Dear Sir:-I read your speeches In the

about twenty cents. My COUSIN VINO

The Mankato Review says that 1t IS an
evidence of great falling off in the Re
publican party when men like Gen. Baker
and Judges Hanscome and Sackett of St.
Peter leave it. The fact Of the matter
is Gen. Baker rendered his services to
the Republican party not over a month
ago in order to reek revenge onDonnelly
and Judges Sackett and Hanscome are
hot because the Republican Party hasn't
seen tit to give them a life lease on of
fee You must go to the bottom Of
every mans actions before you lay up
charges against the Republican party,

Why don't the Democratic orators tell
you why their platform contains such an
outrageous feature as that demanding
the repeal Of the 10 per cent tax on state
banks2 They know that it would mean
a return to the rocky period in our his
tory when state banks hourished to the
detriment Of business and the great adj
vantage Of the individual owners, and
they know that the people will not
countenance such step backward.
Nevertheless the clause is there and it
was placed there by the Southern wing
Of the Democratic party as represented in
Chicago.

Easton Change Indignant


Easton'(M y NJ E. Church is very much
aRitated over the removal of the Rev. J. a.
B. Wilson, D. D., formerly presiding elder
of Dover district. from the pastorate of that
church. As a consequence Presiding Elder
Alfred Smith of Easton district has cancelled
five appointments for preaching and quar-
terly conferences at other places, aud on
Saturday he went to Easton to pour oil on
the troubled waters aud calm bad feeling {
possible.
DR.. Wilson was given a rousing reception
by the people of Eastou on his arrival there,
and his first sermon pleased them. Imme.
diately after his arrival he also began to
make pastoral visits at the rate of twenty
FIVE per day and this further pleased his con-
gregatiOn The members of the church
were preparing to receive Dr.. Wilson's
family, which was still in Dover, aud ex-
pected them to remove on Thursday, when
the news came that DR.. Wilson had been
transferred to New York City.
The indignation is general, and is based
on what the congregation thinks is unfair
treatment Of them. DR.. Wilson, they say,
should not have been sent to Easton when
it had previously been decided upon to trans
fer him to another conference. Besides,
they claim that Dr. Wilson's transfer leaves
them without a minister and hey don't
know who they will get They know moth
ing, some of them claim, ofthe plan to send
Dr. Wilson to Easton temporarily. It was
reported that he would be transferred 70
New York and had asked to be transferred,
but he and his friends had denied such ru-
mors and statements, aud DR.. Wilson had
started into the work precisely as if he was
going to remain there. They believed lie
was going to remain there. They believed
he was going to remain aud now are COM
PEELED to take some other man who may
not be as acceptable to them as DR.. Wilson
was
Easton is one of the best charges on the
Easton district, ani it is hoped by those in
authority that the dissatisfaction will subside
and everything move smoothly now that
Elder Smith has gone there.

convened at II 80 O'Clock a. M. with devo.
tional exercises, and after the transaction of
some miscellaneous business adjourned uns
til O'Clock p. m +, when the address of
welcome was made by Miss 1follie Caldwell
the president of the local union; followed by
a response by Miss Vandever and an address
by Rev Mr.. Maxwell the reside ut minister
The remaining exercises of the afternoon
consisted efsiugiug, remarks by the county
president, the reading of paper on Scienss
tific and Temperance Instruction by miss
Jennie Mcintosh, paper on Juvenile Wsrk
by Mrs. Marguerite Green, Sabbath Obserss
vance by Mrs Helen L. Bullock of Elmira
N. J. After this the convention adjourned
until the time for the evening session, 7.3o
p. M. The closing evening session COM
prised devotional exercises with music by

Last week the resident sturgeon fisherman
of this place were busily engaged with prep
arations for the approaching seasons work,
and after gettipg their nets and boats in
proper trim for an onslaught upon this prof.
table fish, made quite formidable exodus
from our wharves for the vicinity of Bowers
Beach, where they will live during the FISH,
ing season. The roe of the sturgeon is sold
generally to one man, a native Of Germany,
who has packing establishment at Bowers.
It is prepared by means of sieving the ovula
proper from the membranous fibre surround
ing it and applying salt copiously, after
which it is exported as caviare, to Germany
and Russia; where it brings such prices as
to place it only with in the reach af the pa
trician gentry Ofthose far off countries. The
price per fish obtained here varies accord:
ing to the scarcity of the catch, yet it is not
uncommon for the sturgeon fisherman TO OBJ.
tain five or six dollars each for the roe fish
and in some season even more than this.
The cold weather Of the last week has aps
piled the brakes to the operations Of the
niarket gardeners and truckers here about,
aud they do not apparently enjoy the pcts
ure of December climbing into the foweiy
lap of April As each wear goes by there
seems to be more and more enterprise tx'
hibited by our farmers in the production Of
early vegetables and they are beginning to
perceive the fact that even small quantity
ofthe very early varieties of garden produce
marketed little in advance of their regular
time, will yield more solid profit than
larger crop will do later on, when superb
buudance occasions glut in the market.

water, was Isaac 5. Truitt; butlike many
others fmankind, Mr.. Truitt knows a

complete their work for him he will be
one of the largest private consumers Of
water in Milford, and his well appointed
home will have every convenience. Water
closets, bath tub with hot d cold shower
bath attachment, stationary wash stands,
sinks in kitchen, hydrabts in yard, wash
pave on the street, and a private under
drain are composed in the work. We be-
lieve that every family in Milford that
can will be using the town water in less
