This is the title of an alleged commu nication in the Eagle of last week, but written by itspld editor, Thomas Rob inson, Esq. It is an attack on Mr. Moore, and Mr. Robinson begins his piece by referring to articles published in other papers, and then asserting that he had voted for Mr. Moore seven times and that Moore was defeated for District Attorney be cause "it was currently reported that his nomination had been secured by questionable means." We remember of supporting Mr. Moore faithfully when he became our candidate for District Attorney, but our recollection also is that he was defeated at the election because it was 'current reported" that he was RoWnson'g man Mr. Robinson follows these prelimi nary remarks with a reference to Mr. Moore's health, and an attack on his record as a member of the Legislature. That Mr. Moore's health has been bad, "unfortunately" for himself but fortn nately for his political enemies, no one can deny; but at the same time he arose from a sick bed at Harrisburg, time and again last winter, and went up to the House and tought a set of scamps who were trying to rob the State better than any man we have ever sent there. He was one of the leaders of the noble "76," whose declaration of independence was directed against Quay and his gang at the beginning of the session,and who fonght the election of Quay's man Pen rose to the United States Senate. No Legislature of Pennsylvania was ever more thoroughly dominated by Quay than the last one, and no greater outrage was ever perpetrated upon the people of the state than Quay's selec tion of Penrose, as his associate. That act alone ought to damn him in every decent household in the Commonwealth. Mr. Robinson is the only man in But ler who, as yet, possesses a bound copy of the Legislative Record for the last session, and he seems to have made an exhaustive examination of it. He -notes that Mr. Moore was not present and voting on the passage of some im portant or alleged important bills. These assertions will bear swered in full and completely—probably next week. Mr. Moore was a member of the Judi ciary General Committee, which had about four hundred and fifty bills on its calendar, and he imfonns us that he attended every meeting of that Com mittee; and also that of the fourteen hnidred and some bills on the Calendar of the House, he was present and voted upon all but about thirty. Mr. Robinson refers to a Justice of the Peace bill, which was submitted by Mr. Moore to some old Justices of the Peace in this county and approved of by them ; also to the Hamilton Road bill, to which Mr. Moore had the $1,000,000 proviso attached which proviso made the bill inoperative until the Legisla ture appropriated that amount to carry it into effect. But his most astonishing reference is to the Becker Bill (No. »4). This was a bill to amend the charter of the city of Philadelphia, and put the patronage of the city into the hands of the faction or clique that at that time controlled the Select Council of the city. It was a distinctively political bill, conceived by Quay's friends in the city; but it was so utterly outrageous that Quay could not hold his friends among the country members for it. It was lost, and in their desperation the Quay people from Philadelphia offered to vote for the bill making a more just and equitable dis tribution of the state's appropriation to the school fund if the country members would vote for the Becker Bill. The deal was made on the floor of the House during a fight for the School Bill; Moore took a leading part in it and knew what he was doing; Philadelphia j lost SIBO,OOO by it, and, if the figures given for Forest county are correct, Butler connty, in the same proportion, will gain about SIB,OOO annually by it. It is the sequel, however, to the Beck er Bill that is the interesting part Quay's fat boys in the Senate passed it, as a matter of wnrse. and it went to the Governor , then Quay and Penrose went up to Harrisburg and tried to bul- Hastings into signing it; and *iU?T their notable deteat tney went oack to ♦heir hotel, and Quay issued his ridicu lous 'Fiery Cross and Bloody Blouses" manifesto, and announced himself as a candidate fcr re-election The Governor vetoed the bill in the words quoted by Robinson—but for Robinson to now hold up those words in approbation is an act of treason to his master exceeding that of Brutus to Caesar. "And you Thomas -This is the un- j kindest cut of all. The matter with Moore from Robin son s standpoint is not his health but his principles When Moore first went to Harrisburg Robinson told him to let it be known that he (Robinson) control led his vote Moore said "No. and j there has been war between them since. ! It does not suit Robinson to have two MEN representing the county at Harris burg What he wants there is two things wjth ' Robinson's Mark on them —which, in the early days of Alle gheny, when stock was allowed to run at large, meant (for pigs) both ears and the tail cut off