THE O'Ryan Error has again strengthened the hump out of it's longitudinal back, and as it paces along, roars lustily at the call for a county convention-"Bogus! Bo- gus! Bogus!" Bogus because the O'Ryan Error was not consulted before the writers of the call made it public-bogus because John B. Milner thinks the movement antag- onistic to the mongrel slate he has been figuring on at the Error office for weeks past-bogus because Milner and his little clique will not be able to dictate terms, and take possession of the coun- ty-bogus because the afore- said Milner was not taken out be- hind his printing office and conf dentially taken into copartnership bogus because this windy war rior fights every thing which threat ems to break up the wicked alliance he has formed to deliver the tax payers, bound and shackled, into thc hands of the Philistincs, while he accepts bowl of political DOT ridge as the price of his pertidy

ADvIcEs from the East state thar

ADvIcEs from the East state that abount ten o'clock on the evening of August 31st, a severe earthquake shock was felt all over the country east of the Mississippi river. Large buildings swayed and tottered as il about to fall. In many places fur niture was upset, and china and glassware thrown from shelving and broken. In some localities the excitement ran so high that it al- most amounted to a panic. An au- dience in a Washington theatre be- came panic-stricken and rushed pellmell from the house. Cincin- nati, Pittsburgh, Detroit, Indianap- oils, New York, Philadelphia and many cities, were the scenes of widest consternation and alarm. The shocks and vibrations seem to have been severest in the Caro- linas. All communication is cut off from Charleston, South Caro- lima, and the greatest anxiety is felt throughout the country; the wires are down and unable to be used from any direction. The severest shock was about one minute in du- ration.

WE learn by a Tucson dispatch
 of the Sd instant, the following par ticulars of Geronimo's surrender : The old chief, with fourteen of his followers, went into Lawton's camp, threw down their arms and asked permission to surrender. Captain Lawtor told him that he would accept nothing but an uncondition- al surrender, and told him to bring in all his band. Geronimo did so and his whole outfit was surren- dered. Word was at once sent to General Miles, asking him to re- ceive the prisoners, and the Gene

 TIE Era claims that the an nouncement of ''Citizen's Party made in its issue of August 26th. was a clipping from q California paper. "Oniy this and nothing more." The article was not cred ited, and if 1t was taken from a for eign paper as an item of general news, possessed the same interest for the reading public, as a page of matter selected at random from a Patent Office Report. What pos sessed the editor of the Era to se- feet as 9 news item, an extract which could not possibly interest readers outside the immediate vi- cinity of its origin, we are at a loss to imagine, but presume it should be scored among the many peculiar and unaccOuntable things which are constantly appearing in that remarkable sheet If the ar ticle was taken from a California paper, it's publication as an unnoted cuIling to readers of Apache coun- ty, was but little short of absurdity, and it's language little meaning little relevancy bore" It is so startIingly devoid of pith or point under the status given 1t by the Era, that it would have redounded to the credit of the editor, had he declined to contradict the explana- ton given it by readers.
 We would like very much 10 know the California paper that fur nishes it's readers with such impcr- ishable and wonderful specimens of literature. We are convinced it could not survive the shock of many such publications, but would be retired to the fostering care of some Kindergarten, With an ovation of criticism from the press at large. Brother Milner, in accents soft and low, breathe into our ear the zen titlement" of that wonderful reser- voir of knowledge you have dis covered in California, from which the Era derives its sustenance and intellectual strength, If such a paper exists, we confidently assert that 1t is the only living rival of the Era, which heretofore has stood solitary, alone, unique, unapproach- able and pre-eminent in the domain of journalism, as the great original weekly production of Comedy of Errors" "Another Richmond in the field' as a companion to the Orion Era. The only lingering, living example of newspaper that uses 9 shotgun for compositor, a blacksmith to make up, sledge hammer for impression, and Cal ifornia back number for an editor.

what would people say if typo graphical Josh Billings should be placed in the judicial chair. "An- gels and ministers of grace defend us" A wonderful spasm of hon. esty has shaken up the diaphragm and elongated articulation of the
 Error. An earthquake has created a panic all over the East, houses
 have crumbled, household gods been prostrated in the dust and consternation seized upon the peo- pie. Some imaginations might make of this picture of desola- tion and horror. Turn with q smile from such a playful freak of nature, and in awe-stricken silence con template the visitation which has Overtaken the Error. 4 struggling electric flash of honesty, looking for resting place in St. Johns, wandered into the O'Ryan Error office, and in the terrified endeavor to escape, mistook an attenuated relic for lightning rod. Up and down the editorial frame work raced the frantic current, throughout the sounding caverns of the cranial dormtories, the festive lightning joined in galop with St. Vitus, down the vertebrated curvature, the stampedod honesty went until 1t reached the uttermost extension of the prehensile organ. No rest or hiding place could be found even in the lumbar regions, the digesti, e organs failed to assinlilate such a strange visitor-it next sought shel- ter amid the luxuriance of the am brosial locks, nestled for protection among che dimples of the bronzed cheek-a blush expelled the stran- ger. The Error las preserved a type of it. "Only this and noth- ing more"
 The Error now parades this mel anchOly semblance of honesty with the audacity of a veteran. If you are so gricvously afflicted with hon esty, why don't you tell the people all about those meetings you are holding, those combinations you are trying to effect, and the various political irons you have in the fire with a view to selfish ends? Per haps there is no honesty in it, for to use your own words, ''honesty does not fear daylight" " This call for convention is not made in the interest of individuals, and hence not signed by any. Every citizen is invited to participate-there is daylight around it, and all through it. It is proposed to do every thing in the presence of and with the sanction of the people, and what it lacks in honesty, might be borrow ed from the delectable arrangement the Error is getting up, We en- dorse the sense, spirit and mean ing of the call, as it is the only method to obtain expression of the will of the people. It is inmate rial who calls the people together, the fact that they do meet and act, is the all important question. Even if citizens meet in a body without being called, their action in the premises demands the respect to which their numbers entitIe it. It is a suggestion and invitation that the taxpayers meet and consult upon matters touching their inter- estS, and no reasonable objection can be offered. We are receiving assurances every day that the call is meeting a hearty response all over the county.
