PARIS, March 10. The quarters Of the city
which are most largely occupied by workingmen
were placarded last night with incendiary ap-
peals to the unemployed. They were urged to
rise up in their might and by supreme effort
annihilate the bourgeoise.
The government has decided to prosecute

men. and NJ Quercy, the editor of a Socialist
newspaper, for having melted the striking iroH-

No official information can be got from the

Various reports have been sent abroad that

there has not been the slightest interference

SOLOMON FITZGERALD,

the unanimous endorsement of the

County Treasurer, is perhaps not so
we'll known all over the county, but
in and about his home no man is more
popular and highly spoken of than he,

that would or could say aught against
his reputation as a man Of probity
and strict honesty. Mr.. Fitzgerald is
not a wealthy man, but makes his liv.

not an easy matter either, for he lost

OF our candidate for Congress,
JAMES T. MAFFETT,
it is almost needless to say anything.
It is conceded all over the district
that a purer, more upright, capable
Christian gentleman could not have
been found in the five counties. In
his own home and county no man is
more highly esteemed by men of all
political shades and opinions than he,
and Democrats are as ready to admit
this as Republicans are to claim it.
They say that with Mr.. Maffett in
Congress from the 25th district the
people will have a representative
whose hands are clean from every.
thing that bears the slightest resem.
lblance to crookedness.
CHARLES A. RANDALL,
whom the Republicans of Forest
county have honored with the nomi-
nation for Assembly, is one of our
best known and most highly respected
citizens. For over nineteen years he
has been resident among us, and
during all those years he has retained
the good opinions of our people to a
wonderful degree. In 1878 the people
elected him to the responsible position
of Sheriff, which office be filed with
great credit to himself and the entire
