A REMARKABLE SURVEY.

Engineer Clarke Who Mapped Out tho
Route OF the Pennsvlvania Railroad
Between Pittsburg and Harrisburg in
thu City Visiting Friends
R. W. Clarke, of Blairsville, was in the
city yesterday visiting friends Mr.. Clarke
had charge of the engineer corps that made
the successful survey of the Pennsylvania
Railroad between Harrisburg and Pitts
burg. The initial attempts to connect
Eastern and Western Pennsylvania were
very unsatisfactory. In the year 1s47, after
q number of fruitless efforts by other
well known engineers, Mr.. Clarke,
then resident of Blairsville
was put in charge of an engineer corps, with
instructions to choose the best route possi-
bic over the mountains. His lines, when
finished, were at once accepted, and form
the present route of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Among Mr.. Clarke's assistants in
this survey was President Roberts, at that
time youth who was rodman for the corps.
Mr.. Clarke, who shortly after the compile
tion of the Pennsylvania Railroad, followed
the path of empire and located in Des
Moines, Ia, is now on visit to his old
time friends at Greensburg, Blairsville and
Pittsburg.
Though well toward his four score years,
his memory of the summers spent on the
Allegheny Mountains in search of suit
able route to connect the extremes OF this
State is very vivid. The veteran engineer,
who was on intimate terms with Miner
Roberts, Edgar Thomson and Tom Scott, is
well preserved for his years. 1t is delight
to hear him tell of the times long gone and
the men who half century ago were at the
front in developing the resources of West
ern PENNSYLVANIA. The father of R. w.
Clarke was canal commissioner OF Penn
sylvania when the canals which Joined
Pittsburg and Harrisburg were constructed,
and was reelected to this position for up
ward of 20 years
He was the compeer of Thadeus Stevens
and James Buchanan, and with them was
member of the first constitutional conven-
tion of the State. Old timers will remem-
Der James Clarke, who hailed from Ligo-
nier, and who in his day was a great force
in the politics of Westmoreland county.
When representing Ligonier in the State
Legislature, away back, he originated the
term log rolling, which has become almosta
necessity in political parlance.
In a speech in Harrisburg James Clarke
illustrated point by reference to the GUS
toms of farmers out in the Ligonier valley,
when all had to combine for common in
terests. The log rolling idea at once took,
and became popular phrase which Is not
likely to die. The father was proud of his
part in founding the public school system
of Pennsylvania. and the son is no less
proud in engineering the mountain division
of the Pennsylvania Railroad.

LARAMIE, WYo., July 29-There are
the best OF reasons for believing that all the

in the johnson county invasion, except
about eight, will be tried on the charge Of
numbering Nate Champion. The cases
against 35 of the men will probably be nolle
pressed, and only the organizers and leaders
of the expedition will be called before the

1t is expected that the prisoners will be
taken to Cheyenne Saturday. Some of the

thusiasm the Order of the Evening
A Successful Celebration,

The peoples party ratified the
nomination of Weaver and Field for
president and vice president of the
United States, at this place last Satur-
day night. 1t is singular fact that
the nomination of Harrison and Reid
by the republicans and Cleveland and
Stevenson by the democrats failed to
raise enough enthusiasm in either of
the old parties to make any public
display whatever, and it remained for
the peoples party to turn the eagle
loose. In the afternoon last Saturday
the sturdy yeomanry of Boise valley
began to arrive, and by evening the
main street was fairly crowded with
enthusiastic admirers of new party.
"A large flag spanned the street, upon
which was pinned white silk banner
the names of "Weaver and Field"
About dark the cannons began to
boom amid brilliant pyrotechnical
display, and a familiar voice which
sounded wonderfully like our friend
cooper proposed three cheers for
weaver and Field, which were given
with will. The Caldwell band ron.
dered several of their choicest selec.
lions. Material had been gathered for
an immense bonfire, but as the wind
had slightly raised it was considered
dangerous to light it, and tina. feature

AN EXPLANATION.

During the past three weeks the
FISHERMAN & FARMER has failed
to appear. Our press having received
a severe break We were forced to ship
it to the shops for repairs, and for
this reasoD we were unable to issue
paper.
We trust sur patrons will overlook
the delay, aud realize the fact that
accidents a;e unavoidable.
We shall en- leayor to make the
FISHERMAN & FARMER in the future
a paper worthy the encouragement and
patronage ofall.

Fourth Of July WAS a memorable
day in the history of Edenton.
Never has the Fourth been more
appropriately observed, and never
before in this place were there such
loud demonstrations Of enthusiasm
and patriotism.
At Sunrise there was q National

chime of bells-And well did those in
charge do their work.
The town was beautifully decorated
with the stars and stripes and bunting
of various description. Extending
across Broad aud King streets were
three mammoth arches upon one Of
which was inscribed the word
WELCOME" beneath hung the cid
Liberty Bell sc.
At 8 O clock people began to crowd
the streets, coming from every di-
rection-ssme walked in town, some
came in carts and buggies. some by
sail boats. while every steamer and
train that arrived brought all they
could we'll carry.
The steamer frsm Williamson,
GAINESVILLE, Windsor snd Plymouth
brought over large delegation.
The Steamer Wagner arrived with
a large number of Representatives
from Roper, Pantego, Mackeys Ferry
Gresweli, Columbia and other paints

The Steamer Roberts came in from
up Chewsa River With representatives.

twenty il number.]
The parade was as follows:
