The State Fair.

As fair week approaches, the prospect brightens for a successful fair; and since the order to close the entry books on the Saturday before, 27th inst, the Secretary’s office presents a busy scene": entries pour in bj every mail, and posters, large and small, premium lists, letters and other mail matter go out, the result of the unusual interest manifested to be ready by the opening day, Monday, September 29. The grounds and buildings have been greatlj beautified, making them still more attractive in appearance, and it is no vain boast to repeat the expression of exhibitors that we have the best arranged and most convenient improvements of any fair grounds in the United States. Water is now supplied from the City vVater Works, and this, to gether with numerous excellent wells, makes the water facilities complete. Large numbers of fine stock vvill be there, and farm implements, and machinery by the acre. Many new features and special attractions will be presented, and the Women’s Department. with its special premiums in art, music, and literature, will be highly interesting. The candidates for national honors have been invited, and we have reasonable assurance that some of them will be present. Three round lines of street cars will convey passengers to and from the Union depot at five cents far each way. All railroads in the State will carry passengers and stock at half rates. Tickets will be placed on sale for exhibitors on most of the roads by the 25th instant, good until October 6. Everybody ought to go and learn something new and have a good time. Idianapolis, Sept. 18th, 1884. James G. Blaine is a mock defender of the purity of the ballot-box. His managers in Maine paid ten dollars on an average per vole at the September election. Shall a corruptionist occupy the Presidential chair! We think not.

Young Morton, in a speech delivered at New Albany, recently, declared that the soldier who would vote the Democratic ticket ought to be shot. Young Morton is a mild-man nered lunatic banking up his deceased fathei’s greatness. An instance is not on reeord where Blaine, though a generation in public life, ever saved the country a cent. But Cleveland, while Mayor of Buffalo- saved that city £I,OOO, 000 in a year.—Port Royal (Va.) Sentinel. ‘Blaine’s hired substitute was in jail during the War. Judging from the recent Mulligan letters the substitutes principal has well deserved the same quartering since the War. Like master, like man you know. ‘Good and pure government lies at the foundation of the progress and prosperity of every community.’—Governor Cleveland. The New York Tribune says the new Mulligan letters vindicate Blaine. Why didn’t it publish them? Peterson's Magazine for October comes to us with an increase ot pages and a more billiant array than ever of steel-plates, colored fashions’ colored patterns- and illustrative woodengraviigs. The principal steelplate. “Playing At Being Grandpa and granma,” is as graphic as it is humorous-one of the ysry best 'Lings of the kind we have ever seen The stories, continued and otherwise are exceptionally good: in this respect, “Peterson ” has long been witn out a rival Some hints are wispered in this number in advance as to what is to be done in 1885, and it Is no too early it is Added to begin to get np clubs for that year The best way to see what is intended and to test the ( tterlts of “Peterson” is to send for a which will be sent gratis if #ritten for in good faith Address Chablis J Peterson 306 Chestnut Street PhilSdelonia Pa

Democracy to the Nation.

The National Democratic Executive Committee, through their chairmen. Mr. Arthur P. Gojman, has issued the following stirring address to the people of the United States. To the peop e of the United States: The Natk-Dal Democrat! t party of the United States has pledged i»s<*lf to purify the administration of public affairs from corruption, to man* age the government with economy, to enforce the exeeti ion of th - laws, and fb reduce taxation to the lowest limit consistent with just protection to Amer can abor and capital and with the preservation of the fa th which the nation has pledged to Us •reditors and petitioners. The open record of the man whom it has named as the candidate for the Presiden cy has been accepted by thousands of Independent Republicans it: eve. State as an absolute guarantee that if he is elected all these pledges will be exactly fullfilled. and that under his administration good government will be assured, To secure these results all good citizens must unite ini defeating Ihe Republican candidate for President. His history and po liticai methods make it certain that his administration would be stained by gross abuses, official misconduct, aed wanton expenditure of the public money, and would be marKed by an incease of taxation which would blight the honest industry of out people. Again t us and against those bon orable Republicans who, for the sake of good government have made common cause with us. notable combinations have been mad 6, These are chiefly made of four classes. Firsts an army of officeholders, who by choice or eomr alsion are now giv iug to the Republica committees, as pans of the campaign fund oi that party, money paid to such officer; out of the public treasury for servi. ces due to the people of the Unitud States. Second, oganized bod'es of men who, having secured by corrupt means the imposition of duties which are in excess of all sums needed for the wants of the government and for the protection of American labor and capital, and having thus gain«d enormous wealth, are williug to pay largely to the Republican campaign fund for the promise of the eonlinance and increase of such duties, which constitute a system of booties to monopolies under the fajse pretense of protection to American industry Third, a host, or unscrupulous contractors and jobbers who have grown rich upon public plun*» der and are ready to pay tithes for whot they have acquired in order to avoid all risk of being called to account for the evil methods by which their wealth has been gained. Fourth, 3orporations which, having spoiled the public lai; !s by the aid of corrupt agencies ic r>e Republican party, believing they ill be compell ed to give up their ill >tten gains if that party is driven 1: m power, and are, therefore, willing a keep it in place by giving it a p.-rceutago of their unrighteous profits-

