The Knights of Labor tof Shawnee have
ju-t cause to feel proud of the magnificent
structure they are erecting and will soon
have completed. 1t is not ''shell' of q
building but a massive brick structure
built Of the best of lmaterial and by me-
chsnic-. The locality is the inest in the
City and about the first thing to attract
the eye Aafter reaching Main Street. The
building is about 80x35 feet and three
stories high. The first story is to be. oc-
cupied by = Dry Goods House; the second
is the Opera House and the third the Hall
of the knights of Labor. This magnif-
cent building is monument erected by
the sweat of intelligent laboring men. By
men who earn their living by the sweat OF
their brow. No mortgage hangs over it.
but every dollar is paid as the work pro-
crosses, and as soon as the last nail is driven
the mechanic will receive the last cent oi
the cost of the building.
May God speed this charitoble order
and tie good seed sown in Shawnee take
root in every village in Perry County.

The Fair.

The fair opened last Wednesday and the
weather could not have been more favora~
BILE. There was one great draw back;
oar farmers were all busy getting in
their wheat On Wednesday evening the
buildings were pretty we'll taken up. Flor
al Hall presented a finer appearance than
ever before. The entries IN this building
were large and some very costly paintings
were ON exhibition, Agricultural Hall
was also well filled and the display of
fruits and vegetables was far better than
was anticipated this season. The Dis
play of machinery was of the very best
and was large. Among the articles We
saw here was a feed rack for feeding sheep
indoors. Mr.. A. L. Yost is the inventor
and has applied for patent. Sheep men
pronsunce it the best and most economical
rack they ever saw.
The live stock department was very large
The entries on horses was the largest ever
made at this fair. The display of Cattle,
Hogs, Sheep, &C., was all good.
The racing was good. Some very fine
horses taking part and were evenly mated
The drivers however had the pins set up
and were ready to throw the race any way
that it could be made pay.
Every thing passed off quietly and all
enjoyed themselves. We will as soon as
the award of premiums is made out pub
lish it.

We occasionally hear OF "late day
Democrat" finding fault with us because
We differ with the teachings of the De-
mocracy. We have the greatest respect
for our old Democratic friends and their
principles. We stood shoulder to shoul-
der in the darkest hours of the party,
when the timid Of our ranks deserted
through fear. We published the Demo.
cratic Union, now called the New Lexing-
ton Herald, when it was necessary for Us
and some of the old tried and true Demo-
Gratis to watch the office every night
Threats to mob US on the street were COM
mon, and we had good reason for believing
that the threats were not idle talk
az the scars on others are living witnesses
to prove they have been foully dealt with.
BY who? BY the same "late day Demo-
Gratis" who have been lvilifying Us on ac-
count of our political belief.

BALTIMORE ORIOLE.
Interesting Detail Of the Programme
Prepared by the Monumental City
for the Mardi Gras and Carni~
val in October.

The success of the Baltimore's big cele-
bration last year eXhuberated her citizens
and in mastering all its manifold details
80 perfectly, gained an experience which
this year will be turned to the best posi-
BILE account. The Oriole celebration this
coming October will be an immense thing.
Funds ample ia meet every requirement
having been freely subsribed and placed
at the disposal Of those haqinR the affair
in charge. In most respects the order of
things will be entirely different from last
year, and IN the way of gorgeous and novel
features there will be no comparison be-
tween the two celebrations. For years the
desire has been intense to witness genu-
inc Mardi Orrs parade without being fore
ed to go upou journey of thousands of
miles The fame of New Orleans, Mem
phiH and Mobile as the centres of Mardi
Grss and Carnival festivities has spread
throughout the entire country, and when
il ia promised that Baltimore shall equal
if not indeed surpass the greatest efforts of
Contracts have already been let for the
mystic pageant, the subject illustrated in
an extensive series of tableaux to remain
II dead secret until the night of the Mardi
Gras. Mr.. De Leon, the gentleman who
pas designed and perfected the mystic
features, has had ample experience hav-
ing been at the head of similar undertake
ings in New Orleans and Mobile. Balti-
more pays him $4,000 for this special
feature, but this represents by no means
the whole of the pageant. AS much, il
not more, will be expended in other series
of tableaux, some of them designed and
prepared by the different SOC ieties of the
city, and others gotten up nnder the i'm
mediate direction of the general commit
tee. An eptirely new departure in this
sort of parade will be the use of platform
cars upon which the tableaux will be con.
strucled and which will be run over the
street car tracks. 1t is estimated that the
pageant will reach Il length of three miles
and under electric, calcium and other bril-.
liant lights, VIII preeent scene to be wit
messed hut once in a lifetime. The Mardi
Gras will, however, be but one of the grea
events OF three days festivities. On Mon
day, the 10Th, the new water works are t.
be formally opened with a beautiful dis
play by fountains and all that sort Of thing
In the afternoon the grand daylight parad,
is to occur and will without doubt eclips
the big parade day Of last year, and to d'
that it will indeed be great. In addition
, to the military of Baltimore and adjaC en-
cities, it is expected that several of tn
military organizations en- route to York
town will stop over and participate. Asid

day light in the presence Of scores Of per-
sons conarega,ed from all parts of the
county, with fan unblushing countenance
he engaged in gambling, setting an exam
pie to the youth Of our town that every
parent must shudder at. What citizen
having the future welfare Of their children
at heart could vote for n man to assist in
making the laws Of our State, openly and
de6anily violates the morals of the com.

manner.

county to ask himself before voting "Car

such crimes"
