BEIDLEMANGETS REAPPOINTMENT [Continued From First Page.] for sheriff unless Stucker was accepted by the McCormick element. Governor Keeping Out Not only has the Governor shown that he is not waging the campaign on j tho Republican organization alleged by the Democratic dust throwers, but he declared to friends before leaving for San Francisco on Monday that the editorial in the Telegraph on Saturday to the effect that he did not propose to mix in Republican primary contests and did not want to be harassed by contending leaders met his views exactly. Senator Beidleman was congratu lated to-day on his reappointment. In addition to the senator the Governor reappointed Joseph L Lemberger, of Lebanon, and Thomas Polk Merritt, of Reading, to the Wernersville board, and reappointed J. C. Hall, West Ches ter; John O. Gillmore, Philadelphia, and S. R. Crothers, Chester, to the Spring City Hospital board. Democrats Annoyed The registration yesterday gave the Democratic bosses a nightmare last night and they got up this morning in a state of mind that was aggravated by the Beidleman reappointment. The mourning yarn spinner endeavored to explain the big Republican regis tration by saving it was due to some thing it calls "factionalism" in the Re publican party. This was another clt:msy effort, because everyone knows tiiat the Democratic party In Harris burg is split up the back worse than any locust ever found clinging to a river front park tree and yet the Democratic registration was away down. In spite of the yarn mill's state-1 ment that the Democratic registra tion was "normal." men active In the i Democratic machine were giving fits to ward and precinct bosses because they failed to make a showing yester day equal to the Democratic regis tration on the first registration last year. It might have been said that last year there was the pleasurable anticipation of a fat campaign fund to stimulate Democratic registration. Harrlsburg Democrats are disgusted with the chicanery in the management of their party affairs here and sore over the scheme to make an alliance with the Washington party remnant. It will be recalled that many Demo crats repudiated by their votes in the Fourth ward and other wards in Har rlsburg last year the "alliance of hopes" with the Roosevelt men last year. They are also indignant at the scheme to throw nominations out of the party to the corporal's guard of the Washingtonlans. The Fading Regiment The Washington party regiment has pretty nearly passed, judging from the registration. The militant organization that turned things upside down here a couple of years ago has disappeared from the trenches of party activity and the wagons of the supply train atand empty. There is nothlng'for the Washingtonlans because everything that could be promised has been ■ewed up by a couple of lieutenant colonels who are trafficking with the machine wing of the Democracy. In some precincts, according to the Democratic returns, there were no Washington men enrolled, and in dls. tricts which were bastions In 1912 they could not even get a color guard. These may he fighting days In poli tics, but the real fighting is going to be in November, and the Democrats and Bull Moosers, whether they enter the battle singly or in a new "alliance of hopes," are going to be chased Into the marshes of despair before a solid Republican front.

A damp track slowed up the races a little but every heat was fast and the crowds were well pleased. A fire works exhibition this evening will end the festivities. Yesterday when more than 8,000 visited the fair grounds all tttendanc* records were broken. Weather con ditions were ideal and the races were exciting.
