Mr.. Blaine never could get along
with the stenographers- A man of
fluent speech, speaking on an inspiring
theme. seldom faces with satisfaction
the transcription of his words in cold
type. The stenographer asserts he re-
ported MIR. Blaine's abuse of Lord
Salisbury verbatim. Mr.. Blaine denies
this and furnishes an amended version
calculated to show that even in a
stump speech he observes the courtesies
of parliamentary bodies. And the En-
glish papers declare that his correction
is no better than the original version.
However, Mr.. Blaine would be glad o;
little abuse from the English press.

The popular impression as to the
duration of the lightning flash is that
it is practically instantaneous. From
the experiments of Wheatstone and
Others with the rotating disk the dura-
ton of the flashes measured would
vary apparently from the 1l0)O TO the
1-l0000 of a second. Others estimate
the duration of the fash as even shorter
than these figures.

ALL WRONG.

as candidate for County Clerk of Lyon
County on the Republican ticket, and is re-
ported by Parkinson of the Tribune as hav.
ing had enough fine anti Chinese movement
This is supposed 10 make him eligible and
strong as apolilcal aspirant on the Republi.
can ticket.-CaySoH Union.
The above is wrong all the way through.
In the first place it is Walter J. Harris who
is an aspirant for the Clerkship, not w. A.
Secondly, Mr.. Harris is member Of the
anti Chinese League here and always mani.
tested great interest for the success of the
League. Why the above appears in Carson
papers we do not understand as it Of no con.
sequence to them who runs for Office in this
county. Is it because you want 10 hurt the
candidate by such malicious squbs, or did
your information come from some Dayton
Democrat We will say right here that Mr.
Harris has TOO many friends in this county
and is too we'll known for such things 10 do
HIM any harm.

HARMONHZE.

ED. TINES There is to be meeting OF
Republican candidates at the Court House
this evening, the purpose of which is to
select men 10 be voted for as delegates 10
the County Convention to be held at Green
field, on the 2othnst hope this meeting
will be fully attended and the proceedings
harmonious and satisfactory to all. The
meeting to, night will be an important one,
as upon its action depends, in measure,
the success of the Republican party OF our
county this Fall. Personal ambitions and
aspirations should be set aside, private
piques and quarrels forgotten, and every one
labor to promote harmony and insure the
success OF the party. The men selected for
this trust should be honest, capable, earnest
and experienced, and should so TO Green
field untrameled with pledges to any men
or sci Of men, but be free to select from the
candidates presenting themselves, those who
in their deliberate judgment, are best fitted
forthe positions TO which they aspire. By
this means a ticket may be presented which
will secure the endorsement of the people,
and the officers when elected prove an honor
10 the county. The candidate who clamors
for place ON the ticket against the wishes
OF the people can prove but source Of
weakness 10 the ticket and will surely bring
disaster to himself at least. Personal
friendship should not influence a dele
gate 10 urge weak man upon the Con
venlion. The delegates should thoroughly
canvass the claims of each aspirant, and
without fear, favor or prejudice act for the
good OF the Republican party.
Ihave endeavored 10 show in former com.
munications, that the prosperity Of the
country depends wholly upon the success Of
the Republican party, and again earnestly
admonish every voter 10 think well before
casting ballot in favor Of any Democrat
this Fall. 1t is acknowledged that it is by
Republican votes that the Democrats are
now in power, and Democrats have been re-
Gently heard TO say that they expect 10 get
enough Republican votes to elect them. l
hope they will be disappointed. If the
gentlemen OF the Convention nominate our
best men only, success will surely follow.
If the men who are offering themselves
for any Of the positions are unfit, Ibelieve
the gentlemen Of the Convention should offer
the nominations TO others who are
worthy and competent. There are many
good men who would make excellent officers
whose modesty prevents them from coming
voluntarily before the public. If necessary
let these men be called from their seclusion
and let the ticket put in the field on the 2eth
of this month prove the wisdom Of our dele
gates, and insure the defeat of our Apo
nents. WoRKJNGMAN.
