STATE. For State Treasurer, HEXRY K. BOYER. COCIfTT. For District Attorney, JAMES >*. MOORE. For County Surveyor, C. F. L. McQUISTION. THE first bill passed finally by the late legislature of this state, received the ap proval of Gov. Beaver on the 12th day of February, 1889; the pamphlet laws were not distributed to the Judges, the Justices of the Peace and to those attorneys and othera who had subscribed for them till the latter part of August. gome of the acta passed and signed at the beginning of the session repealed all acta and parts of acts inconsistent with them; ao it will be seen that for six months after these laws were passed the general public could not possibly know anything of them, and were still acting under laws that had been repealed or changed. This tu the case this year, and the same thing will happen every second year, unless some remedy be found for it. If people are to be expected to conform to laws they matt know what these laws are, but as the system of law making now stands, this is not always possible. Either the provis ions of all new and important laws ought to be published at once in one or more pa pen in each county in the state, or else no law passed by a legislature should go into effect until a certain date, fixed far enough ahead to allow of their printing and distri bution. Rain and Storm at Gettys burg. GrrrrißCio, Pa., Sept. 11.—The com plete success of to-day was drowned in a heavy rain, which set in from the east about 1 o'clock. An hour later bad been fixed for the dedication of monuments. The ceremonies were gone through, but the programs were curtailed very consid erably. This morning saw at least 40,000 strung art in Gettysburg. Where they were lodged or fed seems a mystery. Many be lated arrivals were noticed occupying door steps and chairs on the sidewalks. Provis ions grew alarmingly scarce until the morning trains brought in a fresh supply. ▲ high wind prevailed all forenoon,driving the limestone dust into eyes, ears and ■loath, and generally tending to make life scarce worth living. The dedicatory ser vices began early and lasted through wind rain, until long in the evening. Many organisations, being deterred by the storm from going on the field, held their ser vices in the town. Jcdob Phshivo, of Schuylkill county, ousted a school board of that county, lust weak, whose operations somewhat resem bled those of the Tweed ring. There were rii of them, and for months they failed to organise because they could not agree upon a division of the spoils. Then three of them quit, and the other three declaring the places ot the absent vacant, elected a fellow of their own way of thinking, which made four, a majority of the board. tTpon this being done they organized by electing a clerk at f3OO a y«*ar (who was to divide), and teachers at 975 a month (who were alao to divide) over schools contain ing fifteen to twenty-five scholars, and were to make a further division of SSO upon pretence of buying a blackboard. Af ter this was done, and the distribution of the boodle provided for, they fill ed the board by adding two more to their ■amber. But Judge Pershing spoiled the fan. Be has turned them out neck arid beels, and there is a possibility of their be- ing supplied with accomodations during the winter in the county jail. This WOK certainly a node! school, and the publicity with which they proposed the corrupt deal* doe* not speak well for the moral ■eaaibilitiea of the people of that part of B:haylkill county. The Presbytery of Butler. Ordained Mr. Jesse L. Cotton, Kept 'M, and initialled him as pastor of Ccntrerllle church, lie waa installed over North Lib erty church the neit day. CcUs for Iter. Henry G. Blayney from the churches of Uarriwville, New Hope and Pltiaut Valley were presented and read. Calls for Lewi* K. Keith, from the churches of Buffalo and Westmiustcr, were alao presented and read. All the calls are retained by Presbytery till iU aext meet lag, when it U expected that Messrs. Blay ney and Keith will be present. Calls for Francis A. Kern*. Licentiate, from the churches of Martinsburg. Petrol it, and Fair-view, were accepted by him, and he la to be ordained and initialled,iftlie way be clear, at Martinsburg, Tuesday, Oct. Bth, and installed at Petrol in on that •veiling, and at Kairview next forenoon. A conference on family religion will be held on the afternoon of Oct. Hth. at Mar tinsburg. The following delegates were appointed to attend Synod at AI toon*, IV, Oct. 17, vii:—ministers: Samuel Williams, A. M. Reed, Juliua Spencer and Jesse 1.. Cotton; ciders: J. K. IfcJunkin, Jno T. Ilinghum, R. I. Boggs, and Andrew Porter. The Presbytery accepted with thanks nn Invitation from Prof. Morrow, to visit the Blippery Rock Normal School and hnd the pleasure of meeting the teachers and pu pils at their usual morniug devotional ex eirises on Kept. 4th. J. It COCLTKR, Stated Clerk. TMKIK is no law on the books authoriz ing the Commissioners of a county to build 1 market house at the county seat, but we think there should be one passed. A market house on the east cud of the Ilia mond with a good cellar, in which to store lccd* of fruit and vegetables, for which the owners did not flud a market, would be a great convenience to fanner* living a distance oat of town. There is