GREER, Of Butler, Subject to Republican Primary, June 4th, 1892. TUB Grant-Conkling letter published in another column is pronounced both by Grant's widow and son to be a forgery. It appeared in the anti-administration papers of last Friday and was intended as an ar gument against a second term, whereas Grant was, or is represented as, arguing against being forced to be a candidate for a third term. At that time Cameron and Quay and all their followers in this State were for Grant for a third term, and they were so confi dent of nominating him they were advis ing people to "get in out of the wet," "get into line," etc. Their object at that time was to beat Blaine, and in that they succeeded, but they were also beaten themselves, and Blaine's friend, Garfield, was nominated. Now the same crowd, or what is leit of them, is trying to forco Blaine to be a candidate to beat out Harrison —with what success remains to bo seen. If the letter is not a forgery it relieves Grant's character of what at the time seemed an unseemly ambition, and if it is a forgery it shows to what straits the anti-Harrfsonites are put for an argument. Harrison has given the Quay-Cameron- Platt-Clarkaoa crowd everything they eould reasonably ask for, but like the old Conkling-Cameron, et al, crowd, they are not satisfied. They want it all. Shaking Dice for the Presidency. There is a marine animal, so offensive in shape and habits that for many years alter it was first described men hesitated to believe that such a thing could be. It oonsists of a central stomach, surrounded by long arms that reach out in every di rection. It haunts dark and slimy eaves nnder the water, and seises upon every passing thing that is digestable for a prey. When it desires to conceal iself from an enemy or a victim, it throws out from its body an inky liquid which fouls and dark ens the water, so that the eye cannot lol low its movements. When Secretary Blaine wrote to Chair man Clarkson in February, declaring' that his name would not be presented to the Minneapolis convention, the presidential situation was perfectly clear. There was no vehement protest from tbe 7 people, no declaration that the nomination should be lorced upon him. The party recognized his right to consider the state of his own health, his age, und the proprieties of bis official relation to President Harrison. His decision was accepted with the less regret from the general recognition that his chief strength as a candidate, by which he would be stronger than he was in 1684, must be founded on his share in the work by which the present administration bad com mended itself to the country, which was a strength that would be equally felt in the campaign if the head of that Ad ministration should lead the ticket. And so accepting Mr. Blaine's refusal as sin cere and definite, the general sense of the party turned to President Harrison as the logical candidate. Then a little knot of dissatisfied politi cians began darkening the waters. From invisible depths came anonymous rumors of the President's unpopularity, while con vention after convention of delegates, fresh from the boeom oi the people, were pass ing resolutions praising him and his admin istration, to the limit of English language, as wise, faithful, patriotic and Republican. Nobody could find a Republican in his neighborhood who would not support Har rison as heartily In 1892 as he had done in 1888, yet anybody could read in the papers daily that somebody at Washington said he was unpopular. The political waters seemed clear enough all around exoept in this one spot, where a flood of ink was be ing squirted into it every day. The oppo sition newspapers found nothing to strike at in the policy of the Administration. At home and abroad it won applause for its handling of great questions and its conduct in trying emergencies. Only the little group of unsatisfied patronage hucksters at Washington found in these things the signs of unpopularity, and so often as the President turned the cold shoulder to any of their extravagant demands, they pro claimed the whole party iu a congestive chill. Having, >t they thought, sufficiently obscured their purposes and movements under these reiterated, declarations, they contrived a number of rival candidacies, created, like the President's unpopularity, out of their own desires. Cullom,Lincoln, Alger, Reed, Sherman, and McKinley vere set alternately before the public as the choice of these faithful guardians of the party which, without their direction might be oraiv enough to nominate the unpopu lar Harrison. Strangely enough the plain and simple people persisted in prefer ring the unpopular man, and declined to throw up their hats for any of these. And so these high-souled Republicans who serve their party by proclaiming in "ad vance that the man who aepresents all that Republicanism has meant in National gov ernment since 1884 cannot be re-elected desperately determined that he shall not be re-elected, are driven to their last re source. They declare that Mr. Blaine's declaration that his name would