Th* Democratic ticket is still run
ning well—in England.
Mr. W. T. MAY, of Sharon, Mer
cer County, is the Prohibition nomi
nee for Congress in this district.
Thk query of the average Demo
crat just now is: "Am I a Free-trade

GENERAL HARRISON will take a
rent this week. Mr Cleveland will
not begin to rest until after the 4th
of next March.
THE President is still for free wool
bat be is afraid to go out and shear
it He is fearful of being bitten by
an American sheep.
R«t. John Graham preached an
interesting sermon in the Kjiiscopal
Church of this place laet Sunday
morning. Rev. Graham was born
and raised in Butler, and is now in
charge of an Episcopal Church at
Marietta, Lancaster coonty. Pa.
To fish, or not to fish? That is the
qiMtion. W bether it is nobler in
President Cleveland to bear the ills
be has on free trade and the tariff
question or to fly to some other one
ba knows more about—the fishery
question? Caat out your net and
take them in; so say we all.
NEXT President, General Benja
min Harrison.is resting at present at
put In Bay, Lake Erie, not far dis
tant from Toledo. His speech s, so
far, have been models in style and
•pi in thought, saying nothing not
appropriate to the position he is in
before the people. More delegations
have risited him Bince his nomination
than ever before visited a enndidste
for the Preeidency. As Blaiue pre
dicted, hia nomination recalled and
revived all the memories and history
of the campaign <jf 1840, at which bis
illustrious grandfather was elected
President.
Ma. C HABLJtS C. TOWNSEND. of
Beaver coonty, the Republican can
didate for Congress in this district,
made our town a visit last week and
was warmly greeted by the Republi
cans here. He was present at the
meeting of our Republican County
Committee, last Saturday, and made
gome remarks pertinent to the issues
of the present campaign. Mr. T. ifa
» business man and well posted on all
tho public questions of the day and
if elected to Congress he will make
a diligent member and serve hia dis
trict faithfully aud creditably. He
will return and be present on one of
the days of the coming Fair at this
place, when he will f'c pleased to see
aa many of the people of the county
M possible.
His Voice is for War.
One of the most amusing things
ever happening in our Government
came to pau last week. As is well
known, the trouble with Canada, or
the British Government rather, about
fiah anrf fish-catching in the waters
dividing ns and Canada, has been
one of long standing. And so our
Congreaa last year, eighteen months
ago, antborired the President, Cleve
land, to retaliate on the people of
Canada in whatever wrong or out
rages they committed upon our fish
ing-ships or fibbing rights in tho c e
waters. But the President did not
retaliate, did not issue any proclama
tion on the subject, as be was author
ised to do, but sought a remedy by
treaty. A treaty was gotten up.
But its provisions were all upon one
side; the side ot Cauda, at lea«t so
thought the Senate of the United
States, which body hax the ratifying
of treaties with foreign powers.
The Senate last week refused to rati
fy this treaty, and thereupon Presi
dent Cleveland imuicditlely sent a
warlike and evidently prepared mes
sage to the Sen«*e, K«vt'nf* «n
"now give me tn re power unc* 1 will
ahow op these Canadian*, 1 will mak»
war upon them." The Senate an
swers, that be has already all the,
power necessary. But there is no
danger of Mr. Cleveland doing any
thing of the kind. His message is
regarded as a mere electioneering de
vice—a mere bluff—and for the pur
pose of diyerting attention from the
tariff issue be had raised and which
is worsting his cbancea for a re-elect
ion wonderfully. Ho doesn't want
war with Canada about Mi, but does
with the Senate and the ilt-publicana,
in which be would figure as a great
war President. Another war might
bs M good thing; especially as it
woald give some an opportunity of
going to it who were not in the late
war for the Union, Mr. Cleveland
among them. It would be a war, not
for the Union but for fish, and be is
grant on fiah and fishing, particularly
oo Memorial days. So let tbe war
go on—and give tbe Democrats a
rhaace now to fight—for fish.
The "Tippecanoe" Voters.
