The Commercial Gazette publishes
tide on the political condition of the Twen
ty fifth Congressional District, in which it
says that an effort is being made to com
pose the nnfortoliate difference in the re
publican party, growing ont of the heated
campaign of last fall. It quotes Marsh al
Harrah as stating that it is his belief that
' the bribery cases against Tate, and Down
ing and Shaffer will be nolprossed at the
next Court, which the Commercial Gazette
states, will be the first step towards re
newed harmony. In our opinion the first
and most important step is to take early
action on the system of making nomina
tions. The present plan is a vicious one,
well adapted to breed discords and disas
ters. It would destroy harmony in any
majority district in two years.
Our only hope is to have it changed.
What shall we bare in its placet There is
almost a universal demand for tbe popular
plurality system like what is already in use
in the several comities for the nomination
«if candidates. This plan, a plurality vote,
is the same as that required to elect, and if
it works well for tbe final, more important
act, it ought to be sufficient for the nomi
nation. Republicans, if yon want harmony
begin at tbe root of the evil and you will
obtain it, but if you go on with the rotten
conferee system, diminished or increased,
yon may patch np a make shift compro
mise and yon may not, but you will never
restore harmony and your nominations will
never be free of the suspicion of bargains.
G ire the people a chance to nominate,
witbont any go-betweens or playing with
loaded dice, then there can be no use for
bolting. When a nomination has been
fairly secured that will be the end of all
factional opposition.—Beaver Argiis ami
Radical.
AT Clereland, Wednesday, the Ohio
Democratic State Convention nominated
James E. Campbell of Butler, 0., for Gov
ernor on a free silver or unlimited coinage
platform, which will cause the election in
that State to be one of National importance
this year.
DB. MCKIJTVEY of Beaver county is
qneted as saying that the fisb he was after
has escaped and therefore he is willing to
drop tbe proseention of Tate, Shaffer and
Downing if they pay the costs. The three
men refused to testify against W. D. Wal
lace, Esq., were seat to jail for contempt
of Court, and the case went to tbe Supreme
Court and is yet there.
TUB Democratic State Convention will
be held at Barrisborg, on Thursday, Sept.

Lcasureville Items.
To write or not to write, that is tbe ques
tion;
Whether tis prudent, wise or best,
For me to answer the Editor's request
For local correspondence, or better at the
very start
To nip titis budding aspiration centering
in my heart.
Of falling into line aud marching with the
rank and file
Of those who write—Some from motives
hardly understood,
Some for profit, pleasure or the public
good;
For it remains an unchallenged, undisput
ed fact
That it requires observation, talent, skill
and tact
To write down in a clear, concise and
pleasing way
The news and happenings of the day.
But I shall give way to the impulse to write
of Leasureville,
Although lacking the necessary talent,tact
ana skill;
For if we never try then bow shall we suc
ceed,
And if there's nothing written how shall
others readT
There's nothing wildly funny to make your
readers laugh,
And they'll bare to search for grain* of
sense in tbe midst of all this chaff.
For newsy items are not plenty as blos
soms on a tree,
For tbe roralltes are basy as ruralites alone
can be.
The men are working at their grain, tbe
women canning cherries,
Sweltering, stewing o'er.tbe stove, jamming
up raspberries.
Tbe different wells on different farms are
drilling right along,
Aud the bills aud woods re-echo to the
sledges merry song;
But what tbe indications are for either oil
or gas,
T really cannot say and will let the subject
pass.
Miss Annie Beckett has but lately closed a
two months term of school
At School Bouse No. 2, where I suppose,
with gentle rule,
She taught the young idea how to shoot.
Conquering oft times tbe desire which
comes to marm and pedagogue alike,
To shoot the young idea and go off on a
strike.
Mrs. 0. S. June of Butler, visited, last
week, in I^easureville.
And Mrs, M. J. Kepple at ber mother's
home Is lying very ill.
Charlie Measure of McKeesport.who stands
high in his class,
Is staying at bis grandpas, till tbe summer
months shall pass.
The air is hazy, sky is murky, showing
signs of rain, ,
J. J. Ilesselgesser and sons are hauling in
their grain.
D. C, Kirkland, now at home, a sapling
swing baa made,
A cool retreat from summer heat swinging
iu tbe shade.
Found—by J. P. Morebead on Monday
morning last
A Hymn Book, lost the nigbt before, by
the man who drives so last.
The owner can obUtn the book by calling
on tbe finder.
So wo will drop the subject now, perhaps
it would be kinder.
As times are dull and items scarce we with
tbis final rhyme
Will say good night and hope to write more
at another time.

