The Methodist Ministers in Boston, in Convention
at Wesleyan Hall, resolved to support none but a
prohibitionist for Governor" hailing with satisfac-
ton the advent of a Governor in Massachusetts, who
is not mortgaged to the rum shops,'' and pledging
their best efforts to secure the return Of Hon. Thomas
Talbot to the Gubernatorial chair. The Convention
was addressed by Revs. Joshua Gill, Mark Trafton,
DR.. Thayer, '. 4. Cooper, c. n. Smith, DIR. Ella and
others. Mark Trafton in abiding to party politics,
said You will never make any progress in this
great cause until every man and woman with politi-
cal and moral influence steps square out and says
We are here. If you want our help come to u.s.
As the new ten hour laws goes into effect in Mas
sachusetts on the LIST proximo, the manufacturers of
that State are making preparations to comply with
its provisions. The cotton, wooden and thread manu-
facturers will be chiefly effected, as the paper manu-
facturers are running on short time. The manufac-
turers. after general conference, have adopted the
following time table From Z A NJ. to 1915 P. N. and
from l to 6 P. NJ. on the first FIVE days of each week,
and on Saturdays from Z A. NJ. to 1915 P. N. and
from ! to 4:30 P. NJ. The wages to be paid under the
new arrangement, will be in most cases proportion
ately the same as paid for eleven hours labor, or in
other words, one-eleventh smaller than formerly.
The consumption Of spirits is annually inereas
ing in Great Britain, and during FIVE years past
the committals for drunkenness have increased
sixty per cent. Onc-half the dTHnkards arrested
in Liverpool last year were women. viz. 6.763 out
of , .z40 arrests. The committals Of women had
increased about in the same ratio as committals in
general. This fact is attributed to the sale of drink
by grocers. by the author Of a paper contributed
TO the Association for the Advancement OF Science.
The growing prevalence OF drunkenness among
both sexes OF the working classes is ascribed by
the same writer, first, to the higher wages paid:
second, to the shorter hours o! labor. and third. to
the increased facilities for obtaining drink. Never
have so many and earnest efforts been made for the
social, educational and religious Improvement Of
the working people as during this period when
they have given themselves more than ever tn in
temperance. One has TO infer either that these
efforts have been futile through acknowledgement. or /
the obduracy OF those Instructed, or that a snpera- I
OF rest is d emoraIizing.

time Of his departure from this

Railroad u So EN- on Thursday,
where they can be seen by tIl.~e
who like to look at well-~haped,
fine looking animas Of the horse
kind, that have great size and
strength combined with perfect
action. The Percherms are the
animals to get away with huge
l,,als and at a rapid gait. 1t is
certainly the stock our farmers
want.

A RUNAwAY.-On Tuesday, as
Mrs. Luper was driving a pair Of
spirited animals attached to a
buggy, accompanied hylerdaughter
Jennie, and when nearly opposite
the residence of Mr.. Hiram >meed.
she discovered that some part OF the
buggy gearing had become loose,
when ste stopped the team and
got ont 10 see what was the matter
Upon search she found that nut
hal dropped from one Of the bolts,
and Jennie, wishing To aid her
mother IN fixing the vehicle, handed
her the lines preparatory to alight-
Ing. The ribbons had scarcely left
her hands when the horses became
frightened, jumped forward, throw
ing Miss 4nler back OH to the seat,
and drawing the lines out of the
hands OF Mrs. Luper. The team
ran on past Mr.. Burkllsrt's To
where the road turns sharply to the
south, when the buggy turned over
and the team stopped. Miss Luper
was pretty badly hut, but no bones
were broken, and as she was per-
feCtly cool during the entire race,
was not as badly injured as size
otherwise might have been. How
ever, considering the circumstances,
it was a miraculous escape. The
buggy aud team received but trif-
ling damage.

SpEcuLATlvE?-We see that
parties in Portland have paid as

while as high as 32!c has been paid
il Sa'em. Whether these sales it,
dicate the ruling prices Of w,n'l for
the season, or whether they are
" speculative" we can only conjec-
ture. We are inclined to the opin-
ion. however, that they were extra
lots. and therefore brought extra
prices. We quote wool at &c as
the ruling price here, altlmngh we
have heard Of 28c heing offered tor
special lots.

Mr.. VAN CLEvE: Dear SIR
The great political battle Of L4inn
county has been fought, and the
Independents Of Linn county have
gained a grand victnry over the
Democratic party. The Democracy
claimed the county by two hnodred
majority, but the result Of the cleo
ton shows that we captured f;nr
Of their candidates for the Legs
lature. aud sent them up salt River.
Mr. Rice hal turty majority in
Brownsville precinct over Morris.
There were Just six Democrats in
this precinct who voted ior Morris,
and over thirty Republicans who
vo.e,l for Rice. The Democrats
have votei all the negroes aud all
the paures and all the blind TOR
Rice, aml then did not get any
more votes in Linn county than
Morris. It is my opinion that
Morris is elected ny a majority Of
the legal voters OF Linn, cmluty.
There is one thing certain: we
will carry this county in 1876; and
we are confident Of sufficient ma
jurity il the Legislature To elect an
independent as our next U. $. Sen
ator. Yours Truly,
Il. w. HENDERSON.
