The Chicago Sentinel says Pow

the old parties.
The Sentinel is wrong in both Of

Men may honestly differ as TO the

and still not subject themselves TO
just criticism. They are certainly
entitled to protection from false
representation. We are most un-
COmpromisingly in favor Of a new
party, and we are also in favor OF
such conservative action in It's forms-

DEATH OF A NOTED EDITOR.

George Jones, Founder of the New
York sTimes,'' Passes Away.
POLAND SPRING (Me.), Aug. 12.-Edi-
tor George Jones of the New York Times
died at O'Clock this morning.
The story of George Jones' life is the
story Of the founding and building up
Of the New York Times, although Jones
had reached the age of forty when he
joined Henry J. Raymond in establish
ing the Times, and had already made his
way to success and competence in other
business enterprises. His earliest inclina-
tons brought him into the field of New
York journalism, and his return to it as
the founder and publisher of the TiDleS
was but the fulfillment of his youthful
ambitions, and from the day when the
first copy of the Times was issued to the
day Of his death Jones has devoted to it,
to the exclusion of all other interests and
affairs, his undivided time and energies.
His success has been the success of the
journal he controlled. His honorable
career and repute were inseparably asso-
ciated with the career and standing of his
newspaper. 1t was in 1888 that Jones
came to New York. Greeley had pre-
ceded him by about two years. 1t was in
the business office Of Horace Greeley's
Tribune that Jones became first connected
with journalism. In their early Journal
istic life they were closely associated.
Mr.. Jones arrived here on July 10th.
Anxiety for his daughter, who was quite
sick, had completely exhausted him.
This and complication of troubles
caused him to grow weaker and weaker.
Tuesday he commenced growing rapidly
worse, and finally died this morning.
The funeral services will be held Fri
day morning at 10 o'clock, at Dr. New
toms Church, Madison avenue and Six
ty-siXth street, New York City

Special to the REcoRD-UNrox.


CHICAGO. Aug. I2.-The long-peuding
question of who is to be Chief of the
Worlds Fair Horticultural Bureau is set
tied at last. Director-General Davis this
evening nominated James Samuels of
Kentucky, as heretofore predicted, and
the nomination was promptly confirmed
by the Board of Control of the National
Commission and Executive Committee of
the local directory. Mr.. Samuels is the
owner of several orchards and nurseries,
and has been employed in horticulture al
most from childhood
Director-G eneral Davis also filled an
other important position by nominating
as Chief of the Department of Liberal
Arts DR.. Selim II. Peabody, vice Pro-
fessor Adams, resigned. This nomina-
ton was also confirmed. DR.. Peabody
was Regent of the University Of Hi
nois for ten years, resigning in June last.
He has been President Of the National
Educational Association for the past year.
The Ne1CS will say tomorrow that
work has been stopped on the fair build
ings. Errors were made by the engin-
eer's department in calculating the strain
to which several buildings will be sub
jected. 1t was the discovery of these
errors that led to Chief Engineer Gott-
ieb's resignation. Nearly all the founda-
tons will have to be made stronger.
Burnham declined to discuss the matter,
but said work would be resumed on some
of the buildings tomorrow. At the
grounds it was stated that operations
would probably be resumed within forty
oiCht hours
