The Local Political Situation.
We receive the most cheering advices from
all parts of, the county in regard to the po-.
litical outlook. The local meetings held in
all the different neighborhoods during the
last few weeks have been unusually large and
enthusiastic, and show unmistakably that the
people are 'wide awake and thoroughly in
earnest in the work of snuffing out the
mongrels and rebuking the-trading politi
cians. It is evident that Greeleyisra, so far
as this region is concerned, i ts already to
be numbered among the dead isms" which
the New York Tribune has exploited and
run into the ground during the past genera
tion. The old white coat has lost its Charm
for therople of Tioga county, and `!Honest
Horace" will nevermore be looked up to as
a political guide by our voters, nor as'an ag
ricultural oracle by our farmers. . Tisk idol
is broken, and is found of the coarsest clay
It will never again be set up.
It is only necessary, to show the desperate
straits in which the coalitionists find them
selves, to ,recall‘ the fact that their county
ticket proper, as published by their princi
ple organ last Week, consisted of but two
names, and that one of those was that of a
straight Republican who publicly repudiates
the whole affitir. When any party, within
three weeks of an important election, during
a Presidential canvass, finds itself in such a
predicament, everybody must see that it is
in a mighty bad way. The fact is, that each
wing of the Democracy undertook to cheat
the other, and the "little game" on each side
was so openly and bunglingly played that
the whole crew at once became the laugh
ing-stock Of every honest man in the County,
and excited the disgust and contempt of their
slim crowd of followers. Between the "gross
ignorainuses" who cant and won't swallow
"boiled! crow;" the , lonesome "Liberals"
who fjei that.they have been badly bamboo
zled,and the trading Democrats who are anx
ious from interests - 4111)16w-, to "Amp bands"
with bqth the other sulky factions, it is evi
dent there is a "big disgust" all around.
WhetOr they will manage to patch up a
county ticket of some sorelfor the looks of
the thing remains to be seen; but it is of very
little consequence whether they do or not. It
looks now as though they would make
_a
spasmodic effort for Mr. Sherwood's election,
trying, to run him in again on his personal
popularity. But that tack isn't a good one
to sail on this year. Their condidate has
been. lio Congress, and has made his mark
there, and although not a very prominent
one it . is' found to be a very black one. Fine
manners nor personal respect can't cover• it
up nor blot it out, and while it stands there
is smtill chance of securing "complimentary
votes" in Tioga county. Besides,;Mr. Sher
wood is opposed by a man of unquestioned
integrity vho is every whit as able as him
self, and who is a square, sound Republican
of great personal popularity. He will run
fully up to his party - ticket, and in some parts
of the district much ahead of it, leaving Mr.
Sherwood in no doubt on the 9th ofj)ctober
as to who is elected. The only fruit of Dem
ocratic labors in this region this year will be
one delegate to the Constitutional Conceit
tions---that is provided Mr. - Victor A. Elliott
doesn't succeed in smashing the regular can
didate. His intentions are'savage enough,
no doubt; but as we she nttss.be called upon
to attend the funeral, whoever
tered in that fight, it isn't worth while to
speculate on the name of the corpse.
While this is the forlorn condition of the
motley oppostion, the Republicans are in ex
cellent spirits, and are daily growing more
confident of electing Hartranft and the whole
State ticket, Ross and the whole county tick
et, and burying the mongrels so deep that
the attempt will never again be made to trade
off a shaky Republican President for aDem
ocratic Governor and Congressman, in this
generation at least. As will be seen by ref
erence to our editorial columns, local meets
ings are to be held this week and next in dif
ferent parts of the county. The gentlemen
who has given themselves to this work du
ring the present campaign are deserving of
the warmest consideration at the hands of all
Republicans. But valuable as their work is,
it cannot accomplish everything. A concert
ed effort must be made by the Republicans
of each election precinct to get out and poll
their full vote on election day. This is the
great point; and preparations should be
made to that end at once. Make a complete
and carefu* classified list of the voters and
then see that every man of them votes for the
Whole ticket on election day. If this is not.
done, all our work of every sort will be wast
ed; but if it is done, we promiSe our friends
such glorious news as will make them proud
er than eVer of the fact that they are mem
bers of the Republican party and citizens of
" Old Tioga."