We had thought that our last issue
would clone out the list of the old
Tippo«auoe votera yet living in the
county. But "the cry in still they
come," ami HO we let the list stand
until nil nro heard from. We add 18
this week, aud it is said that thoro
art' a few hack. Slipperyrock twp ,
contributes * uew names; Worth tp.
2; l'enn twp„ 2; Washington twp., 1;
Allegheny twp., 1; Donegal twp., 1;
Centerville 1; Butler 1, aud Conno
quenossing twp., 1 more, which keeps
that twp., still in the lead, with Slip
peryrock now a close second. In on
ly two twps., Venango and Clear
field, are there none reported. The
whole number now on the list is 22;>.
Could we add those now outside the
county, but in it in 1840, the list
would still be increased, but the rule
we started out on prevents us from
inserting their names.

ocratic fund, to carry this
election and help re-elect himself.
No previous President was ever
known to do the like. The dignity
of the high office of President of the
United States is certainly lowered, if
not degraded, when such things are
done. The people should manifest
their disapproval of such use of mon
ey bv their President.
HON. WILLIAM L. SOOTT, tho no
ted Democrat who succeeded by his
money in getting twice elected to
Congress from the Erie district of this
state, now declines to again be a
candidate. He evidently snuffed de
feat in the breeze and concluded that
discretion is the better part of valor.
The Republicans intend now to re
deem that district and Mr. Scott evi
dently thought to make his escape
from defeat in time. The redemption
of that district, and this one also, by
leaving Mr. Norman Hall at home,
will make two of a change in the
Pennsylvania delegation alone, and
count four of a difference in the next
Congress. Similar changes over the
country will make the next House of
Congress strongly Republican.
Protection and Trusts.
From Washington, Pa., Observer.]
"Trusts" is the magic word with
which the Democrats have started
out to conjure victory this year. Four
years ago they used Civil Service re
form, Then they extolled the beau
ties of their policy and piled moun
tain high the promises of what they
were going to do; now they are prin
cipally occupied in denouncing the
deviltry of "trusts."
Their alleged argument is eminent
ly ridiculous when reduced to a logi
cal statement, viz: "Trusts" are a
great evil; this grgat evil exists un
der Protection; therefore Protection
is the cause of it, the Republican par
ty id the champion of Protection;
therefore the Republican party is the
friend and ui' of "trusts," If it could
once be shown tnat there were logi
cal connection in the nature of cause
and effect, between the system of
Protection and the existence of these
oppressive combinations, then the ar
gument would be powerful, if not
conclusive. But that there is any
such connection, never has been and
never can be shown.
It can be safely paid that there can
got be found a single friend of these
pools or combinations outside "of the
persons either directly or indirectly
interested in them. And sc far from
the friends of protection being by
that fact the allies of "trusts," it
ought to he plain to any reflecting
man that it is the Free Traders them
selves who occupy this unenviable
position. It is only within a very
few years since domestic competition
has become keen, producing lower
prices and narrower profits, that
"trusts" have been heard of it- this
country. This therefore must be the
condition of fade which induces their
formation; and the and for which they
are organized, viz; the elimination o!
competition and the keeping up or
prices and profits, proves that this is
so. But the proposition of the Free
Traders is to intensify competition,
•itver prices and decrease profits by
fotting the low juiced {,;oods of foreign
countries enter our ports unhampered,
thereby aggravating the conditions
which turn tueu'ti thought's to such
devices and causing the very evil at
which they rail so loudly to flourish
as vigorously as ever.
