Making Watches.

Defective Watch Cases are one of the chief
causes of so many watches not being good
time pieces. The cases being thin and not fit
ting well, admit dust and dirt to the move
ment which soon interferes with the running
parts of the watch necessitating cleaning, re-
pairing, &c, and the amount thus paid out II
applied toward buying good case in the be-
ginning, would have saved all this trouble
and expense. We have recently seen a case
that meets all these requirements, it having
been carried for over twenty years and still
remains perfect. We refer to the JAS. BOSS
PATENT STIFFENFD GOLD CASE, which has
become one of the staple articles of the Jewel
cry trade, possessing as it does so many adj
vantages over all other watch cases, being
made of two heavy plates of solid gold over
a plate of composition, and we advise all our
readers to ask their Jeweler for a card or cat
alogue that will explain the manner in which
they are made
1t is the only STIFFENED CASE made with
two plates of gold, seamless pendents, and
centre, solid Joints, crown pieces, &C.. all OF
which are covered by letters patent. There
fore buy no case before consulting a Jeweler
who keeps the JAS. BOSS PATENT STIFFEN-
ED GOLD CASE, that you may learn the differ
ence between it and all limitations that claim
to be equally as good.
For sale by all responsible jewelers.. Ask
to see the warrant that accompanies each
case, and don't be persuaded that any other
make of case is as good.

Allegany County Ticket.

The Democrats of Allegany county
Tuesday last nominated the follow
ing county ticket: Senate, J. B.
Oder; House Of Delegates. James
Moriarity, William Heffron, James
Wilson. ]. S. johnson Commission
ers, Martin Rouzer, j. w. Sanders,
John Patterson. s. P. Harbaugh !;
Register of Wills, Col. Horace Res
ley; County Surveyor, c. E. Wild
ener.
The Cumberland Ne,os, in speaking
of the result says:
The Den Ocratic convention put up
ticket for county officers that will
not be hard to beat, though the can
didates were selected as usual with
regard 10 "availability." Geograph-
ically the ticket is curiosity. Eight
of the thirteen nominees are citizens
of Cumberland two fir, m the lower
districts; one from Mount Savage,
and one (for commissioner from 1.-THE
creek" Where the majorities are
expected to come from is not known.
1t is safe to say that they will not be
from 1.-THE CREEK Perhaps whoop-
lug majority is expected from the
constituents of the nominees. The
ticket will need 1t.
The convention did a graceful thing
in adopting resolutions of sympathy
with President Garfield.

Newspaper DunS.

Here is how a brother journalist
puts it. We persume that some peo-
pie think the newspaper men are
persistent DINNERS let farmer place
himself in similar position and see
if he would not do the same. Sup
pose that he raised one thousand
bushels of wheat, and his neighbor
should come and buy busheI, and
the price was only small sum of
$1.50 and the neighbor says, II will
pay you the amount in few days.
AS the farmer did not want to be
small about the matter, he says all
right. Another comes the same way,
until all the enc thousand bushels of
wheat are trusted out to one thousand
different persons and not one of them
concerns himself about it because it
is small amount he owes the far
mer, and of course that will not help
him any. He does not realize that
the farmer has frittered away his
large crop of wheat and that its value
is due him in thousand little drib-
let's and that he is seriously embar-
raised in his business because his
debtors treat it as a little matter.
But if all would pay him promptly,
which they could do as well as not,
it would be very large amount to
the farmer, and enable him to carry
on his business without difficulty.
The above comparison is too true of
the difficulties that the newspaper
man has to contend with. Point p.
Register.

The Virginia Bourbons are crow
ing very loudly. but there are evil
dences that they do not feel half as
confident of success as they pretend
to. They have been Boosting of their
ability to sweep the State by large
majority, yet now they admit frankly
that they are in danger of losing the
Legislature. Their great trouble is
the same as their brethren in Missis-
sippi are harassed with. namely, that
all the negroes are going to vote,
and. what is more to the purpose, are
going to have their votes counted.
There is little talk about negroes
voting the Democratic ticket either.
They are all going to vote for the
party which is in favor of having
their votes counted. This is why
the Southern elections of this year
are so extremely interesting. There
is likely to be "full vote, free
ballot and a fair count" for the first
time in many years.-M Y. Tribune.

Secretary BIain's Bulletins.

Duringthe Presidents illness moth
ing has been awaited with more in
terest or read with more confidence
than the regular evening despatch of
Secretary Blaine to Mr.. Lowell in
London. Indeed, the close observers
of the progress of events at the White
House have relied upon that dispatch
as the most accurate and instructive
of the bulletins. 1t was known to
be prepared carefully from the testi.
mony of the physicians and surgeons,
and 1T has been accepted as an an
nouncement of The actual situation,
somewhat less technical and formal
than the professional bulletin. There
has been evidently no attempt at
evasion of any kind, and if the sit
uation was grave, it was plainly
stated in the despatch.
The responses of Secretary Blaine
also to messages of sympathy from
the Queen of England, the PoDe and
official bodies have been, simple,
dignified and in the best taste. In
deed, throughout the whole melan-
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1881-09-17

choly period there has been nothing
in all the infinite detail of affairs at
the Presidents house inconsistent
with the same intelligent and modest
propriety. Nothing has been more
marked throughout than the SINGER
ity of feeling. There has been moth
ing merely official or perfunctory. A
shadow has lain across the threshold
of every home in the land, as if a
beloved inmate were MORALLY strick-
en-, and nothing in cur history is
more beautiful than the chastened
tenderness of the universal feeling.
An event which affects every indi-
vidual citizen so powerfully and
beneicially cannot be lost upon the
country.-Hagper's Weekly.

ance 5000. Robert Somerville, of
Barton, had his foot badly sDrained.
During the fire the streets were fill
ed with intoxicated men, and there
were numerous fights. There was a
great panic, and whiskey barrels
were broken open and their contents
drank by boys and men. The Cum
berland and Pennsylvania Railroad
depot made narrow escape. The
Cumberland Telephone Company
lost several hundred dollars in poles
and wires, but they were being re-
placed rapidly this afternoon. The
town will be rebuilt probably of
brick, as it will be very hard to have
assurances on any more frame stores.
The disaster is the most serious one
tfat has happened in the county
since the Cumberland fire of 1888.
