Sc we have the great question as
to who shall be United States Sena
tor I'rom Pennsylvania for the next
full term, settled at last. The Cam
eron papers have tinally discovered
that Dos is exactly the man for the
place, and the place exactly the
thing foi Don. True, there were no
(Don) Cameron papers, properly
speaking, and few if any Cameron
people, in the state, when Simon
substantially appointed Don his suc
cessor. Every Republican journal
of note protested most vehemently
against the election of DON, but of
course they did not then know, but
happily have learned it since, what
a great statesman DON is. Of
course Pennsylvania could not lie ex
]>eeted to go back on one of her very
ablest men—one who reflects so
much honor in our national council
on the state he represents. It- is
well that this matter has been ?c
amicably and so quietly arranged,
and it is a great relief to know that
Pennsylvania always has men able
to settle such questions without par
ticular trouble or bother to parties
or people.
The Times humorously delivers it
self on the matter thus:
SENATOR CAMERON mikes some very com
plimentary remarks about himself in his
Harrisbarg newspaper which convey the im
pression that he is a candidate for re-elect: i
and that, with half a dozen exceptions, i : *
Republican organs of the State "look to h in
to accept a re-election as a just iel urn for
his unwavering partisan zeal, a recognition
of his personal Illness and a tribute to the
manner in which ne has discharged the high
trust reposed in him."' The glowing manner
in which Senator Cameron's newspaper
speaks of Senator Cameron is not wbolly
due to the warm weather, although the sea
sou may have Intensified it, and the emphat
ic way in which all aspiring Republicans are
kicked back oui of Senator Cameron's way
is characteristic of all Senator Cameron's ar
rangements at all seasons. -Senator Cam
eron's friends," says this heated eulogy,
"which means the active, zealous, always
uncompromising Republicans of Pennsylva
nia—have resolved to re-elect him." And
then, after an interval of half a dozen lines,
we have "the resolute determination of the
Republican Party of Pennsylvania to re-el
ect their young senator." This strong argu
ment is followed a dozen lines or so further
along by the eqally irresistible statement
that "there is no back-down business ju this
purpose on the part of the Republicans of
Pennsylvania who have resolved to re-elect
Senator Cameron." This statement some
what cautiously but still rather completely
prepares us/or the one that follows, after a
few more lines, that "we make no hesitancy
in our declaration of Senator Cameron's can
dature for re-election." And finallv the arti
cle comes to an end at the bottom of the col
umn with the able conclusion that Senator
Cameron Is "our leader in this tight." On
the whole, we begin to think the young Sen
ator is a candidate for re-election.
PROF. E. S. WOLF, of the Theo.
ogical Seminary at Gettysburg, who
is now in Europe on a journey for
the benefit of his health, writes from
Ileiurichsbad, Switzerland, under
date of June 30th' to his sister, Mrs.
D. W. Zeigler, of this place. We
were kindly permitted to make some
extracts from the professor's letter :
"I am now among the Swiss
Mountains and with., very pleasant
christian people. It is a publi c place
to which a great many people fi om
all parts of Europe go foi llieii
health. A chaplain is here who
holds service daily after breakfast
and. after supper. He expounds the
scriptures very beautifully . offers up
earnest prayer for all the guests and
their families and friends, and then
we always have a hymn or two of
praise to" God.
"As we liave such Godly influences
here and the locality is paiticularly
healthy, it is 110 wonder tiiat persons
who come here generally get well if
they are sick. I haye improved
greatly since coming here two weeks
ago. lam now getting well, with
God's blessing. My strength is
coming back to me again and my
eyes are daily improving. It has
been a slow process.and it will still
take several months I fear, to restore
me fully, for I was a much sicker
man than I had any idea of before 1
left home. I presume if I had
known how weak I was, 1 should
not have ventured across the ocean.
Still lam glad that I undertook the
trip and thank God tor it, as I be
lieve it will prove the means of sav
ing my eyesignt and lengthening my
life." ...
"This is a wonderful country—
nothing but high hills and moun
tains everywhere. You know how
many steep mountain peaks there
are between Millheim and Brush
Valley, and how narrow the
the gorges between them. That is
just the character of this country
eveiy where. Which way soever you
look there are high mountains —quite
near you and far away—with the
narrow intervening valleys, .just
wide enough for a road or a stream
of water. But unlike those moun-
tains in the Brush Valley narrows
these are much higher, mostly clear-
Cut, covered with green grass or or
chards, and people live everywhere
along the sides and even tip on t lie
very tops of them. Some of these
mountains are so high that they al
ways have a covering of snow.'.'
"The climate is so cold here, that
nothing grows but grass, trees and a
lew vegetables. Fanner's have no
idea of raising wheat, corn, ryo or
oats. In fact they never plow, and
seem to have nothing to do the year
round but make hay and milk the
cows. This is the reason whv so
much cheese is made in Switzerland
—they cant produce anything else
than cheese and butter."