short. Why tl»i« Disturbance 111 Repub lican ltanks? The Republicans of Butler county were getting along smoothly in the pri mary canvass, the candidates were con ducting a friendly contest for nomina tion to the different offices to be filled this year, a generous rivalry for the support of the people with no ill will anywhere, and all good Republicans hoped it would be so till the end of the canvass. But no, that seemed not to be our good fortune. All at once a change takes place. Thomas Robinson, who holds the _position of Superiuten dent of Public Printing at Harrisburg. and is drawing a salary of about f'2oo per month from the State,instead of lie in g at his post of duty in Harrisburg. has been in Butler a month or more, engineering a fight he is making against James N. Moore by attacking him with a column article in the Eagle last week -thought hemust "let his Eagle scream. Why is Robinson doing so? Simply be cause Moore won t wear a Robinson collar," and in the Legislature stood up for the people of Butler county, and re fused to follow the dictation of Robin son Moore stood by the oil men in their contest on the Pipe Line Bill, Robinson wanted him to work and vote the other way. Robinson is always looking out for Robinson or his family —why don't he return to Harrisburg and earn his salary, let the Republi cans of Butler county manage their own affairs in their own way, and matters will run more smoothly. A BOLT the funiest thing in politics that we have heard of lately was two or three lawyers consulting and bring ing out a candidate for Assembly 'in the interest of the farmer." It is thought very probable they had some other "interest" in view than farming, and rather want to "farm out" some of the offices in the name of a "farmer. Robinson's Modesty. Thos. Robinson in his article in the Eagle against James N. Moore says: "had he modestly retired at the end of his present term all would doubtless have refrained from criticism." "Mod isty" is a good thing for Robinson to suggest to others, he ha* so much of that commodity himself. Away back before the war Robinson was a candid ate for the Legislature, the issue before the people was whether the State law of so much per ton on all freight brought over the Penn R. R. known as the "ton age tax," shonld be repealed or not. The people of Butler County voted against the repeal and Robinson was elected. When he got to Harrisburg and the time came to carry out the will of the people that elected him, he turned round and voted for the repeal and against the instructions of his people. He was several times a candidate before the people after that, with becoming "'modesty," for the Leg islature, for State Senate, lor Congress, bnt the people had tried him once and did not want to trust him again. He still kept in politics, "modestly" of course, got hia oalighten* into the public 6chools, four of them at different times, a son a clerk in Harrisbnrg a winter or two during sessions of the Legislature, fot a daughter into the Postoffice as ost mistress salary SB,OOO per year, another daughter and a son clerks in the Postoffice, had the office about ten years. A change took place, a Demo crat became P. M. and his daughter become clerk and has been there ever since. This man who talks of "mod esty" is very modest,—about office for himself snd family. At present he is holding the position of Superintendant of Public Printing at Hamsburg at a salary of about S2OO per month, one daughter clerk in the Postoffice one a teacher in the Public school* in Butler, one a teacher in the State Norwial school at Slippery rock, and onp pf his boys, by the fathers "pull," attorney for the County Commissioners making five of the Robinson family receiving from the public crib." Is it because there is something else in sight that Thomas wants that he suggests that James N. Moore "modestly retire?" One thing sure Moore always ,stood by and obeyed the will of the people of Butler County; can Robinson say as much* No, he wants them to obey his modest (?) will. Hutlcr County in flu: Legislature. "Why has Butler county always been in the back ground in the Legislature at Harrisbnrg?" has often been asked by many people. Easily answered. A man to be a good legislator and bring his connty to the front, must, in addi tion to ability in that line, have experi ence in legislatiye work. Counties that have influence and standing in the leg islature, when they get a good man, send him back several terms. Not so with Butler County, and why? Thos. Robinson, who wants to pose as a "boss," and who claimed for many years the right to dictate who should fill the different offices, always insisted on sending new men to the Legislature, he did not want them to get too much experience lest they would attempt to think and act on their own account and refuse to "obey the orders of the lioss." he was afraid his occupation would l>e gone. That is why Robinson has "opened fire" on "Jim" Moore in the Eagle, he wants