Meylert and Mrs. Annie Finch, were visiting friends in Montgomery and Milton, last week. Hon. ltussel Karns of Laporte, enjoyed the early part of the week with friends in Benton, Columbia county. Workingmen in this country had no trouble to get employment until the Democratic party came into power. The colored camp meeting at Lake Mokoma. the last of this month will attract lots of people to the county seat. The honors of being nominees of the State Democratic convention are like many {teople* pocket books these times. The Germania Band of Towanda are making arrangements for an e>.» cursion wliich will be run to Eagles- Mere on July 25th. The party given at the Liporte Hotel, on Wednesday evening July 4th, was a success and all present report a good time. l!ou. C It. Buckalew of Blooms burg, aud J. Henry Cochran of Williamsport, registered at the La porte Hotel, Tuesday. They had a Urge day in Dushore on tbe 4th, but it won't be a com parison to the 15 ill of August in La porte.

A large number of colored people of Williamsport, contemplate hold ing a camp meeting at Lake Moko ma, the last of this month. When the people get to the polls r.ext November they will put down Democratic hard times, riots and all similar evils, by a very large ma jority. If Chicago would get rid of its Anarchistic population it wouldn't be quite so large a cit3', but it would be a uiighLy sight safer one to have around. The post otllceat Laporte changed hands on Saturday evening last. Mr. Walter Spencer is now our P. M.in place of Miss Ethlin Mason, resigned. The 15th of August comes on Wednesday. Everybody is invited to come to Laporte on this date to attend the largest pic-nic ever held in the county. A number of farmers in this sec tion who have always voted the Democratic ticket, are frank in say ing that they will never vote Demo cracy again. Amt-n. Here's richness: ''We re-assert ihe old Democratic doctrino of equal rights," quoth the Pennsylvania Democratic platform. Does this refer to "befo' tbe wall," or after. The road between this place and Eagles Mere, is said to be very good. This will be good news to the sum mer guests who take a jant over the same nearly every day of the week. Mrs. Clent Calkins and two sons, Floyd and John and Mrs, Daniel Shoulder and little son. Master Charley, of Williamsport, are visit ing Sheriff Mahaffey and family of Laporte. The editor was congratulated more than once, by Democrats, too, for the article published in the RE PUBLICAN in our issue of June 28th, pointing out the ofßce seekers in the "Cherry Combine." B. W. Jennings is going to be our next Member and we would caution our Democratic friends that if they don't want a licking they liai better keep out of the race. A word to the wise is sufficient. June 30th was the last day that postal notes were issued from the various post offices. Several parties over in Dushore called at the office under the impression that postal cards had been discontinued. Mr. John Pureell, who formerly occupied the Brewster shop, on North Muncy street, has purchased of Judge Ingham the large stone house, on Thorne street and took possession of the same last week. Wool is quoted in Du6boro at 12 cents per pound for unwashed and 17 cents per pound for washed. These are the effects of the Demo cratic Wilsou bill. All farmers should vote the Democratic ticket by all means. Prof. Orr L. Davis principal of the Laporte graded school, left for his home in Franklinville, llui ting don county, on Friday oflast week. Orr has been retained as principal of our schools aud will return in September. Geo. Jackson the cigar manufac turer of Dushore, took a skip over to Laporte on his wheel, Monday. On his ri-luin home and opposite the Kkpi JBLICAN office he took a header, hut said It dld'nt hurt him any, that all bicycle riders were hardened to those kind of knocks and gave them but little thought. Wonder if it would hurt a bicycle rider to precipitate down a precipice a hundred feet depth? Superintendent J. W. Flynu, of the Laporte Tannery, received word from the officials of tbe Union Tan uing Company of Hidgway, last to reauute full time at tbe La porte Tannery. In accordance with this order, Superintendent W. A. Kennedy of the inside works of the institution ordered three hundred sides plsoed in sosk. This is a good send otf for our tannery, owlog to the fact that our ueiglibor tan neries are only working half time. Miss Winnie Davies, daughter of 0% Lieutenant Governor, William T. Davius of Towanda, aeoouipanied by Miss Bessie i'arnocbaih daughter of the late Ally. VV II I'amouhan, of Towanda aud an old law partner of tbe Hon. Mr. Davies, are spend j in|( a few days 111 !.apoft«, the guests of tks Mountain House The young ladies speak very itiuely of Laporte aud Lake Mokom* as a summer re»»rt aud are evidently enjoy lug tlnir vetfttton Urr«i on the ' Ul"UßlaiU, F» W. Gallagher, proprietor of the Slain street Cafe, was up and doing on tlie morning of July 4th. While the county ofllcials and clerks were slumbering, lie seized the op portunity and tacked the first flag on the new courthouse building. He hung it to the breezes on the north west corner of the tower and gave a salute of three Bhots. During tLe day some persou lowered it to half mast, not un account of a death, but we presume, owing to the fact that the building is only half com pleted. When this news reached Frank, be seized an armful of spikes and with his little hatchet in hand proceeded to the structure and nailed it firmly to a board which he used as a flag staff. Frank is proud of the honor which will go down in history, that he, Gallagher, was the first man to hang the stars and stripes on the new building. Mr. W.J. Maguire and wife of New York and Mr. W. L. Welch and wife of Philadelphia, guests of Hotel Raj'mond, Eagles Mere, took a drive over to Laporte to view Lake Mo koma and its surroundings, early Monday morning. While home ward bound and opposite the post~ office building one of the wheels of their two seated carriage collapsed, apparently without cause,as the team ster, Mr. G. I. Woodside was driving at a moderate gate, throwing one or two of the occupants to the ground; neither sustained any injuries, how ever. Several of our citizens went to their assistance and indue time a second carriage was procured for them ami the broken wheel taken to the carriage shop for repairs. With this done the p trty continued their journey homeward. The bricklayers on the court house have been laid off for several days in wait for iron doors to be furnished by the Couuty Commis sioners, The officials ordered the doors of a Philadelphia firm Indue time, but owing to the fact that they are made In Ohio, tbe Western rail road strike is supposed to be the cause of the delay. The workmen complained the early part of the week of the material not being on the ground, but under tll» circum stances, we fail to see how they can hold our people responsible for the delay. The Couuty Commissioners and the contractors, Messrs. Law rence Bros, are just as anxious to have the work go ou as the work men are to do it. The court will appoint ft county auditor in place of Morgan (Javitt, resigned. Jacob Magargle of Sones town, would like the appointment and be would make a right good one too. Streby of the Gazette , an nounced through bis paper that Mr. Gavitt's successor would be elected at the polls this fall and Jacob took advantage of the situa tion and announced himself a can didate for the place through the columns of the Gazette. Now whether Qeorge made this state* ment for card fees or through ignor ance the people don't know. If the latter, George has a great big bee in his bonnet that he will know more about the law one year froui this fall. COUNTY MAP. It In About Tim* ■ Mew One Wim Mw«l« »u4 Hublialied There is no authentic wall map of Sullivan county in existence. It is nearly twuuty years since the late Win. A. Mason published the one now in use, and it is not authentic. New townships have been formed, new roads laid out aud old ones abandoned, and the average resi dent dout't know where he is at. There would certainly bo onougb subscribers to such a publication to warrant some wide-awake map maker togo ahead aud publish one. Kvery political candidate will want a copy to guide him over the county. As it ia, office seekers sometimes get outside their bailiwick.

