The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1874-06-17
-From some who pretend to know,

be, financially, the boss council 1or
some time to come. The tax dupli
Gates are in the hands of Judge Pro-
per, who is making the money on them
faster than any other collector within
our recollection. This being the case,
why would it not be good idea for
the present council to purchase some
fire apparatus? A hand engine which
will cast few hundred dollars, may
save our town thousands of dollars
worth of property. No man can tell,
unless he starts it, what hour a oonAa-
grafton may take place, which will, in
our powerless condition, endanger the
whole town. Gentlemen, suppose you
talk the matter up.
Some unregenerate cuss, who will
undoubtedly bring up in the Peniten-
tiary or insane asylum, sent us two
columns of advertisements purporting
to come from our New York Agents,
Geo. p. Rowell & Co. On the same
day we received postal card from
Messrs. Rowell e. Co. saying that their
name was forged to the circular.
Words fail us when we attempt to
paint the depth Of cussedness possess
ed by The sforesaid forger or forgers.
If ever we had been betrayed into
putting those ads. in, we would have
been enraged. AS it is we are glad that
our agents keep their eyes open SO
wide, and we feel pretty good because
we were not sold.
w. H. Dimmick, the Democratic
Assemblyman from Wayne county,
who set up job last winter to make
some money out of the banks of the
State, and to a certain extent succeed
ed, but who was detected in the act,
has been discarged by the U. S. Court
f because the grand jury failed to find a
t true bill against him. We have heard
: no comments from our Democratic
, exchanges on this escape of an ac-
> knowledged blackmailer, but we trem.
o BILE when we think of the columns Of
q abuse the radical courts would have
received, had Dimmick been Repub
f lican instead of a Democrat. Mote;
and beams.
D The Clarion Democrat is under.
taking to run the Armstrong County
J. Democratic nominations. How it will
/ succeed is question for the future
t We don't believe, however that NOR,
e than seven-eighths of the Democrat
J. of Armstrong county take Brown
J. paper. He reserves abont two inches
J. of space in the last weeks paper t
o give Maclay left handed puff, whicl
is will probably result in making NOR
e votes for Mac. 1t would be a goot
y speculation if Maclay would pa,
Brown advertising rates to abuse hin
during the canvass.
" We wish to call attention to tn
) new advel tisement of E. A. Baldwin
- of Tidioute. Should any of our read
ers need anything in his line, we ca
conscientiously recommend them to 6
to Baldwin, feeling assured that h
y will do unto them as he would be don
!" by were he the blyer and they tn
9 sellers. If any one finds that he doe
p" not do just as he advertises, we vii
, take his advertisement out, and Civ
'' him a left handed puff. We don't an
. ticipate having those things to dc
- however.

$. feet in length, on Friday last, whic

On Sunday last we caused reptil
of the same species, three and one
