Sam Randall head on ft trencher, are now banging up their hruiHcd anno for monuments, and " jHiiiit ingwith pride" to the harmony they captured. The New York f7rinV-, a Ib-nio.-rat.ic Kheet, asserts that I otvi-rnor Ili-avt-r is nursing a fair-sized Pri-si.li-ntial Immjiu, and admit that "be it. just the kind of a man a fighting Republican National Con vention would turn to in an extremity." The venior is hardly a pomihility for Lskh, but there is no telling what may lie in store for rennsvkaiiia in 2. The Ih-iikk raw nominated a " fair V middling" ticket at Allentown last week. Its jH-rsonal strength may In- judged from the fact that" Who the devil is Me- .rann ?" came from all parts of the house w ben that gentleman was placed in nom ination, and a delegate from Lancaster bad to rise and give tiie Convention bis biography. When among hisotheravail abie qualifications, it was announced that be w as the jKinnwr of a very large si-d "bar!" be was forthwith nominated by aeclamat i- m. Ci.EvELAxn was endorsed for the ast. but not commended for the future by the IVuKKTata of Pennsylvania at the Allen town Convention last week. They couid not have done less bad they tried, except by totally ignoring him. They sat down bard, on the champions of bis Free-trade jiolicy, said not a word, favoring his aelf Hccking renomiuation, proclaimed Fro tertion and a reduction of internal rev enue taxes as their policy, and dismissed the President w ith a pat, and a brief "good boy shan't be whipied " commen dation. Call you this backing Cleveland and Free-Trade? The Free-Traders were knocked ou. the first round at Allentow n. History makes no mention of a more thorough or a more humiliating defeat. For months it was blazoned abroa-1 that. Itandull was to be mippresned, the I'roteetionists disciplined, and Cleveland and Free-Trade endorsed and magnified. IVhold the insignificant mouse brought forth after such moun tainous parturition ' ! Randall was 1ss. The IViteciionists niled the nwist.aud the In-silent was graciously allowed a eoin mendatiou. Like unto the devil shear ing swine. It was much cry and little wool, for the anti liandall Tree-Traders. Is the battle of the R wses at the IN-ui-ocratic State Coiixcutioii last week there was apparently but little interest taken in the candidate. Tiie result therefore was the nomination of " Forney " Me irann, of Immast.r who had never lieen previously mentioned in connection witli the otliee for Stale Treasurer and of J. lions Tbomiison, Kn., of F.rie, 6r Supreme J udge. l!ith nominations are however, thoroughly respectable. Mr. Mctirann is a very wealthy banker and railroad contractor, and Mr. Thompson, a on of a former Judge of the Supreme Court, is remrted to lie a most excellent lawyer in the enjoyment of a lucrative practii-e. ovk8nok Heavkk has issued a procla mation to the people of Pennsylvania re citing the fact that the centennial anniver sary of the signing of the Constitution of the I'nited State is to lie celebrated in the City of Philadelphia on the 1Mb, lot h, and 17th days of September, 1S7, aud commending to them the due oliservance of the days set apart for the commemora tion of an event of such vast imjmrtance to the Nation. He recommend hearty cooperation by the manufacturers both employers and employed, in making the industrial display worthy the great occa sion and the progressive spirit of the age. And he also request the clergymen of the commonwealth to preach sermons pproriate to the occasion on the Sab Wth preceding or following the celebra tion. Tiie recoiuntendationsof overnor Rver are worthy the consideration of the ieople of all the States, and it is hop ed they w ill all join, so far as practicable, in making the commemorative display and the exercises of the occasion in all respects creditable and gratifying to our National pride. Cosokbv Mil l of Texan, whoex pects Mr. Carlisle to be rjwaker of the next House, and expects by him to Iw made Chairman of the Committee of Ways and Means, is very much disgrun tled over Randall's victory at Allentow n last week, and insists that he shall not 1 mvnizsl by Mr. Carlisle in the make up of the committees, and n short sJi.miM lie kicked out of the party. Tbette le brave words, but it seems to us, that. Mers. Scott anil Sinperly gave utterance to similar sentiments Is-fore the conven tion, and at that memorable gathering instead of U-ing the kickers tliey Iwaiut' the kickeil. There is a lesson in this lit tle incident that might profit Mills, bad he but the it to read it aright ArroRoiv; to their own showing, the I)i-iiK rats of Fayette and ire-ne coun a iint Hcentd set of politicians. Since Mr. Boyle suco-eded in carrying F.v.