FUN ON BAER'S ISLAND.

AuVn6 tn0 MorEy 1UCquS00t0.
Yesterday was visitors day on Baer's
island, where the Tucquan club is en-
camped, and great throng of the friends
of the club visited the camp. Tho mem
bers we're put to to feed their guests, but
managed to entertain them Hospitality and
lavishly. -.
The event of the day was the laying of the
corner. stone of the pavilion, which was
done with due formality, the occasion
being further signalized with historical
and dedicatory addresses by W. A. Wilson
and A. c. Reinoehl. esq. At 10 O'Clock,
noon, in accordance with pre-arraugement
the club drank the health Of their distin.
guished member, DR.. J. p. Wickersham,
minister to Denmark, who at tho same
moment was pleiging tho health of the
Tucquaners in the palaces of Copenhagen
with kings and mobiles in copious drafts Of
stout Danish wine.
A great feature Of the present campaign
was the serenade on Tuesday night to
Major Reinoehl by band of musicians
headed by that sweet singer, Mr.. L. Haldy.
Reinoehl appeared at his cottage window
in an aesthetic costume and in q brief
speech of execration frankly and forcibly
admitted that the music was the worst he
ever heard. ... ......

For several days past workmen have
been engaged in tearing down tho old

GEN. BEAVER 10 one of the kind who
when he opens his mouth, puts his foot
in it, He seems to have felt the neces.
sity of explaining his Bucks county
speech, in which he was reported to
have said Don Cameron was" small
man." He now says he 'tdid not say
that Cameron was small man." He
said "he wasn't big man, but little
man, referring Of course to him physi
cally." It did not matter materially
whether Beaver had said he was a
small man or 's little'' man. But
it does matter that Beaver meant that
he was only physically small. He wants
it understood that he referred to Cam
eron physically-"of course" Morally,
politically and financially Beaver no
doubt regards Cameron as . very big
man. When Beaver was understood to
mean that Cameron was a small man
Beaver grew to be, q larger man in the
public eye, but sinceit Is understood that
Beaver regards Cameron as q big man
except phyacally, Of course, Beaver Is
again dwMfet to the stature of q small
man, whom Cameron can handle at his
own sweet win and according to the ca
prices Of q tootb-achy disposition ., :.

faith, and though at first he voted
afirmatively, he changed his vote before

not ito recognize him for this pur-
pose, but falling in this clerical
error - was discovered, to the effect that
in calling the roll On the proposition de-
claring M. Tillman not entitled to q

than q quorum. Keifer was equal to the
emergency, and directed his name to be
recorded in order to make quorum,
though another roll call had intervened
in the meantime which barred Keifer
from doing this. That eminent bulldozer
persisted in his right to overrule law
and precedent SO vociferously and boist-
erously as to get the entire House in an
uproar, shiver an mkstand with his
gavel and scatter the contents over
the clerks and papers. Robson
and Reed with great difficulty ex-
tricated him from his parliamentary
debris and after he had sufficiently re-
covered from his rage to discern friend
and foe, the business Of Congress went
on with slight prospect of the members
getting home to vote at the fall election.

