UNIoNToWN.

| Columbus Day was celebrated jointly by the
Uniontown and Grade schools in the church al
Bannock, under the charge of the teachers, Cliff
Nichols of the Grade. and j. q. Taggart of the
UniOntown schools. The school of this place
went down in wagons, decorated with flags, and
were met and were escorted TO the church by the
Grade school. The exercises of the afternoon
consisted of prayer, patriotic song, recitatiOns
and addresses. There were thirty-seven recita
tions by the pupils, addresses by Cliff Nichols
Rev. McMichael, Capt, Lee and Rev. Hackett
The church was deliberately decorated. j. G.
Taggart read the proclamation, and presided over
the meeting in a most happy manner. The audi
ence at closing arose and sang with the schools
America. The pupils then passed out, followed
by the audience. Then arranging themselves in
front of handsome flag, which fOated from the
tower, the form was read by j. G. Taggart, ~
pledge allegiance" etc., and three cheers for the
flag were given with hearty good will, thus closing
the exercises Of the day. The occasion was one
worthy of special mention. The teachers and
pupils are worthy of the highest cOmmendatiOn,
and the large audience assembled were well ell
tertained, and spoke very highly of the exercies

DEMOCRACY was ever the champion
OF reeklessness and oppression, but the
party platform this year declares for
measures more perilous to the nations
safety than ever before in the dark his
tory of the organization. 1t is opposed
to every sound industry of the country,
to every established business, and
threatens every man, woman and child
who earns his bread by the sweat of his
face, the cunning of his hand, or the
toll of his mind. 1t aims to break down
the wall of protection, which the wis
dom of experience has built around the
country's interests. Its protestations of
friendship for the poor workingman are
the hollowest mockery, and the vilest
hypocrisy ever inspired by the parent of
evil. 1t would, it says, make things
cheap for the consumer. 1t would al
low the European tailor to sell cheap
er coat to the American iron worker,
and the European iron worker to sell
cheaper wares to the American tailor
and wool grower. 1t would cheaper
the products of labor to laborers by
closing up their business and sending
them to the soil for their subsistence.
With such absurdities it appeals to the
workingman for support. But owing
to the high place in which Protection
has placed him, the American worker is
not to be caught by snch brainless chaff.
He is not an idiot or spiritless pauper.

THE exercise of the suffrage is the
duty of an American. The right of the
suffrage is the last step in the history OF
mans enfranchisement. Let no Repub,
lican forget this, and let him not for
get either that he is confronted by two
parties-his own, offering him a stain
less record of wise measures and effect
i've administration, the other offering
him uncertainty, doubt, business panic
and industrial ruin, and by two men
Benjamin Harrison, with story of
honor on the nations fields of battle,
and honesty, wisdom and capacity in
the nations civic service; the other a
cowardly sneak from the duties of war,
vetoer of pension bills, recreant to ev-
cry feeling of patriotism, with record
of incapacity in office, and the herald of
principles utterly subversive of the
prosperity of the United States.

GROVER CLEVELAND is completely
out of sympathy with the soldiers of the
country. He believes in belittling and
sneering at their work and sacrifices.
He not only vetoed 524 pension claims,
where benjamin Harrison vetoed not one,
but he added singing insult to injury by
sneering at the just claims of old veter-
ans, whom he of all men ought to re-
spect and esteem for doing work in
which he was too cowardly to partici-
pate. On vetoinga a righteous claim for
a pension he said, "the ingenuity devel-
oped in the constant and persistent at
tacks upon the public treasury by those
claiming pensions, and the increase of
those already granted, is exhibited in
bold relief by this attempt to include
sore eyes among the results of diarrhea." :"
These contemplate words came from a
man whom an accident placed in the
chair of the President of the United
States, of poor man torn by shot and
shell, and racked by disease contracted
in the beastly prisons of Cleveland's
Southern supporters, and asking from
the government a pittance to support
the remnant of his life in peace, he
spoke these mean, sordid and unpatriot-
ic words, "Whatever else may be said of
this claimants achievements during his
short military career, it must be con-
ceded that he accumulated great deal
of disability"

DURING my term of service in the
army l contracted chronic diarrh9a," !"
says A. E. Bending, of Halsey, Oregon.
"Since then l have used great amount
of medicine, but when found any that
would give me relief they would injure
my stomach, until Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhea Remedy was
brought into my notice. l used it and
will say it is tn only remedy that gave
me permanent relief and no bad results
follow" For sale by Patterson & Sons,

IT is inconceivable how any sane cit
izen can champion the cause of wildcat
money. Between 1843 and 1860, over
fifteen hundred banks went into bank
ruptcy, many of their notes continuing
to circulate, and becoming total loss
to the final holder. The State bank
crash of 1887 swept away one billion
dollars, and within two years following
$4,000 persons took advantage of the
bankrupt act, and not less than $4,000
others compromised with their creditors.
Do we want return to such state of
affairs?

THE "apathetic feeling" among voters
generally, which was the fear of Re-
publicans, and the hope of Democrats,
Is found to have no existence in fact.
The registration in the Republican cities
of Cleveland and Cincinnati, is the
largest ever known, and most of the
gain is in Republican wards. The same
condition prevails the State over, wher-
ever the registration law prevails.
We've got 'em again, sure.

If the consumer and not the importer
pays the tariff on imported goods, why
is all England down on the Mckinley
billS Why don't the English manufact-
urer go on selling to Americans, and
let them pay the tax? The trouble is
that the Englishman who sells goods in
this country is the one that pays the tax
in spite of his protestations to the con-
trary, made for personal gain.

Occasionally on Saturday nights Sc

somebody out of bis place of business.
The nature Of Seorium's rum is such
that it makes a man too drunk to be
about Misplace about time his money
is gone, and then comes the throwing
out exhibition.
Last Saturday night week this big
mixer of drinks threw man out, and
the unfortunate victim was rendered
unconscious and for time it was feared
seriously hurt. Saturday night Dubois
gathered on to another victim, but this
wiry young man held on to Heorium
and when the victim went out, Du Bois
came too. Officer Garrison had to go
down and disperss the gang.
Some day Mr.. Dubois will pick out
the wrong man and the throwing out
game will be suddenly adjourned
while Dubois takes we'll deserved
thrashing. Then the evicting business
will be stopped.
