THE MINER.

political belief he processes to entertain. but
which, did he honestly and faithfully enter
tain it, would easily overcome anything so
ignoble as the feeling of personal prejudice,
or prejudice OF any kind.
The delegateship is a politically represent
alive office. In voting for delegate the ele-
ment of personality should be left altogether
out of the question, except in the case where
we happen to know that the nominee is per-
sonally dishonest or d~ishonorable. Of any
such charge in the case of Major Maginnis
there is happily not even a shade of suspicion,
so there is no reason whatever why anyone
deserving the name of democrat should not
in the opening campaign yield a hearty sup
port to his party's nominee. If it be true
that the "evil men do lives after them,' it is
equally true that the consequence of a vote
foolishly thrown away in spite, may long out
live the day when that foolish spite will have
been replaced by calm reason. If any absurd
personal feeling in the present campaign
should lead to the incubus of a republican
representation of our fair young territory the
humiliation of such a result will live to
plague us long after the per ,onal feelings in
winch it arose will have disappeared in the
shadows of oblivion.

WORCESTER, MASS, Sept.-The Prohibi-
tionists met in State convention to-day. Over
200 delegates were present, half of VII ON
were women. L. j. Lathrop, chairman of
the state central committee, IN calling the
convention to order, predicted the defeat of
the Republican party in the Presidential con-
test. The sentiment was received with great
applause. Rev. A. \. Miner was elected per
manent president.
In addresses condemning the records and
policy Of both leading parties, a declaration
was made in favor Of an Independent third
party on local, State and national questions.
a resolution declaring that no Prohibitions
list could support Garfield was referred With
out debate.
AZ two towns were represented by l2l del.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
Ben. Butler and His Real Estate-How H. Furnished
a Government Ship With "Ballast'-Notes on
the Campaign-The South to be Abandoned but
no Effort Spared to Garry Indiana.

The latest full convert to democracy, as
shown in Saturday nights dispatches, is Gen
eral Benjamin F. Butler. The General is a
man of great ability, of vast information, of
a certain sort of popularity among the people,
and with a record that dom suit any party.
There are many democrats who will rejoice
IN and many who will regret his return to the
party h. left twenty years ago, and in the
like way republicans will be divided IN feel
ing as to his loss. | mention the CASE princi-
pally because the General is better known
here than elsewhere-better, perhaps, than
III Massachusetts. lie has a magnificent resi-
dence here, built of granite from his eastern
q%uarries. Il good story is told of the manner
III which this stone was brought here. A
United States vessel had been ordered here
from a port within easy reach of the quarries
owned by the General. lie kindly offered to
furnish ballast, and did furnish it in the
shape of the material of which his palace
here is built. This palace is really three
houses in a row, one Of which Senator Jones
has long occupied, the government rents an
other-perhaps because of the friendly act of
the General in supplying ballast-and the
third is the Generals residence when here
1t is said that the two rented houses bring in
enough every three years to pay for the whole
structure.
1t seems that Senator Conkl.ing has author
lied "a member of the National Repub)ican
committee to state he will make foursneeches
III Indiana and three in Ohio. Gen. Grant
1t IS said, will preside at the first meeting in

IL Is now gwen out authoritatively that the

that at the recent republican conference i,
New York a contrary decision was an,
nounced. Mr.. Blaine, after the election ir

ANOTHER COILIERY EXPLOS ION IN
ENGLAND.
Many Lives Supposed to be Lost.

LONDON, Sept. SAN explosion occurred
this morning at the Seaham colliery, near
Durham. Both shafts are blocked, although
half a mile apart. Between 250 and 800 men
are in the pit, and it is known that some are
alive.
CHICAGO, Sept. s.-The Ne,ps' London
dispatch says: A terrible colllery explosion
occurred at 2 o'clock this morning at Seaham
pit, in Durham county, five miles south of
Sunderland. At the time of the explosion
there were ESQ men in the pit, and from that
time up to IL o'clock all efforts to reach them
were unsuccessful. Communication has,
however, since been opened with a group of
IS men who are safe.
Great excitement prevails in tn neighbor-
hood, and the wives and families of the i'm
prisoned and slaughtered miners surround
the mouth of the pit with loud cries and
lamentations
LONDON. Sept. San explosion in the
Seaman colliery occurred at 2:SO this morn
ing. MI. Stratton, resident viewer, was soon
On the spot, when it was found that all three
shafts of the mine were blocked, the cages
being fastened in them. Stratton descended
to the main seam with a rope around his
body, where he heard . some men talking
about 20 as near as he could estimate, who
are considered safe. There is no reason as
yet to believe that the pit is on fire, but it is
feared that the bulk of the men have been
killed. The number in the pit does not ex-
coed $50.

CAPACITY as an assurance of what his incum-
bency will be If elected.
In Jas. b. McMaster, for Assessor, we have
certainly as strong a name as IS presented on
the ticket, and this, is partly because Mr..
McMaster took in such good part his exas-
p%erating defeat of two years ago. Let this be
a lesson to defeated candidates. Mr.. McMas-
ter will be elected and will make a good As
SCISSOR.
In Thos. II. Irvine, for Treasurer, and Jas.
S. McAndrews for Clerk & Recorder, We have
names which are a guarantee of gentlemanly
courtesy, of sterling integrity, and strict pune
tuality in matters of official duty-the very
highest qualifications for the offices for whose
incumbency both gentlemen are otherwise
we'll fitted.
For Probate Judge Mr.. Caleb E. Irvine is
fitted by the experience of a previous term IN
the same office, and by his career as Justice
of the Peace, which has insured him the nee
essary familiarity with legal methods.
c. X. Hardenbrook, a professional teacher
of unusual reIit is so we'll fitted for the post
of Superintendent of Public Instruction that
commentator on the part of the press is al
together uncalled tor. His best
datlon is the estimation in which he is held
by the people among whom he has lived and
labored for years past.
In its entirity, or in particulars, the ticket
is a good one. The best thing we can do is
to give it a hearty and generous support, and
see that every man whose name appears upon
