C o n v e n t io n . Seneca Falls, July 9.1891. T he crop outlook in Canada is bright. T he grasshopper plague in New Mexico is increasing. B eklin doctors have demonstrated that cancer is contagious. C holeka is spreading in Mecca. Hundreds of deaths are reported. F kesh trouble has arisen between tlie Pope and the Italian government. R ussia is hurrying the construction of four new vessels for the Black Sea PiiANCE has decided to return tlie llussian flags captured during the Cri- I n the chess tournament at Skaneate- les, N. Y., Pollock won tivo games from Delmar. CE t neiial G kebly has been invited to attend the international p o lar conference to be held in Munich. T h e British Columbia sealing fleet up to June 30, collected and safely land­ ed at Victoria, 17,800 skins. M ad foxes are at large in the woods near Charleston, S. C. Over a dozen persons have been bitten by them. T h e British House of Commons has voted §300,000 for the relief of the suf­ fering poor in Ireland. F iv e generations of a family live un­ der one roof near Bay Kidge, L. I. The oldest is said to bo 103 years of ago. T h e first issue of i 1-2 per cent, con­ tinued bonds was mailed from IVash- ington recently. It aggregated $1,- 509,000. N e w Y okk . Customs Officers seized gowns belonging to Mrs. AVilliam Astor because her dressmaker in Paris imdor- valued them. T h e skeletons of nine men and seve­ ral children were found in the wreck of the Utopia, which went down olT the coast of Ginraltar A MAD wolf recently terrified tlie res­ idents of Everet, Mo. Cows, horses and dogs were bitten, and several cases of hydrophobia were reported. T he fatal disease known as “yellows” is making sad havoc in the peach orchards of Kent county, Maryland. It is estimated tliat tlie crop will be cut short more than one-half. TwENTY-EOUii foreign nations have now olfiv-ially accepted the invitation to participate in the Exposition. Russia, Turkey, Denmark, Persia and Egypt are among the recent acquisitions. F k e e trade, free whisky and several otlier free things of which it isn’t neces­ sary to speak receive ready support from the Democratic party, but when it comes to a free ballot that party is tmanimous in its opposition. A niLLlfor the suppression of inebreity is being prepared in the Gorman Bundesrath. The emperor takes tlie livliest interest in the scheme to check drunkenness, and has ordered that the progress of the measure be reported to him during his trip. Y oung Pierce, who was saved from drowning at Martha’s Vineyard by Judge AUen B. Parker and J. W. Hinckley, during the recent trip of Governor Hill and party, is a nephew of the governor’s and a student at the Albany Medical college. N ina V an ZiVNDx, who married one of the Chicago anarchists just before his execution, is again an applicant for notoriety. She has now married an Italian, and says that she was merely a dummy to excite sympathy for Spies, the anarchist, and that she never loved him, not even a little bit. T he immense cotton and woolen mill of Campell & Elliott, Philadelphia, was destroyed by fire Friday night. The loss is between §600,000 and §750,000, and is believed to be covered by insurance. The fire was one of the fiercest ever seen in the city. Over 450 mon.womcn and children are thrown out of employ- T h e return of Gen. Clarkson, presi­ dent of the Republican National League, from Europe, has started the ball of the presidential campaign to rolling, and the individual members of the clubs comprising the league will see to it that it does not stop imtil the people have again endorsed the American policy by electing another Republican president. A very perceptible earthquake shock was felt at Evansville, Ind., last Sun­ day evening. Congregations at all the churches rushed pell mell into the streets without waiting for the benedic­ tion. Serious panics occurred at eral churches. At the First Baptist church a number of children fell down the steps and were hurt, none danger­ ously. No fatalities have yet been reported. CiiAUNCEY M. D e p e w arrived in London July 23. He said his trip was his usual summer outing, and he had come to the old world for a rest. “The doctor,” he said, “ told me to drop aU work and while at sea to make speeches, but to lie on my back and look at the sky and the waves. I fol­ lowed his ad\dce by making a speech on tlie Declaration of Independence the second night, a speech on the captain’s birthday, a third was a lecture to forty ministers, a fourth in the second cabin, and a speech at the concert on the fifth night. The doctor will be shocked.” Mr. Depew remains in. London three weeks and then goes to Hamburg. M a a XJato D e s t r u c t i o n . ‘Whom the gods would destroy, they firsi; make mad,” and that seems to be about the crisis reached by the political pirates and their “only” organ, the Courier, in Seneca county. The editor of that unscrupulous sheet makes himself a mere laughing-stock in this community, where his tactics and affiliations are known, Avhen he prates about the Republican avengers—who have notified him that his boss-ship is ended—having “sought to secure a democratic victory, and to injure the Republican party.