Mrs. Lester Van Ettou whose Ulnoss has been noted several times In the Pukss died last Wednesday morning, Oct. 21. Aged 21 years and one week. The burial servi ces wore oonduotod at the home of Mrs. Coss (Mrs. Van Etten's mother) on Satur day at 10 o'clock a. m. Interment In the cemetery at Bevans. A birthday oelebratlon was held at the bouse of Mrs. Rebecca Hornbeck near Tut tle'i Corner on Saturday Oct. 24. Mrs. Hornbeck Is quite active at 86 years of age. The numerous family, as well as many neighbors joined in the reunion, and par took of a grand dinner. All enjoyed themselves. This Is the most Interesting campaign In my experience. Just think of a politician marking New Jersey apOOO for Major Mo Klnley. Tho house In which I live has been known as the Bedell homestead, and was occupied by Isaac Bedell upwards of 70 years ago. Mr. Chester Bedell was born here In 1IS25. He moved with his parents to Michigan when nine years old. The family soon moved again to Ohio, and he has since lived In that Statu, now about 60 years. Mr. Bedell having come Eos with a carload of fat stock concluded to visit the old place, and I had tho pleasure of entertaining him in the same house In which he was born. He la very conserva tive in polities, and though having known and lived by Major McKinley for many years, and esteeming him as a neighbor, he fully believes that he will not carry his native State. Mr. Bedell says that the silver sentiment In Ohio has grown won derfully, and la becoming a very tidal wave. The store at Walpack Centre, belonging to Messrs Roe and Fuller was burgiurized last week. Dry goods and notions were inspected and such as suited the fastidious taste of Mr. Burglar were taken along. Country stores, Postoffiues, and chicken roosts are usually looked after by these gentlemen about tbi4lme of year. Every one should put a fresh load of buokshot in the old gun, a fresh cap on, and when the auspicious event takes place shoot low. The annual private ball at the Hulnes vllle House -takes plooe on Oct. 2y. Mr. and Mrs. Everitts known abilities as cater ers, aud the other attractions enured, make these entertainments a great success. No doubt this one will be the greatest of the series. An effort is lxir.g mode to raise a sum' vbiiit fund to paiut the new horn that Brother Deinlng built at the parsonage Why not Include the churches nt IlnlncR- villi and Lnyton. They both really need a good coat of outsldo white. The loose stones In the roads should be thrown out once a month. The law says so, it is a good law, why not enforce it Our roads that might be made a pleasure to ride over, are modoa torture by the pre seneeof these small stones. Let thoso who are Interested, pull up a few overseers and make It plain to them that the law Is not optional, but ohllgntory. What fine fall weathiir we are enjoying. A bracing air, and brilliant sunshine out doors, buckwheats and trimmings within. What more do mortals want hero tielow? The choir at Layton is rnpldly progres sing In the higher branches of sacred mu sic, and the delicious melody Is drawing full congregations. It Is a very attractive and pleasant feature of the regular Sunday services, and the marked ability of the or gnnistl is fully recognized and appreciated. Rev. C. W. Doming was nn enthusiastic tree planter and put out two fine maple trees nt the parsonage while on this pas torate he became much attached to them and it is Bald affectionately named them. We smuggest thnt they be enref ully wrapped witli straw and protected against the win try blasts. Perhaps when they get large enough to tap it will turn out as brother Doming fondly hoped, that they will flow puro buttermilk. Interest In our Sunday school should not be allowed to flag because the weather Is getting a little cool. Tho attendance last Sabbath was rather light, and but ono teacher on deck. We hope this good work will bo carried forward with more vigor in the near future. There was never more need of missionary work In this neighbor hood thnn now. X X GREELEY.

One of those odorous animals which have recently been lavishly porfuming our atmosphere, inflict ing a great loss on the sellers of am monia, and giving a corresponding benefit to the manufactures of sul phur and smelling salts, betook him self a few nights ago, in his search for general information, and to gratify an offensive curiosity to one of the hotels in town. There he dis ported until his presence become pro nounced, and Mike was summoned. He came, viewed the festive creture and shouted, arrah be jobers he's no skoonk, he's a badgor sure and a faine one too look at his bootiful white and black spots.

