NEW YORK DEMOCRATS
THE ANTI-SNAP CONVENTION
PEOPLE AT BUFFALO,
Pass Resolutions COndemning the
February Convention that En-
dOrsed Hili-The Tammany
Crowd Thoroughly Roasted.

The following preamble and resolu-
tions were passed by the Buffalo meet
ing called April to protest against the
snap convention held in Albany Feb.
rurary ~, which endorsed Hill as
New York's candidate for the Demo-
cratic nomination for president:
We, Democrats of the county of
Erie, in mass meeting assembled,
reafirm our loyalty to Democratic
principles and to the Democratic
party. Representing the great Demo-
cratic majority which has been dis
franohised through the INSCRIPTIONS
acts of few unprincipled politicians,
we meet here to give public express
ion to our determination that the will
of the majority in the party shall
henceforth be regarded. Of the 20,
600 men who voted the Democratic
ticket i'll Erie county, last November,
les than one thougand were represent.
ed by the delegates to the Albany
Snap convention. Less than one
thousand, all told, attended the one
hundred and forty-two primaries
which elected the Erie delegates to
that convention, and less
than two hundred at
tended, excluding those holding office
or promise of office under the state
administration, and excluding rela-
tives of men holding such an Office or
such a promise. We publicly refused
TO attend, because we had within four
months twice attended like primaries
only to find that our delegates elected
by more than ten to one were cast
aside by self-constituted and reck-
less party manager. Reports from all
parts of the state prove that the same
vicious practices which obtained here
were obtained in every other county
in the state.
AS result, packed mid-winter
convention was held which represent.
ed not the party, but mere faction
in the party, temporarily in control of
its machinery. These proceedings en-
tailed upon US disaster after dis
aster in county after county, city after
city and town after town during the
recent spring elections. The inevi-
table result will be that unless a
remedy be found, and found speedily,
great body of Democrats throughout
the state will be driven from the party,
or at the best, made lukewarm, in
stead OF enthusiastic supporters of it's
candidates.
We believe that if the chief partici-
pant in and promoter of these methods
which we condem, were today before
the people of this state for their suf-
frages, he would be buried under an
adverse majority of two hundred
thousand. At the same time, we be.
lieve that any other man, not sus-
pected of being under his control, and
fairly nominated upon a Democratic
platform, can carry the state by more
than twenty-five thousand.
We believe that the proper way to
correct party abuses is by action with.
in the party; and as one step to that
end, the Democratic electors of the
state have been asked to assemble in
primaries fairly called and fairly man
aged, and select delegates to fair
convention, with full confidence that
the national convention will take such
action as wisdom and sound policy
shall dictate,
| In view Of these premises, it is

Height of Cruelty.

Nervous women seldom receive the
sympathy they deserve. While often
the pictures of health, they are con-
stantly ailing. To withhold sympathy
from these unfortunates is the height
of cruelty. They have weak heart,
causing shortness of breath, Auttering,
pain in side weak and hungry spells,
and finally swelling of ankles, oppres-
sion, choking, smothering and droosy.
DR.. Miles New Heart Cure is Just
the thing for them. For their nerv.
BUSINESS, headache, weakness, ETC., his
Restorative Nervine is unequaled.

A Thrifty Friend.

''I had an unpleasant experience when l first came west to grow up with the country" said Joseph He'll man at the Lindell. 'I went to Kansas and visited the principal towns in search of field of labor. It chanced that big circus made the dates that l did, and l was brought into frequent contact with the attaches. When I reached Topeka my available assets consisted of good suit of clothes and $50. When I awoke at the hotel next morning my pantaloons and money were both missing. 1 was young, inexperienced and painfully bashful. 1 sent for the landlord, told of my situation, and asked him what 1 should do. Do, said he fercely, the best thing you can do is to get out of this hotel, pantaloons or no pantaloons, or I'll turn you over to the police. You've been poirted out to me as a hanger-on of the circus. You can't work any of your games on this house. Now git I was frightened almost into convulsions. I imagined that if 1 was arrested I would be sent to the penitentiary, so 1 concluded to make sneak down back street and try and gain the friendly shelter of the wooos. 1 was slipping down stairs when l met man coming up. He stopped me. l told him my story and he took me to his room, gave me pair of pants and $50 bill. Go and settle your score and bring me half the change he said. I did so and felt that I had found a sure enough angel. A year afterward 1 met him in Kansas City and again thanked him for his kind ness. Imagine my surprise when he told me that the $50 bill was made from a five and ten, and that after dividing the change with me he was still ahead. "-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

How One Young Man Was Brought to Hi,
 Senses.


