P*embe*t Hakrisox asked the two members of the senate of this state who called upon him for an office, if there were any Repubhcana left in Pennsylvania. Our answer ia, yea, the homes of Pennsyl vania are full of Republicans, good and honest IS'-publican*. but»every man who puts his head up for office is terrorized, and every man we send to Harris burg is hoodooed by some mysterious power, and then the Lord only knows what they are. Death of the Election Bill. A dispatch from Washftigton dated last Monday said. The anti-Election bill peo ple have just lacked one vote of having a majority, and to-day, when they counted none*, it was found that the missing vote had turned up. Senator Morgan was in the; midst of his speech on the cloture rule -her. Mr. Walcott asked hiin to yield the floor for the purpose of calling up the Ap portion? Nt bill. Mr. Morgan, knowing that this meant the shelving of the Cloture rule and the Elections bill, yielded with great alacrity. The vote revealed that the parties were almoat evenly matched, ex cept that the Democrats and apostates had one majority. Mr. Waicott mored to proceed to the consideration of the Apportionment bill. Mr Ilolph moved to lay the motion on the 'able, and the motion was rejected, amid much applanse-yeas, 34 nay* 35. (sector Cameron, Jones (of Nevada). Stev ~t. Teller. Washburn and Walcott voted with the Democrats, and Mr. Ingalls wa- . tired with Mr. Sanders. The rota was taken on Mr. Walcott'* motion to take up the Apportionment bill, and it was carried-yeas 35. nays 34. The move waa certainly a surprise to the Republicans as Senator Aldnch was calculating on securing a vote on the Cloture rule to-morrow. The silver Rep el, -ans stuck together on the vote. Sen ators Teller, Wolcott Stewart. Jones, XT .i-!ibura and Cameron were the half doz en I'-publicans who again thwarted the w -1) ■ r the party. Senator Cameron was the <".< lone Eastern Uepnblican who Hood with the Democrat.", rri . i -ting the question afterward be . -i to considered the apportionment of vital importance, as it gave to the Repub lican party ten or 12 more eleclorial votes in l -!'2. lie thought it paramount in im iiiirtnice to the Cloture rule or the Elec lion* bill. The scene in the House when it was learned that the Elections bill bad been tsw ki d, was wild beyond description. Ti blatant, brutal Rogers, of Arkansas, urging a trumpet of bi« bands, yelled: " Mr. Speaker, the Force bill is defeated in the Senate!" iu an instant all the Democrats were on r feet bowling and giving vent to the oid rebel yell, while they tossed books and :ier t in the air ia the exuberence of their Mr. Hatch, of Missouri, moved that ;er proceedings uudei the rollcall IN. misrepresented the will and sentiment ol the RepublicansotPennsylvania. lean i.i/t but 'eel, as one ol that great party to which Mr. Cameron ostensibly belongs, that be baa proved a traitor to ita ln terr it and in all decency he should resign and vacate his seat. The whole Penn sylvania Republican delegation in the Honse, twenty-one in number, voted for tbo Election bill, and today they bong their heads in shame when the vote of tbe senior Senator from tbe State decided the fate of tbe measure. M enure. Bayne, Pife, Be ran ton, Darling ton and Osborne expressed the same views. |I Sen ate announced his committers, Monday, am! Senator Bhowalter is chairman of the committee on Public Health and Kanita tioo, and a member of those on Appropri ations, federal Relations, Constitutional He form, and Library.

A ti patch from Harrisburg dated last Tuesday naid: Si- i. ."or* Williamson and Wood were in Wiii to-day and bring back to-night a ; . iformation of tbe auger of the Pre : lent. They were iu quest of an appointment for a mutual friend. Their Congo."-man is Mr. Atkinson, and with b '!.ey first called on Postmaster General V. . , imaker. Then tbe party started for the White House and the Postmaster 0-ueral telephoned in advance that they were on tbe way. When they arrived they were ushered into tbe presence of the President, but their reception was nothing short of insulting. President Harrison did ii' • .hold out bis band as Congression At kin on presented tbe Pennsylvania State Her looked angry and exclaimed: 1 .re there no Republicans left the Pi ylvanin Legislature!" t-e-,..t0r Williamson, the elder oftho two, w first much abashed, but recovering tin rll' aid: "Mr. Praelderit, had we kni».'- n In lore tbe election what we do now tin- ii lit would have Iteeu different." knew enough!" exclaimed the Pr .t.

