The Railroad North.

Yesterday Judge O'Rear and sew
eral other gentlemen residing near
Longwood were in the city to confer
with the Sedalia committee in refer
ence TO the building of the railroad
north to connect with the Chicago &
Alton road. The gentlemen were
most enthusiastic ia their advocacy of
the enterprise, and said that the peo-
pie residing in that vicinity were ali
az the same opinion.
II seems that Mr.. Pollock, who had
been selected to make the survey to
the county line, had given up the
job, and Mr.. w. II. Kerr was en-
pIoved to perform the work. He will,
next Wednesday 60 over the proposed

The Cambria freeman. [volume] (Ebensburg, Pa.) 1867-1938, 1880-05-07

TIE Republicans of Somerset county
who are opposed to the snap Judgment
of Don Cameron's Harrisburg g conven-
tion in electing Grant delegates to Chi
cago. held / large meeting at the County
Seat on Tuesday OF last week. General
VIM. II. Koontz, ran the machine in a
most vigorous style agains- the unit rule,
making q lengthy speech condemuing it
and advocating the nomination Of Nj
Blaine. Other rebellious Republicans,
Col. John r. EGie being among the num-
Der, addr5 sseI the meeting in a similar
strain, and H. c. Mckinley, Col. II b.
Barnes, and w. B. FTease, were arpoiu-
ted conferees to meet conferees from
Bedford, Blair and Cambria counties,
to nominate two Blaine delegates to
Chicago, instead Of CamerOn's hench-
men, John Cessna, OF Bedford and Dav-
III Over, Of Blair. The chairman OF the
Republican Committee OF Bedford c0uu-
ty has, as = result, issued a call Tor the
election Of delegates and the appoint
ment Of conferees in the interest Of
Blaine, on the 2jth Of this month. We
cannot OF course, say what the Blaine
men in Blair county, or the Blaine men
in Cambria propose to- do about the mat
ter. DAME! J. Morrall, the most prom
inent and widely known Republican in
this county, has stated publicly that he
is opposed TO Grants preteusions and
that he wants Blaine nominated. but
Mr.. MorreIl of late years has not taken
much part in the movements of his par
y in this county, and probably will not
do so in the present Republican revolt in
the district. The editor OF the Johns
town Tribune, on the other hand, viii
be sure TO oppose the Blaine men il they
attempt TO show their hand, aud will
stand by Cessna and Over to the bitter
end, believing as he seems TO do that
without Grant the country Will go
straight 10 destruction, and for the adj
ditionai reason that in referring some
time ago TO The steps taken by the Re
puJlicans Of Lancaster county to send
two Blaine delegates to Chicago, he said
they would have happy time getting
their scdtsin the Convention, or words
TO that effect.
