were they that the man from the Gas City
could fulfill his contract that they placed some

q record-breal1er as Banker. Those en-
gagged in the plan, however, IL there

and the Appropriations.
rsPRc1AL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.I
GREENsBURG, July THE farmers OF the
county are making arrangements to institute
a vigorous kick against certain things which
they think are hurtful to their interests The
Derry Grange, one of the largest in the county,
at meeting yesterday discussed fully the laws
of the State regulating taxation, and they
agreed that the owners of real estate were COM
PEELED to pay about six times as much tax as
the owners Of corporate property of the same
value. In view of these facts the tolloWlng
zesalution was adopted:
"Resolved, That it is the sense of the members
OF this Grange that they shall In the future
support only those candidates for the Legisa-
ture who will pledge themselves IN the public
press to support all measures that Will reduce
the rate of taxation; that they will vote and use
all their influence to bring about decrease OF
he enormous salaries of all public officials;
that they will vote against the robberies and
stealIngs commonly called appropriations;
hat we view with disfavor any man of either
political party while entering upon his duties as
a representative to accept free railroad pass,
and thereby becoming the political property of
a great and powerful corporation"
Other oranges throughout the county will
pass upon these subjects.

Huns Consent to Answer Census Questions
When Confronted With Jail Warrants.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.l
NoRRIsTowN, July 7.-Several arrests have
been made of a number of Hungarians along
the line of the cutoff branch of the Pennsyl-
vania road for their absolute refusal to answer
the questions of the census enumerator. The
hearings took place this morning at 10 o'clock,
and eight arrests were ordered at once. The
Hungarians seem to imagine the census is a
scheme to get them out of the country, and re-
fuse absolutely to answer any and all of the
questions.
Trouble has been experienced in East White
marsh, Upper Dublin, Slatington and South
Bethlehem. At the latter place four arrests
we're made, boarding house mistresses and
bosses were arrested, and only consented to
answer the questions when confronted with q
warrant for iail.

A Mess in CIOthinq.

At this time of the year
manufacturers try to push off
goods that particular stores
wouldn't take. They get the
best prices they can, and let
goods 60. They tempt stores
to buy them-for a price.
1t makes a mess of selling
clothing. It's expected peo-
pie will buy solely because the
prices sound small. They
injure buyer and seller.
We have our own make
only. Always a solid and
well-known value in that. We
don't have time nor desire to
help clothing we don't know
to get sold. Our own we'll
guarantee: for high quality
low price.
Broken lots and lower prices
through July.
A full line of Thin Goods:
attractive prices.
Merchant tailoring: best
facilities: 2, 900 styles of goods.