new men in the Legi* latnre so he can continue his "pull Will the people let him have his way? We will see. THK Eagle last week says Senator Quay is at his home "taking a rest" As he came almost direct from Florida to his home it must tx< the fish that are getting a "rest" and not Mr Quay. The Coining Primary. MR. EDITOR; The course of the But ler Eagle for the past two weeks in re gard to our coming Republican primary election has been so outrageous and so unusual as to iustify an exposure of the motives that orompt it. Heretofore it was not considered proper, right or just for any of our party papers to take sides or indicate their preferences among the candidates announced for nominations. AH were allowed a free, full and fail field :n their canvass. Bnt the Eagle | has changed this rule and custom and last week has an attack on Hon James N. M(xtre. one of the candidates an nounced for the Assembly nomination. Why? This may be explained by asking "some more questions," after the man ner of your West Sunbury correspon dent of last week In the first place, is it not probable that envy on trie part of Hon Thomas Robinson towards Hon James N. Moore inspired his article against Mr. Moore in the Eagle last week? Mr Moore has made so faithful, able and useful a member of the Legislature, serving the people of the county and not the lioss. that the Republicans ot the county want to see him back th«*re This they did not do in the case of Mr. Rob ; nsori, | who was once elected to the Assembly, ! an/i wu "retired" by the people at the ,' end of his hisf year, thus making what is termed "a veatliufe ' of him, doubt ' le«s for good and snlflcibiit ?"asons Hence the jiossiblo envy in this matt.-. But, second, is uot th* attack further explained in the fart that Mr. Robinson could not use. dictate to or control Mr Moore in the last Legislation? Mr Moore, and Mr. Dindinger also, pursued a manly course, serving their constitu ents, and could not be pulled or driven into the service of the losses on any question. This did not suit Mr Robin son. who was there holding an office at $•2000, a year and shonld lie at Harris burg now attending to his duties in stead of at Butler trying to dictate to the Republicans of the county, who they should nominate. Why? Third. Has the Hospital at Butler, now nearlv completed, anything to do with Mr ' Robinson's hostility to Mr. Moore? We need not say further on this than that Mr. Robinson's conduct on the Hospital movement has lieen so purely selfish as to bring upon him not onlv the censure but the contempt of almost all citizens. Because he could not have his way he opposed the move ment of the good women, which has re sulted in getting a Hospital built. He even opposed an appropriation for it Mr. Moore, being in Legislature, got it through. It is now erected and will soon be ready for use. But it will need and ought to have State aid. Mr Moore, if sent back to the Assembly, will, and can procure this aid Any candidates whom Rollins*in favors for the Legislature would likely, if elected, listen to him on the Hospital matter How should the Republicans of Butler or of the County, vote at the coming primary on this question? Clearly for two candidates for Legislature who have been and are friendly to the Hos pital. All citizens, men, women, and children, are all interested in the Hos pital. It is much needed and will be a blessing as well as a credit to our coun ty. Let there lie no mistake made in this matter But, finally, and deeper down and back of all above, may not the fact that the next Legislature has to elect a United States Senator have much to do with the great interest Mr Robinson is taking in our primary, coming home here, as we have said, instead of at tending to his duties at Harrisbnrg? He knows he cannot use. trade off or control, Messrs Moore and Dindingeron that question an<t hence is trying to prevent their renoniination. But now is the opportunity of the Republicans of Butler County to aid in throwing cff a one man power in the State that has become so odious and arbitrary as to bring shame and reproach upon our party. Mr. Quay wants to succeed him self. "but the people are disposed to give him a rest, in order that he can give all his time to his fishing exercises in Flor ida and not be troubled with law mak ing matters. Mr Robinson favors keeping him in the Senate, and he ought to, because Quay has mainly been the means of getting him offices that aggre gate now about sS.">o.Ooo. to-wit: The Postoffioe, at Butler, in some shape or form for about twenty years, at an average in all of $'»000 a year, making say $10,000: and the office of Public Printer at $"2000, per year, for the five years he will hold it $10,000; in all said £>o,ooo, saying nothing about the nu merous other offices he or his have held in this county or in the State at Harris buig Is it any wonder he wants to de feat Moore and Dindinger, who are with the people on this question and cannot be bought or sold ?

