VIII LlkeIeiy Repeat.

History is very likely to repeat itself in
the so-calIed Independent Republican move
m mt now so noisiiy engineered in this State
for the benefit of ex Governor Paitison. Its
inspiration. life and noise con e wholly from
soured and disappointci men hike Wharton
Barker. Mapes, Emery, Ruisn, Sam Loseh,
Sam Dick. ex .Supt Wickersham, ETC., every
one smarting under some personal grievance,
and now playing into the hands of the
enemy, aud seeking the destruction of the
party that has heretofore honored them with
its offices and honors, and made them all
that they are or ever have been in political
life. Revolutions to be successfui, must
have high, honorable and patriotic motives
to propei them, and not merely those OF
sordid, selfish and disappointed character.
Eighteen years ago, in the National cam
paign of -, when Sumner, Chase, Greeley.
TrumbuIl. Gratz Brown, Schu'z, Mcclure,
Curtin, etc, kicked up their heels, and or
ganized the revolt against the re election of
Gen. Grant. the country fairly held its breath
on account of the formidable array of emil
nent and distinguished kickers, and looked
for political upheayal the like of which
had never been seen or heard of And yet,
when the motives aciuating the revolt. came
to be analysed, and it was found that every
one was nursing some private grievance Or
other, the movement weakened, and finally
collapsed, With the result, that the ''silent
soldier" was reelected by the largest popular
and electoral msjority ever given to any can
didate for President. The revolt now on.
and fostered and guided by Emery, Mapes,
Losch & Co., will not unlikely have an end
ing similar TO the one noted above when the
ballots come to be counted in November.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
PURE

NO" says the mugwump, who is almost
invariably a Free-trader, "Pattison was
elected in 50 and Blaine carried the State in
's4" Our answer is that If Beaver had been
elected in 81 all the election vilisinies usual
10 New York could not have counted out
Blaine in "a, and so now, with Delamater
and the entire State ticket elected. the safety
of the Mckinley bill is assured for at least 8
decade.
SOME THINGS THAT CAN BE DONE.
The Republican majority can be main
tanned in both Houses OF Congress Re-
publican President can be safely elected in
1892, and the best hopes of the party real
lied. A break in Pennsylvania may mean
the loss of all, and the man who permits
personal prejudices engendered in many in
stances by paid agents, in others by those
who would ask the world TO shoulder their
ievenges, commits folly too great for COM
prehension. This folly will not find the
ignorance upon which it must feed within
the ranks OF one great party, and one which
coin shamelessly traduced as baboon !;
Grant denominaied butcher, Logan an ig-
noramus, Garfield a bribe taker, and so on
through catalogue too long and too nasty
TO command decent consideration.
The ISLANDERS against our chief standard
bearers all dead, all dispoved, are no longer
worthy of notice. Let US remand them to
the past aad stamp them into the dirt from
which they sprang and where they belong,
and let US thus stamp all future lies, for to
our knowledge more are on the way. Let
us face the enemy without fear and meet
their invectiyes with fresh assault, and push
on to victory like unto that given 10 Hart
ranft in -, to Hoyt in '7s, and to Beaver in
's6, when similarly assaulted, and with cour-
ageous purpose and ever closing ranks we
can and will do even better

As will be seen by reference to the ac-
ton Of the Conference, published in an
other column, n. Il. Critchfeld has been
nominated as the Republican candidate
for Senator in this district. The confer
cnce was an exceedingly amicable one,
and the nomination was concurred in
and heartily ratified by the opposing
candidates, who were ali present at the
final determination OF the contest. Mr..
Critchfield is too well known throughout
this county to require from US a single
word of personal commendation. This
is the third time he has been selected for
important public position, having been
elected County Superintendent of Public
Schools and Prothonotary Of the county.
His present nomination is equivalent to
an election in this strong Republican dis
trie. After full, fair canvass the Repub-
licans of this county selected him as their
candidate, and that selection has been
concurrel in by the representatives Of
the party in the district, who, apart from
his personal merits, conceded the nomi-
nation as due this county, in accordance
with the rule of rotation which has been
adhered to for a number of years. As
said before, his election is an assured fact,
but we bespelk for him full and hearty
support. Let all personal Animosities, if
there be any, be laid aside, and let US all
uphold his hands with foil and solid
vote His duties will be very important;
be win have it in his power TO do much
in the intere7is of the people Of this dis
trict, and aid and backing at home viii
give him strength and influence in the
councils of the State.

Tired of MormonIsm.

CHAMRERsBURG, October 16.-There was
glad home coming of fifteen people to Quin-
cy township yesterday. A year ago eight
persons, with seven children, left Tomstown
for Utah. They had imbibed the doctrines
of the Mormons from missionaries who had
visited their homes, and believed that the
Mormon religion and the Mormon country
would speedily better their spiritual and
physical beings. They sold at a sacrifice all
their property in this county and went to
Utah.
Stephen McFerren was the leader and
with him went his family and his friends.
Yesterday Mr. McFerren led his little band
Of followers back TO Tomstown, poorer in
every way than when they had left Quincy
township, but determined never more to
leave ii at the instigation of Mormon mis-
sionaries. In Utah they were assigned to a
home in a valley between mountains so
high that the sun shone upon their dwell
ing but four hours in day.

