An Illustration,
Tho strict observance of tlio dootrino
that tho candidate, whatever ho may
be, ought to bo supported for tho sake
of tho party, which seems to do ino
staple argumont of tho friends of Mr.
Blaine, leads to most extraordinary ro
suits. Wo find amonir our exchanges

Blaino is a travesty upon decent and

thus describes is tho free choice of tho
party, and tho more injury it does to
the party allegiance ot original and
conscientious Republicans. Tho more
loudly it denounces as "dudes and

not support tho candidates, tho , more
dishonest, and contemptible does its

It was thought that Mr. Blaine
would at least bo honest in writing out

that they will not vote for Jilaino. Air.

Neither of thom declared for Clovoland.
The great influence of theso two
men makes thoir position of local im
portance.
Fifteen years ago Houry Richards, a
brass moulder, wbo was born and
brought up in tho Eloveuth Ward, left
JNcw xork and wont west, no mado
a circuit of tho continent, and finally
settled down in ono ot the most prom
inent manufacturing towns of Pennsyl
vania, lie boa built tor himself a home,
and bis horny bands show the burden
of labor. He was with President Ar
thur when he went through Yellow
stone Park. He was the leading guide,
He knew every portion of the park,
and pointed out to tho President and
the members of his party all the places
ot interest.
Mr. Richards arrived in New York
tho other day. He has a son who lives
on i' ttty-mntn street and n married sis
ter whoso homo is on bixth street, on
tho east sido of town. Within a few
minutes of his arrival ho picked np a
paper containing Mr. Blames letter.
He read tho letter through, and throw
ing down tho paper said :
"fie is a lino man to talk about pro
tccting labor. Ho is tho most oppros
sive employer of labor in this, country.
Ho olaims that he is an anti-monopo
list. As a matter of fact he has been
a monopolist all his life. Whenovor
opportunity oltereJ bo used his position
and inlluenco to crush labor aud labor
aspirations."
"Pleaso givo the details,'' said a by
stander, wbo announced that he had
mado np his mind to voto for Blaine,
and declared that it would require very
forciblo argument to pcrsuado him to
voto tho other ticket.
"1 am a laboring man, as you oan

hands, "and I know whereof I speak.

The following which explicitly ex
plains itself, is ot vital interest just
now. as it comnletclv demolishes the
scandalous lies which have been parad
ed by tho Blaino organs with shame
less inuecency. it is an uimwer iu 11
private letter sent from Harrisburg :
liUKKALO, JN. I., Jlliy 2. IJEAK
Sin: Yours of 24th instant received,
nnd we thank you for your manifested
interest in uov. Cleveland s behait.
With roferenco to the reports about
Governor Cleveland, you can say, and
you will tell the positive truth every
time yon say it, that tho story over
Rev. Ball's signature, and tho other re
ports about Cleveland's immorality, aro
absolutely false. Tho "Rov." Ball was
an ardent supporter ot Cleveland dur
ing tho gubernatorial campaign, and
was paid lor his work, we under
stand, however, that he was disappoint
ed about some position, henco the "Hop"
and dirty work unbecoming any man,
whether ho wears tho cloth or not.
Rev. Ball's article has no weight in
this place, where ho is known. The
story as published is false, absolutely
so, and will bo met in due lime. Cleve
land will carrv Buffalo by 5,000 to 8,
000 majority, and New York stato by
at least 25,000, and in all probability
considerably more. Ho is a man whoso
social or public lifo has never been
marred to prevent his associating with
and having tho confidence of the best
pcoplo in Buffalo, And if elected,
which ho surely will be, the united
States will havo an upright, honest,
fearh'ss president, l ours 1 ruly,

