n% Fayetteville had an un.

usual sight on Sunday morning
last, about 8 o'clock, in the des-
truction by fire ofthe residence of
Capt. Davis w. Clark. When
discovered the whole of the rear
OF the building was destroyed, and
the front was wrapped in flames:
so that the inmates had barely
time to escape with their lives
The furniture, provisions, books,
wearing apparel, family memen-
toes, etc, were lost, except the
family bible, two beds, and a rock
ing chair. Capt Clark's loss is
about $1,000, with no insurance.
The dwelling was a new, tasteful
structure, erected last year by Col.
j. e. Carrigan. 1t was Swned
by a widow lady, Mrs. Wilson.
and was insured I'M Orgia
Home, of Columbus, for $4,000.
The fire originated in the kitchen.

to the immense business conduc-
ted by Briggs & Brother, the cele.
brated Seedsmen aid Florists, of
Rochester, New York, and now
we are reminded of the same
house by copy Of one OF their
elegant Chromos, representing
the most life.like and artistic
groupings of ANIMALS, biennials
and perennials, as true to life as is
possible to paint them. For the
second time Briggs & Brother
have more than fulfilled all the
promises in their advertisements /;
in the first place, issuing an H.
Illustrated Catalogue which excels
in beauty and excellence anything
of the kind we have seen, and
now the Chrome is really a most
elegant floral ornament, suitable
to frame and a fit adornment for
any parlor. We advise our read

have no doubt, that they will see
their way clear by the induce

The Honest TOtcrs Of this District
to be Vofed DOW.n bU Negroes
from Maryland.

Negroes from Maryland and Virginia
are being brought into this State and dis
trict by the Cameron leaders to carry the
elections, county, district and State, against
the honest voters who will not be influ-
enced to vote for men set up by Cameron.
a. a. BARKER, nominee for Con-
gress in this District, has hand III the dis
graceful business. On Thursday morning
last squad of some fifteen negroes from
Maryland arrived in the early morning
train at Altoona, where they were met by
Mr.. BARKER, who gave them his atten-
tion, and shipped them to the new road
now being made in the upper end of Blair
county. One of the colOred men told our
informant, who is citizen Of this place
that NJ. Barker was their employer, Mr.
Barker knew the negroes were to be there
| and he was on hand to receive them and
locate them where their votes would count
for him, and against Hon. r. Milton
Speer, our townsman. Has it come To this
that our best citizens must be voted down
by ignorant negroes from Maryland who
can be bought and sold like cattle? Is it
for such base purposes the poor negroes
were freed from their masters? Is it not
enough that the negroes have their politi-
cal rights equal to the white man where
they claim residence? Must they be per-
mitted to control elections where they
have no political rights? Will the honest
voters of this Congressional District submit
to having their rights outraged by such
base means? Will they agree that BAR
kER, who is guilty OF employing such
means, shall be elected to a seat in Con-
gress? We had hoped to have nothing
to say of Mr.. Barker during this campaign,
but u man who can be guilty of an at
tempt to crush an honest vote of our pco-
pie by means such as he is making use OF
is not deserving the respect or support Of
any party, and We believe that the honest
voters of the District, irrespective of par
ty, will give their opinions At the ballot
box against his base conduct by voting for
X. Milton Speer, who could not think OF re-
sorting to such dcspicable means to elect
himself over any man HuHtinJ Jdo" Globe,

John H0Iludn.

II there is anything certain i'll the coming
election it is the success of Mr.. HANSAN,
the Democratic candidate for Assembly,
and it is emincntly fit that such should be
the case. Born and reared in our midst,
having grown up with the county, he is
perfectly familiar with our people and their
wants. With pure and spotless personal
character, and being unconnected with any
ring or clique, he can and win represent the
people faithfully. \ born Democrat, in
ured to honest industry his whole life is a
proof that he will stand by the rights and
interests of the people he is to represent.
The Radical candidate, SANUEL HENRY,
is the pet of the CAMERON N-HARTRANFT-
MACKRY ring. Elected last year by Demo-
Gratis Oh the falte assurance that he was as
good Democrat as Mr.. RosE, from the day
posed every Democratic measure and every
Democratic man that came before the Leg
islature. He voted for the notorious MAC
KEY for State Treasurer and for the infa-
nous Congressional Apportionmcnt bill,
which, if it had been signed by the Cover
nor, WouIu Have PldCou \dioIi" CouhlS III
an overwhelming Radical district.
SIMON CAMERON is the embodiment Of all
that is vile and corrupt in politics. He
will be the caucus nominee for United
States Senator next winter, and SAMUEL
HENRY, if reelected, will vote for him.
BUCKALEw will be elected Governor, and
will want Democratic Legislature to sus-
tain him against the Treasury Ring and i'll
his efforts to recover the State from the
vampires that are devouring her very exist
ence. JOHN HANNAH will support him in
his efforts to restore an honest government
SAMUEL HENRY will oppose him.
Where in this county is there Democrat
worthy of the name who will not vote to
sustain BUCKALEw and Democracy by vot-
ing for JoHN HANNAN?

