Monday afternoon Republicans began to poor into Butler from every direction and by 5:30 the principal workers from all parts of the county were on hand to welcome Col. William A. Stone, the Republican candidate for governor, who arrived on the P. & W. from Pitts burg al that hour. Col. Stone was accompanied by Wm L Shaffer. District Attorney of Chester Pa, and reporters of the principal newspapers of. the State. The party was escorted to the Willard by a hun dred Republicans. There Col. Stone dined and held an informal reception until nearly eight o'clock, when escort ed by the Germania bund and Sam Hughes' fife and drum corps, he repair ed to the Park Theatre. All parts of the auditorium were crowded and as the Republican candi date walked down the aisle and took his seat on the stage he received a rousing reception. Hon. Jos. B. Showalter. Republican candidate in this, the 25th Congressional district, Hon. John Dind inger, and Hon. J. N. Moore, candidates for Assembly, Hon. Alex. McDowell, Clerk of the House of Representatives' and Mr. Shaffer were also on the plat form. Chairman N C McCollough called the meeting to order, on motion of Newton Black Esq., Hon. J. D. McJunkin was choosen chairman, and the vice-presi dents were then called upon to take seats on the stage. In taking charge of the meeting Mr. McJunkin showed his usual tact and among other things stated 'that it was well known to the audience that he was an earnest sup porter of Hon. C. W. Stone for the gubernatorial nomination last spring, but the Harrisburg Convention had chosen a much lai ger Stone to bear its standard. If the smaller Stone was a good man to support, it is logical to argue that the larger Stone is a much bettor one.' He then introduced the next Governor of Pennsylvania amid great applause. Mr. Stone spoke for an hour. He called upon Republicans to disregard the Democratic cry of "State Issues" which they fail to present, to stand by the Republican standard of sound money and protective tarriff and to up hold Pres. McKindley 's policy of con ducting the late war and of expansion, and not to foroake him at the moment when a treaty of peace was about to be signed. He recalled the facts that when Penn sylvania dissapproved Republican ad ministration in 'B2 and '9O by electing Democratic governors, the Nation fol lowed suit both times by going Dem ocratic two years later. This should not be the case with McKinley. Fac tional differences should not rend the Republican party when it is facing the common enemy. Mr. Shaffer followed in an eloquent, impressive address. He called attention to the fact that thirty-seven new gov ernors and state legislatures, an entire House of Representatives, and twenty six U. S. senators are to be elected this fall and yet the Democrats claim that State and not National affairs are the issue of the day. At a late hour Maj. McDowell was introduced and as many people were leaving he began by saying "Those who go out will not be dissapointed, those who stay in will." Then the ' Rose of Sharon" pitched into the gubernatorial contest with all the humor and logic for which he is famous. Altogether the Rally was yery suc cessful. even beyond tho expectations of its promoters. Butler county will line up with an old time Republican majority.

McJnnkin's remarks upon assuming the chair were as follows: — FELLOW CITIZENS:—I thank yon heartily for this mark of distinction yon have so disinterestedly bestowed upon me in selecting me to preside over this meeting. As chairman it will not be expected that I should make extended remarks. We have assembled to hear others —dis tinguished gentlemen who will fnlly discuss the true issues of the campaign I might, however, say briefly that we are on the eve of a most important elec tion. As a nation we have been making history and heroes at lightning speed during the past year. Our great President, Wm. McKinley, gave ua th 6 key note to the action <>f citizens the other day in Chicago when he said, "we must stand together until we have settled all our troubles with foreigners, and especially with Spain, and then afterwards adjust onr disputes among ourselves. ' Yes, we must stand by our country, we must stand by oar administration at Washington. The administration being Republican it is surely the duty of Republicans to stand by it, and how can they do except by voting the Republican ticket. We must not let our peasonal disappointments, or the defeat of the ambition of our person al friends keep ns from performing our duty to onr party, its principles and its candidates. As many of yon know, I was in favor of the nomination of Hon. C. W. Stone for Governor but the Republican par ty, in its convention, duly constituted, saw fit to nominate a man, it is true, by the same name, except by the initials, and as you will presently see in much greater quantities. As the smaller Stone is now cordially supporting the larger one, his followers can safely likewise. Hon. C. W. Stone served for many years in Congress with his rival, knows him well and will cheerfully vote for him. And now let me say in conclusion-- beware of ante election rumors -ante election roorbacks —ante-election and cowardly arrests—eleventh hour reports and rumors of any kind. Do not vote against one man because another man has been charged with some offense which he has had no