not be before the Minneapolis convention was either insincere or indefinite: that they will no&iinate him,and that he will accept, cr if he does not accept, the President will be humiliated, anyhow. If he does accept, and is elected, be would not be any more obsequious to them than President Harri son, but he would not live beyoud a few months anyhow, they argue, and they are selecting a satisfactory and compliant can didate to run for Vice President, with the i expectation that death will bring swift promotion. And so we leave them, as I they finally appear, shaking dice for the succession, on the coffin of the candidate they pretend to favor. They have overlooked one point however, which is the material one—the fact that the corpse which they have so laid out and straitened is still alive, in mental and physical vigor, and able to take a decisive hand in the name. — PitUbur* Times IT took eighty-five ballots to nominate 6oi.

Ditpatch of last Fri day made public a letter alleged to have been written by President Grant to Senator Conkling twelve years ago. It is as follows: "NKW YORK, May, 1880. Mr DEAR MR. COXKLIXO — I am in re ceipt of your last letter,and have very con siderately weighed the matter in all its bearings. The tribute you pay my serv ices to the country I appieciate, but at the same time I fear you over estimate my services and under estimate the indulgence of our country. There have been exigencies that warranted a second term, but I don't believe that the best interests or the coun try's good ever demanded a third term or 6Ter "I had my doubts even as to advisabil ity of a second term, and you know that I have so expressed myself to you in our confidential talks. This is a big country, full of brainy and ambitions men, who can serve the country eminently well as its president, and I sincerely question the policy of thwarting their noble ambiton. In a public, cosmopolitan country like ours a man's fame is too frequently dependent upon the status of public sentiment. Fame in this country ebbs and flows. To-day yon are the peer; to-morrow you may be submerged beneath the waye of adverse sentiment. This is another reason why the noble ambition to be president should not be restricted to one man. I feel that our country has amply repaid me for all my services by the honors it has bestowed up on me, and I feel that to be a candidate or accept the nomination for a third term would be ingratitude, and would eventual ly affect me with the people who have lov ed me and whom I love. . V I A "I am still of the opinion that I should speak to the countrj, that I should break the silence in a letter declining emphati cally to accept a nomination for a third term. I appieciate your efforts, your friendship and loyalty, but I fear that your zealoußness for me is an error, not of heart but of mind. Knowing that with all your nobleness you have a highly sensitive na ture, and knowing your antipathy to the Maine statesman, I have always reformed from speaking of him to you, but I now feel that I should speak on the matter, and plainly. This estrangement between you two, unless checked, must prove a mutual disadvantage. It will hurt Mr. Conkling- It will hurt Mr. Blaine. It will be a stumb ling block in the way of the ambitions of both. I believe that could the differences existing be amicably adjusted the nomina tion tljis year would go to one, leaving the honor tour years hence more than a proba bility for the other. It is not only necess ary for the good of each that an amicable adjustment be reached, but for the B°o d of the party, and more for the good of the country. "I fear that the presentation of my name at the convention would not only assist in the defeat of Mr. Blaine, but seriously af fect your fixture, besides warping my career. Even should I be nominated it could only come after a spirited contest, in which much bitterness would be inject ed, and then I doubt if I could be elected, as I seriously doubt whether any man can ever again be elected, even for a second term, unless perchance there should arise some extraordinary emergency, which now appears improbable even in the dim future. "I am aware that this # matter has gone on to an extent where an announcement trom me refusing to accept would be look ed upon by some as cowardice. But would it not be far better to be considered a coward than a usurpert I also appreciate your position as you say, ''the final and supreme effort of your life for supremacy, yet in face of all I still believe that my name should not be presented. And further, I believe that your anxiety about the effect an announcement from me would have on your future is an error. "I trust you will consider gravely and oarefully my wishes. I am generous enough to suffer myself rather than to have my friends suffer, if I am convinced that any act of mine would cause them to suf fer. Awaiting your reply before acting, I remain sincerely your friend. U. S. GRAST." A Sad and Strange Career. William B. Dickerson, who died in Philadelphia on the Bth instant, in almost absolute