UNIONTOWN.

Mr.. ]. w. ALTHAR has purchased the
lot formerly owned by Mrs. McCave.and
the old unsightly building will be trans
formed into a small and comfortable
residence. Mr. Althar has SO far proven
to be an industrious, civil citizen, and
an excellent mechanic, and it is such
men that help to build up the reputation
of the villages in which they reside.
THE SUPPER given by Miss Aggie and
Jos. Beal, on Wednesday evening of last
week, was one of the most ENJOYABLE of
the season. Some forty guests were
present. They were received in the
most hospitable and kindly manner, and
every provision was made for their COM
fort and amusement. The evening was
very pleasant, and the sleighing was
good enough, so almost every one re-
sponded to the invitation.
CONTRARY to the expectation of many
persons, the UniOntown mills have been
doing good business, and as the mill is
now put in good repair, there is no rea-
son why satisfaction cannot be given to
those who favor it with their patronage
If good work is done, the advantages to
the people of this locality are apparent
WHEAT has been delivered in large
quantities at Bruce and Ramage's Sta
tions, while the Shedding was good. We
are informed that the floor of Bentley
& Coffland's warehouse gave way, and
large quantity of wheat fell with it. Did
not learn the amount of damage to
wheat.
SOME of our farmers are selling their
wheat and buying flour, and they claim
that it is profitable mode of operation.
Mr. JOS SHARP visited his friends at
Springfield. and returned few days
since. He brought homo with him a
nice Short Horn bullock Mr. William
Sharp was among the first to introduce
improved breeds of cattle into this COM
munity.
NEVER SAY DIE til you're dead" The
new railroad project is still alive, and
steps are being taken to ascertain the
wishes of the people along the proposed
line of road. NOU is the time for those
who favor road from New Athens to
be active, and to be able to guarantee
the construction of only tive miles of
road and then further action can be ta-
ken with a reasonable hope of success.
DADDY JoB"-Mr. James Job is Just
one big smile. He acknowledges to be-
ing the father of boy baby. They
won'tlet him carry it around much yet,
for fear he would let it fall and break
it.
THE Flushing boys were down on
Sabbath, wearing out cur snow. If they
had not bl ought ladies with them, there
would have been trouble among the
boys-and still there are always pretty
girls enough in sleighing time.
Mr.. J. H. MAUGHIMAN, of Canal Do
yer. is visiting his sisters here. He-has
become very popular with both ladies
and gentlemen, and seems to be a young
man that would be popular in any COM
munity.

The HeraIh's Prediction.

The HerdidS Richmond correspondent
gave the following as his prediction for
Virginia in Yesterdays issue OF that paper
The Democrats are not less confident of
! carrying the State for Massey. the boiling
Readiuster, who is their candidate for con-
gresham at large. They are not enthusi-
astic as to maiorties for Massey, but they
claim that they will elect him easily. Ii
they fail to elect Massey it will be due to
the laundering action OF the Democratic
State Committee in foisting on the party a
candidate whose entire record was ut vari-
ance with every established principle and
policy OF Virginia Democracy for the past
fifteen years. Nearly every Democrat feels
that he is stultiiying himself in voting for
Massey.
The result in Ohio put considerable stiff
fleming in the Virginia Democratic back
bone, and this, with the prospect OF Repub-
lican defeat in New York and Pennsvlva-
MIA, has given them renewed energy and
Unparalleled activity during the past month.
With sraightout Democratic candidate
at large it is safe to say they could have
swept the State. As it is they claim they
will carry, besides the State at large, Gar
rison IN the First, Marshall in the Second.
@. ID. Wise in the Third, Cabell in the
Fifth, Tucker In the Sixth, O'Ferrall in the
Seventh, and Barbour in the Eighth. They
concede the Fourth and Ninth districts TO
the CoalitiOnists

