The Republican voters ol Butler county will meet at their respective polling places on Saturday, May 23, 1891, between 1 and 7 o'clock P.M., for tho purpose of nominat ing one candidate for the office of Jury Commissioner, and to elect two delegates to the State Convention and one person for Return Judge. The Return Judges so elected will meet in Butler on Monday, May 25, at 1 o'clock P.M.; to cast a vote and declare the result. Said election to be held under the rules and regulations governing the Republican pri maries. S. H. Hcsblton, Chairman Co. Com. E. E. Gbaham, J s • T. M. Bakkr, f Thb Republican primaries for this county will bo held on the afternoon of Saturday, the 23d inst., and although there arc several announcements for Jury Com missioner, there arc as yet, none for Dele gates to the State Convention. The party organization in this State is not,at present, in good shape. Th-; election foi Governor went against cs last fall, and that result was principally duo to the reckless and un principled methods taken by State Chair man Andrews, aided by our two U. P. Senators, to noininato Mr. Delamater. A State organization of a higher standard is needed; the rural districts can, by acting together, control the matter, and we hope Butler county will do her duty. The dele gates «honld be ir.en of some acquaintance over the State, and who are pposed to the use of Federal patronage in the making of State nominations. The U. S..Counsul at Odessa, Russia, now home on a visit, thinks there is going to be a big war in urope soon, and that Russia intends gobbling Turkey. AT Caldera bay, Chili, April 23d, a large war ship was sunk by a torpedo, and two hundred men perished. Jon* H. Keahax, ofTexas has resigned his seat in toe U. S.

A Titkm k Knot's fight is being made on tbo new tax bill, now under consideration by tho. Finance Committee oi the Mate Seuate. The corporations are fighting it, and so aro tbo manufacturers. The bill, itself, is a "step in the right direction," as wo have heard said, but it is such a rolum luous affair thst it may sink of its own weight like tho Burdick bill. It occupies seventeen pages of tho House File, and tho greater part of it is classification and specification. We think that corporate property should pay its share of tba local taxes, and as far as real estate is concerned we cannot see why a short sentence like this, "Be it enacted, etc., that from and after Jan. Ist, 1802, all real estate in this Commonwealth (excepting public proper ty) shall be equally assessed .and equally taxed for all local purposes." The Con stitution forbids the exemption of any properties, excepting public properties, churches, cemeteries not held for private profit, and such like, and annuls any law excepting any other, so a law taxing per sonal property and not taxing it all, would have to bo specific and even then it would not fulfill the intent of tho framers of the Statu Constitution. It's a question whether it would bo good policy to tax machinery of any kind, and a tax on house hold furnituro would be a nuisance, but the real estate ol corporations can easily be got at, and if it were taxed for local purposes, and the whole tax in each county covered into the county treasuries for a road fund, and tho County Commissioners given authority to uso it in building a few miles of good road each year, another "step in the right direction" would be takeu, and the railroad companies would, in course of time, get their money back. Thb Presidential party arrived at Han Francisco last Saturday evening and was given a magnificent reception. They took a rest there, bad a steamboat excursion and saw the warship Monterey launched.

The Supremo Court of Indiana has just decided a novel case and established a pre cedent. A farmer in lie Kalb county sued the I.ake Shore railroad for killing his cow. Ihe cow caused a trilling railroad wreck, and the court decided that the owner of the cow should pay the railroad damage-. An appeal was taken, but Hie decision is affirmed. Instead of getting damages the farmer bears the los* of his cow, hns to pay for injury to rolling stock and settle the cost amounting to ill,ooo. The railroad claimed and maintained that the running of the cow on the track was the result of criminal carelessness on the part of the farmer. Tni; 8.

Mirror says a sensible proposition is made by several exchanges that Krie, Crawford, Warren and Venango unite in building a work house for the in carceration of tramps, with a view of dis couraging the presence of these gentry in this portion of the State. No radical so lution of the tramp question can be attain edjwithout a similar action in cases of va grancy by a considerable portion of territo ry and in every part of such territory This is one of the advantages of a joint work bouse, which could also undoubtedly be more economically run on a large scale. A work house is not needed alone lor tramps, but minor offenders, "drunks" and th«* like. If a workhouse docs not prove a preventive of drunkenness or vagrancy, it would at least make the offender sell sup porting, and the plan might be a good one for the County Commissioners to consider A few days ago, wbilo mou were engau ed iu the saw mill at the Anderson place, near New Wilmington, the sawyer noticed a strange noise coining Irom the center ot an apparently sound log as the saw cut through.

We've lots of good things for you this season in fine foot-wear. Our Spring Stock sparkles with advantages to you. Ladies' Fine Shoes—fine and pretly styles at sl, $1.25; grand at $1 50; extra fine at $2, $2.50 and np. are worth what we ask for them; but we don't say this or that shoe is worth $4 and selling at #2.50; this is an oid chestnut. Our $2 shoe is finer and better in every way than these so-called marked down shoes at $2.50 It is a dishonest business and an imposition on the public. Ladies' Lace Shoes—Patent Tips, Cloth Tops; also Button Shoes with I'lotb Tops on opera and common sense lasts are quite the style. Patent Calf Dobgola Top is a pretty new shoe we are showing. Some of these have patent calf quarters. Our stock of Ladies' Low-cut Shoes and Slippers cau't be equalled. An endless variety of styles and prices lrom 25c., 50c , sl, $1.25 and up. Spring Heel Shoes for Ladies and Children in Button Boots and Low- Cut Shoes from 50c., 75c.. sl, and sl-25; infants' at 25c, 50c., and 75c.; elegant styles and best of goods. Men's aud Boys'Shoes—ln this line as in all others-we double discount tbcm all. See our Men's Veal Congress, stylish at sl, sizes 6-11; then take a look at those tine lines at *1.25, $1.50, $2 and $2.50. You never saw their equal. They are made to my order by the best manufacturers in this country. See our Men's English Cordovan Kangaroo Casco Calf, mado on all the improved lasts, plain and tip, all widths. Look at our immense stock of Brogans, Plow Shoes, Creednioor's Box- Toe Shoes at sl, $1 25, and $1 50. They are dandies; no foolishness by tell ing you this shoe was sold for $2.75, but will sell it to you for $2, but will sell you a better one at the small turn of $1.50. These prices and the fine styles are leading the trade, and leading lots of customers to our store everv day. Don't fail to come in and see ns. We will iuterest you. B. C. HUSELTON, 102 N.
