THE RUTLAND HERALD
Republican STATE Convention.

The Union Republican State Conven-
ton for the appointment of delegates to
the Republican National Convention, to
be held at Philadelphia, June 9th, assem-
bled at Union Hall, Bellows Falls, at
~ o'clock M, yesterday
The convention was called to order by
Hon. George G.. Benedict, chairman of
the State Committee, when the call was
read by Col. Kittredge Haskins, secre-
tary.
On motion of Hon. George Nichols, of
Mortified, Hon. G. G. Benedict was ap-
pointed temporary president. On TAX
ing the chair, Mr. Benedict addressed
the convention as follows
Delegates Il take pride and pleasure
In directing, though for few moments
only, the proceedings of this convention;
for | see in it a body of staunch and true
republicans, recognizing their allegiance
to the great Republican party; and
gathered to promote, through that party,
the welfare of the nation. To-day, anoth-
er convention meets in Western city,
to establish the practice of minority rule
to say to the Republican party that if
it will not be controlled by a sOured and
self-seeking faction, they will do their
utmost to divide and destroy the party.
Gentlemen, think we here are agreed
that an honest and fairly constituted
majority shall rule, as well in the party
in the choice of nominees, as in the ma
ton in the election of candidates. The
men at Cincinnati have discovered that
they cannot rule 1t is for the republi-
cans Of the nation to see to it that they
do not ruin. To that end it becomes us
and all who have the welfare of the par
ty at heart, to take wise and harmonious
counsel, and united and efficient action.
The roll of delegates was then called
by the secretary

present spasm in gold and favorable ex-
change help them somewhat. These,
however, cannot be counted on MIXTURE
operations.

MODERN REPoRTING.-The New York
Standard touches off local reporter as
follows:
Zone of our neighbors has a city re-
porter who seems to have imbibed bun
KUN with his mothers milk. He has an
ordinary street robbery to report Some
scallawag has seized a Iady's purse on
Broadway. How does he 90 to work at
that? First comes a description of the
serene sky and the crowded earth,
comprehensive glance at the state of hu-
manity generally, when Mrs. Shocks set
forth for Madame McFlimsey's popular
store to purchase one of those famous
cheap shoe strings so widely known and
appreciated. The reporter then involves
from his inner consciousness his theory
as to the workings of Mrs. Shocks
mind. At this stage he interpOlates the
thrilling history of Shorty BullOcks ear
ly life, and his mothers prayers, and
ShOrtys innate wickedness With patient
minutie he brings young BullOck's career
up to the point of Mrs. Shocks unfor-
tunate rencontre. just here he DIVORCES
into condemnation of wOman's weak
ness in carrying a pocket book in her
claw, when she should use her breeches
pocket. This naturally suggests the
wOman's rights mOvement-Cady Stan
ton and Anna Dickinson. Finally. by
easy stages, we go back to the onslaught
of Shorty on Shook pocket book, the
flight, the pursuit and its incidental
features.

Late Dairy Markets.
CHEESE

The season may now be considered
fairly opened. Most, if not all. of the
cheese factories are in operation We
learn of but very few new factories
opening this spring. The orders of man
ufacturers of watts have been, for factory
purposes, mostly from the Western
States, while of small watts, for private
dairy use, there has been fair demand
throughout the dairy region There is
in the neighbOrhOod of Utica no increase
of factories that will materially increase
the make of cheese while many fac
tories have made preparation for MAKING
butter by Swimming the nights milk.
The stock of cheese is well cleared out
OF the country, but there is poor de-
mand in England for American cheese
The cable has gone down another sbil-
ling during the week, and our market
has declined about one cent. with con-
tinued strong downward tendency Fine
old is not worth more than 160f7c. in
New York, andnew is quoted at 13@15c.
But, as yet, all the new is of inferior
quality-rather poorer than hay-made
generally, as the weather has been cold
and unfavorable for curing. The indi-
cations now are that 15c. will be the ex-
IRENE figure for new, for some time to
come. This appears to be as high as
shippers can afford to pay. 1t is equal
to OBS, which would leave margin of
only As. for transportation across the
water and handling on both sides, with
the cable at CTS. A margin of 6s. to los.
Is usually allowed. So shippers who paw
l5c. must realize on an average at least