-tt.. count v dtr Juilire. constant. cilic charges have Wn made by bis op ponents that money ami wan-Key were used lavishly, and corruptly, to secure the vote. A few days since, tireene county s ua urrt1 !iv Mr. llili hallsll. acanilidate f.'ir the same otfice, and now it is charged that this result was also secured by the corrupting use of money. If these stories t true and tbev ail come from IVmo- cratic sources, there must lie a lieautiful sense of morality existing in a communi ty that prom ises to elevate either of these candidates to a position on the lienc.li. The annual picnic of the Grangers at Williams Grove last week was the most successful of any yet held. On Thursday the attendance amounted to over -tO.OOti. On the closing day sales of a vast amount of agricultural machinery were made, and it is estimated that sales und Contracts fnr future delivery, made during the week, amounted to more than ?M0,0tX. Memliers of the order from all Slates east of the liskv mountains are said to have lieen present. Action was taken, looking to the pris un'iiicnt -if Legislation in fa vor of the agricultural interests of the uiitry, anl it is alleged that the protec tion sentiment was so strong that after iiligent inipiiry but two memliers Were found who entertain free-trade scnt:- nents. The Allentown Convention last week was a mere fight of the Ixises for stlprem- y. Scott led the one fuctioii under a banner flaunting the significant motto, "Cleveland and Free-Trade," while Ran dall marshalled the other with the cry of " Pennsylvania, aud protection to home industries," claiming at the same time. ( lie also in unison with the views of the President- The issue was squarely join ed, and the protection policy was fuily af tirmed with the President's indorsement of it as net forth in the Chicago platform oflsM. Not a scintilla of the Scott pro gramme was adopted. It was totally eviscerated from the resolutions, and Mr. Randall was completely vindicated and sustained. The result is of not much im portance to Republicans, except in the fai t that it shows conclusively that the lh-ni's-rats of Pennsylvania will not train with the Carlisle faction that is lalwring to crush protection, and build up the whiskey ring. WnATelli-ct the Kaltimore and Ohio deal will have on the South Pennsylvania is yet to lie seen. The same syndicate that attempted to swallow it, is the one that has just gobbled the B. & O. But fortunately in the case of the South Penn. there is a legal lion in the pathway. The courts are not in the st-k market, and a syndicate cannot sqtiee7.e or control them. The attempted consolidation of all the existing ra lroads in Pennsylvania in the hand of a controlling syndicate, makes the speedy finishing of the South Perm, all the more an imperative necessity, and givl greater promise of an assured and profitable trailic for it. The manufactur ers and shippers of this State must, for self-protection, have a cometing line, otherwise they will lie at the mercy of a nioti ijhiIv, and we expect to see, as soon as the first flurry is over, and those in terested have time to take new bearings, a determined and vigorous ctiort made backed up by jKipular sentiment through out the State to push the South Penn sylvania to an early completion. None understand lietter, than do the people of Pennsylvania, that "competition is the life of trade " and that ruin treads fast on the heels of iuonoily. Tiik alleged transfer of the Baltimore' .if Ohio properties to other bands which this time appears to le authentic is a stunner. Its raiment is to lie parted and handed over to its enemies.and the great system so lalsiriously built up by the el der ( iarrett is to lie disrupted for all time. The express has already gone into other hands, and it is asserted that the tele graph and the sleeping car systems will shortly follow. The disintegration of the B. & O. plant will have far r-acbing ef fects on the railroad interests of the coun try. Its management was considered the most conservative of any in the land, its stock has been held as the liest and saf est, selling at the highest premium, and around it clustered the hoes of those w ho dread the blighting power of far reaching and domineering monopolies. The causes underlying the downfall of this great corporation have not yet been vouchsafed the public. In view of the monster debts carried by the other trunk lines of the country, it is preposterous to allege that the B. & o. could not have provided for its pn-ssing indebtedness of less than SIO.OOO.IM), w hen as is admitted it express, telegraph and Bleeping car auxiliaries, could have been disposed of for more than that amount. It is however, the concentration of so vast a portion of the traiisportat ion interests of the coun try in the hands of a syndicate, couios ed of a few men: the creation of so vast a monopoly, capable of crushing out all competition, and alnolutely domineering the trailic of the country, that is startling if not alarming. How the country at large, bow shippers, aud manufacturers, and dealers are to fare at the hands of a monopoly without competition is cause for anxiety. Looking at the result flow ing from the "Standard Oil Company" monopoly, what may not 1-e anticijiated j from the " removal of all autagoni,sms between them on the subject which will insure the i-rmanent working of the Bal timore and Ohio in entire hmuionv with the other trunk lines," These lie smooth and oily words, uttered by the syndi cate: but it is the "entire harmony " of the trunk line, void of competition, a pooling of issues, managed by a master hand, that the country has to dread. THROWING JONAH OVERBOARD. FVum disiMe-luidtx editorial in X. Y. World Item. Why is it that the elections of lat year and of this year have pone against the Dem ocratic party Why did it lose Indiana and Virginia and sustain serious hisses in North Carolina and West Virginia? Why was the party utterly demoralized and nearly wijied out in Cincinnati. Chicago, Milwaukwand other Western citioa ? Why has its majority been cut down one-half in Kentucky on the largest vote, it now ap-ar, ever cast there? Were all the skates and communities af fected by " personal dislike "" of the Pji deiit?