 Senses.
 A prompt action and few sea sonable words at the beginning of a young mans career often produce a lasting effect on his after life. Many years ago, when Samuel Phillips, of Andover, Mass, afterwards lieu tenant-governor of the state, was a student at Harvard College, owing to some boyish freak he left the col lege and went home.
 His father, a grave man, of sound mind, strict judgment and few words, was greatly disturbed by the seeming lack of stability in his son s character. After learning the facts he deferred expressing any opinion until the next day.
 At breakfast he said. addressing his wife:
 My dear, have you any cloth in the house that would be suitable for making Sam frock and trous- ersi"
 "Yes, indeed," she replied.
 "Well, then," said the old gen. tleman, ''you may follow me, my son"
 As they approached the com mon he ventured to ask, "What are you going to do with me, fatherf'
 "Oh," replied the old gentleman, apparently reused from 8 pleasant reverie, speaking in a cheerful tone, 'I am going to bind you apprentice to the blacksmith over wonder. You can take your choice," added Mir. Phillips, firmly, as he saw the look of consternation on his sons face. "Return to college and stay there, or you must work. {"
 'I had rather return," replied Samuel, meekly.
 "Very well," said the old gentle man, turning toward home immedi- ately.
 His son did return to college, con fessed his fault, applied himself to study, and became a much respected man. And his father never regret ted the day when he offered Samuel such an unpleasant alternative, al- though he often admitted that he "might have been a little put to it if Sam had elected to follow the black smiths trade"
 But he would have held to his word in any case.-Ex.

Learn to Take the Pnlse.

Every mother should know how te take her child's pulse, and this is easily accomplished by passing one or two fingers down on the front of the arm, frsm the base of the thumb to little below the wrist. With some practice there is no danger of mistake. Take the number of beats for the entire minute, for frequently there is an irregularity that can be discovered only by care ful observation. The re- spirations can be obtained by watching the rise and fall of the chest; if that is not sufficient, by placing the hand there. A self registering clinical thermometer is necessary for taking the tempera- ture, which is generally obtained by placing the end of the tube contain ing the mercury under the tongue, and keeping it there with the mouth closed, from three to five minutes. From 98.4 degrees to go degrees is a normal temperature; 100 de- grees or over indicates fever; 101 degrees to 103 degrees is fever to a moderate amount while 105 degrees, except in rare instances, is danger ous. In childhood the purse varies from 120 in early infancy to 90 in a child of 8 or 9 years old. In the middle life it ranges from 65 to 75 and is apt to be more rapid in women than in men. In infancy respirations are often 30 or over; in children, from 20 to 23 or 24 in adult life they are quite constant at from IT to 20. For an adult the proportions are: Temperature, 9S.6 degrees; pulse, 75; respiration, 18.-Christian Union.

The Plea.ure. of Dying.

Entbanasia is not an old word as applied to medical science, but it has a meaning which of late has come to be of great importance to every one. Death was formerly considered a great struggle, and vivid, almost shocking descriptions of the phenomena of dying were given in such exaggerated forms that none cared to think of the eventfnl moments when death should come to them. Euthanasia,
 or the pleasures of dying, takes the very opposite view, and proclaims death to be easy and painless.
 Those who have watched at hundreds of deathbeds have noted that death was easy, and officers in battle have testified that the last moments of dying soldiers were painless ones. People who have been in the jaws of wild beasts in India, and have been rescued at the last moment, testify that a numbing calmness was experienced after the first sharp painful snap of the teeth upon them. Iu fact, the approach of every crsature's fate brings with it kindly preparation when life is

MILWAUKEE, July 9.-Resolu- tions have been passed by tho Elss4ss::;,,r. ated Trades C-..saoini of this city, de- elaring ''that Pinkerton thugs must go, and we approve the action of the workmen at Homestead in repulsing an invasion of their heaztiful city by these lawless thugs.
 That we ask congress to pass laws against the crying evil, and a copy of these resolutions will be sent to Congressman Mitchell and the national secretary of the Anal gamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers"
 Similar resolutions have been passed by workers at Columbus, O., and mass meeting will be held to- night at Indianapolis to add to the general denunciation.

"rhe Mother of God J

The phrase "Mother of Godv we have been accustomed to. It has an historical setting which relieves it's meaning, and which was never intended to bear the perverted sense which it took on in the course of ages. At the time of the Nestorian controversy in the fifth century, as to the two natures and the person ality of Christ, the church council allowed the title ascribed to Mary, "the Mother of God" The object was not to add honor to the mother, but to maintain the true doctrine as to the undivided personality of the son. But in time the particular ob- iect of the decision was we'll nigh forgotten in it's being made to serve in magnifying the mother, and this at the expense of the son. In the development of doctrine the Papal Church adopted the dogma that Mary herself had been immediately conceived, and the festival of "the immaculate conception" was insti- tuted. This did not win entire ac- ceptaRee. s.. Bernard, of the twelfth century, the greatest light of his age, opposed 1t as an innova- ton derogatory to the dignity of Christ, declaring, what now be- comes a fitting commentary on the late scene in New York, that the church might as well appoint com memorating festivals for the con ception of tho mother, grandmother and great grandmother of Mary Mid Continent (Presbyterian).

 Well, I can't say we are very well satisfied with being driven out as we were by the strikers, but oth- erwise we have nothing to reproach ourselves for"
 If the Pinkerton Detective Agen- cy is recruiting men for service at Homestead or anywhere else it is acting with great caution and se- lecting only such persons as are personally known to officials here.
