"The now exemption law, of which
there has been so much talk of late,
went into effect June l, the last
Legislature having passed an amend
mcnt to section 6, article l3, chapter
80, of General Statutes, allowing am
exemption of household furniture,
horses, carriages and other articles
of personality to the value of about
$3.50. The amendment to the above
section and article does not affect Sec
ton s, article ID, chapter 3S, allowing
wages to be garnisheed for all debts
contracted for groceries, house rent
and clothing, The wages of single
men can be attached for all debts
ontractcd by them. An impression
has gained ground that the new ex-
emption law docs away with the
heretofore existing garnishee law,
which is mistake, as the garnishee
law still remains in full force and eff
feet"

The Republicans think they have
discovered dccp-laid plot by which
there's to be Dcmocratic-G reenback
fusion ticket voted for in Maine,
New Hampshire, Wisconsin, Iowa,
Michigan, Kansas, Minnesota and
Colorado. In these States there is a
large Greenback vote-large enough
should il be combined with the Demo-
cratic vote to defeat the Republicans.
The scheme is for the Democrats to
vote with Greenbackers and elect
both the Grcenback candidates for
Congress and the Presidential cleo
tors. BY such movement the Dem
ocrats have nothing to lose and every
thing to gain. The Grcenback Con-
gressmcn elected would take just that
many Congressman away from the
Republican party, while the number
of Democratic Congressman would
remain the same as it is at present.
If the fusion would work SUCCESSFUL
ly the Republicans would lose sixty
six electoral votes.

The Republican Convention.

The Republican National Conven-
ton was called to order at Chicago,
at II :2j O'Clock p. NJ. June 3, by d.
M. Sabin, Chairman of the National
Committee. After prayer by Rev.
Frank Briscol and an address of well
come by Mr.. Sabin, the chair stated
that Gen. Powell Clayton, of Arkan-
sas, had been selected for temporary
chairman by the National Committee.
ii. G. Lodge, of Massachusetts,, moved
to substitute the name of John r.
Lynch, colorcd, of Mississippi. This
caused spirited debate which ended
by roll call of the delegates, one by
ole, being ordered. This consumed
three hours and resulted in the cleo
ton Of Lynch by vote of 43l to 3S7.
After appointing committees the con-
vention adjourned until IL o'clock,
Wednesday morning.
The Committee on Permanent or
ganization re ,nrtcd'J. T.. Henderson,
of Missouri, for Permanent Chair
man. The vote in committee between
him and Grow, Blaine's man, was 20
to II. Henderson was Sherman man
and his election had no significance.
On Wednesday morning the con-
vcntion met and permanent Or
ganization was effected but it con-
tinued in session only one hour, as the
committees were not ready to re-
port.
The chairman made a speech in
whic he eulogizcd all Of the candi-
dates. Blaine's name was chcercd
more than any of the others. A res
olutlon pledging support to the nom
ilecs was offered and, after an cx-
citing debate, withdrawn.
Gen. Sherman sent a dispatch t.,
the chairman positively declining to
allow the use of his name as cand-
date. This was. ostensibly in
the interest of his brother, John
Sherman.
The night session was also very
short. The committee on credentials
was not ready to report and nothing
could be done until the contests were
all settled.
After much Squabbling it was di-
cided by the Indiana delegation to
let llarrison's name be presented,
though he will not get the votes OF
Gresham's men. This will make
seven names to be presented to start
on with the stables full of dark horses.
Blaine will lead with about 1926 votes.
Arthur will come next with about
300 and Edmunds, Logan, Sherman
Harrison and IIawley will divide the
other 1875 votes between them.
The committee on credentials re-
ported unanimously yesterday morn
ing and the day was consumed in
discussing that and other reports. 1t
isnot likely that ballot was reach
cd last night, but the convention will