room enough on the Diamond for both a market bouse and the Soldiers' Monument, and fceth should be count/affairs. The Fair. If you're waking call me early" was the plaint in this county, last Tuesday night, for the morrow was first day of the Ilutler Fair, and all coming that day wanted to make an early start. And they did make an early start. By ten o'clock our streets wcro crowded with rig*, and the morning trains brought crowds of people. The Shenango train consisted of eight ears all crowded, and the trains on the P. /c W. and West Penn were similar in size and conditiou. What the number on the grounds was that afternoon pould not lie ascertained, but the receipts showed that it was larger than than of the same day of last year's exhibition, though the enlargment of the grounds did not make the increase distin guishable There was elbow room for everybody there that day and everything passed off without accident. The grand cavalcade of horses at 4 o'clock that afternoon was one of the prettiest sights for horsemen ever seen in the coun rerr'. —srTme magnificent animals were in line—large, powerful, well formed fellows, that are giving our county a reputation ! for good horses second to none. Our horses are improving from year to year. There were good exhibits of all the various strains of cattle, there were the Short-horns or Durhams, the Holsteins, the Devons and the Alderneys. Xone of the owners hap pened to be at the stalls when we called around, but we recognized Wittee's herd of handsome Holsteins, and the big fat steer said to weigh 2200, but probably weighing 1800 or 1900, attracted considerable atten tion. There was a good exhibit of pigs, and ' more intereSTTnis TateTy Been taken Tn trie breeding of these animals than heretofore. Mr. J. I'ark Hays of Prospect has a good ■strain, as have also Mr. J. L. Seaton, of Euclid and Mr. J. M Douthett of Browns dale, as has been noted in the columns of the CITIZEN in the past. Mr. Seaton of Euclid was the only one of the three at his stalls when we happened around and his Chester Whites looked very pretty. Mr. J. N. Maharg of Penn township had some thorough-bred China-Polands on ex hibition. The exhibit of sheep was one of the lar- | gest and best ever seen in the county, but that of poultry was not as large as usual. Fruit and vegetable hall has been re modeled and is now one of the most at tractive features of the fair. The centre has been arranged in pyramidieal form, crowned with tropical plants and surround ed with a wire fence. On one side were the displays of vegetables and grains which was very creditable, and on the other was that of fruits. Floral liall ait usual was the favorite place for the ladies. Flowers, paintings, quilts, embroidery, and what not were there in profusion. The novelty of the ex hibit, this year, was a display of examina tion papers, selected from every school in the county, and arranged for public in spection. It was a good idea—one that encourages scholars. Grieb <t Lamb displayed two of their magnificent Debr pianos. Zuvcr's exhibit of photographs and pictures was very creditable; Troutman had a splendid dis play of carpets and upholstery; Miller Bros, of furniture; Rosenberg of cloths; Black more «!• Grieb of shoes and slippers, and Mrs. I'ape of small goods. On the grounds Martincourt <t Co., bad a tent up under which they hail a display of everything that runt- on wheels aud run ners in every style and every finish. Shira, Shira <fc Hays displayed the Allen Washer and Prodigy Churn, in both of which they have lately made substantial improvements. An engine with belt and shaft attachment was keeping the agricul tural machinery in motion, the novelties on exhibit in which, were potato-diggers and planters, designed for horse-power. Two merry-go-rounds were doing an im mense business—the general run of people consider Fair day a holiday, and are out mora for fun than business. The female walking match is said to have been a dis gusting spectacle and a disgrace to the place. All the catch-pennies seemed to be do ing a go.>d business, also the Indian medi cine man and the lemonade stands. The restaurants did well, the ladies of the W. C. T. U., sold out entirely, and had to stock up that night. BASTIAS'S TAXIDKRMY. The best thing at. the Fair however, was Garvcy Haitian's display of stuffed animals and birds. He is a natural artist in taxi dermy, and some years ago began making a collection which hus now assumed such interest and proportions that he can well be proud of it. He has it arranged in the centre of a tent, on u mound in which is a hunter's cave aud its occupants, and some of the specimeus are so life-like as to, at first glance, be deceptive. THIBSIiAY Was the greatest day that Duller has ever seen. At least fifteen thousand persons were on the grounds, aud even with their additional ground the managers were put to their best to accommodate all the vehi cles that entered and feared they would have to close the. gates. The sun was hot aud towards evening the dust became al most unbearable. NOTES. Thomas Hays of Filrview had a herd of 13 registered Durhauis on exhibition, F.W. Wittee a herd of 15 registered IJolsteins, and J. C. Kelly u fine Holstein. James Wilson of Prospect had three reg istered Southdowns on exlhibition, E. A E.