As showing the relative extent to
which tb?£o combinations flourish
under Protection or Trade, the
following extract from Mr. blainci;
Portland speech will' furnish an apt
conclusion to this article:
The point which I wish to impress
tipou JTOSJ ia that trusts are not the
outgrowth not in any way the inci
dent of the protective policy, us the
president charges; that a protective
policy no more breads what the Pres
ident considers the pestilence of trust 3
than does the veriest free trade coun
try in the world, which is England;
for England is literally plastered all
j oyer under her system of free trade,
with' trucw The very day before I
sailed for home, just a fortnight vtro,
I cut from a London journal the an
nouncement that all the manufactur
ers of coffins q.nd all the undertakers
of the United Kingdom had £oqe in
to a trust, that it was to consist of
£2,000,000 capital, which, in the lan
guage of the English financial mar
ket, was to have a large number of
"Preferential bonds," and that the
yearly death
to yield a semi annual dividend <>f )'•*
per cent. ,Vow I think, mv friends',
that uo far from the protective policy
generating trusts, KU uttur free trade
policy generates them in far greater
uuuiber and ihus I leave the quest
tion.

THE DUTY OF VETERANS
TO REMEMBER THE
LORD.
Extract from Ilio Memorial Ser
mon Delivered before the A.
Roeil Post ot the (J. A. R.,
in the First English Lutheran
Church, Hntler, Pa., May 27,
ISHH. by Iho Rev. D. Luther
Roth.
}V that hart' escaped the aword,
tfo niray, stand not still; re member
the Lord —Jer, f>l:so.
When your commanding officers
gave you tlie general order that you
are now obeying, to assemble this d ly
in the sanctuary, their action was
obedience to this injunction of the
Lord. By this assembly, you demon
strate that in the formal manner you
do remember the God of battles who
delivered you from a thousand dan
gers. And it is but meet and right
that you should show and declare
how great to you has been His mer
cy. Here you proclaim that you be
lieve it to be your simple duty, not
merely as men and Christians, but in
an e.-pecial manner and particularly
as survivors of a long and bloody
war, to remember the God whose
mercy preserved you. And with this
''duly of veterans to remember the
Lord " as our theme, let us consider
I. Why Veterans should remem
ber the Lord, and
11. How they should do it.
Aud in this may the Lord direct
us, by the Holy Spirit, for Jesus'
sake —Amen.
My bearers, tjje soldiers who have
gone through the scenes of carnage,
the storm of battle, camp fevers, hos
piials and prisons, and suryived
through all,know better than we,why
they ought never to forget the God
who kept them alive through all. The
horrors of war no tongue can teil.
Look how assidiously they began.
At first the men set forward in high
health and spirit, infantry, cavalry,
artillery undisciplined, well-fed, and
were organized to go into camp.
There all was noyelty the situation
was enchanting with its freedom from
the dull routine of the farm and shop
and store and school. All they saw
there was the glittering pomp and
circumstance of war. New uniforms,
bright weapons, streaming bauners,
music, no responsibility; aud all full
of hGalth and hope and gaiety. It
seemed a continual holiday. The
blunders on the parade ground and in
the drilling-camp, the quick, stern
disciplina, all were new, all strange,
all part of the experience that had to
be acquired. Ahd there they were
kept at it, drilling, drilling, until they
could ldltd with rapidity, fire with
precision, and keep step as one man.
And then away to lu« frci»t, where
they had been longing to go. But
then war took on another visage. Al
ready homesickness, dread nostalgia
was enervating them Army fare,
hard tack and bacon, was making the
boys wish for the soft bread and fresh
meat at home. Then fevers mysteri
ously laid hold of them in their camp.
Forced marches tired them out.
Sleeping on the ground in «I 1 sorts of
weather with little shelter undermin
ed their health. And thus it contin
ued untii one ciay the roup of battle
was upon them, "Beautiful fighting
all along the line"—screaming shells,
pattering bullets, whizzing shoo,
sffcuts of ofjjcers, falling comrades;
shrieks of the wounded and groans of
the dying; this was war in another
light. You veterans who have es
caped the sword do you remember ?
When you went for first time in
to battle the sanrfO njsn who thirty
days before were pushing the {:laae,
following the plow, measuring goods,
preparing briefs, c-mning your books
-e-tuat usy yci; had a revelation. You
were brave. No man doubts it. Wut
did you bravery save your lives that
day? No God did it. Remember
your obligation to Him—"remember
the Lord."
Any fcfter foijr years of aach scenea
where then was tue
cumstance of war? Those neat uni
furc;B cut, Boiled and torn; thowe
bright arum tmiteteci, tLotje streaming
regimental colors riddled with shot,
and those gallant ranks depleted.
