for for mud DW York Times March 20 1876 It can be doubted the peo pie of Philadelphia are themselves well of the one weak spot in their Cen tennial its paucity of lines of communication with tlie city property Under present circumstances these can hardly be increased save by means as the Centennial Transfer Company will furnish They will place at the disposi tion of the public JOO which will hold eight persons These will run between the city and the Exhibition at charge of fifty cents Up to the presene moment it has not been settled where these vehicles shall Lave their stands and as the streets of Phila delphia are with few exceptions exceed ingly narrow this rather an im portant question The probability is that under the special the aris inhabitants of Washington and Franklin squares will not to these broad spaces being utilized for this purpose Besides thia Transfer Company there does not seem to be any other method of relief though the citi zens count much on their railways which all have lines in the city proper and have n network of in West Philadelphia But with the exception of the Philadelphia and Reading none of steam lines can take the overflow from the overburdened The Baltimore Road is more than two miles south of the central part of the city where the strangers will congregate all tho hotels and the chief are there The Northern Pennsylvania which has connection with Fairmount Park through the junction line of the Pennsylvania Central is far away at the extreme northeastern end of the city its depot being close to Kensing ton The Pennsylvania Central whose arms encompass the city both north and south is too far away in the north and in the south connects with the Balti more Road two miles from the hotel re gion to the Delaware where it owns all tho ground that formerly be longed to the United States Navy Depart ment The Philadelphia Reading will indeed be of great service for it comes into tho centre of a densely populated part of tlie city full of temporary board and not from the quarter of the principal hotels It will rnn f trains to the Centennial and will edly prove of real benefit As the important day approaches the fact becomes more and more obvions that the great bulk of the visitors must en deavor to obtain quarters in West Phila delphia It must be remembered that the omnivorous Central which comes to the very doors of the Exhibition is the great connecting line of Phila delphia and that almost all travelers from a distance will be in its trains Tlie want of logic in arriving by rail before the very doors of tho Centennial and then turning ones back upon it and going ofT into the it will be almost impossible to obtain transportation must strike reasoning mind Therefore as tho days go by the attention is given with increasing favor to those plans of which have been suggested The military arrangements have been already in tho columns of the and the encampments along the railways are with one exception still in the nebulous condition of suggestions That exception is the great Granger en Tlie Grangers may have hay seed in their locks but they certainly have brains under hair When the Grangers of Pennsylvania met in solemn State Convention and discussed the ques tion of accommodation and prices within the city they came to the conclusion that things were likely to bo dearer than would snit either the pockets or the wishes of a true agriculturist It may be observed that tho farmer in all lands holds on to his money with an hard grip he really it by the sweat of his brow And the Grangers were about that they would to pay fifty cents to a transf or company to go and fifty cents to come nor per day for one of tho coupons of the Boarding The Proposed Cameron liana net House Agency Limited by the iii they determined to provide or Mis tion for themselves and for their brother Commercial I Grangers from other States And the The correspond rangement of matters was placed in

reply quickly discovered that the first thin I te venerable Senator declining the in necessary was to make friends with soma I Plants an interesting epitome of one of the avowed long enemies So he made overtures to tho rr March 201876 Honorable Simon DEALER IN Pennsylvania and the railroad lion and the granger lamb lay down to gether in unity The railroad gave to them the use of a great tract of land at Elm Station about six miles distant from the depot at West Philadephia and about four and a half from the Centennial depot in front of the main entrance to the Ex and contracted to carry all per 11 sons from that and back for way only for station fifteen cents onw ten cents Contracts DEAR is with feelings of tho most sincere and earnest character that we the undersigned on behalf and at the request of our Republican colleagues of the State of Pennsylvania in the Forty fourth to you their congratulations upon your having entered with all that vigor for which your life has been so remarkably paired your year way for ten cents Contracts back the many years duv were then entered into with builders our good old has had the for the ejection of wooden sheds or of supervision and huts to accommodate 2400 people for n m lta affairs we feel proud of billiard rooms bowling saloons stores record of the faithful zeal the un for the sale journals serve statesmanship which have marked your course Throughout your long busy and useful of confectionery drugs and lecture rooms for churches on Sundays and for every species of literary throughout your long busy and useful ment and attraction on other days The career no man has deserved your programme of prices laid down and to bo in vain and no man has ever preserved as immutably as the laws of rou an undeserving foe We nature regulating seedtime and harvest to express in an appropriate manner was fift cen our esteem for ou as was fifty cents for the lodging and fifty our esteem for you as the leading al It was calculated Publc man Pennsylvania and our r cents for each ineal a also that the hardy Grangers might not regard for you as a friend liko the tariff of prices inside the grounds bes that you will name an but that nevertheless their interior ory which will snit your convenience might bo clamorous for reaccept a public dinner from us as Rep freshment about 1 oclock Consequently substantial cold lunches ready packed We are will be provided for those farmers who hke John Gilpin can be on pleasure bent and still have a frugal mind And it was also resolved that the organization would not restrict their quarters