Grow Nominated Without Op position. HARKISBUKG, Jan. 3.—The nom ination of Gidusha A. Grow, for Congressman-at-Large was made to day by the Republican State Con vention with all the unanimity and enthusiasm possible. It is a result in congratulation for which every Republican unites with every other Republican. It Is not merely satis faction that is expressed ; it is en thusiasm. Those who were reluctant to aid in making this nomination have since joined with all others in declaring it was the right thing to do and not a little of this feeling was due to the admirable speech made by Mr. G row immediately after his nomination. MR. GKOW's SPEECH. "Gentlemen, accept my double thanks. First for the kindness of feeling implied in your cordial greet ing to me, and, next, for the unani mous vote by which you have ten dered me the nomination. Rest assured that they will ever be among the cherished memories of my life. "For the first time since ISs<> the Democratic party has b«en intrusted with the power of government by the people, and it seems to be beginning now just where it ended then. This generation has no knowledge Vy ex perience of what a Democratic ad ministration of the government is. The Democratic party in power is a Btanding menace to business, Why the mere threat contained in its platform has completely paralized the business of the country. Never in our history have our industries' been so prostrated, nor so many people thrown into enforced idleness ns wc find to-day after less than one year of Democratic rule. "In 1892, under the wise and patriotic Republican Administration the country had reached the highest degree of prosperity it had ever known. livery branch of business in every part of the land was pros perous, and there was \sork for every man who wanted it at the highest rate of wages that has ever been paid except in times of war. "At such a time the people were called upon to elect a President and a Congress, and with that reckless spirit of change which sometimes sways the unthinking masses, the majority sowed the wind and the business of the country is now wait ing for the harvest. We arc told bv the Democrats that the present con dition of affairs is a legacy from the Republican party. That is too thin a veil to cover their incompetency, and it is not true. The Republican party in its thirty-three years of power has left legacies of which we may all feel proud. The first one is ft union free and a country saved Second, a circulating medium of gold, silver ar.d paper, interchange able one into the other, and every dollar as good in any foreign country as it is at home. We have also left as a legacy a banking system under ■which no bill holder ever lost a dol lar. But the Democratic party pro poses to replace this with Hie old red dog and shinplaster Stale banking Hystem. Another legacy of the Republican party is a reveuue system of protection under which the indus tries of the country have grown from sixteen thousand millions of dollars in 1860, to sixth-three thousand millions in 1890. Under this system of protection the government has l>eeu provided with revenue to meet all its current expenses, over $3,000- 000,000 of the war debt has been wiped out; it has enabled us to pro vide the heroes who risked their lives for the Union with liberal and just pensions, and has protected the working man from competition with the underpaid workmen of Europe. A HYBRID TAItIFF BILL. "The Democratic party proposes to supplant this system by a tariff which its advocates admit will not raise sufficient revenue to meet the expenses of the government. It is! neither a protective nor a revenue tariff, but suggests one of those hybrids, which in nature, has not power to perpetuate itself. They will neither raise revenue for the Gov ernment nor protection for the nidus tri«a of the country. What kind of statesmanship is that ? ''lt took a hundred years for the j Democrats to find out that a protec tive tariff was unconstitutional. From Washington to Cleveland near ly every President had signed tariff! bills and the Supreme Court has pronounced them constitutional, but now the Democrats have just found OUt it is unconstitutional. It takes 1 tliem about that long to liud out any. thing new. They were even a num ber of years behind the Southern Democrats, who incorporated free trade in the Confederate Constitu tion. The Southern State's great trin'ty of principles weie slavery, secession and free trade. The first two sleep the sleep that knows no waking and the other will join them as soon as the people prepare a sep ulchre in which it is to be buried.'' Mr. Grow went onto discuss the tariff at some length. He concluded his speech with a severe arraignment of President Cleveland and Secretary Gresham l'or their un-American and unconstitutional action in the Ha waiian matter. lie said their policy had fitly been termed the "policy of infamy" and added "tho American peoplo owe it to themselves to make this act so odious that it will stand out alone in history as the only at tempt that was ever made by a Pres ident to override the Constitution in order to set up a monarch) - ." Chairman Packer declared the convention adjourned as soon as Mr. Grow had finished his speech and then for a short time the candi date was overwhelmed with congrat ulations upon his nomination and speech. liyiiiiui'M Ay tele phone, with our main store at liughesville.

WHEUEAS, God in His infinite wisdom has seen fit to remove from our midst one of our most zealous and well-beloved Brothers, P. \V. Thompson, who departed this life December 31, 189:5. As our deceas ed Brother was at all times a true Odd Fellow, a firm friend, honest and upright with his fellow men, outspoken in his views, sincere and candid, yet courteous and amiable. In his association with his family he was devoted and atlectionate. His los? is sincerely mourned by this Lodge. Therefore be it Jiesolved, That the sympathy of this Lodge is hereby extended to the family of the deceased. Jiesolved, That a copy of these resolutions be sent to the family of the deceased.

Richard Pardoe and oUI and re spected citizen of Elkland died Fri day, the remains were buried in the Pardoe cemetary on Sunday, The hollidays passed off very quiet at Estella. A large crowd enjoyed the skating on Avery's pond, Christ mas day- Lee Rosbach had the misfortune to cut his foot quite badly last week, which confined the little fellow to the house for a few- days. Elroy snys he's got the stepper now, and if the gil ls are in it. they can have a sleigh ride, providing there e.oines any snow. Business is unusually dull. It seems too bad to lay it all to orover. Perhaps if it would snow, HO the lumbermen could do something, it would liven up. KITTIB CLOVER. FORKSVILLLTITEMS. The Doctors are busy night and day. \\\ 11.
