WHERE WAS TIE PARTY soana
In Maine, cay the Republicans Of That
state.

State.
Bangor, Me-, Special In New York Sun.
The republicans OF this state be-
iieve that the birth OF the republican
party took place In Strong. Me- and
not in jackson, Mich as republicans
in the west assert
The assertion OF the Maine republic
cans Is based on the fact that the
strong convention, which was held on
August 7, 1854, was the first regular
assemblage OF delegates to any con-
vention which recognized the word re-
publican as the title OF the party.
According TO the assertions of the
Maine republicans. the meeting held In
jackson, Mich, July g. 1854, was no
more than a gathering OF the anti
slavery elements OF the state In re-
sponse to call for a mass meeting
to take counsel regarding future ac-
tion. The Michigan mass meeting
passed resolutions. declaring those
present as members Of the republican
party, a name suggested by Horace
Greeley In the previous winter
The argument presented by the
Maine republicans Is that when the
prohibition and anti-sIayery wings Of
the democratic party met In Portland
June Z, 1854, ana nominated Anson r..
Morrill, for governor, the presiding Of
ficer. G. J. Talbot Of oxford county
spoke Of forming q coalition with the
old Wings and organizing the republic
can party, dwelling upon the name at
some length. At the close OF his ad-
dress the convention arose and gave
three cheers for the republican party.
Names claim to having been the
birthplace OF the republican party has
been held by leading republicans for
years. On August Z, 1884, when James
10. Blaine was a candidate for pres
ident and Maine was all on fire with
enthusiasm, the 30th birthday Of the
republican party was celebrated at
Strong with a great barbecue. Among
the speakers were Mr.. Blaine, Nelson
Dingley. william p. Frye and Hanni-
bal Hamlin Of Maine and Julius G,
Burrows Of Michigan.
II was then that Mr.. Harnlin said
that IL a mass meeting which had
passed resolutions was all that Mich-
igan could present he would see the
meeting OF July 9, 1854. held at jack
son, and go II a month better by citing
the Portland convention OF June Z,
the same year, at which Chairman
Talbot had recognized the existence OF
the republican party in moving ad-
dress, which had been loudly cheered.
In conclusion, he said that as the
Strong convention OF August was
the first official party action to give
approval to the name OF republican,
he should claim Strong as the birth
place Of the republican party.
Mr.. Burrows, who was then rep
resentative in congress from Michi-
gan. approved Of the decision and said
that he believed that Names claim
was valid.

FIXING HIGH NOON AT SEA.

Wireless Te1egraphy Expected Soon to
Overcome the Difficulty.
The most momentous improvement
in navigation since the invention of
the chronometer, more than 14O years
ago. has just been foreshadowed in a
modest paragraph in the report of the
chief of the bureau of equipment of
the United States navy.
1T is believed" says Chief Man.
ney, 'that the development of WIRE
less telegraphy will enable these (time)
signals to be distributed over water as
well as over land, and that before long
every ship at sea, in addition to every
land station, will receive daily noon
signals from the standard observatory
clock"
What does that mean Nothing less
than the elimination of the last ele
ment Of uncertainty from the problem
of finding the position of a ship at
sea. Hitherto the one weak point in
navigation has been the difficulty of
carrying standard time ON a voyage.
Observations for local time as well
as for latitude have been exact, but
the comparison of local standard time
for obtaining the longitude has in
'olved certain amount of guess work.
The beet chronometer is not quite in
fallible, and some allowance, which
may not be precisely right, has always
to be made for errors.
But with time signals received from
national observatory every day at
noon the mariner will know his way
over any part of the wide ocean as ac-
curately as If he were threading a
buoyed channel. The chronometer
will join the cross-staff and the astro-
labe on the junk heap Of discarded
makeshifts.
And of course ship that can COM
municate with the shore for one pur-
pose is equally In touch with the world
for any other communication it needs
to make.
