comment in regard to the position
of ex-President Harrison in con,
nection with the next Presidential
nomination by the Republican party
1t has been stated that friends OF
Mr., Harrison have given out word
that he will not be a candidate for
that nomination, This may be true,
but he has not personally made any
such announcement through the
press, and until he does 90 it is fair
to presume that he would take the
nomination providing the party
deems him the most available stand>
ard bearer TO lead them to victory in
1896.

The end of the world announced
by the German weather prophet,
Dr.. Falb, to take place in 1896, has
been postponed by the doctor owing
to unexpected obstacles, until Nov.
l3, 1899, between 3 and o'clock in
tue evening. In this announcement
Falb agrees with Brother Philippe
Olivarius, of the Citeux cloister 10
France. According to manuscript
written in 1544, left by the monk,
the city of Paris is to be destroyed
in 1896, and the en,l of the world is
to take place in 1899. 1t is strange
that these little events are never
pulled Off according to the schedule.

The people of sullivan county are

The people of Sullivan county are
fortunate in their candidates THIS
year of grace-l895. The Office OF
Sheriff is an important one, and
should be filed by business man
a man who has the entire confidence
of the community in which he resides
and who is favorably known for his
good citizenship the county over.
S1ch a man is HENRY e. FAW-
CETT. He is an honorable, upright
nscientious man. A man eminent-
ly qualified to fill the position to
which he aspires in a way creditable
to the people and with honor to
himself. His home vote it is said
will more than equal that OF any
candidate Elkland has yet presented
and his favorable acquaintance over
the county, will give him a farther
advantage not to be calculated.
For Prothonotary etc, the people
have presented the name OF W. )
LAWRENCE, who is eminently
fitted for this office. An introduce
ton seems superhuous. He was
horn and reared in Sullivan county
and is termed 'the old school teacher.
| Everybody regardless of politics vii
give him a hearty and united sup
mort on the 5th of November.
