In their convention on Saturday the
Republicans of Freeborn county unani-
mously adopted the following resolution:
That while we favor careful and Judi
cious revision and reduction of the tariff
in the interest of labor and the produc,
ing classes, especially placing lumber,
salt and sugar on the free list, we con-
denim the partisan and sectional tariff
bill which the Democratic party Is at
tempting TO impose on the country. That
we condemn the action OF the Demo-
cratic house of representatives and of
the Democratic representative i'm Con-
gress from this Congressional district in
regard to the direct tax refunding bill
as an abject and cowardly surrender of
Northern Democratic members to the
Confederate brigadiers. That we con-
denim the action OF the Democratic rep
resentatiye IN Congress from this dis
trict in leaving his post OF duty at WASH
ington at the most critical and important
period of the present session to act as
the paid attorney of the Winona & St.
Peter railway company, in it's efforts to
collect $50, 900 from the towns of Plain
view and Elgin, Wabasha county, on
fraudulent bonds of such towns. That
we favor liberal pensions in behalf of
the old loyal defenders of the country,
their widows and children, and We con-
denim the unkind and unpatriotic veto
of President Cleveland Of pension bills.
That we recognize the eminent ability
and fitness of Hon. james G. Blaine for
the Presidency, should delight to sup
port him If he should be nominated
but, being Republicans, we pledge our
cordial support to the nominee of the
national Republican convention"

and both times her impressions have proved
correct enough to be considered remarkable,
Yet not so exact in detail or distinctness as
the first time.
II will add that the lady has told me that
her vivid impression about me was only
one of ten or twelve experiences of like sort
near that time in relation to
other people, and that in
every case her impression proved correct.
She was recovering then from a long and
nearly mortal illness-malarial fever con-
tracted in Italy-and was for long time
in most delicate and precarious condi-
ton. AS her restoration to health pro-
crossed, she tells me, she found herself less
and less susceptible to impressions of the
sort described
The lady herself was persuaded to de-
scribe her experience in the letter given be-
low:
I'm the Commissioners from malarial
fever, during which great hyperasthesia of
brain had Q, tanned, but no Authorizations
or false perceptions. l was sitting alone in
my room looking out of the window. My
thoughts were of different trivialitieS.
After a time my mind seemed to be-
come absolutely vacant, my eyes felt
fixed, the air seemed to grow white,
could see objects about me. but it was
terrible effort of will to perceive anything.
sympathy with some one suffering, who or
where did not know. After little time
knew with whom, but how knew ] cannot
tell, for it seemed some time after this
knowledge of personality that | saw dis
tinctly, in my brain, not before my eyes,
large, square room. evidently in hotel,
and saw the person of whom had b en-
conscious lying face d wnward on the bed
in throes of mental and physical anguish.
I felt rather than heard sobs and growing,
and felt conscious. of the nature Of the
grief subjectively, though its objective
cause was not transmitted TO me. Extreme
exhaustion followed the experience, which
lasted forty minutes intensely and then very
slowly wore away"
Prof. Royce said in conclusion that the
collection of stories was not idle play, and
that the research must, if continued, throw
light on the dark things of mental life.
Telepathy may be a fact. If so, it cannot
resist careful and patient search. 1t may
be a delusion. If SO, however, some of the
classes of facts which the society now have
in hand need most cryingly rigid explana-
ton by some other means than are yet in
vented

Prof. William James of Harvard pre-

DR.. Joseph Warren, the chairman of the
committee that went cunning for mediums,
soon emptied his game bag. There had not
been time to accomplish anything definite.
The committee held eight or ten sittings
with wel-known trance medium, who Is
reported to have given TO many prudent
sitters names and communications OF such
accuracy and fullness that it is supposed
that such results could only be reached by
some occult agency or by some mental
process which is not exactly recognized as
yet. The committee reached this conclu-
sion:
1.-THE phenomena with which we are con-
cerned appears to be OF a We y delicate ma

physical condition Of the medium Is OF I'M

OF mind Of the persons present has marked
effect on the sitting or on the trance cor

were altogether unsuccessful, and some
four OF five sittings had 20 be abandoned.
