The Republican Meeting.

Every seat in the Court Room was
filed last Wednesday evening at an
early hour, the large audience having
gathered to hear the campaign opened
by Col. D. H. Hastings, of Bellefonte,
the law partner of General James A.
Beaver. The meeting was called to
order by Chairman Shawkey, and
Samuel D. Irwin Esq, was elected
President, with a number of Vice
Presidents from each township. The
Tionesta Brass Band were present,
and at the completion of the orgaui-
zation played lively air. Mr.. Irwin
then expressed his thanks for the hon
or conferred on him. and in a happy
manner introduced the speaker of the
evening, Col. Hastings. The Colonel
is 8 fine looking man and has an
equally fine voice as an orator. His
speech lasted about an hour and a
half, during which the audience we're
very attentive and listened eagerly to
every word that was said. The rec
ords of the Republican and Democrat
ic parties were truthfnlly set forth and
contrasted, much to the disparage.
ment of the latter. His glowing trib-
ute to the gallant General Beaver was
one of the happy points of his speech.
AT the finish of Col. Hastings' speech,
the President introduced Miles w.
Tate Esq, who never fails to please
an audience. He kept the house in q
good humor during his entire speech,
which lasted nearly an hour. Mr..
Tate directed his remarks mainly to
the third party issue. and showed con.
clusively that as the Republican party
had adopted a plank in its platform
to submit q constitutional amendment
to vote of the people, there was nc
further use for separate prohibition
party. Mr.. Tate's address was listen
ed to with marked attention, and re
ceived many rounds of applause.
Lieut.. ..Gov. Stone was loudly call
ed for, but refused to speak. HOwev
er, the few remarks he made eliciteC
eager attention, and we're full o
wholesome truths.
At the close of The speeches thre,
rousing cheers we're given for the tick
ct, and the audience dispersed ami,
the happiest feeling. The meeting
passed off very pleasantly without tn
4lightest jar or interruption in tn
proceedings, and was pronounced o
every hand to be a very successful
one. For the first gun of the can
paign the sound was a good one.
The band deserves praise for th
good music rendered.

We are having fine weather this
week and our farmers seem to be at
work in good earnest, planting pota-
toes, sowing oats, and gardening.
J. l.. Thaxton is very busy waiting
on customers this week.
Miss Matte Parker, of Vervilla,
was visiting her cousin, Matte Swami
last week.
p. M. Myers is improving his farm.
He has recently paled in his garden
anew, and there are many others who
need to follow his example.
w. f. Stubblefeld is still wearing
a neat little smile, and we think his
intentions are to still go a fishing, as
he was seen last Sunday morning on
the fishing ground.
Willie Barnes and Tommie Myers,
two worthy young men from Irving
College, were visiting in our vicinity
last Sunday.
j. II. Knight and A. NJ. Miller re-
turned from trip to Nashville last
week. They report times as being
very dull, but we think they were
joking about the hard times, as we
saw them out last Sunday morning
with a brand new pair Of boots and
a hat.
Some of our young ladies say they
will soon put on mourning if they
don't hear something soon of their
Irving College sportsmen, Of whom
we spoke sometime back. They fear
they have strayed away. Any infor-
nation concerning them will be glad
ly received, and the youngladies will
reward the infOrmer.

fishing last Tuesday and caught a
fine string of very nice fish.

We, with degree of sadness, an
nounce the death of our highly es-
teemed friend, Allen Wilson, who
died at his home at $3.50 a. m. on last
Sunday, in about the nth year of his
age. We simpathize with his con-
sort, who, though feeble, still sur
wives him. Several friends attended
his funeral at Salem, near Liberty,
where he had requested and made
preparations to be inferred.
DIR. f. II. Jones, of Viola, and
Hugh Walling, of McMinnville,
passed one day last week enroute for
Smithville. There must be some
thing more attractive about Smith
vile to the Doctor than the practice
of physic.
The pulpit at Mt. Zion was ably
filled by Elder Preston, of Woodbury.,
on last Sunday. Services will be con-

again, and it fills the heart of the far

There is good inquiry for seed
oats, and no doubt a good acreage
will be put in this spring. Perhaps
there is no crop that pays better for
the labor, especially for the past few
years, as they have not been affected
with rust.
Prof. Evans complimented the
young men highly last Sunday who
had been lecturing our Sunday-school.
We trust that each of them will use
brevity and study to entertain as well

Athens Post The low prices of
produce and labor, the scarcity of
money among the masses, the suffer
ings of the thousands who can find
no employment and the consequent
increaseof crime, are all justly charge
able to the Republican party-in
other words they are the legitimate
fruits of quarter ola century of Re-
publican rule. When the Democrats
went into power, no sane person eX-
pected that these evils, of protracted
growth, with their roots struck deep
into the soil, could be eradicated in a
day, a week, amonth, or even a year.
Yet partisan naturals are continually
shouting "where's the good times you
promised the people during the can
vass ?" as though the results of twenty
years misrule could be wiped out in
moment. Pish.

Northern Snow.

To the Standard.
The last issue of the STANDARD
reached me today, and it seems quite
strange to us who live in Ashtabula
county, Ohio, where snow is one foot
deep today on our land and most mag
nificent sleighing, with mercury way
below zero almost every morning, to
hear you talk of spring planting in
McMinnville. Ny old farmer down
there also writes me to come imme-
diately and help make garden, SOW
oats and plant corn.
Here we are making more extern
sive preparations than ever for manu-
featuring maple sugar. l presume
there will be half a million maple
trees tapped in this county alone for
maple sugar and syrup. The business
is very profitable for farmers, as we
get from rs cents to $1.0O per gallon
for it here at home, and it is the most
delicious sweet the world knows
when freshly made from the trees in
early spring. Later in the season, as
soon as warm weather strikes us, the
sap will soon begin to sour little in
the buckets, and from that time on
no more first-class molasses is made.
Instead of nice, clear, white color,
almost equal to the best box honey,
it will become red or dark colored
and strong favored, no matter how
nice your arrangements may be for
cooking it. | have manufactured
and sold in this place fully 1000 tin
sap buckets per year for over thirty
years, and we are very busy at that
kind of work in our factory today.
These heavy tin II quart buckets cost
now only SlS per hundred and the
little round tin spout, { of an inch in
diameter and 2! inches long, that we
put in the tree to conduct the sap
from the tree to the bucket, and also
hang the bucket on it, cost only one
C ent apiece. With this cheap outfit
the old dirty sap troughs or wooden
buckets are no longer used here, and
the quality of our sugar and molases
is perfection itself.
have a sap brush on my home
farm here, and we use 400 tin sap
buckets. We are all ready to COM
mence making sugar as soon as it be-
gins to thaw. Last year our best part
of the season was the first two weeks
OF April, but usually it is all made in
the month of March, or nearly so.
Two weeks from today l hope to
be in McMinnville to superintend my
spring seeding on my farm there, and
then return to Ohio the latter part of
March before we commence spring
work up here. Last year, the Goth of
April was the first day we could
make an attempt to do outdoor farm
work, as it was fair sleighing up here
the week before.
Wheat looks splendid with US when
the snow goes off so we can see it.
Prices for farm produce are about
the same as you quote every week.
Corn per bushel, As; wheat, 80; oats,
40: patatoes, 40; apples, 40; eggs per
dozen 2Oc; good butter 2Oc per pound;
best hay, delivered, per ton, $40. So
you see we keep nearly even with
you. 1t interests me to watch the
two places every week.
