has been reported on Wall street, for
several days past, that the Union Pacific
Railway Company has decided 10 build

Officers Of the Union Pacific have, how
ever. persistently denied the truth Of the
story. Yesterday, it was announced
privately to stockholders that the rights
above detailed would accrue only to
stockholders of record on Saturday last,
and numerous protests we're sent in
against closing the books in such an ar

To the Republicans Of Juniata.

GENTLEMEs:-Ic call upon on, one and all,
to support the entire Republican and Union
Judicial and County Ticket, and in urging
you to support Mes,rs. Hench and Conn,
the Independent candidate, on the Repus-
lican and Union Judicial and County Tick
ct, will call your attention to few facts.
1t was by the support of the Independent
Democracy that We elected our present
Sheriff and two Commissioners, and with
out their aid we would, as in former year s,
have met the enemy and been defeated, and
such would be the inevitable result on the
sth day of November, 1881, without. the aid
Of the Independents.
These gentlemen, the representatives OF
the independent Democracy of Juniata, well
deserve the support of every Republican.
Do not be deluded by the cry that if you
must vote for Democrats, you may select
the Democrats yourselves.
The difference between Hench and Cont
and the men on the Ring Democratic ticket
is as wide as day and night.
These gentlemen, while not Republicans,
are men of high character and will discharge
the duties of their respective offices with
due regard to the best interests of the
whole community. II the Republicans were
to scratch their names from the ticket,
would you consider it honorable, since you
know the past'
Your support Of the Independents is due
to them when you take into consideration
the fact, that by their aid we elected our
Sheriff and two Commissioners, and that
they are now supporting the entire Union
ticket.
We only need solid Republican vote to
win gloriotis victory. Let the result of
Tuesday show that every Republican in Jr-
niata county has voted the entire Repubii-
can and Union Judicial and county ticket.
/ have the honor to be

The Mechanics National Bank OF
Newark, n. j., closed its doors on
Monday. The concern WAS ruined
by the cashier loaning money to the
extent of two million dollars without
the knowledge of the directors. The
improper loans began in 1873, and
extended from that time to the pres
ent. The cashier covered his work
by false entries. He has been put
under arrest. There is nothing left
of the concern but the building. 1t
seems little queer to hear that a
cashier can get away with two mil
lion dollars of bank money and the
directors know nothing of it. threads
