sheriff of JotTprson county, subjift to
the action of tho prlnmry election In
February, was In RoynohlsvUla Inst
weok nnd mndo Thk Rtah office n plons
ant call. Mr. Blosc Is an old tlmo Re
publican nnd also an old soldier. Ho
did his country pood service in tho tlmo
of dnngor nnd trouble, hnvlng served
four year in Co. A, 105th Regiment.
Ho has been a life-long worker for the
party from which ho now seeks the
nomination for tho oflloe of sheriff. This
is tho first time ho has over asked for
a county office. 'Squire Hlose hns tho
ability and is mado of tho stuff to make
a good sheriff if elected.
In this Issue of The Star will bo
found tho announcements of John S.
Barr, of Finocreek township, for Regis
ter and Recorder, and W. D. Clarke, of
Brockwayville, for Prothonotarv, etc.
These two gentlemen are now holding
the offices which they are desirous of
succeeding themselves In for another
term. They are both genial, obliging
and efficient officers, and as there seems
to be a prevailing opinion that thoy
should receive the nomination for a
second term without opposition in the
Republican ranks, no other candidates
have yet announced thomsolves for the
offices mentioned, and are not likely to.
There Is no doubt but that they will be
conceded tho nomination without a
struggle for It.
Under a proper heading In this Issue
of The Star will be found a llHt of can
didates who are seeking the nomination
for tho offices that are within the gift
.of the voters of Jefferson county. All
Republicans should read the announce
ments and select the best man Sheriff:

"Clelland, we have In our possession a
copy of the Vhtrr County Gazette, pub
lished at Kingstown on the 4th of Jan
uary, 1800, which contains the announ
cement of tho death of General Goorgo
Washington, who died Deo. 14th, 1700
The two inside pagosof the Gazette have
pieu-wlde column rules turnod upsido
down and a black border over a i of an
inch wide around tho outaldo of the
pagoo. The paper also contains a notice
of ConerrosB convening on the 10th of
December, 1700. TIio Gazette says:
"Mr. Spoaker. attended by members
present, proceeded to tho President'
house to .present him their address In
answer to hla speech on the opening
of tho present session; and having ro
turned tho President's reply thoroto
was road." In his reply to tho shaker
and members of Congress, President
John Adams said: "As long as we can
maintain with hurmony and affection
the honor of our country, consistently
with its peaco, externnlly and Internal
ly, while that l attuinablo, or in war,
when that becomes necessary, asserts
its roal independence and sovereignty
and support of constitutional energies
and dignity of its government wo may
be perfectly sure under tho smiles of
Divine Providence, that we shall effect
ually promote and extend our national
Interests and happiness." In the Sen
ate's acknowledgment of the President's
speech delivered to both Housos of Con
gross, of which tho above it an extract,
was the following: "Knowing as we do,
that the United States are fiercely
anxious for a fair and liberal execution
of the treaty of amity, commerce and
navigation entered into with Great
Britain; we lourn with regret, that pro
gress of adjustment has been interrupt
'ed by a difference of opinion among the
commissioners. We hope, however,
that the justice, the moderation, and
the obvious interest of both parties will
lead to batlufactory explanations, and
that the business will then go forward
to an amicable close of all the differ-
ences and demands between the two
oouutries. We are fully persuaded that
the Legislature of the United States
will cheerfully enable you to realize
your Insurances of performing on our
part, all engagement with punctuality

It would bo hard to find any condition
of human ailment that a winter visit to
Florida would fail to improve, while
those who enjoy good health cannot
realize, without experience, what true
enjoyment there Is in life passed under
the golden skies of the "Land of
Flowers."
In order to give the publio an nppor-
tunity to visit Florida at n very reason
able cost, the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company has arranged for a series of
tours to Jacksonville. Since the sys
tem of personally-conducted tours in
augurated by that company has been In
effect, none but words of commendation
have been received. Its unexcelled
train service, experienced Tourist
Agents and chaperons, and above all,
Its moderate charges, leave nothing to
bo deBtred.
The tours to Jacksonville, allowing
two weeks stay in Florida, will leave
New York and Philadelphia on January
2, Febuary 4, 11, 18, and 2.", Bnd March
3, IK'.HI. The rate, including trnnsiwr
tation, meals en rout, and Pullman
berth on special train, is $.")0.00 from
New York, and (48.00 from Phlladel
phla; proportionate rates from other
points. For further Information apply
to ticket agents or address Tourist
Agent, 119(1 Broadway, New York, or
Room 411, Broad Street Station, Phila
delphia, to whom application for space
should also be mado.
