Under these circumstances it will be neces-

house to be built in parts, or one wing at a

while the rest is being built, by subsequent

The only Way to Peace.


Whatever offers Mr.. Cameron's mana
gers and candidates may make, the du, "
Of the Independents to their cause and
party is clear and their path unmistakable.
They have everything to lose and nothing
to gain by a coalition with the regulars. A
new convention would mean the nomina.
tion of Beaver and the effacenent of the
Independents, for the Cameron machine
is in fine order all over the state, and the
Independents are without organization in
a great number of the districts in which
delegates would be chosen. The Repub-
lican party in Pennsylvania cannot be
saved by any such process, for that would
save Cameron, too, and its continued life
demands that he be permanently retired
from it's control. If Cameron and Cooper
Quay, Magee, Rutan, McManes, and all
the other bosses, big and little,
will free the councils of Republicanism
IN Pennsylvania of their evil pres
ence and go off into o5scurity, the Inde-
pendcnts can afford to treat with the
Irregular" faction. if there should be
anything left Of it. but on no other terms.
They went into revolt to beat Cameron
and secure reform this year. They can
accomplish those desirable ends by reject
ing all overtures from the bandsof bosses,
unless accompanied by indisputable proofs
that the band itself has committed politi-
cal hari kari.

IT is to lie hoped that no one of the
gentlemen to whom the convention re-
ferred the selection If Democratic
state chairman seriously entertains the
idea of postponing his selection until
September. as has been suggested in
some quarters. A prompt appointment
and an early organization are demanded
by the party. No time must be lost.
We feel certain that Chairman Dallas
and the nominees fully understand this,
and we look for the appointment of the
chairman to lie announced within two
weeks at most. 1t is needless to add that
the choice ought to be made by those ap-
pointed to select the man, and he should
be chosen solely with a view to securing
the best organization for the whole party,
not by "Outside" influences nor for
Outside' purposes.

Matters and Things In Salisbury.
Sarah Summers, the insane woman, was
taken to the asylum in Lancaster on
Thursday.
Last week all work at the Gap nicklo
mines was permanently suspended. By
this suspension a large number of mon
were thrown out of employment. Many Of
them have left for the coal and iron min
ing regions, where they will find work
readily. The furnaces are still in full
blast, but it is stated that they too will be
closed in about two months.
Mr.. o. P. Stroth, superintendent Of
Shrack's portable saw mills, while loading
car of lumber here few days ago, slip
ped and fell, breaking his left arm at tho
elbow. He narrowly escaped being killed
at the same time tho heavy crow bar.
which he was using at the time, fell strik-
ing the ground within six inches Of his
head. Had this iron hit him he would
have most undoubtedly been killed in
stantly.

IT seems strange indeed that in a com
munity where SO many newspapers are
published prominent men will sign their
names to a promissory note for 81 500 at
the solicitation Of a stranger sharp un-
der the delusion that they We're signing
a simple receipt. But the credulity of the
misguided farmers is not nearly so as
tonishing as that of their town neighbors
who take the notes at " shave" no
doubt. from an entire stranger without
further inQuiring into the genulneness of
the transaction they are alleged to repre-
sent. Our Mount Joy correspondent
tells very interesting story of stu
pendous swindle prac;iced up that way
by an oily-tongued stranger dishonoring
the honorable name of Smith. and the
sympathy of the reader will very natur-
ally be given to the contrymen who pro-
pose to resist to the last the payment of
the bogus notes.

A SUDDEN STROKE.

Christian Offender Found UncOnsclOus.
Last night about ton o'clock Christian
Oblender was found lying unconscious in
the back room of his fathers (Adam OBJ
lender's) tobacco and cigar store No. 20
West King street. He had been in his
usual health all day and had taken charge
Of tho store while his father went to
attend lodge meeting. A customer hap
pened to enter the store and seeing Mr..
Offender lying there at once gave the
alarm. DR.. Foreman was soon in attend
ance, a carriage was procured and Mr..
Offender was taken to his home OIL Church
street. The doctor, who attended him
nearly all night, states that he is suffering
from a stroke Of apoplcxy. He appeared
to be better this morning but still unable
to move.

The New York Times is the ablest
and most sagacious organ of its party in
the country. 1t sees what some of its
contemporaries at shorter range fail to
see, that there can be no peace with
honor in the Republican party in this
state save in the entire banishment of
Cameron and his friends from its leader
ship. They will agree to no compromise
which contemplates that.

nies that a weak case has been put forth

Ker may he honest in his faith and his
purposes, but better men have been de

ability of the government to make out

Arthur's friend George Bliss in the
prosecution is not viewed with popular
confidence. Dorsey feels easy.

EVENING, JULY s. lss2.
Endorsing the Constitution.

