THE LOCAL
CAMPAIGN
Preparations For the Democrat
Demonstration Tonight.
SINGERLY WILL NOT CONE
The Democratic Candidate For GOyerno
Gives the Miners of This Section the
Mitten-PattiSOn and HenSel.

Politics will reign supreme to night il
town. The Democrats intend to take the.
place by storm and hope with the presence
of distinguished visitors, brass bands and
fireworks to convince the people that th8
Democratic party is the one that should
win at the polls next Tuesday. The ar4
rangements for the demonstration are
certainly on a very elaborate scale, and II
the weather is favorable it will undoubb
edly be an event second to none the Demo
Gratis have held here for several years.
There is one part of the program, how
ever, that will not be carried out. All
the distinguished visitors which have
been heralded by the big tri colored post.
ers will not be upon the scene, and among
the most conspicuous absentees will be
Col. Singerly, who will give Shenandoah
the go-by and proceed to Reading from
Ashland.
The only speakers the committee of ar
rangements could vouoh for to-day were
Governor Pattison and Attorney General
Hensel, with possibility of James M.
Beck, of Philadelphia, being present.
Why the Democratic candidate for
Governor will not come here to night to
address the mine workers on the issues Of
the day is not explained. Pattison, Bedk
and Hensel are brilliant men and make
good speeches, but none of them is the
one who aspires to the position of Cover
nor of this Commonwealth or any other
office now within sight and his failure to
appear will be an ugly disappointment.
Col. Singerly, Governor Pattson and
their party left Harrisburg at 755 o'clock
this morning and reached Reading at 10
| o'clock. Their stay there was limited to
| five minutes and the party proceeded to
| Pottsville, arriving there at II o'clock. AT
| l:30 this afternoon the party left the
| county seat by a special p. 6, II. train for
Tamaqua, and at o'clock start was
made for Ashland, arriving there at four.
A message from Ashland received this
| afternoon announced that upon the close
OF the Ashland meeting the party will
divide itself, Col. Singerly and following
| shaking the dust of the coal region from
his heels and proceeding on the regular
p. & r. train at 6.12 p. m. to Reading,

following, in all probability including
Hensel and Beck, will leave Ashland al
| the same hour for Mahauoy City. Governor
Pattison will remain here over night,
