The Gazettes reply to the little
squib in the REpUBLIcAN recently
about the stupidity OF Mr.. 31ahaffey
from drink, is made up of false
statements from beginning to end.
We did not say that Mahaffey was
drunk as the Gazette construes it.
but simply stupid. This, our au-
hority declares is positively true,
Notwithstanding the contrs dictlon
OF the Gazette
First, Streby says "that he made
inquiries Of people of Forks twp
where Mr.. Mahaffey cried sale
Friday Oct. 7th, and all said thai
they did not see any whiskey there.
Well, what docs this signify ? Our
Informant saw him in Dushore and
not in Forks.
Second, "that Cheney belongs to
a clique who has advocated whi.key
and temperance since 'S4 when they
went on Jordan Hill in. Forks twp
and left hottie of whiskey in
certain families for each voter, anf
on Warnurton Hill i'm the same twp
made temperance speech" This
is false. We have never visited
Jordan or Warburton Hill, but onc,
and that wasn't during a camp ign.
This assertion of Slreby's belitt |
the people of Forks twp, in the ex-
treme and we presume some of them
will resent 1t.
Third, he makes break line and
continues on the same strain tha;
we were captain ola ''Kitty Club
t LaPorte and that the organize
tion bo ,9ht beer and whiskey and
had it shipped to LaPorte aud thai
these drinkables were kept in a box
called The "Kit:y." This is all
bosh. There is not one word oi
truth in it. Gu, SIS the old Tom Cat
has scratched Streby recently and
lie has kitty on the brain.
Fourth, "that we forged NJ. }
Lull's signature to letter publish h q
in the REPUBLICAN, This is con.
temptabl> false aud we defy him To
produce copy of the REPUBLICAN
with such letter inserted
in its columns Unless he brings
the proof oi his assertion he must
stand convicted Of making false
statements.

..The Farmers Share.

This was the subject of an adj
dress by Grand Master Brigham,
at the New York State Fair. Among
other excellent things, he said:
sit WAS the farmer who came first
t. this country to establish homes,
to till the ground, to worship God
according to the dictates of their
own conscience The farmers were
the preservers of our country. They
! braved the dangers and had their
full share of the trials Now l be-
lieve it is no more than right that
our farmers Of to. day. should have
their share of tbe profits of their
labor. Farmers are not receiving
their share. Farmers should have
better recognition iii making laws
and directing the affairs of this
Government. There should be
more men from the farm in our leg
islative bodies" These remarks
are worthy of consideration by the
| farmers of Sullivan county in
choosing Representative to Har-
risburg. 1t is estimated that the
farmers comprise so per cent of the
representation and only 20 per cent
Of the wealth, and that they pay
-four times as much taxes for the
amount invested, than any other
class or occupation. Does not this
seem TO demand equalization OF
taxation" And would it not be
