SOME announcements appear in this
weeks paper, and among them that of
Thomas W. Phillips, who wishes to repre
sent the district of which Butler county is
a part, in the next Congress.
There is no other candidate, so far as we
know, in this coanty—Mr. Black having
decided not to stand.
beaver county will defer to Mr. Phillips;
it is not yet known whether or not Law
rence county will have another candidate;
and in Mercer county, Col. Koonce, a friend
of Mr. Phillips, is the only candidate an
nounced.
This leaves the track practically clear
for Mr. Phillips, and is the result of the
contest of two years ago, which is yet
fire»b in the minds of oar readers.
The Coanty Chairman in his call for the
primary, names the Congressional sub
districts of the conLty, each of whieh
must elect a delegate to the Congressional
Convention whieh will meat at New Cas
tle, May 10th; aal also a delegate to the
convention to select delegates to the Nat
tional Convention the date for which has
not yet been fixed. The Return Judges
of the election precints forming tbese sub
districts will meet at the county conven
tion and compute the vote of their dis
tricts.
THE action of oar Coanty Committee
last Saturday was all that could be desired
—a reasonable time was fixed for the Pri
mary, and the Republicans of the county
are given an opportunity to express their
choice for U. 8. Senator.
We have endeavored, in times past, to
impress upon ear readers the necessity for
a more creditable and worthy representa
tion of this State in the U. 8. Senate, and
now that the Republicans of this county
have an opportunity to do so, let us speak
with our votes, as emphatically as possi
ble.
We suggest to All Republican of the
county who favor ridding oar organization
in the State of the machine Octopus that
baa prostituted it to it* own selfish end*,
that we concentrate oar votes upon one
man and as John Dalzell, the present
member of Congress from the Pittsburg
district is a capable and worthy Kepubli
can, in fall accord with the leader* at the
party, he seema to be tie most available
one.
Hia private character cannot be im
peached; he has risen suprerior to every
public duty ha baa been called upon to
perform,and we ask of our readers a serious
consideration of bis candidacy.
On Wednesday, President Harrison ap
pointed Joseph Baffin gt on Esq. of Kitun
ning to be (J. 8. District Judge for West
ern Pennsylvania.
Ox Friday the Ejections Committee of
the House decided to unseat Col. Andy
Stewart of the 24th Pa. district, oomposed
of Washington, Fayette and Greene conn
tie* and «ire his seat of A. K. Craig.
Meeting of the County Committee.
There was a very respectable gathering
of Republican County Committeemen in
Hnselton Hall, Saturday afternoon, and
their session was a short and sweet one
—sweet in the best interests of the Re
publican party.
A resolution fixing the primary
for Saturday, April 9th, between
the hours of 2 a. no. and 7 p. m.,
the Convention to meet in Butler on the
following Monday at 1:30 p. m., at Buch
places as the Cjunty Chairman shall pro-
Tide, was adopted.
Mr. Goucher of the late Congressional
Committee was called upon, and relat
ed the circumstances of the meetings ol
the Committee of New Castle, said it was
impossible to secure the popular vote, and
that he agreed to submit the report of the
Committee to the Co. Committee, which
he did. The Clerk read the Resolutions,
which, hare already been published, and
which, we think, are pretty generally un
derstood, and they were received and
adopted, without change or comment.
Mr. Mcßride then offered the following
which was adopted unanimously.
Resolved, That we recommend to the
Republican voters at the coming primary
election that they express their choice as
to next United States Senator to be chos
en by the Legislature of our State; and
that in order to their so doing we direct
that a space be provided on all the
tickets for the coming primary election
immediately after the office of Assembly
and the space intended for the names of
the candidates for said office, and in the
following words printed thereafter "Unit
ed States Senator, Instructed for; and
that said expression of opinion shall be
connted and declared at the County Con
vention and shall be regarded as instruct
ions to our Legislative Candidates in the
event of their election to the Legislature.
Blaine and Harrison.
