WILLIAM R. PATTERSOX.
THE humbug hue and cry for Blaine
that the Cameron —Quay combination
started, a month before tho time for the
State Convention, over three months before
the election, and nearly a year ahead of
next National Convention, makes one
wonder what they will do next. They tell
a storv of a sailor who, while ashore,bought
a parrot, and then went to the theatre,
and the play interested him so intensly,
that after each act he would "wonder
what in h 1 they'd do next.'' By and
by there was a tremendous explosion, the
building was demolished, and nearly
everybody in it perished. The sailor was
killed, but the parrot was not, and as they
pulled its cage from among the debris, it
wondered "what in h —l they'd do next.
And so the spectators of the doings of Don
Cameron,and hit Ami damnee( friend damned
to him) Quay, as the French put it, can
well wonder -vhat will be their next move
towards obtaining control of the State
delegation to the next National Conven
tion, and the next State Legislature.
Roll of Honor.
A. C. Baldwin, of Lancaster,
H. Wallace Brown, of Crawford.
E. A. Coray, Jr., of Luzerne,
Leonard Lewis, of Bradford,
Albert Magnin, of Delaware,
John K. Mallinee, of Crawford,
John W. Morrow, of Indiana,
Alonzo A. Potter, of Crawford,
Xoah Sean or, of Indiana,
A. B. Sumner, of Bradford,
Austin L. Taggart, of Montgomery.
The above are the names ol those Repub
lican members of the late House of Repre
sentatives, who refused to vote for J. D.
Cameron for U. S. Senator, and at least one
of them should be on the State ticket this
year.
Now that three counties of this Con.
grcssional District hare appointed com
mittees looking towards the adoption of
the popular vote method of nominating
candidates that matter should be perfected
as soon as poissible.
The Hemlock Worm.
It has generally been thought that heni
jock and all trees of that family are proof
against the ravages of worms and borers,
it is now reported that alarm is spreading
in Potter county and throughout the great
strip of hemlock timber in Pennsylvania
over the ravages of* worm that is destroy,
ing the foliage of the hemlock.
It was only daring the past week that
it was noticed that the tops of the heavy
timber on the mountains were turning
brown, as though the trees were dying.
The trees looked exactly as though the
had gone through a forest fire. An inves
tigation proved that the trees were cover
ed with myraids of worms which were eat
ing tho green and tender foliage of this
year'B growth and of tho preceding year,
the woody twig not being touch
ed. The worms are swarming about
the men engaged in bark peeling by
tho millions, while on all the trees from
Coudersport to Port Allegheny, miles and
miles of trees are turning biown. The
worm that is doing the damage is of the
"measuring worm species, about an inch
loDg, and nearly an eighth of an inch in
diameter.
Southern California had an earthquake,
last week, that changed the bed of the

Oil Notes.
The flames were extinguished at the
ShlagelandLentzwellon the Garvin farm
in Cranberry twp. last Friday morning,
and it was reported to be doing COO bbls.
from the 100 ft. next day. The well was
set on fire by a driller who was looking
for his horse in the woods near by, and
not by a farmer as reported. Shlagel and
Lent* are Allegheny city men. They
tried their bands at oil producing some
years ago, and bad bad luck at first, at
one time having $32,000 in the hole—ha*
they made some money at Glade Run, and
this strike will make them rich as they
have all the Garvin and some other territo
ry in the vicinity.
The Standard hat been doing some
strango things with the oil market lately.
On Friday of last week, it was announced
that hereafter tbe premium on all Western
Pennsylvania, New York and West Vir
ginia, oil would be 15 cents. Next day it
took off the premium entirely, and oil sold
that morning at 50 cts., the lowest for
nine years, but by evening was up to 70
cts. Since that it has been staying in the
sixties, and speculation has been more
active.
Thompson A Dale's No. 2 on the Oswald
Kmler is rated at 200 bbls a day, and is
onu of t'uo best wells in the county.
Bolard A Co.'s No. 2 on the Kennedy,
near Mars, is rated at from 25 to 30 bbls a
day.
Phillips No. 1 on the Harry Logan in
Jefferson twp. will be ready to case in a
few days. The same can be said of his
well on the L. Y. Welsh.
SOMR citizens of Philadelphia are making
an effort to establish a state Naval Reserve

PITTSBCRG, August 20, 1891.
"The world do move," an old saying,
but none the less true. The particular
Sortion of the foresaid sphere to which we
esire to call the attention of our readers
is Pittsburg and its grand Exposition,
which opens its doors for the third season
011 Wednesday evening, Sept. 2nd, for a
period of forty days, or to be more de
finite, closiug Oct. 17th.
The wondertul success which has attend
ed tbe efforts of its promoters in the past
two years is already well-known to the
people of this community, and has passed
into history as one of the most deserving,
at tbe same time one of the most successful
of public enterprises. Its management his
the flattering record to its credit of having
faithfully carried out its promises, as thous
ands of delighted visitors can abundantly
testify. The exposition has, in conse
quence, received the unqualified endorse
ment of every intelligent citizen of Western
Pennsylvania and adjoining States. The
gentlemen who have this important under
taking in charge are determined to do
everything in their power to make it more
attractive and valuable each year From
present indications they are on tbe right
track, and are bound to succeed. Xo ex
penses has been soared to provide the best
attractions possible for their patrons. The
famous Seventh Regiment Band of New
York, under the direction of the established
favorite, Col. Cappa, as leader, hss been
engaged for the entire season.. This is
the first time this magnificent musical or
ganization has ever visited Pittsburg, and
tbe Exposition management is to bo con
gratulated on being able to effect an en
gagement with such a representative body
of musicians.
Another attraction will be the Art De
partment, which will comprise a collection
of rarest and most costly gems from tho
studios of both America and foreign artist".
The loan collection of paintings tendered
the Exposition Society, through the courte
sy of many of the wealthy and public-spirit
ed men ol Pittsbuig and Allegheny, is un
questionable the finest collection of valu
able works of art ever shown in Pittsburg,
and has never been surpassed as a whole,
anywhere in thi» country.
The Exposition is booming, and this will
be the most prosperous year, and
everyone who can should certainly im
prove tbe opportunity to visit it before it
closes.

years.
"Probably no man in the county was
more respected than was Robert A. Mifflin
Esq. This respect arose from his charac
ter. being that of a just and good man in
all his ways and works. No one had ever
reason to doubt his position on any ques
tion affecting the public welfare. lie was
open, sincere, brave and honest. He was
a useful man all his life, serving his fellow
citizens with the greatest fidelity in many
places of trust. In 1800 he was elected
Clerk of the courts of the conntv, diucharg
ing its duties for a term faithfully. In l w 7o
ho was elected a member of the legislature
for the county and no man ever left that
body with a more unstained record than
Esquire Mifflin. No power or influence
could swerve him from the right and hon
est course. He, in a word, was a man of
tbe highest moral life. Most of his years
he lived in the village of North Washing
ton, where as a merchant and business
man he held and retained the confidence
of his fellow citizens through all his career.
His loss will be deeply felt in that com
munity and is regretted by all who knew
him. His funeral on last Saturday, we are
told, wa- one of the largest ever known in
the county.
