every way as great an advantage to the
community as to ourselves. To insure
success, the people Of our patroniz'ng
territory should give us their support to
the extent of subscription at least.
We propose to give those who are not
already subscribers, personal invita-
tion to become such at an early day.
Our business men not only owe sub
scription, but very liberal advertising
patronage, not simply on account of
their obligation TO sustain home paper,
but because 1t is one of the conditions
Of business success. The man who
advertises literally and persistently,
(other things being equaD has never yet
failed to build up prosperous business.
Courage and faith in printers ink, is
hound 10 win, but timid, hesitating
method, that advertises sparingly be-
cause it cannot be seen that every dol
lar invested, has been returned, is little
better than waste Of money and effort.
We think we do not exaggerate when we
say that few towns doing the amount Of
business, advertise so little as Yelling
ton. A radical change could be made
in this particular, with profit to the busi-
ness interests Of the town, rs well as
our own.
Other phases of this subject should be
presented in this connection, but we are
compelled for want of room, to defer it
until another time.

formation of the foreman, with the result
as stated. So much for the explanation.
1t was simply one of those blunders or
oversights liable to occur with the best Of
people, and for which we do not feel
especially guilty--nor was the printer
of an unpardonable sin. We don't
mean to do such things on purpose,
and very much regret that it should
have occurred, to disappoint the ladies of
the church.
But now we have little fault to find
with those persons, ladies, who finding the
notice left out, forthwith concluded that it
was done because the Methodist's had a
social on the same evening, and enlarging
and getting more definite and positive, as
the story travelled, it was asserted
that we positively refused to pub
lish il because the M. E. church
had similar gathering appointed
for the same evenings. After the
explanations made, it is not worth while
to enter up denial Of this charge. 1t
would be charitable to think that but one
or two had so poor an opinion OF us, as to
suppose we would act so foolishly We

An Explanation.

Some over two weeks ago, a lady of the
Congregational church called with an an
nouncement of social, TO take place, that
or the following week, and asked If we
could make room for il. We assured her
we could, and sent II up TO the foreman Of
the Office Later, another called with an
announcement Of something similar 20
take place in the same church, and not
remembering the date Of the first, our
thought was that 1t was another announce
ment Of the same thing but in answer TO
our question, were told that II was not, and
we promptly sent that up stairs The
foreman glanclng at them hastily, and not
noticing the difference in dates, concluded
as we did, that they were two notices OF
the same thing, and told the compositor
to use but one. We knew nor heard moth
ing Of It until the paper was printed and
in the handsof ourTeaders.
Afier day or two, some one inquired
why the first notice did not appear. We

DI0 LEWIS could not believe the Hon.
j. B. Finch was in earnest when he asked
that a representative of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union, and one
from the State Brewers or the Liquor
Dealers Protective Association, be ap-
pointed to sit on the platform, the one to
open, and the other to close the exercises
with prayer, on the occasions when these
gentlemen should debate the question of
Prohibition. AS Finch speaks in the
interests of the great organization con-
tending for Prohibition, it was fair that
Dio Lewis be placed where he belongs,
among the only organized bodies who
would dare assume to be against them.
II would certainly be interesting to be
present when the representative from the
State Brewers or other association of
liquor dealers prayed, and hear to whom
he addressed his petition and what he
would say.

The UNPARALLELED breadth and solid.

who are lobbying at Washington, to get
an extension of the bonded period on the
70,O000 900 gallons Of whisky on which
taxes are due, ought 10 attract the atten-
ton of taxpayers in general. The people
at large who are not interested, either in
whisky-making or iwhiskey-d drinking, ex-
cept as il affects others, cannot be sup
posed TO sympathize heartily with the EN-.
barassments that beset the distillers or
holdersIof whisky, which last must be sold
before the tax can be paid. II so many
want into the dairy business as to make a
serious over-production of butter and
cheese. or If wheatraising became so
general as TO glut the market with grain

take the tax off from farm lands so as to
help the farmers out OF the results of their
folly. Why Congress should be especially
tender of the most wicked and mischievous
industry that exists, no one except those
directly interested in the liquor business
can at all understand.

