The tendency nf modern times is tn make nf nil hnlliliiys occasions fur mei'e fun and frolic, fur irnincs and contests of all kinds without any re irarils to the purpose nf the day. For these several reasons the Fourth of July ;s In danger of losing its purely und iinble pnti'iotic character, and of nlnk injf into a meaningless hnltday, full of noise and show, sij;nifyiiiir nothing. Out of the vast crowd that (fathered in Roynoldsville to celehj'ati! the clorloiis Fourth, wo wonder how niany irave even one thought to the true meanintr of the day? Thn newspaxr of this State will never foiyet the important servlccB rendered by William Orlando Smith, Representative from JefTerson county in tho House of Representatives, in so curing; the passage of thn new Libel law, which puts newspaper men on a par with tho other citizens of tho State. Mr. Smith had Borvcd four terms In the House with great credit, In a practical printer, editor of tho I'unxsutawney Spirit, one of tho leading newspapers of that section of tho state, and a man who Is respected everywhere for Ilia abilities and personal worth. Mr. Smith U one of those quint men who achieved leadership, not, by bin own efforts, but because ho is looked up to by his associates. In tho recent legis lature he was the author of the Libel bill, iU chief exponent anil defender, and though his own measure was slight. ly amended, ho secured practically all that tho newspaper men of this State want, and he Is deserving of their last ing gratitude. Tho Stato Editorial Association made no mistake in select ing him to champion this measure. It could not have passed finally without his quiot but earnost and effective support. Newspaper men of Pennsyl vania, take off your hats to Smith of Jefferson, an excellent editor, a charm ing gentlemen, and a forceful legislator, Philadelphia Inquirer. Tho fnitriVr, a narrow-gttugod-dhoot published at DuBois, Pa., was very much exorcised over what It claimed to consider an attempt on the part of Firo Co. No. I, of Reynoldsvlllo, to hood wink tho dear public by getting a crowd to come to Roynoldsville through "fake" advertisements. On Friday morning, July 2nd, the Courier used up almost a column of its valuable (?) space, double leaded, to warn the public of Reynolds- ville's Intention to defraud tho peoplo. Tho Courier began its wonderful production thusly: "In the light of duty to the publlo tho Courier offors some explicit statements horewith, divested entirely of holiday bombast, without the spirit of rivalry and for the defense of legitimate public enter prise." Hereafter it will not be necessary to refer to George Washing ton for an example of truthfulness, Just mention the (Wrier. To tho citizens of Keynoldsville It was very plain that the Cinirii-r'n only object was to keep the people away from our town on Saturday, July 3rd, and get them to DuBois on the 5tb and Utb. This fact is too plain for the narrow-gaugo-sheet to explain away. In the big headings, over the article referred to, the I'ounVr did not forget to state that there would be "balloon races at DuBois Monday and Tuesday." The Roynoldsville people were justly Indignant that the Courier would try to lessen the crowd at Roynoldsville by publishing such an article the day before our celebration and yet they were not much surprised because the paper in the past has been on just such friendly terms with our town when DuBois is interested in any way. This was a baby trick. However, the Courier' article had as much in' tluenoe over the public as that paper generally bos and Roynoldsville bad an immense crowd on July iird. The double loaded article was uncalled for and it did the Courier no good. PEK30NAL PARAGRAPHS. Olinipses of the People who are Passing To and Fro. Miss jessir Irving is visiting nt Heei'llliee.

Electric Bitters Is a medicine suited for any season, but perhaps mora genially needed when the languid, ex- niiusied leenng prevails, wnen me liver Is torpid and sluggish and the need of a tonic and alterative Is felt. A prompt use of this medicine has often averted long and perhaps fatal bilious fevers. No medicine will act more surely in counteracting and freeing the system from the miliaria poison. Headache, indigestion, constipation, dizziness yield to Electric Bitters, 'ille. and I.UO per bottle at H. Alex. Stoke's drug store. The Oil City lllh.znrit Is not an ad mirer nf slang.
