Stopped the Wrong Man.
Among the spectators aft the n

Among the spectators at the Demo-
cratic Conv ention, recently, for short
tune IN the afternoon, might have been
seen the benevolent and handsome coun-
tenance, even at his age, of DR.. c.. V.
Williamson, of Lodi. The doctor no
longer takes an active part in politics,
but he has been war-horse in times
gone BY, and little of the old fire could
yet be seen to sparkle in his eye when it
came to making anomination or casting
a vote. In ante bellum days he was a
Representative of 'Old. Tuolumne" in
the Assembly for one. term, and this calls
to mind an incident of the period when
he was practicing physician in Sonora.
In those days the doctor was one Of the
''boys'-an Apollo in feature. took his
toddy straight and often, fought the
tiger and played monte, although his
favorite sport was draw poker,'' in q
game of which he would leave the
dlning-t bile any time to take hand,
nor would he leave so long as he could
get anybody to play with him; indeed,
it was a proverbial fact that he never
sought his pillow so long as he had
cent in his pocket. But just here it
might be well enough to state, paren
thetically, that the doctor has long since
settled down, got married. attends
church regularly and has class in Sab
bath school-in fact has gone through
general reconstruction. To continue
with the story: One dark, dreary night
he was called out several miles into The
country to see a patient, and on his way
back was stopped by some highwaymen
and ordered to surrender his wealth.
The doctor reined in his horse,, looked
down at the road-agents, and said: Il
guess you do not know who l am, do
youo?'' The leader of the band informed
him that they did not, nor did they care,
but if he didn't hurry up. and hand over
his money and valuables they did know
he would soon be corpse. "Well, by
gosh, he said, my name is DR.. Viii
hanson, and was never known to leave
gambling room SO long as had cent
in my pocket. Have you got any chawn'
tobacker?' That name was sufficient.
The robbers knew they had stopped the
wrong man, and the chief courteously
rendered the professor of physic chew
of tobacco and told him to pass on

Independent leaders propose TO humil-
late the Regular Republicans, thus
wreak their petty spite, and thus
revenge for past sights. Well, we do
not believe that any sslfrespecting
Republican will submit to such humil-
iation. That General Beaver is the
choice Of the party as candidate no
one doubts. That he should be with.
drawn upon such dictation would
result, and should result, in the ex-
tinction of the party in the State.
The Independents are simply bound
to "kick," no matter what the propos-
itions are. The Republicans have
offered them, in the above propositions,
everything they have heretofore asked
for, But, no. They say in substance,
1--WE have started out on a kick, and
nothing short of kick will satisfy u.s.
We're going to kick on everything.
Well kick if you endorse our whole
ticket. We're kickers of the kickers." |"

the bosses never attempted to extort
pledges from these removed officials
that they would not be candidates
again that they should discriminate
against themselves. The Independ.
ents, however, not only demand that
General Beaver and his colleagues
shall withdraw, but that they shall
pledge themselves not again to accept
a nomination if rendered to them.
First remove them from the ticket,
and require a pledge that they should
stay removed no matter if they we're
again nominated. Did any boss ever
require such terms of an Office holder
whom he had removed And if he
had, would the Independents not have
execrated him ? Then why should

What Garfield Said.

Franklin Independent Press.
So hard run are some of those tend
ers of the Democratic party, the
meaner and more mendacious class of
"Independent" papers that they keep
harping on the silly story that Gar
fields words were hissed in the caucus
of the late Republican Convention at
Harrisburg. The story was, that
while Delegate Caldwell, of Mercer,
was quoting from speech made by
Garfield in nominating Sherman at
Chicago Convention, he was inter-
rupted with Kisses. This has been
denied by any number of delegates
and by Mr.. Caldwell himself, in a
printed card. 1t makes no difference,
however, to those pretended champions
Of purer political methods, the "inde-
pendent" editors. The lie is to their
purpose, and they'll use it till its too
tatterod and threadbare to hang to-
gether. 1t has, in fact, already gone
to pieces. Its only foundation lay in
the circumstances that q number of
delegates in the caucus, becoming i'm
patient of the protracted debate,
called for the Question" while Mr..
Caldwell was speaking.
AS the independents" have worked
themselves into such fine editarial
frenzy over the alleged insult to Gar
fields memory, let us commend to
them the words used by Garfield IN
the very speech in question. They
apply with convincing force at this
moment. 1t remains to be seen
whether his pretended indicators
and disciples will accept the words
then uttered by Garfield, who was a
builder up of the Republican party.

Pennsylvania Democrats see that
reform is the idea of the day, and they
try hard to adopt it in their platform
with an air Of unconceru and habit,
as though reform were as familiar in
their mouths as a household word.
They probably will succeed in fooling
only the ignorant. Tbs record OF
Pennsylvania Democracy is no more

1t appears that the friends Of the
Railroad neglect a very important
argument, which ought TO have con-
siderable bearing, viz: Fayette Co.,
Pa, has from six to eight thousand
hands engaged in digging and coke
ing coal, making fire brick, digging
ore and other work, which would not
be carried on without a Railroad.
To pay these hands requires about
$5,G00,00 per annum. II we sue
coed in getting Railroad through
Monongalia county, it is reasonable
to suppose that at least onc-third Of
the above number would be employed
in Monongalia county. Say two
Thousand, and this would require
nearly two million dollars to pay
them, and it is fair to suppose that
one-half the amount would be left in
the county, annually. Again, it has
been ascertaincd that produce and
