UNIONTOWN.

DURING the absence of Mr.. Benja-
min BrOkaw and family On Thursday
afternoon, his residence was broken
into, and money to the amount Of sixty
dollars taken. Mr.. B. thinks that the
drawers were unlocked with the key of
the Sewing Machine case, and the thief
had prudently covered up all traces OF
the theft in order to delay discovery
We do not know how many bullets Mr..
Brokaw has put in the gun, but we feel
inclined to the belief, that should he
re turn he will wear black-walnut
overcoat when he leaves and that his
course will be toward the cemetery.
WE infer that our Democratic friends
in this place VINO took such an active
part and who lectured so strongly in
favor of Prohibition during the recent
popular temperance movement, will at
the coming election, vote the Prohibit
ton ticket, and not the one which fa-
vors license and the sale of intoXica-
ting liquors. Show us your faith by
compelled to ''vOmit up your sweet
Words or in modern parlance, go back
cn you. NOw's your chance.
OUR friends have canned their toma-
toes, dug their potatoes, and picked
their little white beans. Now they go
forth with sacks and ladders to harvest
the early Penock and the late Bellfiow
er, and the surgeons having read of the
terrible fall experienced by Adam in
apple picking time, spend their leisure
time now that the fever has abated in
whiting out splints and wondering
who will be first to hold on with his
eyelids while he picks with both hands
from the top bough.
Two hundred dollars has been allow
ed for the grading of our streets and
the supervision given to Mr.. william
Caldwell whom we feel assured will
attend to the matter in right way
We may have more to say in the fu-
ture concerning this matter-and per-
haps furnish some light reading as re-

great interest to Taxpayers.

A CARD.

Edwin Owens, eX-Marshal of Bellaire.
was indebted to me for livery to the
amount of $500. Sometime during
the Summer Term of Court ('74), Mr..
Owens, Sheriff Cochran and myself
were together in st. Clairsville. Mr..
Owens told Sheriff Cochran in my pres
ence and hearing, to pay me 1920
from the first money received by him
for Owens. During the Fair at St.
Clairsville, I received from the Sheriff
$500 which he told me was all the
money he had received for Mr.. Owens.
l credited Owens with that amount on
his account, and told him (Owens) of
the transaction, and he informed me
that it was all right.
RICHARD CRoZIER.
And to the letter of Owen, which we
also received yesterday, and which was
written after he had called to mind all
the circumstances in the case:
BELLAIRE, O., Oct. 6, 1874.
EDITOR CHRONICLE, Sir-About a
week or ten days ago my attention
was called to an article published IN the
st. Clairsville Gazette, in regard to a
difficulty between J. F. Simpson and
w. G. Cochran, in which my name was
called in question. Thinking, of course,
the article in the Gazette was likely
true, l Immediately got out of humor,
and sat down and wrote a note to
Cochran and Simpson, telling Cochran
he was certainly mistaken about the
payment of the money; but in order to
set all parties right, I have since inves-
tigated the matter, and am perfectly
that 1 would have disposed
of the money just as Cochran did un-
der the circumstances, had 1 been in
his place. EDWIN OWEN.
Now, we frankly admit that we have
given more space to this matter than
its magnitude deserves; and only have
as an apology for doing so, that we
were unwilling that the character of an
officer against whose official life there
has not been a breath of suspicion,
should be trsduced and villified by a
pack of hungry vultures, whose only
object is personal gain.

The Sheriff and His Accusers.