Register !-ReOister :!

Leteyery Democrat remember that SAT-
URDAY, :he 2sth day of this month. is
the last day upon which a voter can he
registered. We urge upon two active DEM
ocrats in each election district to call on
the registering officer at once and examine
the list Of voters, and if any name has
bern omitted to have it inserted. 1t is of
vast importance that this matter should be
promptly attended to. 1t will not take
much time to doit, and as every Democrat
ic vote in the county nwst be polled At the
October election, we trust it will not be ne
elected in single district.

WKwere informed last week by staunch
and reliable democrat who resides in a
township immediately west of this, that he
had recently been approached by a promi-
nent Radical in that township, who, with
~ smile that was child-like and bland,
proposed to him that if he would vote for
HENRY for Assembly, he Che Radical)
would vote for BUCKALEw for Governor.
Every intelligent Republican in the coun-
ty comedies the election of BUCKALEw by an
overwhelming majority over HARTRANFT,
and hence any number of Radicals will
turn up between this and the election who,
in their anxiety to secure the success OF
SAMUEL. HENRY, will meanly desert HAIR
TRANFT and agree to vote for BUCKALEw,
provided they can influence Democrats to
vote for HENRY.
We trust that no Democrat will consent
to any such silly proposition, the advantage
OF which would all be on the Radical side,
for the simple reason that the Democrats
and Liberal Republicans in the State car
and uM elect BUCKALEw, and the Democ-
racy of this county can and uM elect JoHS
HANNAN.
Let every Democrat stand firm and pre-.
serve his his own politicalintegrity. Let nc
bargains or alliances be made or entered
into with Radical sharpers, like the one t.
which we have referred. Such expedient,
as this, and scores like it, will be attempted
to defeat HANSAS and elect HENRY. But
Democrats well understand the importance
of the issue in this county and therefore
cannot be seduced from discharging their
whole duty in the premises This done and
all will be well.

Mr.. Mcclure then referred to the pros
poets in the State. He said that from every
part of the State the reports were most
cheering. In Philadelphia We will make
fraud hide in terror before election day,
and the boasted majority of 1900 to 15,-
600 will vanish. (Cheers.) So far, in every
State that has voted, the Grant loss com
pared with previous equally full votes, has
been most significant of disaster to them.
They jollify over North Carolina because
they have manufactured n nominal major
ity 10y fraud, where, four years ago, they
had 5000. They boast of West Virginia
because Greeley man was defeated for
Governor but they forgot to tell that a
Greeley man was elected. Laughter and
cheers.) They claim victory where they
did not venture to run a Grant candidate,
although four years ago they elected their
Governor by 100. They shout themselves
hoarse over Vermont, where they have lost
100 on any previous vote with So large n
poll. They are wild with joy over Maine,
where they have lost twenty-five per cent.
Of the Grant majority, and where the per-
centage of Republican loss, if applied to
Pennsylvania, would beat them $4,000.
(Applause.)
Be of good cheer, friends. The battle
will De desperate, as power and venality
always battles for existence, but the people
will sweep the cOrmorants Of our State
from power in October by an rwhelming
vote, and November will sweep ITSELF
(Applause.)

CAMBRIA COUNTY has always been fortu-
nate in her local government. Although
she was subjected to a heavy expense in
defending against injunctions in regard to
her Jail, which the Commissioners were
compelled to build by the decision of the
Grand Jury and the instruction Of the
Court, the building was finished at less
than the contract price, and every citizen il
proud that we have building sufficient to
secure every criminal and at the same time
serve as All ornament and credit to the
county. Other counties have not been SO
fortunate. The radical county of Blair
erected Jail building near about the same
timo. The contract was lower than the
Cambria Jail, but it cost her over S25, 900
more than our jail building. The radical
county of Indiana, (the strongest radical
county in the State, built Court House
at the same time. The contract was $115,-
600, but it cost over $175, 600, and, besides,
some $50, 900 of the bonds were stolen by
radical office-holders. We just cite these
adjoining radical counties rs specimen
bricks" to set off against the abuse of
faitful officers in Cambria county.

ARRAHAM AxDALrs1A BARKER, in

ABRAHAM ASDALUsIA BARKER, in the
recesses of that cool mountain retreat
Cresson, on Friday last (inauspicious day, J
on the 2S2d ballot, knocked the radical
Congressional persimmon. Two of the
Miffiin county conferees succumbed to the
persuasive eloquence of the Cambria coun-
ty giant, and STEEL BLAIR's goose is cook
ed for this campaign. GEO. FRYsINGEK
and DAVID MILLISES were the confcrees
from this county who yielded up to the
ghost OF shuckdom, and BARKER is now
plucked and plumed for the fight. Well.
he covers good deal of ground, but not
enough to beat our gallant young SPEER,
who is acknowledged the ablest and best
representative the district has had since
it was created. There is some rather grace
fully rounded profanity pcrvading the elite.
and some not SO fifty joined together among
still others of the radical persuasion over
this result. SeHtiaeI.
