'One sGrehead stopped his paper
last week, but ten others subscribed!
That was pretty good week for
soreheads subscribers but then we
predicted how it would be, when we
saw all those announcements in the
papers of Clarion. AS near as we
can find out about half the population
Of that county were out for Office, and
only one to each Office got the nomin-
alton. This makes soreheads, but we
don't consider it exactly courteous to
his subscribers, for Porter to come
right out square and call them "sorc-
heads" They are undoubtedly just
what Mr.. Porter calls them but it
sometimes happens that nothing
makes men "madder" than to tell the
truth about them.
District Attorney Mason has
erected that awning in front of his
office, and has treated the office as well
the awning, to new coat of paint.
The improvement is remarkable.
Mr.. II. G. Tinker, the Hardware
merchant, of Oil City, called on US
yesterday. He is a good business man
and supplies good part of this region
with his wares. We can conscientious.
ly recommend him to our dealers as a
man who will do as we'll by them as
any one in his line of business.
Monday afternoon as S. G. Sloan
and Jas. Black we're boating some
stone to fill up the ice-breaker now
being constructed, the load being a
little heavy, the boat foundered.
Black went in, and displaced so much
water that the lumberman below went
Immediately to look atIhe cables on
their RATS, thinking flood was COM
ing that might carry away their lum-
ber. When Black got out the river
fell, and now mcandcrs along the low

"A gentleman in Harmony twp.
called oh us little over two weeks
ago and asked us to say through our
columns that the road in Tionesta
twp, from the depot to the Harmony
line was badly out of repair, and that
the Supervisors had better fix IL up at
once. We charged our mind especial
ly with that suggestion, and calculated
to put in an item which would make
the aforesaid supervisors tremble in
their boots but we were making pre-
paration to go fishing, and forgot that
such a thing as a road in Tionesta
twp. ever existed. In our cooler mo-
ments it comes back to us like COM
ct, and we haste to say Supervisors,
repair those road !"
