REPUBLICAN COMMITTEE
To Nominate Candidates for the Consti
 tutional Convention.

To Nominate Candidates for the Consti-
 tutional Convention.
 A meeting of the Republican County Central Committee was held at the office of Greene X Wood yesterday afternoon to consider the advisability of calling a convention to nominate candidates for the Constitutional convention.
 The prevailing sentiment was opposed to the expense that would be incurred in calling convention, it being be- lieved that the committee, having a member in every precinct in the county, could do the work equally as well and would be fully as. representative body in carrying out the wishes of Repnbli- cans as would delegates specially se- iected to make the nomination. In ac- cordance herewith general meeting of the committee was called for Monday, April P, at 2 o'clock r. N., when it is hoped that every member will be pres ent. The following are the members of the committee from the various pre- cincts.
 Phenix-Dr. Scott Helm, w. S. Mills, N. A. MorforJ, w. A. Hancock, l.. J Wood, F. w. Gatke and Il. L. Whar- ton.

occur in Litch6eld. If to & Litchfielder should come the accident of & fortune he would regard it but as an ornament to the name of Litchfield. Some orphic man has stated as & fact that public office is public trust. How much more to the point is the fact that Litchfield fortune
 is Litchfeld trust
 That in this particular thing the bur gesses will take the severest action is as- sured.> Most fortunately for the crisis the present burgesses are men of heroic stamp, who will do their duty fully and proudly
 and in the spirit of Plymouth Rock and Faneul hall.
 Alssl alas that the two penny business of a one penny life should come to in- terrupt the flow of this letter. Let pious and good men take up the thread and fol- low it out. Not even time to but mention two things which are stirring Litchfield to the very center. First. the advent of the summer girl. Think of summer girl in Litchfeld. But she has been here and proposes coming back. It is enough to knock the breath all out of one's body ButSwhat is to be donet In this emer- gency appeal to the burgesses were hope less. They could never be made to under stand the nature, the purposes. and the uses of the summer girl. They know but of two kinds of womsnhood, the one to be married, the other to be burned. The second question is equally absorbing. Can it be that all these years Litchfield has not known how to spell its own nsmea May kind fortune soon bring leisure for these awful themes PERIANpER.

WHY CHINAmEN EMIGRArE,

An officer of the Dutch colonial govern ment has prepared for the Geographical Society of Amsterdam report on the sub ject of Chinese emigration. He finds the main cause of this movement of popula- ton not in the excessive number of in- habitants in China, but in the poverty of the soil in the provinces from which the emigration is taking place. These prov inces are in the eastern part of China, where the country is mountainous and the valleys, which alone are capable of af- fording sustenance to men, are almost bare Of vegetation and the rainfall is slight. Wood is scarce and very dear. For these reasons the people are driven to seek subsistence elsewhere, and the move ment to the English, Spanish and Dutch colonies, to California, Australia, Indo- China and Cochin China is in the aggre- gate very considerable.
 The opinion is strongly of the opinion that if China would engage in the work of constructing railroads and improving other means of transportation the emigration which for some years has been giving so much concern to the United States and the British colonies would cease. The re- sources of the interior of the empire, which are by no means deficient, would be developed, an abundant subsistence for the entire population would be pro duced, the produce would be distributed so easily that famines would rarely occur, and the inhabitants of the exhausted and sterile districts would find employment in those parts of the country that are more highly favored by nature. The Dutch official does not doubt that China could support many more than it's present num- Der of inhabitants if it's resources were made available by the means in common use in the western world
 Modern progress has thus far made little impression on China. It seems cer- tain, however, that railroads and the telegraph will yet make their way in that benighted country, as they have in others.

their places and the hunt begins. The seal may be swimming at the surface, or perchance he is sleeping. The boat is pulled quietly toward the animal. In nine cases out of ten the seal takes alarm and dives out of sight before the boat is brought close enough to use the guns with effect, and in no case does the hunter shoot unless he feels sure of his quarry. The seal when shot at once commences to sink, and the boat has to be pulled rapidly to it, when the body is "gaffed" and hauled aboard. This is repeated as long as seal can be seen. In man y cases only one or two will be killed during a two days hunt, while at other times as many as twenty will be taken.

THOSE REsIGNATIONs.

The refusal of Messrs. Adler and Howarth to play any longer with the other members of the board of education strikes us as decidedly puerile. They couldn't have what they wanted, or thought belonged to them, therefore they wouldn't have any thing. They must have known, and they undoubtedly did know, that their wishes concerning the makeup of the commit tees wouldn't be carefully respected. If we are not mistaken there was time when they didn't pay much attention to the wishes of some of the other members had the power and they used it. Such. is life, and especially life in the board of education, and when the turn was against them they did not we'll to be angry. The mighty seven didn't, it is true, show them much courtesy, but, as Major Strong particularly and plainly shows, Messrs. Adler and Howarth haven't over flowed with consideration for their fellow members in time past. If there was a con- ference held to make up the committees as oA0y "OAC h4ooo aP AoeaiiS Woulo uafc been gained by inviting the two to take part in it, and nothing would have been lost. The result would have been the same. And, further, it is not plain to the outsider why the appointments were so displeasing as the resignations indicate Mir Adler was certainly given good place on the Committee on Schools, and Mir. Howarth could do good service as mem- Der of the Committee on Supplies. We do not see any good reasons for the resignations. It would have been better, we think, for them to have kept on serv- ing the district until their terms expired naturally.
