The Territory.
letters cover territory from

The letters cover territory from New
England to the Mississippi, and their testi-
mony is uniform that dissatisfaction with
Blaine and Logan is strong among old-hne
Republicans as well as in the young blood
of the party. The latest letters at hand,
bearing on arrangements for the conference,
show that from the States bordering New
York existing organizations and organiza-
tions in embryo will be well represented.
Committees have been formed within a
day or two in several town and cities for the
immediate purpose of sending delegates to
the conference. The natural result will be
that after the conference organizations will
quickly spring into activity for the cam
paign. 1t is not possible now to estimate
what NAV be the numerical or representa-
tive strength of the conference. Some Of
the letters ofinquiry indicate curiosity to
know more than has yet appeared Of the
staying equaGties Of those who have enlist
ed in the movement. A few of the writer's
say that while in sympathy with the bolt
they know that open declaration to that
effect NAV excite temporary prejudice
against them on the part Of old party asSo-
ciates, and they want to be assured that the
good company they are willing to enter
will stand topether

THEY DON'T WANT BLAINE.

Letters from All Parts of the Country to
the Independents---A General Kick
Against the Man from Maine--.The Com
ing Conference.
New YORK, July lS.-The Independent
Republicans, out Of the city as we'll as
within, are at work in earnest to make next
weeks conference a success. 1t has been
but three DAYS since the call was issued,
and adyices already received insure a large
gathering at the conference. The secreta-
ries Of the General and Executive Commit
tees are in daily receipt of more letters than
they can possibly acknowledge were all
their time to be given to it, and it has been
necessary to install q small working force
at headquarters, contrary to anticipation.
Many of the letters report the condition OF
public feeling in various localities; many
are of inquiry, asking for documents of
various kinds and as to methods Of organi-
zation; others are from subscribers to the
movement, Republicans so far without ex-
ceptiOn.

ton Of water there is in the United
States The Iron water is certainly
the finest combination of tonics and
diuretics there is, while the Salts
water is laxative and Alternative. We
believe there is no disease but what
will be benefited by the waters here
if properly used. We think it is alb
solutely necessary for everyone COM
ing here to consult physicion so
that he may know that his system is
in proper condition to receive the
water and in what quantity to use it,
and which water to use first. 1t will
be much cheaper to pay the plrysi-
cion a small fee and be sure you are
right. A week with a little medi-
cal treatment in some cases is worth
more than month with the water
only. 1t will be impossible to make
a success of the water until there is
some system about its use. You
must not expect Dawson to do for
you in few days what has been
undoing for years. You must come

nnEAKnRs AND BREAKERS.

lamspAper correspondents are beginning
TO write hopefully from the interior OF the
state. and appear TO think that fence'eut'
ting, which was recently so rampant. has
seen It's worst days. Oaly n month or so
AGO that great evil was agitating all Texa';
In T. MOI III more we aporehend 1t will
De wholly a thing OF tho past.
And thus has l. been slmos,
every year. Al this session o. thl lcgaa'
ture It was thought that tie problem was
unsolvable. At the previous session the
subject that loomed up into mountain con-
spicuo usuess and threatened, as some were
wont to believe, the integrity Of Texas, was
the peni,enliary resumption, Prior to that
IL was the matter o! mo-
nopoles which pol tcians proclaimed
were seeking to break up Texas into seYeIaI
states. And yet again, before that we had
the questions OF public lands the
school lands, etc. on each and
every occasion nervous and timid people
were induced 10 think that the division o
the Lone Star into ito five parts was about
to be effected. And yet when the legisli
t,rs assent led and counselled together
for the general veal enacted laws and re-
turned 10 their homes behold the quiet
that succeeded. Just 30 will II DO next fall.
Some new matter we are not dreaming OF
IN day will burst upon 80, ~.S - Ill ---'
der then why we did not anticipate and
proviLe against 1t. The lesson to be
Harmed ia this: That we must expect in this
state of varied interests these
troubles to arise. And when they DO
come we must meet them ike
men and statesmen. All over.excitement
aud extreme measures must be divided
Moderate counsels must prevail and every
thing like special legislation in conf CT

Thus far the state has been fortunate II
