OUR 'NOMINEES.
The
placed
Republicans of Pike
have
in
nomination their candi
dates for tho several olreos to he
filled at the Novembor election.
While it is early to begin nn active
canvass yet it is well for the people
of the county to have ample oppor
tunity to discuss and welch the
merits and capacities of the nspir
ants. It is for their own interests
to do so, nnd if the voter would pay
more attention on a man's fitness
for the position he assumes to fill
nnd less to his particular political
propensities there might, nnd would
bo far less reason for grumbling t
high taxes nnd incompetency in
office It is a matter of dollars nnd
cents to taxpayers, and not a quos
tion of tariff or sound money. Our
nominees nre all men worthy of the
positions to which they have been
nominated, nnd would make officials
creditable to the County and upon
the people could rely to administer
the affairs of tho respective offices
with fidelity and ability. Keep
them in mind and work steadily
for their election.
ROWLAND SNUBBED.
No mention is made of the Hon.(?)
Lafayette Rowland, State Senator
of this District, in the report of the
Committee on Resolutions nt the
May meeting. That gontloman's
connection with the Delaware Dam
Bill is still fresh in the minds of his
constituents. Daily Times.
The cause given by the Times ex
presses tho idoa succinctly. Mon
roe Democrat.
The statesman from tho Lacka
waok may fool profoundly grateful
that for any cause whatever his
name was not oouplod with tho res
olutions which that aggregation of
Bryanitos ycleped the Monroe coun
ty Democratic Convention disgorged
at their meeting. Bettor to his
everlasting credit bo oonnocted
with any dam bill than have his
name associated with that farrago of
political olap trap.
Some newspapers were loudly
shouting ovor what they called the
negligence of the authorities in not
meeting and wiping out the Spanish
fleet. Such forget that there is a
wide waste of waters Alloa with in
numerable islands, around and
among which the Spaniards can
dodge and hide. If they wish to be
elusive and avoid an encounter un
til they feel prepared or are ready,
it is a diOicult task for our slower
squadron to locate or overtake them
j-ei tne carping caitics wait until
the end crowns the work and thon
if the result is adverse or shows
. incompetency they will have ground
for their strictures. Their dodge
Is to sell papers by keeping up son
Rational rumors and speculations as
to events, which they rver ought to
happen, and theu to blame some
one because they do not.

excellent cut of the Conashaugh

that the bridge was built in the fall

MEMORIAL SERMON.
PREACHED IN THE PRESBYTERIAN
CHURCH. COL. JOHN NYCE. POST O.
A. R. ATTENDS IN A BODY, AN AI1I.E
SERMON BY THE PASTOR.
Arrangements wore made by the
Post, in pursuance of the general
request made by tho Department,
that a sermon be preached on n pa
triotic topic, and tho larga congre
gation which attended evidenced
tho interest which is felt by the
community at this time in the old
soldiers, aroused, no doubt, in part
by the fact that our young men are
now going out- to suffer the priva
tions and dangers of war. The
church was tastefully decorated
with flowers and the National Em
blem. The Post assombled and the
war worn veterans marched in a
body to liston to tho patriotic and
eloquent sermon which fell from
the lips of the pastor, Rev. Thos.
Nichols, who, after prayer by Rev.
W. R. Neff, and sincine, "Shall We
Moot?" by the choir, took bis text
from Numbers, 32 chapter, 20, 21,
and 22 verses and Luke I ; 71-75.
Tho theme was the gain to Ameri
can citizenship from the success of
our armies. In the General Assom.
hly, now in session at Winona, Ind.,
a motion was made to roquest that
so far as possible battles be avoided
on hunilny. me assertion was
mnde that this was a holy war, and
on a vote the motion was lost.
The speaker assorted bis bolief
in the everlasting rightoousness
of the causo for which the Union
soldiers fought. It was a war for
liberty, the liberty of the slaves, as
is tho present war one for the liber
ty of tho Cubans. The success of
our army saved to us our American
citizenship, and that conveys more
to us than it did to our fathers. It
also established tho fact that the
Union is stronger than tho individ
ual State. T9ekson solved the ques
rion ns to a single State, but tho war
for the Union demonstrated it as to
the number ot States smth. of Ma
son's and Dixon's Lino. It also cre
ated a dooponing of our sentiment
of loyalty dovolopod tho material
rosourcos of the Union and of the
South. It broadened our humanity
and our cry should not be "Remem
ber tho Maine," but Remember the
Cubans ; remember humanity Our
siftscess caused tho sections to re
spect each other, and established
tho right, so well asserted by Presi.
dent Cleveland, to put down insur
rections no matter in what section
of the country, if they become det
rimental to National interests. As
the war was instrumental in bring
ing about theso gains he hoped it
could bo said that it had brought
greater accessions to tho church.
It is hardening in its operations on
the mind, blunts tho sensibilities to
suffering and while it arouses pa
triotism, awakens a keener love of
liberty and broadens a sonse of right,
but does not create religious im
pulses, which tho spoakor hopod
might como, and in oarnest words
urged upon his hearers. Rogarding
the prosont war, it is for tho prin
ciple that all men should bo froo to
throw off a yoke of tyranny and
oppression, and for the same princi
ple for which our forefathers fought.
The .condition of the Cubans was
intolerable, and we could not, as a
Nation, look with indifference on
their struggles. We are right in thus
aiding them, and should render our
moral support to the government
whioh, after the failure of diplom
acy, looked upon armed interven
tion as a necessity, Not adhering
to Decatur's words, "My Country!
May My Country Always Ba in the
Right 1 but. Right or Wrong, My
Country ;" but giving our aid ar.d
our prayers bocause we believe she
is eternally in the right in her pres
ent effort to aid an oppressed poo
plo to enjoy tho. 'same froodom
which the God of battles enabled
our armies to win for us.
As the Sun Sees Them.
Tho Democrats of Monroe County,
Pennsylvania, havo taken the trou
ble to pass a resolution wherein they
"deprecate the incompetency" of the
Administration in the conduct of the
war. It is surmised that this resolu
tion was prepared in order to coun
teract any impression that may exist
anywhere that the Domocratio vote
in Pennsylvania is likely to becomo
unpleasantly and even offensively
largo. That vote must be kept down
no matter how many resolutions
may have to be hurled in order to
accomplish the generous purpose

