HOLD ON.


The editor of the ,oorld is evidently
getting uneasy. He breaks out in his
last issue in this way
Ifthat long threatened "exposure must come,
itmay as well come now as at any other time.
Why doesn't the REPUBLICAN "cut loose" aud
make a clean thing of itY These Is one thing,
however, We would ask him TO satisfactorily OK
plain. II be holds any important secrets Of the
Order, did be obtain them by committing perjury
or did he pay his hundred dollars" to a perjured
tool to get the information
To crafty your ,nta.red inquisitive-
ness, we will remark that we never
belonged to any oath-bound, political
organization. More; Since we init
mated that we might spend n hundred
dollars foolishly, for Il revelation of the
workings of the '76ers, we have had
plenty of applications. One member,
in good standing, offered to elbow" for
ten dollars but knowing his habits, and
he being the father of five children, we
refused his offer, fearing that he would
take the money, get drunk with it, and
90 home and abuse his family. An
other number ono standby (on the
corner) offered to "show up the organ.
zation" for five dollars. We also re.
fused his offer; because we were in
possession of everything for nothing,
We employ none but volunteers in our
warfare upon personal wrongs. Be
sides, we are well aware that the dog
days will wind up the '76ers. More
than that, we cannot be persuaded tc
contribute to the support of the enemies
of liberty and political mendicants, ex
cept through the legal channel--th'
Overseers of the Poor. Is that "satis
factorily ~.
Again: In year from this date
neither the 76ers nor the lcorld will b.
in running order, unless new hand
take charge of affairs. We are NJ
prophet, but just bear that in pinc
when you hurl brick-bats at those witt
have just asmuch right to live in thi
county as you have, Mr.. Snob.

publican until three o'clock, when the
bank officials had had time to fully ex-
anime their affairs. The saving bank
people, on the floor above, wish il un-
derstood that their securities can be in
no way affected, as their vault is en-
iirely separated from that Of the Ma
tional Bank Upon the depositors in
Northampton and the whole region,
who had trusted that safe above all
others the loss will be ecrushing. What
with bad tobacco years and the hard
times, the calamity ranks almost with
the heaviest Of our disasters of fire and
flood.
At the latest advices no word had
been received from the robbers, who
have proved their position in the bust
ness above cavil. Special Policeman
Kingsley, who was on duty at our
depot, saw three men get off from the
early northern train and hastily en-
bark to Boston, whom he now thinks
were "mspicious.' 0lcourse dispatches
were sent 10 all the cities yesterday
giving particulars of the affair, and o
squad Of the State detective have been
summoned. The big reward will draw
the best detective skill OF the country
TO Northampton. 1t was notable that
there were few plausible theories as to
who the robbers might be- One sug.

IGNORANCE OR KNA VERY

"Wherc ignorance is bliss, It's folly
TO be WISE" Is an old aphorism. The
editor Of the Osccola Iqorid seems "a
have fallen heir to this csiatc. In al-
luding to the organization Of Pine dis
trct In his last issue, he says
But as an Offset to their political dsadvantsges
they have no-sohccls to support--no school tax
to pay--and the virgin pine forests, owned by
corporate combinations of capital, are also OK
empt from taxation for school purposes. The
people Of this county should he thaskiul for the
innuence Of their legislators, and the money ei
Phelps and Dodge used In "seitlng up" this
grand dodge 10 evade taxation.
There is not single iota Of truth
in the above paragraph. In proof Of
what we say, in relation to taxes, we
need but refer our readers 30 the Coun-
ty Auditors report, found in this issue.
Look for Pine School District, and see
if the lands are not taxed rs elsewhere.
More; Phelps 4 Dodgr never owned
an acre Of land in that locality. The
editor of tho icord, IN the above para
graph, intimates that il is wrong for
persons md property to escape taxa
ton. No one will dispute that point
yet he has escaped that penalty, and
now turns around and upbraids his

A CONTRAST.

The Radical leaders in this county
are constantly advising economy Ia
public expenditure. This is right but
they should have their friends practice
what thcy preach.
To show that they arc hypocrites,
we need but refer our readers to a sim
gle item. In the neighboring county
of Indiana, which gives 1000 Radical
majority, and hold no more courts than
we do in Clcarfold, the Auditors re-
port shows that the County Commits
sioncrs charged the taxpayers of that
county sl,ss2 for their last years
services, being an average Of s627.50
for each member of the board. Indi-
ana Is u model county. 1t is where
General Harry White resides, who
spent season in Libby prison, because
he Supposed his life was in less jeopardy
there than in racing up and down the
Shenandoah Valley. with "Stoncwall" I"
Jackson on his flank, or in his rear,
and since then holding from two to
three offices al q time. In that loyal
county, if n County Commissioner gets
away with s627.50 n year it seems to
be considered all right while here in
Clearfeld, it costs the taxpayers only
s29O.5O.-a little over onc-third of what
they charge over in Indiana county
for similar services.
Why, if Messrs. Thompson, Brown
and Kylcr would have charged a simi-
lar bill these panic times, every Radi-
cal leader in this county would have
stood on his head and sworn that they
attempted to steal the Court House
and that the Clerk had run off with
the prison. Commissioners wages in
Indiana county for 1875, sl,sS2 in
Clearfeld county for same year, ss72.
Taxpayer, do You see the extra thou
sand the RAIDS got away with over
there? What a huge theft similar
transaction would have been over here
in Clearfeldl But over there it is all
right ; for the grabbers are all third
termers.