Webster, met at their office in Laporte on Monday and requested the County Auditors, Messrs. Hever ly, Wilcox and Gavitt to meet with them to take action and reduce the commission paid the County Treas urer, A. L. Smith, on the bonds to be issued by the county. In ac cordance the officers convened at the appointed time. The result of the meeting was as follows: COMMISSIONERS' OFFICE, July 9, '94. Commissioners meet, —full Board present.

As announced In tUe REPUBLICAN the excursion of Odd Fellows along the line of the W. & N. B. visited Lake Mokouia on July 4th. The excursion consisted of about three hundred aud fifty people and they ariived at the pic nic ground at the head of Lake Mokoma at about 11 a. m. Thp small attendance was owing to a fuueral and a death in Ilugliesville on said date. The death was a Mrs. Parker, wife of one of the baud boys, hence the Hughesville band did not join the excursion. Those present evidently enjoyed a good time, however. Esq. Mason who has the ground in charge had prepared tables for the spread and Immediately on entering the grove the mothers, the grand-mothers and the great-grand-mothers commenced arranging for dinner, while the young people took possession of the large and spacious platform and en - joyed an all day's danoe. The or chestra consisted of a violin and a guitar. It served the purpose how ever, aud that was all that was necessary. The stoam boat which had been launched on Thurs day evening, June 28th, was on deck and Nerved to help entertain the visitors. At about noon how ever, some part of the machinery got out of whaok and sho laid idle for nearly three hours. Ed. Koons engineer on the railroad and Mr. E. I. Brundage of Laporte, detected the mishap about the machinery. The eccentric had gotten out of place. With this repaired all went smoothly the remainder of the day. The pio ulcers returned home at 6:30 p. in. Our people amused themselves at home and gave the pie-nicers, but little thought. Occasionally a few of our number would cross the lake aud entor thu grove out of curiosity, but on a whole they gave the ex cursionists full sway. Young America burned the usual amount of crackers and late in the eveniug the men cauie to their rescue and made things lively for a time with the large crackers, roman candles, sky rockets, etc. There were uo serious accidents to mar the pleasurers of the day, as is usual on such occasions. Fourth of July was a big day in Sonestown. The program wait car ried out iu full and the people of the town in the valley are reeelv tug lots of uo IU pi l meats for the good time they gave their visiting guests. A number of out people attended the raoos and pio-nte at Dushore on the 4th, They say the pionio was i a success, but the raees were a com plete failure.
