The CITIZEN presents its readers with an excellent portrait of our candidate for Governor. DASIEL HARTMAX HASTIXOS. Daniel Hartman Hastings comes of Scotch-Irish ancestry and his father was a small farmer in Clinton county, where the son was born on February 26, 1849. In the winter of 1863, when he was but 14 years of age, a school in Wayne town ship became vacant. The boy borrowed one dollar, trudged through the snow and secured the appointment, conditioned up on his passing an examination. He walk ed back to Lock Haven the same day, was examined and received his certificate re turning on foot in time to open the school the next morning. Meanwhile tbe dollar was spent and bis first day's experience as a school teacher was passed without anything to eat. The following four years were spent in teaching the neighboring schools in the winter and assisting his father ,n the farm in the summer. He studied diligently through the winter evenings, the better to quality himself for teaching, and in 1866 his exertions were rewarded by being elected principal of the High School at Bellefente. This po sition he filled for eight years. In 1875 he was admitted to the practice of law, and in a short time became a leader at the bar and in politics. In the campaign of 1882 General Hastings was the personal friend and enthusiastic sup porter of General Beaver for Governor. Defeated but not disheartented, in 1886 General Hastings presented the name of Governor Beaver to the Republican Con tention and asked and secured his renom ination. As a delegate at large to the Republican National Convention in 1883, he placed Senator Sherman iu nomination fer President. He was equal to the occa sion, and in a single half hoar attained a national reputation as an orator. Mean while be had served as a member of the school board aud as Barges* of Bellefonte. General Hastings became connected with the National Guard in 1887, in July of which year he was made paymaster of the Fifth Regiment, with the rank of captain. He served on the staff of General Beaver, then a division commander, dur ing the riots of July, 1887, accompanying he command to Altoona. In March, 1878, be was elected and commissioned lieu tenant colonel of the Fifth Regiment; in June, 1883, be was appointed assistant adjutant general of tbe Second Brigide and in Marob, 1884, he was clocted colonel of the Fifth Regiment, and at the annual inspection of 1886 bis regiment achieved the highest stauding of any in the State. After serving nearly threo years in that rank, in January, 1887, Colonel Hastings resigned his commission and accepted the appointment of AdjutaDt General of Pennsylvania. As a member of the Mili tary Commission created to revise the military code of the commonwealth, Gen eral Hastings, in connection with General Hartranft and other able officers of that board, rendered excellent service in the preparation and passage of the present military bill, which places the military of the Stato on its present basis of efficiency and completeness. As Adjutant General the National Guard openly acknowledges General Hastings' ability, zeal and effici ency. It recalls the success of the Divi sion Encampment of 1887 at Mount Gretna where General Sheridan reviewed the 8,000 guardsmen, all fully equipped for war, all due chiefly to the united energy and vigilance of Generals Hartranft and Hastings. On June 1, 1889, ho was at a small town in Cambria county. When he heard the awful reports from Johnstown he at once hired a team and started for the ill-fated city, driving the whole day long over flooded roads and broken bridges, arriving at Johnstown at 4 p. m. Taking in the situation of affairs, he immediately tele graphed to Governor Beaver to send up some tents and other necessaries, then took off his coat and went to work as a private citizen to help and succor the dis tressed. Promptly recognized by the sur vivors of the disaster as the man for the place, by general consent he assumed the charge and responsibility of feeding and relieving the people, subseqaently man aged the operations ordered by the Stato authorities, demonstrating his great abil ity and making himself a popular hero. General Hastings conduct of affairs at Johnstown brought him more prominently than ever before the people of the State, and in 1890 he aspired to tho highest hon or, within the gift of his party—the nom ination for Governor. He entered the convention of that year with a btrong support, receiving sixty four votes on the first ballot, to eighty-four for Dulamater and fifty-six scattered among four other candidates. He received sixty votes on the second ballot, to ninety for Delarnater, bat the latter's position was too strong and a few changes gave him 105 votes— two more than was necesscry for the nomination, leaving Hastings with fifty eight. General Hastings win ofTitrcil the chair manship ot the Stale Committee for the en*njng year, bat declined the portion. On the organisation ot the Columbian World's Fair Commission, in Sept. 1890, he wan defeated for the position of direct or-general by Colonel George R. Oavia, of Chicago, by a vote of fifty-four to fifty. In 1877 General Hasting* was united in marriage with Miss Jane Armstrong Rank in, a daughter of James H. Rankin, the present senior member of the Centre Co. bar. He is a member of the Methodist church and holds the position of trustee ol the of Bellefonta. Til E :;udden rising of the Leon a riv«r, la- Friday night, destroyed toe town of Uvalde, Texas, and drowned about a hun dred iamilies. A Variety of Opinion. In order to give our readers the benefit of the opinions of the leaders of the Demo cratic and Republican parties on the new "bargain and ?ale tariff bill we append the following Congressman Cock ran (Dem.)of the Ways and Means Committee: Tho pas* Age of the Senate bill by the House is the most disgraceful chapter in American history. The position hereto fore assumed by the House is conceded to be right, even by the Senate, and is now surrendered to some person whose identity even is concealed. There is no eridence that the Senate would not have agreed on a compromise. In the caucus Mr. Wilson was asked to name the men who were holding up the American Congrets, but he declined to do so. We have therefor sur rendered to a rumor, the source of which cannot be traced. The walls of Jerico fall ing before a blast of wind yielded to a force much more tangible than that which sent the House of Representatives scurry ing into an abject, cowardly, self confessed betrayal of the principles which they pro 'ess. W. Bukkk COCKBA.V. Congressman Tarsney (Dem.) of the Ways