If I ev like a shenp-thirf. It ia now. They nay • .on sold hlspsrty for thirty pieces ol -r. 1 wish I was out ol Congress and hack in the Slate Senate." The Silver BUI. Week before la«t the United Suus Sen ate parsed what is called the Free Coinage or rilver bill, the gist of which is as fol lows: Section 1. provides for the coinage of dollars of 4124 grains of silver,or 25 &-10ths jsraiiw of gold, the same to be legal tender for all debts, public and private; and that the owner of any silver or gold bullion can deposit the same at any mint of the Unit ed States, the same to be coined for him free of charge. Sec. 2, revive* acd continue* part of the old law regarding silver certificates. Sec. 3, makes the certificates redeemable in coin, Sec. 4, makes the certificates a legal tender, and See. 5, gives the owners of de posited bullion the option of taking coin or certificates in exchange for it. The first section places the ratio"of gold to silver at 1 to 16, whereas in the market it U about 1 to 20, and this would make the silver dollar worth about 80 cents, as compared to a gold dollar, and as the coin age provided for includes the silver of the world—an amendment restricting it to the product of our own mines, having been defeated —and as it means a practically un limited and free coinage of such silver dol; lara, making the United States a forced buyer of all the silver bullion in the world at an advanced price, it sun is to reason that gold would be driven out of circula tion in this country, that silver would ap preciate in value here, and that the busi ness of the country would have to be plac ed on a new basis. The Western Senators, in their argu ments for the bill, said it would help the Western farmers, but as it does not and cannot change real values, as no man can secure money without giving an equivalent for it, and as it would be no easier for any man to secure ten dollars worth 80 cent* each than eight dollars worth 100 cents each, we fail to see any truth in their ar guments. Many good reasons are given against tbe bill, but we have yet to hear or read one sensible argument in its favor. Study it as you may, and you will see nothing in it but a tremendous speculation for tbe owners of tbe silver mines, and persons wbo bought silver bullion expect ing a raise in its value. All tbe Republican members of the Sen ate, representing States east of the Missou ri river voted against the bill, excepting Mr. Cameron of thia State. Then a news paper correspondent, from some reliable information.be bad received, charged that certain Senators and members were per sonally interested in the success of the bill. An investigation followed, and the very first man caught is our own dear Sen ator Cameron. It was proved before the committee that while the bill was pending before tbe Senite, he purchased 100,000 ounces of Calcutta silver, and be has him self acknowledged the evidence to hp cor rect. This exposure is on u par with that of the army contractu of 1861, and it again demonstrates the principle* of the prlest of the "machine" of thin State arid also those of the gentleman in holy writ, who sold his Master for the thirty pieces of silver. On Monday of thin week Senator Cam eron by again voting with the Democrat.* tnrneJ the scale against the proposed Clotnre rule, thereby shelving the Election bill, which he had promised to support at Harrisburg, and if be is not deliberately stabbing the party that ban honored biui and hi* father with one of the highest office* in its gift for over a quarter of a century, hi* action* greatly belie him. Quay made enough trouble for us, but this fellow seems to be utterly void of all principle, shame or gTatitude. And wliat are we going to do about it? Next jear we again nominate candidate* for Assem bly and State Senate, and let your ques tion tc ;very aspirant for legislative hon ors be "Who and what are you fort'' let o* make one more effort to rid the party in the State of a *y»tem of politic* that i* a disgrace to us and has bronght us into re proach all over the continent. The politic* of the State and Country will shape themselves during the year, so that we will know what to do, and in tbr meantime it would please 99 out of every 100 Republicans in the State if President Har rison would take the beads off those Feder al office holders who aided *o materially in securing Cameron'* re-election. Uis re sentment. a* shown to the two State Sena tors who called upon him to secure an ap pointment was just and righteous and a con tinuance of the same will be unanimously approved of by the rank and file of the Re publican party ol the State. Press Opinions. A betrayed cau*e —Mr. Cameron has si* year*.