CHRONICLER AT BUFFALO.
He Says See the Exposition Now
While the Exhibits are Bright.

There are so many things here worth
noting that one hardly knows where to
begin, and if you stand in almost any
part of the midway along in the after
noon you will think the world is com
ing to an end.
The leather-lunged .'barkers" shout
their various attractions through huge
speaking trumpets until the modest
scribe feels as if he would like to retire
to boiler shop to rest his ears.
There are very few fakes here and
one can be we'll entertained in the long
array of the only things worth seeing
as announced by each OF these noisy
gentlemen.
1t is quite desirable to have plenty of
change with you (as it is always) or,
still better, bit of magic pasteboard,
with Press" on it, which is quickly
recognized by the shrewd people who
know where their interest lies.
There are no great crowds here yet,
and it is by far the best time to see the
exhibits.
Now the buildings are new, the ma
chinery is clean and bright, the attend
ants attentive and there is a chance to
look at things at leisure. By and by,
when the crowds get here, the buildings
will have lost their newness, some of
the exhibits will look dingy, and it will
be an old story with the tired out ladies
and gentlemen in charge; so just come
and see it now.
Railroads offer tickets from New York
and return for 80, so it is not SO expen-
sive, and the people here have learned
the same lesson that was taught to
Philadelphia and Chicago-that it is not
wise to extort. American people wont
stand it, though they are far freer with
their money than any other nation in
the world.
| do not see how a man can look
through the various buildings here and
not feel proud and glad that he belongs
to America.
In the transportation building are
shown the latest and most complete
things in railway service, and our D. L.
& w. has complete train, mail car
and all, ready to get up steam and start
out. With our engines and parlor cars
going all over the world because they
are better, why should we not all exult.
The forestry building is picnic for
man who loves trees, and when he sees
stick 81 inches square. 70 feet long,
without knot or blemish and finds
himself .vainly trying to reach up to
the top of log lying on the ground
beside him, the average Jerseyman be-
gins to think something.
When l get up an exposition l shall
have the buildings in great circle or
else square, SO that one can tell when
he gets around, and each of the build
ings shall be named in great big letters.
The managers of expositions do not
have an easy time by any means There
is lots of hard work about it,

his steady price and undoubtedly saved
money. as an advance will probably be
made in the fall. George H Dalrym'

appears to have strong following
throughout the State generally.
Bearing in mind the newspaper com

of the CHRONICLE visited the baiIiwick
OF MIR. Cornish the other day in order to
talk over the situation with him.
Seated at his desk, above which ap.

Let not thy Business Drive Thee"
Mr.. Cornish was found.
Good morning Senator. Having
noticed considerable talk in the Demo-
cratic press concerning the likelihood of
your receiving the nomination for Gov.
ernor thought the best way to learn
the situation was by means of personal
interview.
"Well, I'm always glad to see the
Chronicle man, but whew, it's hot
Just look at my mail, as an
assistant dumped more than bushel of
letters on the Senator's desk, embracing
almost every State and about as MANY
foreign countries; ''our business is grow
ing 50 rapidly that it keeps me on the
jump with little time for politics, as
you can see for yourself"
Well, Senator, what about the gov
ernorship ?''
II can not be known as a candidate
for the reason that all my time is
devoted to my business interests.

the honor is a great one and no
one appreciates the record and loyalty
of my party more than do, but am
not seeking any additional office. NV
nomination as Senator came unsought
and while my predecessor carried old
Warren by 1,130 my plurality was in
1878, so you can see what my friends
and neighbors at home think of me, and
my majority, l assure you, was not
rolled up alone by votes of our party.
81 am inclined to think the Demo-
Gratis will elect a Governor in Novem-
Der. Why? Well, you will see that
the Democratic convention will not
nominate candidate who pulls all sorts
of wires to secure delegates. When the
proper time comes, the Democratic
leaders will get together, harmony will
prevail and the candidate named at the
| State convention will be the one who
can poll the entire vote of his party,
irrespective of anything else. In otheY
words, we will name winner and l
think some of your leaders are already
looking in our direction with anxious
eyes.
$50 far as | am personally concerned,
as L said before, our Piano and organ
business takes all my time and | have
no inclination towards the gubernatorial
nomination. AS a loyal Democrat, how
ever, when the Democracy names a
candidate to succeed Foster M. Voor-
hees, you may rest assured that, while
not neglecting my own business, | will
work overtime for whoever is named
Come and see me nearer convention
time and l will be glad to talk oyer the
situation as it exists then"

A Romance of the Wheat Pit.

The End of the Deal is the title of an
unusually good business serial story
which is to begin in an early number of
the Saturday evening Post Of Philedel-

Chicago Board of Trade is the basis up
on which the author, Will Poyne has

this true of Niagara Falls. There is no

ries, dark red, almost black in color
which reach size of over two inches in
circumference, and the Royal Ann a

The question of a single term for
President, and the extension of the term
from four to six years is beginning to
excite discussion. The argument is
that under the present system Presi-
dent scarcely gets his seat warm before
he Is laying plans 10 succeed himself,
and that with the ambition for a second
term removed, better service would be
secured and there would be a lessening
of political excitement. The argument
is not without merit.