The committee has uo tropps of officeholders at ps command. It will not agree to .ell the future legisln tion of Congress for money paid now into the treasury, It will rot imrnunity to thieves. It will not contract, to uphold any corrupt bargalu heretofore made by the Republican party with any corporation fur all the wealth which such corporations can offer. It appeals to the people against one and all of f hese opponents, thus corruptly bauded together against the friends of good government, The number of all these opponents is small, but their wealth is great, and it will be unscrupulously used. An active and vigous campaign must be made against them. Their paid advocatts must be met and defeated in debate upon the platform and in discussion in the newspapers. The organization of all wuo are opposed to them must be perfected in every State, city and county in the land xVloney is needed to do this honest work, Your committee, refusing to adopt the methods by which the Republican party fills its treasury, calls upon all good citizens for t e aid which it requires. It invites and will wei come contributions from every honest man who is opposed to the election of James G. Blaine as President. No contribution will be accounted to small. Wherever a banic. banker, or postal-money-order can be found, the means exist xor placing at the disposal *f the trt asurer of the committee individual or collective contributions in aid of the great cause in which we are engaged. Or money may be remitted by mail to Charles J. Oanda, treasurer, at 11 West 24th street, New York York, When victory is achieved over the unscrupulous combination which is endeavoring to thrust James G, Blaine in the Presidential office, the recorded list of such contributors will be atoll of honor such as no other party in this couulry has ever possessed. Our pponents cannot be saved from disaster by forcing their unwilling candidate to speak to assemblages of the people- The man who wrote the fisher letters will never be the choice of the people for the presidency of the United States. Arthur P. Gorman, Chairman National Democratic Executive Committee.

BLAINE’S WHITE SLATES.

The Plumed Knight’s Interest Sta ration of Hocking Yalta ley Miners. Special to the Cbigago Daily Newe. Cleveland, O , Sept. 17. There is much excitement among the miners of the Hockiug valley over the discovery that James G- Blaine is the leading spirits of one of the coal syndicates that is just now engaged in starving i:s men into revolt and im porting pauper laborers to take their places. The Democrats are making the most of the opportunity and are sowing documents on all sides. The diselosures were made through the discovery of a copy of the Cleveland Herald, a Republican newspaper, dated Dec. 19- 1883, which contains a special dispatch from New York, saying: Inquiries about the standard Coal and Oil company have been set on foot here by the dispatch from Columbus saying that the company has made an assignment there. Accord ing to Bradstreet’s reports the company was incorporated eighteen months ago, wi'h an organized capital of $25,000,000. Thirty thousand acres of mineral land in the Hooking vailey were purchased and $2,000,000 spent in opening up and equipping a small part of the property. Sever al iren companies were brought up, aud it vv-is th • evident design to ab sorb the various companies of the valley and control the business aud production W. D. Kee, of Norwalk, O , was the original promoter ;of the schemes. Among the directors and largest stock holders were Jame< G. Blaine. Eugene Hale, of Maiue, aud Gov. Charles Foster, of Ohio. The company was organized under the name of the Oh o and Western Coal and Iron comnauy. The capital s‘ock was fixed at $5,0(0,000, and all the old stock wiped out. Specials from this points have already deeribed how the syudrcat.es of the Hocking valley deal with their miners. How much concerning the interest of Blaine aud Fosier in these syndicates Gov. floadly knew when calted to tne scene of the lute riot is unknown, but it is alleged that his hesitation in ordering out the troops was due to ills belief that the democracy’s interests would be best s ibserved it Blaine and Fosier were suffered to settle tneir troubles with ;heir men without the aid of democratic inter** f -lenee Tiie Hooking and other mining regions will soon be flooded wiin cauipa i;u literature, showing up Blaiue’s connection with these syndicates. The political effect cannot be underestimated, for the en» raged miners are ready to eternally blast any one interested as a capitals ist iu the syndicates which have given them the alternative of working at pauper wages or going with their families into the streets.

