HSPOBLICJO L\ Pouts, Pa., October 7th, 1892. TO 'N AND COUNTY NEWS. The foliaire it beautiful. Subscribe for the Rk putt Lie AN". The fair is in session this week. This is fine weather for building railroads. Ca ididates wi I be plenty at the fair this week See that the decayed matter is re moved from the cellar. The REPUBLICAN is the only live paper published in the county. The cheapest plneo in town to buy all kinds of goods—is at 1". J. Heeler's. E. P. Cheney of North Orwell, Bradford county, is visiting friends at LaPorte. The Bradford county fair held at Towanda last week, was a success in every respect. Just think of it, a suit of clothes for §4.00. You will find them at T. J. Keeler's store. The LaPorte band has reorganized and will meet for practice, Tuesday evenings of each week. FOR SALE. —A fresh milch cow a' a reasonable price. For information apply to Mrs M. C. Lauer. Mrs. Wo. Mullen of Montgomery, was calling on friends at LaPorte, Thursday and Friday of last week. County politics will be warm from now until the Bth of Nov. The fair will be the introduction of this hot wave. J. V. Rettenbury the old reliable jeweler of Dushore, has a new adv. in the REPUBLICAN this week. Ob serve it. , Chief engineer John Marston, Jr., of the W. it N. 8., purchased a fine horse of J. C. Botsford ofNordmont last week. The circulation of the Republi can is steadily increasing and soon we will have our expected 1500 circulation. If you want to see a store chuck up full of the latest styles of notions, dry goods, hats and caps, &c., call at T. J. Keeler's. A Judge defined '"Esquire" as a term which "includes anybody who has nothing to do, and is outside the workhouse." Corbett says he will fight Jack son. That's right If he can beat people black nnd blue he ought to get away with One color alone. The steam drill on the railroad was put to work last week and is quite a novelty to our p»o,ile. Lots of visitors go down to see it work The old soldier boys say that Th mas S. Simmons is the propel candidate to elect Sheriff this fall and tliev mean to do all in their power for his success. Mrs. Dr. iiill accompanied by her two chi'dren, of LaPoite, are visit ing friends at Hughesvilie. During Mrs. Hill's absence the Doc. regis ters at the LaPorte Hotel. T J. Keeler has just returned from Philadelphia with the best and cheapest l'ne of general merchandise ever brought to LaPorte. Call and get prices before going elsewhere. Henry Upinan of LaPorte will build a residence on his lot on West Main street, this fall. Henry Karge has the contract of erecting the building. A good job can be •expected. The Dushore people sav, they get more home news in the REPUBLICAN than they do in ti e Dushore papers. The fact of the matter is, the Du shore editors are away behind the times. James MeErn a little son of Mr. and Mrs. John McErn of LaPorte, fell off a soffa and brot<e its arm. Sunday. Dr. Hill attended the child and it is doing as well as coul 1 lie expected. They say that editor Alvord of the Athens News is the only kickrr on the Republican nominees in Brad ford county. What a stir Alvord will make. The odor that will arise will be staunch fusionist. The Peter I). Miller resi 'cnce on South Muncv street and occupied by Atty. H. T. Downs, has recently been painted and presents a very creditable a pre i ranee. ,T. W. Au« miller of the 'Mere did Mie work. T. J. Keeler lias put the price of his ready made suits of clothes down to rock bottom prices. We propose to undersell all dealers in ready made clothing in this vicinity and if you don't believe it, give us a £.all and get our prices, James Miller general superintend ent of the Muncy Valley tannery, was in town doing business, Mon <lay. Mrs. J. 11. Spencer and little ■ laughter, Miss Mablc, returned from a three week's visit at Kanoza Lake, N. Y. on Wednesday of last week. Mr. E. M.and Miss AnnaSebring of Stroudsburg, are visiting their brother N. C. Sebring of LaPorte. lid. has secured a position and will remain bere. We heard a Democrat estimate Tom Simmons' majority las-t week at 150 and said he would put up a wager that he would have 100. This is encouraging. Ella Tripp the little daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Tripp of La- I'orte, is ill with scarlatina. Iler case was considered quite dangerous Sunday, but at present she is re covering. Thos. Simmon* the people's can didate for Sheriff was in town Mon day. Tom was en route for Forks ville where he manipulates the en trance gate to the fair ground, in which position he has served for the Sullivan county Agricultural Society for several years. Tom says his friends are numerous all over the county. At a meeting of the Lake Mokoma Stockholders held in Williamsport, on Tuesday evening, the following officers were elected, viz : For president, T. J. Fredericks vice president, E. M. Dunham; clerk- T. J. Ingham; treasurer, John Lawshe. Directors: F. E. Gleiw J. Henry Cochran, J. T. Fredericks. C. K. Geddes, T. J. Ingham, E. M Dunham, James McFarlane. A photo of the steam drill, engine and the men at. work on the railroad would be a pleasant remeinberanee of LaPorte of 1892, and it is our opinion that a photographer could make a good day's earnings at this work; as we believe a picture of this Kind would sell readilly at a reason able price, to each family of oui town. Judging from the silly items in the Review recently, one would think Newell foolish or flattened by a sunstroke. He urges the people of Dushore to "quarantine ihat village." "He puts dovn the rules" by which our court should be governed and lots of other little petty squibs that most any bodv else would be ashamed to have go nefore the public. It is our opinion thai the new doctor recently located it Dushore could do Newell lots of .