VOL. LXXV. ENCAMPMENT AND EXHIBITION At Grange Park, Centre Hall Sept 13 to 19 the Greatest for Several Years —~Thursday, Democratic Day, Fally 10, 000 People Attended —The Exhibits, Thursday was a great day at Grange Park. At no time, possibly, had a larger crowd assembled on the park than came from Centre and adjoining counties to hear the distinguished Democratic candidate for governor, Robert E. Pattison, and his running mate, George W. Guthrie, for lieuten- ant governor. The number of people present is variously estimated, but no estimates are put at less than eight thousand. Ten to twelve thousand persons is the number estimated pres- ent by those who are acquainte d with the grounds. Ones hundred or more Democrats, from the various districts appointed as a reception committee, met the cam- paigning party at Coburn. The Ex- Governor and his associates were oc- cupants of the Wabula, attached to the regular train coming from the east, Just before the regular train arrived at Coburn a special train carried pearly four hundred people from that station to Grange Park, yet there remained several hundred people at the station to greet him. The sight of Grange Park from the Wahula presented a beautiful spectacle. The Ex-Govervor's face expressed a most gratifying feeling, and his sp- pearance to the mass of people was Lhe signal for an outburst of applause and cheer. On thearm of Col. John A. Wood- ward, Mr. Pattison was escorted from the train to the Democratic head- quarters, and then for an hour or more he grasped the hands of the thou- sands who passed through the tent By actual count six hundred people shook the Governor's hand in twenty minutes. At the first opportunity Mr. Pattison was driven to the private residence of W. B. Mingle, Esq, for an hour's rest, and then returned to the park for din- per, and immediately after being served he was escorted to the tempo- rary speakers’ stand erected on the east side of the Auditorium. County Chairman John J. Bower announced tha: Col. James F. Weaver, of Milesburg, would permanently pre- side. Col. Weaver introduced tne various speakers with nppropriate remarks. During the course of his address, Ex- Governor Pattison said: I am delight- ed with this opportunity to greet you in your homes. I congratulate you upon having for your presiding officer the distinguished soldier, Colonel James F. Weaver, who so faithfully and patriotically served his country in the hour of danger. I came here to talk to you about the principles of government. The men who founded our government believed in principle. They left home and as- sociates across the ocean that they might come here to demonstrate Ian's capacity for self-government. We assemble here to-day for the purpose oi discussing that fundamental principle. Speaking of the franchise grab, the ex-governor said in the clusing days of the last Legislature the Republicans assed what are known as the railway ranchise bills. They gave to the Ma- chine leaders and their friends, for nothing, great privileges. Iu Philadelphia a respovsible gentie- man offered $2,500,000 for the rights under these bills for that city alone His offer was rejected, and only a few weeks ago a corporation was capital jzed at $6,000,000 to utilize the privi- leges. If the $6,000,000 were distributed among the 67 counties of the State, in proportion to the area of each, Centre county, having 1227 square miles, would be entitled to $163,191 for good roads. Instead of appropriating this vast sum for the benefit of the rural districts it is handed to a few political favorites of the Machine in Penosyl- vania. George W. Guthrie, the eandidate for lieutenant governor in avswer to the statement made on Tuesday by the Pennypacker speakers that the State debt had been almost liquidated, said : A great many years ago, before even the Quay Machine came into existence when its predecessor, the Cameron Machine, was growing up, there was i upon this State a heavy debt in the development of a canal system of transportation, which was necessary to the agricultural districts. In 15874 the people of this Commonwealth, in opposition to the Machine as it existed at that time, adopted a Constitution which prevented the State ever incur ring apy more debt, and made the ul- timate extinguishment of this debt ab- solutely certain, and the Machive could not prevent it They do not faithfully administer the provisions in the Constitution nor respect the spirit of them, else the debt would not be almost but absolutely ex- tinguished. If the cash in the sink- ing fund had been utilized for the ben- efit of the State, instead of being de- ted in banks to furnish funds for L lation for favorite individuals, the debt would have been wi out long since. The years in which there was the reduction of the debt of ' the Btate since the passage of the Con- stitution in 1874 were the years in which your dis tinguished Democratic candidate sat in the Executive chair at Harrisburg, and owe as much to that as to anything else for the reduc tion of your They tell you also that no money has | been stolen from the State Treasury. | Well, that is a faet, in a literal sense. { It is many years since a great deal of | money in the Treasury has been stolen; | but there has been a great deal o money stolen before it got to the State Treasury. What did * honest John Bardsley go to the penitentiary for, but because the money of the peopie which was in his hands, on its way to the Btate Treasury, wasstolen by his connivance and assistance ? Where it went after it got out of his hands he never told, The distinguished jurist says that two sessions of the Legislature