Georgia Convict Horrors. Atlaxta, St-jitemtier 1. Governor Gordon has received information from Dodge county of a case of brutality to the convicts in I)e-gn-ey camp which has been unearthed by the iHsige county grand jury. At that camp, where fifty convicts were worked, the auper inlcndent's name is Bryant. Oneof theeon-vi-ts was nuule to work by the fire. He com plained of being sick but with the lash Bry ant c-imis-lled him to keep at work until at last the convict fell dead at his feet. The grand jury has indicted Bryant for ruurder hut he hearl of it and escaped into Alabama. The other convicts were equally badly treat ed. Another case was that of a negro who es caped from the camp. The managers suj jioscd that he would make his esl by the railroad and sent a guard to intetwpt him. The guard went to a cut below the station w here there had been an old mill. ' After some time tiiey heard the clunking of chains mi. I knew that the negro was coming. The negro came in sight and was shot dead. The guard said he halted the negro and he ran. This statement was controverted by the fact tliat every shot was tired into the negro's brtvt in front.

Revelations of the iirilH-ry an-1 corruption attending the late iHuiocratic judicial primary in Fayette County are still Is-ing made. To-day Lucius Martin, a Ih iins-ratic. worker and Searight man of the st-cnud Ward of Fiiiontown. made affidavit that shortly before the pri mary Mr. Brylc's son John, a mcndsT of the law firm of lioyle, Mcstrczat ,fc Boyle, ottered him iu cash f..r bis vote and influence in bt-'ualfof Boyle for the nomination forjudge, and also as-nred Martin that his lather would do even better than that for him hereafter, for he had ihe money to do it with.

Williams (iBovc, Pa., Sept. 1 There were over forty thousand people at Williams' Grove to take in the Grangers' picnic. Ex cursionists from all over the state went in special trains. Maryland seut aver a delega tion, Virginia followed suit, and the North Carolina Grangers reached the jrrove in time to take part in the proceedings of the biggest day of the week. In Harrisburg almost four thormnd tickets were sold, and along the Cumberland Valley road at least ten thou sand tickets were sold at the towns along the road tietwu-n Harrisburg end the grove. Vehicles werehitcbed to every (i-iice rail and every t isr post within half a mile of the grove, and one liirifiy lariuer drove a brisk business by charging ten cents for every team that was anchored ou hi premises. One of the best sutures of t lie day were the many family parties that weut in the good old picnic style and spread their board be neath the trees instead of relying ou the gutta-percha doughnuts and cast iron sandwich es of the dizzy restaurants. But the hitter had all they conld do. Tiie average attend ant at Granger fairs does not take a large basket of home made pie and broken-hearted cake with him. He goes in light marching order and patronizes the restaurants and eats mysterious things with high-sounding names and drinks alleged tea and coffee that would make a boarding house blush. He is the man whose money the caterer puts in the bank when he returns to his native lair While the thousands and thausands tram ped the red dust until it settled in their faces and gave them an Atlantic City complexion a couple thousand gathered in the auditori um and listened to addresses. Col. Victor E. Piollet, of Bradford, who still loiters in the reminiscent atmosphere of Andrew Jackson, presided and made one of his peculiar siecch a. There is frost ou the Colonel's shad bellied coat when heciiu't make a Seech and denounce everything that is not Gran ger, especially the corporatoins and the Re publican wrty. He hail his little shy yes terday, and cracked a few jokes and .then crawled into his shell. West Virginia Bandits. l'AKKttt.-si tto, W. Va., Se. 4. Ib-nry Hansel, a wealthy German farmer of Kana wha county, was nibbed on Friday night by masked men who got quite a large hmty. Hansel's home is a long distance from the railroad. His wife and he, both old icoplc. occupy sefKiratc sh-eping aKirtUK.