SG.46S 1884

While the receipts have this year been
about the same as last, it will be seen
that the exports are 116, 289 boxes less.
The exports to January list were SO, 799
more last year than they were the year
before. But the falling off since makes
the balance on the other side 27,510
boxes. The receipts of January 1st were
81, 754 boxes less than the year before.
Subsequent receipts do not much vary
these figures to the present time. 1t
would seem from this that the make of
1871 was about 100000 boxes less than
in 1870

INFECTION IN THE AIR

: At this season the vegetable world takes
a new lease of life; but to the sensitive
and delicate members of the human fami-
ly it is time of danger and often of great
suffering. The moisture which rises from
the earth and hangs suspended over ii in
the form of morning and evening mists
and fogs, holds in solution, so to speak, the
mephitic elements which produce fever
and ague, remittent fevers, rheumatism
and many painful nervous disturbances.
and which aggravate dyspepsia, bilious
ness and all minor affections of the stom-
ach and bowels. This, therefore is a crit
ical period of the year, a season when the
renovating refreshing and purifying oper-
alton of the mightiest of all vegetable ton
les and alternatives, Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters, is salvation to the weak, ami the
best security for the continuance of The
health and yigor OF the strong. Now is the
time not only to protect the system against
the common ailments of the season, but to
prevent the disorders incident to a warm
er temperature. Let not the exhausting
heats OF the summer months find you un-
prepared to meet them. y course of Hos
letters Bitters, commenced now, will put
all the physical energies IN lighting trim,
doub e the capacity of the internal organs
10 repel the causes of disease, refresh the
brain and clear il of ali hypochondraicaI
cobwebs, and place the whole physique in
an attitude Of defence, with every ayaila-
nearly invulnerable to unwbolesome in
nuences as it is possible for the human
structure to be.
KEEP THE HAIR UNBLEMIsHEp.-"I am
like an old hemlock-withered at the top'
said venerable Indian Chief, pointing to
his thin and bleaching locks. Thousands
of men and women in civilized society,
much younger than the old Sycamore, are
like him, ''withered at the top simply be-
cause they have neglected to use the means
of preserving and beautifying the hair
which science had placed at their disposal.
If Lyons Kathairon be faithfully applied
once or twice a dav. to the fibers and the
scalp, 1t is just as impossible that the hair
should decay, wither, fall out or become
harsh and fuzzy, as that a meadow, duly
refreshed with nightly dews and sunlit
rains, should become arid and barren of
green blades. This matchless preparation
not only keeps the hair alive and the skin
of the head in a healthy and clean condi-
ton, but actually multiplies the flaments
and imparts TO them a lustre, flexibility
and wavy beauty uaattainable by any
other mode Of treatment. 1t does not, like
the metallic and sulphurOus hair dyes, dry
up the natural moisture Of the scalp, but
supplies nutriment to the roots of the hair
and vigor to the fibers.

Here is the real and simple way in which
Mr.. Theodore TiltOn disposes Of the charge
that be is the murderous creature who cut
the throat Of Schuyler Colfax at Philadel-
phia:
As the editor Of the Golden Age is IN
justly reproached with having defeated Mr..
COlfax's nomination at Philadelphia let US
make short and simple answer to this i'm
parchment. About two years ago friend
of Mr.. COlfax handed to Mr.. Tilton, for
publication in the Independent, the famous
letter announcing his rrevoeable deter
mination to retire from public life at the
close Of his existing Vice Presidency. This
letter was Immediately published, with
highly fattering remarks concerning Mr..
Colfax. These remarks were based on the
assurance, which the letter contained, that
Mr.. Colfax would positively and peremptO-
rily eschew all further political life. We
took him at his word, and thought we were
doing him favor by eulogizing a bosom
which could thus, by one sublime act,
empty itself of all human ambition. His
letter, we are informed, was used at Phila-
delphia as the fatal dagger which sacrificed
Mr.. Colfax on the altar of one term. But
we insist that Mr.. Colfax died by mis- own
hand-not by ours. We distinctly remem-
Der regretting his letter at the time, and
wishing it had come, not from Vice Presi-
dent COlfax, but President Grant