condemn, as witness, the following
of recent date from the New Orleans
Picayune, one Of the Oldest Democratic
papers in Louisiana;
"Good and gallant men have been shot
down like dogs, because they have dared
to assert the rights Of themselves and
their neighbors. The Democratic party
must guarantee the freedom and safety
of the exercise of the right of suffrage,
or else it will forfeit all claim to the
name 1t bears, and will inevitably lose
the confidence and support of the peo-
ple."
The unprovoked political murders
committed in Virginia, South Carolina,
Georgia and Kentucky, in the last few
months, are disgrace to the civiliza-
tion of this age, but these are only a
foretaste of what we shall have when
the next great national campaign is fully
upon US.
Republicans have divine mission to
perform in fighting party that secures
its sscendancy by such methods, and

families from town and vicinity have visi

when the weather was extremely hot,
and in the evening return home, but
never to stay over night. Occasionally
some families FROM the city would spend
a few days at the hotel. This year about
rs one and two storied tents have been
erected on the beach and families
have occupied them. They speak

the tents has had the effect Of drawing
large crowds from town every afternoon,
when the weather was propitious. This

These tents will no doubt, give way, in
time, to COTTAGES. There is no reason
why the hammock should not become

osUIoIDE WHILE INSANE"
Daniel ReRrdom Kills Himself I'm
the New CASTLE Jail.

The prisoner who committed suicide in
the New Castle jail Tuesday after
noon, was Daniel Reardon. He and
William Begley occupied cell No. 7, In
the lower tier. When the fatal deed was
perpetrated, Begley was standing at his
cell grating, talking to Henry X. Mcaregor,
. prisoner who was in the corridor.
Reardon, who has been low-spirited snd
morose for some time, was seated on
his mattress. Suddenly q sound like
water rushing from q hydrant was
heard and Begley, who turned around to
ascertain the cause Of the noise, was
shocked to see q stream Of blood squirting
apparently from Rsardon's mouth ACROSS
the cell. Begley lifted Reardon, and
McGregor hastily summoned assistance.
Warden Hsnoe responded to the call, but
when he reached the cell the suicide was
just breathing hiC last, having lived
about two minutes. As stated yester-
day, death was produced by the victim
cutting his throat with razor.
Coroner Smith, who was immediately
notified, went to New Castle during the
afternoon and held an inquest. The YER
dict of the Jury WAS ''suioide while tenn
porsrily insane" After the inquest was
over, Undertaken Palmer brought the
corpse to this city. II 1t is not claimed
by friends 1t will be buried In the potter's
field.
Reardon was about 48 years old, and
section boss ON the B. & P. railroad. At
the last term Of court he was charged
with an assault aud battery on Dennis
Lynch, with intent to commit murder. he
pleaded guilty Of assault through his
counsel, Willard Salisbury, Jr. Esq, and
the plea was accepted. The assault was
committed January 9th, near the
Columbia Inn. He was sentenced to pay
the costs Of prosecution and fine Of $50,
and to undergo an imprisonment Of nine
months from the date Of the assault.

The charge being made and denied that

ten to concerning his action in 1876 and
asked pointedly whether he and his par.
tisans Of Tammany Hall intended to give
their support and influence to the Demo-
cratic nominees in 1884 The following
ia his reply, published in the local paper
this morning:
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y, Aug. 6, 1884
My Dear Sir: Yours of the I'd inst. at hand.
In reply, desire to inform you that have
read your letter carefully and noted the
points which yeu have made and the question
which you PROFOUND, and which you and
those in the state in which you reside are
anxious should be answered. First, that 1
voted against Tilden and Hendricks in 1876.
This is untrue. Myself and those associated
with me did our very best to elect Messrs.
Tilden and Hendricks and what occurred
afterward could not be laid to us. The
position of our party in the county and state
at present stands in this way The laboring
class, on whom we relied mainly for support, are
now pronounced against Gov. Cleveland, and
it will be difficult for us to convince them that
their condition would not be improved by the
election of the opponent OF this gentleman.
We will do what can be done to convince
these people, and hope and expect to be
comparatively successful Let me add that
these accusations that are made against my
self and the organization to which belong
have originated with and are the emanations
Of the brains Of those whose prejudices and
dislike of our organization are such that they
are at all times incorporating us, in order
to create false impressions in other parts OF
the country. Tammany Hall has been as
faithful to the Democratic party as the needle
to the north pole, although these vilificationa
which have taken place from time to time
have given, no doubt, different impression.
l am yours, very respectfully,
JOHN KELLY.