II Mr.. Chauncey F. Black keeps on
making as good speeches as that deliv-
cred to his neighbors on Monday night,
which we print to-day-and he is fully
capable Of it-there will have to be added
to his well merited titles Of "journalist
and farmer" that of orator. For he
speaks with such singular good sense
and force that he will be most effec-
tive factor for his party and its ticket on
the stump. Mr.. Black makes an excel
lent point in directing attention to the
hearty appreciation manifested for the
new constitution by the Democratic
selection of two of its trainers for
places on the state ticket. He might
have added that of the men who shaped
the action of the convention three of its
most conspicuous members-Mr. John
r. Read, who led the forces of Pattison,
Mr.. Malcolm Hay, who was entrusted
with the cause of Hopkins. and Mr..
James Ellis, chairman of the Schuylkill
county delegation and the casting weight
of the assembly-were members of the
constitutional convention. The plat
form, too, covers many fundamental
questions of state politics and plants
the party on safe ground when it de-
mands emphatically aud specifically the
enforcement of the constitution in all
its provisions. That great instrument
was not devised nor adopted asa party
measure, but it owes its adoption mainly
to Democratic votes the opposition to
it came almost entirely from Republican
sources. Its operations have been bene
ficient to the party which now makes its
cause the cause of honest government,
and after the Democracy have gained
control of the state administration the
supreme law of the commonwealth will
he enforced upon every class of subjects
within its borders.

IT seems that the accident on the
Long Branch lailroad, by which alialf
dozen valuable lives were lost, was caused
by the spreading of the rails, and it is
quite natural that the railroad company
should undertake to obstruct i coroner's
investigation which disclosed that it was
running rolling stock of four feet, nine
inch gauge over a road of four feet,
eight inches and a-half. Even Gen.
Grant, who was SO anxious not to testify,
and who protested that he knew nothing
about railroads though he is the figure
head of several-might safely guess
what would be the result of running
machinery wider than the road gauge.

THE spirit of magnanimity and hnsel-
fishness which characterized the Harris.
burg convention is shown in the fact
that four out of the five nominees were
taken from minority counties; at the
same time the convention voted almost
unanimously to adopt a system Of repre-
sentation in future conventions by which
the number of delegates is based on the
Democratic vote and this proposition was
framed by ia subcommittee almost entire
ly from minority counties, on the motion
of a member whose district, being the
most overwhelmingly Republican in the
state, has most to lose in the change to a
more equitable system of representation.

was angry and very noisy because his in
valuable services to the government were
not sufficiently appreciated by certain
copperheads and McClellan-DemOcrats
Shlllow told him several times to shut up,
and reminded him that the Democrats had
done most of the fighting and the Stall
warts most of the stealing, and that it was
Guiteau, Republican, who shot Garfield.
HOgentOgler, however. wouldn't "shut
up," and Shillow called him an ugly
name. Hogentogler went for ShillOw, but
did not stay long, as the latter gave him
an unmerciful thrashing before the con-
ductor and passengers could interfere. The
row will probably end in a lawsuit.
The city police picked up dozen or
more drunken and disOrderly persons dur
ing the day, some of whom were released
on promise of good behavior, and eight of
whom were arraigned before the mayor
this morning. Three of the party, includ-
ing one who had indulged in pistol shoot
ing were mulcted in costs-the others
were discharged with a reprimaud.
Picnic and Fishing Parties.
DR.. Henry Carpenter gave very de-
lightful entertainment to the doctors of
the city and a few other guests at his
Rock Hill cottage along the Cones
toga. The unfavorable weather did not
in the least mar the pleasures of the occa
sion, as the doctors cottage is little
world within itself, containing all that is
necessary for the comfort of the inner or
outer man.
A party of young gentlemen from this
city spent the day AZ Safe Harbor, where
they had . very pleasant time, and in spite
of the bad weather caught thirty bass and
q fall fish, Amos Sourbeer acting as boat
man, Lost and guide.
Pleasant picnics and dancing parties
were held at Rocky Springs, Tells Hahn,
What Glen and other eligible sites along
tho Conestoga, but were not $, largely at.

This morning as THE CRITIC scribe was

spled one OF those intelligent guides who part
their hair In the middle, wear Derby hat and
carry o cane showing some ladies the sights
I'm and around the Capitol. They were I'D
mlring one of tho paintings on the wall OF the
dome. Tho young man who was acting as
guide was describing the painting to his Gus
toners.
"Thnt painting" said he, represents the
Pilgrims landing at plymouth Rock. That old
man you see over there" pointing to one OF
the figures in the painting, fs
senator Hoar-s Great-Grandfatber.
He came over in the May Flower, and 1t ls said
OF him that he was very good old man. That
old fellow TO the loft of him was the
Great Grandfather of senator
Dawes
said the informed guide; "'he too, had very
good reputation for truth and kindness OF
heart. The Senator is said to diner from his
ancient kinsman in some respects, however.
The ladies listened to his story for awhile, and
turning to go away one of them said; "Oh,
myl they were from the state OF Maine." The
painting that they had been admlrlng Is by
sengstack. The guide told them. however,
that Il was by Professor Board, OF West Point
1t Is n representation of the embarkatlon OF
