W(ant) More Robbins stopped at popu-
lar saloon on the Avenue yesterday and called
for the proprietor. The master Of the place
appeared, and was led to the sidewalk, when
and where Robbins, with stern voice, which
appeared to come from some place in the
direction of his boots, said: tbs that.your
signp eyes" said George; "why, what of
IT." ss'Well, sir, / have poticed fifteen of them
since came on the Avenue, and l regard
them as personal insult to me. If they are
not taken down by tomorrow will take legal
proceedings against allof you." "AhlI see, !"
said G. "Your name is probably Robbins; If
that is so, can assure you this sign was up
here long before we heard of the Beilkuap
scandal. fXX' ale has been used for many
years." "D-n the ale; I'll never drink any
more of it," is what George thinks Robbins
said as he posted along.

practicable after lts meeting 20 call, appoint

to elect delegates otbe National Consention,

TO act for themselves. When they assemble
to appoint delegates to the State Convention
they can also appoint delegates to the several
Congressional District Conventions. They
have no choice but to do this, or allow the
State Convention to choose delegates for the
districts as well rs for the State at large. The
State Convention ought to have been called
for some day 10 April. That body could
then have regularly referred the matter to the
districts in time for the election Of delegates.
AS the case now stands, however, 1t would
be next to impossible to have District Con-

There is DO chance, therefore, we repeat, for.
The districts to secure the appointment each

by the horns and act for themselves. The
selection Of q day which would prevent