Commenting on Secretary Blaine's
withdrawal the Philadelphia Press says:
This action will be a bitter disappoint
ment to the men who have been trafficking
on the love and loyalty in this and other
States for a great leader. It will no long
er be possible to use a pretended advocacy
of bis claims as a stalking horse for the op
position to President Harrison. The sup
port of Secretary Blame cannot be employ
ed by men who never gave him a vote,
when-bis nomination was possible, to pro
vide themselves with votes which can be
used in the next Republicsn National Con
vention to accomplish the selfish purposes
of unprincipled leaders. The delegates
in this city are chosen, but throughout this
State and in other States the withdrawal
of Secretary Blaine challenges the sober
second thought of the voters of the Repub
lican party in the choioe of its next Nat
ional candidate.
The plain sense of the voters of the
country has long pointed to President Har
rison. His administration represents the
twin principles of protection and honest
money which, as Mr. Blaine shows, must
be the crowning issues of the next oam
paign. President Harrison embodies them.
The past three months have associated him
in the minds of all men with the aggres
sive Americanism which deems the protec
tion of American citizens abroad as impor
tant a duty as the protection of American
industry at home. No President it our
history has negotiated and signed so many
treaties, which extend foreign trade by
judicious concessions while they preserve
full protection for home manufactures.
The .platform and position which the Re
publican party occupies to-day before the
country on the tariff, on reciprocity, on
foreign affairs and on silver, is made up of
tbe acts, proceeding and policy of Presi
dent Harrison's administration. This has
been instinctively seen by the honest Re
publican masses. It has been instinctively
(.received by those dishonest leaders of the
machine, to whom politics is a struggle
for place and never the support of princi
ples, and he has been honored with their
opposition. The logic of events and the
drift of daily discussion have forced Presi
dent Harrison forward as the chief repre
sentative of the Republican party and its
present policy. The only possible opposi
tion which has anywhere been practicable,
has been through tbe uablusbing use of
Secretary Blaine's name, and this use he
has himself ended by the letter publUbed
to-day. Tbe way is now clear for tbe
sound, sober and impartial judgement of
the Republican party to make itself known
and to teach schemers sad self-seeking
politicians how little tbey can either esti
mate or co ntrol tbe aim and choice of the
Republican party in tbe next national
campaign.

Eu. CITIZEK: —Since my last I have
made flying visits to Pomona, Ontario,
Culamongo, San Bernerdino, C'olten and
Riverside, where I tarry for a week. Riv
erside is situated in the upper Santa Anna
Valley, the great orange field of southern
Cal. ia 60 miles southeast of Los Angeles
and about the same distance from the
coast and almost encircled by the moun
tain ranges on the north, foothills on the
east, and the coast range south. Oct. 28,
1870, the wife of D. T. Wood arrived here,
being the first white woman to set foot in
this beautiful valley, where orange groves
are now worth SIOOO to (2500 per acre.
Riverside Is noted for its numerous fruit
packing establishments, massive business
blocks, fine residences and its beantifu l
avenues—Extending westward from the
city 9 miles long is the famous Magnolia
Ave. It is the finest drive I ever saw, it
is doable width, with shade trees in the
center and on either side, of Pepper, Palm,
Magnolia, Gum, Orange, Lemon and Cy
press trees, dotted with fine residences all
the way. and a continuous orange grove as
far as one can see. Here the tourist can
enjoy the treat of a midwinter drive amidst
the perfume of flowers and orange blos
soms. Riverside is well eqaipped with
schools, and eleven denominations wor
ship in their own buildings of modern
architecture. The Lutherans are just
completing a neat house of worship; spirit
less hotel*— ruji on the cold water system,
(only one saloon for this whole city).
Two of the great trans-continental
railroada have pushed their lines in here
and carried, last season,over 2200 carloads
of oranges, 300 carload of laisins, besides
the other fruits from Riverside alone.
On last Friday we went to Chinatown
to witness the Celestials celebrate the
Chinese New Tear, 4109 th. The celebra
tion opened by the burning of red tapes,
shooting fire crackers and making a noise
generally, then tbe exchanging of cards
abd presents. In each home is erected a
small alter containing a censor with in
cense, a red taper burning and a dish of
sweet meats an offering to Joss.