destitution, had a checkered ca reer. About fifty years ago he was a young lawyer of more than average abil ity in Philadelphia. He saw that there was groat corruption in what was then known as the State House ring—a state of things developed later ia New York nnder Tweed rule. With the ardor of youth and the honesty of purpose that youtn gives, Mr. Dickerson undertook, single handed and alone, to expose this corrup tion and fetch the guilty to justice. His effect in that direction gave him great pro minence at the time. But he was unsuc cessful. The public thieves of that day were too many and toe powerful for the ardent young lawyer. They succeded in weakening his influence, and finally crush ed him out. The very people that Dicker son tried to serve joined with the State House ring to over-throw him. He made many friends among people of the honester Bort,but the bitter and unrelenting enemies he made were always alert, while the friends were lukewarm. The case is but a too frequent illustration of the danger that besets a man when he fails in his attack against a well-organized gang of publio spoilsmen, no matter how true his charges of corruption may have been, or how hon est his purpose. Tilden and his friends succeeded ia crushing Tweedism, and had their reward in popular approval; Dicker son failed to make any impression upon the State House ring, aud was crippled, if not crushed, himself. It is only the history of such things repeating itself. Whether this failure 4n his early career led Mr. Dickerson to doubt the old saw, that "Honesty is the best policy," or not, we will not pretend to determine. Cer tain it is that about twelve years ago he was tried and convicted in a Philadelphia court on the charge of forging the will of Robert Whitaker, a wealthy merchant, whose estate footed up a round million ot dollars. He was sentenced to serve a term of ten years in the Eastern Penitentiary. He returned to the scene of bis early labors about a year ago, a broken bown and broken hearted old man, seventy-eight years old and penuiless, always protesting his innocence of the crime for which he had suffered. Before his last great misfortune he came to Franklin, established a law office, aud purchased the property at the corner of Thirteenth and Chestnut street, now own ed by Mrs. Dickerson. During his trial and till the close of his life she .stood by her husband with wifely devotion, sharing alike his prosperity and destitution. There is in the history of William B. Dickerson the material of a thrilling story. Attached to it is a moral, which we leave the reader to work out for himself.— Franklin Spectator. A Gay Youth. Joseph B. Wood, a married man of Al legheny, is in prison at last, after having been shielded for years in a double life by his wife and his old blind father. Woods is a man of good family and fine education especially in music, having been a mem ber of the choir in the Fourth Avenue Baptist Church of Pittsburg, and the Cen tenary Methodist Episcopal Church of Al legheny. He is said to have been carrying on numerous intrigues covering his tracks faily well until aboat seven weeks azo he found a well filled pocketbook, and was was unable to resist the temptation to take a woman of the town and go on a West ern tour in her company. It was this trip that brought him to grief. Tbe pocket book belonged to T. J. Ellis of Butler county, and contained $290. Wood picked it up on Sixth street, and showed it to several friends. It con tained papers showing the owner's identi ty. It was advertised with a reward for its return, and Wood was advised by bis wife, with whom be had lived on Bea ver avenue, Allegheny, to take it at once to the owner. Instead it is charged, be hunted up the female acquaintance refer red to ana the two went West. The wo man left bim at Ft. Wayne and came back to Pittsburg. From tier and from the friends, whom Wood bad told of his find, tbe owner learned a'l about Wood's move ments. The police were put on the case and a few days ago it was learned that Wood wart working iu a subordinate capacity at a Chicago hotel. It seems he had also been to Denver. The Chicago authorities were notified and Wood was arrested. The young man's wife is now with bis parents at their homo in Philadelphia. Since her husband's flight she has disclos ed that he was almost constantly in troub le with women. He was mawUiuing questionable relations with two or tbreo outwardly respectable women of Alleghe ny, she says and only a few months ago bis father paid S6OO to compromise a case against him brought by a young girl of Mansfield, whom he bad betrayed by pre tending to be an unmarried man. Wood is a machinist and worked last at the Pittsburg Locomotive Works. He is a handsomo young man and the gavety of his disposition made bim a general favor -1 ite everywhere, especially among young women. He is also said to have pretend ed to be v'ery religious.