De Tocqueville's Vision.
The Americans will bocome onoof
the greatest people of tho world
They will cover all North America ,
The continent which they inhabit is
their domain. It cannot escape them.
So, in the middt of tho uncertainty
of the future, there is at leasfr one
evont which is certain. At an epoch
which we can call near the Autrlo-
Americans will spread from the polar
ice to tiie sou t.u seas. Alexis do Toc-
queville, 1835.
THEY WANT BRYAN.
MONROE DEMOCRATS HAVE RKSOI.l'TED.
There has been some little im
patience manifested and perhaps nn
occasional bit of profanity expressed
at the unusual amount of wet weath
er this spring. Somo said spots on
the sun, others said our Cuban re
lations, and wo have heard various
other reasons, mora or loss trivial
given ns tho cause, but it turns out
that tha Monroe Democrats had
something on their minds, nnd noth
ing not even tho weather could be
settlod until some relief was afford
ed them. The turgid clouds whioh
have rolled np from the south have
been emblematical of the aforesaid
democratic minds, and now that
they have been pnnotuod with a con
vention into which . they poured n
lot of triple plated gilt edged griev
ances, and endorsed By ran, harmony
and pence must pervade tho spheres,
and tho wet weather will likely like
the Monroe Democrats dry up for a
time.
There has been a snenking notion
among some democrats that MeKin-
ley and his advisors wero making
a great mistake in tho management
of tho wnr. He mado the first mis
take in being elected President, in
stead of allowing Byran, the honor.
If we only had tho "B y Orator" in
tno Cnair, no could corner every
Spanish son-of-a-gun, and talk them
to death with 10 to 1 in a day or two.
Ho could bombard tho fleets with
froo trade thoories and out bombast
tho bombastieal Captain Gonoral
Angusti himself, and could have
knocked "1" out of Manila with
them quicker than Dowoy did with
his big guns.
mo Monroe Democrats ovinoo a
high order of patriotism by thus in
directly snarling nt tho hools of the
bravo boys who have gono out, not
inly irom their own, but other
lountiosin this Commonwealth, and
by trying to inject politics in the
war.
This, however, is only a repeti
tion of what thny did in 1861,
and tho lamp of experience ought to
bo soma guide to their footstops.
Not content with Jhoir arraign,
ment of tho Republicans in Pennsyl
vania and tho National administra
tion, especially, those unterrifiod
gentlemen of Monroe pay their re
s poets to one of their own whilom
loaders, and givo him a dose which
may causo him some unrest and
leave a bad taste in his month for
minute or two if he swallows it

animously :
"Resolved, that tho Democracy

and condomn its course in tho en

Growing Strawberries.
Strawberries can bo raised on al
most any good farm soil, but a rich
sandy loam is preferable. P16w the
ground in the fall, thon in the sprin
roplow and pulverize thoroughly
planting as soon as danger from
frost in past. Cultivate throughout
tho season, keeping a loose layer of
earth on tho top to act as a mulch
As soon as tho ground is frozen so
mat it win bear np a team, cover
with hay, straw or coarse manure
of any kind. Leave this on until all
danger of frost is past in the spring
thon rake off the rows and let it re
main betwoen them until the berrie
are picked, after which cut off tho
plants with a mower and when
there is a brisk breeze, burn tne
whole patch .

Enriching Orchards.
Orchards will in time exhaust, n t
least partially, the fertility of the

noticeable on soils which wero not
especially rich nt the time the trees

should bo used, containing a small

mixed with potash nnd phosphates.
For oltW orchards the nitroixou is
not so np"essary while phoshntos

It is frequently a pood plan to