—Pittsburg Time,*. Senator Cameron's explanation of his silver speculation is a virtual confession that he traded on hi* knowledge or belief that the price of the metal would be en hanced by the pas/age of the Silver bill.— Pittsburg Telegraph. Senator Cameron not onlv gave bis own testimony in support of the charge that be lias been speculating in silver while pro moting legislation to enbanco its market value at the expense of the Government, but be also showed by hi* action in the Senate that he i* still in firm adherence to the combination between the silver ring and the Democrats. The motion involved the fate of the closure rule and the Fed eral Elections bill, and in the division Senator Cameron definitely took hi* posi tion on the Democratic side,—Pittsburg Gazette. Like master, like man. J. Donald Cameron has no opinions concerning legis lation to express at Washington; those who have re-elected birn Senator have no views for publication regarding bis silver invest ments.—Phil'a Pre**. It is a humiliating thought that Penn sylvania munt, for a full Senatorial term continue to be misrepresented by a man who is so indifferent to the sentiment of his constituents; who so fur forgets the de cency rad obligation of bis positlou u* to make merchandise of hi* vote and spec ulate on the results of bis official action; who has no qualities which lend strength to the Republican party, credit to the State, honor to himself or assistance to hi* associate* in party councils.—Erie /'<* patch. Perhaps Don Cameron did nothing wrong when he speculated in silver, but in that case why did he want the fact kept a secret until he bad been re-elected Sena tort—Kansas City Time*. Unless Wenator Cameron can contradict Dialer's testimony, the Pennsylvania boss should be a* unanimously expelled from the Senate as he was recently elected to it. For a Senator to make his vote on a pub lic measure an aid to a private speculation of bis own 1* a shame too intolerab'e for any honorable legislative body to endure. The man who does such a thing is dis graced as surely and scandalously as if he had accepted a direct bribe in money.— X. y. Ifnrht. Mt. Chestnut Items.

Recollections of Butler; or Fifty Years Ago. (Comtimmed.) DOROAL LOTS. ED. CITIZES: —The two lots of the late Mr. David Dongal are so well-known to even our present citizens as to be easily located. The rapid change that has come over them within the past few years is a subject of general remark. When Mr. Dougal died, but a little over nine years ago, they were covered with small frame buildings, generally called "shanties. Now they are covered with some of the largest and finest brick buildings in the town. Mr. Dougal bought them at the original -ale of loU in Butler. 1803, and held on to them to his death. Nov. 8. 1881. No change of ownership in them took place in all this time, which, perhaps, cannot be lai 1 of any < thorof the original lots of Butler. Mr. Dougal in this respect may be said to have been the nearest —or latest—connect ing link between the present and the original town. Certainly no one survives him in this respect. He waif the last of the very early and first citizens. The new brick Scbenck block stands upon the Diamond end of one of these lots. This was lot No. 1 in the original plan of lots and is said to have been bid in by Mr. Dougal at the sum of ?100. Now it is probable that *20,000 could be got for it if without a building on it, and with its present half dozen or more new large bricks its aggregate value now would exceed *CX),OoO. The first building we recollect of seeing where Schenck one now stands was a low irame, on corner, said to have been erected by the late John and Peter DufTy as their first store house in BQtler here we might remark that the hou-es upon Mr. Dougal's lots were generally built by others, and not by him, as is very generally supposed. They were built by persons to whom he gave ground lea.-es and who no doubt at the time were glad to get the privilege to build under a lea.