Editor Citizkn: —This has been a de lightful day In North Washington. The weather has been specially favorable, and the people favorably disposed to take the loth of September as a holiday. So ac. cording to previous arrangements the Sab bath Schools of the town and neighbor hood assembled in Mr. K. Voruum's woods accompanied by the Farmiugton llrass Dand, being led by Mr. James Gibson, the Marshall of the Day. A programme was now gone through consisting of instrumental music, singing and addresses. After whi< It in companies of their own i boosing they dined and en joyed themselves without let or hindrance throughout the reinuiudcr of the day. We felt it good and pleasant to be there. Sincerely Tours, W. J. H. NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES. Thirty-five cases of typhoid fever are oil the daily diary of one Leechburg doctor The causo of this prevailment is applied to the bad sanitary condition of the town. I)r. Maharneke was arrested at his home in Pittsburgh, last Thursday night, for an alleged embezzlement in Cleveland. The officers found him secreted in the garret. Bamum's show will be in Xew Castle on the 2oth inst. Thieves broke into llarrv Flemm's resi dence in Freeport. one night last week and secured $25 in money. The occupants of the honse were not awakened. The school board of Barr township, Cambria county, lost their State appro priation amounting to about S4OO. because they did not obey the law in regard to teaching of physiology and hygiene in their schools. An unknown woman committed suicide at Niagara Falls last week by going over the falls, which leads to the conclusion that while the season for this sort of thing is rather backward, yet it will be lively considering that a woman is the first to do the jump. The old Erie Extension Canal, with all its appurtenances, from Erie to Beaver, was sold in Erie a few days ago, at Sheriff s sale, to satisfy a judgment of fifty thousand dollars. Col. J. Ross Thompson was the successful bidder, his bid being SO,OOO. The canal is now a dry ditch, and its ap purtenances are bullfrogs, mud. turtles and weeds. The whole indebtedness of the canal is said to be about two million dol lars. \ TTVery crttnr that i* ill Johnstown is found to contain one or more bodies. Prospect and Vicinity.

Kelly, Jay O. I)odds and T. 11. lioehm, took in the Youngstown Fair last week. They report an excellent time. That the directors of Franklin township, have difficulty in getting suitable teachers for their schools. The practice ol dividing the school year into two terms —4 months and 2 months, and paying S3O for the former and only S2O per month for the latter, has a tendency of sending good teachers elsewhere. That C. F. Newman, who has been afflicted with ticdouloureux of the face, is improving under Doc. McConncll's care. That the sudden and unexpected death of Miss Maggie Riddle, was a sad blow to her parents and relatives. It is another proof of the old warning and eantion, "We know not the day and the hour," etc. Doctor Thompson, of Troutman, has bought out the interests of Doc. Kelty and will soon move here. Doc. Kelty talks of locating in Butler. . OPTIMIST. Portersville. Ksq., John Humphrey, has in process of erection, a very fine and commodious dwelling house which he expects to occupy in a short time. E.

Two of the 11 at field gang of Eastern Kentucky were sent to prison for life, last Friday, for murdering the McCoys. This is the first instance of the legal meting out of punishment for their crimes in the his tory of the feud, and will no doubt have a quieting effect upon them. No man but a total abstainer is allowed, under the law of Michigan, to be employed as engineer, train dispatcher, fireman, brakeman, or other railroad servant. Any railroad violating this law incurs a fine of five hundred dollars for each offense. Hv the explosion of a cartridge factory at Antwerp, Europe, last Friday,'2oopersons were killed, 000 injured.
