COUNTY TREASURER.

Editor Sentinel and Republican Sir, 1t is
a well recognized fact everywhere that the
Office Of County Treasurer is an important
office. Juniata county cannot be an excep-
tion, for there are no exceptions. On two
occasions in the past, Mr.. Jacob Lemon, OF
Patterson, came within few votes of be-
ing elected TO office. He is not among the
class denominated as " office-seekers. %
His friends desire that he again be placed
as candidate for the nomination of County
Treasurer, at the Republican Primary elec-
ton to be held Saturday, September oath
inst, believing that if he again becomes the
standard bearer, he will be elected by the
people at the general election in November.

Editor Sentinel and Repu6iiean-Dear Sir,
As the rules of our party require candidates
to be announced and voted for at our Pri-
mary Election, allow US TO name Hon. B. F.
Junkin as candidate for President Judge.
He has been an able and impartial Judge,
and as Perry county las declared over
whelmingly for him Juniata will be almost
sure to record her vote the same way. His
denomination and election will give us a
Judge second TO none in the State, aud one
who can in his official capacity afford to do
only what is just and right. The hope of
the country and its main stay is an unbiased
and incorruptible Judiciary. If nominated
there is no doubt of his election.

There was no relapse on Saturday,
but on Sunday his pulse beat higher,
and cough distressed him some

sylvan:a Railroad Company, which
rendered such signal service yester-
day, did SO purely as labor of that
same love that has been so over
whelmingly evidenced toward the
President No charge is to be made
by the company for the car that was
constructed, or for the train and en-
CINE furnished, or for the losses en-
tailed by the partial suspension of
business between Washington and
New York in consequence of the
Presidents removal to Long Branch,
which was regarded by the company
as a public matter of the highest
national importance. Vice President
Cassatt, who had entire supervision
of the journey so far as the railroad
was concerned, took as deep a per-
sonal interest in the affair as if the
life of a member of his own family
depended upon ii, and this feeling
was fully shared by the whole com
PAM, from President Roberts down.

THE Republican State Convention
had scarcely competed its nomina
ton OF General Bailey for State
Treasurer, till Charles S. Wolfe, oi
Lewisburg, Union county, announced
himself as an independent candidate
in the following card:
To the Editor Of the Tunes: The black
dag has been raised against the independent
Republicans of Pennsylvania Please an
nounce that on my own responsibility | an
an independent Republican candidate fol
State Treasurer, in full sympathy with the
Administration and against the rule of the
bosses. will stump the State and give my
reasons for this action.
CHARLES s. WOLFE.
LEwIsBuRG. Pa, Sept. g.
Mr. Bailey was nominated by a fan
contest over Mr.. Davies as competi
tor, and it cannot be urged against
the nominee that be employed sharp
or unfair tactics to secure his nomi-
nation. As far as can be ascertained
at this writing Wolfe's objection to
Bailey is because of the men that
have been putting him forward.
Whether the fact that Senator Cam
eron and his friends favored Bailey
is sufficient cause for the course OF
Wolfe is a question that will be con-
sidered between this time and cleo
ton day by Republican voters.
Mr.. Wolfe became quite famous
two winters ago when the effort was
made to pass the bill of S4,0OO.OOO
to pay the Pittsburg riot damages.
If he had then been placed before
the people of the Commonwealth for
an elective Office, a very large vote
would have been polled for him, for
the very large majority of the people
of the State were opposed to the
passage of the riot damage act, not
because the people dislike Pitisburg,
or other places, or any corporation or
company that suffered by riotous act.
but because they believe that it is
fundamentally wrong for State to
pay money damage for the riot acts
of bad men. If Wolfe still retains
the favor of the people that gave him
their moral support when be battled
IN the Legislature against the 81
0O0,0O0 Riot Damage Act. he will be
a dangerous element as an indepen-
dent candidate. II he has forfeited