The rain of tbe seaoon set in last Wed
nesday and it has rained every day since.
The laat of this week I leave California
and go to Arizona.

li LA inn's positive declination to be a
candidate for President unmasks his old
enemies in this state who have been mak
ing ase of bis name to accomplish their
own etids. It shows that they were never
in his confidence. He has not and never
had anything in common with them.
Blaine's Declination.
On Saturday last. Secretary Blaine sent
the following letteMo Chairman Clark-on.
WASHIXGTOS, I). C.. Feb. 6.1892.
Hon. .1. 8, Clark-son, Chairman l:<pub
lico* Sational f'otrmilt'e.
My Dear Sir—
I am not a candidate for the Presidency
and niy name will not go before the Re
publican National Convention for the
nomination. I make this announcement
in due season.
To those who have tendered me t'ueir
support I owe fincere thanks and vn most
grateful for their confidence. They will,
I am sure, make earnest efforts in the ap
proaching contest, which is rendered es
pecially important by reason of the indus
trial and financial policies of the Govern
ment being at stake. The popular deci
sion on these issues is of moment and
will be of far-reaching con-equence.
Veiy sincerely yours,
JAMES G. BLAIXE
At Washington, that night, this was
considered a positive and absolute decli
nation. and mean t the re nomination of
Harrison.
WHAT MCKtSLET SATS.
CoLfMßrs, 0. Feb 7.—Gov McKinley
was seen late to-night and to give
his opinion of the Blaite letter of with
drawal He was considerably surprised
when told by »he reporter of the purport
of the communication to Chairman Clark
son. "Let me see the letter," he asked,
sometimes a letter does not say that which
people imagine it does. He took the As
sociated Press dispatch, read it slowly and
aloud, and a brief pause, as if engag
ed in communing with himself or ir.earur
ing the meter and bounds of the communi
cation, said impressively.
"I aui not surprised at the declination
of Secretary Blaine. All my advices were
to the effect that his health was such that
he could not in justice to himself or family
accept the high honor that his party might
have conferred upon him, if he only re
mained silent. He is to-day the most pop
ular statesman of either party in this
country, and stands at the &pex in public
estimation and esteem. The presidency
could have but few allurements for him.
Some eight years ago hediJ want the nom
iuaticn, but since his defeat tbe place has
had no clarms for him.
"I do not know what other candidates
will be in the field, Iml with Mr. Blaine
oat of consideration and with President
Harrison's splendid administration the
latter will certainly go before the conven
tion with a strong Allowing from all parts
of the country. Republican sentiment
will now tun to liitfl."
Interviews with Republican members of
the Legislature says: "The Blaine letter
means Harrison."
Johu Dalzell said: "The letter is what
every one in touch with affairs in Wash
ington anticipated. I believe Mr. Blaine
u entirely sincere in his withdrawal. In
my opinion, I do not think any other can
didate than President Harrison is really in
the race. It would be interesting to note
the position taken by tho*c who have been
using Blaine's popularity as a cloak lor
their personal interest.
Representative George F. Hull, of West
moreland county said: "What do I think
of the Blaine letter f I think it i positive
and absolute withdrawal uoin the presiden
tial race. Who ir> to be the nominee
selected at Minneapolis T President Harri
son beyond a doubt. He deserves a re
nomination; he has earned it, and ought to
have it. The business men of the country
want hint. General Harrison has been so
closely identilied with reciprocity, and the
best business interests of the country, that
he is the natural choice of those who have
ouch interests at heart. Pennsylvania,
particularly, shuuld send a solid delegation
to Minneapolis.
Other members expressed their firm be
lief that Blaine'* declaration in final, and
that President Harrison is the only logical
candidate.
.Senaton Sherman's possible candidacy
for the presidential nomination made him
much sought after by those anxious to learn
his views on the withdrawal of Mr. Blaiue.
Contrary to ais usual reticeucj on matters
of such vital political interest, Mr. Sher
man did not hesitate to express himself on
the Blaine letter. He said he did not con
sider Mr. BUiue out of the presidential
race. As for himself be said tbe use of his
name as a candidate for the nomination
was unauthorized. "1 am not a candid
ate," be said, emphatically.
