In speaking of the recent turn
pike fight below the Narrows, the
Republicon calls us the steady going
Dutch Of Penns Valley. Now we
know of but a single family in all
Penns Valley, of Dutch ancestry. If
Tuten knows no better than he talks,
we cordially invite him to come down
here among us, Ignorant, benighted
and heathenlsh" people, as he is so
fond to call us, under the thin guise
of political hatred, and take course
in Geography and History, the COM
ing winter. ~.
We will see to it that our school
board admits him into the "Prima-

age for auqht we know, and for his
board he could do the feeding for
some farmer. Mr.. Gray could easi-
ly spare Edward, the latter would
acquire some valuable knowledge,
and we would be spared the trouble
of going for Tuten as often as we
otherwise must. Great good would
be effected AL round.

"TOO BAD"

While attending a funeral on the
Cemetery, the other Sunday, we were
panied to see the neglected condition
of our "citY of the dead" One must
wade through tall grass, the growth
and decay of years, be careful not to
stumble over large stone heaps or
get entangIed in brush. 1t IS no
honor to us as community to show
so little respect for the spot where so
many of our departed friends sleep
their long sleep-a place that ought
to be sacred to us all. 1t ought not
SO to be. IL any one place should be
kept neat and clean above others, it
is the village graveyard.
We remind the Trustees, Messrs.
w. X. Alexander, IL. II. Weiser
and VIM. Kerstetter, of their duty
to lead in this matter. 1t will not
do to confess our faults only but to
mend them. Let us hear from you,
gentlemen. We Onght to clean and
trim up our Cemetery, or else we
should be ashamed of our heathenish
indifference. Or does it really make
no difference whether we do either9

A Big BILL.-Speaking about the
destruction accomplished by the
rioters, ,'the, Pittsburg Leader says:
at il thought that Allegheny coun-
ty must shoulder the loss caused by
the destruction of property about the
railroad. If so, it will be burden
that the tax payers can hardly carry
For..inStance, 1.-The total taxables in
the county are SO $50. Now. if we
put the damage done at SIC, 900, 1000
asfiguresthat. it'can't go over and it
will perhaps be not more tlran half
of that-each of those IS, $50 taxables
will have to {pay one hundred and
thirteen.odd dollars. 1t is doubtful
whether this can be. collected-very
doubtful. Supposing then it should
be made a.tax on property, it would
be as follows: The total valuation of
the county is $2444, 705, 6iS. and hence
IL tax of abeut-fear per cent. would
have to be levied.. Thus a man who
owned $1,000 pieeesOf property would
have topay 5000. $50 the case stands.

GREAT LIVING ISSUES.

Never before have the State cleo
tions in the first year Of u new presi
dental term turned upon issues of
such novelty, such magnitude, and
such vital importance as those which
are to be decided at the polls in the
coming autumn. u.
With propriety which seems al
most providential, the keynote of the
autumn elections in all the States is
pitched in Ohio, the. State which
furnished the country with the
Fraudulent President and with some
of the chief conSpilatorS and agents
through whose action he was put in
to office.
The new issues brought so the
front in Ohio are two, and each of
them is oftranseeadent consequence.
They are conceived by the Repuhli-
cans of that State briefly as follows !:
/. The Electoral Conspiracy and
the Fraud through which the man
who was rightfully elected President
was deprived of the office while it
was conferred upon the man whom
the people had reiected-thiS Con-
spiracy and this Fraud shall not on
ly be condoned and forgiven, but
positively approved and glonIied.
ii. The American political and
social svstenl, whose cornerstone IS
liberty, and whose manifestations Is
the freedom of individual and aSSo-
ciate action without government In
reference, : shonld- be suppressed; !;
and i'm it'd place there should he es-
tablished centralized government
interfering in everything; with q
CommuniStie sEsteIn uf business and
labor in, which the Government
should own or controlall great in
dustrial undertakings, regulate the
rates of wages, and direct and su-
pervise all social relations generally.
These are the issues. which the Re-
publican party in Ohio has now
raised. They are defined with the
greatest distinctneSs in the plat
form of the party andin the speeches
of its candidate for Governor. They
are new and startling, but they agree
well with each other. National
Fraud as the means of making Presi-
dents, and Communism. as the means
of regulating property, labor, and
society, form a coherent and harmo-
niouS body of political doetrine. If
the people like them, they will ap-
prove of them, and vote for the can
didateS who represent them. If
they do not like them, they will re-
ject at once-t tire doctrines and the
canditateS.-N. Y. Sun.
