time. So pleasurable was the day,
and so full of interest and instructive
enjoyment, we think every one who
participated would vote to repeat it
at an early date.
While at Gettysburg we visited the
soldiers of the Second West Virginia
Regiment, who were camped there for
the week. From what we saw, the
soldiers life is not happy one. The
men were living in dog tents, little
canvas huts made of two sections of
cloth somewhat larger than pocket
handkerchief. The boys were swell
tering in the sun, while the tedious
hours dragged away, and if they were
not pining for the comforts of home
they are made of sterner stuff than
We think they are. They seemed de-
termined, however, to grin and bear
it, and will serve their two years.
AS to enlisting again when their time
is up-well, that's another question.

Clasped in the arms of his father,
Harry F. Biesecker, member of Com
pany c, Second North Carolina In
fantry, died at the Hospital of the
Children's Aid Society, in Chambers
burg, Pa, yesterday. Biesecker was
twenty-four years old, and told his
parents three days ago that he was
going to die. Last night, when his
father called TO see him, he made
known by signs that he wanted to be
taken TO his arms. The father clasped
the sick son as if he were a baby and
held him until the end came. One Of
the requests he made just prior to his
death was that his body be inferred
in the old Covenant graveyard, at
Fayetteville.

The Cement Mill.


There is a rumor to the effect that
Mr.. Blunt. who recently purchased the
old Potomac Cement Mill property be-
low Shepherdstown, will organize a
company to re-establish the cement
business at that point. The project
includes, it is said, the building of a
new dam of stone and concrete across
the river, the equipment Of the mill
with new machinery, and a general
improvement of the property. We
hope that the rumor may become an
established fact.

MUSICALE.
There was an impromptl but very
delightful musicale at the home of
Mrs. James H. Shepherd last night,
when the hostess gathered about her
a number of her friends in town and
visitors from other places. The bril-
liant playing of Mrs. BOwley, of Jersey
Heights, the charming rendition Of
several German songs with either ac-
compartment by Miss Titus, of Phila-
delphia, and vocal and instrumental
music by our home folks, combined to
make the evening one of rare enjoy
ment. Delicious refreshments were
tastefully served during the evening.

THE CAMPAIGN IN CALIFORNIA.

I 7 HATEVER defeat and disaster may await
\Xj them election day, the fused factions of dis
content have at least fulfilled their boast of
forcing State issues to the front during the campaign
By nominating for Governor irresponsible dema
gogue as James G. Mcguire on a platform so threat
enng to all the interests of the thrifty and industrious
classes OF the people, they have compelled intelligent
to recognize that the chief issue in the contest
is that of preserving the State from the domination Of
the Maguires and the Gallaghers.
The issue is the more pressing because the pros
perity which followed the accession of Mckinley to
Office and the speedy enactment of Republican tariff
for the protection of American industry has resulted
in renewed activity among capitalists in the direc
ton of large investments and great enterprises This
has been accompanied by revival of the westward
march of progressive young men looking for places
in which to establish business and make permanent
homes California, having vast resources undeveloped
and millions OF acres uncuvated, will naturally at
tract many Of these home seekers, but the attraction
will be in vain if the government of the State should
this uncture be politically unsound and antagonis
tic to capital.
If this had been year Of industrial distress and
financial embarrassment il thousands of people were
out of work and times were hard the Mcguire move
ment would be everywhere recognized of the
most dangerous in annals. Then its true nature
would have been revealed and its hostility to property
and industry would have shown itself in fierce denun-
Citations Of all kinds of thrift and all forms of con-
servatism AS it is the leaders have had to be some
what mild in their harangues but none the less they
have said and done enough to exhibit the reckless
character of their policies and their principles. To
defeat them is therefore necessary step toward our
continuance in the paths of prosperity 1t is State
issue which property-owner, business or in
dustrious worker can ignore

The effect of sound credit and sound money has
been felt throughout all the channels of trade and has
changed the position of this country to the rest of the

the creditor nation, with the prospect of increasing
the debts of the nations to us during the next two
