WAGE CONFERENCE
Between Cigar Manufacturers and a
Committee of Garfield Assembly K.
of L.---NOthing Accomplished at
the Meeting,

A committee of cigar and stogie man
ufacturers of this city held a conference
at Trades Assembly Hall yesterday al
ternoon with a committee from Garfield
Assembly X. of l.. The subject under
consideration was the wages of cigar
makers. AS the public knows there has
long been a contention on the part Of
some manufacturers that the wages
paid here are higher than anywhere
else, and that as a result OF the compe
tition with machine made stogies, the
hand made article is being driven out
OF the market. Members Of Garfield
Assembly have resisted all efforts to de-
crease their wages. Manufacturers as
sert that there sales are falling off, not
withstanding a growing market for the
cheap grade smokes.
The matter was discussed in an in
formal way at the conference. The
manufacturers did not present solid
front One or two unhesitatingly de-
clared that wages are low enough, and
they did not see the necessity for a cut.
As a matter Of fact these were not the
concerns which have a large wholesale
trade The situation was discussed by
both sides, and nothing was accom-
plished Before adjournment, repre-
sentatives of the workmen were asked
to bring the matter up for discussion at
the regular meeting of Garfield Assem-
bly,, which will be held tonight.

BITTEN BY A MAD DOG.
Henry Wolfe, of Triadelphia District, Sent
to the PRsteur Institute.

Yesterday afternoon Mr.. Henry
Wolfe, prominent farmer living on
the Chapline hilG and Elm Grove road,
in Tradelphia district. short distance
from the city, left for New York City,
for treatment at the Pasteur Institute
there, as a precaution against the eff
fects of wounds received by the teeth Of
a mad dog, last Sunday afternoon.
The latter part of last week an eight
months old dog, belonging to Mr..
Wolfe. strayed away from home, after
having acted strangely for a day or
two, and there was some suspicion that
the animal had been poisoned. Mr..
Wolfe made quite a search for the dog,
which resulted unsuccesSfully, and
then inserted an advertisement in the
Sunday Register, offering a reward.
Sunday he again went in search OF the
animal, and found it a considerable dis
lance from home, in Marshall county.
Endeavoring to secure the dog, which
was still acting strangely, the animal
flew at Mr.. Wolfe and bit him very Sc
riously on one hand. The dog evidently
did not recognize its master, and was
biting and swapping, and exhibiting
other indications that it was mad. Mr..
Wolfe summoned some of his farmer
friends and the dog was again found
and killed, but it is believed to have
bitten several other dogs. Mr.. Wolfe
had his wounded hand cauterized at
once, and yesterday had the dog cut
open by DR.. Refer and the stomach eX-
amined. There was no indication of
poison. but the stomach contained a
considerable amount Of old carpet,
straw, bark and wood splinters. DR..
Refer was OF the opinion the dog was
mad. and Mr.. Wolfe at once left for New
York for treatment.

OF Republican Candidates in the Country,
Yesterday.
There was a big sale at the Ed. Ray
farm, on Battle Run, about three miles
from Roney's Point, yesterday, and no
less than fifteen Republican candidates
for office were on the ground bright and
early, and they put in the afternoon
whOOping up their respective chances
for the nominations they are after The
candidates present were Messrs. Motfat,

dates for Sheriff: Medick, Wheat and
Robertson. candidates for County

candidates for Circuit Clerk; Bowers,
candidate for Assessor for the City Dis
trict; Waddell and Powell, for Assessor
for the County District, and Garvin and
BOyce, candidates for Prosecuting At
tOrney. This array of talent rounded
up the small bunch Of agriculturalists
who put in an appearance, and as a
result the good housewives of those at
tending the sale sat UP late last night
sewing new buttons on coats and vests,
rigging up new suspenders, exc. It's a
great push, sure thing.

REPUBLICAN, Me

The Republican State Convention
which recently met in Virginia City
tried to disguise its attitude on the
silver question by assuming the grab
Of home rule. There were ONLY five
reside5ts Of counties east of WashOp
in that convention. 1t was made up
principally of non-residents, who did
not dare to call the roll on any qurs-
ton, and a list Of the nonresident
proxies was never given to the public.
The fact that the convention was priu-
cipally composed of nOn-residents Of
the counties they assumed to repre-
sent did not deter them from attempt
log to convey the idea that there are
the only residents of the State.
Commenting on the subject the
Austin Reveille says a gentleman
named Oliver represented Lander
county in the late Republican State
Convention and vas placed on the
Committee on Credentials I'VE would
like to know when Mr.. Oliver became
a resident Of this county? asks the
Reveille.
Though the Reveille asked this
question some days ago, none of the
members Of the convention seams to
have given it the information sought.
1t appears that there was not a resi-
dent Of Lander county in the conven-
ton and that MI. Oliver was recorded
as being from that county for decep-
tive purposes. But what can he
thought OF men that adopt such
methods while prating about home
rule?

New York Sun The popularity Of
Maj. McKinley's financial record is
that it enables his promoters to offer
to the silver Republicans of the west
and south certain votes Of his in Con-
gress, and certain passages from bis
speeches proving that he is ope Of sill
ver's best friends, and at the same
time to exhibit to the sound currency
Republicans Of the eastern states other
votes of the Majors, and other pass
ages from his speeches, as evidence
that the cause Of honest money would
be safe with him in the White House.
This double-action record is not cred
liable to the man who achieved it, but
it is uncommonly convenient while
the conventions are being held.
The underground railway scheme
for New York City has been killed.
1t may be revived at some later date.
but it is doubtful. The enormous
cost Of the work is enough of itself to
preclude it in the opinion Of many
persons competent to form an intel
6gent judgment. 1t is doubtful if the
city needs a railroad system of that
Kind. Experience shows that elevated
roads and rapid surface transit give a
fair solution to the transit problem.

one TO vote or refrain from voting; also re-
ward OF $500 for evidence to convict any one

dating or attempting to intimidate any voter.
Mr.. Hearst of the New York Journal, with the
patriotism and liberality which has character
ized him throughout this struggle, has offered
an additional reward OF $1,000 for the same
purpose. These rewards will result in the de.
lection of any attempt to corrupt or coerce the
voters and will defeat the Republican con-
spiracy to stea1the election.

cousin.
Not long ago handsome young woman

friends.

CHICAGO, ILL, Oct. 31.-M a. Hanna
made his last official appeal to the voters
and denunciation of the combined oppo-
sition as chairman of the Republican Ma
tional Committee tonight as follows:
The earnest support which the loyal citizens
of the United States, irrespective of former
political affiliations, have rendered the Repub-
lican party and the cause of sound money In
the campaign about to end justifes an express
sion from those who have been called upon 70
conduct it.
No campaign since the War of the Rebellion
has presented such grave responsibilities to
those entitled to the elective franchise. The
dangerous principles enunciated by the Chi
cago platform, which proposes not only de-
basement of the currency but the destruction
of the highest judicial authority of the land,
have justified good citizens, irrespective of
pas party preferences, in uniting to rebuke
those who would thus endanger the very foun-
dation of our National organization.
Abandoning their time-honored principles
OF strict construction of the constitution, the
supporters of that platform propose system
which endangers the very life of the constitu-
tion and of the nation itself. The proper en-
fercement of law, recognition of the highest
tribunal of the land, the maintenance of the
high and unvarying standard of our medium
OF exchange, the payment Of obligations, pub