THE mean and contenplible manner
by which Chaiiesworth and his dirty
cohorts attempt to injure Sheriff Coch-
ran, and make political capital out of a
difficulty provoked by J. f. Simpson,
is below the dignity of anybody less
execrsble either to the honest men of
his own, or any other party, than this
same Chairman of the Democratic Com
nittee. He is the paid attorney of
Simpson, and concocts, writes and pub
fishes falsehoods to suit his own de-
signs.
= The Gazette, in its issue Of this week,
undertakes to palliate and deny the
conduct of Simpson, by publishing a
statement from the physician of Simp-
son, Dr.J. C. Tallman, that he was
treating him for the dysentery-'that
he was not intoxicate d'-'that he had
not been drinking &c. With all due
respect to DIR. j. c. Tallman, whose
opinion in that especial branch of med
ical science ought to be valuable, we
would suggest that to the sober citizens
of this place, his card will have its o,cn
weight in establishing charges Of a
baser sort against the honorable profess
sion. Mr.. John c. Tallman olt0M to
know, and half score of people do
know whether Mr.. S. had been drink
ing.
The card written by Charlesworth,
and signed at his solicitation, by two
of his stable boys, and two school boys,
between the ages OF 10 and IA, dis
proves nothing that Sheriff G. publish
ed in his card. The fact is, as one of
these same boys informs us, that they
were not present, and heard nothing
of the difficulty, save perhaps the blus.
ter of Simpson as he left the Sheriff g
office.
Mr.. Jas. Ryan, who reached the
scene shortly after the difficulty, in
forms US that the boys did not come ur,-
tit after he arrived.
We knoW ourselves, and we were
standing in full view of the Sheriff g
door, looking in that direction, that the
boys were not there until after the trou-
BILE. So much for this small effort of
an exceedingly small parsonage to get
up dimlnutive case against an eff
lcient officer.
Now as regards the duty of the Sher-
iff to pay the small sum of $500 to
Richard Crozier, we simply cali atten-
ton to the following card of Crozier
received yesterday:

Connecticut Town Elections.

HARTFORD, Oct. 5-The town cleo
tions in Connecticut to-day were for
town officers, and local questions enter
ed largely into the choice of these, so
that politicel lines were not closely ad-
hered to. In CHASING towns as Repub-
lican or Democratic it is meant that
one or the other party has a majority
in the Board of Selectnen, containing
the town clerk. Also the towns voted
on the license question, and constitu-
tional amendment, giving the towns of
over 5000 inhabitants, two representa-
tives in the Legislature. In the towns
in eastern Connecticut, there were
silly hit but general Republican gains.
The constitutional amendment was
generally favored by large majorities.

Republicans of Belmont County

There never was a time when your
bounden duty to labor for the success
of your party was more imperative
than nO,0. We fear many feel luke
warm, not from any want of fidelity to
principle or fealty to party, bat from a
spirit of Indifference to success. Re-
publicans, this spirit is unworthy of
you and your glorious record. Quit
you like men, be strong turn out and
labor for the ticket, and we know we
but reflect your better sentiment-"I
rejoice was induced to discharge my
duty this day." We feel we have but
to remind the party that saved the
country, that their services are again
needed in her behalf, to meet hearty
response at the ballot box. We i'm
plore you, don'tle let assumed victory, if
you work, slip from your grasp, by any
apathy on your part. Let each one
not only go himself, but bur give your
country one more day in getting 9TH
ers to the polls-the aged, the indiffer-
ent, the infirm, and all that need your
help.

Democratic Extravaganza to the
Front!
A Tax of $4,000 Sought to be
Levied on Belmont County!

AS year after year passes, the results
of extravaganza, and Democratic neg
ligence, in the management of the at-
fairs of the people of Belmont county,
becomes more and more apparent.
When the CHRONICLE, the first senti-
mel on the ramparts, informed the tax
PAYERS that Democratic officials were
plundering them, and that their mis-
management in the matter of building
Macadamized roads, and in carrying
forward other public Improvements
was bankrupting and running the cred
it Of the county, and that certain DEM
ocratic officials were responsible, a
great howl went up from the outra-
ged Bourbon politicians and Office
holders, and straightway libel suit
was entered against the then Editor of
this paper, and he was compelled from
lack of being sustained by public Opin-
ion, to retract in some degree, his pub
lished statements.
Time and Republican successes in
the county, developed beyoI.d doubt
that the charges then made were more
than true. Miserable mismanagement
of the public business; carelessness, ,bor-
dering on criminality, and criminality
itself, has been shown to have existed
to an alarming extent.
Public funds were used for private
purposes; the peoples. money was mis-
applied, and recklessness and extrava-
gance were shown to have existed in
every Office in the county.
However 10th people were to be-
lieve that this state of things did actu-
ally exist, the most skeptical are now
thoroughly convinced,
They are convinced that there is
deficit of over BIZ, 900 on the Warnock
and Somerton Roads, and that there
are small deficits In other accounts, and
that there is no money 70 the credit of