The Trouble with the Mails.
During the last week the people of the
whole county have been greatly incommo
ded by the derangement of the mails, caused
by the refusal of the Railroad . Companies to
perform the service nt the price offered by
the Post Office Department. We received
no mail at all on Monday the 16th instant.—
Last Tuesday the Postmasters at Corning,
Wellsboro and Blossburg made arrange
ments by which the Mails for both routes
were sent' by teams ot ) er the whole lir>.—
That arrangement lasted -a couple of days,'
and was then discontinued, 'and the mails
sent by the ,Northern Central Road, reach
ing us from Troy. The result was 'that cor
respondence which should have been hers
Thursday did not reach us until Saturday.
As the mutter affects. nearly - every resident
of the county, we detail below the exact
cause of the dead-lock, as we understand it.
The President of the Fall Brook Compa
ny, acting in concert with the Tioga Rail
road Company, recently notified the Depart
ment that those Companies declined to carry
the mails over the Blossburg and Corning
and \Velhboro and Lawrenceville Railroads
at the rate offered, fifty dollars
. per mile.—
For the lines between Corning and Bless
burg and between Wellsboro and Lawrence
ville they asked seventy-five dollars per mile
for twelve services each way per *week per
annum.
The Department replied that the returns
submitted by the Companies rendered indis
putable the propriety of assigning their roads
to the third class of railroad mail routes, and
that to routes of that class the maximum rate
of pay allowable under the law is fifty dol
lars per mile per annum. The law makes it
the duty of the Postmaster General to ar
range railroad routes in three classes, accord
ing to the size of the mails, the speed at
which they are-carried, and the frequency
and importance of the service, and fixed the
.maximum rates of allowance for the several
classes at S3C) per mile for the first, $lOO for
the second, and $5O for the third, allowing
an addition of ?fi per cent. if one-half the •
service on any route shall be required to be
performed in the night season. Thus the.
law imposes upon the Department the duty;
of classifying the routes ; determines what I
facts shall be used as a guide in the perform-'
ance of that duty, and prescribes limits which
it absolutely forbids-the Postmaster General
to transcend in allowing compensation for
the several classes of service. The first feet
required by Outlaw to be considered is th%
11"v.e.of the'ronils, because that deterniines the
amount ef.poltAl revenue on which the Gov
ernment mainly relics,todefroy
,the cost of
the service. -
_ - In ,cartying mit the intentions:of the law,
it is found by returns obtained upon a uni
form plan, from nearly all the railroad routes
in the country, that the .average,-;weight of
mails conveyed over routesi receiving $5O
per mile is about 200 pounds per day,. and of
routes, receiving $75 about 500 .pounds- per {
day, A discrimination.* is, made in - favor of
roads' carrying the lesser quantities, but V , e'ft''
being paid, where the amount carried 6, °vet
si. and ono-half tons per day,..,'
,On the main
route between ..Corning and;BlossbUrg the
average is 225 pounds, to Morris - Ann 41
pounds, and to Arnot2s pounds, making-the
average of that main route and branches
194 pounds per day. On the route between
*ellsbare - end Lawrenceville - the average
amount is 120 pounds .per day. In view of
these facts, the Department announces that
the Government cannot, in any event, under
the law, allow any excess Over the rate of
$5O per mile per annum.
During the corrlespondenee on the subject
the companies hate insisted on $76 per mile
for two services eh way per day between
Blossburg and C ! ning and
,Wellsboro and
ef
Lawrenceville. o far as the people of this !
neighborhood ar concerned, we are sure '
they would be entirely satisfied with one ser
vice each way per day. As recently ar
ranged, we received a through mail at - ten! .
o'clock at night, and the return throUgh Mail,
'left at six in the morning, and not one in ten:
of our citizens ever went to the post office
between those hours. If the people of with
valley can receive their daily mail by the
morning train and send it out by the after
noon one, we believe they will be amply ac
commodated and fully satisfied: We trust
some arrangement of this sort will be speed
ily made by the Department and the .*om-
panics, for, as the snail arrangements—or
rather disarrangements—now are, some por
tions of the county are cut off from all postal
communication with the rest of mankind.—
As we write, we learn that an agent of the !
Department was expected at Corning yester
day
to make some arrangement, if possible,
' for the resumption of the service by the rail
roads. It is certainly to be hoped that his
efforts to that end may meet with immediate
success.

