John Davidson, To-. aged and respected citi-
zen of this county, died at his residence near
Bethesda, on Sunday last, in the Seth year
Of his age. The following brief account of
his life we copy from the Washington Re-
publican
"Mr. Davidson was born in 1897, near
Annapolis, in Anne Arundel county, Mary
land, where his father had settled after the
disbandment of the old maryland line"
in which he had served through the revolu-
tionary war, and came to Georgetown in
1874 engaging actively in business at very
early age, and by his untiring energy and
integrity soon worked his way into promi-
hence. He was for number Of years a
partner Of the late Francis Dodge, ST., and
afterward formed a copartnership with his
son, Francis Dodge, Jr., under the firm
name of Davidson x Dodge, which firm
was for long time the leading wholesale
grocery establishment in this section of the
country, and afterward conducted an ex1
tensiye Wholesale -four business, engaging
heavily in shipping 10 different points. In
1850 Mr.. Davidson bnilt the Touring mill
now owned and conducted by Messts. Ten
ney g. Son, which he successfully carried on
until infrmties Of old age compelled him
10 retire from active business pursuits, and
he retired TO his beautiful country home in
Maryland, where he passed the remnant Of
his weI-spent days in the quiet enjoyment
of country life, surrounded by five Of his
loving daughters, with the others Of his large
family of ten children in close proximity.
During his business career Mr.. Davidson
was connected with all enterprises looking
10 the advancement Of the community, hav-
ing served unit within few years as trus-
tee Of the Farmers and Mechanics bank,
and after IFS change TO national bank as
one Of its directors. He was until within
the past year or tYo the president OF the
Georgetown and Rockville turnpike lie
served repeatedly In both branches OF the
municipal government, and was for many
years yesiryman Of Christ Church.

Town HaIl.-The annual meeting of
the stockholders of the Rockville Town
Hall Company was held at the Hall on
Wednesday evening last. The meeting was
called to order by the President, and the
annual report Of the directors was read and
adopted. This report, which is very lengthy,
shows that the finances of the Company are
in healthy condition and that the revenues
from rent of the main hall and other rooms
in the building are sufficient to pay the
mortgage debt in Il few years and make the
stock a paying investment.
On motion, a committee of three, consist
ing of Messrs. Geo. Peter, II. w. Talbot
and Thos. Anderson, was appointed to
draft series Of Bylaws for the govern
ment of the company.
The election Of seven Directors, TO serve
for the ensuing year, was next in order, and
on motion, Geo. Peter, Esq, was directed to
cast the votes of the stockholders present
for the old Board, consisting of Messrs
Prettyman, Talbot, Higgins, Bouic, Rab
bit, Offutt and Jones.
After the close of the regular meeting Of
the stockholders meeting of the Directors
was held, when f. B. Prettyman, Esq, was
reelected President, J. J. Higgins, Secre-
tary, and w. Veirs Bouic, Jr., Treasurer.

The Pennsylvania Election.

The Reading Times says Chairman
Cooper is mapping, while the Democrats
are wide awake and aggressive. 1t
does not speak 50 hopefully for Eepub-
liCan success inPennsylvaniaa as looking
healthy and inspiring, and further says
if Mr.. Cooper is engaged in a still hunt
he is making . mistake. We agree
with it, that the Republican party of the
State needs stirring up, or at least SO it
looks 50 from our standpoint.
There is kepubl lean majority in the
old Keystone State any day Of 5000.
The great thing is to get the vote out
and the only way to get it out is to
stir up the people. If Penn sylvana
goes Republican this fall as we belirvr
She will it will have an important bear
ing upon the Presidential campaign.
II will ,Ao" that the Republican party
j. not -o!r2 ~ pieces as has been said,
bVt that "A reverse every now and then
but prepares It for fresh and greater
victories. Pennsylvania never yet cast
her vote lOr an unsuccessful candidate
and if she goes Republican this time
there will be 40 question as to how she
Will 60 next year.

precp,,t ana Practice.


The Democrats of Pennsylvania who
contend that representation should Dc
aoportioned according to the relative
vote of each party and to secure that
end are holding an almost endless
session Of the Legislature, would learn
a wise lesson if they would look at
several of the strong Democratic States
of the Union and see how their Demo
cratic brethren adjust political matters
For instance, commencing with the
alphabet, we would call their attention
TO Alabama, which at the last election
cast 1Ol, ,Sil Democratic votes and 49,"
S39 Republican votes, but which would
have cast more than double the latter on
a full vote and fair count. We notice
that there is not much of a division
there, as the delegation Of eight mem
bers iu Congress is solid for the Demo-
Gratis. Arkansas is the next Demo
cratic State in the alphabet, perhaps
she will make a better showing let us
see. Democratic vote, $3.50; Republi-
can vote, ~, 1852; Greenback vote, 10,
lac; representation in Congress,
five solid Democrats. California,
comes next, a Western Pacific State,
how does she stand? Here it is worse
and more of it Democratic vote for
President in 1880, S0,ll7; Republican
vote, 50, ,273; solid delegation of six
Democrats in Congress.
Georgia is sure Democratic State,
how does il look there? Democratic
vote for President, llS, ,5i9 Republican
vote, "a 600 eight Democrats in Con
gress, no Republicans. But in Indiana
there was an excellent chance for the
Democrats TO show their generosity and
| fairness. How does it look there Re
publican vote, 232, l64 Democratic
vote 225, 522 Independent Greenbaci
vote, Il, $780, members in Congress, nin'
Democrats and four Republicans. Ken
lucky is a representative Democratic
STATE how is it there? Democratic
vote, li1 ,093 Republican vote, lO4, so
delegation in Congress, ,ei ghtDemocrats
two Republicans. But let us 60 dow
on the gulf aud see what kind of {
showing Louisiana makes Here it is
Democratic vote, $3.50; Republican
vote, 81 $50 delegates in Congress, fv'
Democrats and one Republican. 1t i
no use for US to prolong this investiga
ti0n any farther, because we find th
same relative showing in all the Demo
cratic States where Democratic Legisa
lures have had ample opportunity u
lapportiOn representation according Z
the relative strength of political parties
Lust as the Pennsylvania Democrat
claim should be done in that State. Ii
our search through the votes Of th
States, we cannot find single instance
where the Democrats have practice,
THAT !iberaIity they are calling upol
their Republican opponents to practice
and because they do not practice wha
they preach i, a very good reason VIII,
their advice should not be followed

FOR FALL.

You will see many adver-

of Fall and Winter Goods,
and each one will claim to
be ahead OF their competitors
but we will be content to
let the readers Of the RE
PUBLICAN know we have a
Larger Stock than usual, be-
cause our trade demands it.,
and this is an evidence that
our goods are sold at as low
prices as elsewhere, or a lit
tie lower for same quality.
Our Children's Stock is
complete. We do not mean
by that to tell you we keep
the low price shoddy
goods, but we do have a
Good Quality at a very low
price, and yet we sell more
of our Suits from Five to Ten
Dollars.
In our Boys Department
we have some very stylish
garments to show you, while
the young men cannot help
being pleased by making a
selection from our nobby

We have over 40 Styles
to show you in our Men S
Department, and now, kind
reader, just visit US at your
earliest convenience and let
US show vou our goods, and
see if it will not be to our

each other.
This does not give you
much Of an idea Of our Stock,
but if you will stop in at 4th

it will give us great pleasure
to show you our goods and