He got the cage and with a stick proceeded to shoo the crayther in it. The badger took offense at tl5e familiarity Mike was showing and retaliated. -The son of Erin was aghast, it wus worse than a Democratic meeting in Kentucky where gentlemen evince displeasure at the remarks by a freo use of un saleable hen products. Mike's com ments as he occasionally caught hia breath were staccato and unsecu larized.

LETTERS FEOM THE PEOPLE t'nder this head we will Insert communl cntlons on current and political topics, without lielng renpoiiHi bio for the senti ments expresm-d, and invite such discus tlon as may lie proper and of general in sercst to the people. Eiiitor Press. Think III fore Von Vote. Mr. Eiiitor. As a Republican and heavy tax payer we would like to stnto a few things. Now it has been told that the Republican candidate for commissioner promised to do all In his power to build a bridge across the Lackn waxen If tho people would support him. Wo have been told thnt said bridge would cost nearly flO.UOU. Now should we vote for a candidate wno is so willing to load several thousand dol lars on the county to get nn office. If you are not willing to vote for n candidate that would lie lnlluenced In a corrupt way vote for Mr. Bortree who will pledge himself to nothing except such Interest as are for the public welfare. Mr. Bortree Is a clean man who does not stoop to low dirty work to get nn office and if elected he would serve the county with clean hands. We lxlleve any man that will seek office by tho use of beer or boodle Is not fit for the office. Every man should seek office In a respectable way such as a clean man should not lie ashamed of in after years if known to the public. Thank you Mr. Editor for your exposure of some of their dirty ways wo hope you will stand by your colors until some of these low methods can be stopped and Pike county pVlltlcs raised to a higher moral plain. Throw In your thunderbolts and the respoctable people will stand by you. Now fellow citizens let us rise above a glass of beer or a good supper and vote for a mnn of pVlnciple, ouewho will be careful of the county funds aud bo the means of lessening taxes by careful expenditures. We have no Interest In Mr. Bortree's elec tion save knowing that he Is a careful con scientious man and would be a careful officer. We believe every mnn who spends several hundred dollars to gain nn office will try to pilfer tho public at every chance to get It back. Fellow citizens please think It over and see If we are right and if so please vote for Mr. Bortree aud not only vote for him but work for him, get your neighbor also to voto for him. Let us elect a man that we know will not lower the standard of county commissioner aud public morals. Heavy Tax Payer. Greene, Oct. 27, 18. Eiiitor Press. I observe In your paper the card of Hon. John A. Klpp announ cing him a candidate for County Treasurer under the head of People's party . Some may ask Is he entitled to the suffrages of the people? Ho was twice elected to the Legislature, and that Is the only office he has direct from the people. During his first session he drew and succeeded In pass ing a law giving the right to citizens to catch eels In all the stnte waters. This was vetoed by Governor Pnttison. I am Informed Mr. Editor that after the veto you was requested to get a copy of the bill and send it to Albany, that you done so, and that It is the snmo act under which tho people of that State are to-day taking these fish by means of weirs. Mr. Klpp certainly performed his full share In ob taining the passage of the law here. Ho also procured the repeal of tho act giving collectors tl for each return on seated lands. The returns wcro often more thau the total taxes and tho collectors were not anxious to collect them. In the session of 1805 his course was marked by close and careful attention to tho interests of his constituents, and he mado a clean and honorablo record. Ho was largely instrumental aided by the Susquehanna member in passing a bill in the Huuse giving to Pike and Susque hnnna tho HO, WW annually paid by the Erie to tho State, and which has been so paid since 1843. There wero 145 votes re corded In favor of and 5 against the bill. It passed tho Senate and went to tho Gov ernor but ho vetoed it on the ground that It would establish a precedent for other oounties. This wus a weak excuse for there Is no other "bonus" act in the State similar to this. Had the bill 'become a law tho people of this county would to day be greatly relieved of taxation. The people might have douo well to have elected Mr. Klpp again this year and given him another opportunity to work for the people. He has shown himself the peo ple's friend and It Is only proper that they should now give (hlm their support for Treasurer. o. Bryan's "Bimetallism." Mr. Bryan still calls himself "bi metallist," though he has nsver even attempted to answer the qnestion: "In the history of this country has there ever been a time when gold and silver circulated upon equal terms as fall legal tender money, with the mints open to the free and unlimited coinage of both?" There never wa such a time. Free and unlimited coinage at 16 to 1 has never, in any country, at any time, given a bimetallic enrrenoy. Mr. Bryan is a silver monometallist in fact, what ever he may think himself to be in the ory. If a merchant marks op his prices and people refuse to bny, he still has his goods. If a workingmon undertakes to mark op his wages and employers de cline to pay, where is hef What intelli gent wage earner can vote for the higher prices of cheaper money and trnst to look to increase his wages proportion ately f A Veaarxbla UUhop Wad.

