The NOmIRecS.

The convention met last Saturday with
n full delegation frvm each district, and
mace the following nominations; fi'ater'
+. l.. Tarver; Representative, pr. H. H.
Applewhite; Sheriff, A. Q. Cox; Ireasur-
er, 8. p. McRec; Assessor, A. j. Martini;
Surveyor, Luther Blue; Coroner and Rang
or. w. III. Hartley. The above mentioned
gentlemen are all well known to the ci'i-
zens of this county, and nothing we coulu
saw would add anything to their populari-
ty. They are good men and will make
good officers. And while we feel 1t our
duty to support the nominees OF the con-
v~ention, we fee, that it is no less our duty
to state that there is dissatisfaction existing
with many persons in regard to the aroi-
trarv power exercised by that body. Some
| claim that the convention violated every
| principle of Democracy, and ignored the
theory upon which our government Is
based. Each Beat was represented by ten
delegates, regardless of population. Small
districts claimed an equal voice with large
districts in the convention, claiming be-
cause they were delegates they were entitled
to so many votes, thus ignoring the proper
ratio of representation, and one OF the
grand theories OF a Republican for:a OF gov
eminent.
Because a dist rict has so many delegates
that does not signify that each delegate Is
entitled to a vote. If that were true our
county could claim thirty votes in the APP
proachin g State Convention, for our coun
ty convention appointed thirty delegates
when it is known our county is only en-
titled to three votes in the State Conven-
ton. while the county of Warren has ter
votes. WHY this difference? Because
Warren county has a greater population
than Lincoln, and it would be absurd foi
Lincoln to claim an equal power IN the
convention with Warren.
In this government it is conceded tina
maiorities rule, and in a convention the
majority should be equally potent, by thu
proper ratio of representation. Some al
lece that the convention, in refusing tC
recognize this old landmark, %perpetrateC
an act not in harmony with the true spiri
of Democracy.

SociabIe at DR., DaHghtry'S.

There is Il Literary Socilble Society i'll
our city which meets every Saturday even
I ing, first at one residence and then at an
other. Last Saturday evening this society
convened at DR.. j. Il. Daughtry's, and by
virtue of all invitation, we put in an APP
pearance. Upon our arrival we found
quite a number Of charming young ladies
and a few young gentlemen, and the latter
looked as though they were ready to con-
graduate themselves upon such an auspi-
cious occasion for the enjoyment Of a
pleasant evening.
After the society was called to order by
Mr.. w. A. Henry, President, Miss Mamie
Bridges read an essay, the subject OF
which was ~"Forgotten." The composition
was good; the ideas embodied were splen-
did, and the essay was we'll read and high
ly appreciated. Miss Josie Warren recited
"Curfew Must Not Ring Tonight" Her
rendition of this piece was magical, and
apparently she exhibited the enthusiastic
spirit of the heroine who first gave utter
to the poetic words, "Curfew Must Not
Ring Tonight"
Miss Lizzie Cooper recited a beautiful
| piece entitled The Princes Feather" She
rendered it charmingly and pathetically,
and acquitted herself admirably.
The President then made the following
appointments for the next meeting: Els
sayist-Mr. Geo. Crosby; Recitations-
Miss Mary Storm, Miss Mollie D~aughtry,
Miss Jessie Warren. The society will meet
next Saturday evening at Mr.. Jesse War
ren's residence. The society then ad
journed.
Miss Josie Warren was the recipient of
a beautiful basket bouquet on the occasion
of her recitation, and this floral gift was
furnished by Mrs. DAughtry. The basket
was of an oblong form, and the flowers were
of the choicest selections and artlstically
arranged. We had some fine music, both
vocal and instrumental. There was one
song that has left a very serious impress
sion on a certain young man, for ever since
that pleasant evening he has often invol-
UNFAIRLY calculated, Meet Me, Darling
Josie. at the Gate" We were conversing
with the aforesaid young man last Sunday,
about what a pleasant time we all had at
DR.. Daughtry's. and in the midst of a SEN
tence he paused very abruptly, inclined
his head slightly, looked serious out of his
dreamy ewes, and Just as we were about to
enquire the cause of his strange action, he
muttered to himself: "Meet Me, Darling
Josie, at the Gate" Had 1t not been for
the serious expression that was depicted
on this gentleman's countenance at the
time, we would have enjoyed a good, hearty
laugh. We broke the silence, however,
by asking: odd that song make an i'm
preston upon your He responded by
saying: THAT is the prettie est song ever
heard, and it has been ringing in my ears
ever since" We told him he ought to
learn it, and he said he intended to do so.
When he does, we want to hear him sing
it.
The evening passed of exceedingly
pleasant, and all present appeared to have
enjoyed themselves very much. We con-
sidered that we were very fortunate in hav'
ing been present On that occasion, and hope
the society may live long and afford many
such evenings as the'one'to which we have
just referred.

PARENTAL ignorance and negligence
have doubtless much to do with the feeble
health of many children, the broken con-
atitntion, the life of suffering, and the pre-
mature decay and death Of many house
holds. The physical culture, heath and
strength of the child is the first and most
important object to be attained, and due
attention to this is the first and most I'M
p~eratiye Of parental duties. Spring and
summer are the hardest seasons on the
child, while teething, which produces ner-
vous wakefulness, collie and debility. We
would IN all earnestnesS recommend Dr.

SPANISH OUTRAGE.

Another American Vessel lnterfersd with
by the Spanlards of the Coast Of
Cuba.
Bos7oN, July ia letter has been
received at Provincelown from Captain
Taylor, of the whaling schooner Ris.
ing Sun, bearing report of another in
sui. to the American flag. On the 25th
Of May be was cruising of South Keys
Of Cuba, on the lookout for whales.
About 8 am. q school was sighted TO
leeward, Captain Taylor and his chief
mate, Mr.. Atkins, killed two small
whales and were pursuing others
when the boom Of a gun was heard.
Soon two more reports and two hiss
ing balls followed in rapid sue
cCssion. Capt. Taylor started for his
vessel, but was intercepted by the
enemy who proved TO be a Spaniard.
His own person was demanded as a
hostage until the Spanish gunboat
should make her appearance and ex-
anime her papers. He refused and
they demanded his chief mate
and were inexorable. In vain
he protested reminding them
OF the loss TO his vessel aud claiming
the validity OF his papers. Atkins was
taken and placed on board, the captain
being LETT alone 10 secure the whales as
best ne could, difficult task in heavy
sea. For 1--WE days the mate was detained
unit. Spanish gun-boat arrived and
declared the papers correct. This
detention a: this particular time in the
midst OF s:hool Of whales was a
serious loss TO the vessel, and is but
sequel 10 the outrage perpetraled on
the Risepah and her captain.

Ohio ought to be on the watch for a
real big man TO run on the Democratic
ticket for Governor next Fall. The

Democrats will carry the State by
twenty thousand majority, and the in.
dicatiOns are that tie Enquirer 10 cor
rect. The Republicans are not dwell
ing together in harmony, while the
Democrats are in fue feather, and
crowdIng their opponents on the silver
question. The Radicals are down on
Hayes, and the Conservative Republi-
cans would much prefer 10 vote with
the Democrats, to voting with those of
his party that are trying TO break down
the President. This huge State
is very close any way, and with the
present advantages it seems 10 US al
most certain thst the Democrats will
win b. 3 rousing majority. This be-
ing the case, the best man the OhiO
Democrats can find in Ohio ought TO
be nominated, for II is very safe TO pre-
dict that the next Democratic candidate
for President will be from the West.
The South is now watching the West
