THE Harrisburg Patriot of this morn

THE Harrisburg Patriot of this morn
ing is authority for the statement that
r.Wallace would decline the chairman
ship of the Democratic national COIN
mittee in the event of the position being
rendered him. 1t says the senator pre-
fers to give his entire attention to the
canvass in Pennsylvania and believes
that he can do better service for the
party in this way than by being at the
head Of the committee. That the CON-
mittee will be governed by wisdom and
good sense in the selection of chairman
cannot he doubted. 1t is made up OF
some of the best brains and aggressive
leadership in the party, and its organiza'
tion will start the ball rolling on to vic.
tory. Whether the chairman be Mr.
Wallace, or Mr.. Barnum, or Mr.. Scott
or Mr.. Hewitt, or any other of the able
gentlemen who have been more or less
prominently mentioned is this connec
ton, the party it united in its purpose tt
win a grand triumph, and the rank and
file are only waiting for the bugle blast
to move forward and g carry the works
as our gallant chieftain did at Spottsyl
yania. The selection of a chairman viii
robably be made to-day.

WASHINGTON BOROUGH ITEMS.

Tobacco Prospects-Personal Mention.
Washington and it's vicinity takes front
rank in the list of tobacco growing dis
tricts. In every street or road, lane or
alley, and on either side for long distance
is seen tobacco patches, averaging from an
acre to four or five acres in dimensions.
Within the last four weeks there have been
several showers that have been OF much
advantage to the young plants, but they
were not SO prolonged and soaking
as might be wished. The large major
ity of fields are not SO far advanced as
usual at this time of year, but they are
set and no longer liable to the raw
ages of the ant and cut-wOrm.
There are some patches with leaves
from six to ten inches long these arc ex-
ceptions, not the rule. Among the latter
may be mentioned the growing crops Of
Mr.. Isaac Shultz and Mr.. J. Staman, in
the slower end;' their plants are large,
are growing fast and clay out finely.
In some fields the plants are tall, but the
leaves far apart. Just outside the bor-
ough in the northern end, there are n
number of fine fields in what is known as
"Shultztown." They are the property of
the Messrs. Shultz, who are very success
full tobacco farmers. From present ap-
pearances, however, highly creditable
report from this section may be predicted
when the tobacco market opens. The

HANGMAN'S DAY.

Four Negro Murdurers Executed Friday.
George Allen Price, co'ored, the murder
er of Willie Black, was hanged according to
law in the yard of Hamilton county jail,
Cincinnati, on Friday. On the 3Oth day of
April, 1879, he shot and murdered Willie
Black in the Office of the latter, in Cincin-
natl. lie was found guilty of murder in
the first degree and sentenced to be hang
ed May %, this year. On representations
that he was insane Gov. Foster gave
him respite till July9. Price was born a
slave in kentucky thirty-seven years ago.
On the scaffold he was firm and composed.
To several persons in the crowd whom he
recognized he bid farewell. Just before
the black cap was put on he addressed the
spectators saying "Fve tried to live
we'll and die the best l can." The moose
was not drawn tight enough, and when
the trap fell it slipped and failed to break
the victims neck. For ten minutes the
pulse beat. The body when cut down was
taken to the crowded streets and exhibited.
BY his request the funeral will he private
and from his widows home on Sunday.
Henry Ryan, colOred, was hanged in
Waynesboro, Burke county, Ga, for the
murder of colored woman, named Mary
Thomas, in December last. Ryan killed
the woman to get her mOney-abOut six
dollars-wl,ich had just been paid her. He
confessed on Thursday, for the first time
that he committed the murder.
The execution was witnessed by fully
seven thousand PERSONS, principally
colored people. Ryan made long speech
from the gallows, acknowledging his guilt
and the business of his sentence. He said
he was going straight to Heaven that
Iii 1,r1x,
Jesus would have his soul. At half-past
was broken, and he died soon.
Anderson Jones, who was to have been
hanged, was respited until a decision is
made by the supreme court.
Daniel Washington alias Carter, no
toriOus negro desperate and the leader of
a gang of outlaws and horse thieves at
Charleston, S. c., was hanged ut 11:3O
on Friday for the murder of Allen Collins,
a cOlOred witness, who had been sum-
moned to testify against him in i horse
stealing case. The murder was commit
ted on September II, 1877, but Washing
ton was not captured until the early part
| of 1879. He was convicted and sentenced
to death. but appealed, and the appeal be-
ing decided unfavorably, he was hanged.
| The execution was conducted in private
and death was immediate. In his last
moments he was attended by two Catholic
clergymen.
At Goldsboro, N. c., the execution of
Alex. Howard, colored. for the murder of
| an old white man named Babel Aubrey, in
Samson county, on the 2jth of July, 1873,
! took place at 2 p. M. and was witnessed
by about two thousand people. All passed
off in good order. Howard protested his
bitter harangue from the scaffold, but the
crime was fully proved against him by his
own stepson, who was an accomplice in the
deed.

So much embarrassment has arisen
from the present attitude of Collector
Tuition and Postmaster Hartranft that a
personal friend of Hayes called upon the
ex-governor yesterday and endeavOred to
induce him to accept his appointment as
collector. The general wrote to Hayes,
asking that he might be allowed a few
days more before he decided, and then
departed for Atlantic city, where he re-
mained until to-day. The trouble with
Hartranft is very simple. The custom
house is more attractive place than the
postoffice, but he is sure of the latter and
his tenure of the former would he pre-
carious, with more than a probability OF
his appointment being rejected by the
Senate in December. Under the circum-
stances he naturally hesitates to give up a
certainty for an uncertainty. The curious
part of it is that it should take him 50
long to make up his mind to the advan-
tages of bird in the hand. Meanwhile
Mr.. Tuition remains in the breach with a
devotion to the public service that is
touching to behold.
