VIII Control Convention

The Board Of Election Commissioners
yesterday commenced the official count
of the returns in Tuesdays primary
elections and will conclude it's labors
to-day. Previous to beginning the
count the board canvassed the returns
from the 109th precinct in the Forty
fourth Assembly District, which had
not been included in the results. The
regular Democratic ticket pOlled forty
one votes and the Democratic League
twenty-seven, making a total in the
district of 2S3 for McNab's ticket and
241 for the Horses and Carts.
The Calls statement yesterday morn
ing that McNab had won ninety-six and
O'Brien seventy-tWo of the 1853 dele
gates to the local Democratic conven-
tiOn is correct. There is nothing but hot
air in the claim that the Horses and
Carts Will organize the convention.
James H. O'Brien claims delegates in
the Thirty-ninth and Fortieth districts
who were vigorously opposed on cleo
ton day by Horse and Cart forces.
O'Brien was asked yesterday to name
two or three delegates in these dis
tricts who would go into the Demo-
cratic League caucus, but declined to
give names on the ground that it would
expose the delegates TO pressure from
the County Committee The facts are
that O'Brien's following in the conven-
ton will not exceed sixty eight and he
may encounter a deal of trouble in
holding that number in line. The poll
ticianS, however, agree that he put up
a good fight and compelled the Demo-
cratic machine Office holders and
attaches to hustle around and produce
the sinews Of war.

A philosopher has said that true edu.
cation of boys is TO teach them what
they ought to know when they become
men"
First.-To be true and to be genuine,
No education is worth anything that
does not include this. A man would
better not know how to read and be
true and genuine in action rather than
be learned in all sciences and in all
languages and be at the same time
false in heart and counterfeit in life.
Second To be pure in thought, Ian
guage ana life-pure in mind and body,
Third To he unSeltish; to care for
the feelings and comforts Of others; to
be generous, noble and manly. This
will include Il genuine reverence for the
aged and for things sacred,
Fourth To be SELF reliant and self
helpful even from childhood; to be in.
dustrious always and self supporting
at the earliest possible age. Teach
them that all honest work is honorable;
that an idle life of dependence ON 9th.
ers is disgraceful.
+. When Il boy has learned these things,
when he has made these ideas part OF
him, however poor or however rich, he
has learned the most important things
he ought to know.

that the new boat fund now amounts

"And don't forget Duluth" Col
Agen said this week. "rhe jobbers
of the latter city have come to the
rescue in great shape. They didn't
need any urging either They saw it
was good thing and responded in n
liberal manner, On Tuesday alone
they pledged more than $500, and
Wednesday the committee working
on the Duluth side again met with
generous responses" Col Agen says
at present there seems no doubt but
that work will commence on the new
boat within the next ten or fifteen
days. This means that the Superior
shipyards will resume business; it
means that Superior and Duluth
will own their own boat next summer.
