 We, the delegates from the several towns com prising the 24th senatorial district, in convention assembled, declare our hearty en- dorsement of the candidates nominated at our several republican conventions state officers, congressman, sheriff, also of the plat forms of principles adopted by these several nominating bodies and feel that we add to the high character of our ticket in placing upon the same ticket the name of our present honored senator, George E. Keeney of Somers. | pubicans present was very strong in favor of Senator Keeney's re-nomination, and un- doubtedly nothing better could have been done.
 Following the senatorial convention the delegates chosen from Stafford and Union convened, and by unanimous vote renomi- mated for judge of probate for the Stafford district James F. Chamberlin, who has SC we'll filled the office for the past six years. Congressman Simonds is hardly likely to speak in Stafford in this campaign, the time being short and many towns in his district calling for visit. He is much fatigued by the labors of session nearly year in length, during which time the health of his wife has compelled the breaking up of the home es- tablished in Washington, and the removal ot Mrs. s. to the farm homestead in Collins vile. Mr. s. has been north but two or three times, and then for only very brief visits, dur ing the session, and having been 8 working member, and in conduct of important busi- ness, both from his committee connections, and from the burdens put upon him by oth- CTS, and by his interest in the copyright bill and the tobacco duty, the year has been any thing but recreative to him. Many friends will hope, for the sake of both, that Mrs. Si monds' physical condition will speedily change for the better.

 THERE is no need of higher prices fo any class of goods made in America, and W, don't believe there will be any permanent in crease Manufacturers can make money a the old prices, and only ask for ready sales As for quality, American goods are goot enough for Americans until protection shal enable them to bring up the quality. Those whose hunger for 'simported, wares,' hay, compelled American manufacturers to pu ; foreign labels on their goods can go on in th' same old way, crying down the products O their own country.
