BEBAT .,25SUS OF PATTON.
The following in regard to the census
of Patton is taken from the third issue
of the Patton Courier dated Deceinber
7, 1883, and no doubt. will be of much
interest to qur readers:
“TH Cor uk has frgguently been
asked wha# popniation nas Patton?
Heretofore ofily careful estimates have
been given and they have uniformly
been . close at 1,600. The . estimates
were taken with an allowance, as it is a
habit people have of inflating reports of
towns in which they are interested;
* hut, as stated in the first issue of this
paper, the COURIER aspires to gain a
reputation for reliability and prefers
that its errors—a thing from which’
none are fres=shal be on the conserv-
ative side.
“In this third issne the COURIER is
able to inform the public that the new-
est town in Northern Cambria county
has a population of 1,537, and that the
figures were obtained by a house-to-
house count, the arducns task being
perfortfied by Mr. R. L. Gul. That
number of people are making their
homes within the borough limite. IL is
confidently stated by those in a posi-
tion to make accurate c..imates 1:41
the population within a radius of two
miles of the business centre «f town
numbers not less than 2,000. :
“The enumerator found, in making
his canvass, twenty people living in
one house of four rooms. And as an-
other item of intérest he reports that
four pairs of twins were found mug
the infantile inhabitants. |
“Another Pennsylvania town cannot
be named which has grown from poth- |
ing to a population of apwards of 2,000 |!
within the past seventeen months, and |
at the same time has as many good |
buildings as are seen in Patton.”
SAR BN 1 PS OI.
Elsewhere in this issue of the Cov- |
AIR 3 meagre socount. of the ofgaitia- |
ation of the First Nations! Bank of!
Patton is given. Ia justice to this flour- |
ishing institution we think a more ex- |
tended notice proper. When it is re-
membered that the institution opened |
ita doors less than one year and a ! f|
ago (October 10, 1568) the statement |
Elbo bow, showing its condition |
on March 2nd, 1805, is certainly inter- |
facie made self sustaining in this lo- |
| gality—and there is no more popular
i ambition in the newspaper field than to
‘ make a good newspaper.

of this paper made by some people who
were disappointed becanse the COURIER
is not practically a labor organ. We
will explain briefly the sitnation. There

we were to oublish a paper for them

would really pay the expenses but a
fraction of that time and after a num-
ber of weeks the CAURIER would be no
more. That is the actual situstion as
related to business, without a line of
sentiment. And is it not a plain case?
A newspaper all want ; an organ but
few want. The COURIER means to be
a newspaper friendly to working men.
INDEPENDENT, NOT NEUTRAL.
The publication of the initial number
of this paper is not yet =o far distant
that jts declared policy has been for-
gotten by either its readers or publish-

nor a neutral paper, but politically in-
dependent. The distinction betgeen

parlance “laid on the table’
This is all the more strange in view
of the number of farmers who are
elected to the legisiatare. Right here
the question confronts us: Are these
men lacking in intelligence or conf
dence, or are they overwhelmed by
the members from the great cities who
have no interest in rural questions?
There is something radically wrong
here. The more we stody the problem
the more apparent it becomes that no
remedy will be provided by either of
the great political organizations as!
they stand to-day. There is no nse in