-uts. After retiring, Mrs. Hansel was awakened, wht-n s ic found four masked men in the room with cocked revolvers. She attempted to sen-am, when they prevented her, and threatened her with death. Two ofthe rob-b;-rs created an excitement by firing at the 4-;c : u res on the wall. This awakened ihe old man who. fearing the robliers. endeavored to r- t orit and take away lii horses. He was heard and brought back at the point of a re volver. After getting him to Ihe house, ;he robbers, lieiug unable to find anything, threatened to kill him if he did not deliver up his money. He yielded and the robliers got a mil of about j02 and notes of negotia ble character, which would amount in all to WW. Taking three of Hansel's horses, they dejiarted, and there is as yet no clue to their whereabouts. Perils of the Rail. PaksoSs, Kas, Sept. 2. An excursion train over the Kansas City and Pacific from Morau, Allen county, to this, city, contain ing over suO people, was ditched on its reirn trip between Erie and Moran last night. Sev eral cars left the track aud a number of peo ple were injured. One man, it is thought, w ill die of his injury. Cincinxati, O., Sept 2.

Alsiut J o clock yesterday morning as a train of eleven curs with ftun sseugers was return ing from a visit to the spectacle of " Rome l iider Nero," at Cincinnati, the engine en eountered, at a point about a mile from Ix-b-anou, an olwtruelion made of railroad ties and fence rails. By good fortune the train h.-.d stopied a short distance lief- ire to let oil some passengers, and had not yet attain ed sufficient Sieed to be seriously injured when the obstniction was reached. The as setigers were shaken up, but no one hurt. Four Men Killed. WiLLiAMspokT, Aug. 30. The scaffolding erected around the Annunciation Catholic Church gave way this morning and four stone masons were precipitated to the ground sixty feet below. Raphael Boka and Charles Marbert when picked up were found to be dead. John Winner and Thomas Ruihlcy were removed to their homes, where they both died early in the evening. A filth man who was ou the scaffold saved himself by grasping a window just as the timls-rs gave way. The scaffold had been erected tor the use of the men, who were completing the tower of the building. The four men were horribly mangled by their fall. All leave families. An inquest develoicd the fact that some of the timbers used in the scaffolding were very defective, one joist being cracked. A verdict of accidental death was rendered. Father Gravey, the pastor of the church had Is-en on the platform a few minutes before it fell and it then seemed to be all right. "WhiteCaps" At Work. New Albaky. Ind., Sept. 2. Tuesday night a gang of lawless men in Spencer township, Harrison county, calling them selves " White Cajis," took from his bed John Hildebrand.a populur citizen, who last April was elected Justice of the Peaie by a nearly unanimous vote, and, tying him to a tree, beat him unmercifully with hickory switches. They told him they were not pleased with his decisions and charged him with cruelty to his family. The same night at Bepauw, the regulators warned a saloon-keeper to stop selling liquor, and at Frenchtown they awakened the 1'iBt mastcr, I'aul Henriott, told him what they isu been doing and ordered him under K-n-alty of a hundred lashes to spread the news quick. They had previously wanied a w ill ow named Dougherty that she must not marry a young man to whom she is engaged. Her friends have organized for her protec tion. His Five Children Died Miserably. Savakkah, , Sept. 2. Bob Coalson, living four miles from Valdosta, had his hotLse burned last night and a little child of his, 10 years old. perished in the flames. Boh and the balance of his family had gone off to a festival and they left the child asleep in the house. Only part of the skull of the child remained uubnrned. Bob susected a former wife of burning the house and lie had her arrested, but as no evident could lie brought against her she was released. About four years ago he had a small child who fell into the fire around a wash pot and was burned to death. Oiks year later he had his house burned and twin infants perished in a conflagration. About two years ago anoth er infant was smotiiered to death in bed. Five Hundred Feet. PaixcKTox, Mo., Sept. I. At the Metier County Fair, yestenlay afternoon, Randall Blakeslee, a half-breed Indian, made a bal loon ascension, hanging to a tras-xe bar. In the ascent the balloon shot up sudden ly, giving Hlakeslce a sudden wrench, and he w as unable to pull himself ou the bar, but managed to pull himself up by a loop which he I ml drawn around his wrist. After traveling