The Ohio Election.

The election in Ohio Tuesday invol-
we'd Governor, Lieutenant Governor,
State Treasurer, Attorney General, two
Supreme Judges, one member Of State
Board of Public Works, and the Legis-
lature that will elect the successor to
John Sherman in the United States
Senate. A vote was also taken upon
four amendments to the Constitution
of the State, three of which relate to
changing the State election from Octo-
Der to November and one to changing
the term of Office for township trustees
The returns indicate the success of the
Republican State ticketby about $4,000
majority and the election of Repub-
lican Legislature. The republican ma
iority is probably not more than half
that given for Blaine last year. A re.
publican state has gone republican and
1t cannot be considered as democra-
tic reverse, though from the general
situation of politics in that state there
was some reason to hope for democratic

nothirg less than the nomination of
the most disreputable of the lot that
they wanted machine rule, machine
methods and all that they imply, in

enterprise and of the Quay pardon

ion and silence" at the head of the
treasury, so as to revive the old system
of plunder in all its ancient perfection.
They had their way, They nomin-
ated Quay in spite OF the avalanche Of
protests, and, to be entirely consistent,
the committee on resolutions set down
heavily and incontinently upon Senator
Emery's mild little anti.discrimination
resolution, thus giving due notice that
the Republican party was formally
committed to railroad monopoly as well
as to official profigacy.
And now what are the people going
TO do about it' When VIM M. Tweed,
with insolence no greater, asked this
question, Samuel ]. Tilden, Charles
O'Conor and the tax payers of New
York, without distinction of party, fur
nished him an unexpected answer.
And now the Independent Republl-
cans of Pennsylvania make answer to
Quay's campaign manager with the
above protest.
They have ample cause for their oct

Why They Protest.

Before the nomination of Quay the
Philadelphia Press and other Repub-
lican newspapers distinctly warned the
party of the probable consequences.
They informed the Ring managers
that self-respecting Republicans, how
ever strong in their partisanship could
not be expected TO vote for a man of
his antecedents and reputation.
They asked, "What are conscientious
Republicans to say in defense, when
men point to the jobbery and corrupt
ion Of the old State Iting,to the shame
less plunder of the state treasury und-
er Kemble, Mackey and Quay, to the
railroad schemes to rob the sinking
fund, and to keep the people in the
shaekles of monopoly, to the Riot Bill
villany, and TO the infamous pardon of
the convicted criminals all of which
are represented by Quay, who is avow-
edly nominated because he does repres-
ent them
This is substantially what was said
by the better class of Republican jour
nails before the nomination. They did
not particularly develop these mon
strous scandals because they were mat
ters of history and general notoriety.
But the old managers of the Treas
ury Ring and the railroad lobby paid
no attention to the Press and its coad-
tutors. They declared that the people
were tired of honesty and economy and
decency in official lite that the MASSES
of the Republican party sighed for a
complete reinstatement OF the Ring

$4,000 For Breach of Promise.
A YOUNG GIRL GETS A VERDICT AGAINST
PENNSYLVANIA SHERIFF OF
SEVENTY.

DusEore is pretty little town
among the Blue Ridge Mountains, in
Sullivan county. For some weeks the
people for miles around have been dis
cussing breach of promise case tried
before the county court. Both parties
are we'll known in Laporte and the ad
jacent towns. One is girl of 23 and
the other is a man of 70, the sheriff of
the county. Miss Arabella Kentner is
a brunette of vivacious manners and
has been considered the belle of La
porte Lewis Zaner, the Sheriff, has
resided in the county for 81 years.
Miss Kentner has resided in Dushore
all her life. After she began to 60 IN
to society Lewis Zsner was very atten
tive to her, aud when his wife died, in
August, 1884, Zaner commenced to
pay her the closest attention and finally
asked her to marry him, promising to
give her $4,000, it is alleged. Miss
Kentner accepted the offer. Zsner
went to Miss Kentner one evening, it
is said, and told her he could not marry
her in Dushore, as he was afraid of the
interference of relatives, but if she
would 20 West he would meet her and
they would be married. He would
give her money to buy wedding clothes
and enough to take her to Detroit, and
be was to follow. Miss Kentner ar,
rived in Detroit, but failed to get any
reply from Zaner, although she wrote
to him several times.
On the stand she told pitiful story
of being left destitute in a strange
city and said she reached home at last
only to find that Lewis Ianer had mar
ried another girl. Miss Kentner inn
mediately sought the counsel of law
yer and the case was brought up before
arbitrators and was brought to
trial on Monday of last week. Miss
Kentner sued Zaner for $4,000 dam
ages. Zaner tried to prove that Miss
Kentner was not of good character,
but hosts of witnesses testified to the
contrary. Miss Kentner's mother il
poor but very respectable. The minis
ter of the church which Miss Kentnei
attended, Rev. g. l.. Burson, gave tes'
timony in the case. Witnesses said
that Zaner had borne a bad reputation

