split delegation from Cuyahoga coun
ty The Judicial nomination is enter
ing largely into the struggle for the
control of the new Republican County
Central committee. The supporters of
V. A. Taylor for the Craftsmanship of
the new committee are also supporting
Judge Lamson. Miner c. Norton is
the McKisson. candidate. and certain
ones of both factions favor the nom-
nation of l.. Ii. Winch.
Each delegate to the Judicial conven-
ton from Cuyahoga county has re-
ceived letters from Judge L. l.. Mar
win, as follows:
81 see that you have been selected
as one of the delegates to the conven-
ton which is to nominate candidate
to succeed me on the Circuit bench.
"As you know, I am on the last year
of my first term, and naturally l de-
sire to succeed myself. Heretofore no
member of this bench has failed Of a
second term, and am greatly in hopes
that the tine-honored custom will not
be departed from in this instance.
Each of the other members of the
bench is resident Of Cuyahoga coun-
ty, and it seems that it would be en-
tirely proper that one should be from
another county, although the delega-
tion from Cuyahoga county considera-
bly, outnumbsrs the aggregate delega-
tion from the other counties.
"Of course, unless l am a suitable
man for the place ] ought not TO be
nominated. If am, it would seem as
though my residence in Summit county
and the fact that have had but one
term should count IN my favor. AS |
am the only man who was soldier
during the Civil war VINO has been
elected to this bench ! have feeling
that this should also count in my ia
vor.'

WHAT DIR. sruBBs SAYS.

The Jouroal is in Receipt OF a let.
ter from DR.. Stabb from which we
take the following extract:
Il refer, viz, to your charge that a
a corporation, or in other words, the
Southern Pacific company,has a hand
in the affairs OF the University and
has something to do with Professor
Jackson's resignation. What has &C.
Cured to change your present atti-
tude toward the President Of the Un-
iversity it is impossible for me TO ex-
PLAIN to myself. must wait for fur
ther light. This feature Of the at
tack is SO malicious that l feel justi-
fed in meeting it in the only way an
honorable man can meet such alta cks
viz 4. by action in court, that will nec-
essarily bring all the facts to light.
l therefore have asked Judge Cheney
to sec whether there is cause for legal
action in thus particular feature OF
your newspaper attack
II the Journal Is correctly informed
Cheney has been looking up suits
againat the Journal for some time.
Should he bring a suit against the
Journal he will not draw the jury
panel or be on the bench to try the
case.
The Doctor was evidently very
much out Of temper when he wrote
the above extract, as his name has
not been in any way connected with
the Southern Pacific, except It may
DO theoretically. Should it be true
that the Journal has connected the
name OF n citizen OF Nevada with the
Southern Pacific company, it would
not be malicious, deiamstory or libel
ou6 in this State, because it is deem.
ed honorable to be SO identified

The heaviest fall OF snow that ever
took place in England occurred in
1915 The snow commenced falling
on the 10th Of January and continued
every day until the 18th OF March fol.
lowing. 1t covered the earth to such
a depth that passengers, both horse
and foot. passed over gates hedges
and walls which had been obliteraicd
by the white sheet. On the 18th OF
March it began to decrease and SO
little by little consumed and wasted
away till the 18th Of May, for then all
the heaps and drifts Ind disappeared
except IL upon Kinder Scout which
lay until Whitsun week.
a heavy fall occurred in Scotland
in 1620 the SNOW falling for thirteen
day and nights with little or no in
Permission.
One OF the heaviest falls on a
single day occurred on February 81,

Cape IIntteras Storms.

According to Professor Garriott,
chief OF the forecasting division OF
tho Weather Bureau. the record Of
the loss Of ships and lives entered an
nually against tho t%reacherous coast
along Cape Hatteras is not caused by
unusually severe storms in that vi
cinity, ms is generally supposed. The
records Of years show that there Is a
greater wind velocity on the average
Mt Chicago than Mt Cape Hatteras.
In fact, Chicago is the windiest point
in the country. The very severe
weather at Hatteras is due to the fact
that it lies in tho track OF what are
called the southwest storms: that is,
storms that advance from the south.
west and move northeastward. They
arc called northeasters Oh the At
lantic coast, and are the severest OF
storms. But Capo Hatteras is n
dangerous place for shipping, moro
because OF it's dangerous coast than
because of the storms winch pass in
that vicinity. Tho wind velocity at
Block Island, Narragansett and other
places along the New England coast
is just n high rs at Hatteras, and
they are as much exposed rs Halter
rs to the wind force. Their coast is
not so dangerous, however, because
there are convenient and safe hnr-
bors. Vessels of Hatteras nre 80 far
removed from a hnrbor OF refuge that

Cotton and Gold.

The worlds output OF gold in 1898
was 2SI,429.0 900 and that Of the Unit
ed States was S6i.403,000. The value
OF the cotton crop OF the United
States, that is the raw cetton in 1897,
was 1919, i9l ,4l2. The cotton crop in
the United States is therefore IL per
cent greater than the gold output OF
the world, and five times as great Us
the gold output OF the United States.
To this great value, however, we must
add the value OF the seed products
and We have "a total something like
three hundred aud sixty million dol
lars. But the grand total is not yet
reached, for we are working 1870
coo spindles Ill the United States in
maKing cotton cloth. The output of
these, minus the cost OF the raw cot,
ton consumed, must be added before
we have the grand total OF the value
Of the product and OF the industry tC
the people. Then, again. are the
print works-we must not forget the
print works--which decorate these
cloths IN such attractive fashion that
they make most bewi!dering garment'
for our fair; SO bewildering that the
old-fashiOned among us, the old,
fashioned just not old enough tc
have lived in the days OF periwig ant
short clothes, have no more gallant
comment to make on woman who
pleases them than She is a fiue bit o