and Means Committee: I do not consider the Senate bill as any improvement over the McKinley act. In my judgement it does not reduce the bur dens of the people, although there is are daction of the rates generally throughout the schedule. The tax on articles taken from the free list more than overbalances the reductions on the other schedules. Should there be any redaction ia the bur dens of the people, such reduction would not compensate for the injury to the pub lic and private morals of the people that must result, from the conviction, now. gen eral, that the bill is not the product of the deliberate, patriotic judgement of their legislators, but it is the result of influence that ought to have no potency in the mak ing of the people's laws. J. C. TARSSKV. Ex-Sneaker Reed(Rep.)of tho Ways and Means Committee: It is useless to comment upon the per formance in the House to-day. It fitly a long and disreputable career. Frem Mr. Wilson's lame opening to the Speaker's unfortunate and unjust allusion to Mr. Cockran it was all of a piece—a struggle in the dust, a nauseous swallow ing, a most unsightly exhibition. The House dealt with a bill that was not before it —lent itself to "perfidy and dishonor, "as the President says; and not only did it bat dag down for the chance.That parliamentary law was violated is a small affair, for it has not been unusual in this House; but that they shoald proclaim with their voices that they were to fight trusts and monopolies and then go in a course or ac tion which made trust shares go up four points the very day it was adopted de mands that severe reprobation should ac company talse pretenses. As for the little bills rushed through, the subterfuge is too transparent fa even a moment's consider ation. It is a pure humbug. They pass ed a bill taxing sugar and coal and then passed dummies pretending to repeal it, and all the same day. T. B. RKEU. EVERT Republican should take notice that to-day(Thursday, September 6)is the last day for the registration ot voters and the assessment of taxes, and Saturday, October 6, the last day for the payment of taxes in order to entitle one to vote. It is of vital importance that not a single vote be lost to the cause of protection this fall and that the majority for its candidates should be so great as to forever eud the possibility of any more Democratic tariff tinkering such as that which has recently inflicted unnumbered evils on the country. Every Republican should see that he is registered and his taxes paid in time to vote. Don't depend on your committee man; he has enough to look after. Washington Notes. The scramble among thu hengry Demo crats for the $4,000 place made vacant by the tragic death of Bank Examiner Miller for Western Pennsylvania, bids fair to be come a national one. Notwithstanding the fact that there are a score of candi dates in Western Pennsylvania, applica tions are coming in from all parts of the country asking for the appointment. They aro being filed by Acting Comptroller Tucker until Comptroller Eckels' return. There is no regulation that requires that an examiner shall be a resident of tho ter ritory in which be is assigned to duty, con sequently it is a contest open to all. THB September elections began Monday in Arkansas, followed by Vermont Tues day, and by Maine next week, Tuesday. In all there States Governors and a com plete list of State officers and full Legisla tures will be chosen The campaigns have attracted little attention outside the States themselves, tne result in each case being conceded in advance. Flick Items. Be it known that: Part of last wook was very smoky. Some thought China ha! retreated to America and and all were smoking. Ed Westerman and J. C. Johnston spent last Saturday taking in the sights in the Cuoperstown oil field. K1 *i> i tan prettiest sight he saw was Joe Mangel's goat. The old well on George Bays, Jr., farm is soon to be tested in the hundred-foot by the Forest Oil Co. John Burton intends to see that the School Directors of Middlesex twp. puf floors in all the coal housed. The Clinton and Flick bovs played a very interesting gamo of ball on Saturday. Saininie Anderson, a little boy iu knee pants, was supposed to be the best plater from Flick. Wm. Baker, of Penn twp., has moved to the Capt. Bays farm, to drive for Capt. M. V. Moore. J. W. Gillespie intend* to go to the G. A. It. Kncamptncnt at Pittsburg. John is a good looking man i> uniform A small son of lohn Flick fell front an apple tree a few days ago and broke his arm in two places; also one of Wrn Gal laher's boys fell oir a stable and broke his arm.

It is not generally known but it is a fact, j nevertheless, that there is a cave in Arrn . strong county from seven to nine miles in 1 extent. It is full of capacious chambers. ' some of which are thirty feet in height. ! and which are gorgeous with beautiful ' stalaglites and stalagmites. In many in stances these have met and formed col j nmns which seem to support the roof like i marble pillars. Rev. Johnston, of Key j noldsville. explored this cave not long ago, and says it is a wonderful one. The cave, he says, has a very bad floor. In many places you have to wade water to the knees, and you should not enter it with a suit of clothes m on that you ever wish to wear again. The confession of a negro led to the ar rest of a wealthy butcher at Greensburg ' for having his competitors slaughter house j burned. | A large and successful blast was made July 29 in the quarries of the American Ceiiieut Company at Kgypt, near Allen town, Pa. The blast consisted of 22 charges of dynamite in holes drilled 20 feet deep. There was a total of a ton of dynamite. It was all set off simultaneous ly by electricity. The report was loud | and the earth shook a trifle, but not a mishap occurred. The result was unex pectedly successful It is calculated that the enormous amount of 12,000 tons of ce ment rock was dislodged by the blast. A prize of S2O cash and a suit of furni ture was offered by the managers of the county fair at West Chester to any young man and girl who would be married in public on the fair ground. This alluring j inducement, added to the natural tenden cies of earnest lovers to wed, started a lively competition for the prize. Two couples have entered the list, and how mauv more will follow no one can esti mate. The fair managers are in a panic lest their shall be a email array of lorera ready to claim the reward. Provision was made for but one marriage. Reunion in Lancaster Twp. The fifth tri-ennial reunion of the Stew art and English families was held at the homo of Wm. Lutz of Lancaster twp.,Aug. 23d.