to genuine agri but would welcome others who chose to share their plain and rustic fare I went out last Saturday to Elm Station to the nur survey progress of the carpenters employed upon the buildings The locality is all that could be desired occupy ing the western slope of the first con mg me western Slope of the first ouu tne terms that iu hill encountered after leaving js conveyed with profound pleas Philadelphia There are numerous springs Yotl are Phased to refer to my past in the vicinity and abundance of m of approval and compliment bor trees and in the early flush of the sumand to the hope that my health mer in the first days of the exhibition tho Rnd may continue I thank you Place Will bfi ft Tla MV aim lifo no approval and compliment iu tne aays ot uie exhibition tho j place will be a paradise The quarter are sincerely My aim through life has peculiar in construction They consist of been to do my duty and to do it as nn V fn long buildings each containing ninety two rooms fortysix on each side of a broad central corridor The rooms are about twelve feet deep by eight and not particularly high having sloping penthouse roofs which overhang the walls for about eighteen inches The doors all open on the corridor and the light and air are admitted by a sort of construction al transom above the door Ventilation is obtained by a lantern roof with large side windows but there lire no windows to the rooms yet nor can I learn that there ave going to be If there are my informant did not know it and my own told me that there were no iix tho rear walla and no penciled marks to show where they were to come These long ranges of buildings are placed north and south and are thoroughly open at each end so that they will not be close until end of July It is also true that people will be very little in their rooms except at night time But I a panel window just such as one sees in attics and barracks would be a great im provement To accommodate 2400 persons it will be necessary to have at least twelve of these rows of sheda and at present there aro but five fonr of which are nearly com and one is about half finished The underpinning of two more has been laid down and by the great piles of planking on the ground it is evident that there is a determination to have the whole twelve ready by the middle of April But I trust that the organizers of this very com mendable enterprise will not restrict them selves by any means to 1200 rooms but will increase the number in proportion to inevitable demand They will do well to remember that the American people are extremely fond of bivouacking in this style and that the camp meetings owe their as ranch to the camps as the religious with which they are impressed Everyone delights to go out of his ordinary life and to treat himself to a new get of sensations The more com plete and absolute the change the more vivid are the This is the of the camping oat which drives staid merchants into the wilds of the and puts into tho hands of the queens of society frying pans and orders them to fry trout Many a belle whom no compliment to her bright eyes and golden hair could mollify has finished with pleasure at praises of her cooking at Lake Chanzy or some other sketch of blue water in onr New York highlands The Grangers then may be prepared for a tremendous rush and they will do well if they extemporize quarters with tents for the Fourth of They have the throe merits of healthiness and perfect accessibility and crowds must come to them LliU there is which as the city can offer will not bridge over Then let West PhilAdelphia he the temporary city Let the principal store keepers of Philadelphia establish branches there for the season just as tho New York do at Saratoga and Newport and Long Branch and let the people to make np their minds to stay whore the railroad brings thorn I know full well that people somewhere to spend their long summer overlings kand that to those who love theatricals there will be magnets of at I traction which will inevitably draw them I adopt the suggestion of General Haw loy with regard to the erection of a hall within the to be used for chamber of deliberation by and scientific bodies during the day and for I purposes of at night It j conid easily be placed where conld j he obtained at nighttime doors outside of tho fence and during tho daytime through doora placed within The deliberations of many societies have an immense upon the body all objections to being within the after hoars wonld be mot record of the faithful zeal the un wisdom and the ostentatiously as possible trusting to time to settle the controversies sure to arise concerning the methods and motives of any man feela strongly and acts vig In thia reliance your letter that I have been fortunate After passing seventyseven years in the State that gave me birth and years of that long lifetime in active private pur suits and public duties it is beyond expression the voice Pennsylvania and approval pleasant to hear of Representatives of their satisfaction And this is enough No entertainment that could be given no sen timents that might be added would be capable of increasing the joy your invita tion has conferred Part national councils I have with affection the that has so often remembered great Commonwealth honored me and I am now unconscious of any wilful neglect of her mighty interests of any lukewarmness where her welfare has been in question More than par the good of Pennsylvania 1ms held a place in my heart As a Democrat I was forced to oppose my party in the interest of protection As a Republican I have sought to combine the brains and masses of that great organization in a solid force for that wise policy And I look back with an approving con science on my course in both the great political parties of that period covered by active political life Therefore it is that your approval of my course as a ranian is so me lint gen tlemen a regard for the pleasanter way of doing what ia set before me without parada induces me to hesitate in accepting your invitation On fall reflection I feel forced to decline it and I trust the reasons which control me in this decision will not only be appreciated by you and the gen tlemen you represent but that they will not be denied a measure of that approval which you have so generously and partial ly accorded to my past life If on the completion of my present Senatorial term the same desire to approve a finished should exist I will then meet you li pleasure nnd free from any for my
