DISTRICT CONVENTION.

The Second District Congressional Con-
yention called together q large number OF
stalwart Republicans of Maine. The eve
ming before the convention met, saw Lew
iston and Auburn filed with earnest men
from the several counties, and Thursday
morning found the numbers greatly in-
creased.
Wednesday evening the Oxford Delega-
ton met in Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation Hall, and after general consulta-
ton upon the situation. appointed as com
mittee to see that the County was fully
represented in the convention, and adj
iourned until the next morning. Thurs
day morning the roll of delegates was
called, and the missing delegations were
supplied, according to the usual custom,
with residents of oxford County. The
committee to an delegations consisted OF

nominee OF the convention was greeted
with great applause.
Hon. Euoch Foster, and J. 7. Swasey,
moved the nomination be unanimous and
Il was so voted.
Senator Frye was Immediately called
for and made a brief address, thanking the
District for having SO often honored him
and couuselling harmony, and unity of ac-
ton during the coming canvass.
Ex-Goy. Dingley was then introduced.
aud made good speech thanking the con-
yention for his nomination and pledgng
his support 70 the best traditions and
principles OF his party.
Mr. DIngley was treated very Discount
eously by delegates, while speaking, many
leaving the hall amid great confusion. II
is true. that many had been waiting for
their dinner till nearly O'Clock and that
trains were about TO leave, but they should
have had manhood and self control
enough to have kept their seats, until the
speaker was through. As il was they did not
"act half decent" We do not think any
dlsrespect was intended, but such thought
lessness should not be passed over with
out rebuke.
The following resolutions were adopted.

To the Editor of the RECORD.
We regret the loss of Superintend-
ent Alex. Bowie. of the Canon City
Coal Co., who has resigned and ac-
cepted the position rendered him by
President W. b. Strong, as superin-
tendent in charge of San Pedro Coal
& Coke Co. which is under control of
the same A., T. & S. +. r. Il. These
mines he has the important duty of
opening, are about two hundred miles
northerly from Deming, and are to
furnish the southern portion of the
New Mexico &. Pacific line, their
Sonora road to Guaymas, and the
Southern Pacific road which now re-
ceives its entire supply from San Fran
cisco. The working will be on much
larger scale than mining in the Canon
field for some time to come.
A free "P. r." exhibition was given
here last week. One of the bosses
in the main shaft advised the dis
charge of workman, which caused
two fights, and the boss being about
to leave,-having quit work result
cd in three times and out contest to
settle the i'll feelings existing between
them. Several rounds were fought
under prize ring regulations, but fin
duy Resulted IN q drawn Dattle, ana
shaking of hands, the parties sepera-
ted as friends. after being both badly
battered up. Bad as such work is,
how much more sensible than the
use of fire arms to settle every little
dispute. Men that carry guns slung
to them in this law-abiding, peaceful
country, should be set down as cow
ards at once, who have not pluck to
stand up to square work. We are
advocates of the ''P. r." way if bad
blood must flow, and propose the dis
tribution of tracts on moral courage
among revolver packers.
The coal vein struck in the main
shaft is forty inches thick, and very
fine quality. The workings to the
south and east are expected to show
increase in thickness every rod the
entries are run. Shaft No. 2 has a
plump four foot vein. and is turning
out quite little load of coal daily.
The G. G. l. Co. slopes are being put
in first-class working shape, and soon
the Oak Creek working of the Canon
City coal seam, will yield sufficient
supply for once to meet the full de-
mand for this excellent fuel. The
people of Fremont county will please
take notice that the monthly pay rolls
OF these coal companies is furnishing
and always will supply the bulk of
the cash in circulation among them.

The utes Have Gone.

From the Colorado Springs Gazette.
Judge T. A. McMorris, one of the
members of the Ute Indian commits
sion, came up from Los Pinos yester-
day morning, and in conversation
with Gazette reporter gave some
facts concerning the removal of the
Utes TO their new reservation in
Utah. Many of the Colorado papers
have predicted that the Utes would
not leave their Colorado reservation
without causing some trouble, and
even within the past few days articles
have been published stating that the
Indians would remove their squaws
and effects to Utah and then return
10 fight. Mr.. McMorris says that no
feeling of this kind existed when the
Utes left the reservation. He person.
ally had the supervision of their re-
moval, the Indians refused to move
on at Commissioner McMorris' re-
quest. General Mackenzie was in
formed of this fact and he at ohce
called the Indians together for con-
sultation.
AT first they were inclined to be
slightly obstinate but the general
gave them to understand that they
must go and at the conclusion of the
conference said that they could have
until the next day to decide. The
following morning the Indians were
all drawn up in line with squaws,
cattle, goats and all other effects
ready to march. Neither by word or
action did they indicate opposition or
fight. On the contrary they moved
off peaceably and quietly. They had
evidently come 10 the conclusion
that it was useless for them to refuse
TO co.
BY way of illustration Judge Nc
Morris related to the reporter bit of
conversation that passed between
him and one of the warriors shortly
before they left the reservation.
Speaking about fighting, asked
one of the Indians what he thought
about his tribe fighting. In reply he
said "Indian no fight; ten Indians
killed. no more Indians come; ten
soldiers killed, many hundred more
soldiers ccmc." This impression
seemed to prevail generally among
the members of the tribe. In all
about 145O Indians left, including
sqnaws, children and all. OF this
number only about $50 men were able
10 go to war.
With them the Indians took $4,000
head Of stock, consisting of sheep,
horses, goats and cattle. They are
perfectly familiar with the country,
ard will be allowed to choose their

own route in going to Utah. AS the
trails are in many places very mar
row, the Indians eau NOT. keep well
together but will be compelled to
stretch out over twenty-five or thirty
miles ofcountry. General Mackenzie,
with body of troops will follow in
the rear of the Indians and see that
they reach their new home in safety.
No sooner had the Indians left the
reservation than the prospectors
commenced to rush in and locate
claims. Judge McMorris sold all the
agency bulldogs and effects, and has
virtually closed up the work that he
was sent there to perform. He says
that the impression seems to have
gained circulation that the commits
sioners have, in selecting the new
reservation, chosen worthless land.
This, he says, is mistake, for no
finer agricultural land exists in either
Utah or Colorado than that in the
valley of the Green and White rivers
where the new reservation is located.
OF this land there is between 250.0 900
and 100000 acres and while the land
Immediately surrounding the valley
is not as valuable for agricultural
purposes it is excellent grazing ground
it being covered with the salt weed
which is said to be very nutritious,
especially in winter. The other
members of the commission are in
Utah looking after the construction
of agency buildings.d
