The Seventh Annual Convention of the Republican League of the State of Penn sylvania, to elect officers, and transact such other business as may be necessary, will be held In the Opera house, Harris burg, Penna., on Wednesday, September Cth, ISM, at 10 o'clock, a. ni. All clubs should, as soon as possible, elect three delegates and three alternates, and certi fy their names and P. O. addresses to those headquarters. The annual dues, if not already paid, should bo sent to the Treasurer at once ; as August 27th Is the last day they can be paid to entitle clubs epresentation In the Convention. The Republican club of Harrisburg, and tho Local Reception Committee, are making extensive and generous preparations for Uie entertainment of the delegates and friends. Delegates and Alternates must report on arrival at the Headquarters, The Lochlol, Harrisburg, Pa. Low rates for transportation have been applied for, and full and further particulars will be sent when credentials are forwarded. A mass meeting will be held In the Opera house in the evening of September 5th, at which Speakers of National im portanco, the National officers of tho League, and the State Candidates will bo present, and address the delegates and the young Republicans present. This Convention will be the opening gnn of the Gubernatorial Campaign. Let every club be represented, and all young Re publicans unite to manifest to the eoun try Pennsylvania's steadfast adherance to Republican principles, and her deep detestation of the Democratio Admlnis trail oy ftnd Congress, which has for Irtany months labored to destroy our most valued industries; depreciate the reward of the wage earner ; bring chaos to our financial and commercial institu tlons, and make that wealth and prosper! ty, which was the chief glor- f the Na tion under the Rupnblican rule, a remote and forgotten tradition. Further Information will be promptly furnished by addressing these headquar ters. Do not forget the election of Del egates and Alternates, and the payment of dues to the Troasurer before the 27th Inst Very respectfully, John B. Robinson, President "Old Globy" shelter and pro tects them all. The Chinese in Ja pan and the Japanese in China have placed themselves under tho protec tion of the United States representa tives in these countries, and breathe Tree now that the Stars and Stripes wave over I hem. This is a great country. It uot ouly takes care of itself, but it shelters in foreign conn tries the people of other lands. The assassin of President Carnot, of France, Santo Cesario, was on Friday found guilty and sentenced to death. This is somewhat livelier work than is usually done in such cases, and is quite refreshing to note, That venerable cbeese-parer, Coo gressman Holmao, is likely to have trouble to get back to the House. The Republicans in his district have Dominated an exceedingly popular young man, and the chronio objector u going to have a very lively run for bis money, as they say on the race track. The Republican Senatorial Con- feiees in the Venango-Warren dis trict held two meetings at Oil City last week, but failed to agree on nomination and adjourned to meet again at Oil City the 16th of this month. The candidates are C. M bbortt, of Sugar Grove, and II. J, IIopkio8, of Pleasantville. Now that Pompadour JiraCorbett, the gentleman prize-fighter, has ar ! i r n . ... iivcu irom Europe, it will be in or der for him to leave the stage and take the lecture platform to talk on "How I Was Snubbed by the Bleed in' Blarsted Britishers," If Jim as good on the lecture platform as he is talking fight preliminaries, he will make a howling success. Jhe lilusville World has it all hgured down to a dot, as follows: It is well euougb, perhaps, that our con cave-visaged brethein of Cathay don t really know their strength, an are mainly disposed to stay at home otherwise they might occupy otbe couotriea through sheer force of num bers. The report that 1,000 of them were sunk with their ship the other day by their Japanese foes was a great loss of life from aoy other than a Chinese standpoint ; yet if China should have 1000 people destroyed daily for 1000 years to come it would still have at the eud of that period a greater number of inhabitants than the present population of the Uuited States. N. Y., for sleeping car berths, or further Information at as early date a possible. No trip equals the aboveconsidcring how little it cosls do not miss tho last oppor tunity for ISM. Senator Smith, of New Jersey, is a fighter and when he has cause he can deal right lusty blows. Some days ago some of his Democratic con stituents in Englewood, a country town in New Jersey, sent him a com munication asking bim to vote for the Wilson bill "in accordance with the wishes of his constituents." This riled the Jersey Senator and he an swered the bucolio free traders in a hot letter in the course of which he says : "I can readily understand how, in a residential town like Englewood there may have developed a senti ment in favor of a longer step towards free trade, but, as you well say, it is my duly to endeavor to 're present all the State and not part of it,' and much as I would like to grat ify my constituents in Englewood, I ave also to consider the desires of my constituents in the more populous nd more typical New Jersey cities f Newark, Jersey City, New Bruns wick, Trenton and Patterson. And may add that, while I have received from those who earn their livelihood as well as reside in these and other towns scores of appeals to oppose the Wilsou bill, yours is the first and on ly reraonstance bearing more tbau a single signature I have yet seen." It is safe to sav that the Eagle- wooders will not feel very happy over that letter, aud they won't exhibit it to the world with aoy decree of pride. The Free Text Hooks. The first year of general applies ion of the free text book law to the schools of Pennsylvania has proved ts unqualified success, when viewed from the standpoint of either the parent, pupil or teacher. . A canvass of the state through communications with the county superintendents, made by "The Post," has established he tact of the successful operation of the law to even a higher degree than its warmest supporters hoped to attain. In soliciting information from su perintendent as to the results of their observations of the practical operation of the law in the 67 coun ties of the state, they were requested to uote both its advantages aud dis advantages. Without a single ex ception the replies show that, under the new law, the attendance in all schools has increased; that the teach ers are better able to classify their pupils; more pupils study the higher branches, and that money is saved to the taxpayer. The children of the poor are for the first time placed on an equality with those of the rich, maoy of the former being able to at tend school who were heretofore pre venter? by want of books. The par ents are relieved of the anxietv. trouble, anuoyance and difficulty of providing books. The teacher has no trouble to have his pupils study all the branches for he is able to pro vide each the right book at the right time. In the mining and lumbering re gions, where the population is con stantly changing, the law is a boon to the poorer classes, inasmuch as new books are nut needed with every change of residence. One most ben eficial result is the iucreased interest taken in the schools by parents aod their greater anxiety to have their children attend more regularly. Un der the old system many parents were either indifferent or opposed to hav- lug their children persue the higher branches, and would not provide the necessary books.
