Tortured at one period like the an
Client martyrs because Of his efforts to
spread the gospel in China, Mgr.
Amer, vicar apostolic Of the Celestial
empire and bishop of shantung, has
by his rare courage and diplomacy so
ingratiated himself with the controll-
ing power Of Chinese affairs that he
now, in safety and even with great GER
emOny, can conduct services in the
principal cities of the land of Ii Hung
Chang. Mgr. Amer met China's all
powerful Empress and she was so i'm
pressed with his rare virtue that she
extended privileges to him that We're
far beyond all expectations. She also
conferred upon the bishop the second
highest rank in the empire by making
him a mandarin Of the second order
with the red button. There are nine
Of these orders. and It usually takes a
person a lifetime to achieve the rank
now held by Monsignor Amer.
A Remarkable Career.
The Catholic prelate has had a most
remarkable career. He was ordained a
priest in 1876 and three years later
went to China as a missionary to strive
to attain for the Catholic missionaries
of the present day the proud, almost
Independent. position they enjoyed in
the sixteenth and seventeenth centu
ries. Upon going to China, Mgr. Amer
secured a place as teacher in the Hong
Kong Seminary, and at the same time
became pastor Of the Catholic hos
pitfalls, but the new professor of philOs
ophy and theology attracted so muci
attention by his great knowledge anC
his ability to adapt himself to NATIVE
conditions, that he was soon promoted
to the presidency of the college. A
that time the Catholic Church main

The Boxers 5000 Organ.

A few disgruntled, self.styled Refor-
mers have secured an organ ~ in the
Driftwood Gazette, after dickering for
some time. We don't find fault with
the proprietor of that establishment for
selling his space to the reformers( )but
when men who prate about decency in
politics. purity and who only knows
what else, are ready, thus early in the
campaign to handle the Pure Oil Com
pany's Doodle their cause must be des-
perate-for Lewis Emery, Jr. Yes, the
same old game, the same old gang, the
same dirty politics as well as unprin.
cipled reformers (?) are at work to
bleed Lewis Emery, Jr., (for their own
pockets), as they did Jos. @. Sibley two
years ago, and left the score of dupes
waiting and watching" for that prom
ised "soap." They are waiting yet.

PFable Newspapers.

Few if any of the Fusion papers of
the 9th Congressional district have an
over regard for facts, but the Empo-
rum Independent seems to have no
regard for the truth when looking for
Emery argument as will beseen by the
following:
"When casting about to see what is
going on it looks rather funny that
most of the pliable papers of the dis
trict are supporting Mr.. Sibley."
From facts discovered last Monday
evening in Bradford the Driftwood
Gazette is of the ''pliable" kind and is
supporting Mr. Emery. The Bradford
Record is "pliable'' enough to support
Sibley for nomination and oppose him
for election. If the editor of the Inde-
pendent will truthfully name two ''pli-
able"papers now supporting Mr.. Sibley
we will furnish him with a larger list
of the pliable for Mr.. Emery. Your
bluff is called, old man; show your
hand.-Smethport Miner.

Soldiers and Sailors rlonument.

For many years it has been the de-
sire of our citizens to erect suitable
monument to the heroes of the war of
1S61-65, but up to the present time no
organized effort had been made. On
Tuesday, Sept. 2Sth, number of citi-
zens, from all sections of the county,
met at the Warner House and formed
themselves into a committee and ell
ected J. F. Parsons, PRESIDENT; A.
Chapman, secretary and Josiah How
ard, treasurer. The committee will
call upon all citizens of the county to
assist them in the patriotic work. 1T is
earnestly hoped that all will cheerfully
contribute and help along the good
work.

A Pleasing Entertainment.

The literary entertainment given at
the court house last Monday evening,
by DR.. Byron w. King, was of a very
high order and attracted an audience
composed of Emporium's best citizens.
The DR.. was in his prime. From the
moment he was introduced to the
audience, by Hon. J. G. johnson, until
the last number he held the vast audi
ence spell bound. We have listened to
and been entertained many times by
the learned gentleman, but we believe
last Monday evenings program was
his best effort and most satisfactory to
our citizens. The entertainment was
given under the auspices of the Young
Peoples Society of the Baptist Church
and netted a neat sum, tickets to the
amount of S10O being sold.

Democratic Convention.

The democrats of this county met in
convention last Thursday and noml-
mated f. X Blumle for member of
Assembly; G. Jay Goodnough, Rep,
for Prothonotary; DR.. S. s. Smith for
Coroner and w. w. Dickinson for
Jury Commissioner. The nomination
of Mr.. Blumle is an exceptionally
strong one and will make a battle royal.
Personally we have the highest regard
for the gentleman and we regret that
he has placed himself in such position
many of his friends cannot give him
their support. Questions of the great
est Importance to the citizens of this
county must take first place in the
minds of the voters. Republican prin.
ciples are at stake and it is the duty OF
the Republican party to stand by its
candidate, Mr.. It. F. Moore, who is the
equal of our good friend in every way.
Mr.. Emery, having no character as
Republican, has sent over to Titusvllie
to have one made by the Courier. 1t
looks as if it had NJ. n. Aliens trade
mark on it in the very first line, which
is this, "Mr. Emery, as is we'll known,
has always been a Republican" He
certainly has been considered by poll
good a Republican as they have any
use for. There is no doubt whatever
that if all the Republicans in the coun-
try would conform their Repub!icanism
to that of Mr.. Emery and his associate
boilers it would be very satisfactory to
the latter. Mr.. Emery is what might
be called a political oscillater. He
helps to nominate Republican candi-
dates at the primaries and beat them at
the general election. OF course he has
been known to slip up at both cleo
tions, and history repeats.-Bradford

Company. The association has $50, 600

was organized this spring as mutual

most inauspicious rs the prevalence OF
hail storms last summer caused so much
damage in the insured territory that the
Liabilities Of the company went far beyond
its power to llquidate.
The old officers saw what was coming
and ut a recent meeting Of the board
rendered their designations. A new set
was elected. composed of Editor Farrar,
of Secretary OF state Fally's paper, as

could do nothing to square the deal and

action required by the statues.
