Republican, County Convention.

The adherents t. the waning fortunes Of
the administration, met in solemn convo-
cation at Woodward's Hall on Saturday
last, and went through the farce CT nomi-
mating a County ticket. The victims Sc
lectcd for the autumn sacrifice were
Schlarb for Treasurer, Darlington for
Sheriff, Tyner for Commissioner and g..
Blain FIR Coroner.
Schlarb has been until within few days
past q rabid Fremonter and was nominated
to secure the German vote. We under
stand that on the day of the convention he
told some of the leaders here that he could
control the German vote Of the county for
Fremont, but If they would nominate him
he would ''hoM tie Germans Ievel for
Liacoln," and upon this assurance he was
nominated. in the hope thus to buy up at
a low price the German vote of the county.
Vain hope. that apple will turn to ashes
on their lips. We also learn that in as
much as Darlington is in the employ Of
the government at three dollars day, it
was concluded that he could letter cGord
to make the race Gnd be slaughtered, than
any other man who could be induced to
accept the nomination. Ofcourse the lead
crs have no hope of elccting a man On the
ticket. the nominations were made on the
score of policy-Schlarb is new recruit
and needs tying to the party, Darlington
has been diligently doing that portion OF
their party work which they could get no
other man to do, and must needs be en-
couraged with . show Of party confidence
to keep him well at his work. Tyncr was
the only man in his district who wanted
the nomination, and Blain we are told has
manifested symptoms of independence
lately. more creditable to him than agreea-
bic to his party, hence the importance Of
placing him if possible under stronger OBJ
legations to stand firm during the canvass.
VIII the nomination for coroner purchase
his silence? We think not.
The attendance at the convention was
very small, the people apparently taking
no interest in the affair. We are safe III
saving that there have been full as many
persons in town almost every Saturday for
the last three months as there were on the
dav of the convention. notwithstanding 1t
had been freely announced as mass con
vention, and that DR.. Bedford, the gifted,
the talent, the eloquent Belford' would be
present and address the masses. The thing
was complete failure. hardly amounting
to a respectable fizzle. and when 1t was
over the participants departed with elon-
gated faces and lugubrous countenances to
ponder upon the mutations of political life,
and the prospect of an early accomplish
ment of their darling scheme Of negro
equality.

One of The surest evidences of weak roason-
Ing faculties is the absurd opposition so often
manifested towards labor-saving machinery,
b. those who see in every new invention an
engine whose object is to depreeiste the value
Os their labor. The greatest outcry probably
ever beard IN depunciation Of lsbor-savng
hopsement was that occasiOned by the inven-
tion OF the sewing machine, which was
regarded by many as a device Of the arch
adversary, by which thousands Of women
would be thrown out Of employment, snd
driven into tho road TO ruin, as a sole refuge
bon penury and starvation.
6at tie result proved totally different nom
L!-st expected. There was ius5 ~ much em-
= oYDsns for females then as there was preyi-
Clsiy and at no subsequent period have the
Q, ices OF certain sorts Of needlewOrls been in
sught diminished, If they have not been in
creased. Experience now goes to prove that
machinery not only rebounds 10 the benefit OF
the manufacturer and consumer, but also 70
that Of the operative. The more machinery we
have the more employment there is, and the
less ill-paid drudgery. 1t was supposed that
McCoRSucK's grain-reaper would materially
reduce the wages Of iarm-aborers, and throw
thousands entirely out of occupation. But
this is shown to have been fallacy, as farm-
iabOrers have never received so liberal a
return for their labor as they do at this very
moment
when the threshing machine first superseded
sne PAINFUL and back-breaking toll of the old
Vl 'SnlVIee nan, even then the stupid laborers
sa'Us s,ssu WIN apprehension. But who can
attribute TO the Improvement any injury to
The working elassesS We believe Il can be
proved that in proportion as greater fac,Iit,es
are acquired for the purpose, the more land
there Is brought under cultivation. We can
remember the time when hundred acres og
land were considered a large farm, and very
few individual agriculturists at the North c,,l-
tivated more than a hundred and fify acres.
Now, on the contrary we frequently iud

farms Of two hundred and fNy and three hun
dred acres cultivated with the same facility as
formerly attended the arduous task of tilllng
those Of the most scsnty Dimensions.
In fact, labor-saving machine Is a blessing
to us sll-producers, consumers, and opera
tives alike. II would be Just as absurd for
printers to utter maledictlons upon HoE's
ten-Cylinder presses, which strike of no many
thousand sheets per hour. az for femlles to
complain ofthe sewing machine, or the farm
operative TO denounce the reaper, or the car
penter TO nurse his wrath against WooD-
woRTH's planning mill. The more facilities
we have for doing work Of any kind with
speed and economy, the more such work we
shall have 20 do, and necessarily the more
operatives will be required TO perform tho
labor.
At recent meeting Of the Society Of Arts
In England, paper was read with reference
TO the manufacture Of bObblnet lace by
machinery. Mr.. FELKIS stated that although
half century old, yet In consequence Of the
Introduction Of machinery, the price had fallen
from one hundred shillings per square yard TO
sixpence, and the number Of machines had
increased from one hundred and forty in 1915
to thirty-hve hundred In 1858. Before machi-
merry was invented, In England, for this busl-
ness, the amount Of bobbnet lace made there
was orly about two millions ofdollars per year.
The amount now made exceeds in value
thirty millions of dollars annually. Finy
years ago the number Of hands employed in
Great Britain, In making bobblnet lace, was
less than eight thousand. The number en-
gagged in the business at the present time Is
upwards Of one hundred and thlrty-one thou.
sand.
After peruslng facts like these, and weigh
ing them In the scales OF common sense, the
absurdlty of the idea entertained by some
people in opposition to lSbor-ssving machines
becomes strikingly apparent.

the naval recruiting station In Front street was

OF the present state OF afhiTs, the Government Is
deprived of. Instead Of thirty o day being
received, which is now the average, there wOnld
the means were provided for the examination
and mastering In of the men. Many who were
in the line yesterday for hours left In disgust
because il was evident that they had little or no
chance to be admitted. The "ring" was in power
again, as no one could fail to see, Up 70 nearly
II O'Clock only three or four Of the "outsiders'
had been admitted, and a general feeling of dis
satisfaction was expressed. Certain agents and
brokers had the run OF the place, and seemed to
