BALTIMORE, Md, Aug. 13.-The
farmers convention met again at 9
O'Clock this morning. The result of
the balloting for officers was the re-
election of the old board, with excep-
tion Of State Lecturer Bradley, who
could not accept the Office for anothe r
term. A Mr. Gulick takes his place.
The final act of theconvention before
it's adjournment was a particular dec

of a resolution, that the Farmers AL

Seized a Collection of Stamns.

A valuable collection Of Cancelled
and uncanceled foreign postage
stamps, consigned by the Postmaster
General of Calcutta, to Mrs. William
Dunn, an enthusiastic philatelist of
this city, were seized and held this
morning by Special Agent Kehoe for
payment of 20 per cent. duty. The
consignment contained stamps from
the Puniaub, the Hill Tribes of the
Himalayas, Beloochistan and Afghan
istan. 1t is suspected by the author
tiles that the Postmaster General of
Calcutta is making quite a stake out
of the Cancelled stamp business, and
that boodling in postofice circles is
quite popular in British India.-CAi-

Mr.. Guenther,s Testimony.

With much typographical display
Boss Wallis organ announces that
Ex-State Treasurer Guenther has
been giving damaging testimony
against himself" The damaging tes-
timony consists in the statement
that when state treasurer he received
and kept the interest allowed by the
| banks on state funds deposited with
| them.
To call this damaging testimony is
mere political clap-trap. Mr.. Guen-
ther has never concealed or desired
to conceal the fact. What he did
was done by every one of his prede-
cessors in office, both Republicans and
Democrats. 1t is now done by most
of the county treasurers of the state,
and there were enough Democratic
county treasurers interested to de-
feat bill introduced in the last leg
islature providing for the deposit of
county funds at the risk of the coun-
ties, the interest on the same to go
to the county treasures.
For all money paid to him for the
state while treasurer Mr. Guenther
accounted to the last cent. Any
state funds that he deposited with
banks deposited at his own risk.
If the bank failed, or was robbed,
he or his securities was bound to save
the state from any loss. Under these
conditions he was entitled to what
interest the banks chose to allow
him.
The correctness of this view of the
subject was acknowledged by the last
legislature, when it enacted law pro-
viding for the deposit Of state money
in banks. relieving the treasurer and
his securities from any responsible
ity for it's loss when SO deposited, and
providing that the interest allowed
on such deposits should 60 into the

A wonderful Mineral Substance.

A new mineral substance, resembling
asphalt, has been discovered in Texas,
which promises to become very useful
to the scientific and industrial world. 1t
is unaffected by heat, acid or alkalies,
and is said to be the most perfect in
sulator yet discovered. 1t may be used
for paint and is a perfect covering for
wood or iron, resisting all the influences
which destroy ordinary paints. AS a
varnish it retains its character under all
conditions. It may be rolled into a tissue
and used for waterproof tents, clothing,
etc.; it makes leather impervious to
water and prevents iron and steel from
rusting.
Professor Hamilton, of the Western
Electric company, finds that wires COW
cred with this substance offer sevenfold
the resistance offered by other wires,
and the results of it's use in electrical
engineering are likely to be very marked.
The material is found in unlimited guam
titles, from two to forty feet below the
surface, and if it proves as useful as ii
promises will be new source of wealth
to Texas. Boston Transcript.

WHY He Changed.

Conductor c., of our early train, was a
church member with reputation of be-
ing good natured and mild hammered to
all. He's changed in appearance since
Saturdays trip. Our train had just start
ed from 3" station when we saw some
distance off an old woman Of the colored
persuasion and of 200 pounds weight,
shiny and nervous, with carpetbag and
umbrella swinging with the energy Of
her great exertion to catch the train.
His heart was touched and he pulled
the ropes for "down brakes" At this
unusual signal every window was pushed
up and an eager head thrust out Of each.
The conductor smilingly encouraged
the would be passenger, and the others
cheered her as she Numbered along in a
full duck gallop. Two lady friends Of
hers (brunettes) stood upon the platform
of the car and frantically beckoned her
approach. When at last she was landed
by the train, and was helped on by the
conductor, three brakemen and boy,
she greeted her two friends with several
affectionate "smacks" and "goodby,
children" then rolling back again to the
ground she turned to our polite conduc-
tor and said, "Thank you, boss" and
waddled away.
That train was started as by one in a
spasm, and the minister read on the fol-
lowing evening prayer request from the
wife of backsliding conductor