As the day Of election approaches, the
boasting of our opponents increases, and
the most extravagant claims are being
put forth in behalf OF Mr.. PattisOn. 1t
has always been thus with our friends,
the enemy. Brag and bluster goes a
great way with them, but we have never
known It in any way to split the Repub-
liean party, or even psrceptibly affect its
vote. With our splendid majority in this
State, it looks like the heighth of folly
to pay attention to the reckless claims Of
the adversary. In our judgment they
are not intended for any other purpose
than to bolster up the weakened and
ignorant brethren Of their own faith
People Of any sense viii tire Of hutting
their heads g. Asinst a stone wall. and our
Democratic friends have 30 long and so
fruitlessly tried the experiment that it
requires good deal Of faith and a vast
deal Of shouting and encouragement TO
induce them to try it once more, with
the hope of upturniug or preaching the
wall. We all remember with what wry
face the nomination Of Pattison was re-
ceived, and how the old, hqrd-sheli Dem
ocrats shut their teeth and muttered
"cuss words; how Wallace, their leader,
hied him across the seas, and how Patti
son and Black, that incongruous pair,
who heretofore had pulled eontrarywise
in the same yoke, looked at each other
with blood in their eyes, and Kerr, a
heretofore Wallace man, was ruthlessly
slaughtered for Congress for becoming
chairm IN Of the State Committee. PART
discipline, however, was soon brouglt
into action the command was given %
'fall inn Wallace Was called back FROM,
Europe to make perfunctory speech q
show that he was in line, and then re-
tired on the plea of i'll health. PAttison
and Black were sent together 10 traverse
the State. "Claim everything" was the
order, and the campaign began. And
what a campaign 1t can be compared
to nothing else than an old time Chinese
battle, which consisted principally in
beating huge gongs and throwing stink
pots" If the enemy was not scared into
running by the frightful noise or killed
BY the dreadful stink, the army retired
in good order, repaired their gongs and
refiIled their pots, and awaited for an
other campaign.
So il is to-day with the Democrats
They are noisily and energetically beat
ing their gongs and casting their stink
pots" into onr camp, and SO they viii
continue to do until the fourth day Of
November, when they will retire dis
mayed at their dismal failure, and COM

of warfare for use in the next campaign.

Do the Republicans Of Somerset county
know that a quiet, sneaking attempt Is be-
ing made to steal from them their prestige
and their power7 Do they know that
certain professed Republicans have enlist
ed in the Pattison ranks and are quietly
doing everything in their power to reduce
the majority for our State ticket? IL
they do not, We can assure them that
undoubtedly these things are true. Pat
tison campaign literature is being indus
triously circulated, not only from the
headquarters of that gentleman, but by
certain disgruntled, so-called Republicans
in our midst. We caution all good Re-
publicans against this stealthy and un-
manly warfare. There is no claim now,
as there was in 1882, when John Stewart
was supported by many Republicans,
that they were sustaining good Repub-
lican, although that support indirectly
led to Pattison's election. Now the bald
attempt is being made TO influence Re-
publicans to vote directly for Pattison,
the regularly nominated Democratic can
didate.
We ask Republicans, one and all, to
ms above the petty ISLANDERS that have
as usual been thrust into this campaign,
and stand by the principles and the can
didates of their party. Let all personal
animosities and chickering's cease; let per
sonal preferences for the time being be
laid aside, and let all heartily unite in
cordial support of our State, district and
county ticket. There is too much at
stake now too much that is dear to
every true Republican heart, TO be sacri-
feed on the altar of personal spite and
spleen. On the election Of State Sena-
tor and of Representatives depends the
election of a United States Senator. Our
entire county ticket is secure, but 1t
should be remembered that the scratch
ing Of any single candidate, or worse
still, the idea that he may be defeated,
will unfavorably affect the entire ticket,
and may lead to disaster and permanent
" shake our party organization on which
so much depends. As with an army in
the field, struggling and desertion is
curse to organization. The true soldier
always rallies to the standard when the
fight is on This battle is for an empire,
for the rightof the Republican party to
hold and rule what it has won in fair
battle. No true party man, no man
worthy the name of Republican, no fair,
manly man viii desert the standard and
20 over TO the enemy at the solicitation
of few sore-head politicians who place
self before principles and party. We
appeal to every and all Republicans to
rally to the standard which was planted
in the fore front by Abraham Lincoln.

SENATOR DELAMATER is called the Little
Mascot by his neighbors and friends in
Meadville, and it seems 10 be peculiar
ly appropriate designation. All attempts
to make it appear that he is not popular
at home, and there is large Republican
detection in Crawford county, have brok-
en- down. These efforts have been ac-
lively employed by the Democrats for
some time, but every statement made
goes TO pieces as soon as little light is
turned on it. The situation in Crawford
county promises an overwhelming major
ity for the Little Mascot among the peo-
pie who know him best.

to fear, that the professional lndepend-
