changing the day for holding our pri
mary from Saturday to Tuesday, the
convention to lie held next day. John
was full of tHie subject and made a
good speech on it, and the
motion was put and carried with but
one dissenting, voice. The Resolution
reads as follows:
"Resolved, That by reason of its
proximity to the Sabbath, Saturday is
not a convenient or proper day of the
week on which to hold the Republican
primary elections, as has been done
heretofore, and we do therefore recom
mend that hereafter all Republican pri
mary elections lie held on Tuesday of
the proper week, and the convention of
delegates on the Wednesday following.'
The Committee on Resolutions report
ed as follows:
We the delegates of the Republican
party of Butler county, in convention
assembled, congratulate the people of
the county upon the return of the Re
publican party to power, and the instal
lation of that sterling patriot and true
American citizen. William McKinley,
in the office of President, which insures
a return to the American policy that
will bring prosperity to the country iu
the future as it has in the past.
Resolved,
That we approve the action of thp
new administration, and our Republi
can leaders in Congress, in deciding
that filling the places of office-holders
shall be held in abeyance until the in
dnstries of our country fanning, man
nfacturing and commercial, have been
relieved and revived by remedial tariff
legislation that was so promptly intro
duced on the assembling of Congress in
extra session.
That in our nominee for Congress.
Hon. J. B. Showalter, we present to the
people of the district, as the unanimous
choice of Butler county, a man worthy
of their confidence anil support, and an
all ttye other comities or the district
have.had a representative in Congress
since our county has had one. we ap
[s-al to the delegates from the other
counties to recognize our rights, and in
that spirit of fairness that should con
trol deliberative bodies, to nominate
the candidate from our county, a conn
ty that has always stood for Republi
can principles and against the common
enemy, the Democratic party.
These were adopted unanimously.
A motion prevailed authorizing the
officer* of the convention to declare the
result of the election, as tabulated by
the committee, aud the convention a'l
journed.
THK Mercer County Republican Com -
mittee invites the Republican Commit

gwjllow to Hastings.
Rev. Swallow of Harrisburg was
cotavicted on the second charge of libel
brought again.nt him, lant Friday. He
was serenaded that evening and shortly
after addressed the following letter to
Gov. Hastings, who wa# one of the
witnesses against him.
"Dear Sir If you have examined the
testimony offered by my witnesses, but
mostly rejected by the court at the in
stance of the lawyers representing your
ni.ie of the two suits for libel junt closed
in one of which I am found 'not gnilty
and must pay the costs and in another
of which I am found 'giiilty,' covered
by a motion for a new trial, and if you
have sufficient determination to qualify
you to be the Governor of a great State
yon will have observed that y m are
astray when yon say that the testimony
produced 'is barren of truth.
"No one knows better than you that
you have wrongdoers, your creatures,
filling important places in the service
of the State. Han nothing developed
to prove my claims';' Surely enough
has developed to open your eyes, if not
already open, to the character of many
Of these men, and to stimulate vour
energies to rid your administration of
their presence.
"You nay you told them they wouTil
have to YulaTCsrte «Uwmselve.-> in the
courts.' Have they *-> —*t
infliction* Let us see. No nnit has
been brought on charges one, two and
six. Why? Action for criminal libel
was brought by your representative on
Nos. three, four, five, seven, fright and
nine, leaving one, two and nix unnotic
ed. When it came to trial you aban
doned No. seven. Nos. eight and nine,
concerning which we have more evi
dence than on all the others combined,
were, by order of the court, without
our knowledge or consent carried over
to the June term, thus enabling those
now known by us to be in possession of
State furniture to spirit it av. ay, and
by that time to hold up apparently
clean hands. By that time too, the
visible evidence of the incendiary ori
gin of the fire may have been replaced
by preparations for a new building.
We had less evidence on the soldiers
orphan school than on any other count,
because we had not access to books,
but were acquitted, which was equiva
lent to saying that we were justified in
its publication.
■'We had plenty of evidence when we
began on three and five, especially five.
< )ne of our witnenses who was very
positive at the outset that he knew of
fraud in bidding and of an attempt to
| bribe him for #BOO, shortly after we
were sued was given a State contract
and suddenly became a know nothing.
Another was given additional State
work. Another wan labored with by
one of the prosecutors til! a ]al<- h<mr
of night and went over to the other
side. Another for some reason became
so misty in his recollections of what
had been well remembered liefore we
were prosecuted an to be worthless to
us as a witness.
"When on the witness stand you in
fereiitially complained that we had not
as a taxpayer and a citizen presented to
you in person information in our pos
session as to 'mismanagement,' lonn,
'extravagance,' waste of public funds,
etc. That such a visit would have
been, barren is illustrated by tin- fact
that a mutual friend, who knew some
thing >'f the evidence in our posses-don.
visited you several weeks ago, not at
our instance, to plead with you to din
misn the wrongdoers, force them to dis
gorge, surround yourself with better
men, and thus prevent the pains and
sorrow of pioneciition and the grief
that mnnt inevitably coine to innocent
men, women and children throughout
the State, vhose fathers, brothers, sons
or husbands had at a period neat or i «
mote been led into the appropriation oi
St itc property by the spirit of specula
tion which has characterized so dinas
trously the years succeeding th«- war
"What was your answer? You in
suited the mutual friend and myself by
i ,i>-i una ting that I was weakening and
that lie wan there to for quarter for
me. and you did it after be had told
yoil that 1 would consent to nothing
lens than a continuance of tie litiel
suits to the point of my vindication or
condemnation.
"From thin time forward, t ill you are

In Loving Rem cmbrance,
Thou art gone, the silver cord of life is
loosed;
Broken the pitcher at the fountain head
Thy mortal form to kindred earth re
turning
Thy spirit to the Judge of Quick and
Dead.
Alas the sweetest flower, by lok-e iin
planted
Within the sacred precincts of the
heart.
.Must droop and die while weeds and
briers flourish.
Amid the ruins which neglect i mparts.
Oh! Adverse fate, why o'er me hang

come.
While stranded on the shoals of dire
disaster
I view the wreck thy cruel wrath has
done.
Oh! Father, may these dark and gloomy
sorrows
Be pierced by faith's unfaltering eye
arid comprehend
Behind these shadows waits a glad
tomorrow,
Whose glorious light and joy thy good
ness sends.
For what is earthly hope or fond am
ljiliuii
Whose smile, seductive, lares us to
confide
In evanescent dreams and transient
shadows,
Which leave the famished soul unsatis
fied.
Open the prison door of doubt and
darkness.
Unbar the portal of my soul's seclusion,
And let the light of truth's eternal mom!
Light up with hope serene my soul's
delusion.
Then bid the billowy waves of anguish
settle,
And hush the tempest of my soul to
calm,
And know He rules who counts the
stars by number,
And holds the raging billows in his
han d.
The closing day of lift; whose sunset
glories.
With radient beams light up th<
gathering gloom,
Is but the earnest of a day immortal,
Beyond the confines of the silent tomb,
Not dead, but only changed by life's
transition.
From mortal unto immortality trans
formed ;
Loosed from the prison house of earth
ly bondage,
And earthly conflicts changed for peace
and home
U. iijay the radiance <,f thv life's ex
ample
Shine as the Polar star on life's rough
main
A guiding ray whose beams will all be
ample
To guide my barque and make my
voyage plain.
Then in tin- haven fair the voyage ended.
Earth's storms outridden and *>'irth'b
dangers o'er,
We II meet again no more to part in
sadness—
To dwell in heaven's bliss forevermort
