And now they say that Stenger is a can
didate for Congress, and so it goes. SHE
is, and he isn't is the way the Democracy
put it. His friends declare him to be a
Sfinger. Huntingdon Democrats claim to
have Champion to Speer him. The un-

The Altoona Tribune puts the case point

vote for Garfield.

American iire-water. Larger quantities of
whisky are now exported than
ever before flowed TO Europe. Indulgence
in such a stimulant will have a singular ef