Front and Sussex Sts., Port Jervis, N. Y. SOME PERTINENT ENQUIRIES. A Few Plain Facts for Farmers, Mechanic and Laboring Men. Mr. Eiiitor. Mr. Bryan says that most of the farmers have mortgages on their farms and thnt the free coinage of silver as set forth In the Chicago Platform If carried Into effect will cause so much of that money to bo put into circulation that the farmer will be able to pay off his mort gages. Now take it for granted (until Nov. 3rd,) that the Chicago Platform is carried into effect. v I have a mortgago upon your fnnn paya ble in gold or In money nt its legal value to-day, I see money Is about to dcpi-eclate, and consequently when you get ready to pay off the mortgngo I get depreciated cur rency. What am I going to do ? As soon as I could I would demand payment of that mortgage and would do so nt once, as would all other mortgagees aud if pay ment could not be mado I would forcloso before money IxH'nmo cheaper. Why 1 Because, for instance to-day the mortgage if worth say, $1,K)0 in six months or a year would be worth f.VSO, and I would be out just H"). I could not stand this so upon the mortgngo oecoming duo I would demand payment and would not renew except I was paid in money, upon the expiration of the mortgngo' of an equal value as when given, this is plain. If I have in my bin to-day 1,0U0 bushels of potatoes worth (1,000, and I see that in three months or six months that they will be worth 53 cents a bushel or in all f.ViO. I would sell immediately like any other sensible fanner because I could not afford to lose (170, and does this not stand the same as to the man who deals in money and lends on the mortgage ? If free coinage of silver is thrust upon market silver will go up and gold will como dowff, tho price of goods will go up and consequently wages will go up. The price of silver, if so much is thrown upon tho market and it is inflated, will not causo the price to rise any more than if tho market was flooded with potatoes would raise the price of them. How would gold come down t Instead wo would be flooded with a silver currency and England would immediately take all our gold at Its preseut rate, and as all of our national debts are payable In gold we would need two or three silver dollars to pay one of the old debts. Suppose the price of goods go up and I take 25 bushols of potatoes to market and get (2.00 a bushel, on my way home I must buy a barrel of flour and pay (10 for it in stead of (5 as when potatoes wore worth (1 a bushel, where is the gain f If the former Is to get double tho price for his produce must not the grocer, the merchant and all others who sell get the same proportion for their goods to offset this f Will wages go up t It has been a plain fact that wages novor rise as fast as any other commodity. No man will raise the price of his employee for fun, and not mi ls less he compelled to. Now if the price of produce goes up, say the farmer's potatoes go np to (2 a bushel the storekeeper sells them at an advanced price, the laboring man must necessarily buy be he must live, now the question Is will his wages be advanced sufficently to allow him to buy as freely as before, If not how can he eat as much, how can he do as much work if he can not have enough to eat. Will the fanner raise his hired man's wages from (15 a month to (10 if he gets double the price for his produce t Will the former pay twice the amount of taxes then as he docs now If it takes two dollars to moko one of the present worth f Will the Government officials work for hnlf pay then f Take the railroads, their bonded In debtedness is payable in gold, their fares are paid in silver at 53 cents, their freight In 53 cent dollars, the State compels them to carry passengers ut 8 cents per mile. Will more people truvel f Will more freight pass f When how Is this bonded indebtedness to be paid f The fact is plain. It must como out of the employees wages for it must be paid, and no other source is open from which money can be obtained. A. Ripans Tabules. Ripans Tabules cure nausea. lUpaus Tabules: at druggists.
