storative for my daughter, whom
was thoroughly convinced was
wasting away with Consumption.
Having lost three daughters by the
terrible disease, under the care Of

believe that anything could arrest
the progress Of the disease, but, to
my great surprise, before my daugh-
ter had taken one bottle Of Browns
IRON BIrrERs, she began to mend
and now is quite restored to former
health. A fifth daughter began to
show signs Of Consumption, and
when the physician was consulted
he quickly said "Tonics were re-
quired :" and when informed that
the elder sister was taking BRowN's
IRON BIrTERs, responded "that is
q good tonic, take it."

Bigotry in England.

The Church of England clergymen, as :
rule, are the most bitter opponents of any
religious. social or political reform to bt
found in Great Britain. This determine
ton is nowhere more emphatically shown
than in TIE treatment Of the dead who Il,
do not belong to the Established Chm b.
For many years the body of such per on
could not be laid in the churchyard at all; ;
then, wh interment was permitted by
act of Parliament, no religious services
were allowed; but under the new Burials
act even Dissenting ministers are tntijled
to perform the rites of their respective
churches, and the rector Of the parish is
helpless to prevent what he and his breth-
ren regard as little short Of sacrlege. But
there are some of them who try to get
even with their Dissenting parishon rs,
and such one was the rector of a very
large and liberally y-endOwed parish in
Anglesa, near Bangor. The parish abuts
upon the sea, and as dead bodies often
! float ashore a place for their interment
| has been set apart. About five weeks ago
the first burial under the Burials ac. took
| place, and the presence of a Dissenting
minister in the churchyard caused the
rector great soreness of soul. The body
was that of woman, and it was laid
beside that of her husband. A week later
the body Of sailor was found on the
beach, and the rector required the sexton
to reopen the grave Of the woman and
put the sailors coffin above hers. The
disturbance caused in the parish by thi,
action of the rector brought aDout the re
moval of the sailors body, but the rector
denies all knowledge Of it, and apparently
considers that he has done nothing Objec
tienable. The matter has been referred
to the Home Secretary, and the case may
even cause an inquiry in Parliament

Republican Senatorial Conference

The meeting of the Conference of
this, the 3Sth Senatorial District, was
held in Tionesta, Oct. "a, 1882, at A
p. m, for the purpose of placing in
nomination candidate for the State
Senate.
Forest county presented the name of
Miles w. Tate Esq, as her candidate.
The delegates from the other counties
of the district, not being able to be
present, but having telegraphed in.
structions concurring in said nomina-
tion, Miles w. Tate Esq. was thereup.
on unanimously nominated as the Re.
publican candidate for the 3Sth Sena-
torial District.
Of our candidate, Mr.. Tate, but a
short sketch is necessary: A native
of Clearfeld county, he was there ad.
mitted to the bar in 1866, having,
been a student of the late Hon. H. B.
Swoope. In 1868 he located in Tio.
nesta, Forest county, where he has
since resided, and devoting himself
exclusively to his chosen profession,
has attained therein more than local
reputation. A gentleman of unques.
toned ability, fine orator, of broad
culture, and always staunch Repub-
lican, he is in every way qualified for
the responsible position of State Sena-
tor. There is no doubt but that he
can make it warm tor Mr.. Hall, and
if elected will be representative OF
whom the Republicans of his county
and district will not be ashamed.

OUR CANDIDATES.

Pennsylvania's great election will
take place one week from next Tues
day. Although in this county the
canvass has thus far been very quiet it
is beginning to liveu up and for the
remaining few days politics will doubt
less be all the rage. Throughout the
State it has been very active, and the
Republicans have been vigorous and
hard at work, aud to-day the outlook
for carrying the ticket through by an
old-time majority is very bright and
promising. While this is the case it
will not do for us to let the matter lag
in our own little county, but we must
be up and doing for the time is short,
and hay must be made while the sun
shines. Before going any further let
Us take a glance at our admirable
ticket.
GENERAL JAMES A. BEAVER,
our gallant standard. bearer, it lie need.
less to say, is by far the most competent
man for the high office of Governor in
the field. No man in tho least dis.
posed to be fair, and who knows the
several candidates, but that knows this
to be case, and will acknowledge it if
put to test. The only objection ever
raised against him is that he was nom.
mated by the "bosses." This is as alb.
surd as it is false. Is there an intelli.
gent man in Forest county to-day of
any party who believes that General
Beaver was not the choice of four.
tifths of the Republican party in
Pennsylvania? If there is let him
look up the evidence and be con.
vinced differently. Let him take the
leading papers, which voice the senti.
ment of the people, prior to the May
convention and there he will find how
the people felt on the subject. When
a candidate is unanimously nominated
by reclamation by such men as had a
voice in that convention il don't look
much like bossism, does it, now, can.
