COMMANDER. IN. CHIEF PALMER has
been in Washington for a few days
looking after the work of getting ready
for the National EncampmeEt. He
expresses himself as highly gratified
at the progress being made, and pre-.
diets, from knowledge gained by visits
to 26 Departments of the Grand Army
of the Republic, that the coming Ma
tional Encampment will be the "high.
water mark of the G. A. R."-that the
attendance will be much larger than
any other Eucampment ever held, OF
that ever will be held. All the vet
erans want to come to Washington be
fore they die, and bring their wives
and children, and they are going tc
swarm hither from every part of the
country.-National Tribune.

THE true issue cannot be lost sight
of. Secretary Foster says: "The
great issue in the campaign is the tar,
i'll. The Democrats are trying to
make Force bill issue, but they are
not succeeding. The life is all out ol
that. The Force bill issue is without
vitality. Whatever Mr.. Harrison has
to say on that subject in his letter ol
acceptance will be wise and we'll said. u
And it will have force enough to kill
the Force bill howl Of the Dana.ites

IMPORTANT TO VOTERS.

The attention of Republican com.
I mitteemen, and all others, who have an
interest in the success of the party at
the approaching election is specially
directed to the following important
matters:
1. That all who desire to vote on
November Sth, must be registered on
or before Thursday, September Sth,
that being the last day for registering.
&. The Act of May 29th, 1891, (P.
I. 134), provides that "it shall be the
duty of the assessors to assess, from
time to time, on the personal applica.
tion of anyone claiming the right to
vote." Under this provision of the
law, the voter must make personal
application to the assessor to have his
name added to the list of voters. The
assessors will be present at the election
house Of each district on Wednesday
Sept. 9TH, and Thursday, Sept. Sth
between the hours of three o'clock and
six o'clock, p. ~, on each Of said days
for the purpose of hearing and acting
upon applications for Assessment and
Registry.
3. No person shall be permitted tc
-" at the election, whose name is
q said list, unless he shall make
oroof of his right to vote as heretofore
.equired by law.
A. In view of the difficulties that
will arise under the new Ballot Law
from want of knowledge on the part Of
the voter, the Importance of having
the voters name on the list, so that be
may have as little trouble as possible
in casting his ballot, will be readily
understood.
b. Therefore, see that every Repub.
liean voter is registered.

BEFORE he got bis own eye set on
political preferment, and before this era
Of wholesale corruption of the press and
the people began, during the scandalous
reign Of Grant, Whitelaw Reid wrote
thus:
In time the poor relations were all
provided for even the presidents father
had post office, and the patronage took
new form. Heretofore it had been
sheer nepotism; now the denomination
came near. and it changed to political
corruption Compacts were made with
senator's and local politicians to control
the convention. The country press was
literally bought with public offices.
Grant has shown how the pros
titution Of great power to base uses can
lower the whole tone Of political society.
That was written in July, 1872, but IL
reads as if IL were concerning this Harri-
son administration in 1892. Mr.. Harri-
son has put his brother in Office, his
father in-law, his sons father-in-law.
his daughters relatives by marriage, his
personal friends and the men who col
lected or expended large amounts Of
money for his election When Grant
wished to repeat his dose of Grantism
for which the great Greeley and tho
greater Sumner, Schurz and many
others left the party Whitela W Reid said
"The country press was literally bought
with public Offices" Would Mr.. Reid
have been ono Of the members Of the
press to accept Office from president
see king reelection when he wrote those
stingiug words2 Could he not have
written Of Harrison in 1892 as he wrote
Of Grant in 1922 He "has shown how
the prostitution of great power to base
uses can lower the whole tone of politi-
cal society" Do not those prophetic
words apply to the case Of the editor Of tn,
Tribune and hundreds of like editors
whom Harrison, not Grant, has bought

they have been on the run. It is pitiful
that they have money TO buy resplendent
uniforms; and yet, have not the courage,
the time, or the ability to proclaim the
reasons for their claim that the people Of
Delaware shall assist the manufacturers
of Pennsylvania TO get richer. 1t seems
that an intelligent man who holds that
curious and vicious doctrine should be
able TO explain why he holds it, But these
