THERE is a great deal of food for re-
flection in the following. which: was last
week contributed to the Meversdale Reg-
Fister by a Confluence correspondent:
Three-fourths of the men who voted for Cleve-
land on the 8th inst. never did business nnder
ts tariff for revenue only’ policy. From 1846 to
1860 the Democratic policy prevailed. From 1880
to the present time the Repnblican policy has
been in force. The majority of the present vot-
ers are under fifty years of age; many of them
were not here during the forties and fifties, and
practically know nothing of the workings of “a
tariff for revenne only.” When the Republican
party first came into power the financial condi-
tion of the country was in '& deplorable condi-
tion. Government bonds sold, ‘when they conld
be sold at sll, at about twelye percent. disconnt. |
The U. 8. Treasury was empty and labor went
begging. The argument that the conntry must
have been prosperous. because there were no la-
bor strikes availeth nothing, because there was
‘nothing to strike for unless it was for soup houses,
maintained by the. public. The frequenters at
those houses were not only the infirm but those
with strong bodies and willing hands to toil.
. Farmers found it difficnit to raise money to pay
the taxes. There was no market for many of
the things that now bring the ready cash. The
garden yielded no income because there was no
market, ‘The orchard was no better as a sonrce
of revenue tothe owner A bushel of cherries
or peaches would not buy a garden hoe! Ten
‘bushels of apples would not ‘any more than buy
a stable fork. A good cow ora steer would pos:
sible buy a plow, stich as ‘no one would hitch to |
now. ‘Two dozen of eggs wonld, when eggs were
scarce. buy a yard of muslin spun and wove in
England. A pound of butter, if kegged and kept
from spring until fall, would buy two yards of
calico.” Two good horses would buy a buggy.
‘Had it not been for the Johnstown works what
would the north of Somerset county be as com-
pared with its present condition? The first steel
rails mannfactured in this country. were made
at Johnstown about the year 1860. Seven years
later they were sold for a price within fifty cents
of the duty upon them. In 1860 we paid about
$160 per tou for steel rails made in England.
What would we pay for them now could we not
manufacture here at home? Take the duty off
of steel rails now and let Johnstown close her
works and who that voted for Cleveland will not
regret his vote inside of twelve months?

There are two newspapers in this county that

es that print such matter free of charge are so
burdened with such matter as to make them pre-
sent a very doleful appearance, something which
we believe newspaper readers in general do not
sanction. Or course we always make mention
of deaths; ete., as a matter of news. but only so
far as we believe the public in general eares for.
and we have always reserved the exclusive right
to say or leave unsaid whatever we deem best re:
lating to deaths, orof the life and character of
the persons deceased. We believe. we have the
right view of it, but we are willing to Jet it to our
patrons and do that which the greatest number
of them desire in the matter. Therefore, we
have prepared the following blask, which will
be kept in the paper up to Jan. 1st, and which
we desire every one of our patrons to cut from
the paper, fill out and forward to Toe Star. If
most of our readers want an obituary sheet, they
can have it, and all such matter will then be pub-
lished free of charge. We want to do inthe mat-
ter whatever will please the greatest number of
our patrons. 3
Following is the blank; scratch the part you
do not want to vote, sign your name and forward
blank to Tre STAR. The vote will be published
in our first issue after Jan. 1st. None but votes
of subseribers will be counted.
Evitor. SraR:—
I would prefer to have voi publish obituary
notiees, resolutions of respect. ete., as prepared
by friends and relatives of the deceased, free of

I would prefer to have you maintain your
former attitude toward publishing obituary no-
