REPUBLICAN MEETING.
The COnrs House Crowded Last
Wednesday EVening-Sena
tor Mitchell and Nr.
Wolfe, the Speak.
crs. did not
arrive.

1t is usual to exaggerate as to the
number present at political meetings,
one party or the other, as the case
NAV be, always endeavor to enlarge
or lessen the real number attending
party meetings But in regard to the
Independent Republican meeting, held
in the Court House on last Wednes-
day evening, we but speak the truth,
known to all present, when we say
that it was as large, if not larger, than
any held in that room this campaign.
The seats were full and many stood In
isles. And this, notwithstanding 1t
was generally known that the speakers
had failed to reach US and could not
be present. Had Messrs. Wolfe and
Mitchell arrived we venture to say,
that the Court room would necer
have been more densely packed than
il would have been to hear them.
Hundreds on the street did not go up
into the meeting, but went home when
it became known the speakers from
| abroad had missed connection with
the train at Parker for this place
But Notwithstanding the sore dis
appointment of their failing to be here
the room was full and the people
awaited patiently to hear anything
that might be said This alone evil
denced the feeling and interest taken IN
the Independent Republican cause in
this county.
The meeting was organized by call
ing DIR. A. V. Cunningham of Zelienople,
to preside, with the following Vice
Presidents; David Marshall, Esq, OF
Prospect, Simon P Young, OF Summit
township, John c. Moore, Esq OF
Center twp, Thomas Mechling Of JEFF.
ferson twp, Philip Hilliard, Esq. o.
Washington twp, Adam Pisor, o
Worth twp, Hon Daniel Fielder, OF
West Jackson twp, William G. Smith
ESQ. of Marion township, George
Shoup, of Oakland twp, William
Patton, of Fairview borough, and
Theodore Huselton, of Butler borough.
Secretaries; A. T. Black, Esq. OF
Butler, John Weigle, of Zelienople
and Lewis F. Walker, Esq. of Butler.
After some remarks by the President
of the meeting, DR. Cunningham, and
by J. Fl Negley; editor of the CITIZEN,
mainly in explanation of the absence
of the speakers expected, the meeting
adjourned, in good humor, and with
three cheers for the Independent Re-
publican cause and ticket, headed by
Col John Stewart, for Governor.
The Germania Cornet Band, of this
place, was present with the meeting
and during the proceedings rendered
several airs OF most excellent music,

MilIer orCongress

On Thursday last the labors of the
Congressional Conference for this dis
trict came to an end, at Cory, and le-
suited in the denomination of Hon. s
n. Miller, Of Mercer county. This re-
suit was obtained by DIR. Roberts, the
candidate of Crawford county, with
drawing his name as candidate. Two
of. his confarees then voted for Mr.
Miller, thus giving him FIVE votes, and
the other one voting for Mr.. McJunkin,
thus giving him four votes Mr.. Miller
was declared nominated and on motion
of the Butler conferees his nomination
was made unanimous.
Ard thus ends this long contest
lasting since August last We know
of noshing unfair being said or done by
Mr.. Miller to secure the nomination,
and we therefore place his name on the
county ticket at the head of our column
and will plaIe his name upon the
tickets printed. Butler county was
entitled to this nomination by rotation
or turn In the district. But it has been
decided another should have it, and by
all rules of honorable dealing we are
bound to yield the successful competi-
tor q full and fair support. The record
that MIR. Miller had already made in
Congress was strongly urged in his
favor and no doubt had much to do in
his present denomination And, be-
sides his industry and attention to the
duties Of the Office, be has shown an
independence of spirit and action that
must be admitted. We have satisfactory
proof that he was not, like some other
of the Pennsylvania members, subser-
Went to the will and wishes of Senator
Don Cameron, but that he asserted his
own rights and manhood as against
Cameron whenever an occasion requir-
ed. We believe that, if reelected, be
will continue. in that line and assert his
own and the rights of his district.
Under this view we trust and support
him, aud advise that the full Republi-
can vote Of the county be given him
on Tuesday next. II

Destroying the Party.

The effort of the Independent Re-
publicans of Pennsylvania is to pre-
serue the party, not to destroy it.
This can only be done by preserving
its purity. 1t is the corruption OF
Cameronism that is destroying It,.
By freeing ourselves Cf him the party
will more likely live and flourish, than
if Cameron continues to boss and die
tate. The effort now making is there
fore like unto that made by church
to cast out an unworthy and dishonest
pastor or member of the church.
This does not destroy the church. On
the contrary it strengthens it. The
not doings is what would likely destroy
the church. Therefore, there is no
wisdom, truth or reason in the cry
against the Independents that they are
destroying the party. Nothing good
was ever destroyed by being cleansed
or reformed. And this cleansing can
never be done too soon. If done now
this year-in this State, it will not
have to be done next year, or in the
more important year. 1884, when we
will have President to elect Let all
the honest, veil wishing Republicans
Of Butler county consider this matter.
They are not holding Office under or de-
string any from Cameron. Asa gener-
al thing it is only his Office holders that
raise the sensoless cry of destroying
the party" No, it is simply destroy
ing Cameron, and the power of has

THE Republicans Of this county are
united upon their duty to stand closely
together in the support Of their county
ticket. Congress and the Legislature
just now are of more Importance than
anything else. If the Republicans
can retain the Legislature of this

can prevent harmful legislation, be the

What Already Done.

Franklin H. Agnew, Esq, of Beaver,
has received the Republican nomina-
ton for the State Senate in the Beaver
and Washington county district; Sen
ator Lee has been renominated 10 the
Venango and Warren county district !;
A. L. Richmond, Esq, is the candidate
in the Crawford county district, and
Capt. Aull, in one of the Allegheny
county districts, that elect State Sena-
tors next Tuesday. These candidates
are all anti Cameron and if elected will
oppose sending him again to the U. 5.
Senate. In the only other Republican
district in the Western part of the
State. that elects State Senator this
wear, Allegheny city, Col. John NJ
Sullivan has been brought out and is
running as the anti Cameron candidate
IF he, and the four in the-above districts
all succeed, as it is confidently believed
they will, then the whole five Western
districts will return Senators opposed
to Cameron. And this is what has al
ready been accomplished by the people
in their determination to free them
selves of Cameron rule. And yet there
are some who say, "don't fight Came
ron now; wait while; wait until he
comes up again for reelection and
then oppose him." If the people aoait
ed until then, they would then find thai
they had acaited too long. 1t would bt
like locking the stable door after the
horse had been stolen.
