Platfobm planks or legislative enact ment cannot make clean politics. The way to prevent unscrupulous men from con trolling elections by the n»e of money, i* for the intelligent, conscientious men to take nn active and a watchful interest in these n.atters themselves, and bury in ignominious oblivion both briber and boodkr. If men were positively and ag g«.-aively honest instead of only negativs ly so, they would see to it diligently that dishonest political methods did not suc ceed, and would be always eagerly in que?' of the scalp of the candidate who un dertook to purchase the suffrage of his fel low citizens. Political Notes. It is sail thit, Armstrong coaaty will dispute Butler county's claim to the State Senatorship next year, but this county should put up a good man for the office and hang to him. Our State Senate should be the bulwark state govern ment, instead of being a menace to it, as it is at present on account of the number of jobbing politicans in it, A dispstch from New Castle, dated Monday, says: It is now stated on good authorify that Col. Alber*. Clark, of New Wilmirgton, will ba a candidate next spring for the Republican nomination in this county for Confess, opposing Thomas W. Phillips, the present Congressman from this district, and whose home is in this city. Like Mr. Phsllips, Col. Clark has immense oil in Butler oounty and is consider ed a wealthy man. He was national com mander of the Union Veteran L9gion. IT i* not unusual for leading members f of any pi ofession to criticise severely the t rank and file, and it is therefore not as- t tonishing to find Justice Brewer asserting in his sddrees before the Bar Association, t the other day, that "It would be a blessing < to the profession and to the community as J well if some Noachian deluge would en- , gulf half of those who have a lioense to i practice." No doubt there are plenty ot < incompetent lawyer* an J too many disrep- . utable ones; but the legal profession is not singular in this regard. All trades, Aliings and prolessions have their black ■beep and a flood big enough to engulf i them all must necessari'y be of Noachian 1 dimensions. But, after all, the race man ages to progress notwithstanding its duncee. its quacks and its scalawag?; and as these are permitted to live and multiply we may reasonably conclude that they have their uses in the world. Perhaps they arc meant to perfect the patience and stimulate the chartiable sentiments ot wise men l ! ke Justice Brewer. LOUISVILLE. Last Friday afternoon there wai a great barbecue in Wilder park. The least con *i«ted of 100,000 pound* of meat, 12,000 gallons of bnrgoo, a peculiar Southern soup, and 25,000 loaves of bread. There were 250 cooks and 500 waiters, under the direction of Gun Janbert, the farnout bur goo mixer. To prepare the 12,000 gallons of this extraordinary conoootion it required 100 pounds of pepper, 4,00# pounds of beef, 150 'iaebels of tomatoes, 75 doxen chickens. 50 bushels of onions, 4,500 ears of corn, •nd 15 bushels oi salt. Thirty thousand plates, auJ as many water cups enabled that number of people to be regaled at a sitting. The exeda« of visitors was on in earn est *hat day, but ten* of thousands who intended going to Chattanooga vid Chick amauga remained over until Saturday and Sunday. In every respect the encamp ment was au overwhelming success. Tu.i next encampment i* to be held at St Paul. Tim growth ol the population of Canada between the years 1881 and 1801 was 500,- 000. In the same period it received 800,- 000 immigrant* from Enrope and lost 900,- 000 by emigration to the United States. At this rate a Greater Canada will soon be found under the stars and stripes THK cup for which the yachting contest oil Sew York city took place last week was originally the property of the Koyal Y»obt Squadron of Great Britain. In May, 1851, at the time of the first World's Kair in iiondm, the cnp, valued at 100 pounds, was offered as a trophy open to the yact !s of all nalions. In August of that ye*r the Amerioan yacht America distanced the whole English fleet of 15 boats in sail in e round the Isle or Wight, an.l trom that day to this "the America's cap," «s the prize is called, has remained in this country. But our English cousins have made no less than ten attempts to win it back; but never yet have tbey been able to send across a boat fast enough to beat their Yankee competitor. Whether they will succeed this year remains to be seen; but American yacbtmen seem to be strong in tbo faith that thev will not. Meeting of Butler Presbytery.

THK Attorney-General's department at Hjr:: ' -Tg has given an opinion to the ef fect that hospitals receiving State aid are net compelled to accept charity patients when they have no room, and iu fact are not compelled to receive tbem at all.

The reunion of the McClane lamily ii«ld at the residence of Chas. McClung. Kair view, Butler Co , proved a most pleasant and eujo>able event and one long to lie re membered by those present.

After building a log shop and putting up a itoro > I material to sea- Hon, he returned to Westmoreland Co. Itefore leaving in 1804 he married Jane Ho linnoo a sinter ol hin former master. Thin necessitated the building of auother cabin. However he did not remain long with Kiukade, but bought 128 acres of land, three miles froin what is now Fair view, on the Uutler and Fairview road.

There has been of late much talk about our present license laws: what rights ui.d privilege.) are granted to those having a license, anu tho punishments oi those who violate the law either having or not having a license. Time or space will not allow me to quote much from the law. Section 15 says in pirt, Any person who shall hereafter lie convicted of selling or olfer ng for sale, any vinous, spirituous, malt or brewed liquors, or any admixture there of, without a license, shall be sentenced to pay a fine ot uot less than SOOO nor more than $5,000 a.id undergo an imprisonment in the county jtil of not le.'s than three mouths nor more than twelve months. Any person having license who shall h. convicted of violating any of the provisions of the license laws .hall bo subjected to a fine ol not less thau SIOO nor more than SSOO. So you see if you want to violate the license law it is cheaper tc take out a license first. Sec. 17, iu part »ays, that it shall not be lawful for any person with or without •» licence t» furnish by sale, gift or otherwise to any person, any Hpiritoua, virions, malt or biewed liquors, on any day upon which elctions arc now or herea'ter may be re quired to be held , nor on Sunday, nor at any time to a n.iuor or a person J ol known intemperate liabits. or a person visibly affected by intoxicating drink, either for his or her use, 01 lor the use ol any other person. This section thus tar is all right but we think it should require landlord* to wear glares of gnfflcient magnifying power to enable them to HOD thai men are affected before they become beaut I v drunk.

Samuel Waggle, of Dunbar. Pa , is the possessor of an tpple tree which cam« out in blossom in the spring, but nearly all the buds were killed by the frost and only a few apples matured.

When we advertise that we are the largest house, in our line, in the State, main who have never been here think we are "blowing" but when they come in the following are the expressions:—"l am surprised! I read your advertisement but did not think you had a place like this. I knew you sold Wagons, Buggies and Carts, but did not know that you carried such a stock of everything. I did not know that you employed so many HarneM makers. I did not know that you had so much machinery. That engine that runs vour harness machines, is the slickest thing I ever saw. I did not know you sold' Trunks, Buggy Tops, Wheels and Springs. Cushions and I.a/y Backs separate front the buggy. Why you have more money invested in Blankets aud Robes alone than would buy my farm. No wonder you can sell cheap buying in such large quantities. YOUR ADVERTISEMENT IS NO LIE. 1 thought it was. lam glad that 1 came in and now I know where to get anything 1 want alK)ut my Wagon, Buggy or Harness, from the very finest vehicle to an axle washer." _ .... • ~r.