-cod. We give this information free of charge and through kindues for our brother editor and trust that iie will appreciate a thought from til's direction and be healed. A Moon Sig» Farmer. There Is u farmer in Lehigh conn r.y whose work is entirely mapped iut wiili reference to the moon. Fence posts are planted when the inoon "points up" so they are kept from sinking out of sight. The roofs of his bi|il(|ingß were put on when the moon "pointed dowu" so is to prevent the nails from pullirg out of the shingles. Wheat is sown in the "dark of the moon" to hide the seed from the birds and worms. He invariably butchers his hogs when the ino' n is lull, otherwise lie claims that the meat would shrivel up in the pan. The quantity of rainfall, according to this moon-awed farmer, can be accurately judged for a month when the new moon ap pears. If the horn points down i hat means wet and when the cres ent lies on its back, dry weather will prevail. Mr. Lull and Mr. Muhatfey, who were forced upon the Democratic party as their nominees for Member and Sheriff by a couple of so called bosses, were both imported into ou r county and we have collected but 8"> cents county tux from them, each year, since they landed upon Sulli van county soil, some few years ago, Hence, this is all the duty we have derived from them to Keep up the expenses of our county. Mr. Lull and Mr. MahatTcv are now seeking a rewnrd for tins generous assessment, by asking the people of our county to elect them—Member and Sheriff, two ot our best and most lucrative offices. Will our people tolerate this ? Don't you think it would be good experience to imported clock to let them know that they must stand aside and give our old resi dents the (ii-Kt opportunity of draw ing this salary ? Mr. Iluckell and Mr Simmons, are both old residents of Sullivan county. They were reared with us and have paid Sulli van county tnx for the past thirty or more years. Thd total county tax paid by Iluckell and Simmons is $10.U7. Voter, a thought of this matter is all we ask and we are posi tive that you will declare by your . ballot on the Bth of Nov. in lavor of 1 the People's candidates. LAWS MADE BY MONOPOLY MEMBERS. Horses and cattle very often get on the track of railroads, and are olttimcs killed. In such an event no damages can be had of the rail road company, but under a law en acted by a majority of Members of the Legislature, who are sent to Ilarrisburg by railroad corporations, the farmer or owner of the horse or cow is made liable for any daaiage that might result to the railroad company on account of the animal being on the track. This same rail road Legislation has enacted another law relieving the great railroad cor poration from fencing in their tracks. Should the farmer and the laboring man of Sullivan county desire to continue and strengthen this law, vote for the Railroad candidate for Member—M. J. Lull. Should you conclude to better the condition of affairs, vote for D. T. Huckell. Mr. H. is a man in whom you can depend will do what he thinks best for the people and all the money in the city of Ilarrisburg could not change his vote. The monopoly men would not dare to approach Mr. Huckell for the purpose of buying his vote. While on the other hand should Mr. Lull be successful they would not be under any obligations of calling upon him as he goes there an em ployee of the Heading railroad and will seive in their interest. Mr. L. would be unjust to his employees to do other than this and when our people are lead to believe different, they are entertaining that which is wide of the mark. It is this rail road clique of Members who have brought about this obnoxious laws against the farmer and laborers and it does not seem possible that the intelligent citizens of our county will continue this sort of laws by sending a man to Harrisburg known to be in league with this gigantic com bind. WONDERS IN A WINDOW. Minnesota Catholics Excited Over a Strange Apparition. WINONA, Minn., Sept. 30.