New York Herald, May 26.)


Last Saturday evening the jury Sc
lected by the Committee of the
Bar Association to decide whether the
charges and insinuations made against
Mr.. Charles O'Conor, a prominent
member of the Bar of the United
States, by Mrs. Catherine Sinclair
Forrest and others, were founded on
facts, met at the residence of ex-Gov-
ernor John A. Dix. The jury had lis
tened to the evidence given at the
hearing of the case in Chickeriny
Hall, and had held secret session
after the close of that hearing and pre-
viOus to the meeting on Saturday eve-
ming. The jury was composed Of the
Rev. DR.. Adams of the Union Theolo-
gical Seminary, Howard Potter, Judge
J. X. Porter, Wilson G.. Hunt and ex-
Governor John A. Dix. No one of
them is member of the Bar Associa-
tion. The evidence taken at CHECKER
ing Hall was again carefully weighed.
The decision was unanimous, and a
report or verdict was written and
signed by the entire committee and
forwarded to the Sub Committee of
the Bar Association on Saturday eve-
ming last, fully exonerating Mr.. Chas.
OConor from each, every and all of
the charges made against him. AS a
matter of etiquette, the text Of that
report, which is very brief, covering
only about six pages of legal cap, will
not be made public until the regular
meeting of the Bar Association early
next month.

Not SO Easy.

The Evening Republican says, but
does not mean it, that the Republi-
cans of this district have an unexpect-
edly favorable opportunity to elect
their Congressman, this year; and
then proceeds to charge Congressman
WIGGINToN with number of sins of
omission and commission, not one of
which can be even partially sustained.
We do not now know who will be the
Republican nominee. We presume
he will be man of fair ability and
good record or no record at all. But
no matter how good or able he may
be, he has no more chance for election
than the depositors of the TEMPLE &
WORKMAN bank have OF collecting
their money from the Evening Er-
press. WIGGINToN is now serving his
first term in Congress, and we believe
his constituency is entirely satisfied
with his record. We, of this portion of
his district are content with what he
has done and what he proposes to do.
A single act of his-that of quieting
titles in this city-has made him hosts
of friends and secured him hundreds
of Republican votes. He has done
what HoUGHTON never cid do, ex-
cept about election times-recognize
the existence of Southern California,
and he Is doing what HoUGHToN nev-
er would have done-learning the
wants of the people of this part of his
district and endeavoring to remove
them. Without setting up for pro-
phet, we do not hesitate to predict
that Mr.. WIGGINToN will be re-elect.
ed by majority of not less than 5000.
Our belief is that it will reach 5000.

publican affects to see in the distance

The State Controller.

Newspapers and politicians have
had considerable TO say with refer
ence to the Controllers office of this
State, and the time when the success
sor to the present incumbent shall be
elected. The constitutionality of the
question has been argued pro and con,
and the arguments have been about
equally divided in favor of the election
of Controller at the Presidential elec-
tion this Fall and the election at the
next Gubernatorial election. Some
points in the issue have been so far
overlooked. General VAUDEVILLE
was elected Controller, and shortly
after his Installation died. The Gov
ernor appointed w. B. C. BROWN to
fill the vacancy. This was in accord
ance with the law. But almost i'm
mediately after Browns appoint
ment the discussion arose as to how
long he could hold the Office, and to
settle the matter the Legislator
passed an act providing that the Con-
troller shall be elected at each Guber-
Material election. This act, we are In
formed by one of the best consiitu-
tional lawyers In the State, Is consti-
tutional and cannot be set aside. It

AFTER reading the interviews OF
HANK SMALL, published in the San
Franciso papers, one cannot avoid the
conclusion that in the opinion OF the
reporters of those papers loco
motive engineer Must be an uncouth'
illiterate JIM BLEDsoE sort of a fellow.
The truth is that engineer SMALL Is
quite an intelligent gentleman, with
more sense and better manners than
the reporters who ridicule him In or
der to get up what they conceive, a
funny article. 1t is common mis-
take with young newspaper writers
that the man who holds throttle
lever, shoves a plane, or swings a
hammer must for the very nature OF
his occupation be both unpolished ana
unlearned. Mechanics is a science
and the engineer who understands his
business as HANK SMALL does is nei-
ther fool nor boor.

California Centennial Exhibition.