Representative John Lind, the only He
publican in the House fr' ni Minnesota,
said: "I believe Mr. Blaine's H itbdrawal
in final and made in all siucesity of purpose.
'The question then recurs upon who shall
succeed him in the choice ol Northwestern
Republicans. It is my sincere belief that
Secretary Rusk will be acceptable not only
to the people of Minnesota, but to Wis
consin Republican*, aud, in fact, through
out the Northwest.
Starving Russia.
In response to an urgent appeal from
the Russiau Fa. nine Relief Committee of the
United States, Governor Paitiaon late lait
night issued a proclamation to the people
of Pennsylvania as follows:
"Whereas, Information bas been
brought to the attention of the Executive
that the famine now prevailing among the
peasantry of Runsia is HO wide »pread as to
embrace fourteen great provinces, with a
population of from 20,000,000 to 25,000,-
000 of people, multitudes of whom must
perish unless promptly relieved; and
"Whereas, It has been finally deter
mined that the Congress ol the United
States is not prepared to appropriate
money for the tran-poration of supplies,
so that the question of relief is left to the
generous impulses of the people of the
different States; and
Whereas, the puople of Pennsylvania,
in their recent experience of great local
calamity, were the subjects of generous
philanthropy from every quarter of the
civilized world; an.l
"Whereas, During the year just closed
they have been blessed with abundance
and prosperity;
'•Sow, therefore, I, Robert E. Pattison,
Governor of tbe said Commonwealth, in
answer to tbe appeal from tbe organized
agency for relief to the sufferers in Rus
sia, do hereby issue this, my proclama
tion, recommending to the citizens of
Pennsylvania u prompt response to this
appeal and generous contributions for tbe
cause in which it is put forth.
"And I do further request and direct all
citizens.eocieties, committee* and agencies
desiring to aid in this work to put them
selves into communication with the Rus
sian Famine Relief Committee of the
United States, at No. 732 Fourteenth
street, Washington, L). C., which is act
iug iii full harmony with the American
National Red Cross Association,and which
associations have arranged for tbe prompt
and expedition*! transporations to the
afflicted districts of Ku»sip, and for the
systematic and judicious distribution
among tbe sufferers, of ull grain and otbur

CARXAHAN— At her home in this place
Tuesday morning, February 9, 1892,Mr5.
Sarah Carnahan, aged 86 years, 11
months aud 5 days.
The d-aih 01 Mrs. Carnaban remove* the
oldest ci'izen born in tbe town of Hutlcr.
According to tbe history of fur county,
and from other well authenticated fact*,
she was born in this place on March 4.
1805, and would therefore have been f»7
years of age had he lived to the 4th ot
March coming. It is also banded down t"
us, by i nr bistort und otherwise, that she
was the first female child lioru in thu
town, llt-rdeaih therefore certainly takes
away the last connecting link between tbe
past and tbe present ol the town, in that
respect. There is .>ne older citizen living,
General Heed, but he was not born here.
The lather of Mr» Carnahan. the late John
Potts. Ei-q , has linen deceased for more
than fitty years. Her busbnnd, tha late
Robert Carnahan, Ei-q , has been deceased
for about jorty years ller dea>h there
fore marks an interesting event. She was
tbe last surviving, wo be ieve, of a large
family raised iu thi- place and was a wo
mjui much respected b.t all who knew her.
Heitig an invalid ai d confined to hei bouse
for ninny years pact, but little was seen of
her, but tbe large attendance at her funeral
on Thursday indicated tbo regard
our people had lor her life and
memory. She was always a consistent
member of the Pre s Church of this place

first-class Mat and Furnishing
Store can do for you.
The success of the past
makes us confident oi the present

the depression in business all over
the country we have largely in
creased our lines throughout and
now show a lull and comprehen

We have gone right along
from the time we started owing to
the fact that we adhere strictly to
first quality goods at the very low
est prices, and we would rather
miss a sale- than misrepresent any