West .Sunbury Items, Sunbury has been so quiet for the last two weeks that Longfellow had nothing to say. Revival meetings are being held in the M. E. Church. Miss Angie Thompson was a welcome visitor to our town fora few days. Miss Thompson is employed in the Butler Court-house. Myrtle Bartley visited her sister Miss Vina who is attending the Academy. Will Graham's pleasant face is again seen on the streets of our city. The entertainment given by the Irv ing Literary Society on last Monday evening was enjoyed by all The per formances consisted of debates, decla mations, essays, a short drama, vocal and instrumental music, and lastly the reading of the "Irving Star." The house was well filled. The members of the society regret that Prof. Nevin had to remain in the hall, had he only step ped inside the ushers, would have glad ly found him a seat as there were still a few vacant chairs left. Miss Ada Black of Troutman visited friends in Sunbury last week. Miss Pearl and Jessie Wick have re turned after a few weeks vacation. Mr David Coulter who resides east of town was injured lately while out cut ting timber. The axe struck a limb and glancing struck the top of his foot, catting through it.

W. and Sarah Brandon of C'onnoquessing twp. aged 26 years, 9 months and 18 days. She came to Butler on Feb. 5 intend ing to visit her brother W. S. Brandon for a week or two. Although not feel ing well she attended prayer meeting on the 9th. took her bed on the 10th; when the Dr. was called she was suffer ing from heart trouble, but soon ty phoid fever developed in its most dreaded form The weak condition of the heart made the case critical from the first. Her snfferintr was intense daring the trreater part of her iillnuss and although the case seemed almost hopeless from the first yet all that loving friends, and modern medical science conld do was done. The morning preceeding her death she seemed to rally; about 10 o'clock she seemed to fall into that life giving sleep which is the coma of the fever,but alas it was the sleep that knows no waking. Her physicians were hastily summon ed, the friends and rulatjves were hur ricd to the bedside, only to see the end which came speedily and peacefully,not a pain, not a struggle. Calm and peacefully her spirit was bourne back to her maker The deceased was a faithful member of the Mfc. Nebo Presbyterian church and of the Y. P. S. C. E. of St. John's Reformed church [ .She had earl} r given her heart to God and was prepared for the end. During the earlier part of her sickness, just before the delerium, she told those present thai altt weald not recover, bade them all goodbye, gave a message to each brother and sister, then where and how she wished to be laid to rest, who she wished to conduct her funeral service, and made all arrangements. From that time to the end her only wish was to be with God. Often would she say, "I'm going to Heaven," "Why do you keep me here when I shall be so happy there, so happy. "How sweet it will be to be with God." "Don't try to keep me don't you see I want to go." Faithfully we carried out her last wishes. Silently we lowered her into the grave. Tenderly laid her to rest. Softly covered her from view. Lovingly laid our garlands of flowers on that new mound. Tearfully left that last resting placa Calmly thought of that Christian death, and asked— "O, death where is thy sting; O, grave where is thy victory?" W. Obituary Notes Win. M. Singerly, the unfortunate journalist and financier, died at his home in Philadelphia Sunday, of heart failure. Mr. Singerly was proprietor of the Philadelphia Record; also president of the Chestnut Street National Bank and the Chestnut Street Trust and Sav ings Fund, which failed a few months since.

Coulter who survives him and deeply feels hi-r loss. Thirteen children were born to them of whom five have already crossed the river lie fore our brother's turn came. In 1840 he united with the Presbyterian church and remained a consistent member of that church until he removed to For ward twp., when be united with the Petersville M. E. church of which church he was an official for the last conference year. He was a man belov ed by all,-affable and joyous. His home was always a place of welcome for tnin isters especially for his pastor. Gener ous toward the church of (Jod and help ing those who were in distress he leaves a fragrant memory. The funeral service was held in the M E. church at Petersville on Saturday Feb 19th 1898 The large concourse of people present testified to the general esteem m which the deceased was held. A deputation from the Chicora lodge of Odd Fellows attended and a large number of the mcintiers of the Renfrew and Conoqnenessing tents of the K. O.