"After 1 leave Switzerland 1 shall
visit a tew places in South Germany,
to call on some old friends whom I
knew in IS(>">, then sail down th?
Rhine from Mayence to Cologne, go
over to Paris, from there to I.ond on
and thence home. " There is no place
like home." 1 hope to reach Gettys
burg about the last week in Septem
ber. When I may again see the
friends in Centre county I do not
know, but hope you may all lie spar
ed till then, and that God's blessing
may be with you."

Death cf Dr. Oliver K. Foster.
This community was not a little
startled, on Monday last, by the an
nouncement that l)r. Oliver K. Fos
ter was dead, a dispatch to that ef
fect having been received by his
widowed mother in this place in the
afternoon of that day. The tele
gram gave no particulars, save the
fact .of his death, on Monday, at
Fort Scott, Kansas, whither he had
gone about six weeks ago. on busi
ness, and with a view of selecting
souie point at which to locate and
practice his profession. Up to this
writing no further intelligence has
been received regarding his sickness
and sudden death. By direction of
friends his remains were interred at
Fort Scott, and may be removed
at some future time.
Dr. Foster was a graduate of
lieUevue Hospital Medical College,
of New York City, receiving his di
plouia in 1877. Shortly after he
practiced for abt ief period in Sny
der Co., and afterward removed to
Mifllinburg. He wis not quite thir
ty years of age; was naturally
bright, pleasing in manners, sympa
thetic, and gave premise of making
an excellent physician.
He leaves a wife and two small
children, who, with the mother, sis
ter and brothers, have the sympathy
of the entire community. Their
hearts are well nigh crushed. May
the good Father above console theni.

THE TRAMP.
In a recent conversation with a
newspaper reporter, Col. Vander
bi'.t is reported to have said that the
cities of the country had little to
fear from the communists or stiik
ers, this year, but that the rural
districts had much to fear from the
tramp element. Reports from the
west, particularly Illinois, show that
this is not mere idle talk. The
country,in many localities, seems to
be swarming with these vagabonds,
who move in masses, and are out
rageotisly bold, eetiant and insolent.
Over two hundred of them boarded a
freight train, a few weeks ago, on
the Chicago & Alton railroad, at
Jacksonville, and in spite of all the
authorities couhLdo, compelled the
train to move off with the whole
army on board. Other reports show
that some of the most graceless
scamps out of prison are perambula
ing the country, in other localities,
subsisting by begging, stealing, and
by what is equivalent to highway
robbery—intimidating females whom
they iincl without protection. Far
meis who live ou the roads traveled
by these miscreants should take
every precaution to defend them
selves and their ones from
insult or injury, and their property
from depredations.
"Senator Peale h as our thanks for
a cony of Smull's Leg islative Hand
Book."
Now that we have thanked for the
book in due regulation form, we
take the liberty to say that if the
book is no more accurate than the
"Map of Pennsylvania prepared ex
pressly" for it —it is hardly worth
the thanking. Turning to the cen
tral part of the state (on the map)
you find a rather large stream (so
maiked) rising in two forks a little
northwest of Potter's Mills and
flowing east oast Spring Mills and
along the base of Seven Mountains
to a point opposite Aaronsburg,
thence due north to base of Nittanv
Mountain and along same to line of
Union county, and from thence in a
direct line to Lewisburg. Now eve
ry one knows that 110 such stream
exists. You will also find a Mill
heim and a Spring Mills in Sugar
Valley. Turning to other parts of
the state where we are acquainted
we find errors equally gross. It is a
downright discredit to our state au
thorities to have such a miserable
rag attached to one of our most pop
ular public books, and then call it a
"Map of Pennsylvania."
LAKGE OATS. —We had thought
we had seen some oats in our time,
and recently when one of our pat
rons brought in a stalk of six feet
high we thought all the world should
have respect for that oats stalk ; but
since reading the following from the
Lebanon Daily JWtCfj we came to the
conclusion that our knowledge on
oats is as nothing—and we beg our
readers not to report any more un
less they can find some stalks at least
ten feet high :
The farmers are now beg'nnina to vie with
one another in producing the largest oats
stalks. Last week one was brought from
Koch's tavern that measured tj feet and 3
inches, but this soon was compelled to take
aback seat by one being sent from Heidel
berg township, that stretched the tape to
the tune of 6 feet and 0 iuehes. Another
was brought front the gravel lull, which
measured 6 feet 7 inches, and this size it was
believed could not be surpassed, t>ut judge
of our surprise, when yesterday evening a
man walked into our sanctum, holding in
his hrndja stalk which stretched itself to the
length ot 7 feet. Immediately we threw
down our pen, asked the man where it came
front, and was to)d that it was raised 011 the
farm of the First National bank, formerly
that of Mr. J>. M. Karmany. It undoubted
yis the "boss" stalk of the county-
