ton shall have been nominated by the APP
preaching Illinois republican state conven
ton, a new state central committee Gone
member from each congressional district)
will have to be appointed. The time-hOn-
ored custom has been for the delegates In
the state convention from the counties
composing the several congressional dis
tricts to select their own members of the
state central committee This is the just,
fair and truly republican method of doing
it. We learn, however, that it is proposed
by certain gentlemen who set themselves
up as the managers of the republican
party of Illinois, to take this privilege of
appointment out of the hands of the del
egations from the congressional districts,
and delegate the power of appointing the
central committee to cut-and-dried gen
eral committee of the state convention, or
by some other hocus-pocus device con-
trive, if possible, to keep hold of the ina
chine" for service in special interest two
years hence, when the delegates to the ma
tional convention are to be appointed.
1t might as well be understood, first
as last, that the proposed attempt to
run the coming state convention in the in
terest of any clique or special conspiracy
will not be tolerated by the mass Of the re-
publican party of the state, who, remem-
bering the disreputable ways and me ans
resorted to in 1880 to dragoon and bull
doze the state convention, are notin tenn
per to allow either trickery or boss dicta
ton. The fairly chosen delegates in the
state convention from the counties com
posing the several congressional districts
must either be left, free and untrammeled,
to select their own district representatives
for membership in the new state. central
committee, or those mostly concerned must
prepare for trouble. The Journal, which
in this matter speaks for many as well as
for itself, sounds this note of warning thus
early, because it is earnestly DESTROYS of
peace and harmony in the republican par
ty of Illinois, and because it was aware
that any attempt at boss rule in the party's
council in the future will produce the very
opposite of peace and harmony. A word
to the wise ought to be sufficient.

Bridegrooms are recently becoming very
uncertain. Recently a Newark, n. J.,
young man, after he had ordered a mar
riage feast and invited $50 friends to come
to it, kept whole church full of people
and his promised bride waiting several
hours and then sent word to the minister
that he was sick and couldn't come. More
recently in Baltimore Mr.. Emault II. VIII
liams, affianced to Miss Lille Hazlett-
wedding set for June 14-suddenly left the
city and neglected to state where he had
gone or what he meant by going Will
hams' disappearance without explanation
is mystery that puzzles Baltimore social
circles. The queerest thing about it is
that he recently came into possession of a
legacy of $250.000, and Immediately made
over his fortune, by deed of trust, to his
father as perpetual trustee, and by the
terms of the deed the trustee was to pay
him $4,000 per annum. The wedding
preparations are still going on, but it is
very doubtful if the bridegroom will put
in an appearance on time. The parties
belong to Baltimore's best society.

SAFE In ANAMnSA.

| Sheriff Leonard and Constable Able re
turned yesterday from Anamosa, wher,
they went i'll company the criminal:
sentenced by Judge Hayes during the tern
of the district court, James Howard and
John MCGUIRE. Ellis was also taken III
and placed in charge of Warden Martin.
He was compelled to don the customary
| striped prison garb, and was much dis
appointed to learn that he would not be
allowed to work with the rest of the
prisoners during his stay there, but would
be confined in cell for the entire four
months
Sheriff Leonard gives a gratifying &C
count of the condition of the Anamosa
penitentlary. The management is all that
could be wished for, the buildings are
clean. and nothing is left undone to make
the institution credit to the state. Be
sides Ellis, 1873 male convicts are confined
there, and two female convicts are also
serving sentences. And the singular part
of the thing is, that no trouble is experience
ed with the males. They work in har-
mony, all managing to be agreeable, no
quarrels or fights occurring among them.
On the contrary, the two females cannot
agree if placed together. They will spat
and quarrel between themselves co such
an extent that it is necessary to separate
them; and confine them in different apart
ments.
The grounds surrounding the peniten-
tiary buildings, the property of the state,
comprise tract of forty acres of valuable
land. The great majority of the convicts
are now engaged in erecting massive
stone wall, at least thirty feet in height,
around the entire tract. The south wall is
now completed, and presents an imposing
barrier and impeachment destined to strike
terror into the hearts of any of the states
charges who may feel inclined to escape
In every respect, Sheriff Leonard states.
the Anamosa penitentiary is a model in
stitution, and when the contemplated i'm
provements are completed, it will be the
finest establishment of its character in the
country.

was decorated by his family and old com

visible here--no marble shaft, pointing
heavenward, tells the pilgrim to this sacred
spot of the massive greatness and grandeur
of the hero, the patriot, and the states
man, whose moldered form lies here. Yet
this is hallowed place, to which the eyes
and hearts of the American people turn
with love and reverence"