Judge Hughes-Who May Vote


Judge HUGHES in his published opinion
touching the rights OF registered voters
confirms fully what, when commenting
upon BLAIR's absurd opinion, we stated as
10 the duty deyOlved upon the voter HIM
self. We call upon the election officers
everywhere. but particularly those in
Richmond, to note as TO disputed ques-
lions:
First, that every man must have paid his
capitaton tax before election.day, and the
election officer must have some good evil
dence OF that fact.
Secondly, that no man can vote who is
not registered unless he makes affidavit
that he applied TO the registrar at the
proper time TO be registered and the regis
trar refused TO register his name. Judge
HuGHEs says on this point:
"The first of these sections Of the
United States law] authorizes any person
otherwise qualified, who has been deprived
OF the privilege OF registration by any such
officer, 10 vote, though not registered,
upon his own affidavit, rendered afterwards
TO Judges OF election, that he himself had
done all lnat he was Ituuutu ny AhN " w
in order 10 be registered
Note here that these persons must be
"ohortciSe qudlifed' They must also
have paid their capitation-taX. The mere
fact that the registrar refused to register
their names does not give them the right to
vote unless they have paid thei capitation-
tax. This tax having been paid, and the
voter having made affidavit that he ap-
piled to be registered and was refused re-
gistration, then the election-oficcrs may
allow him TO vote.
But there are very few such voters in
Richmond or elsewhere. We don't sup
pose there are dozen in this city. For
tunately the registrars are in Virginia elec'
tion-OiiiSrs; and therefore know whether
the swearing voter applied TO be registered
or not. II the Judge of election who is
also the registrar knows that the voter il
swearing to lie he must OF course refuse
to take the vote. Allow nobody to deceive
YOU as 10 Judge HUGHES's opinion. Ii Il
Just as we have stated it and quoted it.
On another point, and only one other
IllunES SlNCS Ni OptulOD. lit
the receipts OF regularly-appointed col
lectors OF delinquent taxes must be takel
as evidence that the capitation-taX is paid
We endorse this opinion, too; but We re
mind the election-oflicers everywhere tina
the law does not provide for the appoint
ment by these collectors Of deputy collect
orS. IL n maxim of the law that dele
gate cannot delegate his powers. There
no law, We repeat, authorizing any co
lectors of delinquent taxes except the co
lectors appointed by the Auditor himsel
Therefore the receipt OF deputy Of an
such collector is not good. 1t is an outrag
to talk Of sending such deputies TO the va
rious precincts to receipt for taxes on eleC
tion-day. The tax must be paid before elec
for-dQy. REMEMBER THIS.

To tie Editor Of The Dispatch:
The political outlook in this county i,
quite as good as it was in the days OF Tuck

Tucker should not succeed by as large a
majority as he had over Frazier.
The mining wealth of this part OF South

and its mine OF health is not the least val
liable and inviting. 1t is rare for grown
person TO die hereabouts except from old
age.

profession earnestly and faithfully since

Tucker and Massey. lie can walk two or
three miles without much inconvenience.

which he cheerfully imparts TO his many
young friends. Long NAV he live in the

All OF our old people have left recollec.

The Battle is Joined.

To-day virginians will decide whether
their State shall be in the future the leader
OF the triumphal hosts Of the national
Democratic party or mere satrapy OF Mr..
A.TuUR's, acknowledging allegiance to
MALONE as a satrap. To-day the gathering
clans Of the grand old Democratic party
will ride victorious through Pennsylvania,
New York, Indiana, and other northern
States. and Il is for the people Of this State
10 decide whether Virginia shall have cause
TO ioin In the glad acclaim which will an
nource those victories or 10 clothe herself
in sackcloth and ashes, like another jon.
To-day yirginians viii decide 10y their
votes whether they will be ruled by Boss
or by themselves.
The issues involved in the contest have
been set forth in every pant OF this wide
extended Commonwealth. There is no eX-
cuse for ignorance rs to their Importance
on the part OF any voter. Eloquent speakers
have declared them upon almost every
stump, and ready writers recorded them In
numerous Journals. II the people, there
fore, decide 10 perpetuate the ruIe oi MA
HONE, they viii do SO with full knowledge
OF what they are doing. 1t does not seem
TO us to be possible that any Democrat can
now believe that MALONE is anything but
a Republican, and Republican OF the
worst kinda stalwart, q Boss, an Admin
is,raiionist, Grantite-ready for any duty
which may be assigned TO him as one OF the
worst bosses OF this boss-ridden land.
We shall not undertake this morning TO
repeat the story Of the campaign. Let II
suffice for any Democrat to know that this
is the day Of days for Virginia and Virgil
mans. From this day We shall date either
our deliyerance from the Old Man OF the
Sea or our condemnation to future OF
modification and shame.

