HIS complaint is that Mr, Miller will not
remove Lew Myers as Master of
Thonpsontown, and appoint whom he
may indicate. This Mr.. Miller has re.
fused to do. Now. fer this he desires to
break up the party, and boasts that Della
ware township must go as he says. and
that if he is not grstiied, it viii 30 L.o-
cofoco. We appeal to the Republicans Of
Delaware to beware Of the plan of Mr.,
Lukens, and preserve the integrity OF
your party. His course in certain local
matters will satisfy the people what kind
OF a man he is. The people OF Delaware
township know whether he is considered
a consistent, reliable Republican.
d. b. Spanosle, OF Lack, is also one of
the firm. Now. as he is unknown to fame.
We will help to bring hun cut. He is a
heGgy fellow. very smart in his own con
ceit. Some Of his neighbo.s think he is
q fool, but We will not argue the point
They should know him best. He helped
TO RAISE a company Tor the 49;h regiment
in Gl, and was elected a Lieutenant. lie
urged everybody to 90, and said be ,coaGI
crash the rcbeHion himscJ. Well, he
went On TO Washington, laid around there
all the winter Of '62, behaved very bravely
at the mess-tabie, pay table and on parade,
but when the order to march toward Rich
moud came, Lieut.. Spanogle sottencd
down very rapidly, and COMPROMISED with
the rebels by ~resigElag his commission
bold as a sheep and hurried home.
he could read in safety the record Of the
heroic actions OF the gallant 18th under
Gems. Mcclellan, Burnside, Hooker and
Meade. He still lives. He says Lack
Tuscarora and Black Log "must jump
when he crack his whip" He is a can
dida'e for the Legislature this year, aud
we announce his name. lie says he con
trolls the above townships, and ;hey must
give him the delegates. We think he
will find himself mistaken. and that the
sensible Republicans OF those townships
will moi jump when he cracks his whip.
Don't be afraid Of him. He talks very
loud and very brave, but he did not scare
the rebels, and we ipn't think he can scare
any good men or man in Junia,a county.
G. ". Strouse is another member of
this firm. He ran twice for Legislature
and was beaten both times in this county
from 600 to 1000. He has tried to get
the nomination several times and faile d.
because he is, as all admit, the most un
popular man in the county. He wanted
the nomination for Senate in 81, but was
afraid to come ont unless a certain set of
men who have influence would 20 for him.
which they refused. and since then he has
been trying to d~isorgsnize. He now is a
candidate for Senate in 1867, and has
started the Republican to force himself
upon the ticket. Let Mr. Strouse explain
WIZ he voted during the session OF 1865
for the Mifilin County Bank Bill, and
why he voted against the bill to make the
Pennsylvania Rail Road Company pay
back into the Treasury $500. 900 reieasei
to them by the passage of the bill to re
peal the Tonnage Tax We can tell, if
he wants the public t. know. We can
give his reason for voting on %certain other
bills during that session, IF be wants us
This information might increase his chan.
ces for Senate. He SAYS he can c~ontrol
Turbett, Walker and Perrysvi,ie, that
every body is under him aud must do his
bidding. We hope the people will settle
Mr.. Stronse and his aspirations. There
are two or three other miserable creatures
in this conspiracy, but We will not dignity
them with a notice. The Republican
clique are the very men who always want
Office, make the most noise at Delegate
Elections, and as nominations are never
made to suit them, they are the men who
vote against the ticket, and have consist
emily doue so since 1862, and thus have
done all in their power to break down the
party aud increase the Democratic major
ity. The Republican is encouraged by
the Locofocos and vii. be urged by them
to get up a big fight in cur ranks, aud
thus secure the certain defeat of all our
county and district tickets. The Loco
foeos very well know the County Conven-
ton will not have in it a representative Of
the HcpuJiican faction, aud they then
hope they will oppose the ticket. They
promise TO support the nomination Of
course, TO deceive the party, ard If posi-
