EARLY CLOSING.

Mr.. EDITOR In your article on
early closing this morning, you refer
to the petition and reply circulated
in 1873 in regard to closing at =.
NJ. on Saturdays. Why go back so
far, when it would be more to the
point at this time, to refer to the 2
O'Clock movement inaugurated about
four years ago, through the efforts
of Mr.. R. G. Janion. If you could
procure for publication the lists used
on that occasion it would probably
have more effect than those pub
lished to-day. And now a word in
regard to the letter Of "Suggestor."
He advocates closing at p. NJ. on
Wednesdays; but | think he would
find that in n very short time, all
hands would be tired of that, for
this reason; in great many in
stances the clerks would like to use
their half day, for a trip into the
country, or to go shooting; and the
consequences would be, that they
would be too tired to attend properly
to business the next day. If, on the
other hand, they had Saturday after
noon, there would he all day Sunday
to rest and get ready for Mondays
work. Yours, etc.,
March 18th. CLERK.

young man twcnty-three years ola
was taking q lady of thirty-cight out
to party, or rather the lady was
taking the young man, when in
the course of u frivolous CONVERSE
ton the lady asked her companion
why he did not get married. lie re-
piled that he did not know of any
one who would have him. She re-
marked that she "didn't know but
she might be willing to, whereupon
he said that he would marry her and
suggested that they drive directly to
a minister's. The lady dared"
him TO execute his plan. lie did as
she dared him and they were married.
After the party both were so fright
ened at what they had done that they
separated and did not meet for several
days, when friends prevailed upon
them to take up their habitation to-
gether.

A HEALTH EXHIBITION.

A Worlds Health Exhibition is to
be held at South Kensington, England
in May next. 1t will contain OBJ
jects to illustrate hygienic as well as
curative science and will illustrate
such matters as ventilation, drainage,
dress, food and the many other con-
ditions which play such an important
part in rhe physical well-being of a
people. The enterprise has been
Sufficiently advanced to assure its
success. An exhibition of this dis
cription is capable of great practi-
cal benefit. The experience of men
who have made study of such
matters Is put on exhibition and is
published in every quarter of the
globe. Whatever improves the
health of a people, improves at the
same time its intellectual position
and aids in advancing its material
interests. Hence the idea of such
an exhibition is good one. San
Francisco will send q section of the
Fifth-street Sewers. H. Chroni-

shall be limited to the requirements OF
economical government. The necessary
reduction in taxation can and must be ef-
fected without depriying American labor Of
the ability to compete successfully with
foreign labor, and without imposing lower
rates Of duty than will be ample to cover
any increased cost of production which may
exist in consequence of the higher rate OF
wages prevailing in this country. Sufficient
revenue to pay all the expenses Of the
Federal Government, economically admins
tered, including pensions, interest and
principal of the public debt, can be got
under our present system Of taxation from
custom house taxes on fewer imported
articles, bearing heaviest on articles OF lux
ury and bearing lightest on articles OF ne
cessity. We therefore denounee tine abuse
of the existing tariff, and subject to the pre-
ceeding limitations, we demand that Federal
taxation shall be exclusively for public
purposes, and shall not exceed the needs OF
the Government economically administered

1t is generally known that there have
been some changes in the supreme bench
of Maine; but outside of strictly legal cir
cles in this State. the extent of the changes
is not understood. The members Of the
present supreme court are Chief Justice
John A. Peters, Associate Justices, Chas.
w. Walton, Charles Danforth, VIM. Writ
Virgin. ARENAS Libbey, Lucilius A. En-
cry, Enoch Foster and Thomas H. Haskell,
the names of all being given IN the order Of
their appointment, with the exception of
the chief justice. OF this number, the
chief justice was appointed to his present
position within year, and the three last
named associate justices received their ap-
pointments to the bench within the same
period. With new chief, therefore, and
three entirely new associates, it will be seen
that there has been somewhat sudden and
radical change in the personnel of the bench.
This change resulted 10 the following man
ner:
The term of service of ex-Chief Justice
John Appleton, expired last September,
when he had reached the ripe age Of 10. If
it had not been for the Maine law recurring
new reappointments every seven years, he
might have held his position indefinitely, as
his mental and physical powers were in no
sense impaired, and many lawyers really de-
sired his reappointment. The powers that
were. however, thought it best to appoint
younger man, and although other members
of the bench were mentioned for the va
cancy, the general attention seemed to be
directed to Judge Peters, who combined
lo..a Il l. la
judgment and promptness Of decision, with
great personal magnetism and popularity. |
He therefore became chief justice on Sep
TENDER %. 1888. Lucilius A. Emery, of |
Ellsworth. was appointed TO ill his place as |
associate justice on Oct. 5, 1888 During
the spring Of 1884, Judge Barrows who had |
been on the bench, resigned, and on March
"a last, Enoeh Foster of Bethel, was ap-
pointed to succeed him. Judge J.. w.
Symonds, Of Portland, resigned his position

The Democratic Convention.

The Democratic National Convention
FRIDAY. nominated for President, Grover
Cleveland of New York, and for Vice Presi-
dent. Thomas A. Hendricks of Indiana. In
the nomination Of Cleveland two ballots
were taken
There were $50 votes in the convention.
requiring j47 to make the nomination.
On the first ballot Cleveland received 392.
and on the second 6Si votes, the last being
1876 votes more than was necessary for
choice.
Hendricks was unanimously nominated for
the second place on the ticket.
On the first ballot, beside the votes cast for
Cleveland, there were l6s for Bsyard, IS for
Thurman, IS for Randall, Sc for Mcdonald,
p for Carlisle, 4 for Flowers for Hoadlv,
for TIlden and for Hendricks.
Hendricks was given the second place both
for the purpose of strengthening the ticket in
indiana and in the hope of reviving some
of the old enthusiasm that was manifested
for Tilden and Hendricks, eight years
ago.
The difficult feat Of SO framing a platform
as to read well and yet not announce any
principle, on the question of Tariff, that could
arouse the opposition of the various elements
in the party, was accomplished after a
struggle, in the Committee room, of thirty
six hours. The plank is certainly master
piece in its way. The struggle to hide ''the
cat in the meal" or to cover their Free
Trade principles with soft and smooth sound
ing phrases. is so apparent that we present
it to our readers. as a literary curiosity,
more unique even than the former one of
Tariff for revenue only" The following
is the plank:
1.-The Democratic party is pledged to
revise the tariff in spirit of fairness to
all interests. But in making reduction in
taxes, it is not proposed to injure any
domestic industries, but rather to promote
their healthy growth. From the foundation
of this Government taxes collected at the
Custom House have been the chief source of
Federal revenue. Such they must continue
to be. Moreover, many industries have
come to rely upon legislation for successful
continuance, so that any change of Law must
be at every step regardful Of the labor and
capital thus involved. The process of re-
form must be subject in the execution to
this plain dictate of justice-all taxation
