshall Ford stepped into the postoffice, and going up to the counter said: "You're John Myers, I believe." "That's my name, sir." "Well, I want you to come along with me. You have been robbing the mails and assisting ia some jobs oat here on the hills." The recently appointed postmaster, Myers, turned several colors as he eyed the Marshall, but leaving the place in charge of his son, he accom panied him Myers has hitherto been a highly respected citizen, arid as the proprie tor of the famous Mountain House, is known to a great many people in this section of the State. The evi dence is direct, concerning his con nection with the counterfeit gang. Proceeding to Coalport with Gar man and Myers, the Marshall left them iu charge of detectives, and .iro- i oi? over to Blainc'City found two more counterfeiters hustling halves and quarters from the moulds. He sur prised them at the point of the pistol, and marched back to Coalport with th ee complete outfits of moulds and dies. The men gave their names as Estep and Lord, and refused to speak beyond charging their arrest to Ed inunson, who gave the whole busi ness away. The entire valley is excited over the raid. There has beeu nothing like it since Gregory and his gang were taken nine year ago. Marshal Ford aud the detectives took the five counterfeiters to Huntingdon this af ternoon. They were heavily ironed, and ufter a preliminary hearing will be trans/erred to the Eastern Peniten tiary at Philadelphia to await trial in the United States Circuit Court The raid will he continued throughout Sunday in the vicinity o! I'unxtu tawney, where two gangs are located. Frederick In His Agony. BERLIN, May 6 —The rain and sleet to-day have penetrated the double windows of the Imperial Pal ace. His Majesty is worse than at any time within the past few days to-uight, but an improvement is de pended on with the arrival of better weather. The rojrjl patient seems to have lost all strength of lungs and limbs. Another relapse is expected by the medical experts. At each re lapse the most unfortunate of mon archs seem 3 perceptibly lower. Dr. Mackenzie, when seen to-day, was remarkably uervous, "a sure that his Majesty was worse. To night the best information around the palace is that his fever is higher, and his general condition unsatisfactory. A driviug storm has dispelled the crowd. Only gloomy and dumb sen tinels are to be seen and all ingress is barred at the palace. I have heard tonight from a physi ci&n in a position to speak with en tire accuracy, that the suffering of the Emperor was so great duriog the ro ceut trouble with the insertion of the tube, followed by tho resignation of Surgeon Bergmanu, that he actually tore tho sheets in his agony. It was only at the last minute, when there was imminent danger of suffocation, that Dr. Mackenzie called Bergmaun, by means of a mounted messenger, It was necessary to insert a uew canula, reaching dowu into tho treacbea,' without delay. The operation led to bleeding aud much subsequent suffer ing. While the doctors quarreled tho invalid underwent the most pitiable sullering. The bed clothes were torn so lhat they had to be entirely replaced. This information is now substantiated and is expected to be of great importance iu the physicians' light, which is to come later on when the services of the doctors are no longer required. Dr. Mackenzie had a man here named Schcicter, who was known as his literary adjutant, and who furnished' bedside news to the English newspapers. Ho left at a moment's notice four days ugo and the German journalists now say he was ordered out of Berlin. Though 1 haye failed to verify this extraordi nary iliut!tratiou of the leugths to which official spite against the En glish physician can go, the preseut eHurts of the doctors to collect mater ial lor a post mortem warfare is an other evidence of the extreme jeal ousy, envy and narrow nature of cer tain men of this profession, even iu the hour of impending national culam ity, when petty quarrels should be smoothed out. <l'hero is no doubt that among the physicians the ques tion of which doctor will wiu is of vastly more consequence than the struggle of the Emperor with his un happy fate. Mr. Sylvester Cooper, of Slip peryrock Tp., was in town recently disposing of some of his good maple syrup, which he annually makes at his t>ugar camp, now about the only camp in the County.

May 3, 1888, Mrs. Mary Sullivan, widow of the late John Sullivan, Esq. deceased, in the 88th year ot her age. Mrs. Sullivau was the oldest citizen ot Butler, and has lived in or near this place for mure than seventy years past. She was the eldest daughter of Rev. Johu McPherrin, the first Presbyterian clergyman who caoie to aud preached iu Butler. Her husband, John Sullivan, Esq. has beeu deceased for more than thirty years, and was at oue time Prothonorary of the county aud held other positions of trust, Her two children, Col.

Sullivan, survive her aud are among our weil known and respaoted citizens, Mrs. Sullivau was possessed of all the virtues of woman, and, as said by Dr. Young at the funeral services lived, and died without a single stain upon her character. She lived an eminently religious, pious and useful lifa and was known to aud spoken of by all as a good woman. The tuneral services on Saturday last were very impressive, and were attended, among others from abroad, by the Hon. Daniel Agnew, of Beaver, Pa., late Chief Justice ot Pennsylvania, and Rev.
