GOVERNOR HILL of New York has

JUDGE SIMOBTOH of Harrisburg

WE are indebted to Prof. Magee, of

place on Thursday, Jane 38, at one

So for it would look as if the Dem
ocrats wars running a Vice Presiden
tial candidate for President. With
Tharaaa's old red bandana they seek
to hide, or wipe away the tears cans
ad by nomination.
OBEOOB is the first State holding an
election since the tariff issue has come
«p, and her incrsaoed Republican ma
jority teaches what her people think
of Cleveland's Message to Congress
and the Mills tariff bill now pending
la that body.
Bmro nominated for a second term,
ma uuiaooilj, as President
Cterelaad hat been, does not make a
•eeiiad election certain by any means.
Preaideat Van Bono, we recollect,
«u onaaimously renominated by the
Dfwiti for a second term in 1840,
ia4 vu baa tea by General Harrison
by a vote ot 294 to 60 in tbe Elector
al vote.
Tn only emblem of the coming
campaign eo far is a red "bandana
handkerchief," made of cotton, tbe
product of the South. The Demo
erotic flourish this "bandana" as the
kind of one need by Mr. Tbnrman,
their nominee for Vice President.
Bat what of the kind need by Mr.
Clare lead, their candidate for Presi
deat ? la it red, white or bine ? As
it is probably not all of these colors
combiaad we suggest blue as tbe
■oat appropriate.
Wa learn it is reported that Mr. F.
H. Monaie of Oakland Tp\ was tbe
delegate in the late New Castle Con
vention who aid not adhere to the
instructions of hia district for delegate
to tbe National Convention from this
eoanty. la justice to Mr. Monnie we
correct thia report. He wus faithfnl
and true to the choice of his district
for National delegate on every rote
taken. Mr. W. H. Campbell, the del
egate from the Concord sub-district,
was the one who did not rote for the
choice of hia district on second ballot.
As one issue of the coming Presi
dential contest will be between wool
•ad cotton, the "bandana" handker
chief, it is probable the Republicans
will gat ap aooe emblem mode of
wool, to be need aa an off.set to tbe
"bandana." Wool growing and man
■factoring need tbe care and protect
ion of tbe people of this part of the
country much more than cotton, be
cause of much more use to the people.
Yet the Democrats seek, in the Mills
hill, to take off all protection giren to
•or wool growers against that of for
eign wool growers.
Cleveland and Thurman.
On Thoraday of last week tbe
Democratic National Convention, as
arm bled at St. Louis, nominated Al
lan Graaberry Tbnrman of Ohio for
Vice President He was born Lynch
harg, Virginia in 1813. The conven
tion then adopted a platform endors
ieg Cleveland's message and the
Mill's bill It starts out with the
tariff plank aa follows:
Tbe deaaocratic party of the United
Statee, in national convention assem
bled, renews tbe pledge of its fidelity
to democratic faith and reaffirms tbe
platform adopted by its representa
tives in tbe Convention of 1884, and
indorsee tbe views expressed by
President Cleveland in his last an
nual message to Congress as tbe cor
rect interpretation ol that platform
upon the question of tutiff reduction,
•bd also endorses the effort of our
democratic representatives in Coo
grees to secure a redaction of excess
ive taxation.
Chief among ita principles of party
faith are tbe maintainnnce of an in
dissoluble union ot freeard ludestruc
tibie Stotw. now about to euter upon
it* eecoTid century of nnexucupled
progress and renown; devotion to a
piou of goverr*n;«.nt regulated by a
written er»oatuution strictly t-pecify
ieg every granttd power and express
ly reserving to the States or people
tbe entire ungraded residue of power;
tbe ennouragemect of a jealous pop
alar vigilance directed to all wbo
have been chosen for brief terms to
enact aoo ex«-su? tbe lawn and are
charged witfc to«- duty ot pret^rving
C«ce, injuring equality and cstab.isb
f iaatice.
Who Will 11 Be?
The Republican National Couycn
tion will meet in Chicago next Tues
day, June 19, and the question on
every Republican lips now is, "Who
will be our Candidate?" Never before
was this question more difficult t J an
swer. "Dark horses" are of increas
ing interest. Some new men have
lately been brought out and entered
for the nomication, such as Ron.
Chanacey M. Depew, of New York,
Judge Gresham of Illinois, aud Gen
eral Alger of Michigan. But they
are so fairly in the field as candidates
that neither could now be regarded as
a "dark horse." In fact nearly every
prominent Republican in the land has
been named for the nomination. The
probabilities therefore are that a can
didate wiil be found among those now
named.
So far it has looked to us as if Sen
ator John Sherman of Ohio, would
have the leading vote on
the first ballot in the Con
vention. But there seems to
be an opinion that he cannot be nom
inated. Judge Gresham, Mr. Depew,
General Harrison of Indiana, Senator
Allison of lowa and General Alger,
of Michigan, all have "booms" and
warm friends pushing them for nomi
nation. And they are all good, wor
thy and able men. It fact the party
is rich in good material. And no one
can say now. as has been said on
former occasions that the nomination
has been "set up" or "fixed" in ad
vance.
Our guess is, that if the State of
New York heartily unities upon and
presents a man to the National Con
vention that he will be the nominee.
And this whether it is one of their
own citizens or not. But it will be
a name that they feel confident can
carry New York. And in this ciso
the Vice Presidency candidate will
be given to the State of Indiana, pro
bably in the person of Gen'l, Ben.
Harrison. The result however may
be very different and a surprise to all.
But that two good men will be nom
inated there need be no fears and less
fears as to their election in November
next.
Democratic County Convention.
The Return Judges of the Demo
cratic party of this county met in the
Opera House here, last Monday at 1
p. m., aud were called to order by
Chairman Roth.

