EDITORS CITIZEN:-W notice the
call for county meeting TO consider the
poor house question. One principal ar
gument used by those favoring poor
house is, that it is often hard to get
any one to take charge of the poor
under present laws. But we have
never known any such great trouble.
Then again they say a poor house
properly established and managed
would be self sustaining But expert
ence in other counties show the re-
verse of this The Mercer county
poor house has been a great burden
and curse to the people of that county
for many years, according to all ac-
counts. And so in Venango county.
We heard a man say so the other day.
A great many Butler county people
know the truth Of these cases From
its nature it is not very likely that an
economical farmer would get the man.
agement Of poor house farm. More
likely some other kind Of person who
knew nothing about farming-so he
got his pay-big pay too generally, is
all he would care much about. We
think the present system by odds not
only the most economical but the most
humane. Every township should
keep its own poor The cattle upon {
thousand hills belong to the Lord, o
which we owe the tenth for the loar
to US; and taking care Of the Lords
poor is one item Of the tenth. Ant
we pray leave them with US, for i
will take great deal more TO pay th
Offices and run the poor house than t.
keep the poor. We want something
left for churches and other things

Suit Against til P. & ". 2. R -

81. e r r Co. Files Bill
in F0,li+v

As foreshadowed in the Commercial
Gazette. an important suit was begun
in the o. S. Circuit Court yesterday
bv the filing of bill in equity by
Messrs. Hampton & Dalzell and ID. T
Watson, attorneys for Grimwell Burt,
of New York, on behalf of himself and
other stockholders of the Pittsburg,
New Castle and Lake Erie Railroad
Company against the Pittsburgh and
Western Railroad Company. in which
he asks that the sale of the property
and rights of the former company to
the latter be set aside and that a re-
ceiver be appointed to take charge of
the railroad until this suit is decided.
The bill sets forth that Mr.. Burt the
owner of 800 shares of the p, n G. &
l.. Z. II. r. stock, and that on August
27th, 1879, the property and rights of
this road were sold by the Sheriff of
Allegheny county on judgment Of
S., 020 to the defendants in this suit for
the sum of S., 500, who then organized
new company known as the Pitts
burg and Western Railroad Company.
There was no interruption in the busi-
ness of the p, n. G. & L Z. r. r..
Co. to those of the defendants who
were its officers continued to manage
it's affairs after the Sherif's sale. The
plaintiff further alleges that the sale was
fraudulent and void and it was procur-
ed to be made by collusion between
certain of the directors and officers OF
the said company who made use Of their
positions to join with the others, for
the express purpose of divestlng the
plaintiff and the general stockholders OF
their property in the road. lie also al
leges that the money with which the
judgment was purchased belonged tC
the P. N. C. & l.. L. r. Il. Co Al
the time of the sale the entire floating
indebtedness of said company did not
exceed $27, 900 and its pressing indebt
edness did not exceed $1,000 and there
were no judgments against the company
except the SIS, 020 referred to, and S40(
more The company was then the
owner Of So, ZOO of bank stock and hac
yet unssued $35, 900 of their frs
mortgage bonds, and therefore he claims
that there was no necessity fer the
sale. He also alleges th.t there was
an irreguIarity in the Sherilf's proceed
ngs. Many of the creditors of the p