—Pittsburg Times. Assembly and Conference Notes. At Portland, Oregon, Monday morning the Committee to revise the Presbyterian Confession of Faith reported to the General Assembly, and their report is being con sidered. . The new section relating to infants dy ing in infancy is as follows. "Infants dying in infancy and all other persons who are not guilty of actual trans gression are included in the election of grace and are regenerated and saved by Christ through the spirit who worketh when and where and how He pleaseth, so also are the elect persons who are not out wardly called by the ministers of the Word." . , At the opening of the session Monday afternoon the Assembly Committee oi Conference with Union Seminary submit ted a report with this resolution: "That the General Assembly, without surrendering in any way its authority or its natural right of control of all the agencies and institutions of the Church, hereby proposes and agrees to refer the subject of the interprepation of compact of 1870 as to the disputed point of transfers, to arbitrators.to be mutually chosen by the General Assembly and the Hnion Theo logical Seminary." _ . No action was taken. Dr. Briggs had arrived, having traveled Sunday to take a hand in the fight. In the M. E. General Conference at Omaha, Monday, the Committee on Judi ciary reported that no other interpretation of the words "lay delegates" than that now had can be made, namely that "lay dele gates" means male delegates and not female. Homer Eaton waa elected treasurer or the Sunday School Union Society, and the Episcopal Board, with Lewis Curts as his assistant. Daniel Denham was appointed treasurer of the Tract Society. A resolution denouncing capital punish ment, and recommending solitary confine ment, was laid on the table. Dr. Potts, ot Michigan, offered a resolu tion empowering the bishops to submit to the annual Conference a proposition to ad mit women as lay delegates. Mr. Potts demanded that the Conference act on the matter. Notwithstanding the opposition of the official paper, he believed the wo men could win. . Dr. Moore, of Ohio, offered a substitute resolution, providing that the word "lay man" must of right be understood to in clude all the members of the church who are not menbers or presidents of the annual Conference. Dr. Buckley s' cured first blood by rais ing the point of order that this matter is now before the Judiciary Committee, and should be referred to that commitee. The Chair so held, amid applause. The matter was then deferred for the present. The General Assembly of the L. 1. Church is in session at Pittsburg, and the Butler Presbytery is represented by J. A. Clark, J. B. Borland, A. B. Dickie, D. B. Donthett, J. H. Dickey and James Gib son. THE State Candidates met at Harrisburg last week and selected Gen. Frank Reeder of Easton for Chairman of the State Com mittee and George Pearson of Mercer for Secretary; but Quay wanted Frank Will ing Leech retained as Secretary and Pear son had to give way to him. IT is but a short time since the Supreme Court of Vermont held that tobacco was a drink, within the meaning of the statute m aking it an offense to "treat' a jury to " victuals or drink." Now comes a Charleston Judge with tho docwion that soap is a medicine within the meaning of the Sunday law. That law perm its the sale of drugs and medicines on Sunday. The keeper of a drug store was arraigned for selling a cake "of soap. He was discharged by the Court on tho ground that soap was a mediciiie, and thereiorc its sale on Sunday was lawful. Here is the reasoning of Judge Pringle:— It can hardly bo thought ridiculous to say that under certain circumstances a cake of soap may be regarded as a medi cine. There are certain kinds of soap which are as distinctly and absolutely medicinal as it in possible for anything to be. Not to mention others, the world renowned carbolic acid soap and cuticura soap are as much medicinal as calomel or castor oil. And it has been said by very high and reverend authority that cleanli ness is neat U> godliness. S® that to fine a man for selling au article which is so conducive to that cleanliness which is the next thing to godliness as a cake of soap would be to make the effort to be clean an act of ungodliness. By iDgic of this kind a good deal of elas ticity can be giron to a Sunday law. The Western Pioodu, The Missouri and Mississippi rivers were on a regular rampage last week. Sioux City, lowa, was flooded on Wed nesday and Thursday, and fifty people were drownod. At Des Moines, lowa, a thousand homes were abandoned and It. R. trafoc was stopped. At St. Louis and vicinity eight thousand people were made homeless, and the dam age by the waters ry England of the invi tation of the I'nited* States to take part in an international conference on the silver question looks like a step toward the solu tion of the silver question. It is really to be hoped that it will amount to something definite, just and satisfactory all round. England's acceptance will doubtless carry the other nations with it into tho move ment. Favorable responses have already been received from Italy and Austria. IDBAJTIIS. MOSIER—At her home in Butler, May 19, 1892, Mrs. Gabriel Mosier, aged 82 years.
