For The TIMES.
The temperance Reform.

There are in every neighborhood good chris
tian people, leaders of society, patterns OF pro-
priety, and to whom the people look for the
advancement of education, morality and reig-
ion To these persons we would address few
kind words. Next to the Church the Tenn
perance meetings are the most important and
useful In training the young in the way they
should go. No person is too good to take
part In them, and until the churches make it q
subject of preaching and prayer, the temper
ance meetings will be necessary. If you wait
until the people all ask for meeting, that time
will never come for the Evil One Is working
all the time, privately, and we must fight him
publicly or not at all. We must educate the
people before they will feel right on this ques-
tion. A volcano may be quiet for years, and
then without warning, burst forth In ali its
fury but people are not volcanoes. Did you
ever know of church revival without the
church members organized the meeting, and
made an effort to interest the peoplel Just SO
is this case, you don't know what strong
temperance sympathy is lying dormant among
your people until you try to arouse 1t. If you
walt for grand beginnings you will always
wait. Two or three earnest souls In town
ship or village can kinde fire that will arouse
all the dormant. Brother, If upon you de-
wolves the responsibility of forming temper
ance society, don't wait for better times, don't
wait for some one to get excited. Go to work
now announce your meeting, procure an
earnest sober speaker trust in God, pray for
grace and help, and though slow may be the
progress, sure will be your reward. There are
to-day in Perry county several good working
Unions which started with very inauspcious
prospects, but they have done great good,
and helped the revivals in the churches. The
full benefit will never be revealed until the
resurrection day, and not until that day will
the workers be rewarded. This week we have
helped to organize the Fairview Union in
Oliver township, with Mr.. John Mitchell,
President; and we expect great results there
from. The Methodist church In Newport
which has taken very active part in temper
ance reform, is now enjoying great revival
and have had forty conversions, while almost
every meeting brings out more anxious ones.
God will bless the temperance churches, and
we pray daily that His grace will so enllven
the members that they will soon all be temper
ance churches, and then Satan will soon lose
his moral support, and be forced to wage his
warfare under his true colors. Dear temper
ance friends, let us work with will, with
faith, and with love to all. When you need
help let me know and If possible will be with
you. MILTON B. EsHLEMAN

Two Sudden Deaths. On Sunday week
Mr.. Henry Long and his family, came
to visit his brother Darius, in Centre
township. In the evening after running
around apparently in good health, he
had an attack of Strangulsted hernia
Doctors Striclzler, Hook and Conrad,
were called in and performed an opera
tion, but after terrible suffering until
Monday noon, he was released by death.
The deceased was an estimable citizen of
Saville township.
On Tuesday morning the citizens of
this borough were shocked to hear that
the body of Miss Ida Abrams would be
brought home that day. She had been
on visit for several weeks among her
friends in Maryland, and was expected
to return home very shortly. Notice of
her death had not been preceded by any
intimation of her illness, and conse.
quently the shock was the greater. Her
death occurred in Baltimore, where she
had stopped to visit some relatives
Miss Ida was daughter of Mr.. Joseph
Abrams, aformer merchant of this bor-
ough, and was young lady who was
esteemed by all who knew her. The
family have the sympathy of the en-
tire community in this sad and sudden
affliction

OF Interest to Supervisors Judge
Futhey, of Chester county, in his charge
to the grand jury, last week, made some
points which are of Importance to town.
ship supervisors. He alluded to the fact
that there are many places in the public
roads and at bridges, where, on dark
night serious accidents might occur. He
says that there is no doubt that the su-
pervisors of the townships in which
such accidents may occur can be held
responsible therefor, and he drew atten-
ton to the case recently tried ia the
court of which he presides, in which
the township of Schuylkill was held liza
ble in heavy damages in suit brought
against it by the widow of Charles
Crossman.

GALUsHA \. GROW opened the Re
publican campaign IN this state GROW
is a standing campaign opener 10y a
speech in Pittsburg on last Saturday
night, and what he said is reported in the
Dispatch and other Republican papers
of that city. He told his hearers about
Garfield having been "a child of penury
and toil''-how, ''in early manhood, :"
which is the common lot of humanity,
he had .'to earn his own daily bread by
his daily toll, = and some other things Of
similar import but somehow or other
the great Republican campaign opener
forgot to explain to his audience how il
came to pass that after Garfield had re-
signed his commission in the army for
the more comfortable berth of a seat in
Congress, he consented to take and did
take from Oales Ames a thousand dol
lar Credit Mobilier bond, as reported to
the House i'll February, 1878, by a Re
publican committee, of which Luke p.
Poland was chairman or how, as was
reported to the House by another COM
mittee and admitted by Garfield himself
under oath, he took s., 600 from pave
meut company for using his influence as
chairman of the appropriation commit
tee in procuring a contract for the com
pany with Boss Shepherd for paving the
streets of Washington, the money to
pay for which must be appropriated by
his own committee. Grow was as dumb
as an oyster about these two trifling in
cidents in Garfeld's Congressional ca
reer, and thought it more important and
interesting to tell the meeting how Gar
field had once showed a carpenters plane
and driven a team of mules on the tow
path of a raging canawl." Grow made
speeches for Horace Greeley in the cam
paign of 1872, and as Greeley was an hon
est man. loved honesty in others and
despised cant and Hypocrisy, lie would
have done better for Garfield if he was
living and had been put in Grows place.

If we could sell a little
more of this and a little less
Of that, we could make
things come out even-tle
last man that came in would
carry off the last suit; but
we can't. Out of every
stock there are a great many
sizes left when some are
gone. The best we can do
with these incomplete assert
ments is to mark them low
enough to set a great many
people looking among them
for bargains.
This we do every day at
this time Of year and Just
now we have enough Of
such to stock a little store
Besides, odd parts of suits
get left-COats, vests and
trousers. We have a room
in which there IS nothing
else. There IS in that room
cheaper clothing than yog
have any notion of We call
it the Bargain-Room.
These marked-dOWn suits
and garments are OF all
sorts; they may be among
the best in the store.
We force a continual clear
ance of such articles as
would only embarrass u.s.
and keep our stocks always
fresh and full.
