brought to light by DR.. Stark. the fol-
lowing appear 20 be the most impor-
tan.: That were all the town children
Of Scotland reared in the country. At
least 5000 lives would b annually saved
10 the population secord. could the
mortality OF the towns tie brought
down TO that Of the mainland districts
upward .f $4,000 lives would be thus
sayed TO the population. AVID every in-
dividuAl living in the large towns
would. on an average. live i04 years
longer than he has any chance Of d
ing at present. Still further. il from
the rural districts were excluded the
towns with population varying from
three thousand to ten thousand iphabi-
tants. the mean age Of death would
have been 40 years instead Of IS, and.
could the mortality Of towns be brought
down TO tha. of the purely rural dis
tricts oF the mainland, then the average
life of the town population would be
increased about fifteen years.

Tho End OF On. Reform Movement.

The End OF One Reform Movement.
Peter Cooper described in his interview
yesterday in vivid terms the rise and fall Of
the Citizens Association. of which he was
president, and which was started to break
down Tweed in the zenith of Tweed's power.
This Citizens Association was composed Of
the best names in New York The practical
operation was left to one or two subordi-
mates. The chief subordinate was Mr..
Sands, who was paid by the association ten
thousand dollars year. But notwithstand-
ing this munifcent salary, which Sands GER
tainly earned by running down every editor
in New York, Peter b. captured him and the
association. For long time Sands was
serving Peter G. for ten thousand year, and
Peter b. for good deal more. As soon as
Peter c. found out that Sands had gone over
to Peter b. he hustled him out. But the
usefulness Of the Reform Citizens Associa-
ton was at an end. BY the way it would be
worth while inquiring how many deserving
citizens gained power by means of this re-
form association. The difficulty with reform
associations is that the honest citizens will
not attend to them any more than thoy do
to politics and elections. If honest men
were to give their time to their duties as citi-
zens there would be no need of reform
associations

A HINT TO THE Boys. newspaper
boys are work az up Blaine in style that
recalls the halcyon days of Schuyler Colfax.
When Schuyler was scheming for his adj
vanccment he was wont to spend his time on
Newspaper Row, in Washington, telling the
correspondents how much he admired them
and how he wished he were President, if
only for week, that he might give them all
first class missions. But when Schuyler be-
came Vice President he never went near the
boys, and when they came near him he lee
tured them on the dignity and independence
Of the press and how the gigantic minds Of
the correspondents should be above political
or official ambition. We are afraid that If
Blaine became President he might have high
ideas about the dignity of journalism. The
boys should not be too precipitate and con-
fding in their affections. The only usc a
politician ever has for ajournalist IL to use
him.

The New York delegation held consulta-
ton yesterday for the purpose of deciding
on their course in the Convention. The
result showed very near approach to unan-
unity in their support of Mr. Conkling. Mr..
Curtis had an opportunity of proving that
he has as little influence with the delegates
as he had in the State Convention. He told
the Convention that if Mr.. Conkling is
nominated New York, Ohio and Massachu-
setts will be lost to the republican party.
But the other delegates are as competent to
Judge of Mr. Conkling's chances for carry
ING New York as Mr.. Curtis and there seems
some presumption in his setting up his in
dividual opinion against thatof the delega-
ton and against the views and wishes of the
republican party Of New York as declared
by their State Convention. Mr.. Curtis said
that leading delegate from Massachusetts,
had told him that Conkling could not carry
that State. That Massachusetts, gentle
man, whoever he may be, would be
able to assure his colleagues, in like
manner that leading delegate from
New York had assured him that Conk-
ling could not carry his own State but if
the Massachusetts man be such an odd
sheep in the flock as Mr.. Curtis is in his
own delegation his single opinion may not
be quite conclusive If Mr.. Curtis means
that he will no. vote for the nominee of the
Convention if it should be Conkling he has
no right rs man of honor to enter the Con-
vention ut oil. Blu. if Mr.. Curtis would vote
for Conkling in the event of his nomina-
ton it is probable that all other republic
cans in New York would do so too, for there
is no other republican in the State who op-
poses Mr.. Conkling with so much bitterness
1t is hardly consistent with political good
faith TO take part in convention and then
refuse to be bound by its action. There
would be no sense in holding political con-
ventions if the decision Of tho majority did
not bind the minority. This first principle
Of party fealty seems to sit very loosely on
Mr. Curtis He opposed yesterday resolu-
ton couched in the very words of the SYRIA
cuse Convention.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1876-06-13

