During the summer months our cor
respondents throughout the country
who are generally farmers, find but
little time to furnish their usually in.
teresting letters from their respec.
tive neighborhoods. We do not find
fault with them for this, knowing well
the difficulties under which they la.
Dor. But if two or three in each
neighborhood would make it a point
to send in the items as they occur and
not depend upon the efforts of one,
many items of general interest would
reach the office that now do not. Dur
ing the summer of our discomfort we
would be pleased and gratified If
everybody would write up the items
of news in their locality.

Why not have . telegraph office up
town? AS at present situated both
depots are some what out of the way.
An up town office was once talked
about and could have been secured had
sufficient interest been manifested and
the proper efforts made. Office rent
need not cost anything and expense OF
erecting the wire will be light. Sure
ly there is enough business to MAIN
tain the office and pay expenses. We
should like to hear from the business
men of the town in regard to the up
town telegraph office.

The Humboldt Union stated a week
or so ago that the Press was trying to
sell out to the anti-prohibition party
at that place. H. D. Smith thereupon
intimated that he would make McEl-
roy prove it in court, and commanded
the UniOn'to bring on the proofs. In
reply the Union says. 1--WE are not
unwilling to furnish it," and other
wise expresses belief in its ability to
prove all the charges made. Smith
can now back down and admit that he
did try to sell out or make the Union
prove the matter. We shall wait to
see what course the fellow adopts.
But it would be a joke if McElroy
should prove every charge.

The suggestion of Chairman Cooper of the re-
publican state committee that both the regular
and independent republican tickets be submitted
to the republican ''primarieS' of Pennsylvania as
a means OF deciding which should remain in the
field, did not receive respectful consideration
from the independents. 1t was secuted all along
the line The independents maintain that the
regular ticket was machine made and does not
represent the party, and they Will not listen to
any proposals for harmony and unity which do
not contemplate the undoing of the work OF the
machine by retiring its ticket and substituting
one nominated by a convention of delegates chosen
by the voters OF the party The truth of the situ-
alton is that there is no prospect OF any compro-
mise between the two factions. IL seems to be
generally conceded now that both tickets will re-
main In the field, and that the issue between them
viii be settled at the polls If the democratic
party of Pennsylvania was in state of concord
its chances OF Wrestling victory from the divided
and warning forces OF its opponent would be very
good; but there are two distinct factions OF demo-
Gratis, which have fought each other in conven-
tons and even at the polls for some years past.
The leaders and organs exerting all their In flu
ence to subdue the Internal animOSities of rival
factional bosses and brig the party up In solid
array In the coming campaign 1t Is urged that
the nomination of Gen. Hancock for governor
would have a harmOnizng effect, and the manner
In which his name has been received points to his
nomination, II he will agree TO accept. His elec-
ton as governor OF Pennsylvania would, in the
usual course OF political events, make him once
more the democratic presidential candidate but
at the same time, his defeat in the gubernatOrial
race would put him hopeleSSly out OF the preSden-
tal field.

The Missouri greenbackers yesterday went
through the forlorn task of nominating state
ticket They expended their bitterest invective
upon the democracy for redistricting the state
'solely in the interest OF the democratic party"
The Congressional districts were made up with
the view OF preventing greenbackers and repub-
hcans from getting to Congress- and the demo-
Gratis count upon a gain Of four or five members
from that state in the next House. The repub-
hcans will probably make a combination with the
greenbackers in Missouri on Congressional candi-
dates, and 1t is possible that enough Independent
voters may join them to defeat the gerrymander
project This plan OF diStricting the state
% enable the democrats to get more than
their share of members Is of the same diScredit-
able character as that adopted by the readjusters
In Virginia to gobble up an undue proportion of
Che Congressional districts in that state.

The strike OF iron workers at Pittsburg COM
meneed yesterday, and forty thousand men
stopped work. The suspension of work on this
wholesale scale must have depressing effect
upon business, but the good temper and orderly
spirit evinced by the strikers, both In the iron
works and the coal mines, gives encouragement to
believe that there viii be labor riots In cOnnec-
ton with the present strikes, such as prevailed
some years ago and were so destructive OF life
and property.
