Jewell was elected by majority of one

each party expresses great confidence in
its own success. In State where polit-

result is quite as urcertain as the scheme

On Saturday night the committee np-
pointed TO try the contested election case
Of Mcclure vs. Gray heard the argument
of counsel in the senate chamber at IIar-
risburg. Messrs. Hagert and Cassidy
spoke in behalf Of the contestant, and Mr.
Briggs for Gray. Mr.. Cassidy made a
powerful argument and claimed that the
election of Mcclure by at least 1900 ma
jority of the legal votes cast was estab-
Eshed beyond doubt. Mr.. Briggs adj
mitted reduction in the reported major
ity for Gray, but claimed that enough
margin was still left to entitle his client to
retain his seat. The committee will soon
render decision.
Z. s. Gu Wednesday the committee
reported in favor of Col Mcclure, who
was Immediately sworn into Office and
took his seat. AS we have not seen the
report we are unable to state the reasons
In detail on which tho majority of the
committee base their action. Ii is safe
to say, however, that from the magnitude
of the frauds developed during the inves>
tigatior, public sentiment had anticipated
the conclusion at which the committee
has arrived. Tue result sounds the death
knoll of the corrupt and lawless radical
election ling in Philadelphia This alone
is u triumph of right and justice at which
all honest men will rejoice exceedingly.

The Cincinnati Convention.

The Cincinnati Convention.
The great object of political interest
Just now is the Convention of liberal anti
Grant republicans which will assemble
at Cincinnati on Wednesday, the lst Of
May. Il promises to be largely attended
and to number among its members many
OF the ablest and most influential meu in
the republican ranks-men who laid the
foundations and built up the fortunes of
that party when u S. Grant was an OBJ
scure resident of Missouri, without any
fixed political opinions.
Although the Cincinnati convention
was not originally called for the purpose
Of nominating candidates for the P:csi.
dency nj Vice Presidency, but TO express
its stern opposition to the bluEders and
corruptions of Grants administration and
to announce the essential and true princi-
oles upon which the government ought to
be administered, it seems now to be pret-
~ well settled that national ticket will
be placed in nomination 1t seems also
to be understood that one of the four fol.
lowing named gentlemen will be nomina-
ted as It's candidate for President, viz :
Judge Davis, of Illinois, Lyman Trum-
b.r, Of the same State, Governor Brown,
of Missouri, or Charles Francis Adams,
! of Massachusetts Judge Davis is al
ready the nominee of the Labor Reform
party, which organization had recently
an opportunity of exhibiting its strength
at the election in New Hampshire, where
it claimed TO be well organized and to be
mighty power in the State, and yet it
did not poll over -fce humdr1d votes. If
this miserable effort in one of its boaste6
stronSholds WAS a fair indication of its
strength throughout the country, then as
aform:daLic political body i; is '.nut worth
row sf pins" and the Labor Reform
party may as well hang up its harp and
its candidate on the willows.
Judge Davis, il our opinion, will not
deveIope much force at Cincinnati. Mr..
Trumbull is gentleman Of superior at
tainments and unspotteG reputation. His
long experience as a Senator and his thor
ough acquaintance with the admiuis:ra-
tive affairs OF the government eminenily
qualify him for the office of President
/ Governor Brown is Il man of marked abil-
ity and great decision of character, and
may be regarded as the originator of the
Missouri movement. Like Judge rrum,
bull, he commenced political life as a
d mocrat. The chances of Charles Fran
els Adams, although he is undoubtedly
one Of Tie foremost statesmen of The coun
try, will be materially lessened from the
fact that in New England, where he re.
sidea, the liberal movement has not made
very rapid progress All the indications
therefore point 10 the nomination either of
Mr.. Trunbull or Gov. Brown. If there
is any substantial difference between the
political views entertained by these two
gentlemen and those held by jeremiah S.
Black, Thomas a. Hendricks, Allen J
Thurman, and other acknowledged demo
cratic leaders, we confess tha, we have
not been able TO discover it. With either
Trunbull or Brown as The candidate
standing on broad, liberal and honest
platform, the fate of the present corrupt
and Jebbing administration is irrerocably
doomed.

Among Ourselves.

