The Herald assures MS That we are not
the man the Democracy is looking for to Fl u
the Cifce of County Treasurer, and the Her-
did may be right, though il would have been
more 10 the DurpOse If il had said so before
we announced our intention to eight il ont
on that line il II took us all summer" Now
we are in for it, however, and can't Well
back out, but If we knew that the Herald
man intended to nip our aspirations SO cru
ely in the had we wOuld have looked more
carefully before we leBped into the treasury

The Johnsjown Democrat, without any
references 10 the BolCery subject treated else
where, says it is all very well to talk about
; economy, but the difficulty is to get any
I thing to CcunOuise. If you are really in
earnest and wish to ccOuDmise, however
you will huy your clothing, hats. caps, gents
/ furnishing goods, etc, from Mr.. James j. .
Murphy, nj the Star Hall Clothing Store on
Clinton street, Juhustowu where the cheap
: est, best and most desirable goods can al
1 ways lie found. BY following this advice
you can economise 10 your great advantage,
and that too without drpriviug yourself of
any of the comforts of life.