\ The patent truth is, that this ex-boss, having been rebuked and repudiated at home, is now addressing himself to “Republican headquarters,” the party managers and patronage dispensers, whom he has besieged for years with supercilious assumptions that himself and his piratical organ were the embod­ iment of the Republican party in Seneca county, and the sole arbiters of its des­ tiny, and from whom he claims to have received a prospective lien upon the postoffiee here for his distinguished ser- ‘My friend, Tom Platt,” will take no stock in such bare-faced traducing of the prominent Republicans in tliis coun­ ty, with whom he is tolerably well ac­ quainted himself, and this short-sighted piratical pitch at them will only prove to him and all others that soipebody has been trying to deceive them all the iiny man is more than foolish when he attempts to make anybody believe, or in his reckless desperation ventures to assert that such men as “A. M. Pat­ terson, Harrison Chamberlain and M ar­ tin L. Allen, last fall openly supported the entire Democr.atie ticket in this coun­ ty, exiiending their money and using their influence to defeat every Republi­ can nominee from Court of Appeals to coroner.” This is too bald a falsehood to need contradiction, and only shows the utterly dazed and demoralized con­ dition of the discomfitted piratical bosses. These men whom the Courier thus traduces, have all been known as honor­ able and worthy in every capacity, and liouored leaders in tlie Republican party in this county for years behire the ad­ vent here of the pestiferous Schuyler fortune hunter, and may well regard his puerile thrusts with a smile of con­ tempt. It is an honor for him to liave such men even point the finger of scorn at him, as it helps him to much coveted notoriety, albeit of a discreditable char- “AVorking with Democrats,” forsootli! It has been common knowledge from tiieir start, that the Mongin-Andrews conspirators succeeded only by demo­ cratic aid in raiding and stealing Repub­ lican caucuses, and thus over-riding the real Republican sentiment and gaining temporary control, by an outrageous and unprincipled combine of the worst elements in both parties. It will be singular if the democratic party does not follow the Republican cxamiile and administer a just rebuke to its own known members of such combine. “The ring” lias become an open disgrace to both parties,and it is time it v/assiraiyht- ened ottl. If the Courier editor depends upon making anybody believe such silly fa­ bles as he published last week, he m.ay as well conclude that his mischief mak­ ing is about over liere, and depart missionary to the marines. 'I'lic C o u n t y C o u v c i i tiu i i. No.xt Saturday, at Romulus, tlie Re­ publican County Convention, to be com­ posed of five delegates from each town, will assemble for the purpose, as an­ nounced in the call, “of sending ten representatives to the convention of Re­ publican clubs called for Syracuse, Aug. 5; also for the election of four dele­ gates to the State convention, five to the senatorial convention and three to tlie judicial convention, all hereafter to be called; and for the transaction of such other business as nuiy properly come before the convention.\ IMany apiirchend that the piratical gang, smarting and reckless under tlieir dire defeat, will attempt to repeat their br.azcn robbery of last year, but we doubt it. Some of them begin to real­ ize tliat they and their iniquitous schemes are under party condemnation, and tliat the time has arrived when for them, ‘discretion is the better part of valor.’’ Besides, they will find their vile plot­ tings have been anticipated, and will be met, to the extent of force vs. force if necessary, to compel them to a decent observance of delegate rights and con­ ventional proprieties. AA’’e hope for an orderly and reputa­ ble convention, and believe tliat a very large majority of the delegates sincere­ ly desire it, and will not yield to any threats or blandishments of the disgr>in- tled and discarded piratical captains, in their vain eflorts to retain their usurped control, to the further humiliation and destruction of the iiarty. Our County and party have suflerctl long enougli by f.actional bickerings and suicidal warfare, precipitated by the imscrupulous and self-serving schemes of a few small-calibered demagogues, who aspire to be “ leaders” and “ bosses,” without the slightest claim to prefer­ ment, or even toleration in the party, and who stand in the public gaze to-day as convicted traitors to the interests of the party, and mischief-makers in gen- Let us have Republican “harmony,” based upon concurrence in honest Re­ publican principles, and represented by honest men, whose practices as well as theory give evidence of higher motives than self-promotion and a handling of the spoils. Our county has passed a severe ordeal; let her now reap the le­ gitimate profits of the lesson, and with reestablished unity in its ranks, ^ e party here may hope to keep weU in line with the gr.ond Republican proces­ sion, which is to march on to victory in the approaching State and national cam­ paigns. Send square men, of sound judgment to the State gathering of clubs in Syra­ cuse, and representatives of the same stamp to the several conventions, and all will be well.