The next Industrial Fair of the Me-
chanic's Institute of San Francisco
will be held at their Pavilion on the
8th of August next. In accordance
with written request signed by 100
leading men of the State, it will be
gotten up In commemoration of the
Centennial. 1t will combine instruc-
tion and pleasure, illustrative of the
progress of the Nation during the past
hundred years. Space will be reserv.
ed only till the goth of July. A sepa-
rate building will be added for the
machinery, giving 2l0,0 900 feet of floor
room in all. Thirty thousand persons
visited the pavilion daily for consid-
erable period last year-there will be
room for many more this season.
Some Celifornians will be unable to
attend the Philadelphia exhibition,
hence we look upon this movement as
one which commends the Mechanics
Institute and deserves the cooperation
of the people.

ley, received a letter from a lady in
Sacramento, which proved to he from
a cousin whom she had not met for
siaty-two years mot since the two
were little girls, aged respectively
about fourteen years, and lived in the
Kanawha Valley of Virginia, where
they attended school together. The
Sacramento cousin bad got intimation
of the whereabouts of her Napa rela-
tive, and penned the letter spoken of,
which was the means of bringing the
aged couple together at Sacramento
soon after. 1t may he imagined how
they felt and of what they talked af-
ter such an interval, during which the
hairs of their heads had become sill
vered and unmistakable traces of old
age had left imprints upon their once
smooth brows. The meeting of these
two venerable old ladies is one Of the
pleasant incidents of this Centennial
year.

Possible Effect OF an European War.

There is some special interest for
California In the present menace of
an European war, for if Russia should
go to war the effect upon the wheat
harvest of Europe may be consider
able. In that event 1t Is probable that
a hasty conscriptIon would so deplete
the Baltic provinces as seriously to
interfere with the crop prospects. In
the last war with England precisely
this result was experienced, and we
know of no reason for anticipating a
different outcome at present. Just
now the crop prospects throughout the
world are exceptionally good, and if
nothing should occur to change them
it must be expected that wheat will
rule low. The old saying that what
Is one mans meat is another mans
poison applies here, however, as else
where, and it is possible that events
which threaten calamity to Europe
may improve the market of California
producers. s.-Sacramento Record.

The house and barn of a Mr.. Wyman, about
mile north of this village, were entirely consumed
by fire Thursday night, together with horse and
COW. The fire originated in the barn, but from
what cause it is not known. The farm was
mortgaged, but the insurance will about cover the
incumbrance.
A new and elegant flag was suspended over
Main Street, Saturday afternoon, with the names
of Hayes and Wheeler attached.
A Farmingtonian's wife recently urged upon
her husband the necessity Of clothes-reel in
place Of their unhandy arrangement, but he did
not heed the request until few days ago, after he
had become aware of the deficiency, by little
personal experience, like the following: 1t seems
that a COW had wandered into his dooryard during
the quietness of midnight, and her rustDg noise
awoke the male member of the domice. He
arose and emerged into the gloom after the un-
conscious trespasser. In rousing around among
the bushes and trees he did not learn of the
presence of firmly fastened clothes line, until he
was caught under the CHA and nome ntarily lifted
from the ground. His promiscuous remarks at
that moment defed interpretation but evidently
savored of desire for change in the existing
laundry department. which was soon after accom-.
plished, as stated above.

Hayes and Wheeler.

Especial Despatch to the Daily Kcnnebec Journal
Bath, August s. The republicans OF this city
gave expression to their enthusiastic endorsement
of the Cincinnati nominations, by assembling in
great numbers on Front street, this evening, and
raising large Hayes and Wheeler banner, being
suspended from two fifty foot spars, surmoun:ed
with topmasts, from which wave two American
of Hayes & Wheeler, with two large oil portraits
of each, and was raised amid the cheers CT the
vast audience.
Preceding the meeting there was grand d is
play Of fireworks and national salute and music
by the Rath Brass Band.
The meeting was called to order by the chair
man Of the Republican City Committee, with a
few remarks, who called Captain G. c. Goss to
preside. Mr.. Goss is one of our veteran ship
builders, whose politics are as reliable as the many
ships which he has constructed and which have
given his name high standing in all the COM
mcrcial ports of the country. He addressed the
meeting in most happy and eloquent manner,
and then introduced Hon. Thomas b. Reed, can
ddatc for Congress from the first district Of this
State, who held the audience by his impassoned
eloquence and logic. Mr.. Reeds mastery effort
Will tend to the feelings of the to still
more vigorous efforts in behalf of good govern
ment, civil service reform and hard money.
Mr.. Reed in most eloquent manner urged the
people to adhere to the party which saved the
nation, and which will give full protection to all
Of its citizens, in all of their rights.
The chairman then introduced Charles II. Frost,
Esq, who was most enthusiastically received by
the people. Mr.. Frost has ever occupied high
standing in the democratic party of the State,
but declines to support Tilden and Hendricks, be-
lievng that their success would be disastrous to
the best interests of the country.
Mr.. Frost spoke at some length upon the import
ant questions of resumption, civil service reform
and temperance reform to the entire satisfaction
of all and promises to speak more at length before
the close of our State campaign.
The meeting closed with another grand display
of fireworks, music and cheers for Hayes and
Wheeler and success.
The meeting was grand success and shows
conclusvely that the republicans Of Bath are full
ly aroused to their duty in this important presi
dental campnign.
