Parties.
The following, from Secretary Sherman's
speech at Cincinnati, is an unanswerable argu-
ment in favor of Republican rule:
During the three years Of DIR. Hayes's admin
istration, ending June 30. 1880, there was col
lected from an sources 1891 876.359 SO. All this
vast sum has been paid into the treasury ex-
cepting about $l5 900 and it is believed that even
this sum will be recovered. The internal reve-
nue. collected in every part Of the United States
has been paid into the treasury without tho loss
of dollar. Besides the collection OF the reve-
nue., the great transactions of the Postofice De-
pHrtment extending all over the country and
collecting and disbursing during the last three
years an amount Of more than 500, 900, 600, have
thus far been made with the loss Of less than
$1,000 Iii the small defaleations that have oc-
CURED, suits have been promptly brought against
the defaulting officers or their snreties, and
Judgments enforced. "A system of rigid ac-
countability for public moneys has been applied,
without fearo favor, with results that have
never before been realized by any administra
ton.
1.-THE disbursement of this money BIZ public
officers at home and abroad has been made for
purposes for which it WIS appropriated by Con

During the administration of James Bsichan-
an, the loss by defalcatiors of public nfieers in
the collection and disbursement Of the public
moneys, was So 81 on every 900; during
Pierces administration it was 1885; during
Folks administration it was 81 0s; during Jack

BooNvILLE July 3O.-In the last three
months several horses have been poisoned in
the vicinity Of Taylorsyille, a small village ff-
teen miles north Of here, and recently a reward
of $500 was offered for the detection and arrest
of the guilty persons. John Ingram and James
Spradleys disreprtable fellows who have been
guilty Of many offensAs were suspected John
L. Bethel, farmer living near Taylorsville,
believed he could secure the reward, and en-
tered upon an investigation of the case as de-
teetiye. Getting Ingram intoxicated, Bethel
succeeded in obtaining from him confession
that himself, 6pradley and two daughters Of the
latter had committed all the poisoning in a
spirit of revenge. Ingram was arrested,
and, after giving bond, left the country
Spradley was notified by committee
of vigilantes thai he must leave the county
within ten days Yesterday Bethel started to
Boonville but this morning was found dead in
the streets Of Taylorsvilla with several bullet
holes in his body It is believed that he was
murdered by either Ingram or Spradley. The
ten days allowed Spradley in which to leave the
county expired tonight, and to-day he started
but was ordered to return home, and informed
that tonight he would be lynched. The people
ia the vicinity of paylorsville are intensely ex-
cited, and it is feared that there may be serious
with posse, started for Taylorsyille, this
evening, to take Spradley into custody and
prevent, ii proSSible, the mob from doing him or
his daughters any injury.

what Is an Average Jersey

NEW England FARMER.
The question is often asked by men who are
not very familiar with the herd, s.What is an
average Jerseyl and it has not been easy to get
a satisfactory answer. The impression is quite
common among most farmers that the
average Jersey COW OF this country is smaller
milk producer than the average dairy herds
owned by men who select from native cattle, or
with no regard to herd or pedigree. "A great
many farmers are of the opinion that little
Jersey blood mixed into their herds is q help
especially in giving color to their butter and in
giving cream that will rise quick and churn
readily, but they just as firmly believe that a
little of the blood is far better than much. They
do not want any pure ones. They are too small
and too tender, too dainty as feeders, and Of too
little value for beef or as veal calves.
Now the men who improved Jerseys will not
agree to any Of this talk. They know that their
animals are far ahead of any ordinary natives,
and they are neither small dainty, nor tender.
Our observation is that q great many miserable
Jersey calves have been raised and put upon
the market that never should have been allowed
to pass the veal age They have been raised for
no other reason than that they were Jerseys,
and because Jerseys as breed have gained a
reputation 1t is asserted by Jersey breeders,
who ought to know, that the large majority Of
the animals in the Island of Jersey are inferior
| animals, either as milk-producers or as butter
makers. The breed has been kept pure, but

years past having given much attention

Nomination of Republican Greenbacl
State Ticket.

State Ticket.
PARK ERsBURG July 30.-The Republican
State convention was called to order to-day at
II A. N. by G. W, Atkinson, chairman of the
State Central committee J. P Clifford, OF Har
rison county, was made temporary chairman,
and G. S. Howell, of Ohio county, temporary
secretary, The convention was the largest and
most enthusiastic ever assembled in the State,
George F. Evans, of Martinsburg was made
permanent chairman.
The platform arraigns the Democratic party
for leaving unfuldlled all its pledges of economy
and reform; for having squandered the people
money in extravagant and unnecessary legisla-
ton; for having imposed unjust and erroneous
taxes upon the people and enforcing their col
lection BY gross peryersion of the State Consti-
tuition; for having, through its executive,
defied and ahrogated State statutes;
for having, through its Judiciary,
revived the tyranny Of medieval history; for
having subjected to double taxation the property
of a large majority of the people of the State;
for having imposed heavy burdens upon the
people through frequent and excessive reassess-
ineHts ufreal estate. The platform favors the
passage BY tho Legislature of laws inviting cap
ital to come in and develop the great natural
resources of the State; also condemns
the Supreme Court Of Appeals for overriding a
statute Of the State for the express purpose of
furnishing Republican newspaper for proper
criticism of itself and its party. The usual
planks concerning convict labor foreign emf
grafton and coal-bank laws were passed. An at
tempt to commit the party to an endorsement ola
prohibition plank was defeatedby very decided
vote.
The following ticket was nominated: Cover.
nor, Edwin Maxwell; Auditor, j. II, Burt;
Treasurer, Spencer w. Sturm: Attorney general,
John A. Hutchinson; Superintendent Of Schools,
J. N. Kedall Judge Of Supreme Court, long
term, Nv. II. H. Flick; short term, james II.
Brown; electors at large John Frew, of Wheel
ing, and John Cooper Of Hawksnest,