D ear Silt:—^AYe take pleasure to ac- knoAvledge the receipt of your paper, and note the prominence you so kindly give to the notice that we would not ad­ vance the price of the Genuine Taylor Old Style brand of roofing tin on July 1st. AA^e feel that our position is quite difl’erout from most importers; we have been dealing in tinplate for many yes our house having been establi 1810. AVe have made many improve­ ments in tinplate, and own a number of brands that we liave had made accord­ ing to our own formulas. Feeling that the goods could be made in America, and naturally preferring to have them made here under our person­ al supervision ini place of three thousand miles away according to our instructions, we arranged to go into the manufacture and erected a plant for the purpose. AVe have always sold the Taylor Old Style brand of roofing tin under the guarantee that we would give double the value for any sheet found showing the slightest imperfection. As wo have been able to improve the plate we are making hero by putting on more coat­ ing, we now make an additional guar­ antee by offering to ship it to any part of the United States, and if it is not found superior to every other roofmj tin we will remove it at our expense. AVe are making the roofing tin from the black sheets, going through each process in the most careful manner un­ til finished, each plate receiving four distinct coatingsi of metal, no rolls nor artificial means used for reducing the coating, but everything to improve the quality, increase the coating, and there­ by produce the finest plate known. A''ery Respectfully, N. & G. T aylor C o . E l e c t v o c u t i o u l i a w t o b e T e s t e il The Grand Jury of New York county have indicted Charles C. O’Hennessey, city editor of the Daily News, for vio­ lating the law by publishing an account of tlie execution of the four criminals who suffered death July 7, and giving details beyond those allowed by law. The penalty prescribed for his “ misde­ meanor” is “not more than one year’s imprisonment in the penitentiary, or a fine not exceeding §500, or both.” Mr. Hennessey said: “I cannot see why the News should have been selected in pref­ erence to any otlior newspaper by the District Attorney. However, we wel­ come the issue and intend to carry it up to tlio Court of Appeals if necessary.” T h e State of New York has for up­ wards of seventy years taken deep interest in the education of deaf mutes. The Legislature now makes appropria­ tions for the support of seven institu­ tions, three in the city of New York, one each in Rome, Rochester, Buffalo and Malone. P rof . K och has resign’ed all the pub­ lic offices held by him. This step is associated with supposed disappoint­ ment over the unsatisfactory results of h1s “ Tuberculin.” The Academic Sen­ ate will bestow an honorary office upon him, permitting him to lecture when­ ever he chooses. _________ T h e consecration of Rev. Phillips Brooks, D. D., asi bishop of the diocese of Massachusetts, will take place in Trinity church, Boston, AVeduesday, October 14. The Rt. Rev. John AVil- liams, D. D., LL.

The name of the bishop appointed as the other presbyter is not given out, as the acceptance of the appointment has not yet been received. Rev. Henry Potter, D. 1)., LL. D.. bishop of New York, will be the preacher. The two clerical brothers of this bisliop-cleet, the Rev. Arthur Brooks, rector of the Church of the Incarnation, New York city, .and the Rev.