Tho reports from Cincinnati show that the
confidence of the Conkling men is steadily
increasing, and that there is real
increase of strength as basis for this
growing confidence. The votes of the
South, the votes of the Pacific States and
Territories, together with those OF New
York and Pennsylvania, would give Mr.
Conkling very nearly a majority and it is
next to certain that he will receive these and
large additions from other States The
Conkling canvass has been managed with
consummate skill. No effort has been
wasted in States not essential to success. In
politics ms in war it is the perfection OF
strategy to find tho key positions which
command all the others, and concentrate
upon these. for when they have been taken
the others will fall of themselves. The
delegates Of New York, Pennsylvania, the
South and the Pacific coast are about all
that Mr.. Conkling needs to insure his nomi-
nation, and as soon rs it is seen that he has
these delegates from other States will hasten
to support him, as wishing to be on the win
ming side and to stand we'll with the new adj
ministration.
The methods by which this result is to be
accomplished are already partially disclosed.
To Senator Jones has been assigned the task
of taking care of the delegates from tho Pa
cifc coast and mining regions. He will not
attempt to draw them away from Blaine
or to proselytize them in any way.
He has taken one of the finest houses
in Cincinnati, which he will keep open till
tho adjournment Of the Convention, dis
pcnsing liberal and profuse hospitality and
bestowing marked social attentions on the
Pacific coast delegates. His great wealth.
his high standing in that interesting section
of the country, his knowledge of and devo-
ton to it's interests, will render his hospi-
talities peculiarly pleasing to the Pacific
delegates. He will hardly talk politics to
payne will flow like river, and the pleasant
joke the lively repartee, the arts by which
m accomplished host makes his guests
feel pleased with themselves and with him,
will put that part Of the delegates in such
humor that they will be easily influenced
Meanwhile, in pursuance of the Napoleonic
strategy Of striking the enemy at some vital
point, the Blaine delegates from some inn
portant Statewill be led to break and desert
Probably Illinois, which is the largest of the
Blaine States, will be selected for this ex-
pertinent, especially if, as our late de-
spatches assure us, Logan should unite
forces with Conkling and accept the
Vice Presidency as the price of the alli-
ance. No matter where the Illinois
delegates go, it is enough if they break
and scatter. The moment this is done it
will be seen that Blaine is out of the contest
The time will then be ripe for bringing the
Pacific delegates into the Conkling camp.
where they will naturally go MS soon as
Blaine is abandoned. The District of Co
lumbia delegates being jealous for Conkling
we will class them with those from the Terri
tories, and with the delegates from the Pacific
States the contingent commanded by Sem
ator Jones will present the following muster

ANOTHER SAVINGS BAxK.--Wc hear that
another savings bank has fallen into the
hands Of the receiver. Can there not be
some punishment for these robbers of the
poor7 We think that If Uncle Sammy TIL
den were to take his mind from the canvass
for the Presidency long enough to make IN
example of some of these bank plupderers
it would be a benefit to his canvass. The
time has come to punish some Of these pre-
cious scamps. The fact that they are mainly
men Of wealth and position should only
nerve the Governor in tho performance Of
his duty.

THE WAY IT Is DONE. Here is q sample Of
the manner in which public opinion is
manufactured. We quote from the gushing
despatch of one of the Blaine boys:--"The
Colorado delegation arrived in force" (there
are two delegates, we believe). This morn
ing Governor Routt, who accompanies
them said the Territory is actually ablaze
for Blaine" among the republicans every
man, woman and child is for Blaine, besides
many OF the democrats, and if he is nomi.
mated bonfires will be kindled on every peak
Of the Rocky Mountains, and the people
will actually go wild" Nothing is said as
to the feeling among the Utes and the
antelopes, which are by far the most
numerous portion of the population Of
Colorado. We like to see correspondent
when he goes into the business of manu-
featuring public opinion give his soul to it.
