SENATOR JONES, POSITION.

For Garfield and the Party all tho Time.
sAs Francisco, September 2s.-The But-
letia this afternoon published an interview
with Senator John ]. Jones, OF Nevada,
relative to q letter which the New York
World, Washington correspondent alleges
to have been received by an intimate
friend Of Jones, OF Nevada, in which he
announces his determination 10 discon-
meet himself from any participation in the
conduct OF the Republican party, aud to
support Col. Fair for the Senate as against
Sharon.
Senator Jones emphatically denies hav-
ing written such letter, and says further
he has not for many weeks written any
letter containing reference to political Of.
fairs. While entertaining preference for
Grant IS the nominee OF the party, yet,
when the Chicago Convention selected
Garfield, the latter became his choice,
and he regards him as eminently fitted for
the position. He holds that In no elec.

REi.LAIRE.

The Democrats Of Bsllaire expect to
have the political meeting Of the campaign
Friday, with Hon. s. ]. Randall as the az
traction. The whole country around Is
expected to send their delegations as they
did for Blaine last year.
The Bsllaire street cars will run till II
o'clock or later, II necessary, both Friday
and Saturday evening, TO accommodate
those who may wish to return by that
route.
The ladies will present flag to the
Junior Garfield Marching Club.
Two boys were employed, under instruc-
ton from the Democratic State Central
Committee, to put the number $40 on
everything in town, and doors, walls aud
fences were covered with chalk
marks that had to be scrubbed off in some
cases. Some who have been annoyed by
this brilliant device have declared that
they have given up all idea aoiscratching the
straight Republican ticket. Perhaps they
ought not to allow themselves TO feel an
noyed at such ridiculous thing, but they
are anyhow, and the device has proved
boomerang.

Atno time since the war has the Re
Dublicau party in this county been more
thoroughly united or enthusiastic. Every
body seems to be doing his duty, and
everybody seems willing to do even more
than his duty. Old and young are full ol
srdent devotion to the cause, and they
manifest iton all occasions. The good work
goes steadily forward in the city and
country, and organization and labor are
the order Of the day. We congratulate
The party on its splendid trim. Let us
keep the ball moving.
At no previous time have our laboripg
population shown more disposition to
"wOrk all day and sing ali night"
tnone Of the campaign songs expresses ~
for the success of the ticket. They have
read more in this canvass than in any
previous campaign within our recollec'
ton, and tue issues at stake have made q
deep impression on their minds, as well
they may. All signs point to the largest
Republican vote ever cast in the county,
Therefore we say, be OF good cheer and
push on the column. E

New YoRK, September sO.-over 81 900
barrels Of apples have been shipped from
this city to European points during the
last week, and from all ports Of this
country outside Of NewYork 20, 900 barrels
were sent this week. Theshipments from
New York will amount to about SO, 900 bar
rels, and other ports will also show in
creased shipments. Large shipments Of
New York State apples are being made in
European vessels from Montreal, and this
week several cargoes Of apples have been
sent from Charlotte, a port on the lake near
Rochester, to Montreal for shipment. It
Is said the cause for the DETECTION OF trade
to Montreal was the freight charges from
that city of two shillings sixpense per bar
rel, while from here they are four shillinRs.
How far Montreal would get New York's
trade remains TO be seen. Some OF the
steamship lines here are refusing to take
any more apples this week, owing to the
