VIII There be a Protest.

Without any question, the sentiment
of Massachusetts in 1884 was decidedly
anti-Blaine. 1t will not be from any
lack of energy on the part of the Blaine
men that that situation is not exactly
reversed in the Massachusetts delega-
tion to Chicago in June, made of ex-
actly % advocates of the Blaine nomi-
nation. And yet there is good deal
of question among the serious and
thoughtful men in the state as to
whether Blaine is the best man to be
nominated. But will they make a
fight against his securing the Massa-
chusetts delegation7 That is the ques-
ton. Will they?

AGRICULTURAL MEETING.

There was a full meeting of the ex-
ecutive committee of the Caledonia
county agricultural society at the Ave-
nue. House Tuesday, President j. G..
Hovey presiding. An hour or two was
spent in discussing the advisability of
making some change in the premiums
on cattle that would admit the teams
usually exhibited by L. D. Hazen, the
Fairbankses and others and at the
same time give the small farmer a
show. After thorough discussion it
was decided that the old premium list
on cattle could not be improved upon,
and the first division on cattle, the Sec
ond on bloOded stock and the third on
Jerseys, Holsteins and grades were left
as last year.
The afternoon session of the COM
mittee was also fruitful in talk and dis
cussion but not in positive action.
About all that was done was to add a
number of premiums, amounting in
the aggregate to $50, to the horse di-
vision. The same premiums as last
year were voted and in addition spec
ial premiums for registered stock in
class of best stallion and best three
years old and two years old stations,
and also duplicating the premiums in
the fifth division of last year for thor
oughbred breeding mare and colt,
three years old colts, two years old colts
and yearling and sucking colts.

The dance last week Tuesday night
came near being failue as the musi-

George Varney lost valuable four
year-old colt recently that he had just
broken to drive; caused by getting one
leg hurt in the stable.
James Webb returned from Concord,
N. H., where he has been working in Il

They Mark Time but DON'T March.

In spite of the rapidly rising tide of
public sentiment in every city and
hamlet, we see two old parties which,
as parties, have not made one actual
step in advance or taken ground one
inch higher. "Rub-a- dub-dub, rub-a-
dub-dub," beat the drums of progress,
and the old parties marking time and
trying to delude themselves with the
belief that they are keeping up with
the procession. And to increase the
delusion, there are marches and cOun-
marches and all sorts of bewilder-
ing evOlutions; one flank goes forward

AN EARTHQUAKE.
This Section Experiences Brief but
Very Perceptible Shake.

At 11.0l yesterday forenoon there
was a preceptible earthquake shock
felt throughout this section, lasting
perhaps Is or 20 seconds. Windows
and doors ratified, hanging lamps shook
and there was visible trembling of
furniture, dishes, and movable articles.
People in the Y. NJ. G. A. building and
the upper stories of the brick block in
which this Office is located were some
what alarmed and started for the
street, but the shock was so brief that
they were soon assured. Even people
walking in the streets noticed the earth
tremble. Some people who heard the
rumbling noise did not realize the
cause but supposed it was snow sliding
off the buildings, while others who
were near the railroad track thought
a train was passing, until they looked
and ,sAsnd their mistake.
TRymost severe earthquake shock
ever experienced in this section occur
red Oct. 20, 1870, at I1.25 a. m., after
a prolonged rainstorm and while the
rain was still falling. That shock was
severe enough to topple over Chin
ney on Union block, make large cracks
in the public schoolhouse, ring door
bells, rattle dishes and greatly frighten
many people. Those who attempted
to walk across the floor while that
shock lasted said the sensation was
similar to an attempt to walk on a
piece of stretched canvass. School
children and teachers and many other
people ran into the streets expecting
to see buildings fall. The barber
shop in Union block was emptied of
occupants soon after the bricks began
to fall over their heads and one, a
prominent doctor of divinity, rushed
into the street with the lather still on
his face and towel about his neck.

The Eclipse.
The eclipse of the moon was OBJ
served here under the most favorable
circumstances Saturday evening. The
sky was cloudless, the air clear and
every phase easily observed from all
points. The eclipse began an hour be-
fore the rising of the the moon, but it
was four hours after that when it end
ed. 1t reached its total phase about
Z o'clock. AS has been said by inter
ested observers elsewhere, it was alto
gether a spectacle of surprising beauty
worth taking great pains to have seen,
and yet probably missed by thousands
because it occurred near supper time
But there were, nevertheless, many in
Tho vicinity who wore intercetod ob

special effort they might have made.
