the head Office in Chicago to grind as

great demand for glucose. The works
will accordingly not close, as is usually
the case, on Saturday night, but will
run through Sunday.

REMARKABLE RELIC.

The Middleburg Posi- under date
of June 80, 1870, says: owe learn
from the Lewistown Gazette that Gen.
J.P. Taylor, who resides in Kisca-
coquillas Valley, Mifflin County, less
than mile from the camp and
spring OF ChiefLogan, in digging to
repair the foundation ofan old house
that has stood sixty-ive or seventy
years, lately, found imbedded in the
earth, about 4 feet under the sur
face, a silver tea spoon with the
name VIM. Penn, handsomely en-
graved upon it, also the name of the
maker, trade mark, etc. The spoon
is perfectand theengraving perfectly
legibla. Is it part of the purchase
money given by Penn to the Indians
for Pennsylvania? And may it not
have once been the property Of the
great Chief Logan?"

SATURDAYS PRIMARY.

Saturday the Republicans of this
county held their annual primary
election and it passed off very quiet
ly. The results in detail are given
in another part OF this paper. Some
surprises, and heartaches were to be
expected and those who werenot pre-
pared to expect them, of course, were
disappointed. The vote was not as
heavy as usual, when the primary is
held earlier, but the later primary
seems to have been more satisfactory
than the early ones. The candidates
have had better weather.
The defeat of Judge Specht, who
made one of the most popular sheriffs
the county ever had, is a singular
result. Judge Specht was very
popular and that induced Senator
Hummel to recommend him to Gov
ernor Hastings ier appointment as
Associate Judge. The defeat OF
Judge Specht is not his own defeat as
it is Il slap at Senator Hummel. We
predicted months ago that Senator
Hummel was rot representing his
people by insisting on voting tor
Quay and the peopehavespoke
and they have severely rebuked Sen
ator Hummel for the course he has
taken.
The nominees for county offices
are all good men and we predict for
them handsome majorihes.

HELP THE TOWN.

We now have shoe factory as
sured and we have at our disposal
a proposition for a gun factory.
What are our monied men and busi-
ness men going to do about it? The
shoe factory stock was raised mostly
by small subscriptions ranging from
$50 to $500. The gun factory
needs $4,000 on bonds and $4,000
forabuilding. This means, ofcourse,
that all must pull harder and that
those who are better able must pull
good and strong. This proposed in
dustry meansa great deal to Middle
burg. The gun factory people agree
to employ 800 hands by the close Of
the second year. What does this
mean? 1t means that before two
years have expired there will be a
necessity here for 200 new houses if
we get nothing more. 1t means
more than this as the town would
need not only new citizens andwork.
men for the gun factory, but car
penters and other mechanics mus
come to help erect these many build
ings. If we all pull together W.
can easily make a town in the Mid
dlecreek Valley having popula
tion of 5000 or 5000 people intiv
or six years. If we do not do this
there are other towns in our i'm
mediate vicinity who are waiting
anxiousIy for us to say that we ca
not rasie the amount of none
needed. This is a very large bit
for us to take, but it means SO muc
to us that we dare not in justice t
ourselves let it slip out Of our grasI

REGISTERING DEEDS.

BofOre long the new system ol
registering deeds will 60 into prac-
tice. Although that time has not
been definitely learned yet, prepara-
tions are being perfectedin the coun-
ty commissioners Office for the
putting of this new system of regis
tering deeds into operation. AS we
all know, the measure authorizing
such system was passed at the re-
cent session of the Legislature. Sew
eral days ago it was approved by
Governor Stone.
1t is an understood fact that this
system will not be put into full
operation until certified copy OF
the act gets into the hands of the
county commissioners. They ex-
pect to receive it any day, and it is
thought that by the middle of next
week the compulsory registration of
every deed transferring real estate
in Snyder county, will be in full
force and effect in this county.
The general opinion is that this
move is a good one and that the act
is most opportune.
Every county in the State, in
which the inhabitants number more
than 5000 will be effected by this
new measure.
One good advantage can be found
in it, if no other can, and this is, it
will have tendency to keep the
books straight. This system has
been in use for years in the cities of
Pittsburg and Allegheny. The idea
is to keep the assessment books in
straight condition, while, at the
same time, it will enable the asses
ors of the different boroughs and
cities to keep track OF the various
transfers and assess the property ac-
cordingly. In addition to this, the
system will be worked by what is
called the slip method. No deed
can be accepted by the recorder un-
less it bears the stamp ofthe county
commissioners Office, thus showing
that it has been registered there.
Those who have deeds to be record
ed and the county officials will be
spared much trouble from now on
simply because they will 60 first to
the commissioners Office and have
their deeds registered before they
enter them in the recorders Office
for record.
An official, speaking of the new
act, this morning said: "In five
years time the operation of this act
will work Il revolutionin the matter
of assessing all properties in this
county. | have no doubt that there
is a great deal of property in this
county which Is not on liberalization
books of the county commissioners
Office, through the difficulty of max
ing accurate and complete assess
ments. In many cases it is SO DIFF
ficult to describe property that its
location is almost an impossibility.
Then, again property whichisassess
ed at so much per acre may be enter
ed as containing less number of
acres than it really does.
81 have no doubt that when the
system gets into thorough operation
the county will be the gamer by
thousands of dollars in its yearly
assessment, which now slips through
as the result of the present way Of
doing things"
1t will be noticed that sooner OF
later all the property, through the
medium of this system of register.
ing, will be a matter of record Oh

English visible increased $4,000 bushels
against 10000 bushels decrease last year
The market ruled heavy, September SELL
