Party Wreckers.

The Philadelphia Inquirer, reliable
Republican paper, wraps the ''party
wreckersn over the knuckles in the
following manner:
''While they have elected neither a
Democratic Governor nor q Demo-
cratic Legislature, they have succeeded
in sending several new Democratic
members of Congress to Washington
to aid other Democrats in opposing
the policies Of President Mckinley.
While they did not assail Republican
candidates for Congress, except in one
instance, we believe, they stirred up
strife in bitter factional speeches, and
in close districts this was fatal. They
went into G. w. Stones district and
Mr.. Stone was defeated. They went
into the Luzerne district, and Morgan
B. Williams was beaten. They went
into the Crawford district and Clear
field district and the Schuylkill and
Northampton and Northumberland
districts, and the Republican candi-
dates were all defeated. The present
Pennsylvania delegation in Congress
stands: Republicans, 27; Democrats, 8.
The next delegation will stand: Re-
publicans, 20; Democrats, 10. We
trust that the Party Wreckers are en-
tirely satisfied with their work. How
grandly they stood by Mckinley p

That's nodeSt.

The Philadelphia Press, in recent
issue, says: ''The Lewisburg Satur-
day News, whose esteemed editor was
defeated for the Legislature at the late
election, seems to be impressed by the
idea that the result was brought about
by bribery. 1t declares that some of
the attendants at a prayer meeting in
West Buffalo Township were called
out by a Democratic constable, who
treated them to whiskey, zone fellow
being offered seventy-fiVe cents for his
vote" 1t further says that in Hartley
Township "another Democratic office
holder exhibited marked ability as a
convincing behind-the-door orator and
passer of red-eye and coin," and 'to
record every incident of this kind
that occurred in the recent campaign
would require more than ten columns" ;"
Bribery or attempt to bribe is a pretty
serious crime under the statutes of
Pennsylvania. Our contemporary
would be doing the whole state an i'm
portant service by using its informa-
ton to prosecute the guilty" Had the
editors of the Philadelphia Press and
Lewisburg News been in Cameron
county on the Sth of November they
could have seen the most brazen eX-
hibitions of bribery-no behind-the-
door business about it, but open bargain
and sale to the highest bidder The
prices paid for votes for the Demo-
cratic candidates were from So to S15;
S. to SO to refrain from voting and
''name-your-price" should you be a
Republican worker or committeeman,
to stand around and keep quiet and
call assistance" when voting. No
wonder a leading Emporium Demo-
cratic worker exclaimed the other day,
''don't talk to me about the election,
we have nothing to be proud of; it was
a disgrace and [ am ashamed of it
ashamed of our people-and, seriously,
what is Cameron county coming to ~

Another Pioneer Gone.

HERRICK. At Keene ospital, Philadelphia,
Nov. 18TH 1885, of cancer of the stomach, VIII
LIAM p. HERRICK, aged 68 years, six months
and fourteen days.
Mr.. Herrick was one of the pioneers
of Cameron icounty, having been
identified with its interests since 1868.
One by one the old pioneers are drop
ping by the wayside, wearied with the
long march of life, while time covers
up their footprints, as generations
come and go. The deceased will be
missed in the circle of friends that
surrounded him-sadly missed, yet the
Ruler of the universe doeth all things
we'll. The funeral was held from his
late residence at Sterling Run, on Sun
day afternoon, at two O'Clock and was
very largely attended by friends from
adjoining towns. Rev. w r. Mcneil,
of Emporium. preached the funeral
sermon, very able effort and highly
appropriate to the occasion.
They're drifting like the falling leaves,
Before the Autumn blast;
The pioneers of former days,
Whose lot with was cast.
Yes, one by one, they pass away,
When natures work is DER:
And mid the daily walks of life,
Will meet with us no more.

What is the Hatter? Waste!

One item of waste is time. Elihu
Burrett, the learned blacksmith, was
able to converse in several languages
and could read and write in many.
This he acquired while at work at the
forge, and that when his advantages
through books and living teachers
were much less than now.
There is not u boy or girl in our land
of fair abilities and health who may
not become proficient in some calling,
choosing that to which their talents or
inclination prompts.
Another source of waste is careless
ness, thoughtlessness. The want of a
nail in horse shoe causes the loss of a
horse; the want of bolt in carriage
causes the loss of the carriage; the lack
of the use of a plow, cultivator or hoe
causes the loss of a crop and allows
the weeds to grow and to seed, which
increases the time and labor of caring
for the succeeding crop, and lessons
the value of it, for the strength re-
quired to produce the weeds takes so
much of what should have gone into
the crop. The cook sits down to read
silly story, or steps out to discuss
some gossip with an associate and the
steak or other food is injured or spoiled
and with it the tempers of the house
hold.
Were it not for woste of time, means
and talent, what nation this might
become in knowledge, wealth and
power, and how happy. ~

red at Rathbun, totally destroying one

late hour. The loss was heavy.

Supporting the Administration.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
The complete figures of the vote for
Governor and Congressman, respec-
lively, in the Twenty-seventh District
of this State, will give the people an
object lesson in supporting the Ad-
ministration and upholding national
issues that are calculated to take away
the public breath. This, it is to be
remembered, is, according to all re-
presentations of the Republican au-
thorities, the first duty of man, and
the way that duty was performed up
in the Venango district was sumner.
The full returns show that there
were about 1400 people who nobly
rallied to the defense of Republican
principles and the support Of the
national administration by voting for
w. A. Stone for Governor. But having
done SO they had to have relief and
recreation, which they found by voting
to send Sibley, the rankest free silver
man the State has produced, to Con-
gress. The novelty of upholding the
Administration in that way is striking,
but may lead to incongruities. For
instance, if two years hence a large
element should be found to uphold
Republican principles, in voting for
county officers, and then rest them
selves by voting the Democratic cleo
toral ticket, there might be sarcastic
comments evoked, to say nothing of
the ieers of the unregenerate.
