WEDNESDAY EVEN'Q, BErT., 3, 1884.
Ne Itoem or Duller.
Tlie disappointment which has met
the expectation of General Butler that
the popular platform upon which he
presented his candidacy would summon
te him popular support, suggests inquiry
as te Its cause. Ami it is easy te sue.
General Butler himself pointed P, out,
without knowing it, when lie declared
in his speech te the Grangers, tlie ether
day at Williams' Grove, that he but re
peated the sentlments declared te them
from the same stand a day or two be
fore by Mr. Black, the Democratic
lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania,
only Mr. Black had been mere emphatic
and bread in lib declarations against
corporations and monopolies than he
had been.
That is precisely the position between
Butler's party and the Democratic
party. On the burning issues upon
which lie has proclaimed himself, he
fellows the Democratic party hi like
proclamation, save that it Ss mere
decided aud sweeping in its decla
ration of devotion te the interests of
labor and of opposition te the encroach
ments of capital than Butler dare be, for
the very geed reason that he is a capital
ist himself and an attorney of corpora
tions and a land monopolist.
There is no issne upon which Duller
places his canvass upon which he can
call Democratic voters te his banner ;
for en the issues upon which the people's
minds are turned and their hearts inter
ested, the Democratic party marches
ahead of Butler ; aud in the slde issues
upon which he has undertaken te reject
the Democratic ticket the people have
no interest. The tariff is one of these ;
and a dealer issue uever strove te r.tiae
its head iu:i pelltlc.il canvass. It is
Butler's misfortune that he chose
te kick out of the Democratic traces,
because he chese te say that it was net
sufficiently devoted te protection. He
came down into protective Pennsylvania,
and when he went up out of it he must
have li.ul a small opinion of the value of
this issue in his campaign. He raised no
ripploef enthusiasm in this tariff st.ite ;
nor did he even venture te ventilate in
it his tariff views ; doubtless because he
spoke te farmers who nie net interested
in protection te manufacturers.
Butler had no occasion te set hhnsplf
up against -the JJeinecratic ticket he
was sent te Chicago te help te niakT?,
except the belief, possible te Ills great
self esteem, encouraged in him by his
satellites, that he could make a 11.11110
and I ame by becoming himself a presi
dential candidate; as indeed he may, if
he can imika himself a eteiit factor in
thu canvass. But this he cannot de.
He fal!3 exhausted hi the very outset of
tins campaign. lie has no fuel by which
te raise steam. He cannot tell why the
Democratic lickel should be beaten. He
is compelled te acknowledge that
its orators declaim, even mere
vigorously than himself, devotion te the
interests of the people, assailed by cer
jiorate power. His chief organ, the Xew
Yerk Hun, raises against the Democratic
candidate the sole objection that hu ence
had knewledge of a woman and she a
widow ; and upon the discovery of this
has cut loose from the Democratic party,
utter having proclaimed its purpose te
h-vuert Its candidate. But General
Butiw raises no such issue against
Gov. Cian(j u0 (10WS tee well
hisewn weai,, uia bearer of a bin
nerer purity, vclajm te raise it. He
knows, furthermore Wlt the sun's
ban raised against presunUal candidates
the presidency would be v&umt, forever
mere. Genet al Butler is imttwrniely
vain, anu nis vanity uas leu iiiinuu, tlie
felly of becemiug a candidate without u
pirty and without thomeuoply of an'
issue en which te raise one. He is nut
furnished, as is St. Jehn, with his own
peculiar thunder ; and he cannot, steal
the Democratic lmlts that lie helped te
feru for us when he was of us

statu where he will find it; and we
greatly fear that it will net long be 111
the Wilkesbarre miner's hearts te wel
come him, if it is there even new. The
Sun correspondent is the sole dis, everer
of it, and may be it was the lunacy of
the moonlight that uiade him see it. As
Butler paid no attention whatever te the
miners in his speech te tlie Grangers,
und proposed te divide among the farm
ers alone all the increase of tlie land,
we de net see why the Wilkesbarre peo
ple should have their hearts warmed m
him by that oration. Perhaps the meet

New Yerk, and the telephene did net
correctly convey what was said en the
green sward under the trees.

