LETTER FROM CHEST TOWNSHIP.
CnEsr CRrrK. Oct. ALT. lsz

CHEST CREEK, Oct. 3lst, 1871.
Mr., EDiroR In your last issue sec that You
are dealing out little good advice to the Demo
Gratis Of Beccaria, Pike and Karthaus. | am sor
ry that you did not extend your counsel to Chest,
for some of our woud-be most strenuous Demo.
cratic stcklors for the nomination, (that is when
they were in sound Democratic company) needed
good deal of talking to on supporting the nom
inee for Assessor. We met aud put in nomination
for Assessor man whose qualifications to dis
charge the duties of that Office are In all respects
save that of age, superior to those of the gentle.
man elected Why "bo this thusY" There was
certainly some motive in vow, and It appears to
me dishonorabc one at that. Give tho matter
dispassionate consideration for one moment.
Think Of eighteen or twenty Democrats voting for
the Republican candidate for Assessor, and among
them the heavy artillery of the party. This IA
certainly not gratuitous job. We know them
up here, or at least some of them. They came
down fat-footed. Their tracks were to lie seen in
the sand How can any party prosper with such
men in It, who will sell their brthright for mess
of Radical pottoge. Perhaps this is the new de-
parture aud the lesser lights do not understand It.
Consequently we cannot appreciate it. Ifit brings
about such results in a township, it is not to be
wondered at that the party was so shamcfully dc.
ieatcd throughout the State II would have been
better for the Democratic party if the new depar-
turcisis and its aiders and abcttors had been in
Tophet, pumping thunder at ha'pcnny n clap,
than trying to force the monstrous doctrine down
the throats Of the Simon pure Democracy. No,
gentlemen, no more such nasty, sinking stuff.
One dose has proved sufficient. It is to be hoped
that our next Democratic State Convention will
set all things right again, and give us a good,
sound, progressive Democratic platform, with De
mocracy on plate aud negroism and radcalism,
with all its crimes, which are legion, on another,
and then we will go into the fight to win. shal,
keep an eye on this new departure in this locality,
and If it plays fast and loose, shall keep you
informed Of It's freaks. Picker.
n. B. There is no disparagement intended as to
the qualifications of the Assessor elect He is a
kind neighbor and good citizen, but be is no
Democrat, and on election day he carries his views
into effect. When the township was hopclcssly
Republican, he gave no quarter-his motto was,
to the vietors belong the spois. ITo has about as
much love for Democracy as the devil has for holy
water. p.
I'VE stand corrected. We overlooked the dirty
work done in Chest township, several weeks ago,
when we called the attention of our readers to the
local freaks in some Of the townships on election

Why NOT Buy AT HoME?-Wo no.
tce that portion of our citizens still persist in
patronizing the retail stores on Chestnut and

good fashionable and cheap clothing and wearing

In the line Of ladies' wear, tho stores Of Reed
Brothers and Mrs Watson contain sll that the
most fashionable need or could desire, and for q
loss price than they be purchased in the city.
We confess that we are what is generally termed
a"lrcc trader" but our views are Of wholesale,
rather than retail, character, Neighborhool

be carried on to the mutual benefit Of ALL Besides,
the enterprise Of our Clearfeld merchants demands
Che Patronage Of the citizens Of the county.