Mr. s,muel Wimsatt, one Of the regis
frars Of his city, r., we learn from the
Wasbinyton papers, In that city and was
interviewed bv a Republican reporter last
night. THAT paper says: "Mr. Wfmsatt
was recently arrested In Alexandria,
CHARGED with registering names OF people
who had no ripbtto vote In Virginia. The
case was dismissed by Judge Meade, OF the
Corporation Court, who could not ind
sufficient grounds to proceed to trial.
The Bourbon party OF Alexandria have
made persistent efforts to secure the regis
tration-books i'm possession OF Mr.. w mn
satt, and were ably seconded by Judge
Meade. During the trial the prosecution
endeayored TO have Judge Meade issue an
order on Wimsatt to deliver his books TO
the clerk Of the court. Judge Meade re-
fused. After the trial, however, the court
issued an order on WimSatt, which was IT.
regular. and now while Mr.. Wimsatt Is IN
this city on personal business. the Hon.
Judge Meade has threatened TO remove him
from his posItion. Mr.. Wimsatt declines
10 give ND the books from principle, and
is defended by all his political friends, as
the surrender OF these books would entail
n loss OF about 800 Coalition votes"
Wimsatt, Il. Henry simpson, j. =. Ag-
new, c. l.. Stuart. and W. w. Herbert
were appointed in June last by the Judge
OF the Corporation Court committee TO
examine the registration books OF the city,
Il having been reported that they were In
an imperfect condition. The committee
performed their duty, and reported unanl-
mousy that the books Of the Second and
Fourth ward were "GeSirOycd,' where
upon Judge Meade entered an order di-
rcctine that whereas it appeared that
the registration-boOks Of the Second
and Fourth wards were A" destroyed" he
therefore ordered new registration in the
said wards to take the place OF the old one.
Wimsatt and Arthur Simpson being ap-
pointed registrars. The registration was
concluded and the remnant OF the " de-
stroyed" books ordered by the Court to be
placed in the custody Of IFS clerk. The
other registrar ut once obcyed, but VIM
satt. instead OF obeying the order OF the
Court. and in defiance 81 the said order,
took the book and went to Washington,
where he has been since, and rs stated IN
the above paragraph. where he proposes to
remain with the book in his custody.
These facts coming to the knowledge OF
Judge Meade, that official at once issued an
order. to take elect at / p. VI. to-day,
removing WimSatt from his position as
registrar and appointing o. {. Whi;tleSey,
Republican, in his stead. The Judge
states that the old books having been placed
in the custody Of the proper officers, his
discretion in the matter ceases. At |
O'Clock Wimsatt not appearing, Mr.. Whit
tlesey's commission was handed him. and
he is now registrar for the Fourth Ward.

is foregone conclusion. Mr.. Cleveland
and Mr.. Hill, the Democratic candidates
for Governor and Lieutenant-Go vernor,

thousands of Republicans. Many other
thousands will not go TO the polls, or will
not vote for Governor and Lieutenant-Gov-

dlsaffection is so general that it insures the
election also Of the Democratic candidates

given opinions, which are published, on

CHRISTIAN, though requested, refused last

that we like Judge IlUGBEs's and Judge

to the judges all appeals on those very
questions must be earned on eiecton-day.