Tho Buffalo Express, tho republi
can Blaine organ at Buffalo, the homo
of Governor Cleveland, publishes the
following editorially :
1. Tho Jixjtress adheres to every good
word it then (when ho was nominated)
said with respect to tlio candidate's lifo
and record
2. What wo can say, based upon
our information and ludgment, is this
We do not believe that mo charges
are, in any lust sense of tho word, true,
3. Tlio Telegraph (the little paper
printing the slandor) has had bitter
cause ero this to regret its publication
of scandalous matter which it could
not prove, nnd we think that its editor
has learned heretofore how hard it is
in this city even to get bail in a prose
cution for criminal libel
4. Wo did advise everybody who
oould to vote for Mr. Cleveland for
mayor of Buffalo and for governor of
New York. Wo have never rcgroted his

ter. Camp was broken at 6 30 a. in. yes
terday, aud after a drivo of 30 miles in
n four horso wagon the beautiful town
of llerwick was rcachod. Tho r6ad
runs through the mountains of Colum
bia county which at points affords
scenery magnificent In its bold out
lines nnd unsurpassed for its poeliu
beauty. Tho landscape, whero fairly
exposed to view, contnins scenery
which is not surpassed in loveliness
nnywlicro in the country. Half way to
Borwick, at Stillwater, tho party was
handsomely entertained by Daniel Mo
Henry and wife, in whose hospitable
homo welcomu was extended which
will serve hcroaftor to call up pleasant
recollections of both host nnd hostess.
On reaching Borwick at 3.30 p. in. a
splendid dinner awaited tho tourists at
tho residence of tho Rev. Evans. Liko
hospitalities wcro dispensed at both
theso places to tho party on the way
to tho fishing grounds.
AT THE KISIIINO OltOUNDS.
The locality whero tho party fished
and spent tho week is in tho shadow of
threo mountains, at tho baso of which
runs tho streams from hich tho speck
led beauties wcro hooked. William
Cole entertained tbo fishermen and tlio
ladies of tho party during thoir stay.
Tho locality is one of umbrageous
shade, with tlio mountains for its walls
and tho bluo canopy of heaven for its
ceiling, through which swept winds la
den with tho porfumo of mountain ver
dure aud full of health invigorating
draughts. Some disappointment was
experienced on arriving to find that
owing to the drought the streams wcro
nearly all dried up, but notwithstanding
lav trout wero caught tho hrst day,
and over 900 wero taken during tho
trip. Tho low stage of water was a
drawback to tbo amateurs, but they
did the best under the circumstances,
making up for failures in angling bv
displays of good nature, tho indulgence
of games and cracking jokes, keeping
compauy in high spirits constantly.
On tbo road to tho stream aro two
bridges, which have been named
"Truth" and Veracity," on the other
sido of which fish stories nnd prevari
cations wcio allowed (when not detect
ed). Tho names of tho bridges wero
greatly compromised in some of the ac
counts related of big catches. It was
discovered that some of tho hshermen
paid a visit to a man by tho name of
John Stout, from whom they purchased
trout. (Jhnrges of visiting John btout
wero frequently made. Dr. Pitcairn
nnd Mr. MoIIenry made a large catch,
which was "stoutly ' questioned.
tiovcrnor I attison and Ur. otcven-
son did not develop as fishermen until
tho sixth day. JUr. iiear concluded ho
was not a bshermau at that stage ot
tho water. Hugh 1'itcaitn, Jr., caught
tho largest fish. Rev. Williamson was
accused of damming up a pool aud
bailing tho water to catch the trout-
Rev. Kinter maintained his reputation
of being tho champion fisherman. His
record for this season is over 1,700,
Rev. Evans and his son wero indefati
gable and wero rewarded. Mrs. Paul
son, Mrs. Pitcairn and Mrs. Bear put
in the timo with "crazv patch work,'
etc. Quoits, proverbs, historical char
acters, chequers and other games help
ed to amuse tho party. Governor Pat
tisou is an export with quoits. Dr. Pit
cairn is not so skilled in the gamo
though energetic in his playing. Ow
ing to his attendance at tho funeral of
of Mrs. Caasidy, Governor Patttison
did not arrive on tho ground until
Thursday.
Tho Jadies of tho party enjoyed tho
trip with much zest, and performed tho
difficult task of walking to tho fourth
or upper falls. Thero were mishaps to
some of tho party during tho week,
but nothing serious occurred to mar
tho pleasure of tho trip.
Dr. Stevenson fell off a high rock re
ceiving a sovcro fall, fortunately not a
dangerous ono. Governor Pattison,
while in compauy with Dr. btovenson,
will bu given, during tho season. Be

