"Panle-Mongerliig."
For various reasons business has
been very dull for the past three
months. Money has been scarce;
credits have been contracted ; large
firms have suspended operations;
banks have failed. So general is
the depression, that it has become a
matter of news. Newspapers have
been filled with bad news of busi
ness for weeks.
Republican newspapers have re
ceived and printed the same news as
is furnished their democratic rivals.
Not only this, but they have dared
togo farther and call attention to
the fact that present conditions arc
radically different from those which
existed last year, and the past few
years. They have been bold
enough to intimate that, possibly,
the change is due to the fact that
the government is in the hands of a
party reckless in assertion and
revolutionary in aim. They have
gone farther and taken the trouble
to quote a few plain, honest facts to
back their assertions. And because
they have dared to do all this, the
democratic press has arisen as one
man and shouted "Traitors ! Panic
mongers ! Calamity-howlees 1 Cease
your nefarious business, and be
patriotic J" If the democratic press
had not been doing business at that
Baine old stand for many, many
years, the REPUBLICAN would have
been tempted to exclaim: "The
gall I" As it is, we must sigh and
learn to look at Jeffersonian demo
cracy as one of the many ills flesh is
subject to in this world..
But, in all seriousness, the 11E-
I'UBLICAN would like to ask demo
cratie newspapers a question or two
it bout ''panic-mongering." When
the Homestead strike was on last
hummer, and the New York World
declared editorially that the strike
■was an evidence of the misery and
ruin wrought by republican misrule,
was not the World dabbling a little
in a panic-mongering itself ? When
last fall, the World and the Phila
delphia Times and other papers '6f
the kind were preaching the doctrine
of suffering, starvation, oppression,
degradation, and sought to make
the people believe they were being
driven to the edge of a precipice
nnd the verge of a panic by republi
can McKinleyism, were they not dip
ping a brush in the horrid pot of
panic-mongering ? And again,
when democratic papers sought to
array class against class and told
the workmen at Homestead they
were justified ingoing to any ex
treme in their fight against the
•'robber barons," were not those
same papers urging and advocating
treason ? Yes, they were, and to
day, if Benjamin Harrison were
president instead of Mr. Cleveland,
those same papers would tumble
over each other in the mad race for
epithets and head-lines violent
enough to hurl at Republican lead
ers ! Geese fly far sometimes, but
they always come home to roost.
Republican newspapers believe
Mr. Cleveland represents policies
tending to unsettle business ; busi
ness men think so, too, and we see
the result. That result republican
papers have pointed to as a vindi
cation of their stand. Believinw as
they do, they are laboring to° the
end that the political misfits now in
power will be returned to the shaded
walks of domestic life, for four years
hence. And they are fighting fair
ly. They are not calling Mr. Cleve
land and his advisers anarchists,
robbers, receivers of stolen goods,
etc. They are calmly pointirg to
facts.
Democratic newspapers should
cease their howling and find out
where the hurt is. They have
fought to gain responsibility in
government for the last 30 years.
Now they have won it—why do
they not proceed to fulfil the solemn
obligations we have heard so much
of from the lips of their heavy
weight leader, instead of hollering
to republicans, ''stop making faces
at us ?"
Gentlemen, in the flowing speech
of your captain, it is a condition
and not a theory which confronts
you. What are you going to do
pbout it ?
ADDITIONAL LOCAL.
Crowl Ji of Odd Fellowship.
The gro nth oi the order of Odd
Fellows has been phenomenal. In
1830 there were 1,000 members; in
1840, ll,1G(i; 1850, 139,242; 18«0,
783; 1890, 649,702, and at this
time the membership is more than
800,000. There has been expended
by them in all these years $30,000,-
000 for relief. Pennsylvania has
1,065 lodges at this time, with 106,-
113 members.
I.ehlgli Valley Hay Checks.
EiSTON, Sept. 12.—Word was "re
ceived at the banks here this after
noon that the Lehigh Valley Rail
road Company would start out its
pay car Thursday from this place.
Emploj'es will lie paid in checks
drawn on the Merchants National
Bank of New York, and the Phila
delphia National through the Clear
ing House. The banks here will
not cash the checks owing to the
stringency in the currency, but will
receive them on deposit.
This year when times are so hard
and money so scarce is the time to
relieve the parents by introducing
the free text book system in the
public schools. Many a boy and
girl who would have been deprived
of a year's schooling because the
father was out of work and could
not afford to buy school supplies is
now given the advantage of this
year's term of school. The poor
parents of ambitious boys and girls
appreciate the introduction of this
system, and especially this year.
"That black cloud rising over
yonder" on Thursday evening last,
did lots of damage throughout
Bradford county and in the northern
part of our county. In Franklin a
young man was killed by the
name of Edmunds. At New Era
several persons were badly injured
and buildings blown down. The
stage coach between New Albany
and New Era was up-turned and
badly demolished. D. J. Sweet of
Towanda, was hurt about the leg.
Iu Sullivan we have learned of no
deaths resulting from the gale, but
buildings and crops suffered more
or less by wind and hail stones. In
IjKporte it was so dark that all of the
business places and residences were
lighted and the streets looked like
night.
ON THEIR WEUDINU TKIF.
The liiter-Ntate Fair Balooii
Bring* the Couple to Bradford
County.
A baloon which was let loose
Wednesday at the Elmira Interstate
fair grounds was visible for a brief
time in the afternoon, north of this
place. It crossed the river near
Hornbrook, and went to the east of
Towanda, "out of sight."
This balloon contained three per
sons—Mr. and Mrs. Fred B. Green,
and the gentleman in chargo of the
balloon. The passengers were the
happy couple who had on that day
been married on the fair grounds,
an event which had been for some
time heralded in the public press.
Their mid air journey was rather
an uneventful one, except when
farmers commenced shooting at it,
not knowing that any one was in it
The balloon landed on the farm
of Milton Horton in Sheshequin
township, and that gentleman took
the party to Ulster, where they left
for Elinira on train 7.—Towanda
