Honorable ]. n. Keller, the farmers'
friend voted for a double pointed back
action William Penn King George tax
lien bill when he was in the Legisla-
ture to take from dear farmer friends in
Juniata county over eighty-seven thou
sand dollars, principal and interest,
which would be enough money to give
every voter in Juniata county $22 ifdis-
tributed to every man alike. The lien
claims are several generations old and
are against innocent parties. Most Of
the farms are clear Of all William Penn
King George land liens. Those against
whom the bill was directed that Mr..
Keller voted for would in many
cases have been bankrupted by the act.
An effort was begun in the eastern part
Of the state to collect the liens, but the
effort was attended with such q general
uprising protest that the collection was
dropped, and when the next Legisla-
ture met the act was repealed. Mr..
Keller was not in the Legislature that
repealed the outrageous act that he
helped to pass. II the Legislature fol-
lowing the one In which Mr.. Keller
voted had not repealed the tax lien bill
he voted for, he would be a witness to
the ripping up process on dear farmer
friends, who could not pay the claims
that he voted to fore close on them. 1t
was not Mr.. Keller's fault il they were
not ripped to pieces financially. He
had voted for the obnoxious bill. Mr..
Keller was not in the next Legislature.
The next Legislature repealed the out
rageous bill he voted for. Organism is
wrecking enough in its tendency, but
Kellerism as exemplified in the Will.

1t was true she had heard the voice Of
the slave master He had traced her
nom Virginia to Minlintown and she
only escaped him by hearing his voice
before be caught sight Of her. The
Captain continued: "Do you remem-
Der Bill Jonesv' We said, "Yes.r
"well," perhaps you remember Bill left
suddenly and ned to the West Branch
Of the SusquehannA river somewhere
about Danville because his old master
from the south had come for him."
How many other citizens Of Mimintown
can recall the advent Of the southern
STAKEHOLDER to catch men and women
that the Dred Scott decision Of the U. g.
Supreme Cont declared to have no
standing in the courts and could have
no rights, but those extended to them by
their masters, such as are extended to
horses and cattle When Mr.. Hill quotes
the Dred Scott decision he shows how
close he stands to the lost cause Of rebel
lion and should be a lesson for every low
er of the common rights and civil rights
Of man to profit by, for it proves that If
Hilliem and Organism get the control
of the government what may be ex-
pected to take place. Everything will
be gwen turn in the direction Of the
old order of affairs. When brought
home to the republican people and the
democratic people too, they should see
in it a pointer that their highest inter-
est lies in the direction Of casting their
ballots for Mahon for Congress; Mckee
for Senate and Beaver for Assembly,
for the candidates just named will vote
for anything and everything else than
o restoration Of affairs that existed
when the Dred Scott decision was made.
If you vote for Keller for Senate and
for Hackendorn for Assembly when
they get to Harrisburg they will vote
for United States Senator who will be
hand in glove with Hill and Bryan to
reorganize tho present Supreme Court
and engage in other Revolutionary
measures through the forms Of law
Vote the whole republican ticket.