A Great Discovery. Mr. Wiliam Thomas, of Newton, la., says: ‘My wife has been seriously aC fectcd with acoueli for twenty-five years, and this spring more severely than ever before. She had used many remedies without reliet, and being urged to try Dr. King's New Discovery, did so with most gratifying results. The first bottle relieved her very much, and the second bottle has absolutely cured her. (She has not had so good health for thirty sears.” Trial Bottles Free at. F. B. Meyer’s Drug Store.

An enterprising farmer near Beac , ing, Pa., lias a room fifty feet square : entirely surrounded with ice, in wkic, he stores fruit. In this rc fx-igerator h j is able to keep apples and pears unt they will bring twice or thrice the sam fruit marketed w hen first picked.

A Western farmer wdio tried whea bran as a manure for wheat report that the effect of an application of on ton of bran to the acre was equal t that obtained from the usual applies tion of a mixture of bone dust, guano lime and wood ashes, and the differ ence in yield of the crops that receive! bran as compared with those not s treated was very great. L. H. Bailey, of South Haven Mich., and of the oldest frhit-grower of this State, once received a lot of ap pie trees that in appearance were dead They had been delayed two months' h reaching him. It was in the pionee times, and new trees could not be pro cured readily. He therefore set out ri the seemingly dead trees, first letting them lie under the water for two days Nearly all lived to have their product take the first premium at the fairs.— Lansing Republican.

The Avierican Agricultural says There are five methods in which Per sian insect powder may be applied t< destroy insects: As dry powder; as i fume; as an alcoholic extract diluted by simple stirring of the powder h water; as a tea or decoction. The po# der may be diluted with ten times ifi bulk of flour, or any finely-pulverizdi material, as wood ashes. It is reconi' mended to mix the powder and othej material twenty-four hours before usii In a closed room the fumes from a sma quantity will kill or render inactiVi common flies and mosquitoes. For ap plication to insects on plants the pow der mixed with water, and the tea made from the herb dried, are more oou Venient, and quite as effectual. In a conversation with an experieneei chicken raiser he informed us that he had been very successful in conquering that precarious disease in his young fowls by the application of air-slackee lime. As soon as a manifestation o gapes in his fowls appear, he confines his chickens in a box, one at a time, sufficiently large to contain the bird, and places a coarse piece of cotton oi linen cloth over the top. Upon this he places the pulverized lime, and taps th< screen sufficiently to cause the lime to fall through. This lime dust the fowl inhales and is made to sneeze, and in a short time the cause of the gapes is thrown out in the form of a slimy mass or masses of worms, which had accumulated in the windpipe and smaller vessels. This remedy he considers superior to any remedy he qver tried, ran he seldom fails to effect a perfect cude. He has adjured all those mechanical means by which it is .attempted to dislodge the entozoa with instruments made of whalebone, hog’s bristles, horse hair of fine wire alleging that people are quite as certain to push the gape worms farther down the throat of the fowls as to draw them up. —Poultry Nation.

A correspondent of the Michigan Farmer has the following neat piece of 3atire on “wash-day:” Were I a statistician I would try to amuse myself and the public by estimating the number *of people who live for the different days in the week; assuming that teachers live for Saturday, and the country girl, who has a regular beau, for Sunday. The latter is quite apt to develop into one of a class, greater than all the rest, and soon become a woman who lives for Monday. Before the wedding ring is dimmed, she has made her housework the ultima thule of her existence ; each week a circle of triumphs of which the family wash is the grand commencement. This must be large, snowy white, and hung up at an early hour, in some conspicuous place, to proclaim to all who see that she still lives and leads. The pantry may be empty, the house in confusion from the Sunday relaxation, and aching head or back may plead for an easy day, but the claims of ambition and a patriotic loje of the old New England custom, brings out the tubs and suds to triumph over all. What if this does include the gathering together and putting to soak of the clothes on tbe previous day. What if she hears an undertone in the sermon, a chorus to the hymns, ol robes that are not like the angels, and finds a thought of the morrow’s work intruding upon her Sunday’s rest! Her devotion to her wash becomes well understood, and no friend dares to call while it is in progress; while nothing comes so near to breaking her heart as to have a relative display the abominably bad taste of being buried on Monday. Physical aches and mental depression may come upon her; winds and rain descend upon the earth; winter’s cold stand at an appalling degree, but the woman who lives for Monday will wash on that day though the heavens fall.
