The venerable Thurlow Weed having
been asked concerning President Arthur
and the New York Republican State Con-
ventiou said II know that no man has
been more anxious-and so far as was
proper he has SO expressed his views
than General Arthur for the harmonious
action of this Convention. He hopes that
no personal ambition will be permitted to
to disturb its deliberations. The Presi-
dent did not come here for any political
purpose whatever. nor has he in any way
interfered or attempted. to interfere with
the action of the committee further than
to advise both factions to harmonize. He
is not, as is generally understood, the
guest OF Senator Jones at Washington.

made for him to take possession of the

The people OF the 10Th congressional
district of Ohio. whom the late President
served so long and so faithfully in Con-
gress are very much dissatisfied at the Sc
lection Of Cleveland as the place OF burial
for the dead statesman. The friends,
neighbors and constituents Of the late
President insist that his remains
should lie at Mentor. An attempt
was made to persuade Mrs. Garfield
to have the remains removed. but
she has settled the question in favor OF
leaving them where they are. She be-
lieves it was her husbands wish to be
buried in Lake View cemetery. and this
belief Is sufficient in her mind to deter.
mine the matter. She has informed a
gentleman who visited her in relation to
this subject that the question Is no longer
open and will not be opened.

had examined the information filed in the
star route cases, and fixed bail at $500 in
the cases of Brady and Brown, and $4,000 in
the cases ofTurner and French. A short,
but important discussion ensued between
VIM. A Cook, Assistant District Attorney,
and Enoch Dotton. for the defence, on hav-
ing other motives submitted besides that to
squash the information. but that he would
formally all that motion tomorrow. 1t was
agreed that before any motion should be
argued, two days notice should be given to
the opposite counsel. The bondsmen then
justified except s. p. Brown, who will give
bail this afternoon.

If You suffer from general debility, brought
on by too close application to business and
excessive brainwork; or from increasing
prostration and sinking spells, that even
rest or removal of the cause will not relieve,
make haste to do as did reverend friend of
ours. He secured from his druggist bottle
of Browns Iron Bitters, having heard Of its
merit from physician, who told him not to
take any other Bitters or Tonic, for with the
exception of Browns Iron Bitters, they all
contained alcohol, and it failed to give his
patients lasting relief; nor should he take
any other preparation of Iron, for with the
exception of Browns Iron Bitter, they all
blackened the teeth, and often gave headache,
which Browns Iron Bitters never did, but in
fact cured headache. The effect was most
satisfactory; he immediately realized wonder
full results. His old energy returned, his
natural force came back, and he felt himself
altogether new man, full of health, strength
and vigor, and he has continued to remain
so ever since. Now he recommends Browns
Iron Bittters to all his friends, which we I'M
hssitatingly do to all our readers.-Gio6e.

It is probable that the new senators
from New York and Rhode Island will be
sworn In and take their seats in the Sen
ate before the election Of President pro
tempore. There are many sound reasons
why they should take their seats and par
ticipate in the election and none why they
should not There are also strong prece-
dents established by democratic authority
in favor of such n course.

The New York republican State con-
vention held yesterday was a very har-
monious. well behaved body. Senator
Miller was elected President by vote of
298 10 100. This was the test vote be-
tween the Conkling and anti-Conkling
men, and demonstrated that the latter
were largely in the majority. A warn,
and unanimous endorsement was given to
President Arthur. and harmony reigned
throughout the entire proceedings. The
result augurs that the republicans will
carry the State in the election.

Passing down Main Street we noticed the
progress made on JOHNSON, ALLEN & Co.'s
new store, which, when completed, will be
the finest store building north OF Crookston,
having all the modern Improvements and
conveniences for a general stock. They have
taken great pains to secure first class material
and help. We understand that their front is
to be double plate French glass, and other
Windows two lighted, all being on pulleys.
Mr.. Luther Furs has taken the contract to do
the painting which is sufficient guarantee as
to finish. Col. ALLEN, who has the general
supervision of the entire WORK, and looks
closely after all the details, tells us that they
not only intend to have a bran-fred new store,
but they intend to put in an entire new and
select stock of goods which will be purchased
in Chicago at the opening Of Spring trade,
and in order to do SO he says they will be
compelled to work off their present stock at
low: prices. All those wishing bargains in
their line will do well to call early and often
as they are bound to sell. He also tells us
that their books will be closed after Jan. 1st,
and that all goods sold after that date, must
be sold for cash. Call on them and examine
prices. The Col. also informs US that he in
