COMMUNICATION.

Editor Sentinel and Republican - Sir,
Vow that the election is past. and We can
take a cain view OF some OF the means
used 20 secure votes, we are astonished.
A case in point is the late Republican candi-
date for County Treasurer. Some of the
opposition repor: thai he was not running,
and that the leading Republicans would not
supper; him, on account OF iaiiing he has
which renders him incompetent to fiji the
office. Now, we claim to know Jacob Lem
m. We have known him ior thirty years,
and we know he has been heavy taxpayer
for that length of time, and has never been
even a tax-collcctor. We know, too, that
IN 1867, after our sad defeat at Bull Kun,
he left a happy, loving family and a good,
comfortable home, and volunteered as a
urisate for the term of three years in the
service O. his country, when he was not
subi,ct to draft. We know him 10 be very
strict in keeping his word, considering 1t at
all times as good as his bond. He never
uses vulgar or profane language, aud is
kind and obliging neighbor. We also know
something of his religious views; he con-
stantly tries to keep the commandments,
takes The New Testament for his preacher,
and very seldom attends church.
Now about this failing, spoken of. The
party circulating this precious discovery
was very careful to impress upon the minds
of his hearers that Lemon was nothing more
than a common drunkard. Lemon told NE
that he has used liquor occasionally Tor
forty wears. sometimes none FOR length OF
time. and sometimes too much, but always
intending 10 quit the use of strong drink at
SONG time. On the 3lst of August, 1871,
wh,c, was his birthday, he formed resolu-
t;op to leave oil the use OF all kinds o'
stimulating drinks for the reminder "f NE,
and, am glad to say, he has KEPT that res
oiutlon. and hope he my continue to KEEP
it. You may have AN idea as to what kinn
of mind an undertaking OF that klnd re-

Ten women, with infants in their arms,
attended the recent sitting of the Cambria
court, and this one circumstance impresses
that everlasting joker, McPike, with new
courthouse ideas. The squalling of the
babes in concert sadly disturbed the slum-
bsrs OF justice.
The above is from the Altoona Tribune,
to which may be said that if the Tribune
people aud McPike had attended court here
in Mifiiintown, last week, they might have
seen better than that, Tor there was ore wo-
man present who had two babies in her
arms.
