Henry A. Robinson's nomination by
the Republican Congressional Conven.
ton is most wise and coinmendable
action, for as we recently stated, he,
being supported by the labor party or
ganization, is the only candidate the
republicans could present as at all like.

the democratic candidate, Judge Chip

Senator Logan knows a good thing
about cause and effect. He said in a
recent interview in Kansas, that he
was not greatly surprised at the defeat
of the republican ticket In 1884, but
there was no doubt Of its success in
1883. During the years 1862 and
1863" said he, "the loyal unmarried
men of the country were in the army,
and at home they were breeding cop
perheads. These came of age and
voted for Cleveland. us expected. In
1864 and 1865 the soldiers came home,
and within twelve months nearly all of
them were married. Their boys will
cast their first vote in 1888, and nine
out of ten of them are, like their faith
ers, republicans. We are as sure to
carry the election as the sun is to rise.

The manufacturers of St. Jacobs Oil (the Chas. A. Vogeler Oo.) of Baltimore have won suit in the English courts, wherein they opposed the registering by Churchill X Co.,, an Australian firm, of the title of ''St. Patrick's Oil' as trademark for a medicinal preparation. The Vogeler Com pany, while admitting that the term and device which were sought to be registered were in no respect identical to the we'll known St. Jacobs Oil trademarks, con- tended that sufficient similarity existed be- tween the terms St. Patricks and St. Ja- cobs to, cause confusion in the minds of the public and lead to purchasers being deceived. In support of this position they submitted evidence from English, Ameri- can and Australian sorlrces.E Under the decision of the court, Churchill & Go. can- not register their mark and must pay costs of the cose. This is the second trademark suit won by the Vogeler company in Eng land within three years.

The fire was discovered about n. 50 a.m., in the dry room over the boiler room, and the volunteer iremen through several mishaps were prevented from getting con- trol until this building was destroyed and the fire had damaged the main building on the outside, good equipment of sprink- lers helping to keep the fire from getting within the mill. The saving of the main building was d good piece of amateur fire manship. The insurance is 5000. The Glen mill was built in 1865 by l.. E. Sage, at cost of 1000, burned in 1878, and rebuilt the same year. It is owned by Horace Kimball of Providence, and operat- ed by P. B. Wall.