-e. Mr. Dougal built but little himself. This -mall frame on corner in time gave way to a larger log-frame, erected for a public house and used as such for a number of years and by different parties, among them Michael Spohn and a man named Kobi i-on. Our present Mr. illiarn Kichey kept a restaurant and lived there for some years. It was also often used by attorneys ior law offices. The late Edward M. Bredin, Esq., had his office there at one time; al-o the late John Graham, Esq., and others. Mr. Pringle was there for a while, and the last store there we believe was that of Mr. Elias Kirk. Before one of its tenants of about 40 years ago bad left it he had papered one of its rough-boarded rooms with common wall paper, and, to illustrate Mr. Dougal's idea of improve ments, he refused to let it be used for a postoffice, saying, with some indignation, to a newly appointed postmaster who ap plied to bitn to rent it, ' Sir, do you think I am a fool to let that fine room be de stri»3'ed by a postoffice.' That settled it, and the new postmaster, the late Mr. Daniel Coll, had to look elsewhere for au office. Xext to tbi» last was a small frame; and next to lliat and where our present post ullice now stand*, Dr. livers' building, was another small frame, erected by tlie late Mr. Clark McPberrin, already referred to. for his store room, more than fifty years ago. Mr. McPberrin had lost both ol his legs, at the knees, and notwithstanding this made biui very short in stature he moved about without crutches of any kind ami with much rapidity, lie was an ac tive business man and prominent in all good works. Several followed him in this house he built, among the first being the late Jacob Ziegler and James McGlaughlm with the bimo'iatir Herald, where that paper, in 1842, was first established and published. Mr. McGlaugblin having been elected Protbonotary of the county in 1545, the //- raid v a-continued there by a com pany for two or three years, headed by the late .Samuel (i. l'urvis, ivsq., father ol the present l'urvis men. After this Mr. Mc tilaughliu again, in connection with the lata Mr. Cornelius Coll, published the Herald tii'Te for a time. This Chirk Mc- Pherrin building was also used as the post office at otic time, and had for ils tenants various other person* for various other ob jects, u-itil Ur. lt>cr.4 became owner of the ground and erei ted bin line building there. Where Mr. Urmidoii's law oftice now ; h, lower part of Dr. liyers' building, flood a rjueetly constructed house, lived in, among other . for some 3 ears by the lute Mr. Thaddeu* Niggle, father of the present Niggle men, who carried on there a bakery and candy imp. This house, li!:e some others on Mr. DoCgal's lots, hud but one chimney in it, built in the center of the bouse, with a lire place 011 every side to accommodate all its rooms. Where the I'.aijU printing office now -taudK a frame one tood, lined often as a dwelling, tailor shop, and other purposes. Where William A. Forquer, Esq., baa uow his inbrick r< oilence and ofDce stood u frame, in which Mr. Dougal sUyed and had his office for many years pre\ ious to his going acro»,s the street to the one he afterward t occupied. In this houno Mr. Dougal would often receive his Pittsburg friends,the lute Judges Wilson Mi-C'andlem and William H, McClure, HOU. in-law of Mrs. Collins,lor whoxe lands in this county Mr. Dougal was the agent. They came nearly every summer,notifying Mr. Dougal in advance of their coining and who on these occasions would spruce up a little in his dre«4 in order to properly receive tin in. They hud unlimited confidence in and ad miration for Mr. Dougal aud liked to enjoy h IM company at. all times possible. OTIIKtt I,<>T. K crows the t-trcet «H the other Dougal lot, on which perhaps were more of the no called shanticM than the other, until a dis a-lrous fire, in 18fi4, burned down ull on the lower end and to the Vogeley alley. This lot. wa No. iu the, plan of original lot- On it* Diamond end, where now nlandft the new and fine brick block of the M'-.-r*. Hu-eHon and Anderson, was the Irani'- lore erected, about 1534, by the late William S. and Henry X. Boyd. Thiswa Mr William S. Boyd's first venture iu But |er. With his brother Henry, until the latter died, he kept, there > grocery and restaurant, lie prospered rapidly in husi lo--and finally bought and removed his tore down to corner of Main and Jefferson Siri i ts, building there, about 1850, the brick now a part of the George Keilier building;. Mr. lioyd was a very enter pri-iug man and did much for Butler, lie spent tiis latter years in laying out, IS7'J, and improving present Hpringdale, a part of his then farm, and alt who knew him will feel regret that fin did not live to wit lies* the great growth and present propor tion of that part of our present town that he linik so inu.