chance to defend against prior to the election. And now I have the pleasure of intro ducing to you the next Governor of Pennsylvania, whose home is in Pitts burg, our neighboring city, but whose fame is of the whole state and country, Hon. W. A. Stone. WE learn that a certain Mr. Vaughn, who was a "free silver orator in the last campaign, is making a ''•till hunt canvas of .tbe county in the interest of the Democratic candidate for Congress, Mr. Lockwood. While we have noth ing to say personally against Mr. Lock wood, he belongs to the Democratic par ty— is one of its Chief Priests in this county, and from the experience with the Democratic party and policy in re cent years, people should think twice before they vote for the Democratic candidate on the say so of this "free silver'' Mr. Vaughn. There may be others canvassing in the interest of the Democratic candi date, let Republicans lookout for them and beware. Our candidate, Hon. J. B. Showalter, on all National, State and other issues will be right, and in line with President McKinley's admin istration. So the thing for all Republi cans to do is to vote for J. B Showal ter. POLITICAL. According to a number of our es teemed contemporaries in the Twenty seventh Congressional district, there is a wonderful demand for Joe Sibley to serve as their representative. How this demand has been created is not entirely clear. The Hon Joseph Sibley has demonstrated to the satisfaction of all who believe in a sound currency and protection, and who do not admire pompous self-laudation or sanctimony, that he is, point device, the very man of all men who should not be in Con gress. I Although Judge Simonton, of Harris bnrg, has decided that the renomina tion of Congressman Butler, of the Chester-Delaware district, is invalid on account of the fact that only a portion of the Delaware county delegates were present at the convention, Butler de clares he will run on his nomination jiapere, as he did two years ago, when he was elected. Jack Robinson, who has passed much of his time at Wash ington since he was out of Congress, has all along informed his constituents that he would be an independant candi date. Republicans of the Sixth district say it will be a closer race between But ler and Robinson than it was two years ago but that the party split will not elect a Democrat. Hon. J. B. Showalter spoke at the meeting in New Castle. Friday evening, at Sharon Saturday evening Dr. S. C. Swallow speaks in the Stein hall, Friday evening. He will lie ac companied by Volney B. Gushing and Horace Geiger. Wanamaker has come out for Jenks for Governor MANY important matters will be be fore our next Legislature, and it is im portant that we have good reliable men to represent us. Hon James N Moore and Hon John Dindiuger have been tried, did good service f>nd were true to the interests of their constitu ents. and with theii experience in legis lative work will be much more able than heretofore to render good service in the next Legislature. Let all who desire exjierienced and honest representation in the halls of legislation vote for Moore and Dindin ger. Itctiirn of the Fifteenth. Saturday evening's Pittsburg pajters stated that Sect'y Alger had ordered that the 14th and 15th Penn a volunteers 1* mustered out instead of the 2nd and !lrd of Philadelphia which have been furloughed for sixty days past It is needless to say that thousands of hearts in this part of the state were made glad by the news. The officers re|>ort that seventy-five per cent of their men want to stay in the service. The following from a Butler l>oy to his father sounds different: Dear father:—We saw in the paper to night that we are going to be sent home The regiment turned out 7 or H hundred strong and paraded all around The col onel tried to stop ns and failed. We called him in proper shape The band played "home sweet home" and we sang "we want to go home." We asked him where the 75 ]>er cent was he said wanted to remain in the service, he made no reply but said we had showed our numbers and should disperse. Two men are under arrest but we will get them out by our testimony and outside witnesses We leave tomorrow for Philadelphia. Camp Meade. Oct. 24. SPAIN has provisionally accented the American refusal of all responsibility for tbe Cuban debt REPfBLICAX I>tTY. Let no Republican be induced to vote the Democratic or other ticket on ac onnt of the "hue and cry being so in dustriously circulated by the Demo crats and the alleged "Good Govern ment Party." headed by the more or less famous Rev. Dr. Swallow In some sections Swallow may be a repre sentative man. bat we. in this "neck o woods, want a man for a leader who is honest and trnthfnl. and m whom we have confidence. Can so mnch be said for this Rev Swallow? Let the record speak. The Rev. Dr. publishes a newspaper in Har risburg: in that paper he made certain specific charges against certain Repub lican State officials, and among them Gov. Hastings. He was. by some of the officials, in vited into court to prove and make good his charges. He was indicted for l ; .bel—publishing false and malicious charges, (case No. 6#, Sessions of IH9S.) In due time the case came on to trial, twelve of the citizens of Dauphin county were sworn "to try the case according to the evidence The paper containing the charges was put in evidence, and the