Delegates began arriving nearly waek pre-
vous, the presidential boom managers being
first on the ground to catch the UNCERTAIN del
egates from the South and help them to form
their opinions by touching them with gold.
The bargain and sale effected by the Blaine

The New York Times and Tribune have
openly admitted it, and have been severe in
their denunciation of such methods Arthur
cannot connt upon more than seventy-fve
honest yates in the convention, and Blaine's
strength has been Increased materially by pur-
chase The convention opened with a con-
test, The Blaine men put up Powell Clayton,
ex-carpet-bag Senator from Kansas, for tenn.
porary chaiFmeg, md the Blaine opposition
supported negro ex-CoHgressman, Lynch,
from Mississippi. Lynch was chosen by forty
four majority, and was escorted to the chair.
After the appointment of committees the con-
yeution adjourned. The second day perma-
nent organization vas effected by the selection
of Gen. John b. Henderson, Of Missouri, as
chairman, and the other usual officers. The
third day Witnessed the completion of details,
the adoption of a platform end the putting IN
nomination of the Various aspiFaHts for Pres
ident. The convention remained in Session
until nearly Z CLOCK FFiHd} HlQrpiuSi tlF
Blaine men opposing adjournment sooner, us
they desired to come to vote. Over 100

PLOT OF THE OPERA.
The Opera opens with chorus of Grecians
going to worship at the Temple of Venus at
dawn-Ganymede declines to follow them,
preferring to sleep. His master, Pygmalion,
who has made beautiful statue of his ideal
Galatea, goes to the temple; in his absence
Midas, a rich money lending art patron, calls,
and for a bride is shown the beautiful statue |.
meanwhile Pygmalion returns and drives
Midas out. to his great disgust. In answer to
Pygmalion's prayer Venus gives life to the
statue, and Galatea falls in love with her
sculptor, the first man she sees. She soon
after sees Ganymede, however, and prefers
him on account of his youth and beauty
Midas comes again, finds Galatea alive, and
woos her with presents and riches, which she
accepts, while she rejects the giver. Pygma-
lion discovers her intrigues with Midas and
finally with Ganymede, and in his despair
prays Venus to turn Galatea back to slone
She again becomes statue, and is then sold
by Pygmalian to Midas.

THE ClsY TAN,

Why Levy of14U cents is Necessary.
To the Editor of the Free Press and Times:
Your comments in Wednesday mornings
issue relating to the proposed tax for this
year might be misleading. 1t is true that
the Board of Aldermen have laid a tax OF
14O cents-but only 100 cents is required OF
laid TO meet the current expenses of this
year. The debt incurred by last wears
Board is $50, 445. The grand list for 1884
is S72, 701. The deductions annually made
by reason of abatement of taxes, amounts to
about $500. From this grand list of S72.
791, suppose we allow in reduction by abate.
ments, the sum Of S1791, which figures the
City Treasurer thinks the attachments for
this year will reach, and we have an availa-
BILE grand list of 81, 900.
Now it takes SO cents on the dollar of this
amount 10 provide for last years debt.
The school Commissioners ask this wear
for $500 more than they had last year. To
provide for this increase of the expenses of
the school department takes Four cents on
the dollar.
1t would appear, therefore, that the
tax levied for the current expenses of the
city for the year 1884 allowing for the
school department the same dues as they had
last year-is only 100 cents on the dollar.
Now, the present Board of Aldermen are
not responsible for last years debt indeed
had it not been for the vigilance and excr
ton of three members of the present board.
last years debt would have been nearly
doubled.
Nor is the present board responsible for
the $4,000 increase asked by the School
Commissioners. This increase of $4,000 and
the debt of last year calls for 40 cents on the
dolar-now the city cannot take the position
of repudlator OF its debt-and if this extra
OF Az cents seems burdensome to taxpayers,
they will please remember how and why it is
upon US and who are responsible for it, and
then place the responsibility for it where it
belongs.
l may add that am glad to see that the
FREE PRESS takes this year an economical
stand, and l have only to regret that such
advice was not given last year while thi.
Indebtedness was being rolled up.
Yours very truly,
III. S. PECK

BANGOR, Ne, June 18.-Messrs. Blaine
an | Logan with Senator Hale passed through
this city tonight on their return from. Ellis