that its course is dictated by the " busi

Blaine's inllucnce In Congress in behalf
of legislation in which he und his friends
had an interest. The Pin had better
go slew In Its zeal te make out thnt this
is a Democratic concoction. Like most
of the charges against Mr. Blaine it Is of
Republican origin and rests upon Re
publlcan testimony. This particular
accusation was current in Stalwart cir
cles for some years before the I'atrtet
overprinted it ; there are plenty of living
witnesses who heard Kemble tell it, and
if the 1'te.is will consult the files of the
llarrlsburg Tdajraph of two years age

The fair meeting nt the park grounds
Tuesday, which was praetlcally the first
day of the exhibition, must be regarded as
a pronounced success- At etevcti o'elock
iu the forenoon there 'wero about a thou
sand Liters mi the grounds, nt two
o'elook lu the afternoon thore were ten
thousand. This is 110 sense an exaggerated
estimate. An experienced pelice ollicer,
who has witnessed many similar gather.
ings, said te a reperter: "I looked at
the grand stand nnd saw it closely
paeked ; I saw that the ether stand, with,
out a reef, was also crowded ; I loekod at
all the booths, tents and side shows and
they wero paeked , the numbers who
watched the balloon iu process of inllatleu
could net have been less thau twenty llve
hundred, aud lu my oftertR te keep the
rnce track clear 1 found a imiltitude as'
great ns that which derived nourishment
from the few lewcs and the two small
fishes." With this reference te nncieut
history the officer tapped his shoe lightly
with his cane and puisucd his jeurney.
A goutlemnn w he hail heard the discourse,
remarked iu coreboratlon : " I have scen
lairs in Reading at which twenty theus mil
peeple were said te be assembled, aud I'd
take my affidavit that the crowd horoto heroto horeto
dav is mero than half of that whieh I have
fejn upon any Mngle cccnslen at Read
ing." However reliable this testimony
may be there cau be no doubt about the
phenomenal success of yestenlaj's mcot mcet
ing. And withal it was an amiable crowd.
With the exception of the three pick pick pick
poaUet", who wero promptly disjiescd by
Ollicer Deichler, theie was no fnrther in
trusion of uuwrlcome vislteis Druukeu
ncss was conspicuous by its absence, aud
geed tomper and geed humor wero the
order of the day. The handseme show of
IlDwera, fruits aud rdauts iu the hortieul
tural tent afforded constant delight te nn
oodles stream of sight seers. Yeuug and
old kept pcering into the boxes whero the
fantailsaud tumblers, with their second
cousins, the Leghorn", were undergoing a
term of imprisonment for the beuutlt of
the fair committee aud the test of the
human race. Ona vmall boy, with whom
evidently pigeons weie the prevailing
vanity,ebsetvcd his favorites thoughtfully
font tirae aud quietly nbsetted te his
mother, "That box is tee Iittle for thorn
pigeens." " Well, my boy, where would
you put them ."' "Uur pirler at home
would just held the let of 'em nicely ' '
The mether agreed that it would be
very nlce indeed for the pigeons. 15ut
there are as mauy minds as there are men,
and seme of theso who took no thought for
the pigeons oeucentrntcd their great intel
lects en the man who peeled, picked,
chepped aud pared apples, cucumbers and
potatoes with n ten cent steel instrument
of mero than 5Iophistephele.au ingenuity.

heat there was oeusiuorablo souring, but
the horses finally get away. Fer a time
them was a cHse contest between Allien
and J. II , but the fermer wen, with tbe
latter second and Doe. third, and the
ether horses in the rear. Although Rob Reb
ert Steel was distauced iu the first beat he
was given a place iu the second heat by
the judges, owing te the fact that he had
been given a bad stait. A colored mau
had been driving him, but he was taken
out and Silas Wright put iu.
This was a great improvement, and
Steel wen the next two beats, after neck

