in New York city last week. DR.. Bar.
nard Of Hartford, Miss Peabody of Bos-
ton, Mrs. Elizabeth Thompson, Prof Fe.
lix Adler and others interested in the
Froebel kindergarten system, were in
attendance. Addresses were made, pa.
pers read and discussions mad during the
three days the convention was in ses.

the children on rational and induCtive
principles, at the same time making the
work pleasant and delightful.

The Repository is Congressman McAln-
ley's home organ, and is Jealous in Ia
boring for the Msjor's nomination. But
in their zeal we fail to see the propriety,
not to say deceucy, in the Major organ
throwing dirt 80 profusely upon ex'Con-
gresham Woodwork, as if this gentle
man had not the same right to be can
didate for his party nomination as Mr.
Mckinley himself Has Woodwork no
rights entitled to common respect from
Mckinley and his friends?
-Upon what meat doth this
Our Cesar feed, that he hath grown so greatY
It is not our mix but such low bred
arrogance is not often seen between can
didstes of the same party. Besides, we
believe in all that becomes a gentleman,
and qualities for member of Congress,
Major Woodwork is the peer of "our
Young Napoleon" Neither gentleman
would suit us, but "fair play is jewel )"
and Sir Lucius 0'TrigVers advice to Bob
Acres, alter he had sent his challenge to
Beverly, is appropriate in ali such cases;
Now, Mr.. Acres, when you meet your
antagonist, let your courage be as keen'
but at the same time, as polished as your
sword.

LAST week in the U. S. Senate, Mr.. Ed.
munds of Vermont, delivered himself
against the Garfield amendment to the
election laws which had passed the
House, giving the appointing power of
deputy marshals at elections to United
States Circuit Courts, and requiring that
they be taken equally from among the
opposing political parties, Mr.. Ed.
munds did not believe in the Courts he
prefers the Republican powers that be-.
Mr.. Eaton of Connecticut, replied. and
showed that the Democratic party is the
party OF the Constitution, and made a
good point on the Vermont gentleman,
by alluding to his fault-fnding with the
bill, because 1t says that "said special
deputies shall be appointed in equal
numbers from the different political par.
ties" and that persons appointed shall
be of good moral character, and then
add 'ng: ~ don't wonder at it. Under
the laws of the Uuited States heretofore,
there have been appointed as special
deputy msTshals ind supervisors, keep
ers of houses Of prostitution and con-
viCts from state prisons, and l beg to say
to you, Mr. President, that the Demo
cratic members of the Senate intend to
put stop TO that class"

BILE.
Where the voting was undisturbed, it
shows l5O or more Democratic majority
in the city; and about fifty in the town
ship, outside of the city. This is not bad
on two-thirds vote. The result in city
and township shows fourteen Democrats
elected to SO zen Republicans. There is
nothing discouraging in all this. It only
shows that Democrats should attend to
their business little better.

col. GIBsoN FOR rILDEN.


In one of the ten district conventions
held in Alleg eny county week before
last, Col. Gibson was called out, and in
the course of his remarks said:
He vas quite surprised with himself
on account of the interest he was taking
in the present political excitement. He
was sure it was not because he wanted a
public office, as his desires never ran In
that direction have no end in view,
no axe to grind. What blessed man |
am. (Laughter.) The only public posi-
ton ever held was that of school di'
rector in a shabby town. l am an out and
out Tilden man, and that is why | take
such an interert politics. | have all
ways wanted to see man elected who
could pull the Democratic wagon out o
the mud, aud 1t lie bonnd to come ou
now. Never, since 1866, have seen
many warmed up hearts and earnest ia
ces among the Democrats of this county
as have to-day, There lisa significance
in it,"
In referring to Samuel j Tilden, Col.
Gibson said:
"tIe is no Office seeker-only a sharp.
nosed, thin faced. bachelor lawyer, but
is as keen as Damascus blade. 1t was
his acts for the public good that brought
him to notice, such as reducing the debt
of New York from $l7 600 ono to 81, 900
600. His letter of acceptance WAS the
greatest public document | ever saw in
my day, and l would sooner stump the
country for the devil than for that man
Hayes or any person like Tim. TiIden
is our choice"
In another convention Mr., Magee was
chosen delegate, and was called out, and
spoke as follows:
Il thank you Tor the col idenCe you
have reposed in me. | know you are all
interested in the success of the Demo
cratic party, and l believe the sentiment
of the county and the State is the same
as yours and mine-that Samuel j. I l..
den should receive the nomination for
President of the United States. AS a
delegate, my aim shal, be to represent
that sentiment. hope shall be able
to do that duty faithfully, but whatever
the ticket may be, it should receive the
support of the entire Democracy Of the
country; and while we all have our per
sonal preferences, they must give way 10
the united sentiments of the party, and
althoug we are all Tilden men, we must
respect the opinion of the party"
The speech was received with vocifer'
GUS cheers.

TIE leaders and manipulators OF the
temperance organization in Canton en-
tered the political field for the late elec'
ton ahead of either of the old parties,
and almo't any set Of hoodlums could
have lone the business equally we'll, at
least. We learn the citizens they noml'
mated were not consulted at all; and
when those worthy citizens came out n
cards declining the honOrs, these same
temperance leaders aid no heed what
ever to these destinations, but printed
their ticket as originally made up. Now
it strikes MS, if these leaders pay no
more regard TO the decencies aud pro.
prieties of life, as a rule, than this, they
are totally unfit and unworthy to occupy
a prominent position in any decent or
gan zltion. There are men in public
business who do not wish their names
pAraded in this way, and these gentle,
men surely haye some rights in this re-
gard. Are these temperance gentlemen
unwilling to pay any heed whatever to
these personal rights? Isthis their tenn
perance and sobriety? Is this not be-
ing intempera'e, not to say indecent in
their temperance Does this not show
fanatical disregard of the personal
rights OF others? Common sense and
common deCency do not seem to have
been the governing rules 1t is no won
der that some gentlemen feel iudi- = nant
at the use of their names. A good cause
saould have different men for leaders
and guides. They may run it amuCk,
but hardly to establish success.

LOCAL option has been defeated once,
but the Repository still believes this As.

are clearly for it, and this Assembly has
another session.-RepOsitOry.
"AnOther session. This is a half prom
ise to the temperance people. Last fall,
during the Foster campaign, the Repub.
liCan papers were profuse in their prom.
ises, and equally ready with abuse Of
the previous Democratic Legislature for
refusing to enact local option. 1t is only
little more of the fraud, deception

Mr.. E, D. ELY, who was nominated on
the temperance ticket for Council in the
second ward, also carded through the
Rep. last Friday, declining, as he is a
Republican, and "the Republican party
is the party of temperance" This comes
with great force when the Republican
party in the House at Columbus had
just defeated local option. Yet it is the
great temperance party. Isit not rather
the party Of the father of lies E?

KALLocH and Kearney were both laid
ont at the late election in San Francisco.
This will settle these gentlemen, whose
aim seemed to be anarchy and nothing

evidence that freedom of speech may be
safely tolerated while reason is left free
to act and operate.

The local option temperance (profss.