-b internal in advancing. He died iu ISM. Numerous persons occupied afterward* the houiie ho built on the Dougal corner, for tore aud other pur pones, the late Mr. Hamuel Sykes and family being among the last there. On the Diamond and where now i* rear end of liuselton building stood a small tailor shop that we think near every tailor iu or about town had h s hbop at one time. The late Andrew (.'nrties, ex-Sheriff, elected in IS4H, had his tailor shop there. Before this Sheriff ('arm i was also engaged in the mercantile liusinesa, in the Iloyd store, and probably in connection with Mr. Boyd for a time. The late James (ilcnn, Esq., alco had hitailor shop there, about 1H52, which lie earried on in connection with tho office of Ju.uce of the Peace w'.ich ho then hold. Mr. Glcnu was tho falber of the pre "-lit (il. uizena. On ilaiu Street, aud where now Is the fine and just new brick of Mr. J. F. Shaffer, stood the celebrated little shanty u«ed to , long as a -'Squire*" Office." Within our j recollection the late Samuel G. Puros, Esq.. had bis J notice'* office there, com- j mencing with his first election, IMS. and i re-elected in 1 SSO. 1 1 S4> l and 1865. lie j must have had hi> office there about 2" , rears, doing a great deal ot business. He resigned the office souie years before he died, in 1*79. The late J. G Muotz, Esq , also had his Justice'! office there, being first elected in 1871. Mid then again 1*7(5. He also did a laree as Justice in this office, and was regarded by all as a very correct and efficient magistrate. Previous tn this, 1HIW«, the present William S. Ziegler. K-q„ and others may have had their offices there. Mr. Muntz j died April 12. lfo«. He was followed by the present Lewis P. ' alker, Esq.. who had his Justice's office there until he re moved it to the Brady building and from there to present Forquer one. The next to this »nd where present I. J. McCandlestr fine brick now stands was the small, narrow frame in which Mr. Dougal lived from the time he crossed over the street, spoken of. Here Mr. Dougal had his office and lodged for about 30 years, and until he went out to his farm in Summit Twp., ISTDor ISSO, and where he died, Nov. 8, 1881. Much that has been said and written about this office ot Mr. Dougal, and bis habits there, we think, does him great injuitice. It was not the most cleanly plac. and might have been called somewhat dirty, or dusty rather, at times, but to say tkat anything like bad odors came from it, we think, is not correct. And Mr. Dougal. while careless and indifferent aa to bi> dress, was by no means a dirty man in his habits. His fur niture in his room waivery scant, a,.d his books, maps and papers, although very valuable, were in his late days often laying around Ta'.bcr loose and dusty. But his bed was the only real novelty. For some reason he discarded t*e .common bedstead and in place thereof ®<*de one for himself. This consisted, at head and foot, of some old chairs or boxes, .-tretcbing from which were poles or what looked like common fence rails. Upon these he Lad two large fer.tber beds, between which he slept. If not the most cleanly locking at all times they doubtless were very comfortable. Why lie used such a l*d is a question, but, we think, the real solltion of it is that he wanted a solid, unyielding bottom to his bed. It is well-known that the old bed cords—ropes—would •ink in time, or often get loose, and Mr. Dougal, may be, did not fancy being ,urded out among hi* many tenant*,many ol in that way paying their rent. The next, and *here tbe New York Bazaar building now tands, was a queerly constructed low brick, in which Mr. James A. Shanor bad his shoe and candy shop for quite a time. It was shed-like in shape and built by Mr. Dongal from the brick gathered up and remaining from the great fire, 1804, that bum', down all bis build ings from there down to \ ogeley alley. The buildings burned by that fire stood where the Bazaar, Mrs. Gilkey and the present Ketterer ine buildings now stand. They were frame and occupied for offices, -bops, etc. One, the lower one, was where the Repository newspaper was la.-t publish ed, by the late David Shannon, John Little and Joseph McMurtrie. The Ueponilory C'j-'-d its existence there and with them, Esq., bad the postoflice there when he was postmaster, 1848. Tbe late Mr. George Miller, father of Harvey and brothers, had his cabinet making salesroom there about iho time it was burnt down. No buildings were erected on this burnt district, except the James Shanor one, until the present one* recently erected by Mr. K"tterer and the late Mrs Gilkey. Jan'y 29, 1891. J. H. N.
