Fraud In obtaining names to tina ''Liber-

Fraud In obtaining names to tina '.Iiber-
al" Call.
To the Editor of The Journal:
was greatly surprised to-day by seeing my
name attached to call published in the
Maine Standard for a Congressional Conven-
ton in this district. My name was obtained
under total misrepresentation of the character
of the convention and Misrepresentation of
its objects. 1t is quite evident now that the
machine is to be run merely as a side door
arrangement to the democratic party, and my
opinion is that most of the republicans on the
call were deceived in the same way into sign.
ing it. More than half the signers have not
voted the republican ticket for years. For
myself shall vote for Mr.. Blaine, and all the
republican nominees, and have no doubt
that many Of the signers to the call will do
the same. J. F. Snow.

papers: "Thcy enhance the value Of

that would do a town more harm
than to be without its newspaper
You need not think the publisher Of
a newspaper can run it for your

his own pocket. Give your own

The Senate met at IL o'clock, a.
M, President Trammell in the chair.
A message was received from the
House stating the adoption of res
olution providing for a joint commit
tee to arrange for the ceremony of
inauguration, was concurred in.
Mr.. Hinton, chairman of the joint
special committee on adjournment
reported that several measures of
general importance demand the ac-
ton of the General Assembly at the
present session, after which they
recommend adjournment.
Mr.. Nunnally moved to lay the
report on the table for the present.
Lost.
The report was adopted.
Mr.. Reese, chairman of the joint
special committee, appointed to con-
slider and report upon the charges
preferred by the State School Com
missioner against the Legislature in
letter dated December 10, 1871,
submitted the report of the commit
tee.
The report reviewed, in an able
and trenchant manner, all the allega-
tons of said circular letter, went
thoroughly into the history of the
bond bill, and triumphantly refuted
all the allegations and errors con-
tanned in said letter, stating that in
the opinion of the committee the
same was circulated and designed to
weaken confidence in this General
Assembly. 1t recommended the
adoption of resolutions to the effect;
First, that the system of public in
struction, as now organized, cannot
be efectually put into operation un-
der the management and control of
the present School Commissioner +;
secondly, recognizing the claims of
teachers of the common schools, and
that the same shall be paid SO soon
as the necessary fund can be pro-
vided therefor.

ed by yeas 30, nays 2.
