A lively episode occurred this forenoon at the

These gentlemen met in the corridor of the
hotel, and Fsrwell began with violent assault
upon Gen. Logan and all his friends, saying it

meant by the expression of fighting it to the
bitter end" "Of course" said Mr.. Jones,

''If the Logan delegation of forty-two men
are seated in this convention, intend to fight
it and Gen. Grant at the polls"
Mr.. Jones replied that he had Mr.. Farwell
now just where he wanted him; whereupon Mr..
Farwell ran off.
Mr.. Farwell came back after he had consulted
some friends, and said: II want to be under
stood; mean that if the Logan delegation of
AZ are seated and Gen. Grant hasn't got more
than 20 majority, then 1 propose to bolt and
fight Gen. Grant az the polls"
"Then understand" said Mr.. Jones, ''if
Gen. Grant has 10 majority in the convention,
you II bolt; if he has 20 majority you'll bolt;
but it he has 81 majority, you'll support
him?"
"Well," said Mr.. Farwell, "rll reserve my

The Republican convention at Chicago
may not be a very safe place to be, after all.
The county clerk has received the following
letter revealing terrible socialistic conspi-
racy which, if carried out, may settle the
Presidential question for good:
CHICAGO May %, 1850-DEAR SIR: feel it
my duty to make you very important COM
munication regarding the safety of the dele
gates who are to meet at the Exposition build
ing at the national convention of the Republi-
can party. 1 am Republican, have son-in-law
who is an enraged aud fanatical socialist,
and, through some carelessness or neglect of
his it came to my knowledge that the social
istic party, or members of the same, have
made, or are making, preparations to virtually
blow up the Exposition building when the con-
vention is assembled therein. Feeling it nv
duty to give you notice of this, you will of
course, excuse me in emitting to give my name.
Respectfully, *.
If the big and little bosses of the Republi-
can party are to be thus ruthlessly slaugh-
tered, what will become of the country?
Gan it survive without them? But fore
warned is forearmed, and Phil. Sheridan
can probably be induced to send regiment
or two of troops to keep out of the building
all suspicious looking persons, such, for in
stance, as look as if they were enlisted on
behalf of Blaine or Sherman-or-or goody

The Effort of the State Board of Health to
Cope with the Disease
The State board of health were in session at
DIR. Hands office yesterday afternoon. The
members present were Drs. Hand, Gronewald,
Smith, Hewitt and Leonard.
The secretary reported personal visit to the
districts most afflicted with diphtheria and
gave distressing account of the fatality of the
disease, and of the ignorance and neglect
of the plainest rules of health. Very many
parents are worn out in the care of children
dead. dying and just coming down with the
disease. Alone the board cannot do much,
but if the medical men, clergymen, school
teachers. and the like, will unite with it in
the effort to stem the progress of the disorder,
it can be done.
There is no specific for diphtheria. The
means of prevention are simple and efficient if
intelligently used. The disease liz contagious;
that is, it goes from the sick to the well in the
air, in water, on clothing, and upon furniture,
bedding, etc.
the sick from the well. Do the
same for the nurse, or compel a change of
clothing. Permit no visiting of infected FAM
lilies or houses. Permit no public funerals.
Secure for all, sick or well. pure air, water and
sunlight. Keep persons, clothing bedding and
houses clean. This is easily understoOd,
easily done. and if done, will go
far to stamp out the disease.
The State board of health are in earnest in
their efforts and will leave nothing In their
power to stop the ravages of this dreaded dis
ease,
The secretary reported large number of
water analysis in the laboratory of the board,
the object Of which is to determine the rela-
ton of our domestic water supply to the
health and diseases of the population. Some
of the conclusions reached as to the water
supply are of great popular interest and will
when completed be published.

say assistance for the removal of freight. Plain
