At the Republican County Conven tion of Lawrence county, in New Cas tle, Monday, Postmaster J. B. Brown was re-elected Couuty Chairman by a large majority over Judge Wallace's man, and the new Committee passed a resolution declaring the Republicans of the county will support for Governor the nominee of the Republican party, irrespective of whom he may be. This is practically a victory for Elkin, as the delegates to the State Convention bad previously been declared to be against Elkin and in fitvor of anyone who could defeat him. J. A. McMillan of Soott twp was nominated for County Commissioner, and M. McConnell and R R. Pomeroy for Assembly, R. M. Campbell for Clerk of Courts, J. A. DeNormandie, who was serving the unexpired term as County Treasurer was again named. Acheßon of Washington county had no opposition for Congress. Col. W. J. Bryan recently spoke of Ex-President Grover Cleveland as a "political corpse." Mr. Cleveland, in referring to the matter, spoke of Col onel Bryan as an "afflictive visitation." There comes a time in the life of every man when he might be truthfully de scribed as a "political corpse," but an "afflictive visitation!" It is too, too horrible!"— Ex. Gen. Frank Reeder of Easton, Re publican state chairman and also Penn sylvania commissioner of banking, ar rived in Washington, Tuesday forenoon, and held conferences with Senators Quay and Penrose, Clerk McDowell of the house and several members of the delegation in the house. Late that afternoon he joined Gov. Stone and party on their special train en route to the Charleston exposition. As state chairman of the party, Gen. Reeder has so far been nentral in the fight between the friends of Attorney General Elkin on oue side and Senators Quay and Penrose on the other, regard ing the governorship; he now real izes that the time has come when he may be called upon to declare bis posi tion. His visit to Washington was to as certain from the senators their complete plans for opposing the nomination of Mr. Elkin,and on the way to Charleston he will hear the Elkin side of the quarrel The Governor and partv of State of ficials were in the city for several hours and several times were within speaking distance of Senators Quay an Penrose, but the Governor did not pay his re ■pects to the Senators. Neither did the Senators pay any call of ceremony. The snubbing was deliberate on both sides. The Senators knew the Governor was there aud the Senators knew the Governor was passing through the city. The last time Governor Stone was in Washington he called at the home of Senator Quay, and remained in close conference with him nntil nearly 3 o'clock in the morning. That was on election night last fall. The Greene, Fayette and Somerset Co. Congressional Committees met at the Monongabela House in Pittsburg, Tuesday, but failed to agree on a method'of mominating a Congressman. MR. EDITOR:— I learn from the morn ing papers that Judge Greer has been in Washington city seeing the bosses. He tells them that our delegates to the State Convention will vote for whoever Senator Quay desires Our people, I doubt not, have great respect for the judgment of Senator Quay on public matters. bnt it is not complimentary to our State Delegates to say that they will take orders from any state boss or leader even Knowing them well as I do I feel warranted in saying that if elpcted they will*- honestly reflect and obey the judgment of the Republicans that elected them, regardless of ontside orders Greer was evidently trying to secure ontside help in his hopeless can vass for re-election. By the way were I an editor 1 would try and secure a copy of each of Greer's campaign letters. They are literary gems indeed. By all means have copies of them saved. The association of great names alone is worthy of note-juet look at it, "Lincoln, Grant, Garfield aud Greer." AN OBSERVER. QUAY VERSUS ELKIN. Friday last was "Black Friday' f«>r John P. Elkin— Quay told to him to "come off" and Elkin refused. Durham sided with Quay. Elkin aud Eyre of Chester county hed a conference with Quay in Philadelphia and Elkin afterward* announced that he was a candidate to the finish and ! made this statement: "I refuse to be ordered out, bargain •ed out, dealt out or forced out of the j canvass for Governor. lam a candi ; date to the finish and will continue an | agressive canvass until the Republican convention shall make its nomination. A majority of the Republican voters ' should determine who the nominee shall be. From the outset I have ap pealed to the people for support and will ! continue this policy to the end. Fiom assurances received from all over the State today, I have every reason to