Here is ihe showing: Company "A,"
after the battle of Malvern Hill —kiII-
I GU. iG; v/otjoded n-ortally, (»; serious
ly, 18; slightly, S: piison&rs, i», n.isi
-1; total casualties, 'il. That is the
way the reports came into the wait
ing friends at home. And many a
heart, in some peaibful cottage far
away frou} the BOijnd of cannonading,
broke as the names of tLo dead were
read, (jod knows, O soldiers, you
v/ero fjot the only snfferers in that
fateful conflict, iteruerabar tl;e f ord
who spared you; remember Him for
your own sake. Isut for the sake of
the dead, for your comrades' Bakes,
you ought to remember the Lord.
And here, with my whole soul, I can
join you rrje tell you why. I
go baclf into the days vhen the con
flict began,to a short history impress
ed jndelibly upon my memory It is
a sacred memory. This sacred place
this holy hour, are fitting to speak of
it.
My brother, tall, straight, am
bitious, nineteen years old, but in
every thing save years a man and a
noble one. home from school on a va
cation, cautiously aiinoipijies hjs in
tention to enter the army. J'is cau
tion was out of solicitude for mother,
that the full import o( the intelligence
might come gradually to her. And
when, with tears in her eyes, she pro
tested "You are too young," he told
ed ber in his arms aud answered
gaily, "Mother, what if they should
ail t»ay tliat ? I am not to yoyng to
defend my county." for a day the
preparations were in progress and
then he was away. A week more
and he was in camp, and then the
letters began to arrive, What a sad
intense interest was in them as hi;<
genius pictured tus and inci
dents, the hardships and trials of the
camp aud march Over and over
again, by every member of tho family
together, and by each one alone,thoso
letteps were read; and every morning
and eyening at family worship the
divine protection was implored upon
the absent one. Then the battle be
gan, He wae moved away to the
front T{je .ciegtaph dispatches were
read with constant dread. With fear
fid interest the lists of killed and
wounded were scanned and dire fore
bodings were upon all until again a
letter would arrive saying "All is,
well." At last the letters ceased. A
chilling presentiment fell on the
household. We spoke little and that
in whispers. And then the message
;:anie like a f|ush of Qod's wrath,
"Come at once, he cannot live long."
That day a brother started. The
next found him away down in Ken
tucky by the bedside of that noble
boy. The regiment had to move and
the sick were left behind with a de
tail to take care of tbeni. Thero be
joined him, and kneeling by hit» bide
that brother prayed. The lau, (liar
tones i'el! on J|iy ear. jle opened |ii«
eyes, closed thoui woanly and u4u*
in exhaustion. All that night the
brother kept Boleiuu vigil by hits side.
At day-break the dyinfc soldier boy
rallied. "Prop up my head," be whis
pered, "turn in? face toward the gun.
Let me look at him rising Before he
sets my last day will be done. O, my
brother, it is hard to die here, so far
from home, but I did it all lor liberty
and I'd do it Kiss the boys
for me, and father, and mother and
sisters, and promise me that you'!l
bury me in the graveyard at home
Don't bury me here —in the grave
yard at home." And ns he spoke the
golden bowl wa* broken, the silver
cml was loosed, the eyes closed, and
the spirit returned to the God who
£iive i'. That hopeful young life went
out with the words—u willing sacri
fice on the altar of our beloved coun
try,one of the thousands freely given.