Kentners favor, awarding her 81 900

sylvania predicting dire results to bus
mess and labor if Cleveland was
elected.
At that time all business was de-
pressed, investments Improbable and
labor ill-rewarded as the results of "a
years of Republican misrule, extrava-
gance and corruption.
Cleveland was elected. His admin
istration is barely six months old.
What are the results? Read the testi-
mony of Republican newspapers.
The Lancaster NeD Era says (see
its leading editorial, Sept. Is, 1SS5):
"sIGNs OF BETTER TINES.
'sThe financial circular of Henry
Clews Il Co. for the present month re-
CARDS it as a reasonable and safe con-
clusion that the recent marked i'm
provement in the price of securities be-
tokens general improvement an the
business Of the Metropolis and the
country at large. Judging from ordi-
nary experience such recovery was to
be expected about this time. 1t is true
that the depression following the pan
ic Of 1878 lasted ,tice gears, but it is
to be remembered that the panic of
1878 was one of extraordinary vio-
lence and required an unprecedented
period for the adjustment of its effects,
whilst the recent depression has been
due to less radical arrangements and
therefore needed much briefer period
for its process of repair. Facts, how
ever, are superior to inference, and
they show beyond question pery de.
cided Improvement IN business from
the 81. Laurence to the Gu!f and the
Pacific.
"Messrs. Clews & Co. assure us that
the recovery is apparent in a better de.
maud for products of ecery class, and
is the beginning Of gradual but ec-
identity genuine aduance in prices.
-Ecen the iron trade, aohich has been
most severely depressed and is con-
ceded to be one Of the safest indicators
Of business at large, as non aoorking
on orders that insure employment for
months ahead The reports of COM
mercial travellers to their firms at the
centres of trade indicate general re-
covery of demand and an end of wait
ing for lower prices. p" Alto
getlter, the financial and business out
look is quite encouraging"

said be, ''is superior to al ordinary
coal oils, burns as long again and
makes much better light" He then
proposed to sell township right and
recipe for making the oil for $50,
which would cost me only IA cts per
gallon, or il he furnished me with the
oil 20 cts per gallon which ] could sell
Tor so or GO cts per gallon. Seeing
that someone would certainly buy the
right l offered $25,which he accepted
and the terms were stipulated and clos.
ed. lie gave his name, and Pittston as his
place of manufacture and residence
Aud also the name of druggist in
Philadelphia who kept the ingredients
of said oil. "To introduce this oil"
said be, "keep your lamp burning all
day and evening for two weeks and
call the special attention Of your Gus
toners to its superiority and cheapness"
which | did and at the end of that time
he would furnish me with a supply.
At the end of two weeks persons frsm
all over the township came with cans,
eager for the new oil, but no supply
came, l wrote to him. but received no
answer, wrote again, no answer, then
wrote to the p. M. at Pittston and in
quired whether such a person manu-
featuring certain oil lived at that
place, the p. M wrote and said that he
knew nothing of such person or oil.
l then wrote to the druggist at Phila-
delphia to forward the ingredients nee
cssary for the manufacture of the oil,
and he replied that he did not know of
any such ingredients nor what they
were. Thus you see the result of a
sharp and disgraceful trick.
A similar case occurred in our neigh
borhood not many years ago when a
sharper stopped with an aged and un-
suspecting neighbor and offered a
lottery ticket for SlS which would GER
tainly draw a sewing machine, and in
all probability 1--WE think) an Estey
organ. The ticket was bought, and at
a certain mot distant) date these arti-
cles would be shipped to Berwick in
care of ----. The neighbor sent
man and conveyance after the articles
in question, but when he arrived at
the place of their expected destination
there was neither machine, organ, man,
or anything else of the kind. No one
at Berwick knew of any such person
who had thus misrepresented himself
and deceived and robbed our neighbor,
1t is of the greatest Importance that
every person of honest propensities
keep sharp lookout and avoid these
scamps, thieves and cut throats who
infest the country and occasionally en-
trap the unwary.
The Fair attracted large crowd on
Friday and Saturday. We became
more and more conviced that gambling
should be excluded from put Fairs. If
for nothing else we believe that the
example is demoralizing in the ex-
treme. 1t successfully teaches that a
living can be made without honest
labor, or effort, or without rendering
an equivalent for i'll gotten gain. The
general tendency of the rising gen
Grafton is to evade and shirk labor and
compromise with livelihood on the
most easy terms, whether honorable or
not. The public attention will sooner
or later be forcibly drawn to this fact
by actual necessity, more than as a
mere matter of fact.