be lieve that my friends will be successful in the convention. The American peo ple believe in fair play, and I rest my case with them." That night Quay made this state ment: — "I am a friend of General Elkin, and if I was permitted to name the Govern or of Pennsylvania I would name Mr. Elkin. But 1 regard his candidacy un der present condititions as threatening to Republican success upon the State, Congressional and Legislative tickets, and if lam a delegate to the Republi can State Convention I cannot support hirti libave no candidate for the posi tion of Governor or any other position The selection of candidates is for the convention, whick, I believe, will be an intelligent, impartial and deliberative body." When Insurance Commissioner Dur ham was shown this statement he said: "I concur with Senator Quay." Many hours before Quay was visited by Elkin. the latter was informed by a mutual friend that the Senator urged him to withdraw for the reason that his nomination wonld jeopardize Penrose's candidacy for re-election to the United States Senate by the coming State Leg islature, and would imperil the party iri a number of Congressional districts also. Qaay's message added that,should Elkin persist in the race, the Senator would feel obliged at an early day to make a public statement of his reasons for urging the withdrawal. After a long conterence on this message, Eyre announced that Elkin had "gone too far in the fight to quit." Elkin sent word to Quay that he could conceive of no conditions demanding his withdraw al, and his name would go before the convention, irrespective of what might be its action. To a friend he added: "I decline absolutely to withdraw from the contest. I will be a candidate if I get only 10 delegates." The Pittsburg "Gazette" approves of Quay's course and the "Dispatch" thinks the situation has been "somewhat cleared." Th« "Times" reviews the situation and ends its editorial this way: "The fact cannot be gainsaid that the present political situation in Pittsburg and Allegheny county is the sole and moving cause of Mr. Elkin's downfall, if that downfall is to be accomplished. He is to be made the victim of a sit uation which he largely helped to bring about, and to add to the bitter ness of his fate tbe men whom he helped and the men who were his most active and earnest coadjutors in the work are now those who have turned to rend him. The Pittsburg situation is the result of the ripper bill. The ripper bill was the act of a corrupted Legislature, and this Legislature was corrupted from the day of its organiza tion to the day of its adjournment by the very same coterie of high-minded gentlemen who have now induced Sen ator Quay to i nterfere in their behalf upon the question of the Gubernatorial nominee. Meanwhile it is to be hoped that Senator Quay will be pleased to in form the 358 delegates to the State convention and the 700,000 Republicans of the State whom be intends, in the exercise of his sovereign power,to nomi nate for chief executive of the second Commonwealth of tbe Union." A dispatch from Washington, dated Saturday, said: ' 'The selection of J. Donald Cameron to take the place of John P. Elkin as the candidate of the Pennsylvania State organization for the Republican nomination for Governor is regarded as a certainty. There is good ground for believing tbat he has already been chos en and has practically consented. At torney General Knox and Major Gener al Brooke will not be considered until Cameron positively declines. Cameron will decline if much opposition is devel oped. He does not want it unless it is handed to him on a highly polished and embossed platter. Representative Deemer expressed hostile views because Cameron is a free silver man." The Philadelphia Inquirer which for years has been the organ of Qnay and his friends in that city, is outspoken for "Elkin—the Candidate of the People," and speaks as follows: "A display of bossism at Harrisbnrg probably would be ruinous. Mr. Elkin has done his fighting in the open. He announced himself as a can didate and invited opposition. To try to destroy him at this late day, after the grand display of popular strength that he has made, and solely at the behest of a couple of wealthy gentlemen of Pitts burg, would be not only extremely un wise, but extremely unjust. The people detest injustice—and they hate ingratitude. All honor to Mr. Elkin. He will not get out because a pair of spiteful Pitts burgers demand that he shall. He would prove a traitor to the people who have so grandly stood by him at the primaries should he do so. His declaration of his determination to remain in the contest in spite of all attemps to coax