arily organized with Hon. VIM. Ellmaker
as president and Geo. H. Townsley, Sec
retary. w. U. Hensel and John A. Coyle,

the issues of the campaign and the i,npor-
tance of efficient organization, and George

The Democracy of the three Earls, and
indeed Of the entire eastern end of the
county, in a minority as they are, are
alive and active and good report may be
expected in November from the Welsh
mountains to the Furnace hills.
The City Campaign Committee.
A meeting of the city campaign com.
mittee-cOmpOsedo of the county and city
committees, and the conference commit
tees of the several ward clubs in this city
will be held at II. Zaepfel's saloon in Cen.
tre square at 8 o'clock this evening. Al
the meeting is called to consider the ques-
tiOn of establishing central headquarters
reading rooms, &C., and the uniform equip
ment of the Hancock clubs, it is highly i'm
pOrt;,nt that there be complete represel-
tatiOn of the different organizations. Ii
such wards as the committees of fconferenct
have not yet been appointed, the presi-
dent, secretary and treasurer of the re-
spective ward clubs will be expected to rep.
resent the same.
The Republican Return Judges.
The meeting of the Republican return
judges to be held in Grant hall next Satur
day at II a. m. under the call of president
John II. Fry. ''tO the end that whatever
fraud and unfairness may have been prac
ticed at the late primary election Of ou
party may be corrected" promises to be
a we'll attended and lively affair. Ton
Davis s friends laugh at the idea of his being
thrown overheard and Squire Snader'.
hackers feel entirely serene. They say they
can safely appeal to the dire need o.
entire harmony in the party at this time
and that the return judges will not cOun
tenance the Ner- Era a-Eraminer-Sensenig
Johnson combination to count Davis out
by calculating the frauds On one side ani
ignoring them on the other.
A very general feeling in the party is ex.
pressed by a correspondent of the Neu
Era, who writes to it
Standing without and looking on at the
restless struggle of the desperate men wht
methods, feel as if never again cOulC
lican party to vote its ticket.
Then the writer goes On to appeal to San
Matt Fridy, John NJ. Stehman, Steve Girls
singer, John High, Jake Kready and Ber
Longenecker, as men of aspirations and in
tluence, to interfere and vindicate some Oi
the wrongs committed, to control "their y
return judges to secure investigation ant
redress, and finally they are threatened
"The people will not hold those guiltles!
who assume to be the leaders in their polit
ical battles; if yon are quiet now they
think you approve of these methods ant
expect to be nominated in the very same
way"