THURSDAY EvEH1No. JULY 20. loea|
The PennsylvanIa Canpaign.,

The Pesnsylvanis Campaign.
The iinality of negotiations betWe4
the Republican factions fairly makes up
the issues of the campaign. It prom
ises to be ono Of the most important and
in all profanity ~ hcsk exciting ever
known in ous stats politics The deter.
mination Of the Democr,cy, TO restore
honest government to Otheoommonwealth
contributes as much TO tKfS condition of
things as the differences which disturb
our opponents. With these latter we
have less to do than with the efficient
organization of our own party. The
platform and the candidates of the De-
inOcracy are such as to enable it to ap-
peal with confidence to the judgment Of
honest citizens, hekaFdie(s d Rlpublieap b
dissensions, and without waiting for
them to be healed or aggravated. For
more than two score years the Republi-
can party has been in possession of our
state government and responsible for its
administration. At the close of that
period its history cannot be rsvieved
without sense of shame. A very large
and respectable element of the Republi-
can party itself, within and without the
borders of the state, agree with the De
mocrscy in eondemning the men and
methods which have degraded Pennsyl-
vania in the sisterhood of states, which
have bartered away her bitthright, plum
dered her treasury, debsuched her Legis.
lature, dwarfed her In the councils Of
the nation, and prostituted her executive
power to personal and partisan ends. In
the movement to relieve her and her
people from all these and all that has
followed them, the Democratic party
must lead, while it invites the co-cpera-
tion of all who sympathize with this
purpose. The best assurances that this
purpose is to be faithfully adhered are to
he found in the platform and candidates.
The pledges of the one and the records
of the other present the issues upon
which the campaign is to be conducted.
They need no eulogium nor exposition.
Economy and honesty are the demands
of the hour, and how can they better be
secured in the state government than
by the induction into its Offices of the
kind of men who have redeemed Pbila-
delphia from the Official thieves 80 lately
holding high carnival and undisputed
sway in that city? The o0icial tests of
fitness and integrity can never become
superanuated. The salutary provisions
of the new constitution which have been
saving booh 10 the state, can never be
extended to all its wants until the gov
ernment is administered by those who
fully sympatbize with it's spirit. True
civil service reform must begin in the
election to Office OF men who owe no
allegiance to boss or ring, and who will
not betray the cause of the people.

Gerrymanders are all wrong. Those
who resort to them should perish by
them. While one party indulges in the
vicious practice the opposition may be
depended upon to retort in kind, This
is human nature, and politics are not
yet purer than religion. But we have
always maintained that the party which
would make AM honest apportionment,
guided by the map and census table only,
would not only do,itself credit, but win
great political advantage. This is what
the Democratic party of this state has
pledged itself to and all of our influ-
ence shall be exerted to have this pledge
faithfully and honestly carried out.
Our state is not now fairly apportioned.
The congressional and senatorial dis
tricts are gerymanders Of the vilest sort
made up in the interest of the Republi.
can party. While the proposed South
Carolina appointment-which is no
doubt partisan-was being abused in
Congress, by men guilty of the same
thing in their own states, some one
should have presented . map showing
the lines of the Eleventh congressional
district in Pennsylvania, reaching from
near the Susquehanna across to the Della
ware, and presenting an outline which
in monstrosity is not equalled by
anything grown in earth, or sea or
air. Counties, and even cities were
carved UP to make il embrace
nearly all the Democratic msjorities in
northeastern Pennsylvania. Some of
the other phsSes of our apportionment
are not much better, and in New York
and Ohio there arc like exhibitions of
unscrupulous partisan greed. The World
has pointed put that {" ip the eight Be,

Pasha. The khedive apparently trusts
them but it may be he is endeavoring to

Arab Pacha maintains that the bOmbard.

sultan and that he was fully justified BY
law and by the decision of the council of
ministers in replying to tho British fire.
TIE khedive, he argues, in accepting
English soldiers as body guard, has
shown that he considered the Egyptiau
army as enemies. By international and

The New York Cash store.

It is a self-evident truth that people will patronize the store where they can secure the most and best goods for the least money. aad that is the reason why SO many flock to the New York Cash Store. By referring to the handseIns advertisement in another column, 1t will be seen tha. Mir. Reich mantains his reputation as THK originator Of LOW PRICES in Russellville, and proposes ts stand by his motto: "The Language of IT usia h piAnpio." It would require column after column of the space In the DEMOCRAT Tn which to enumerate the many articles tobe found on the shelves and counters of the N. Y. c. s., and to quote prices, but faint ides of the magnitude of the stock and the aston- ishingly low prices can be formed by q perasal of Mir. Reich's mammoth "ad. {" We cannot. however, end this notice without directing the particular atten- tion of the people to the very superior line of staple and fancy dry goods, trimmings, hosiery, notions, boots and shoes, fine hats, elegant clothing. gents furnishing goods, etc., all specially se- lected by Mr. Reich from stocks in first hands. Another important fact to be considered is, that Mir. Reich bought his goods cheap and can afford to give the people the benefit of the advantage he possesses. Give him call.