him or to order him out is the manly utterance of a manly man. "I will not be ordered out, bargained out, dealt out or forced out." Those are his words, and they are such words as the manly voters of Penn sylvania will delight to hear. For Governor of Pennsylvania, John P. Elkin. And if those who wonld dispose of him at the commands of a couple of franchise grabbers of Pittsburg went to know how the people feel about it, by all means let them produce their can didate - any candidate under the face of the sun—and bring him before the voters. If Mr. Elkin cannot defeat any person they may name, then he will re tire, but he will not retire under any other circumstances." A most interesting feature of the pres ent disturbance among the Republicans of Pennsylvania is the apparent eager ness of so-called insurgents to welcome Quav as a party reformer. This was to De expected, of course, of those follow ers of the organization whose objection to Elkip is merely personal, or whose desire for reform extends no farther than revenue upon Gov. Stone. But for these who have been eloquently pro testing against "Quayism" and its dangerous tyranny to accept his dis missal of Elkin as proof of a lofty pur pose of political regeneration is even more remarkable than the disposition to revolt betrayed by professing believers in the machine. It would not be so remarkable if this were Quay a first appearance as a re former In truth, this is one of his favorite roles. Time and again, when his power was threatened by a revolt against party debauchery, has he come forward as the champion of reform, re -1 buking the excesses of his followers and holding up the standard of high political ' morality. And just as often as his pur- I pose was accomplished has the old order j been re-established with increased in | tensity, so that it may be stated as a : general proposition that the depravity ! of the State government has been in di ; rect proportion to the purity of the j previous campaign promises.—Ex. ■ Information which has come to the I surface within the last 48 hours re- I moves all doubt as to the genuineness of | M. S. Quay's decree prohibiting the ] nomination of John P. Elkin for Gover nor and of Elkin's determination to re sist the mandate and make a fight to a finish. The inner history of the deal in pursuance of which Cikin is cast aside will probably become a matter of public knowledge within the next few days. Meanwhile enough is known to establish the fact that public policy has nothing to do with the case: that Elkin is not be ing retired because of his association with Gov Stone, but that the real ob ject is to use the present disturbed political condition of the State as a pre text for turning over the State govern ment to a mouejed junta representing certain powerful corporate interests The game is a deep one and it might have succeeded if the devices usually em ployed co get a candidate out of the way without friction had been successful in Elkin's case. Qnay and the persons be hind hnn, however, in this instance, leckoned without their host. Insteai of finding Elkin a convenint instrument for the accomplishment of their pur poses, they find in him a most dangerous antagonist.—Pittsburg Leader. Fears Hydrophobia. Joshua M'Call, of Franklin township, observed that two of his cows had been bitten by a stray dog. Mr. McCall had the dog driven from the { remises and paid no further attention to the ter until a few-days ago. when one of the cows was noticed to become drow~y and refnsed to eat the food placed be fore her. Mr McCall, who had almost forgotten the incident of the dog-biting prepared a medicament for the animal .which he administered. As the cow manifested a disposition not to swallow the medicine. Mr. McCall took the medicine in his hand, which was covered with abrasions and a nnmber of cuts, and forced the prepara tion by placing it far into her throat with his hand. The cow grew worse, refusing to eat anything put before her, and within a short time the other which had been bitten by the dog became affected in identically the same manner. Mr. Mc- Call treated her as he had the other' forcing the medicine down her throat with his hand. Neither of the cows would eat any thing from the time the first drowsiness was noticed, and both soon developed symptoms of hydrophobia. They both died with all the manifestations of that Mr. McCall immediately left his home for Pittsburg, aud was admitted to the Magee Pathological institute in connec tion with Mercy hospital, where he is now being treated by the Pasteur method. This treatment requires at least 20 days, but the hospital authori ties hope to discharge Mr. McCall from the hospital by the 20th.