Gen. Logan was introduced and received

tainly as far as am personally concerned

paid by the citizens of this very beautiful
town in their greeting to-day to your honored
candidate" Senator Logan spoke at length
andiconcuded; 81 will say, and mark me WE'LL
that blythe Ides of November the patriotism
of the people will be thoroughly
aroused Old camp6res that have been
slumbering will be rekindled and burn
ing brightly upon every hill and lighting

For Secretary Of State, after lively but
| 60 )d.natured contest aud by vote the close
ne IS of which showed how evenly divided was
the convention in its preferences, Dr..
Nichols was defeated NY his young
Icompetltor and lcns~time deputy Mr.. Porter.
This result was due of course to DIR.
Nichols's ill-jud ged re-entrance into the field
after his formal withdrawal We have hith-
erto borne full testimony to his faithful,
capable and III everyday satisfactory con-
duct OF his Office, and need not repeat it in
other than general terms. In his retirement
the State loses most excellent officer. Mr.
Porter is lawyer of excellent standing
| He has served long apprenticeship in the
Office as deputy and is thoroughly familiar
with its duties and has the capacity and the
will TO perform them with entire acceptable
ity. He is, moreover, a bright, genial and
popular young man, and the reople will find
that they have confded their trust to good
hands
Mr. Dubois and Mr. Powell were rcnominat-
ed for Treasurer and Auditor respectively
without dissenting voice-a handsome and
well deserved compliment to faithful, expert
enced and competent officials. For Prcsi-
dental Electors, the State convention named
Mr. Hatch of this city and Mr., Harlow of
Windsor aud the District convention
named Mr.. Childs of ST. Adams. These
gentlemen are well known through the State
and will be recognized as men who may be
depended upon for the proper fulflmcnt of
the duties of their responsible Office.
The platform is brief but pointed. The
resolutions reaffirm the devotion of Yer
mont Republicans to the principles of the
party; endorse the Chicago platform and
''pledgc our earnest support to the nominees
OF that conventions" favor the continuance
in this State of the Republican policy of
economy in expenditures and the reduction
Of taxation favor the elevation of the stan
dard of education aud the increase
Of our educational facilities; and
congratulate the party of the State
on the harmony of the convention and the
excellence of the ticket We do not see
why this platform is not broad enough for
all Republicans TO stand upon.
The convention, VIC repeat did well. The
ticket commands the respect and willreceive
the cordial support of the united party, and
ii remains for the Republicans o: Vermont
to show the country by their votes that the
Green Mountain State does not faltcr in her
allegiance to the principles of the grand old
party she has so often led to victory.

THE STATE CONVENTION.

The State convention did just about wba,
was expected Of it, 1t did well, too. anf
the ticket it nominated is clean, able and
popular, and one for which every Republi.
can can work and vote. 1t fully deserves
the splendid majority which it will receive
next September. The nomination of Col
flpgree Tor Governor was a foregone con.
clusion and he was nominated without n
dissenting voice. Col. Pingree was one of
Nermont's best and bravest soldiers, in the
war. He led the first assault made by tbe
Army OF the Potomac on an entrcnched
work, at Lees Mills, where he led battal.
ion OF the Third Vermont across the War,
wick river and stormed and took line of
earthworks, at cost to himself of two severe
wounds and to lis command of over fifty per
cent in killed and wounded. lie was
reported dead, but lived to serve out his
full term and to come home with the rank Of
Lieutenant-Colonel and the respect of every
soldier OF the Old Brigade. Since the wal
he has been leading lawyer of Windsor
county. Modest, intelligent, high-minded,
faithful and capable, Col. Pingree will make
thoroughly excellent and estimable Gov
ernor. His promise in his brief telegram of
thanks, read in the convention, to "keep
bright the honor of the. State" will be faith
fully fulfilled.
The most important duty of the Lieuten-
antGovernor is to preside In the Senate.
Mr. Ormsbee, who was yesterday nominated
for the office in question, is an excellent
presiding officer and will preside
over the deliberations Of the Sem
ate with dignity and acceptability. He
was Captain of Co. G of the Twelfth Yer.
mont. He is prominent lawyer of Rut-
land county and has represented his town In
the House and his county in the Senate.
His competitor before the convention, Mr..
atchelder of Arlington, is bright and
SPular man, and be can well afford to
