For States Attorney.

We can heartily endorse ali that the
Groton Times says of Raymond Smith.
He is one Of the brightest young law
yers in Orange county. The Times
says The northern part of Orange
county is urging the name of Raymond
L. Smith of Wells River as a candidate
for states attorney. Mr.. Smith is a
worthy son Of a worthy sire, and his
claims to the Office are receiving favor
able comment over the county. He
will have to do some pretty hard work
to conduct that office as well rs the
present incumbent, Hale X. Darling,
has done. This will be an opportunity
for him to show OF what metal he is
made, and we doubt not theuonfidence
of the people will be confirmed if he is
elected, This part ofthe county should
receive recognition once in while.

patriotic devotion from this time on
would be complete silence on the sub

legislature to decide the contested
election was entirely proper, though
partisanship was the motive. IL was well
enough for Taylor to guard against
disorder after GOebel's assas sinatiOn by
calling out the military, if he deemed
il necessary, but he had no warrant In
existing conditions for dissolving the

stitution does give the governor author
| ity to adjourn the Legislature during
times of war, instruction or pestilence,
but this was a mere pretext on his part.
The only Instruction there was could
not have prevented the legislature
from transacting Its business as usual.
The truth is, Taylor's own interest lay
in preventing the Democratic legisla-
ture from unseating him, which it
would have done. if allowed to meet.
His purpose was plain when he direct
ed it TO meet in London, which is a
small place in remote corner of the
state, where lawlessness rules and the
Taylor element is strong and bitter

London they will be killed. They will

means to compel enough Democratic
members TO attend so that, with the
Republican minority, he will have a
quorum OF the legislature. 1t isa high
handed procedure and must fail in
the end. The state courts will declare
against the Taylor government. The
federal government has no right to in
terfere, unless great disorder ensues
and then only to maintain the peace
it cannot determine who is the right
ful governor. If Taylor had yielded
to the unjust workings of
the Goebel law, he would have had the
sympathy OF the people the country
over and quite likely would have been
endorsed at the polls next time, lie
has forfeited that sympathy now. Ken
lucky may be counted as safe to the
Democrats from now on. Little SYM
pathy need be wasted on Goebel He
was struck down in a cowardly way,
but he invited his fate by his lack of
honor and scruple 1t is not long
since Goebel killed a political enemy,
whose widow is even now in the mad
house.
Such affairs as these are not so very
and it is unfair to point the
finger Of seorn at Kentucky. 1t is not
many years since similar events have
occurred in Maine, Connecticut and
Kansas. True, the warm. blood of
the Kentuckian makes this one more /
serious and more regrettable. Let us

WASHINGTON, Aug 16.-At the close
of day of intense anxiety the depart

test correspondence between the United
States government and China, constitut-
ing not only a remarkable series of state
papers, but at the same time dispelling
all doubt and certainty as to the Ameri-

ture.
The urgent, almost pathetic appeal of
Ii Hung Chang submitted early in the
day, that the victorious march Of the
allies stop at Tung Chow, and that the
military commanders on the field be in
structed to arrange an armistice at that
point, was met with a response that
Gen. Chaffee already had been given com
plete instructions, empowering him to
carry out an arrangement in concert with
the other commanders for the delivery
of the ministers and persons under their
protection to the relief column not at
Tung Chow, as had been suggested, but
at the imperial city Of Pekin. Further

Tung Chow, twelve miles from Pekin,
whereas the response from the American
government Is, that If there Is to be a
halt, an armistice 1t must be at the walls
of the imperial city.
The conclusions of the government were
announced after an extended cabinet
meeting, and were embodied In an official
statement.
At the same time the authorities gave
out the latest dispatch from Minister
Conger, received today through the Chi
nese minister Mr.. WI. 1t was also en-
Bodied in an official statement.
The appeal of China and the prompt
response of the American government

the circumstances in which the CORE
spondence occurred were Of a peculiarly