We have always thought, and several
times have taken occasion to say so,
that the County Conventions in this
District were held too late. We desire
to repeat this, with the reasons for our
conclusion. The last Convention in
the Senatorial District assemblies Aug.
20, and it is hardly possible to make y
district nomination which shall be an
nounced in the papers of that week.
| And thus the campaign is made so
short, that even if nominations are
promptly made, there is no time to
adjust differences, mollify disappoint-
ments, or test the qualifications of the
| candidates.
Neither the Bradford nor Wyoming
papers have yet published the call fol
their County Conventions, and thus thu
Congressional nominations seems likely
to lag till the early days of September
giving just about time enough to an
nounce the names of candidates, ,ant
print and circulate the tickets. In {
close District it makes success impossible
for want of time to canvass the voters
Every nomination in the Distric
ought to be made by or before the mid
die of August, or at farthest by the 2Otl
of that month. We call attention t
this now so that the County Conven
tions can change the time if they Sc
fit. The Conventions now assemble q
follows:
: Columbia-Second Tuesday in Al
gust.
Moatour-Third Monday in Angus
Lycoming-Third Tuesday in Al
gust.
= Sullivan-Second Tuesday in Angus
BradfOrd-not announced.
Wyoming-not announced.
We repeat the Importance of earl
= Conventions, and trust our politics
o friends will reform their tardiness alt
+ gether.

SMALL. POX.-Your remarks upon
the above disease in your last issue, in
duce me to send you the following
article, in the hope that if any cases
should occur here they may be slight
by reason of preparation for them. In
case of an attack lemon or two daily,
to be eaten might be greatly beneficial,
if the theory be correct.
"The curious theory is propounded by
a physician in Germany that smallpox
originates from an excess of albuminous
matter in the blood, and that this is to
be prevented by the administration of
common salt. The habit of children
indulging over freely in sweetmeats he
considers one great cause of this undue
development of albumen, and coffee
and tea, if highly sugared, tend also to
excite it in adults. An organic acid,
such as lemon juice, be considers the
hest means of freeing the blood when
clogged up with too much albumen
and ne alleges that by taking these
simple remedies, in the way of pre-
caution, he has, for upward of twelve
years past, frequented or taken up his
abode in the most pestilential smallpox
hospitals in Europe and South-America
with entire impunity." G.

A disturbance occurred on Main
Street last Saturday which bid fair at
one time to grow to riotous proportions,
and which finally eliminated in the ar
rest of four colored mon after quite a
severe struggle. Constable Woodward
was called upon by Bernhard Stohner
to take charge of James Archie, who
was drunk and disorderly in his saloon.
Woodward told Archie to go home
which he profanely refused to do, as he
did also to 60 before President Menden-
hall. The Constable then laid hands
upon Archie to compel him to go with
him when, as he alleges, three colored
men, Ephraim Parks, George Briggs
and John Brewer interfered and so en-
barassed him in the performance of his
duties, that Archie escaped and ran
away. The three men were taken before
Mr.. Mendenhall who fined Parks $1,000
and costs and the Others each $500 and
costs. Archie was subsequently arrested
and bound over in the sum of $500 to
appear at Court. The worst feature of
this disgraceful affair was the conduct
of the majority of those who witnessed
| it, and who either turned deaf ear to
the request of the Constable for assis'
tance or encouraged the colored men in
their resistance to the officer. We are
informed that Mr.. Woodward intends
to have several of those arrested who
| refused to render him assistance.
1t Is about time that summary justice
was meted out to this incorrigible dar-
| key james Archie who oisanuisanceanda a
| disgrace to the town. lie has been in
similar trouble time and again and fails
to profit by the lesson. The people have
had enough of him and his doings and
il is earnestly hoped by all respectable
citizens that when he comes up for trial
he may receive such punishment as will
convince him, at least, that it will be
safer for him hereafter to lead decent
and orderly life if he expects to remain
| here. If this is not done we may be
called on at some time to chronicle a
graver offence against the law commit
ted by him. Rowdyism and rioting are
very fortunately of rare occurrence in
Bloomsburg of late, but this will not be
the case if assistance is refused to an
officerin making arrests, and aid and
comfort afforded to those resisting him
1t is perfectly well known that Mr..
Woodward is the only Constable this
town has ever had who has kept order
i'll public places and it is duty each
citizen owes his fellow townsmen to see
that this order is preserved. We hope
this is the last time we may be called
on to mention any reluctance to render
aid when called for.

HARD AND SOFT WATER FOR Cook
ING.-The effects of hard and soft water
in cooking vegetables vary materially.
Peas and beans cooked in hard water
containing lime or gypsum, will not
boil tender, because these substances
harden vegetable caseine. In soft water
they boil tender, and lose a certain rank,
raw taste, which they retain in hard
water. Many vegetables las onions) boil
tasteless in soft water because all the
flavor is dissolved out. The addition OF
salt often checks this, las in the case OF
onions) causing the vegetables to retain
the peculiar flavoring principles, besides
much nutritious matter which might
be lost in soft water. Thus it appears
that salt hardeus the water to degree
For extracting the juices of meat tc

salted, and cold at first, Is best, for II
more readily penetrates the tissue; but
for boiling meat where the juices should
be retained, hard water or soft watel
salted is preferable, and themeat should
be put in while it is boiling so as to sea
