fall. See to it, Republicans.
The handsome new M. E. Church
at Nebraska was appropriately dedi.
Gated on Sabbath morning last. A
very large congregation was present,
aud the ceremonies we're interesting and
impressive throughout. The new edi.
fee is one of the prettiest and best ap.
pointed in this part of the State.
"A new line of mems pantaloons
just opened at Lawrence & Smear
baugh's, that are guaranteed to suit
both as to quality and price. See
them. 2t.
Census returns from the 10th
Census District, which includes Butler,
Crawford, Erie, Forest, Lawrence,
Mercer, Venango and Warren coun.
ties, shows q population of 422,000.
The same counties in 1880 had a pop.
ulation of 361 $40, showing a net gain
of 61 500 during the last 10 years.
The Judicial conference at War.
rem spent nearly three days more in
fruitless balloting last week, and then
adjourned to meet in Tionesta on
Tuesday, Sept. I'd. The conference
agreed to take ten ballots at that time,
and if no nomination was made then
the conference is to adjourn sine die.
The executors of the estate of the
late Mrs. Thomas, have had bills
printed announcing the sale Of several
articles of household use, to take place
on Friday next, 22d inst, at 10
o'clock a. m, at her late residence.
Among other things there will be
three cows sold. Remember the date.
More interest is taken each year
in education. Parents can do no
greater thing for their children than
to educate them. The State Normal
School at Clarion affords chance to
the people of adjoining counties to
educate their children at small ex.
pense when compared with the cost Of
sending them to distant schools.
1t seems that many new organi.
cations, under high sounding names,
are being pushed among the farmers.
The "organizers" get so much for each
local organization effected, and a few
muck .mucks get the farmers hard
earned dollars while political dema.
gogues, as lecturers, get fat salaries.
Farmers should investigate these or.
ders before being initiated. ."-Frank,

-Tionesta has taken on a new in.
dustry-the manufacture of cigars
Messrs. Kirchartz & Whitemau having
started factory in the Kepler build
ing, room next to Fulton's harness
shop. Mr.. kirchartz is an experienced
workman, capable Of turning out the
best grades of cigars, and if honest
goods aud strict attention to business
count for anything the new firm will
make it 60 in Tionesta. The enter
prise has our best wishes for success,
and We hope will be duly appreciated
and encouraged by our citizens.
Excellent work is now being done
on the road between Tionesta and
Nebraska, under the direction of Mr..
I. d. Collins, whose engineering skill
is we'll known. 1t is the intention to
cut down all the little "pi,ches" and
straighten up the sharp curves as
much as possible, widening the bed,
and in fact to convert the old creek
road into veritable boulevard. Mr..
G. stands the bulk of the expense of
this Improvement, and being far the
most interested in the scheme can be
depended upon to make good job oft.
Judge Harry White, while hold.
ing court at Greensburg recently de.
cided that the property holders along
public streets were not liable for ex-
pense incurred by the paving and i'm
proving of the streets. This decision
will attract considerable attention,
doubtless, inasmuch as boroughs have
been accustomed to require property
holders to pay for such improvements.
If the decision is affirmed by the
Supreme Court there is endless trouble
ahead for the boroughs of the State.
To improve the streets then will mean
more taxes, and increased taxation
will likely raise storm of indigna.