have gone, and he quotes a line from a beautiful piece of poetry, and says: “ They have folded their tents like the Arabs”? He forgot the second line of that poem, one of the loveliest bits of verse in the English language : “They folded their tents like the Arabs, And as silently stole away.” Gentlemen, you can prove anything by a quotation, if you take it out of its context. And they have folded their tents like the Arabs, and it is said of them that they have stolen away ip the same manner; and if you send them tack you will have no-body to reprosch or blame but yourselves, if they steal what is left. Msjor Veale, of Philadelphia, was the next speaker, and he was followed by Representative Mayne, of Lehigh county, and Senator Herbst, of Berks county, both of whom spoke in Peon- sylvania Dutch. It has been a long time since anyone in this locality beard an address in that dialect, al- though it is used to a considerable ex- tent in some portions of the county. I'he speakers were listened to most at- tentively by the Irish and English as well the Duteh Everyone ac- quainted with the dialect had about him a little group to whom he ioter- preted. Senator Herbst is the only Democratic hold-over in the state sen- ate, and occupied a seat in that body by the side of Senator Heinle from this county. He plead for the return of Senator Heinle ana told bis hearers that they—both Democrats and Re- publicans—owed it to him because he stood up for their rights and voted for every measure that would be of pos sible benefit to his eons ituents, The necessity of Democratic Assero- blymen from this county was also dwelt upon by tbe speaker. The importance of having Democratic legis- iators at Harrisburg is too frequently overlooked by the Democrats, while the Republicans never leave anything yvdone to bave the county represented in Harrisburg by one of their pumber. State Chairman Creasy dwelt on this point, and inquired why a man of the character of Mr. Allison ; 8 man who honestly voted every measure during the entire session the last Legislature, should be turned down. The truth of the matter is, the Republicans want to be represented by men like Mr. Strohm and Mr. Behoon- over, who they know will at all times a8 wo on ol and under sll conditions vote with the Republicans. Men of the stripe of Mr. Schoonover are preferred for that of- fice by the Kepublicans, because they are capable of doing any evil emer- gency may demand. While Mr. Strohm bears a good character, he has pever been known to forsake his party to fulfill church vows, D. E. Hibper, of DuBoise, the Dem- ocratic candidate for Congress, was the pext and last spesker. Mr. Hibner is a business man and looks on politics in 8 business-like way. His address was listened to with strict attention, and during his remarks he touched on state and national issues, Mr. Hibuer was a much sought man while at the Encampment, aud when he arrived Wednesday afternoon, he was given a right royal reception by the hundreds of Democrats from various counties in the twenty-first congressional distriet. sss A ————— FORENOON ENTERTAINMENTS, Loeal Talent and State Grange Officers on the Stage, The forenoon sessions in the sudito- rium were given over to local talent and speakers of the State Grange. J. T. Ailman and A. M. Corpell enter. tained their hearers on topics of vital importance to Patrons of Hosbandry and others. Theodore P. Rynder, of Erle, chair. man of the State People’s party com- mittee, was also given an opportunity to speak, Miss Edith Lutz, the Misses Grove, daughters of Nathan Grove; Miss Ber- tha Garver, Mrs. John Dale and oth- ers recited poems. Mrs. Samuel Giog- erich and Miss Anna Dale presided at the organ. The vocal music was far n ished by the younger members of va- rious grapges. ——— a ————————— EXHIBITS.

HYD OPHOBIA AMONG CATTLE Veterinu vy Buargeon Fry Investigates iterd In Hantingdon County “ Some twenty days ago a tall, lank dog of he hound species made a cir- cuit in the vicinity of Baulsburg, Huntiozdon county, and on account of his dogged appearance he was dig- patched by a rifle ball by some humsave person, little thinking that the brute was infected with rabies. A few days ago Veterinary Burgeon Fry, of Pine Grove Mills, was called to Baulsburg to inspect the cattle and swine of Messrs, Wm. Hoffoer and John Har- mun, of which had died and others acted very strangely. After thoroughly examining the cattle and swine, Ir, Fry pronounced the disease hydrophobia, and to avoid further three hogs were killed, One hogs bad previously died, It pot known whether the de did damage in other localities or not, All dogs in the ordered muzzled. wome trouble cows and two cow and two is re peighborhood were —— Sn LOCALS PD. 1 mixed car i Ww. 0 roy, Keller Taesday md of zowe and Reari k and were hogs ¢ io iAlNY, { i among friends in Cent Hall last week, Amos Koel, HROE, Was £1. of Farm place Satuide) with them oue of H VW oedd ‘Couns caught [he poultry ex Esq., of Penn te nt attracted con i inl Mr. Meyer gives the iis personal atlentior repaid for Lis care, James Zerbe, of n Miss Nora M 108, Werte “OnME>, 11 it ling of last week. wm, of near Stat W.

Mr. Aurandt’s personality has much to do with making popular the Gable booths at fairs, ete. Of course the very effi- cient and very gentlemanly and lady- like clerks were backed with the best quality of goods, at fair prices, and the combination made things go—for cash. Among the ACQUAID tances formed by the writer during the Encamp- ment which proved exceptionally con- genial was that of J. A. Riley, of Brad- f srd, who is clerk in the First Nation- al Bank of that city.
