i For Judge of SoperJor Court: WILLIAM W. PORTER. of Philadelphia. THE DEMOCRATIC TICKET. The Democratic State ticket nominated at Altoona, outside of George A.

Jenka for Governor, is a most wretched example of crazy quilt. It is neither fish, flesh, fowl, nor good red herring, to use an ancient expression, and it is foredoomed to "defeat just as sure "as the sun rises and sets. Mr. Jenks lias filled a very respect nble place in the public eye as President Cleveland's solicitor general, and after that experience in public affairs he dropped out of sight only to resurrected as a figurehead for the Democratic ticket this year, placed there at the dictation of the new Iktss, James M. Guffey, who seems to lie right arbitrary sort of boss, who brooks no opposition, and made more enemies at Altoona than he did friends.

Mr. Jenks brings little of force to the ticket. Mr. Sowden, as the candidate for Lieutenant Governor, will hare to antagonize the Cleveland element of the party, having lieen repeatedly turned down by Cleveland when re represented the Allentowu district in Congress and stood by the banner of Samuel J. Randall and protection.

Mr. Sowden cannot expect to make any inroads on the vote that will le cast for that gallant okl soldier, General Gobiii, who is at the front ready to fight the battles of his country. Mr. DeLacey, of Scranton, for Secretary of Internal Affairs, is chiefly known as the chief of police of the coal city, and baa had no experience in affairs of State. For Congressmen at large the Democrats present ex Assemblyman Jere X.

Weiler, of Carbon, and F. P. lams, of Allegheny, neither of whom are fitted to take the places so worthily filled by Congressmen Grow and Davenport. Professor Trick ctt, of Carlisle, one of the candidates for Superior Court Judge, is chiefly noted as a controversialist in local affairs in the Cumberland Yalley, while the other nominee, C. M.

Bower, of Centre, is well known as a local attorney with no judicial experience whatever. It is as a ticket a clumsy piece of patchwork representing all factions and all differences, and it will create little or no impression on the people of the State, and will not fool nylody. It was gotten up for the sole purpose of deceiving the peo ple, but it will not win. That ticket is foredooiwd to defeat. AYill Mr.

The "hlmdreil sturdy lafla who nRirchcd out of IIarriburg for Orickamauga 'tint i vening to jni the Fourth, regiment at Camp Thomas will have the satisfaction of knowing that they are grttdng into a regiment that ilism already won laurel for efficiency.

Shafter is one of those soldiers who believe in doing business without delay. He no sooner landed on the soil of Culm than he legan to arrange for meeting with the Spaniards.

He evidently look upon I wan as one of those evil whieh can be less fashion. It appears to the auihi uuu oi wenerai nailer to cclclrate the Fourth of July in Santiago and the commanders of the Spanish troops ought to realize by this time that he will icii.l the great day of America's independence beyond their larlod wire feiiet N. if he wants to. Having started his siege guns and othen pyrotechnical apparatus overland toward the site of the proposed celebration he will move forward to the attack with all the vim thut has thns far characterized his movements. Some of the Democrats do not like the way in which Kuniwi Jhn Guffey flooded Judge Gordon's coal bunkers.

That it is not an actnal scene we have upon Spanish authority. CLAY'S FEAR FOR CUBA. Appealed for a Xaiy to Protect Onr Com.

merea from Enortancl's Itapaclty, Aa long ago as 1812 Henry Clay, in a apeech delivered in the House of Representatives, expressed a fear as to the future possession' of Cuba which nas never been entirely absent until now, when Cuban independence is reasonably assured. In an eloquent argument In favor of an increase of ths navy, Mr. Clay said, on January 22. 1812: "Whether tha ancient dynasty of Spain Is to be upheld or subverted, it Is extremely uncertain if the bonds connecting; the parent country with her colonies are not forever broken. What is to become of Cuba? Will It assert independence, or remain the province some European power? In either case the whole trade of the western country, which must pass almost with in gunshot of Morro Castle, Is exposed to danger.

I am not, however, afraid of Cuba. I wish her to be Independent. But suppose England gets possession of that valuable Island? With Cuba en the south and Halifax on the north, who of the iost sanaculne among us would not tremble for our commerce and for the integrity of the Union? "If, along with Cuba, Great Britain should acquire East Florida, she would have the absolute command of tht Gulf of Mexico. Can you gentlemen contemplate such possible, nay, probable, events, without desiring to see at least the commencement of such a naval establishment as would effectually protect our southern coast?" Mr. Clay's fears were not without good reason, for in 1762 an English fleet under Lord Albermarle had captured Havana and invested Cuba, exchanging it the following year for Florida.

In 1783 Great Britain ceded Florida back to Spain. Even while Mr. Clay was speakiBg a body of "patriots" were organizing to capture Florida and organize a republic. Later tho United States intervened and under General Jackson Florida frorn. Spain In 1819 and made it a territory.

Clay's appeal for a new navy, however, was effective. By a vote of 52 to 47 the motion to strike out the naval appropriation was defeated and the navy was fitted out with dispatch. The naval victories won by our navy during the war with Great Britain within the next two years indicated the good Judgment of the "Groat and covered the nation with glory. New York Mall and Express.

1'ittsburg, on the other hand, dropped a few points. The clubs in the second division are if anything more closely bunched. New York is now at the head of the second division, but is only one point ahead of the Phillies, who yesterday took a brace and surprised the base ball world by making a new record for base hits in a singky game, a record all the more surprising as it was made off a left hand pitcher.

That Carlisle IMitor "Telegrajih:" Those who are in icrcNioi in in, new ey le path lictwecn IlarnisUiirg and Carlisle, anil seeiiLlly thst who have contributed to it, will well to take a trip one of these fine mornings and see how the work i.s pron ssing on the path.

With the liest. intentions, doubtless, the work is itniuestioiiabl le ing iKiorly done. I rode beside, because I could not ride on. a considerable ki tiou of the pjith. as far as it is constnuct el.

this liioniing. So fur as a careful examination of what has Iwon done nnd what i.s licing none discloses, the construction of the path is simply the tearing up of the road with picks, the filling up with a coiicloiii. rntioii of different sizes of cinder, without any ramming or packing, and then the dragging over it of an antiquated stone roller. Then is almost no grading, and no attention whatever IMiiil to the drainage, and apparently as little thought paid to the separation of the path from the wagon road. Any one who has walked, ridden, or bicycled on tho execrable road to Carlisle, over which there the inutility of toll change, knows that there are very many soft sts in it.

and under the present construction of the cycle path, it will lie a wonderfully conscientious teamster who docs not turn out of the mud on to the cycle path whenever ho feels like it. If the path had leen sharply divided from the road, either by a drainage ditch or a little greaten elevation, this would have loeil less likely to occur. Again, it would seem to lie demanded, for a path of this sort, that it 1m elevated alnive the worst ssts in the rondj and that the summits of the hills Is cut down. This has Im cii done in one instance for elevation and depression only, ami there are several notable spots where the path is stccier than the road, and ot liens where it. is likewise leved with or lower than the mud hole by which it runs.

I am not impugning the motives of those who have worked so hard to have this tiling starteil. but it is surely wise to look at it now Iwforo it is too late to iiinke at least a jvort'nui of the path upon iiKMlenn and proper linen. As it stands, the path will probably have a short life, and next season will only show a black streak of dirt to represent the effort and expense undergone. Clover. Wealey Thonaea Twenty Dari.
