ALexingtop, Ky. special says troops

again a number of the mob were killed

men who last night gave up all hope OF

When they reached Catlettsburg they
made no effort to capture the prisoners,
who were safely placed on board the

is certain that Mr.. Clark, the Democrat
ic pomiree, would poll an immense Re-
publican vote, particularly in Philadel-
phia, where the bar itself has led the
revolt against Mr.. Rawle, and through
out Western Pennsylvania. But, as the
matter stands, with two Republican
candidates before the people, there is no
reason why Mr.. Clark should
not receive very many Republican
votes. Neither Of his competitors has
any hope of election, and in recognition
Of the just claims of the Democratic
party, above noted, its candidate for the
supreme bench ought to be elected thereto
by practically unanimous vote.
For Mr.. Clark, under the circum'
stances, thus to run ahead Of his ticket
would be no disparagement OF or reflec-
tion upon any of his Democratic asso.
ciates who are candidates for political
Offices. 1t would simply be a just ex-
preston of public sentiment in strict
accord with the true spirit of our insti.
tutions, that all the people shall have a
voice in government and the administra-
ti0n Of justice. Besides, Silas NJ. Clark
is in himself worthy of such a marked
testimonial of public respect and conf
dence. He is no ordinary man he has
few if any superiors at the bar Of this OF
any other state. Tributes to his personal
and professional worth have yecomeupfr0m
every quarter, and none are louder in
their praises than those who have differ
ed with him in politics. Unlike Mr..
Rawle, he is not and never has been
what is suggestively known in these days
of monopoly as :; corporation lawyer.
His sympathies are with the people and
his views well defined and immovable as
to the paramount nature of their rights
His studies have been pure and deep and
his practice chiefly of the kind to- fit him
for exalted judicial position. His men
tai characteristics point him out rs a
| man who would adorn the bench. The
people Of Pennsylvania will honor them
selves in honoring Siias NJ, Clark with
the largest majority ever given for q
candidate for the supreme bench Of this
state.

THE Harrisburg Telegraph, which
may be considered the Cameron personal
organ, denounced Governor Hoyt one
day as an Independent and next day cor
rected itself by declaring on the best au-
thOrity hat the governor was for
Beaver. Then the reporters got after
the governor and he has had a lively
time in carrying out his purpose to tell
them nothing. He escaped by fatty de-
claring that no manner of effort would
induce him to say which ticket he favor
ed until he felt like declaring himself
1t is not very important to anyone to
know how Governor Hoyt proposes to
vote, as lie cannot elect either of the Re-
publican candidates or do much towards
their election but it is quite novel
thing to have n governor who has nc
declared political position. The COVER.
nor's neutrality is wise enough in some
aspects of the case. He knows that
neither faction of his party can be sue
cessfui and that there is no use in his
troubling himself to decide where be
stands in relation to them. Probably his
sympathies are with the Independents
while his allegiance is due to the Regu
lars so the fence makes very good
| rcosting place.

DEMOCRATS should vote for all the
candidates upon their tickets, unless
they consider them to be, unfit
for the places for which they are
nominated. The Democratic ticket in
Lancaster county is worthy the support
of all the Democratic voters. for there is
none on it from top to bottom who is not
a fit and proper candidate There is 10
man upon it more worthy of support
than Abraham Collins, nominated for
senator in the Northern district. lie
should poll every Democratic vote. be-
cause he will make Il good senator and
because he is his party's candidate.

sions conference collection, Sunday schools

and for other objects about 300 additional
aggregating in all some 1850. Moreover,
we have baptsed infants IS adults, add
ed 70 new members to the church have
had 30 conversions and accessions from
the Sunday schools added nearly 200 vol
umes to her Sunday school library lost but
member by death by removal 10. This
is good showing and sensible people will
readily understand that these latter facts and
figures, for the most part at least bear an
important relation to the foregoing. All in
all, y c had good year, and the church
has great reason to thank God and take
courage. The Pastor having passed
through revival meetings; made between
900 and 1000 pastoral visits, and met every
regular appointment but 2, finds himself at
the end of the year, more and more
in love with God and the people, and
in good health and plight for his 10th
annual appointment. The Lord be praised
And may He bless the people--all the PEG
