William Gibson, resident of
Little Britain township, Lancaster
county, was found dead, hanging in
his barn. AS he had been subject to
fits of melancholy, it is supposed the
rash act was committed while he la
bored under an attack. He was fifty
five years old.
"A son of Nathan Patten, of N Neshan-
mock township, Lawrence county, was
seriously wounded by the accidental
discharge of his gun while climbing
fence on Tuesday. The gun was loaded
with shot and slugs, and the whole dis
charge was emptied into his right side,
inflicting a frightful wound, which
will probably prove fatal.

Processing to be an honest man, the
candidate of an honest organization 1
favor honest money.
The volume of the currency should
be regulated by legitimate demand,
and not by the requirements of bank
rupts and wild spectators.
The currency should be redeemable
as early as the exigencies of the Gov

recognized by all civilized nations.
The contracts of the Government
should be held as sacred as the con-
tracts of individuals. and the bonds,

be paid according to the understand
ing between the Government and the
lender.-[Speech at Butler, Sept. 2,

The indianapolis Journal says: We
say the Republicans of Indiana can
Beat the combined forces of the Dem.
ocrats and Nationals this year. They
not only can, but will. They would
do it if the election would take place
tomorrow, and they will do it far more
certainly in October. Every day that
passes the Democratic party in Indiana
is becoming more demoralized, and the
National party is losing strength.
Every day that passes the Republican
party is gaining ground and votes. 1t
has not been in as good shape for many
years past as it is to-day in respect of
organization, effectiveness of party
machinery, and harmony and hope
tnlness of feeling.

Our Nominations.

To-day we place the county ticket at
the head of this column, and will say
a.few words as to the candidates:
E. NJ. GRANT,
for State Senator, was placed in nom-
ination by unanimous vote Of the
Conferees who met at this place last
week Tuesday. He is resident of
Foxburg, Clarion county, and is very
popular at home. An uncompromising
Republican, and young man of good
business qualifications, he comes be-
fore the people, fresh from the people.
and, with all his elements of success,
is formidable candidate. By strict
attention to his own business, while
yet young man, he has amassed
considerable fortune. A gentleman of
pleasing address and good record, he
will undoubtedly poll large vote.
w. w. AMES,
for Representative, is popular young
lawyer of st. Mary's, where he has
been engaged in business for several
years He is at present a member of
the Town Council, a fact which at
tests to his popularity. His character
for honesty is good, and with the vote
he is bound to get in the borough of
st. Mary's and Benzinger township,
his chances for election seem good.
A. E. GOFF,
for Treasurer, is farmer and an old
resident of the county, and has host
of friends. For integrity, honesty and
ability, he stands the peer of any can
didate in the field.
w. H. OsTERHOUT and S. w. MOVER,
for Commissioners, the one tanner,
the other farmer. Mr.. Osterhout has
filled the office of Commissioner ac-
ceptably for three years, and is SO well
acquainted with the people of the
county that no word of commentator
is needed from us. A man whose word
is as good as his bond, and who keeps
every business engagement with strict
punctuality, whose open-handed char
ity is proverbial, the interests of the
county will be safe in his hands. Mr..
Meyer is an old resident, and would
fill the position with ability and
fidelity.
THOMAS IRWIN,
of Spring Creek, and
J. ]. TAYLOR,
of Fox, fer County Auditors, are both
well known to our readers, and will, if
elected, be efficient officers.

EMPLOYMENT FOR LADIES AND G EN-
TLEMEN AT HOME.

Our attention was recently attracted by
an advertisement in another paper to the
"American Housekeepers' Scale and the
extremely low price induced us to send for
one to use in our kitchen.
We find the scale the most convenient and
valuable household article we have! 1t is
worth FIVE times its cost, in testing grocers'
packages, putting up preserves, making
cake etc. W. H. Thompson & Co., No.
235 Washington street, Boston, Mass, are
the manufacturers, and they have the most
complimentary Testimonials of the Scale
possible to be written. They have as yet
no General Agent for this County and as
the Scales are sold exclusively by canvass
ers to families. we cheerfully recommend
the article for the benefit of our numerous
lady readers, and parties wanting honor
able employment.
We would say that the " Church Journal"
N. Y, "Christian Union," N. Y, "Frank
Lesles Illustrated Newspaper" New York,
"Church Union," N. Y. Boston "Traveler"
{. Heraldn and Post" and hundreds of
other papers, all speak in the highest praise
of the Scale, its low price, and convenience
to housekeepers.
Weighs up to "a pounds, and costs $3.50
prepaid--or about one-half that of any
other Platform Scale in the United States.
Where is the man who wants the exolu.
sive control of our County, and thereby Sc
cure very profitable business?
