- one of the four counties whicn make
up the Fourth Congressional District, a
district which, until young Mahlon Pit
ney carried It two years ago, ~rejoiced in
the distinction of being the banner Demo-
cratic county of the State. 1t would seem
to the unprecedented observer that in this
campaign the Did Fourth was struggling
for the distinction OF being 1.-THE banner
silver district OF the State This pleas
n little borough is. perhaps, the most
important municipality In the county. It
has a population Of 1900, Of which 1,os7
are voters, and 1t is essentially a railroad
and manufacturing town. Here it is that
the Delaware. Lackawanna and Western
Railroad Cempany's main line TO Bing-
hampton, Syracuse and Buffalo leaves
the Morris and Essex and starts up
through the Water Gap and New York
State. Here locomotives and crews are
changed, which neeessitates the employ
ment of many men who are obliged TO
live upon the ground. Washington, more
over. has q silk mill and three piano and
organ factories, which give employment
to 700 men. The surrounding country is,
Of course, devoted to agriculture and the
farmers coming into town mfngie with
the railroad men and the employees of the
factories exchange views upon the pofiti-
cal situation until it has come to pass a
good idea of the prevailing political sen
timent In the county can be had in here.
Especially is that SO when any unusual
event brings the people of the surround
ing country into the city in any great
numbers.
Such n event occurred yesterday. The
Improved Red Men, a fraternal order Of
considerable strength in this section of
the State, celebrated Labor Day. There
were at least 5000 strangers IN town. In
the morning there was a procession of
the order. in which 1900 participated and
Of which State Senator CHRISTOPHER +.
States was grand marshall. In the after
noon there was what one gentleman from
over the mountains called s'speakin' exer-
cises.r These were held in a large grove
just outside of the city, and when ex-
Congressman Johnston Cornish as chair
mar introduced the first speaker there
were about 2,000 people before the speak
ers' platform and IN the grove. The first
two addresses were made by officers of
the order and were entirely upon matters
connected with the Red Men. Then Mr..
Cornish introduced John l. Blair Reilly
Of Phiilipsburg as his red-hot Republican
friend.
WE. tSeafy aia NOT oeile the hrst part OF
his Introduction. He was beyond all doubt
a red-hot Republican. He started in ham
mer and tongs to pound the Democratic
party out of all kinds of recognizable
shapes. He lac not proceeded far before
the audience began to get restless, and
before long made demonstrations of It's
d-ssaoprovaf.
