The Druggists Enjoy an Excursion to
Long Island.
They Form a state Organization
for Business.

Some years ago the druggists of Maine
were organized into state association, but
interest in the organization was lost and for
five years or more no meetings have been
held. Last June, at meeting of the Ken
nebec Valley Druggists Association, steps
were taken to revive the state association.
A committee was appointed to fix date and
arrange for an excursion to Portland. All
druggists in the state were invited to attend.
The 10th and 18th Of July were the dates
fixed. Messrs. j. W. Perkins & Co., and
Cook, Everett & Pennell, learning of the in
tended visit to Portland, wrote to Mr.. Bow
ditch, secretary Of the Kennebec Valley AS
ISOLATION, offering to take hold and help en-
terrain the visitors.
Some twenty or more of the druggists. with
their ladies, arrived Wednesday night, and a
dinner complimentary to the visitors was
given in the evening by the wholesale nrms
of JSlE. Perkins & Co. and Cook, Everett %
Pennell at the summer club house of the
Portland Club on Diamond Island. A num-
Der of city druggists and representatives of
the wholesale houseswere present. The &C.
casion was entirely informal and every way
enjoyable. While the gentlemen were at the
islands the ladies of the party were given a
carriage drive about the city during the eve
ming.
Yesterday morning at 10 o'clock large
number arrived from all over the state. Ac-
cording to instructions they met at the Fall
mouth hotel and, accompanied by Chandler's
band, proceeded kto Custom House wharf.
where they were taken on board the Emita,
bound for Long Island. Messrs. Cook, Ev-
erett & Pennell and j. w. Perkins & Co.
closed their stores. All the clerks went on
the excursion, and many of the city drug
gists were in the party. Following is list
of the visitors:

for the Ex- Ex-Governor-Ratifca Meef-

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DISPATCH,
BEDFORD, July 2.-The news of the NOM
ination OF Ex-Governor Pattison caused
great enthusiasm among the Democracy
here Long before the news was received,
Democrats and Republicans visited the diff
ferent telegraph offices to learn the result.
On receipt of the news, the bulletin boards
were scanned by crowds of Demo-
Gratis and Republicans who all agreed
that it was the STRONGEST nomination
the Democrats could make. Republicans
were outspoken, and many sang words of
praise for the nominee. Among the Re-
publicans who say they will vote for the ex-
Governor are James Cleaver, J. W. Galley,
j. C. Russell and Charles Willoughby.
Scores of other Republicans equally as
prominent have signifed their intention Of
voting for Pattison, but desire that their
names be not made public.

honors of the Scranton Convention to say that
Pattison and Black form the strongest combi-
nation that could be made for the fight against
the Floater fund ticket The Demo
cratic nominees will lack nothing of the full
measure OF earnest party support. and they VIII
attract thousands of independent votes neces-
sary to the defeat of Quays personal candl-
date. To the support of Pattison will rally all
the elements of reform, and what more inspir-
ing name could there be to the old-line Demo-
Gratis of Pennsylvania than that of the worthy
son of Jeremiah Black?
The New York Press will saw:
William L. Scott's mugwump candidate for
Governor of Pennsylvania, Robert e. Patt1son.
received the Democratic nomination for that
ofnce to-day in the Scranton Convention.
Pattison is what DR.. Halstead called
Campbell, of Ohio-not merely an accident,
but sort of anecdote. He is reminis-
cence of the tidal wave OF 1882, when he and
Cleveland and Butler were made Governors Of
their respective States by the Mugwump Skin
mish that preceded the battle of 1882. He is q
cold, narrow-minded, cross-grained young man,
whose career as Governor of Pennsylvania was
dominated almost entirely by that unscrupu-
lous, scheming and artful Democratic politi-
clan, Lewis e. Cassidy, who had been associated
with the worst period of Philadelphia
politics, and whom Pattison appointed
Attorney General of the State in defiance OF
tempest of indignation and the protests from
reputable citizens of all parties. For all that.
such success as did attend his administration
was largely due to Lew Cassidy's shrewdness.
The Morning Journal will say: The Penn
sylvania Democrats assembled in State Con-
vention at Scranton yesterday lost no time In
taking the very step toward victory which the
Morning Journal predicted only a short time
ago. They have put into the field once more
the old ticket which, in the campaign OF lSs2,
brought the Democratic party back into power
after % years absence from it. The nomination
OF Pattison and Black for the offices of Gov
ernor and Lieutenant Governor in which they
did such signal service a few years since,
offers strong guarantees of success in the COM
ing contest.
The Sun makes no comment on the nomi-
nations.
