A resolution was offered and pass ed at
the meeting of the Committee prohibit
ing the admission OF proxies unless the
delegate bearing the proxy is from the
same county as the regularly elected del
egate whom he desires to represent.
The Committee most earnestly urges
the Republicans OF Alabama to organize
for the approaching elections, see that
your beat and county conventions are
well attended and composed of repre-
sentative Republicans, send to the State
Convention as delegates, only those who
will reflect credit upon the party and
themselves. We deem it unnecessary
to say more. The principles OF the Re
publican party to-day are indentical with
those under which we have fought SO
many battles and gained 50 many vic
toriess
Freedom Of the ballot, education and
tile protection of our working men is re-
publicanism.
Respectfully,
ARTHUR BINGHAM,
Chairman.

From the paper of the historian of the state press association read aJ Pine Bluff last week, the following interesting statistics are compiled:
 There are 16l newspapers in the state, as follows: Daihes, 10; week lies, IA; semi weeklies, ?; month. lies, 5. In the seventy countries of the state every county except Cal houn, Chlcot, Crittenden, Lafayette and Montgomery, there are papers published. During the year thirty five papers have been started and thirty three have suspended, show ing an increase of two. There have been fifty seven changes during the year, editorially and otherwise; three editors have died during the year. There are 4S6 type-setters and prln ters engaged on the papers, and $l23,- 700 has been paid them during the year as wages, which makes an aver age of $79.60 per month for good, bad and indifferent. The value of newspaper plants is S233, $50, the combined weekly circulation ITS, 9SS copies, and grand total of the year 7,544,665 copies -onc paper each week to every five inhabitants, or one to every voter. This is an Tn crease over last year of 642,3 cop ies. Estimating the average size at seven columns, it requires 502,97S pounds of white paper to run the papers of tho state, and $3,520, S46 to defray thc expenses.

PETERsoN's MAGAZINE for June is an unusually brilliant number, even for that popular monthly. It opens with one of the most beautiful of steel -engravings, "Buttertlies;" has superb double sized colored fash ion plate; also steel-engraying and most exquisite colored pattern, .'Design in Strawberries-and Leaves" :" for a side board cover The original tales, illustrated articles, etc, etc, more than sustain the high charac- ter of thls lady's book. Two stories alone are worth the price of the nun Der: one by A. Bowman, and tue other by Frank Lee Benedict. We do not see how any lady can do with out this magazine. Now is q good time to subscribe, to begin with the July number, when new volume commences: good tune, at least, for those who do not wish back mum bers from January.
