COMMITTEES:
John ]. Perry Of Oxford.
g. A. Kimban Of Rumf0rd,
Sidney Perham Of Woodstock,
America Farrar Of Buck6eld,
John Monroe Of Livermore.
The resolutions adopted occupy two
thirds of q column of the Democrat.
They congratulate the country on the
election of Franklin Pierce to the presi-
dency; condemn the action of the Ban
gor convention which nominated Pills
bury; endorse the candidacy Of Mr..
Morrill,, who had been nominated for
governor by the mass convention few
days earlier; and give an expression on
some minor matters. A peculiar feature
of them is that they declare In favor OF
biennial elections, biennial sessions of
the legislature limited to sixty days In
length, and the adjustment of the execu-
tive council. A portion of these changes
were effected q quarter of century
later, but some of them have not come
yet.
At different times in the course of the
convention 1t is recorded that interest
ing, appropriate and enthusiastic re-
marks were made by Mr.. Perham of
Woodstock, John j. Perry of Oxford,
Mr.. Ludden of Turner, Brown of Paris,
and Monroe of Livermore.
This summarizes the report OF this
notable convention, as given in the OK
ford Democrat of Aug. 10, 1858. So far
as the Democrat knows, the only person
mentioned in it who is now living is Ex-
Governor Sidney Perham, now Of Paris
Hill. The part which he has had in the
history of the party which had its origin
in those troublous political times, is
generally we'll known. The party has
since that time honored him with i'm
portant positions in the state and nation,
and he has honored the party in them
all.

With this somewhat lengthy even II
unsatisfactory introduction, we get down
to the convention itself which is the sub
ject of this article. A report OF 1t
furnished by the secretaries is published
BY the Democrat, and in its introduction
the paper says: I'VE have no room for
comments. We can only say that the
Convention was composed of the most
tried and faithful Democrats in the
County. With one exception, every
town in the County was represented.
The ticket for County and Senatorial
officers is one of the best that could have
been nominated. 1t is pillar OF
strength"
1t is to be regretted that list of the
delegates does not appear in the report,
and that all we know of its membership
is its officers and committees. Isaac
Gross of Turner was chairman, r. A.
Chapman of Bethel and A. Cutter OF
Lowell Independents, John Monroe OF
Livermore and Alden Chase of Wood
stock secretaries. The committee which
reported the list of delegates was COM
posed Of

BOWEL COMPLAINT IN CHILDREN

BOWEL COMPLAINT IN CHILDREN.
During the summer months children
are subject to disorders of the bowels
which should receive careful attention
as soon as the first unnatural looseness
of the bowels appears. The best medi-
cine in use for bowel complaint is
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhea Remedy as it promptly controls
any unnatural looseness of the bowels.

Good Shooting by Co. D Team.

While the boys of Co. D have not been
taking first in everything in the rifle
shoot at Wakefield, Mass, during the
past week, they have been giving good
account of themselves. The weather
has not been particularly favorable for
high scores, wind interfering more or
less with the shooting.
In the first company team match, which
was for the trophy of the First Corps
Cadets of Massachusetts,, Co. D won
over twenty competitors, having score
of 312 against 902 for the two nearest
rivals. The scores in this match are as

Clinton McKeen, 10 years old, son OF
Y. c. McKeen, suffered bad accident at
the Paris Manufacturing Co.'s factory
Wednesday. He was tending at the
back end of a double tenoning machine
when the man running it shut it down.
As the speed was Stacking, the boy
dropped his hat on one of the upright
cutter heads of the machine to see 1t re-

was caught and drawn into the cutters,
the wrist and forearm being badly cut
before the machine stopped. Some OF
the tendouS and some small arteries were
cut, and he lost considerable blood. The
wounds were promptly dressed, and be

easy to see that it was no job for an
amateur to raise them. They were got

expert, most of four days being used up
in the operation.
Mrs. l.. l.. Whitman of California is at
George r. MortOn's. Mr.. Whitman
came as far as Syracuse, N. Y, and then
returned to California. Mr.. Whitman Is
an agent for the Franklin automobile,
and holds the record from San Francisco
to New York, made by him and com
panion two or three years ago, which
nearly cut in half the former record.
1t is now proposed by the company to
see how near they can come to cutting
this record in half, and it is for that pur'
pose that Mr.. Whitman has returned to
California. He will start with four othel
men in a car, the men relieving one an
other and running night and day, T.

time.