— The peculiar manifestations in a window of the village church, of Canton, Minn., which have been creating considerable excitement among the Catholics in that section, are to be scientifically examined by Bishoi Cotter. Several weeks ago the in habitants of Canton were starth' by the announcement that a portraii had by Divine means been imprint ed on a window of the Catholic Church there- At first the appari tion appeared to consist of a woman with an infant in arms, and at times i dim halo was discernible about her head. The story then took tin form that this was a portrait of tin Virgin Mary and Christ child, and the crowds of vjnitors increased ten fold. Paralytic cripples and othei afflicted persons came 111 droves, and after a glimpse of the pictures, away their crutches, exclaim in" that they were cured. The window, which is in the north gable of the church, was removed, and the Bishop brought It to Winona, where he will give it a thorotlgU examination in company with pilfer prominent Cuthol.c cleigymen. Nineteen pairs ol crutches are nailed to the church walls, tl»o result of alleged cures performed by the Virgin Mary, wlioin the pilgrims firmly believe is present and helps the siok who come to the church. Scr \NTON. Sept. 21. cratic lenders do not attempt to con eeal tlieir ohagrin oyer the fizzle which grew out of their attempt t<> hold a big meeting of the Demo cratic oluba ip this city T'lesdav Sept. 20. It was expected that fully 1,500 visiting delegates would attend, and upon the strength of representations to this effect, all the local saloon and hotel men were in duced to contribute liberally toward-* the expenses of the affair. The hotel and restaurant keepers laid in a large stook of eatables and every thing was in readiness f->r a great boom for the pnrt.v loeall , upon the wave of which Hon. Lemuel A mer man expected to he carried through another successful campaign for Congress. The disappointment of Mr A mer man is keener than that >f the Cen tral Democratic Club, for he will have to bear the b'nnt of l<-o >1 dis satisfaction. 1 Instead of the 1.500 visitors expected, only 320, all told were registered at the hotels, and even the presence of Hensel at the meeting last night failed to fill th • Academy. There was comparative ly no patron 9 for the hotel and liquor men. Provisions are wasting at all the restaurants, and the bo«l that has gone up is a sufficient in dication of deeply lacerated feelings. Instead of help, the convention here has proved a boomerang. The last featuro of the convention occurred on the 21st. It was a pic nic given in honor of the visitors at Koch's Park, which was about as slimlv attended a* the convention It would appear that the Demo cratic party no longer survive iu the old Keystone State. Sj Ijj WHO KIULL VOTE ? Taken from Pennsylvania State Report*. Vol. MXI. P. 307 Comprising Cases Adjudged In the Supreme Court ot Penna. "It is evid int that the term "in habitant" 01 ' -resident" in these clauses cannot mean one sojourning temporarily, or for some special p irpose, but refers to one who has a permanent abode; the domicil of the senator, representa tive, governor or judge. "Inhabi tant," (says Webster), "a dweller; one who dwells or resides perman ently in a place." The judges of this court sitting in Pittsburg for weeks, at the time of general elec tion, though in the prosecution of their business, yet away from home, have never dreamed they had n right to vote there. No one doubts that one domiciled in another state, but resident here for a special pur pose of business or pleasure, is in eligible to election as a senator, rep resentative, governor or judge. It is equally clear, that the electors of the state are those who have their homes within it, and not elsewhere Their domicil is there, and their home is the place where they permanently reside, and to which they intend to return when away from it. It is also clear, that one domiciled in another state cannot ne an elector here, though he be n resident here tor some temporary purpose, or on some special business, and though Lis Btay uay be pro longed upward of a year. There fore, when the Constitution declares ihat the elector must ha a resident of the state for one year, it refers beyond question, to the state as his home or domicil, and not as the place of a temporary sojourn. This being tue character of the state residence, it defines, as w«have setn the district residence ; for both are members of the same sentence and are qualified by tlie same words, -having resided" without repetition. The elector must, therefore, vote at lioine, not only in the state but in the district where his home is. In these days of swift traveling, one voting in the morning one hun dred miles away from home, where he is temporarily sojourning, miitht vote again at homo before uight. ile has not lost his domieil, where his family and chief business are, by liis temporary sojourn cu some special employment. Undoubtedly (says Judge Iving), residence is a question of intention. Incises involving it, the inquiry is quo animo the party either moved 10 or from the state. And upon the solution of this question, depends ihe fact, whether the petitioner has gained or lost a residence But be« fore this question can arise an actual removal must have taken place. A mere