THE department OF agriculture has
received advices from the dominion
live stock inspector 10 the effect that
the entire shipment of cattle recently
made from Scotland to Canada, now
in quarantine at Quebec, is afflicted
with pleuro-pneumonia, and orders
will be given that the entire lot be
slaughtered and cremaled at once.
The shipment consisted of fifty.seven
head of full-blooded Galloways, owned
10y Hector, McCrae. of Montreal, re-
Gently purchased in Kirkend, Bright
shire, Scotland. and valued AT $4,000.
There are also 500 other cattle belong
ing TO Andrew Allan, of Montreal; j.
J. Hill, of 81. Paul, Mimi, Senator
Cochrane, of Hillhurst, Canada, and w.
Dawes, of Lacbine, Quebec. OF this
lot the greater part are black polled
cattle, for which high figures were
paid. The whole 357 head are valued
at $500, 600. All must he sacrificed, as
those not now down with the disease
have beeh exposed during shipment.
Since the expectation of these cattle
has taken place pleuro-pneumonia has
broken out on the farms of the export
ers, and the cattle have been slaugh-
tered by the local authorities.

A Pointer for New York Taiiors.

YOUNG James Blank. whose father is
among the millionaires, lounged into a
tailor shop some weeks ago aI.i ordered
a suit Of clothes. The suit was sent 10
the young mans hotel. but Of course the
tailor got no money for it. A few day
ago a. Master James was passing by the
tailor shop the bland pr .ris:os hailcC
him with a smile.
Why, vi" ter James," he said, "..aat

coat. Then zomethinr was wrong w-i.h
The vest. md that 90 was taken down

Nov said the willy tailor, you will
have to send = messenger boy to yoIr

Young Master James begged hard for
his clothes. but the tailor was memorable

Cringing s.rvility of Engiand's Poor.

To American eyes London is a very sac
city; far sadder city than Paris; an[
the struggle for existence among the
poor seems harder and more desperate.
But, perhaps. even more deplorable and
painful than this physical poverty is th'
moral poverty which permits the cring
ing seryility to be seen among those whc
are poor but not respectable. Below g
certain level-and there are thonsands
and thousands below this level-it is hard
to detect any manly selt.respect or any
trace of shame at ESTABLISHMENT. This
servility is encouraged and rewarded py

a higher walk Of life, most of WHOM

The County Republican Committees Of the sew

tions in their respective counties and elect dele
gates and alternate delegates from each OF said
counties to the Territorial Convention above
designated.
Its desired that sufficient notice Of such con-
ventons be given. The Territorial Republican
Committee respectfully recommends that the said
County Conventions be held early in September,
but such date should be fixed therefore as, after
giving due notice to the Republicans OF the coun'
ties, will be most convenient
Ii Is presumed that the custom heretofore pre-
yailing in the several counties OF the territory
whereby delegates to the Territorial convention
are elected from the respective counties by the
conventions which emble 10 nominate county
officers will prevail during the present year.
To the end that all counties in the territory re-
mote from or near to the place OF holding the Ter
riiorial Convention, shall have opportunity to be
represented therein fairly, and 10 prevent any ex.
traneous Interference with the deliberate desires
Of the Republicans Of each county, the following
rules have been prescribed by former conventions
for the government Of the Republican Territorial
Conventions In the territory OF Montana:
i.-Delegates and alternate delegates shall be
elected in the future TO Territorial Conventions,
and In the event Of the failure Of delegate 10 at
tend The alternate delegate shall cast the vote Of
the delegate whose alternate he is.
2-ln the absence Of a delegate and his alternate
O majority Of the delegation from that county
shall cast the vote of the absentee.
AIN the absence Of all the delegates and alter
nate delegates from any county, no vote shall be
cast for such county.
Ain The county in which the Territorial Con-
vention shallbe held, when gny delegate and his
alternate delegate absent there shall be- no vote
cast in their b half

SECRETARY BAYARD, now that he
is given something to do beyond mere
Office routine, is developing an incom-
potency which never would have dis
covered itself under ordinary circum-
stances. His official career thus far
has demonstrated the axiom that it
is easy enough to be secretary of state
when there is nothing for secre-
tary of state TO do. From the
inceptoan of the Mexican compica-
ton up to the present time he
has made himself conspicuous by a
series Of blunders and now, in utter
despair over the accumulation of eyi.
dence of incompetency, he pleads do.
nestle troubles and the misconsiruc-
ton of enemies in extenuation. Cleve-
lands cabinet is good enough for fair
weather work, but should this country
be precipitated into serious difficulties
with neighboring government ii will
occur forcibly to the public that our
government is sadly in need of Sec
rotary of state, secretary of war.
secretary of the navy and perhaps a
President.