—From last Sunday's Post. Mortgage Burned One of the most happy events in the history of the Butler U. P. church was the burning. Tuesday evening, of a mortgage which has encumbered the church property at McKean and Jeffer son streets for the last 12 years. In or der to redeem the mortgage and destrov it, it was necessary during the past 12 months to raise S3OOO. F. H. Bole was chairman of the committee which had this task in hand and successfully ac complished it, and he was Chairman of Tuesday evening's jollification. The ceremonies commenced with an anthem, followed by Scripture reading and prayer by Rev. Dr. McKee; John T. Kelly spoke of the church of our fathers; Jos L. Purvis on the church of the present, and .lames M. Galbreuth on what the church will be to our child ren: Mrs. J S. McKee read a paper en titled "What Mean These Sfones." in which she told of the women's part in building and paying for the church: Mr. Bolt; gave some statistics o? his canvass for the £'.ooo, of the 505 contributor". 57 removed during the year and 32 died, of (3232 1!• subscribed $3227.07 was paid. After paying the mortgage *202 remain ed over which is to be applied to the mission fund The defnnct mortgage was then brought out on a tray nnd alighted can dle applied to it by Master Win G. Douthett, Jr. After the burning the congregation repaired to the Sabbath School rocin, which was abundantly decorated with the stars and stripes, and partook of ti lunch furnished by the ladies. The church was organized in 181!) by Rev. Isaiah Niblock who was pastor until 18(54. a period of 45 years Other pastors were Rev Smith and Dr. Fergu son, aud Dr.' J. S. McKee for the pi;st 18 years. The present building was erected in 18!)4 at a cost of $83,000. Prospect. In spite of the heavy snow and had roads a fair sized audience met the lecturer on Monday evening, April 7, Prof. C. C.

It is a little east of former developments. •'After negotiators that have l*cn carried on for a period extending through many years the Standard Oil Company has finally obtained absolute control of the production of illuminat ing oil in the United States Up to about six months ago the big oil corpo ation practically controlled the entire ontput. with the exception of that in West Virginia, which during the pant 10 years, has been the rnecca of the in dependent producer. But through :: succession of deals that have occurred since the beginning of this year the pro duction of this territory is now also controlled by the Standard and within the past few days that corporation has obtained possession of the production of its foremost rival, GufTey <V Galey, of, Pittsburg, and is now in undisputed pos session of at leHst 00 per cent of the Itroducing wells of West Virginia."— 'ittsburg Times.

C, last Friday, aged 84 years. T. DKWITT TALMAGE. Rev. L>r. T. DeWitf Talmage died at his home ia Washington D. C., last Saturday evening. Dr. Talmage had l>eeij ill for some weeks and was un conscious for more than 60 hours before death came. The immediate cause was heart complications, induced by a severe attack of grip Until he went South in February, Dr. Talmage was in his usual health. While ia the City of Mexico early in March he was attacked by urip and was quite ill for two weeks. When he returned home the long journey made him worse fie arrived in Washington March 14 and at once took to his bed He has suffered from throat trouble for many years, and that trouble became acute, and was complicated with a weak and disturbed action of his heart. He grad ually failed until a few days ago the physicians announced that he could not recover. The patient gradually grew weaker until life passed away so quietly that even the members of the family, all of whom were watching at the bedside, hardly knew that he had gone. He rose from a farmer's boy to be one of the most famous divines in the coun try. He was born at Boundbrook. Somerset county, N. J., January 7, 1835. He whs the youngest of 12 chil dren, seven of whom were l>oys. When 18 years old he joined the church and the following year entered the University of New York. His bril liancy at studies wbs rather dimmed by his talent for oratory and his dramatic capacity. This attracted attention to him <'U exhibition days. As a scholar in belles lettres he was without a rival among his fellow students. He graduated in May, 1853, and his speech at Niblo's Garden on "The Moral Effects of Sculpture and Architecture" aroused the audience to a pitch of en thusiasm that was rare. The publica tion of this address was the first literary article of Mr. Talmage ever printed. Resolutions of Kespect.
