Unstinted Praise.

The Republicans of Mexican county
are wideawake and have taken slime
by the forlock" and organized for the
coming year. The county committee
elected Hon. R. p. Hapgood, editor of
the Bradford Star Record, chairman of
the Republican county committee, and
Frank B. Frawley secretary, by unani-
nous vote. Remarks were made by
Congressman @. f. Barclay, Hon.
James A. Mexican, Hon. r. j. Hoff-
man. James A. Connolly, r. K. God
ding, Hon. J. @. Greenwald and A. ].
Nordstrom.
Congressman Barclay said he was
pleased to note the activity of the Nc
Kean county committee and commend
ed the members for their energy in the
cause of Republicanism. He referred
to this county as being the most pro-
ductive in the country, in mpny lines
of production. Mexican county: furn.
ishes 35 per cent. of the wood products
of the United States and Kane is the
largest glass manufacturing center in
the country. Capt. Barclay told brief
ly of his work in the fight for protec-
tive tariff on petroleum and his re-
marks were enthusiastically received.
The Bradford Star Record, of same
date says: Congressman Barclays
congressional record has been so good
that it called for unstinted praise from
the Republican county committee as
an organization, and from individual
members of his party. Captain Bar
clay does not live in the oil country,
but he was sound in his position on a
tariff on oil, and has used his influence
in behalf of that protection which
every oil man seeks.

We're a Philosopher.

1t is the business ofa newspaper man
to boom the city for all it is worth
month after month and then see 500
worth of printing go out of the city be-
cause 10 cents can be saved by so
doing. 1t is the business of the news
paper to give every local enterprise
enthusiastic and frequent 'send-offs,"
and then catch sheol because he failed
to record the fact that some prominent
citizen has had his delivery wagon
painted. To subscribe literally to
every public, charitable and church en-
terprise, advertise them for nothing,
pay his own way to everything and
then be called prejudiced and mean
spirited because a column is not devot-
ed to that particular affair. Do you
wonder that there are so many cranks
in the newspaper business? 1t is bound
to make either a crank or philosopher
out of a man.-EXchange

mated an exceptionally strong ticket.
The convention was one ofthe strong

ing of the gentlemen in the councils
of the party.
Senator A. E. Sisson, of Erie, and
Ex-senator ]. A. Stober, of Lancaster,
were nominated by acclamation.
For Supreme Court Justice only two
names were presented, those of Presi-

Superior Court, resident of Luzerne,
and Judge Won Moschzisker, of Phila-

zisker had 307 votes to Judge Rice's

Ladies Must Remove Hats.

A well known business man of
neighboring village says he has gotten
out of the habit of going to church
lately, because the women's hats are so
large that he can't see anything but
the millinery display He says that one
of three things has got to happen be-
fore he will go to church again: Styles
will have to change, the ministers will
have to take action as the Bradford
preachers have done compelling the
ladies to remove their hats, or the
church authorities will have to provide
chains and pulleys on the ceiling over
each seat. Then the ladies can take
their seats, remove hats, fasten them
in the rack at the end of the chain, and
suspend them in the air over the heads
of the audience, providing both mil
linery display to those who want it
and good view of the preacher to the
rest of the congregation.

A Merited Endorsement.

Congressman Chas. F. Barclay did
the right and proper thing when he en-
dorsed Mr.. E. X. Godding for post
master at Kane, in order to promptly
fill the position made vacant by the
death of Hon. L. Rogers. Mr.. Godding
was very close to Col Rogers, who
would be delighted if alive, to congrat-
ulate his faithful co worker. Mr.. God
ding, who is editor Of the Kane Daily
Republican, is one of the most faithful
and hard working Republicans in the
state, one always to be depended up
on, just as was that grand old friend,
Col. Rogers. 1t is so seldom the ser
vices of an editor are appreciated that
the fraternity in this section of the state
heartily congratulate Brother Godding
and predict his appointment will be
popular with the patrons of the Kane
post office and reflect credit upon Con-
gresham Barclays Judgment.

Another Cameron County Boy to
the Front

1t seems to be the concensus of opin-
ion that the election of Don M. LARA
bee as Chairman of the Republican
County Committee was very happy
choice. After years of faithful and eff
ficient political work H. Russell Hill
relinquished the arduous duties of that
responsible position, and it became
necessary to look around for a man
who could be depended on to take up
the work and infuse into it the proper
spirit, as we'll as bring to che work
the required broadness and efficiency.
There is every reason to believe that
Mr.. Larrabee combines all the requir-
ed essentials that are SO necessary to
effective work in the political field. He
has had experience as campaignor, is
familiar with the county and its peo-
pie, is gifted to special degree and
is imbued with the Republican spirit
He is, therefore, a good man to lead
the party and if he receives the coop
reation to which he is entitled will
make successful chairman and pro-
duce results.-Williamsport Bulletin.
That the Republicans of Lycoming
county have recognized the ability in
Don M. Larrabee to lead their organi-
zation to victory, is very gratifying to
his Cameron county friends. His first
experience was received in the PRESS
office, under the direction of the pres
ent editor and took his first lesson
under Simon Pure Stalwart Republi-
canism. Honest, energetic and faith
full to his party and friends. Lycom-
ing county can place implicit conf
dence in Mr.. Larrabee.