art were nominated, but Mr. Martin
who was present withdrew, and Mr.
Troutman of Stewart's ward in But
ler said he wa> "iithorized to with
draw Stewart's aurue, Co. Com mis
sioner Kelly asserted that Stewart
was a candidate, aud Mr. Roth said
he was not, and that the three men
had settled tbe matter among them
selves Martiu sustained Roth and
Troutman, and Stewart's name was
withdrawn Tom McMillan, then
nominated J'm Gribben, and when
somebody asserted that Jim was sick,
refuted the vile assertiou by saying
that Jim had picked a bushel and a
half of potato bugs last Saturday
afternoon.
A vote was then taken by ballot, and
a» the potato bugs were not counted
in Roth beat Gribben—score 25 to
13
Roth theu made a speech, thanking
the Convention advising the Demo
crats to stick together, and puffing
Cleveland, Thurman and the Red
Ban dana.

Resolutions then read his report,

Cleveland's administration, the nomi
nation of Cleveland and Thurman,
the St. Louis Platform, and the day's
nominations

a member of the State Committee by
acclamation, and Billy went forward
and made one of his characteristic ad
dresses, and advised the Democrats

ures to the Convention, which nomi
nated Lev. McQuistiou for Corgrcfs;
W. H. Hoffman for State Senate;
Louis Gantz and Harry Heineman
for Assembly, and Charley Riley for

vention adjourned.
After the conveution adjourned,
some of the delegates wanted to

missioner was the man "who kept
the hotel", and when told that he was
started for Clearfield Twp, in a body,
and found Charley "quite well" quite
as well as usual.

Oregon Goes Republican.
PORTLAND, June s.—Returns from
all parts of the State accessible by
telegraph indicate that Hermann, Re
publican, for Congress, has 4,000 ma
jority. His majority in Multnomah
county, which includes Portland, is
2.500. The Prohibition yote was very
small. The Republicans made gains
in every county in the State. The
Democrats carry only two counties in
the western half of the State.
It is the largest Bspublican majori
ty since the close of ths war and is
astonishing alike to Republicans and
Democrats. Still more surprising a
result is in the returns from members
of the Legislature. There are ninety
members in both houses. Of these
the Elepnblicans will have about sixty
six and the Democrats about twenty
four.
The People were Awake to the
Danger.
New York Times (Free Trade Dem.)
There is no doubt that the result
of the election in Oregon is partly
due to the prominence given to the
tariff question in choosing a member
of Congress and to the uninstructed
and apprehensive state of mind of the
people on that question, which has
as yet been very imperfectly discuss
ed in that region. The lumber and
wool interests are very prominent in
Oregon, and there has been a good
ideal of shrewd working upon the
fears of those concerned in them lest
they should suffer from the removal
of the duties which is proposed by
the Democratic party.