Rev. Dr. ad mitted the paper was his paper. Ihe prosecution resteu. The defendant. Rev. Swallow, was given the floor to prove his charges. He proceeds with his case, and after taking up much time of the court, he was given full and ample opportnn'ty) all he has to offer in support of his charges is laid before the court and jury, arguments of learned counsel were made, the court instructed the jury as to the law. the jury retires and in a short time returns, and these twelve men -neighbors of Dr. Swallow, in the same county in which he lives -say. "we find the de fendant guilty as charged in the indict ment," and the Rey. Dr. Swallow is sentenced to pay a tine of $50:1, and costs of prosecuting the suit. This is what the conrt record at Har risburg shows, a court that stands high in the judiciary of the state. Now what does this really mean, what does it show? It simply shows that this man Rev. Dr. Swallow has made a lot ot charges that were not true, or in our homely way of stateing it. he simply did not tell the truth when he made those charges. Now a man of that kind may be regarded as a good man in some localities, but we don't know any one in our good old county who will en dorse a man that won't tell the truth, even if heltear the high sounding title ot Rev. Dr., for its an old saying, "if a person is untruthful in one thing he will be in others. ' This whole matter of charges and reiteration thereof re minds ns of the campaign the Democra cy made during the first campaign of Grover Cleveland. They said "The Republicans have been robbing the peo ple, they have stolen piles of the peo ple's money, we cannot say how much because they have the treasury, they have the books and money under their control, but give us the opportunity to go over the books and count the cash and we will show the frauds and steal ing." etc., and so they howled to the end of the campaign. What was the result t A great many well meaning people thought there must be something wrong, voted with the Democrats 01 staid at. home and Grover and his crowd were elected. They were in high feath er. great expectations were ahead of them, they were going tc show what thieves the Republicans had been. A Democratic treasurer was appointed b> Grover and his secretary. This Demo cratic treasurer would not receipt t h«- Republican treasurer until the book were audited and the money counted, they v/ere very particular, they were hunting for fraud and theivery. An auditing committee, consisting of two Democrats and one Republican, alt good accountants, was appointed. The\ go to work, in the bond division of the treasury they found the books called for so much, they counted the bonds and they found them all there just as the books for. They next take up the gold department, the l*>oks called for so mnch gold, they counted it and found the amount correct. Next they go to the silver and that turns out the same way, all was found correct They next take up the green back and currancj department, there they would find the great defalcations they had talked about, the Democrats were then great lovers of "greenbacks," but when the\ got through they found the greenbacks in the vaults balanced exactly with what the ls»oks called for. dollar for dollar. What will they do? There is only one more chance to show fraud and stealing, and all the iniquities they had charged to the. Republicans, and that is in the nickle and penny division At the counting they go, every package is gone over, and when near the end they found a shortage, the pennies did not correspond with what the books called for, one package was short thirteen cents, which the Republican treasurer made good. Then his Democratic successor re ceipted him in full and he was dis charged from all responsibility. So after all their chargesabout Republican defalcation, corruption, and every vile thing they could say in their campaign speeches and papers, after a careful count of the cpsh, and auditing of the books, the Democratic Treasurer was compelled to give hia Republican pre decessor a certificate that all the money the books called for was in the Treasury when he took charge, save the thirteen cents whi<>h was made good by the out going Treasurer This campaign in many respects is like the former one, and when we have one of the chief candidates in it a con victed libeler, a man who told things that were not true, that he could not prove when given the opportunity, it is well for Republicans to think a little before they leave the Republican party on the mere say-so of interested persons. Tb<- Republican party haa if glorious record, one eyery American citizen can well be proud of, bus done more for the good of humanity than any other politi cal organization in thu history of the world, as we could easily prove had we the space at our disposal. If there are any abuses or anything wrong, the Re publican party is great enough, and broad enough, and honest enough to make all corrections. It would be a poor remedy to vote f,.Swallow and thereby help the Democratic party, a narty with a record behind it that its leaders are only too glad to get away frotu. Republicans, think the matter over, in the light of past history, and we venture to say no on<> will have any hesitation coining to the conclusion that safety and duty lie in voting the straight Republican ticket.
