The Forest Republican. [volume] (Tionesta, Pa.) 1869-1952, 1876-08-16

Derrick OF this morning, we learn That
a young man named Gallager, Of
Murrinsville, while driving a young
horse in a carriage, was ran away
with, thrown out and killed instantly.
1t is rumored that a terrible
battle has taken place between Gen
eral Crooks forces and the Sioux, and
that the Indians have been almost an
initiated. The news came through
Indian sources, and it is to be hoped
is correct.
The stave mill is out of bolts
again, notwithstanding the fact that
the proprietors pay cash for them, and
everybody needs cash so badly. They
will run raft or two down the creek
presently, which will keep them going
for awhile.
Congress finally adjourned yester-
day. The appropriation bills have
all been passed, and approved by the
President. When the Congressman
and Senators all get home, we suppose
the political cauldron will begin to
boil.
Attention is called to the new
advertisement of ]. H. Derickson &
Co., which appears in this issue. They
have moved their store in the Acomb
building, and will hereafter keep
open until 8 o'clock in the evening.
They sell for cash, and consequently
can afford to sell close.
Mr.. S. ]. Setley, Treasurer of
Forest county, departed on Monday
last for New York, on business. While
in that vicinity, he will, in all proba-
bility, take few days to look in at
the Centennial exhibition. He will
be absent about ten days.
Some enterprising stationery firm
have gotten out pencil which they
call the democratic Pencil" 1t is
hard at one end, and soft at the other.
We might have overlooked this item,
had not our attention been called to
it by a Democrat, who does not want
Democratic campaign ideas slighted.
Several ofour former citizens are
over at or about Edenburg, engaged
in every kind of business which is
down there, and more have got the
fever, badly, and will probably land
there. If they do we'll, We shall be
pleased, but if what little they have
is put down into the cold, cold,
ground, we shall pity them sincerely.
John Reck and CAPT. Knox are
about to have we'll put down near
Jamieson's. Mr.. Grubbs, who has
drilled several water wells on Dutch
Hill is to do the work, which will
commence shortly. This territory is
good for wells of some size every time.
1t is to be hoped that this one Will be
a gusher.
Judging from the way smoke
rolled from the chimneys of the Amer
lean Oil Works, and from the way
barrels of oil were being shipped on
the river there, yesterday, business
there must be pretty brisk.-Pitts-
burgh Dispatch.
Governor Hendricks is in guam
dary.. He has been called upon for
troops to suppress the riotous railroad
strikers in Indiana, and whether he
sends the militia or not, he is sure to
make enemies by it.