intention to remove notcousnm m-ited, cau neither forfeit the party's old domieil nor enable him to ac quire a new one. Removal out of the stale, without an intention permanently to reside elsewhere will not lose residence, nor will a mere intention to remove permanent ly, not followed by actual removal, acquiie it: Case of James Casey, an insolvent debtor, 1 Ashmead 12G. Tljese extract* will enable us to und< rstand clearly the term resi deuce, as denoting that home or domieil which the third article of the Constitution applies to the free men of the Commonwealth. It means that place where the elector uvikefc his permanent or true home, his principal place of business, and his family residence, if he have one; where he Intends to remain indefin itely, and without a present inten lion to depart) when he leaves it lie intends to return to It, and after his let urn he deems himself at home. It remains now to apply these char acteristics of residence to the case in hnnd. The stated case expressly declares that the students referred to in it, came to Allentown from other counties, for no other purpose than to receive a collegiate eduea ilon, but intended to leave after graduating. It is evident that the college was not their true and permaneut home ; their stay there was not to be definite, as the p'aoe of a fixed abode, until future circ im stances should induce them to re move. Their purpose was indefinite and temporary, and when accomp lished they intended to leave. They retained their original domieil, for the facts stated sh"w that they never lost. On this point the authorities are in entire accord. "The third rule I shall extract (said the Master of the Rolls) is, that the oiiginal domieil, or as it .s called fjrum originis, or the domieil origin, is to prevail until the party Hot only has acquired another, but has manifested and carried into execution an jutea* lion of abandoning his former domicil, and taking another as his sole domicil. These principles enable us now to dispose of the first of the two classes into which the stated case divides these students, viz: "Those who support themselves, or are assisted pecuniarily by persons other than th"ir parents, are emancipated from their father's families; have left the home of their parents and never in tend to return and make it a perm, anent abode." Having, as the case states, come to Allentowu for no other purpose than to receive a col legiate education, and intending to leave after graduating, they have not lost their home domicil, and could vote there on returning to it though they should not re-enter their father's house. Emancipation from their father's family and independent support, and the leaving of the home belonging to their parents, have not forfeited their own domicil. Their father's house is not necessarily their home, but the place is where it is. Though not in the bosom of that family, the place of their residence is not lost to them until they have voluntarily changed it and found a new home. Upon the terms of the stated case, it cannot be said they have abandoned their original home, and actually obtained another. The second class needs no comments. They are those students "who are supported by their parents, visit their parents' home during vacation, and may or may not return there alter graduat ing-." It is clear as to both classes the college is not their home. They are not members of the community among whom they aojoilrn. They have no common interest; do not intend to live with or cast their lot among them. They have no proper motive to interfere in their local af fairs. On no proper principle of a true residence should the student vote to-day and fasten on the com munity officers whom the majority do uot desire, then g-aduate to morrow and be gone. The great underlying principle ol a republic is, thai uien should be permitted to govern themselves, but not to constrain others. Vet this would be the result of *uiJp a shift ng vote, which like th* Parthian arrow, pierces as he who easts it llees. There are notions of liberty anil personal rights, which often impress the mind, and lead it to incline against what may seem t<> be a restraint. A man ; s a man everywhere, and the th' £hl is apt to rise, a freeman shou vote any where. But the only if, wise ai d rational liberty, foi fled on the uolden rule of doi <g ... one would 'done by, and upon the maxim sic utere tuo itt alit nuia iton loedas i9 that which i8 regulated l>y laws made for the common good. The rights of all, the peace of BO cietv, ami the good government of the state, require that the elector should vote at home, in his pi i per district wh'-re he is known, an>i among those wi'h whom he has cast his lot, until yielding to circum stir.ci's. or to a desire ot ebutue, he has chosen voluntarily to ahand< n h'S toriner residcuce, and actually to gain a new one. JUDGMENT AFFIRMED The Italian who plays the harp and who has been in our midst f«>r a week or two. entertained a small gathering in the LaPorte Hotel Saturday evening.