PARKERS LANDING, June 12, 'BB.
Surreptitiously stole upon Lewis
L. Daubenspeck and his most esti
mable spouse, who are honored deni
zens of Parker township, this county,
on the Bth inst., a multitude of their
friends and neighbors, laden with edi
bles most palatable, and presonts rich
and rare. The object of this congre
gation of neighbors, kind and good,
was the celebration of the arrival of
Mr. Daubenspeck at the 63rd mile
stone on his journey through life.
There was the old and venerable gen
tleman in habiliments of former days,
the decrepit aud ancient lady in her
quaint* but neatly trimmed gown, the
young and vivacious lass oa whose
cheeks the bloom of youth shown
with a crimson luster, and the spright
ly, spiritful lad, athletic and erect,
each aud all in quest of fun and frolic
iu harmony with their tastes and pe
riods of life. The aged, the middle
aged and grave sought enjoyment
in social, friendly intercourse. The
youthful and gay entertained them
selves in all those ways common
among persons of their class.
Thus did all pass the time, or dis
port themselves until a bountiful
repast was spread by the hands of
love and generosity for their delecta
tion. The menu was fit for a king,
and was fully enjoyed and highly ap
preciated by all present, after which
post-prandial exercises ensued by call
ing H. M. Caldwell, Esq , of Bruin
to preside. On taking the Chair, in
a neat and eloquent address, he most
cordially thanked the assembled
guests for the unsought and unex
pected honor this conferred on him.
Rev. Starks, after beiog introduced
made, on behalf of the donors, an elo
quent and touching presentation
speech, tendering to Mr. Dauben
speck the gifts which his friends
and neighbors wished to bestow up
on him as evidences cf their esteem
and regard.
S. P. Campbell, Esq., followed ID
a brief address in which he was pleas
ed to testify to the veneration in
which Mr Daubenspeck is held in his
community.
Mr. McCracken was called upon,
and rcspondad iu a happy manaer by
speaking, at some length, of the value
and importance of a sociability and
an unmixed, unassumed friendship
which obtains, or should obtain
among neighbors.
Mr. John Kamerer being called to
the front, descanted largely upon the
pleasure derived from such social
gatherings, claiming that any thing
which tended to suppress a sigh, to
drive awoy a tear, or to create a
smile or was a moral, mental,
and physical benefit.
Messrs. James Daubenspeck and
Christian Daubenspeck also greatly
gratified their auditors and did hon
or to themselves in a post-prandial
role.
H. S. Daubenspeck then gave an
interesting history of the early settle
ment of Butler county, and the gene
alogy of the Daubenspeck family,
running back to their ancestors, Mr.
George Daubenspeck, Sr., who came
from Cuckß county, and Mr. Samuel
Meals, who came from York county
in 1790, shortly after the Constitu
tion of the United States had become
the fundamental and supreme law of
the land.
Mr. Lewis L. Daubenspeck made
a brief address in which he feelingly
thanked his friends and neighbors for
their uniform courtesy, kindness, and
consideration toward him and his
family.
The Chairman then delivered an el
oquent peroration on the advance
ment of civil liberty in these West
ern Wilds, and exhorted all to sup
port the Republican ticket and pro
tection to American industries in the
pending battle of the ballots as the
surest way in which to enlarge our
greatness as a Nation and to enhance
our present prosperity as a people,
after which he declared the meeting
adjourned sine die.
Thus terminated a very pleasant
and profitable occasion—a bright oasis

About Trespassing.
There are many persons who ima
gine that they can cross a field or en
ter an orchard, fish in a stream which
is the property cf others, and do many
things uf this character which cannot
be objected to by the owner of the
land; that there is a popular idea that
mere walking over a field is not to
trespass It may posbibly not dam
age such property, but it is a misde
meanor to do it, which is punishable
by law. The season is at hand when
the people will be sauntering into the
country, seeking the suburbs for a
walk. To such as will do so; as well
as to all others, it will be safe for
them to understand the law of tres
pass. Persons guilty of trespass art
liable to a fine of not less thau five
or more than fifty dollars. If a party
convicted is too poor to pay the fine,
be can be imprisoned one day for
eachdollar of the imposed penalty.
Presaging a Solid Republican
North.
Boston Traveler (U'jp)
If the Democrats,with all the prep
arations they have made, and with
the peculiar efforts they have put forth
could not carry Oregon, or at least
reduce the Republican majority of
four years ago, it is diflicul t to see
how they can h)pe to carry auy Nor
thern State.
The Results of the Oi! Shut-
Down.
The Executive Board of the 01
Producers' Protective Association
have presented their statement of the
oil business in Pennsylvania, as the
result of the first six months under
the shut-down agreement. Compari
sons are made with the same rnomhs
for the previous year as follow?:
Total production for corresponding
six months of 188(5 87, 11,870,074
barrels; total production for the la=t
six months, 7,554,149 barrels; de
crease in six months' production, 4,-
321,925 barrels. Daily production
for the corresponding six months of
1886 87, 62,254 barrels; daily produc
tion for the past six months, 41,506
barrels; decrease in daily production,
23,748 barrels. New wells complet
ed in the corresponding six months of
1886-87, 1,028; in the last six months
439. Stocks on band at the close of
April, 1887, 31,919,879 barrels;
stocks on hands at the close of April,
1888, 25,084,024; decrease in stocks,
5,871,550 barrels
It will thus be seen that the shut
down movement has really shut down
and that if the same ratio of reduc
tion is maintained for the year for
which the shut down agreemeut was
made, the reductions in" stock will
reach 12,000,000 barrels, leaving but
about two-thirds of B year's supply
at the present rate of consumption in
stock. The Producers' Association
in their report do not state even by
insinuation that the Standard Oil
Company has failed to keep its part
of the contract in the advancement
of the price of oil. The figures show,
however, that the producers have
kept faith to the letter, and if any
agreement about an advance in
price was made the failure to live up
to it may be inferred from the present
price of oil, which is below 80 cents a
barrel, while the producers set the
remunerative point at $1.17. •
The public, however, has not as
much interest regarding any dispute
or alleged dispute between the pro
ducers and the Standard as it has in
the showing that the present produc
tion of Pennsylvania oil is but a
trifle more than one half tLeconsump
tive demand. If higher prices do not
soon result from this condition of the
trade then all the ordinary laws that
govern prices of articles of use and
commerce must be reversed. —Phila
