ResOEUed, That we specially invite the 1920
democrats who voted for the loco foco Congress
in Adams, Beaver, Bedford, Butler, Centre,
Chester, Dauphin, Delaware, Greene, Hunting
don, Lancaster, Mercer, MiffliR, Towanda and
Tioga, and who afterwards voted for the Harri-
son electoral ticket in 1886, TO again poll their
votes in favor of the HARRISON electoral ticket.
RESOLVED, That ii is fair to infer that the State
will poll majority of votes on Friday next in
favor of the party that carried both branches of
the Legislature, legislative triumph, by the
way, that had not entered into the calculations
of the friends of Mr.. Van Buren,, either in or out
of this Commonwealth.
ReSolUed, That our Conservative friends, in
every ward, township and district in the State,
be requested to bear in mind that single vote
in neighborhood should not be overlooked at
the approaching election.
ReSolved, That the thanks of the meeting be
given to DIR. Sutherland for his able and efiec-
tive address this evening.
ResotUed, That these proceedings be pub
lished.

THE JoURNEYMEN BooT-MAKERs.- The
Boston Times says:
"In the Municipal Court yesterday, seven
Journeymen were convicted on the indictment
upon which they have, for several days been
on trial, which indictment charged them main
" with conspiracy to improverish other per-
sons; and the charge was founded Oh the fact,
that they have formed ALI Association, the OBJ
iect of which is to fix certain rates, which, by
other rates of wages for particular kinds OF
work, and to compel the members of the Assoc
citation to adhere to those rates. which, by eth
err measures, all journeymen are compelled to
become members, either by heavy fines, or by
a refusal of the members to work in the same
shop with those who refuse to submit.
ExcHANGE,-The project of building an
Exchange on the vacant lot in State street for
merly occupied by the State Bank, has been
renewed, and with good prospect that it will
be carried into effect The cost of the land and
building is estimated at 1910, 900, and it is cal
culated that the rents will yield profit of near
ly 8 per cent on the investment. The stock is
TO be divided into shares of $500 each. All
but 100 shares have already been taken.-Bos-

ment; though, when compared with the COM
mencement of the fall business of former years,
the present falls far behind the past. AS to

sing,
The receipts of Lead at st. Louis, during
the week ending 18th instant, were large
amounting to %, $50 pigs. Freights from Ga
lena to st. Louis were high, but owners had no
alternative except to yield to the demands Of

winter.