FIRE IN CHATHAM. - Editor Agitator:
The barn of Ashley Short, of Chatham, was
consumed by fire Sunday evening, Sept. 15,
between the hours of 9 and 10. It was a first
class barn just erected the past season. The
property consumed therein consisted of four
horses, two double harnesses, single harness
new buggy, Utica wagon, new fanning mill, ,
together with all Mr. Short's hay, grain, and
farming implements.
One span of horses and the buggy were the
property of his brother G. W. Short. There
was no insurance on these. Mr. Ashley Short
had a slight insurance on his property.
The brothers snstained a heavy loss. , The
tire was the work of an incendiary.

Death of John Fox
Mr. John Fox died at the residence Of his
son-in-lavi, Mr. A. 06 Witter,'Eit Troy, Fri
day evening, Sept. 13th, after .an illness of
about two months. His health had been fail
ing for a number of years. Having become
blind from cataract or the eyes, he went to
Elmira to be treated by Dr. VpDeGraff, and
after reco',,vering somewhat from an operation
he returned on his way home as far as Troy,
stopping at Mr. Witter'sio,rest a few, days,
and he was there suddenly. confined to his
bed. His condition from the first, was such
as to give but little promise that he would
ever recover. He received .every care that
an affectionate family and many friends
could give to snake him comfortable.
Ho was seventy-one years of age and one
of the first inhabitants of Mainsburg, having
come 'here forty years ago last' February.
He at once opened a store, the first
_one Over
kept in this place, and he,rernained in the
mercantile business until two years ago,
when his age and declining health oi:impelled
him to retire. During these forty years of
his residence here, many changes have taken
place; one generation nearly _has passed
away and another. One, grown up. Many
have come and many gone. What was but
a Oece of low swamp land, covered with logs
when Mr. Fox came here is - now the land
on ,'which this pleasant village stands; the
.wilderness around here has been changed in
to ii rich and beautiful farming country.,
_ During - isll this time Mr. Fox had remained=
steadily in his store, gaining friends, confi
dence and esteem, and never losing..any of
them. .He was easy with-his creditlys and a
benevolent man. Said ttia . dy f4hen
our family suffered, for food in early times,
because my father spent his earnings for
whisky, we could always ask Mr. Fox with
confidence, and he never hesitated to help
us." He has thus spent the important part
of his life here, and is widely known and
highly respected by all. His remains were
brought to his home here on Sunday in a
rich and appropriate casket, arid-:the funeral
was held his residence Monday, the 16th
'instant. I was conducted by Rev. Isaac
Everett of the M. E. Church, to which Mr.
Fox adhertql. He will be remembered as an
honest man, a good citizen, and consistent

Started for home about 4 o'clock on Saturday i
afternoon, and was apparently in good spit-
its, as she talked and laughed when she left.
She was seen on the way by different persons.,
who knew her, until she took a by : path
through the fields and woods; after this she
was not seen, until the family searched for
her on Sunday morning, when she was found
by her children . , hanging to a. low. liMb of a l

ner, to hold an inquest. He selected twelve
men in proper order, and proceeded to the
place where the tragedy occurred, and ,hold

There is great excitement prevailing in the

it was a case of suicide, and that the verdict
