The least exposure to either damp or draught was

God for the result. have, in ALL taken twelve

REPUBLICAN STATE CONVEN-
TION In BANGOR.
w. vi. Rust Of Belfast, is
Chosen Chairman
DELEGATES ARRIVING IN LARGE
NUMBERS.

Bangor June 2l-l0 80 p. NJ. The Republican
State Convention meets in this city tomorrow.
1t will be merely formal affair. nothing of
particular interest will occur. AT meeting of
the State committee this evening, W. NJ. Rust of
Belfast was chosen chairman.
The Fourth District convention also meets to-
morrow afternoon; delegates to it arrived in large
numbers this evening. There is a contest over
a congressional nominee. l.. Powers of Houlton,
is the most prominent candidate. Aroostook
sends 20 delegates for him, who have signed pa
per tonight, agreeing to stand by him to the last
Piscataquis delegates are almost to unit for him,
and Penobscot divided. ii. M. Plaisted, the
present incumbent, will contest the nomination,
although his forces are not so strong as Powers,
and not SO well organized. But they express
their determination to fight hard.
1t is not improbable that there will be severe
fight in the convention, and the result is consider
ed doubtful.
Delegates to the State convention have arrived
in small numbers. Prominent republicans in the
State are here, including Nelson Dingley, j. L.
Stevens. and several members of the press.
Especial Despatch to the Daily Kennebec Journal.
bangor, June IL DelcSalcS 10 tuc otatc Cou-
vention to meet tomorrow, have rrrived in large
numbers. Reports from all sections indicate great
disappointment at the defeat of Mr. Blaine, but
determination to support heartily the nomination
of Hayes. The convention will be quite large and
Gen. Conner will be re nominated by reclamation.
The State committee has decided that Hon. VIM.
M. Rust of Belfast will be called to preside
George B. Goodwin of Bddeford, G. c. Nose of
Augusta, and D. II. Knowlton of Pennington will
be Isecretares. For electors at large the names
are mentionedhof Hon. Nelson Dingley, Jr., Hon.
Sidney Perham, Hon. Nathan Farwell, and Hon.
Josiah II. Drummond. There is considerable ex
element in regard to the Fourth District conven-
ton to be held here to morrow. Mr.. Powers is
here with his Aroostook forces, and states that he
is certain of his nomination. He claims - out Of
II delegates from that county. Piscataquis is SOL
id for him. One third of the delegates from Pc
nobscot are for Mr.. Plaisted. There few
earnest men here bitterly opposed to the nomina-
ton of Powers, and they intend to have their say
tomorrow. The majority of the delegates from
Aroostook have signed a paper that Mr. Powers is
their choice, and they will vote for no other man.

Close OF q Busy Life.

John Neal, the we'll known author, who died in
Portland, on Tuesday, was nearly SO years of age,
having been born in Portland on the 25th of Au-
gust, 1898. His parents were members Of the
Society Of Friends. At the age Of II years the
boy was put behind the counter in dry goods
store. When he left school he was familiar with
reading, writing and arithmetic, but knew nothing
whatever of geography, English grammar or Of
the other branches which now belong to a COM
mon school education. He afterwards served IS
clerk, taught penmanshp, etc., and removed to
Portsmouth, where he was deputy commissioner
for the purchase Of clothing for the army and

up school, but failed. He then travelled as q
drawing master, taking India ink portraits. In

The Press thus alludes to a great improvement
in the form of blanks, just inaugurated by Secrc-
tary of State Chadbourne
The last Legislature made it the duty OF the
Secretary of State to issue the blanks for election
returns to the cities, towns and plantations instead
of having the distribution made by the shertfs of
the respective counties. The form Of the blanks
heretofore used are as old as the State and
long before the use of envelopes became general.
The Secretary of State, after consulting proper
authorities, has got up forms Of similar charac-
ter, and to facilitate the proper making up of the
returns and obviate the necessity of sealing wax,
waters or muclage, has enclosed each blank re-
turn in an envelope which is addressed to the
proper officials, and has also printed upon it the
nature of the enclosed return. 1t is great i'm
movement upon the old form.
