What Should HIVE Been Done.

The executive committee of the state
committee seems to have considered the
object of its assembly at Greensburg TO
have been the decision as TO the regularity
OF Ratferty's nomination for Congress.
We have considered the issue TO have been
not as To this, which there was no good
reason TO dispute, but rather as TO whether
the people of the district had reasonable
cause to rebel against the imposition upon
IN In regular way of candidate for
congress not living in the district. 1t does
not greatly matter how regular a nomi-
nation Ia, If it 50 offeuds the sense of the
voters In the district as to endanper
the election OF the candidate selected
for them. The Democratic party at large
has reasonable right to demand that the
nominations for Congress shall be such as
70 command at least the Democr tic vote
OF the district; and it was very proper for
the state committee to intervene in this
district where a nomination had been made
by the conferrees that was very reasonably
Questionable 10 the voters, and that would
not command their support. The con.
fsrrsts had right TO choose man outside
Lancaster daily intelligencer. [volume] (Lancaster, Pa.) 1864-1928, 1886-10-26

OF the district; but the voters have a
right to refuse to vote for him. With
these rights standing in the way of the
return of a Democrat TO Congress in a
Democratic district, it seems 10 us that the
state committee had a right 10 recommend
the substitution of candidate who would
have q better chance Of election and tins.
we think, should have been ITS action, n
any such man was To be found.

Lie After Lie

The Philadelphia Prrss has again come
to grief in its lying. 1t has come to he So
habitual in this journal to declare what is
false that it can hardly be the expectation
of its readers to read what is tru" lu IT'S
columns of men whom it exposes.
One would have thought that the severe
lesson it had in the result OF lis treatment
of Postmaster Harrity would hlv"
led it TO be reasonably cautious
in fabricatng fales tales ut IrS
Democratic foes. But lessons are
equally lost on the natural rascal and the
born fool. The conductor of the Press
may be both or either just according t'
the charity with which We regard his
demonstrated inclination to print what Is
false Of his political opponents. That he
only realizes these gives sound color jn the
belief that he is a scamp, and the mrt.lotyN
of his ISLANDERS affords good reason for con-
sidering him to be a very weak-hraded one.

ANNEXATION OF MANCHESTER
This Proposition to be Considered To
Morrow Night.

The Board OF Public Interests will meet
in the Council Chamber tomorrow night
to consider the question OF the annexation
Of Manchester, which was referred TO them
by the City Council. This Is a very impOr-
tant matter, and will no doubt require a
great deal OF time for consideration, "a so
many questions which have bearing on the
subject will arise. II is supposed that the
first meeting will be merely preliminary. in
which the line Of consideration TO be adopted
Will he marked out.
A proposition TO annex Manchester to
Richmond was made several years ago, at a
time when that city was the owner Of
valuable water-power, and was the subject
Of discussion here for months aud months.
The advantages OF annexation were ably
and vigorously presented, but many OF the
representatives OF the outer wards OF this
city opposed the scheme, fearing that with
the incorporation into this municipality OF
additional territory, there would be de-
mands for public Improvements beyond the
ability OF the city to supply. since then
the condition OF affairs both in Richmond
and Manchester has greatly changed, and
many Of the arguments pro and con. will
now be made on new grounds.

TIE ARMORY FIRE.
Its Cause no Longer DOubtfaI-COm-
pany AS Loss.

There is scarcely any doubt about the
cause Of the fire at the Armory night before
last-it came from a lighted cigar-stump.
After the fire was put out Captain Henry
C. Jones and a member OF the Knights
Assembly raked up the ssw-dust for about
twenty feet on the floor OF the hall. and in
that space found the remnants OF thirty-tiye
cigars and cigarettes which had been thrown
on the floor, doubtless by delegates OF the
Assembly on entering the hall or on the
assembling OF the body.
The Grays have $1,000 insurance on their
room, which, 1t is thought, will fully cover
their loss. Their loss cannot be accurately
determined, however, until the ceiling,
which is finished in polished hard woods,
has had a chance to spring, il so inclined.
II it does spring and warp 1t will have to
be taken down and replaced, and in this
event the loss will be heavier than other
wise.
Company BIS loss will be slight, and Is
fully covered by insurance.
The damage TO the Armory will be re-
paired by the company IN which the build
ing Is insured.

strset. Cleaning and sweeping.

The prolonged drought has caused our
streets to become very dusty and unclean.
The Board Of Health, under whose drec-
ton the street-sweeplng Is done, are making
great efforts to repair this condition, and,
with the hearty cooperation OF Our people,
will be able TO put the principal streets In
very presentable condition by Thursday
morning.
Chapter XXXVIII., section %, City Ordi-
nances reads as follows: every person
occupying a house or lot shall, as far as
such lot extends, cause the paved gutter or
drain in street or any public alley oppo-
site thereto to be constantly kept open and
free from obstruction; and II he fail so to
do may be fined not less than one dollar
nor more than ten dollars and FOR each
day after the first that such obstruction re.
mans shall be fined not less than two nor
more than twenty dollars"
The President Of the Board OF Health
would be pleased for all the citizens to OBJ
serve the requirements OF this ordinance
strictly during the work, and not only
sweep the pavement in front OF their pre-
misses, but also sweep across the cutters
into the street.
Ii Is hoped also that the Committee on
the Fire Department will see their way
clearly in carrying out the suggestions OF
Or. Stratton, and Tuesday flush the princi-
pal streets with the engines OF that depart
ment, especially portions OF Broad, Main,
Grace, and Franklin.
DR.. Stratton, having been authorized by
the City Council, has made an agreement
with Messrs. Cottrell & Burroughs to run
six sprinklers between Elba station and the
Fairgrounds for three days, II necessary.
beginning on Monday morning, and will
throw the whole street.sweeping force into

and, If the line Of the military procession

Tne military, excepting the Stuart Horse
Guard, will on Thursday morning 90 out