John Robinson's Shows
Has an Immense Parade.

Has an Immense Parade.
A distinguished feature of the John
Robinson Shows is the monster free
open den street caravan. Who does
not like to see the circus parade? Who
would not view the gally colored
cages come along when Madame
Roboske is seen spanking the nose of a
large lion with little whip while
cheers greet the act? The "Rube"
clown who gets arrested for blocking
traffic on the streets, with his mule
and cart, was once great feature. He
is we'll known now, but the inventive
minds of circus men will have another
novelty to replace him. Another event
of moment in every small town, and
large one, too, for that matter, is the
early one, the arrival of the circus
train. Long before the long train pulls
in on the sidetrack near the depot the
crowd is there. There is an army of
juvenile volunteers who are willing to
carry water for the elephants just to
get free pasteboard emitting them to
admission to the show latter in the day.
Men are thereto see that their boys
who have passed a sleepless night-do
not get hurt. Even women find some
excuse for going down to the railroad
yard and taking a long look at the
canvas-covered cars. Boys, who have
gathered and sold enough old iron,
rags and bones, to get 30 cents, enjoy
memorable day, and the streets lead
ing from the farming district to town
are covered with every imaginable
kind of vehicle.
Like the others, the farmers come
to bring the children. The food deal
or, who supplies hay, oats and corn for
the horses on contract made with the
advance man, wants several extra tick
ets-iust for the children. The same
is true of the butcher, who supplies the
meat for the cook tent.
AS soon as the sun is out there is
bustle and activity every place. If the
superintendent of the public school is
wise he will declare holiday. What
boy or girl can think of geography,
spelling or arithmetic when there is a
circus in town? In the language of the
German comedian, cit is to laugh"
The circus does land office business,
and, as the crowd is pouring into the
circus tent from the menagerie at the
night performance, the army of en-
ployes of the shows start to take down
the canvas which shelters the cages
and the work of loading the outfit on.
to the train begins. Thousands of
tired boys and girls retire, after having
seen the show, peaceful and contented.
The following morning the antics OF
the clown cause merriment at the
breakfast table, and some youths who
reside near the circus lot hurry through
their morning abolutions in order to
go over near the ring and see if any
change has been dropped by the spec
tators Of the previous night. The
John Robinson Shows will be at EN-
porium, Saturday, June 26.

Portland Oregon, June 9th, 1909.

Dear Father:-We received yours
and Williams postals this morning and
we were glad to hear from you. Mon
day night there was parade of 1000
people. The 3rd Regiment ofInfantry
had three companies in which were 800
men. The Eagles had float with
about six eagles on it. They had from
500 to 1000 people in it that is the par
ade. Then they had the Portland
police, two companies of artillery, two
companies OF cavalry. There was the
Woodman Lodge they had about 200
men carry axes. They had a band
called the Cops Band. The mailmen
had their mail bags full of roses. Last
night we went down to see the electric
parade. They had automobiles full of
electric lights and trolley cars covered
with electric lights. One was of the
American flag. The prettiest float was
called The Queen of Diamonds. They
had about Is floats. Yesterday after
noon we went over to the fair grounds
to see the roses in the California Build
ing but it wasn't open yet and we went
into the Forestry Building. There
was one log that was feet, inches in
diameter Some of the logs that held
the roof up was six feet in diameter at
the bottom and five at the top. These
were taken from tree that contained
5000 feet oflumber. There was a foot
that was twisted up as some body
would take the ends and twist them.
There was a stump that had tree
grown through it. There were several
pieces of timber that were square and
they were feet, 8 inches high and
inches thick. There were different
kinds of timber. Lots of Douglass fir,
black walnut and pine. When we had
seen the Forestry Building we went in
to the California Building to see the
flowers and there were some roses that
are five inches in diameter, some sweet
peas that were of a dark red color, and
some big carnations of a dark red
color. Just got back from an auto
mobile trip down town to see the auto
mobile parade. One of the pretty ones
| was little runabout covered with red
and white roses with little girl run
ming it. There were several pretty
ones but you couldn't tell which was
the prettiest Uncle Bert and / are
going out to the Parks tonight or to-
morrow night. There must have been
big fire down town for I saw the
chemical engine, hose wagon and fire
engine coming back from fire this
afternoon. Uncle Bert said that the
chief had seventy horse power auto.
mobile that he runs himself and goes
| to fire at about sixty miles an hour.
! He said he saw him coming down the
street at about sixty miles an hour.
| He has man in the bottom of it pump

try where Custer had his fight with the
Indians And went over the river