sago of tho laws under tho opcratiou of
which the most dread tut tinanoin! pan
ics have occurred, industrial prosperity
has been liindored nnd labor impover
islied.
Bccauso Blaino and Logan sat silent
in their scats in congress whilo tlio
eight hour law passed for tho benefit
of workmen in government employ
was deliberately violated.
llecatiso fslaino nnd l.ogati aided in
the passage of bills donating millions
of acres of tho pcoplo's lands to rail
road companies,
Hecauso Jilaino and l,ngan tailed to
uso thoir power In Congress to restore
tlio forfoited railroad lamli to the pub
lio domain.
Because Blaine nnd Logan, as mom.
hers of congress, always supported
measures pushed by tho lobby in tho
interest of monopolies.
liccaiiso Jilaino and Logan aro sup
ported by Stove Elkius, C. P. Hunting
ton, Jay Gould and other monopolists.
Because Blaino nnd Logan havo neg
lected or refused to assist in repealing
or redlining tho unnecessary tares ou
tho iiecesanes of lifo.
Bccauso Blalno and Logan arc In fa.
vor of keeping up tho present surplus
taxation of ono hundred millions of
dollars per annum
Bccauso Blaino and Logan are tho
candidates of a party whoso legislation
has mado tho rich riclior and tho poor
pooror.
Bccauso Blalno nnd Logan aro the
candidates of a party which in tlio sen
nto defeated tho bill passed by tho
democratic house to prohibit tlio Im
portatlon of pauper laborers under coo
tract.
Doubtless otljer good reasons could
bo given why tho workingmen should
givo thoir suffrages to limine and Lo
"What labor do tlioy employ In their I can. but thoso alicady assigned ought

also fell "all over' as ho expressed it,
without receiving any injury.
A number or the party fell into
pools, over rocks, down embankments,
etc., but no injuries of any consequence
wero experienced.
After tho bridges of "Truth"' and
"Veracity" wero passed homoward
bound, confessions wero in order,
large catehos wero explained, unexpect
ed admissions mado which to a degree
lessened tho reputation for expertness
of those who claimed their catches as
genuine. Tho contrition of tho fisher-
mon, tho evidenco of unsearcd con
sciences, was as much a sourco ol grat
ification as of merriment.
It is doubtful whether a fishing par
ly ever left Harrisburg who enjoyed a
moro pleasant time nnd returned as
greatly benefitted in leinvigoration by
a week spent iu the mountains. Tho
memories ot the trip will form an oasis
in tho recollections ot all who parttci
pated in it.
Tho World's Exposition.
Tlio Woild's fix-position that is to be
opened at Wow Urleans, u so lur nr-
tectoit in nil its iiep iriiiiiMiii unit it
now iu order to state tint it will be thu
largest world's fair ever held. Tlio
buildings aro larger than those erected
for tho Philadelphia ouuteuninl. The
exhibits out-number thoso ot any pro-
vious exposition, luicli ot tho Males,
except possibly ono or two, will bo rep
resented by an exhibit. Congress has
made a loan of 91,000,000 iu favor of
this centennial exposition. Tho United
States government will make a special
exhibit, tho largest it hns over attempt
ed, costing hundreds of thousands of
dollars, and to that end a mammoth
building is being erected in the group
of exposition buildings, ihe Mexican
government has appropriated S'JOO,
000, and will erect a spocial building
for its uniquu display. Tho Central
American republics havo been aroused
from their long slumber and will bo
fully represented for tho Hrst timo
nmong tho great nations of tho earth
At tho exposition ono may learn morq
about tho natural resources of thoso re
gions than by an ordinary visit lo
Mexico or Central America. To lov
era of musio a visit to tho Exposition
will bo highly gratifying as thero is
musio hail capable of seating 11,000
