80 ELECTORS.

There are taoenty.nine names on the
Electoral ticket. Let each Republican
voter see that that number of names
are on his Electoral ticket before vot-
ing it. And let him scan over the
names and see that they are the same
names as printed in our paper this
week. We give this caution in order
that there may be no fraud practiced in
this county next Tuesday. Very little
attention is generally paid to the names
of the Electors. But they represent
the Presidential candidates, and the
omission of one name, or q spurious
name inserted in the list of Electors,
would be just that much of a loss to
Garfield and Arthur Greater care is
perhaps required in this matter than at
any previous election. George W.
Delamater is the name of the Republi-
can Elector on tie ticket for this dis
trict.

DEATH OF A GOOD WOMAN.

All of this county-and they are
many-who were acquainted with
Mrs. Mary NJ. Marshall, wife of Hon
Thomas VI. Marshall, of Pittsburgh,
are exceedingly sorry to learn of her
death, which happened on the goth

estimable women that it was always Il
pleasure to meet. With her husband
she made frequent visits to this place
within the few past years, and made
many friends by her agreeable and So

THE epizootic, or horse disease, seems
to be again working itself this way
and horses hereabouts may not escape.
1t seems to be in a milder form than
before. but owners of horses should
prepare for it by giving their animals
good care and avoiding exposure as
much as possible.

A Rig Success.

'My wife had been ailing long time with
dyspepsia and nervousness and was in bed two
years with a complication of disorders her ply
Sicians could not cure, when | was led by read
ing circular left at my door to try Parker's
Ginger Tonic. Having been so often deceived
by worthless mixtures, nothing but my wife's
dangerous condition could have led us to make
any more experiments. But it was big sue

dollar and fifty cents, and she is strong
as any woman, ana regularly does her house

In answer to friend we would say
that Messrs. Braham and Bell, our
candidates for the Assembly, will both
receive the united vote of the party
next Tuesday. They are both good
men and deserve the full, square vote
of all Republicans, and SO far as we
know each will receive it. We advise
the earnest support of both and hope
for their election.

BEWARE of apathy 1t is more to be
dreaded now than the Democratic par
ty. The Cincinnati Gazette directs at
tention to the fact that in states where
the test is made in October, the vote is
apt to fall off in November. 1t adds,
by way of warning as to Ohio in 1876:
Rep. Dem.
Secretary of state in October. .317 ,S56 81, ,22O
President in 1876..-............297,8 ,817 292, ,273
Falling goff..............-..... 2o,O39 1s,947
The Republican vote fell off, it is
seen, 1902 more than the Democrats.
The Republican majority for Secretary
of State was 6,636, and for President
5,444. Had the Democrats known
their power, as Tilden expressed it a
few days since, they might have car
ried Ohio fo- President in 1876. These
facts are suggestive.

We have thus been particular in or
der that all voters may understand how
to make up their tickets. AT the polls
of this election our Republican voters
will observe that the estate" officers,
the Electors and Auditor General, are
printed alone on one sheet Of paper,
and that the other two, Judiciary"
and County" are printed on another
sheet. By separating these last two
the voter will have the three distinct
and separate tickets that he votes, to
wit: the State in one, the Judiciary in
one and the County in one.
