The official call for the Republican State
League Convention, TO be held at Saratoga Sep
tcmber "a, will be found in another column.
We invite the attention of every Republican
Club man to it. The meeting will be one Of
special importance to the League and to the
party. The business to be transacted includes
the election Of officers, involving a complete
reorganization Of the association, the selection
of delegates to represent the State in the Ma
tional Convention at Nashville or Chattanooga,
and the consideration Of means by which the
Clubs can best assist the party in the approach
ing canvass. 1t is particularly desirable there
fore, that every Republican Club in the State
should be represented in the convention. TO
be sue, only Clubs that belong to the League
will be entitled to admission, but this fact need
not prevent any local association from sending
delegates. Let them 60 with authority to re-
quest the admission Of their Club into the State
League, and their request will be granted most
cheerfully. The initiation fee has been re-
duced from $50 TO $40, so as to accommodate
the smallest Club.
There is no valid reason why every Repub-
lican association, from the great Union League
of this city to the youngest organization in the
State, should not take part in the convention
and join in making the League one Of the great
est political factors in the Empire State. The
Democracy has powerful ally in the Liquor
Dealers Association; why should not the party
Of progress have more potent and worthy
assistant in its young voters as they arc repre-
sented by the League?

Itfis a well-establshed maxim in maritime
circles that vessels at anchor have the right
of way. Provided, of course, that they anchor
where; they have perfect right to do SO. Mr..
Gerry claims that the Electra was within the
propsn limits when the Providence bore down
upon her in yesterday mornings fog, carried
away her bowsprit and smashed lot Of china.
Theseaptain of the Providence thinks the yacht
was in a very risky place-an opinion which
seems borne out by the result, as the captain
has an, excellent reputation. The Electra ap-
pears Stof have the habit of getting as close as
possiblefto the danger-line, and ought TO re-
torn without delay.

The cold reported from Wyoming the last two
mornings t26 degrees) is conspicuously more
severe than any noticed elsewhere in the country
last month. Several times during August the
mercury ranged low in the forties, in Northern
Vermont, Northern Michigan, and near the Mani
toban boundary. At Washable, August 20, it fell
TO 80. Light frosts have occurred more than
once in the last few weeks; but canberries,
tobacco, hops and some other crops may fare
rather worse in the Northern States east Of the

EXcPreSident Legitme has arrived in this
nty ana is about to proceed to France, after
which his movements appear to be somewhat
uncertain. He is not indisposed to talk about
affairslin Hayti but what he has to say throws
no new light upon the situation which led to
his resignation and fight. Legitime is careful
to assert, however that his departure from
Port au-Prince was voluntary and that he
chose to go away because he did not desire to
be the cause of further bloodshed. Very likely
he could have held out few days or weeks
longer against the forces of Hyppolite, but his
ultimate defeat was inevitable, and he had the
good sense to yield to the irresistible logic of
events.

IL is stated on what seems to be good authority
that food prepe rations for infants to the amount
of sl0,O00,050 are annually sold IN the United
States. According to one Of the speakers at the
recent meeting of the Association for the Advance
ment of Science most of these products are un-
wholesome" and the Government was urged to
take some action IL the truth was told at Toronto,
here is an evil Of prodigious proportions, and ener-
eetic measures should be taken to make an end Of
il. The lives of thousands Of infants are depend
emf on various prepared foods" and It is of the
utmost Importance that these articles should be
pure nutritious and wholesome The purchaser
must accept them on faith, unless he can procure
an analysis and make certain that the food he
buys is what it purpdrts to be. If a slaughter
of the innocents is going day by day, it ought
to be not only known, but stopped.

A celebration of more than common interest
took place yesterday on the grounds of the old
Log College, in Bucks County, Penn The old
Log College was the cradle from which the
great institution at Princeton sprang and yes
terday's exercises were in reality commemo-
rative Of the establishment Of Presbyterianism
in this country. The projectors Of the cele-
bration were fortunate in securing the attend
ance and participation of President Harrison
Postmaster-G General Wanamaker and Governor
Beaver, in addition to a number Of eminent
clergymen. General Harrison made one Of the
happy little speeches SO characteristic Of him on
occasions of this nature. The attendance was
large and the celebration was a success in every
sense Of the word.
