Is some parts o. thIs state. especially
in strong RapublicaI counties like
Chester, the organs OF the party that de-
cIarej Itself at The Harrisburg State
convention opposed to ''honest men in
office. &c have discovered that the ,.O'' in
Daniel %. Barr's name stands for
.'O'Couucu." ." and take great pains To
impress that fact upon the minds Of
their readers. 1t is reminder that nr
Barr is Of Irish parcntagc, and is a
cropping out NJ the Odi0us and detested
spirit Of The old Know Nothing party.
Jhcir1wn candidate IS hardly descend
eat of the "igh.iug Butlers' OF revolu-
tjougrJ days. who were true types OF the
genuine IrishWau. Daniel C-ConneI
was pure patriot, and spent the best
part of his life in the cause Of his Coun-
try. which he loved so well. No irish
man, or the son Of an Irishmau. need be
ashamed CT the name Of Daniel O'Con-
nell, but as proud Of it rs an American
Democratic boy is to be named after
Andrew Jackson-glorious '-old Hicko-
ry - himself tho son Of al Irish man.
The effort to create prejudice against
Mr.. Barr because OF his name and the
Eace from which he sprung viii prove to
he failure, IS every such low attempt
10 iniura man whose reputation in
every way is pure and iuvulnerabIe. has
always Geserredly proved to be with
men Of decency and common Eense.

CAPTURED RY CASTER.
A Negro Charged Win Forging mr.. Chas.
II. J8hnsan's Name

Yesterday morning Special Caster and bank
detective Mike Farrell arrested a negro named
Robert Armstrong and locked him up In the
Central Station. on the charge Of uttering as
true a forged check for the sum CT sl15 and at
tempting to collect the same.
1t appears Special Caster was at 10 o'clock
Yesterday morning standing In the Canal
Bank when the negro Armstrong entered. and /,
approaching the paying teller des k pres ented
Il check for $115 purporting to have been signed
by Mr.. Charles +. Johnson. AS soon as the pay.
ing teller glanced at the check he recogniz lied
the signature TO be a forgery. and called on
Special Caster to take charge OF the negro,
WI ich he did.
The negro, together with the check. was taken
before Mr. Johnson, who pronounced the sig
nature Il forgery.
II appears that Armstrong has been a porter
In Mr.. Johnson's office for nearly year. and
has up to this time been considered an honest
and industrious man.
While Armstrong was being questioned Spe-
cial Caster noticed negro woman standing In
front of Mr.. Johnsons office. beck oning Arm
strong to come TO her. They also placed the
woman under arrest. VIII questioned she
said that Armstrong and herself We're to be
married; that on Monday they had bought a
sat Of furniture for 500, and Armstrong told
her to come to the Office. and he would give her
the money to by for the furniture. The wo-
man. after making this statement. was set al
| liberty.
Armstrong said that white man gave him
the check, and told him to go into the bank
| That's all he knew about Ii.
