CONGRESS.

Why should the people Of Clearlield
county elect John Patton to Congress ,
What has he ever done to promote
the interests, the welfare, or the pros
perty OF the people of the county ? He
has been essentially personal and selfish
in all his business movements from the
beginning Of his career. Whilst Il mer-
chant and lumberman furnishing sup
plies to the people of the county, his
universal rule was TO enter up Judge
mentS for advances and he sold out
more people in his mercantile career
| than any other man in the county.
When the National Bank system went
into operation, and was profitable, he
sold his real estate, Except his home
property and invested his means in II
National bank, and it was his boast
that it made more money than anyNat-
ional bank of its capital in the state.
He paid no taxes on ali the large a.
mount of capital he had invested in
that. When government bonds paid Il
| lower rate ot interest, and when the
| laws held National banks down to siX
per cent. interest he closed out the Ma
| tional bank, ald converted it INTO Il
private bank, where Il heavier rate of
interest, and easier "shaylng" could be
carried on. For ten years past, until
| this year, he returned no money at in
| tereSt for taxation. This year, under
compusion OF law. he returns $50, 900.
lie owns no real estate upon which
taxes are paid except in his own i'm
mediate locality, and the total assess
ment of his property for 1885 was less
than $4,000. He is said to be, and his
| frianAs hnnGt thnt hA = a pNillinnuire
Where is his capital inyestedi? How
many railroads has lie helped TO build
in Clearfield county ? Where has he
| except in the short line from Clearlield
to Curwensville ? How much money
| has he invested III cOllierieS How
much in lirebrick works ? How much
| in lumber establishments !? How many
men does he employ in work of any
| character ? He has 20 money invested
in such enterprises and the total of his
employees, outside of his bank, is one
man. The employment of his capital
| consists in loaning money at Il high
