UNIONTOWN.

A NEW Presbyterian Church will like
ly be erected at the cross roads at the
junction of the lands of Mr.. Abner
Lodge and Mr.. James Bell. When the
mOneyed citizens of that locality "talk
up" new enterprise they mean busi-
ness. We understand that that contri-
buttons are freely offered.
THE WEDDING announced by your
East Richland correspondent took place
at the time stated, and was very pleas
ant affair to all concerned. We but ex-
press the sentiment of this community
when we say that Mr.. Merritt Lodge is
a young gentleman worthy of especial
honor. OF correct department., civil and
respectful to those with whom he is as
sociated, he has won for himself the re-
spect and good will of all our citizens.
He was our pupil in his early years, and
we have known him intimately since
that time, and have never known him to
be guilty of mean or dishonorable ac-
tion. He sowed no "wild oats" cOnse-
quently his friends will not have to eat
cheat when the harvest comes. We
speak more fully, knowing that he will
occupy prominent position. and when
his name is brought before the public
the citizens of our county can safely, by
their votes, elect him to offices of trust
and honor, Miss Alice King is a lady of
refinement and high mental accom-
plishments, and their many friends wish
that their lives may prove happy and
prosperous.
Mrs. NJ. A. BELL has, after a protract-
ed visit in the West, returned home, and
brings the good news that her brother,
Mr.. John Moore, who was so badly
crushed by the cars, will recover from
his injuries.
Mr.. WooDMANsEE has been purcha-
sing large quantities of hay in this
community. and we see his teams on the
road almost daily.
WRITING SCHOOLS had become obso-
lete in our vicinity, but now Mr.. Peter
Snedeker has consented to teach class
in the evenings, and as Mr.. S. is good
penman, we have no doubt but that a
class can easily be formed.
THE prophecy that this would prove
an open winter has been fulfilled to the
letter in this section of the universe.
First, the winter was open on top, then
open below, then open to remarks and
objections, and now it is open all round
with sunshine and "danelion blossoms"
and snakes and mosquitoes and toads
and blue bottles. Anybody can prophe-
sy what kird of winter this is. H.

what They Say OF Capt. Alexis
Cope for Secretary of State.

The name of Capt. Alexis Cope is be-
ing received by the press of the State
with very general favor as good candi-
date for Secretary of State. In referring
to his candidacy the Mt. Vernon Repub-
lican, whose editor knows whereof he
writes, says that he is gentleman
whose qualifications for this important
Office are unexcelled and whose civil,
military and political records are a suf-
ficent warrant for our bringing him for
ward at this time. In addition to Capt.
Cones excellent public record, upon
which there is not blot or stain, he is
a gentlemen of fine personal address, a
good speaker, and indefatigable worker
and highly valued citizen. He will go
into the field with strong backing from
Eastern Ohio where he is best known,
and also from the central and north
eastern sections Of the State. His nu-
merous friends throughout the State
will be awake to his interests and en-
deayor to secure his nomination by all
honorable means.
The Columbus Gazette says that Capt.
Cope is assuredly worthy of the 'nomina-
tion, and while we do not claim to be
in position to know what Capt. Cope's
aspirations are in this direction, we have
no hesitancy in asserting that his candi-
dacy will be looked upon with favor by
his many friends in Franklin county.
He has, by his urbanity of character,
won scores of friends in the exercise of
his office of Assistant Secretary, who
would be especially delighted to mani
fest their appreciation by casting their
votes for him in the coming State cam
paign.
The GAINESVILLE Enterprise says of his
candidacy that he is genial, popular and
able gentleman, and better candidate
could.not be selected He will receive
an an ardent support from the delegates
of this section.

was for him in 1876 and he has been
popular throughout the whole North
west ever since. Senator Allison, on the
other hand, says both Blaine and Grant
are very popular there, and he finds it
hard to tell which is the favorite. The
Iowa Congressman agree that both can
didates are popular, but that Blaine is a
little ahead of Grant.

some indications of the sort in this 10