The Macleod Gazette takes a very

THE Macleod Gazette takes a very
sensible view of the probabilities for
stock getting through the winter aud
the probable hardness of the winter as
generally considered. IL says: wa
rious opinions are expressed concern
ing the coming winter. There are
some who think that ii will be very
mild one, and Others who believe that
it will be very severe. In support Of
the former view we can bring forward
the fact that the last two winters have
been rather on the severe side, and IL
does not seem probable that third OF
greater severity will follow them. On
the other hand there is a wide spread
feeling that these western skies must
give up certain amount Of moisture
each year, and that it will come either
in the shape of rain or snow. Follow
ing this out, and supposing that such
is the case, we may expect large
quantity of the beautiful this winter.
The said moisture has certainly not
come In the shape Of rain, and If the
theory which is above suggested Is at
all correct, we may expect plenty Of
snow. Whatever the winter may be,
il will be money saved for the stock
men II they make ample preparation
for 1t. All of the large companies,
and many small individuals are put
ting up plenty Of hay, and to them, OF
course, these remarks do not apply,
but there may be some few who are
trusting in the providence which usu-
ally protects this country from the
more severe moods of the weather
clerk. To them we say, put up hay.

If THE Review and Standard,

If THE Review and Standard, of
Pueblo, Col, is correctly advised, the
cattle ranges in that state are turned
into Gehennas. TO quote from that
paper, sit has been generally under.
stood, private and confidential, that
the losses of range cattle In southern
Colorado and northern New Mexico
were greater than any of the published
estimates. Recently, however, the
writer has been furnished some figures
by COW man which are nothing If
not startling. One company, which
turned out $500 dogies has gathered 9
solitary head; another company
which put out ], S23 head, 200 in pas
ture, gathered 80 head from the. out
side; still another, out of 5000, has
gathered 300; fourth owner lost half
his range of stock.

The Herrid climss. Of Paris.

Paris may in its way be sort Of para
disc. but its climate is entirely unlike
the traditional softness and uniformit,
of seasons that surrounded the garden
where dwelt our first parents. The
winters are long. if the last is to be
taken as a specimen, and Ike those Of
Boston they merge, without he gentle
gradations of spring, into an oppressive
summer. The past winter was all snow,
sleet, mud, rain and fog, with the raresi
intervals of sunshine. Paris houses art
usually badly built, with gaping cracks
about the doors, and badly fitting win,
dows that freely admit the wind. If ont
has a CRATE foT coal it is infinitesimal; Il
he burns wood it is in a fireplace &c
deeply recessed that all the heat goes uI
the chi nney. The taste and talent Of
Paris artist are marvellous. The practi
cal ability of the Paris artisan or me
chanic is beneath contempt. He builds
badly because the public that employs
him, not being educated as in Americs
up to the proper standard of comfort,
accepts the result OF his imperfect labor
without question. So wealthy people
cover and shiver over a feeble flame In
a room beautifully decorated and fitted
with rich and tasteful objects of art.
In winter the fogs are only less con
slant aud depressing than those Of Lon
don. Some warm weather at the end OF
March leads to the belief that spring is az
hand. Nothing of the kind. For fully
two months thereafter the weather
passes through a series Of surprising
transitions from extreme heat TO extreme
cold without day or scarcely an hour
that can be called genial. For these
reasons Paris, with its narrow streets,
mall-windowed houses, and it, excess Of
cold and gloomy weather, needs its wealth
of scenic display, its gayety and all it,
varied means Of physical an ! intellectual
enjoyment 70 render the life oi its cit,

meanlur of Color, OF F.a.,

Several OF our readers wish TO know
the meaning Of the various cO!ors dis.
played on flags. The generally accepted
meaning of flags Of a single color is
white. as token Of peace; red. of de.
tiance: black is the sign Of piracy, or a
black flag is hoisted as an indication that
40 quarter viii be given or taken; yell
low nag denotes quarantine. The Gags
first used were Of a single color only, but
gradually. as new nations were forming,
bags OF two and more colors, and vari-
Gus devices were designed.