Inportant To Collectors of Taxes.
The following act of Assembly which
passed the Legislature at its last session is
one.of importance to all Collectors of Taxes.
The idea has heretofore prevailed among
Collectors in this county that Ihey bad two
years in which to settle their duplicates,
and some of them have believed that they
were not reqnired to pay over a cent until
the expiration of the two years. It is very
likely tbat the following amendments to
the act of 1885 were passed for the purpose
of correcting that impression. At all
events Collectors will now understand how
long they can hold public money in their
hands.
AS ACT
To amend section nine of an act approv
ed the twenty fifth dav of June one thous

"An act regulating the collection of taxes

have arouud the house.
John Clark, of Pittsburg, is the richest
colored man in Pennsylvania, if the assess
! ors are correct. Twenty years ago he be
| gan life as a blacksmith, and has since
I then hammered out a $200,000 fortune. Clark
solved his share in the negro problem by
the simple remedy of hard work.
Four boys of Itirdseye, Ind., found an
old coat near the railroad, and began toss
ing it about and beating each other with it.
A bank note sipped from beneath one of
the patches. The boys ripped the coat to
pieces, and it panned out sl7ll.
Laura, nineteen months oid daughter of

The Third Commandment is having a
sain tar; b«,..m in Oil City. The other day
Jacob Goid f i i merchant, was arrested

The Third is all right in Oil City, even if
there isn't much doing there in the balance

It is "with an apparent feeling akin to
'ghoulish glee' " that we note tbe (Jreen
ville News' explanation of the farmer Mi
zener bunco last week, as noted then in
these columns. It says: "By his own con
fession to tbe News editor. Mr. Mizener
does not read papers!"' "Twas ever thus.
Shortly before noon Friday at the quar
ries cf I'iney Creek, Blair county, Robert
Calbert and a gang of men prepared two
blasts and fired them. One tailed to ex
plode. Calbert took a sixteen-foot bar

Twenty minutes afterward he died. The

leaves a wife and five children.
A peculiar case of blood poisoning is re

fingers by a bee, and her condition has at
last become so serious that the amputation
of two fingers was decided.
There's but one prisoner in the jail of
Indiana county, I'a., and he doesn't care
to get out. The iltuzcnycr says: "He is
charged with having three or four wives,
and they are not on the best ol terms with
him; which fact, in connection with the
additional fact that he has amother in
law for each wife has much to do with
his disposition to stay where he is. Life
is not so much a burden to him in jail as
it might be were he outside,and he know.', a
good thing when he sees it."
Tbe other day two bright young girls
were returning to Beaver Falls after a

wreck aud the contents rati all over the
seat, the girl's dress and the floor of the
car. It was a horrible mess, and the con
ductor had to get rags and wipe the pooi
girl off. It was fortunate the eggs were
not yet old enough to need ventilation.

solid rock, to be H feet square in tbe cle ir.
The scheme of tunnelling through the
mountain first occurred to John Markle,
who is to be president of the company,
which will bear the title of Jeddo Tunnel

ible supply of coal and furnish employment
for thousands of people for many years to
come. It will also serve the double pur
pose of draining all the collieries iu the
valley.

SPECIALIST
In the Treatment of Ckroalr Dlsra»e«,
confines his practice to such cases only as
are so clearly and fully developed as to
make a complete aud positive diagnosis
without questioning or allowing patients to
make a statement of their condition. This
method of examination is made in order to
eliminate ail elements of uncertainty as to
the nature of disease—as far as human
.-kill and experience can do and inspire
contidence where mistaken diagnosis has
has led to unsuccessful if not injurious
treatment. On this basis of positive diag
no is for treatment Ur. Clark's experience
has become strictly unlimited by a thirty
year's practice, which in extent, variety
and successful results is equaled by few,
and excelled by none. Patients, MALE or
1 F.MALE, not cured by ordinary treatment
or in doubt a to the nature of their dis
ea-e, especially invited.
Ur. Clark ou his last visit waited on HO