about a mile and a half reaching an altitude of 2,iJfet, the balloon began to descend, but the poor fellow's strength gave out anil, when within five hun dred feet of the earth, his grip relaxed and he fell to the earth, lightning on his feet in a cornfield, his thighs being broken and driven into his bodv. Jefferson Davis to Visit Macon. Satakxah, Sept. I. The State fair which takes place in Macon in October has secured the promise of Jefferson Davis that he will be on hand. With Cleveland swinging the circle southward to Atlanta and Davis swing ing northward to Macon, Georgia will be treated to the bright stars of the Democracy of 1 and 1887. Scared South Caorlinians. Coli-mbia, 8. 0-, August 31. To-night being the anniversary of tiie terrible earth quake which occurred last August, religious services are in progress in all the colored churches of the city . The exercises consist of tluwksgiving hymns, prayers and fervent exliortations to the -oplc to he prefioreil for whatever may le in store for theni. The churches are crowded, but up to 10:.'to r. M. no unusual excitement has been manifested. Tiiauks giving services are also held iu several white churches. t The streets are unusually quiet, and a Sunday-like stillness and solemnity pervades Ihe city. Considerable nervousness and anx iety has been manifested by women and chil dren throughout the day and when the fatal hour (."itt r. u.) pa.-ed thonsamls of per sons drew a deep sigh of relief and breathed a silent, though fervent prayer, of thanks giving. A sjiecial from Charleston says : " Proba bly nine-tenths of the colored people of the city are out in the open air to-night holding religious services. There is no unusual ex citement among the white people, but there w ill be no perfect rest until day dawns to niorow." A similar condition of affairs pre vails at Somerviile and elsewhere throughout the state. Abduction of a Desperado. St. Joseph, Mo, Sept. 1. Ike Laws, a no ted dtsiperado of Webster county was shot two weeks ago, and as was supposed, fatally wounded, by a jiosse of deputy sheriffs in an attempt to arrest him on a warrant sued out by the sheriff of Neosho. He was taken to the hospital, where he was soon on the road to recovery. A Sheriff's deputy came after him yester day, but concluded to wait until night before taking him. Fifteen or twenty masked men surrounded the hospital hist night, overpow ered, disarmed and bound the guards and t-sik Laws away, not permitting his wife who was watching to go with him. Laws was put into a wagon and carried across the river into Kansas. A pot e of sheriffs is in pursuit. Laws is a member of the gang headed by Franklin brothers, two noted desperodoes, and one of the truants says he recognized Con Franklin among the men last night. It is believed that they thought Laws would die, anil to prevent any information being divulged determined to abduct him. Serious trouble is anticijiated if the crowd is overtaken, as Uit'n they and the posse arc heavily armed. Saved By A Lady. Chii-aoo, Sept. 1. A sjiecial from Pekin, 111., says: A bold attempt was made last evening to wreck the Indiana. Bloomington and Western east-lsiund iassctiger train which left Prkin at 8 o'clock at Leslie station six miles east of this city. The westbound passenger tmins are due here at 8 o'clock, arriving and ss at this point. The west bound issenger (ossed Leslie all right. It was U-twn-u this time and 8:15 that some s r,ii or p-i-sms carried a large stone, weigh ing a o;;;-b. f hundred pounds. 25 feet from l!ie n--rth rn.l ofthe switch track, and placed it Istwo-ii the rails ofthe main track. The ca-t-lx.und soiigcr train left here, and very fortunately had a passenger for Leslie station. The engineer was notified and had slowed up when his engine struck the large stone and the fotward truck left the track. The train was delayed nearly an hour. Had it not been for this one jiasseiiger, a young lady, there would have been a smash up. as the train would hale dashed into the obstruction at full speed. The only theory given for this devilish work is that of rob bery. The officials of the mad will investi gate the matter. Fires and Drought. KoKHLEK, Mich., Sept 2 Terrible forest fires are raging in this vicinity and immense damage has been done to the standing tim-Is-r and to logs amities. A large crowd of men is fighting the big fire southwest from this place.