Men and brethren,if ever the deeds
of mortal man merit perpetual remem
brance and warrant the belief of their
eternal existence, such sacrifices arid
such deeds, among the multiiude who
suffered, wrought and sacrificed, liv
ing or dying, for their native land,
undoubtedly deserve it. And it is
but a just and fitting tribute we offer
when we recall the memory of the
loved ones gone before and docorate
their graves with the blossoms aud
flowers which presage their more
glorious immortality. For this. I
BBy, with my whole soul. I join you
when you remember the Lord for
your dead comrades' sake. The per
sonal loss I suffered when my brother
died has given me a personal interest
and a personal sympathy which I
might not otherwise have so deeply
learned; and when I speak for you in
this I speak for myself. I remember
the Lord for my dear brother's sake,
and my remembrance of ilim is sweet
1 remember him with thanksgiviag
to-day for the shining example and
precious influence of the departed; for
the good deeds, the geuerous efforts
and the high aspirations which bis
life and death inspired. But beyond
all that, I thank llim for the blessed
hope of immortality and the glorious
anticipation of meeting with the loved
ones all again in heaven —a hope from
God alone, both sure and steadfast,
through Jeaus Christ, His sou.
There, veterans, "Ye that have es
caped the sword," there is the most
important reason why you ought, for
your departed comrades' sake, to re
member the Lord. By the revelation
of His love to us and His power over
death, as shown in Jesus Christ, we
have a hope withoijt which the fqture
would be a pitiless blank, the past a
ghastly mockery. But in the sweet
reasonableness of religion look at the
matter. God is love. He loves his
people all. And wherever that love
is reciprocated, by reason of the faith
that rests on Jesus Christ, His son,
there is a hope, the pledge ot which
is the God-man Jesus, that shall most
certainly become a giqrioi,3 reality.
Because of the resurrection of Jesus
we believe in the resurrection of the
dead. Our sorrow for their departure
from us is ever with us. We would
not forget it if we could. Their mem
ory in our hearts we hoid a hallowed
treasure. We miss them sorely, yet
in the blessed hope of the resurrec
tion we wait and are patient. Our
sorrow is dignified with that precious
hope. It lights up all the eternal
future with its calm radiance, and for
that tiope, my hearers, remember the
Lord aiid thank iiim for all your dead
who have died in the Lord.
Lot this, thou, be the answer to the
question, wny veterans should re
member God. First, for thoir own
sakes, because they have escaped the
sword. Second, tor their dead com
rades, because G>d has provided for
them a blessid resurrection condition
ed on just that one thing—;* saving
faith ill •K'sijs.
11. Now we inquire, how should
tlis remembrance of the Lord be
shown 9 J answer, irj the fust place
by accepting for yourselves the faith
in Jesus Christ which is the gift of
God to everyone who will receive it- 4
that faith in which there is salvation?
without which there is none. Old,
Soldiers, let me speak with voit most
tandidly. Jtou haye won earthly re
nown. When you die your graves
will be decked ou each memorial day
tyith the f*ir blossoms of soring, your
memory held in loving recollection
But will that bo sufficient for you ?
Will that fill futurity with glory for
you ? Will that satisfy your soul
with fullness ? God forbid. The
unreasoning flowers iaiu upon the
lowly in which your dust reposes will
be stark naught to you. Those who
live may bo made better bv the beau
tiful observance, but the dead know
nothing of it To the sleepers the
ijnow drifts and the daisies are alike.
To them nor dawn nor dusk,nor noon
nor night appear. They reck not of
wind or weather, »nd whether there
be flowers or thorns above their heads
they neither know nor care Hut
there is that which means to them
everything—that is their hope in
Jeans. For if they have indeed re-
the J.ord, in eiqcerjty and
in trijth, whijo iij this life, and gained
the assurance of salvation by faith in
the dear Redeemer, God will remem
ber thetj ( and pfown th:;nj with a
glory that is immortal.
Soldiers, your Grand Army is a
glorious order, but there is another
tar more glorious in which you should
enlist. This leads you to glory and
the grave; that to the general assem
hly and (jhurph of the tjrst-borq in
heaven. This is passiug away; that
ei|di)res forever. This may do for
this world, bijt that otters divine as:
surauce for the other world. This
is man's work, but that is the work of
Almighty God. Remember Him for
the place He has prepared for you
when the march of life is oyer,
whilo yojj iive here prepare to enter
the rest thero.
—Want of space and time prevented
us from giving attention to several
matters this week that we otherwise
would liked to have done. Among
then) were iwo gomtqtyulcatloqs.