Santa Barbara to San Francisco did not
accept the plan of San Diego,H the as
sembly decided that the legislature at
Los Angeles was illegal, because it had
been convened by an unknown author
ity, and that the supreme government
should chose governor. Bancroft,
CAL, 222.)
It is remarkable how clearly Zamo-
rano and his northern friends recognized
the great natural dividing line OF Alta
California.
When Echeandia, Bandini and Pico
heard of Zamorano's revolt" they
roundly denounced the arribefios ior
not submitting to tho San Diego plan,
especially since it had been SO success
full.
On the 9th of May, 1882, Echeandia
and Zamorano met at Santa Barbara
and agreed to not disturb each other in
the government OF their respective
divisions, and thus Northern and
Southern California were politi-
cally, as they are naturally, di-
yided. This occurred after So years Of
Spanish occupation. Will it be till A.
D. 1909 before California is politically
divided by the Americans? 1t should
not be if their boasts of superiority over
their predecessors are true. Already
| forty.three years of the time has passed.
Only twenty remain to beat the His
pano-Americans on time. / believe we
will win the race.
The very day that Zamorano and
Echeandia made their compact at Santa
Barbara, Brigadier-General Jose Pigue-
roa was appointed governor of Alta Cal
| ifornia, but he did not arrive at Monte
rey till January ID, 1888. Zamorano
and Echeandia both yielded their au-
thority, and Governor Figueroa made
Zamorano his secretary, and Northern
and Southern California were unfortu-
nately reunited.
Jose Antonio Carrillo, the California
deputy to the Mexican congress, re.
vived Bandini's old proposition to
make Los Angeles the capital
city, and on May %, 1885, Sc
cured decree of President Barragan to
the effect that. "The town OF Los An
geles in Alta California is erected into a
city. and it will be in future the capital
| of that territory" Don Jose celebrated
the event by having the decree printed
on white satin.
OF course, this was more than Monte
rev could endure, and on October 18th,
following, the town council of that place
met, and denounced it as an Outrageous
measure" Even the Legislature de-
cided to remain at Monterey, the
majority being arribefios. Among other
reasons given by the Montereyans for
retaining the capital was that, sit has a
mild climate and fertile SOIL" The
northern citrus belt had already begun
to put forth it's claims for climate, al
though, according to the admissions of
later residents of that vicinity, as
quoted elsewhere, it does not have the
gilt-edged commodity that exists south
of Point Conception.

WHY People Go to Europe.

The high fares on American railroads
result in sending people to Europe. All
of New England and the Middle states
are full of people who have climbed Alps,
visited Rome, boulevards of Paris, been
all over the United Kingdom and seen
the midnight sun on the coast of Nor
way, and yet who have never been west
of Chicago. They hear of the beauties
of the Pacific coast, they read about the
glories of the Yosemite valley and they
want to go and see them, but when they
learn what it will cost they think they
cannot afford to go farther than Niagara
Falls. After that they go to Europe, and
so year by year the Atlantic passenger
lists have been swelling rapidly until
now they are something stupendous to
contemplate. Bangor (Me.) News.

Colds In Summer.

To talk of guarding against cold in
summer seems absurd, and yet it is az
necessary as in winter. Where the eli
mate is changeable a hot day is often
followed by cool evening or sudden
rainstorm chills the air, or cold wind
springs up, grateful after the heat but
dangerous to those who are thinly clad
unless they are protected from it by
proper covering.
Cotton is a good conductor of heat
and allows it to escape rapidly from the
surface of the body. AS soon as the
surrounding air becomes cooler than the
skin it steals the heat which the body re-
quires for its own needs. A fresh sup
ply of heat must be produced, and thus
the system is overtaxed to supply the
demands of the robber. Flannel is a
bad conductor and guards the tender
body more faithfully, retaining the heat.