t'uly Half filled with Hydrogen Uas Aim
Vive Hours Wern,
The balloon asoenslen was a failure, and
tea thousand people, a majority of whom
wero attraeted te ilia fair grounds and
vicinity by the novelty of au iorenautlo
voyage, were geatly disappointed, and
many of them, ue doubt thought they
had been Imposed upon by the manage manage
raent of the fair or by the lurenauts. A
plaiu statement of the facta will show that
any such uncharitable suspicions are
groundless,
I'ref. Charles K. Wise. the veteran
oirenaut, anative of Lancaster, new living
in Philadelphia, proposed te the manage,
loentef the fair te make au ascension or
a series of asoenslens durlug fatr week,
but his terms were deellned. Mr. J. M.
Johnsten.au ntnatuer,lnterestedin .uionau .uienau
tics, urged the managemeut of the fair te
clote a contract with I'ref.Wise.aud falling
te convince them that the venture would
be profitable, prejwsed te make an asoen.
slen himself and tuke a lady with him.
Terms were agioed.'upeu and Mr. Johnsten
entered into oerrespoudenoe with Prof.
Wise, secured ene of his balloeus in whlelil
te make tue ascension, auu eugaged Hint
te RUporlnteud the mauufnotuie of tlie gas
and tlie Inllatleu of the balloon.
Prof. Wise's estimate el thn miterinl
necessiry te make 11,000 ouble feet of
hydrogen gas, capable of lifting 000
pounds, was: Fifteen oarbejs or oil or
vitriol 0110 teu of wrought iron turnings,
and two thousand gallous of water, 0011
talned iu from tlirce te tlve casks.
Te make assurance doubly Mire, twenty
carbeyB of vitriol (weighing 11 500 pounds)
were precured from Powers & Wolght Welght
man, of Philadelphia, 0110 und a-half tens
of iron turnings from Jehu llrst, and four
casks efa capacity of ever a,700 gallons,
from Lawroneo Kuapp, of this elty. The
original estimate was thus increased
nearly one-third.
The rcrenauts wcto,hewover,subjeoted te
many nunoyiug'delays; llrst.Inthe delivery
of the casks ; second, in getting coopers te
make them gas aud water tight : third,
In getting a line of bose through which te
till them with water ; fourth, in getting
the tin tubing and carpentering dene. It
was "fair week" nnd everybody was busy,
aud it was almost liupossible te proenre
help. The result was that the mnnnfae.
tureef the gas te inllate the lullejii was
net beguu till after mid dty Tuesday, and
the ascciisienw.as auuouuced te take place
nt 1-30 p. iu.
Prof. Wise aud his son Jehu, who have
perhaps made mero balloon ascensions
thtu any ethor two meu iu America, were
indofatieable iu their cllerts tu fill the
balloon, ami were asslsted by Chas Bitncr,
a vetcr.au urenaut, and a corps of willing
workmen. But, for seme unexplained
cauRe the balloon filled very slowly, and at
the tlme announced for the nsoeiiHieu was
uet half full of gas. Mr. Johnsten, who
was te make the iisoenaion, ai d Mis Blla
Witmer, who was te aee impaiiy (in lieu of
Miss Maty Johnsten, of Camden, N. J ,
who was auuouuced, but was unaeid.ably
prevouted from being present), were
promptly en the gieuiul, aud weie for the
nence the ebsentd of all observers An
hour passed and yet tbe btlloeu would net
till. The orewd bee inie impatient, as they
nan a ngnt te de. Mr. Johnsten stepped
into the basket, whieh contained seme
fifty pounds of ballast. The stud bags
with which the balloeti was anchored were
removed, but the big lug refused te g
up. Bvcry ounce of btll.att was threw e
from the basket, but still it would net
rise More gas w.n forced into the bal
loon, hut Its buoyancy was euly tdlghly
increased. Miss Wltmer's hopes of nn
ascension ncre blasted. Mr. Johnsten's
were net mush better, Uietigh he
sniped hlmself or his outer olething and
eterjlhlti' olse that tided weight te
him. Fiually, he proposed te have the
btsket cut away Irem the balloon and
being IhiiR lightened ascend hitting en the
hoop, but Prof. Wise objected. However,
with this ebject in view the btlloeu was
towed te the front of thegrat-d stand, but
even thus lightened it would net go up.
It was new about 0 o'clock and Mr. lehu
Wise, who is abjut 20 peinds lighter than
Mr. Johnsten cfsajed an ,ncnt, but with
ue better result, and the disappointed
multitude began rapidly te dispcrse.
Finally a twelve year old by w s placed
in the bisket aad, with a rupn attached,
rose as high as the tree tops aud as thus
towed back te the place e! lnllitiju.wliete
the balloeti wnt inch jred te await further
aotien.
Tbe falture toliave tbe aaconslen made
was a great disappointineat te tbe thou
sands assembled te witness it, aud a great
mortification te Mr. Johnsten, Miss
Witmer and the Me.srs. Wise, who had
plumed themselves en thu certainty of a
cemplete sucoesb.
