In 1880 the town's population Adams county's population in 1890 was 33,486 as against 32,455 in 1880. Prof. Hankey has been very careful in taking this census, and says that it is as correct as it could be made.

He thanks the people for their courtesy to him. Gettysburg has improved vastly in the last comparatively few years. Houses for rent are few and building is, consequently, on the move. The recent new streets, Stevens, Steinwehr York extended anil Lincoln, besides the other new thoroughfares, open, but not yet built upon, are examples of the recent improvements. Throughout the town new houses have been erected, the old ones painted and generally repaired.

The general business of Gettysburg hag shown an advance and business places are much more commodious and generally better than they were some years ago. Altogether our town is going ahead, not with a boom, but with steady increase in population, business and buildings. plicant. After brief remarks by Messrs. Butt and Sheely, in which grave doubts were'expressed as to the expediency and propriety of any action whatever on the part of the County Committee in a purely local affair such as this, especially in the present disturbed and critical condition of the party, the resolution was passed by a rising vote.

John A. Sheely, of New Oxford, AV. A. Bream, of York Springs, and Martin Boyer, of Butler, were appointed a committee to draft resolutions expressive of the sense of the meeting, who reported the following: The Democracy of Adams County by its Committee reaffirms its devotion to Democratic principles and devotes itself anew to the duty of securing and maintaining all the blessings of free and popular Government. It expresses its unswerving confidence in the patriotism, ability and integrity of the National Administration and commends the untiring efforts of the President and Cabinet to redeem the pledges made to the people in the last Democratic National Platform, to restore National credit- to restrain Congressional extravagance and' to make our Country alike respected and admired by the Governments of the World It denounces the extravagance and venality which have characterized the present State Legislature to such degree as to merit and receive the rebuke of even partisan supporters.

It feels, with all the thoughtful and intelligent citizens of the County, the deplorable effects of Republican rule in the County; an increased valuation of real estate made by an arbitrary board of Commissioners, against the sworn returns ot Assessors, and to meet the financial necessities caused by extravagance and incompetence; a failure to accomplish any promised retrenchment and in general a violation of the deceptive promises strongly urged and so solemnly made before the election of 1893. Nor have the pledges of the Republican party with le- gard to the conduct of the Alms-house and poor fund been in any way redeemed the number of salaried officers" remain the same, the gross amount of expenses is not diminished, and charges of official misconduct in the work of the Board of Directors are openly made and are not denied. Sucli have been the fruit of Republican denomination in Adam" County, and such they will continue until the County is redeemed and restored to its rightful place in the column of sure Democratic Counties in Pennsylvania, and R.
