The point attempted to be made by the
Republicans that the Democrats voted for
the bill authorizing the employment of
troops at the polls was very effectually dis
posed of by the Democratic members on
Saturday. They all alleged that they voted
for the measure simply because it was the
best that could be passed at the time. If the
fact that they chose the least of two evils is
subject for INSTRUMENTATION, then they are
worthy of it.

Mr.. Webb McKusick has concluded to with
draw from the race for city treasurer, and
leave the field to the live nominees, F. Joy
and M. M. Clark.
Mr.. Henry Martins, formerly in the employ
of J. Stein, jeweler, has returned to this city,
and is now in the employ of Joe Faenhauser.
A large increase in Mr.. Faenhauser's business
made this addition to his force necessary.
Although the presence of tramps in the sub
urbs has been reported several times, num-
Der of quiet raids by the police have proved
intellectual in securing them. If they are
caught, however, they will receive heavy dose
of municipal court justice.
At a late hour the other night couple of fell
lows attempted to enter T. Kitty's store, but q
couple of belated individuals happening along
that way frightened them off before they sue
ceeded in effecting an entrance. On examina-
ton, portion of the putty around one of the
panes of glass was found removed. The putty
being fresh, it was undoubtedly their intention
to remove one of the panes and thus effect an
entrance. The exposed position of the store
leaves it liable to be entered without detec-
ton.

to select a mayor and board of aldermen to-

light of newspaper comment and personal

The Democratic convention held at the court
house yesterday came to order at 9:15 A. M.
with G. J. Butler in the chair and ]. N. Castle
acting as secretary.
A motion made to nominate E. s. Brown for
mayor was unanimously carried, there not be-
ing dissenting voice. Mr., Brown was absent
from the city on business and was nominated
without his knowledge. He was expected home
last evening and if he accepts the nomination
will make a strong fight. He is undoubtedly
the strongest man in the party for successful
run.
For treasurer Matt. Clark was nominated
without dissent. Mr.. Clark has always been a
staunch Democrat and 1abored zealously for
the interests of his party. By virtue of his
past services he should command the vote of
every Democrat, and as he has hosts of Repub.
hcan friends he will make an interesting fight

Completion of A Great Work.

An epoch in the experience of many low
ers of good books will be marked by the
completion of the new Acme edition of
Chambers Cyclopedia Of English Literature.
The announcement of a work of such super
ior excellence, in form and style so conven-
lent and becoming, prices so nominal was
more than n surprise to the reading public,
and many questioned the possibility of its
publication, except at great loss of money.
The publishers evidently knew their
ground. They have not only fulfilled their
promise to the public, but by accomplishing
a work so extraordinary, have attracted the
attention of almost the entire reading com
munitY to their various literary enterprises,
and have secured for this work a sale beyond
precedent in the history of bookselling.
1t is peculiarly a work worthy of univer-
sal circulation. 1t is not only collection Of
rare literary interest, beauty, and merit, a
concentration OF the best pro ductions Of
English and American intellect, from earli-
est to recent times, but is also, in a large
degree, key and index to all other good
books n the iaAguage, enabling one to see
and judge for himself which are best worth
his reading.
Now that the work is completed, the pub
fishers limit the number of styles in which
il is made to those which have proved the

"A Washington dispatch Of the 2sth

resignation of The English mission had been
forwarded by mail. As soon as the news

resignation had been received, there is said
u have been a! once a commoton among
the politicians who are about the capital at

appeared to be particularly interested, and
oil take it for granted that Pennsylvania
will be appointed to fill the vacancy. The
name most prominently mentioned in con-
hcction with the succession is that of Hon.
Wayne McYeagh. 1t is intimated that the
President has for some time been desirous
of offering Mr.. McVcagh some desirable
place, and that he will now certainly offer
him the English mission. A few are also
inclined to the belief that it may be tender
