The Return Judges of the Forest County Republican Primaries, held last Saturday, met in Convention at the Court House yesterday, at 2 p. m., and were called to order by acting Chairman Gus B. Evans, who appointed as secretaries of the meet ing Leon Watson of Nebraska, aod M. E. Abbott of Hickory. The roll was called, showing nearly every pre cinct represented by the properly ac credited Judge, those not iu atten dance having transmitted their re turns by the hands of one of the judges of bis township, as per resolu tion by the County Committee Feb. 24th. The returns were then opened and computed by the Chairman and Sec retaries, resulting in the nomination of the following ticket, and the gen tlemen named were declared duly Dominated by the Chair: Congress, A. Wayne Cook, of Bar Dett twp. Assembly, J. E. Wenk, of Tio necta. Prothonolary, John fl. Robertson, of Jeuks twp. Sheriff, Frank F. Walker, of Green twp. - County Commissioners, W. M. Coon, of Barnett twp., and Cbas. M. Whiteman, of Tionesta twp. Auditors, M. E.Abbott, of Hick ory twp., and J. R. Clark, of Tiones ta. Jury Commissioner, J. B. Carpen ter, of Kingsley twp. National Delegate, J. C. Campbell, of Jeuks twp. State Delegate, Geo. L. King, of Harmony twp. The Bowmanville returns were sent by mail, but failed to arrive in time to be tabulated. The Chairman was empowered to add the vote of that precinct to the returns when re ceived. They have been recived and appear in the table published today. On moliou Mr. Cook, candidate for Congress, was accorded the courtesy of naming his own Conferees. The same courtesy was also extended to Mr. Campbell, candidate for Na tional Delegate. The election of a Chairman for the ensuing year being next in order, Mr. B. J. Day, of Kellettville, nominated Gus B. Evans, and he was unani mously chosen. Mr. Evans has dur ing the pastyear very acceptably filled the place in the absence of the regular Chairman, and bis election at this time is a graceful recognition of bis services. The business of the Convention was thus practically finished, and af ter all candidates present bad re turned thanks for the boners confer red the meeting adjourned. Through out the proceedings were harmonious, and the canvass ended as it had begun, in good feeling and iriendli ness in the ranks. Of the ticket nominated we shall take pleasure in speaking later in the approaching campaign, sufficing it to say now that it is made up of loyal, steadfast Republicans, aud one which will enlist the hearty and united support of the party in the fall.

Warned In Time. 1 The Telegraph desires at this time to warn Republican district confer ences at which Republican electors for the National ticket are elected to be very careful who are named for electors. The law says that no man connected with the United States Government in any position whatever is eligible for the position of Presi dential elector, and is held to apply not only to those who hold appointive or salaried positious under the Feder al Government, but also to National Hank officers and stockholders in National Banks. To be sure, the question as to the National Bank of ficers and stockholders has never bceu settled, yet there is rd element of uncertainty in the mattter which was considered so serious some years ago as to lead (he Republican State Committee to request a National Bank director, whu had been placed on the electnrial ticket, to get off the ticket, aod, though he demurred, he was compelled to do so. It is this that the Telegraph desires to call to the attention of the Republicans of Pennsylvania at this time. Coun ty conventioos are being held und electors will soou be chosen. It is better to be careful and best to be certain. A single electorial vote was very valuable iu 1877, when the question of who should be President trembled in the balance. Ilarriis- burg Telegraph. On Monday, nt Washington, the House adopted the conference report on tbe Cuban resolutions by a vote of 244 to 27. By this action the House agreed to the Senate resolutious aud disposed of tbe Cuban question for the present. These resolutions were as follows : Resolved, That in the opinion of Congress, a roudilion of public war exists between the government of Spain and the government proclaim ed, and for the time maintained by force of arms by the people of Cuba; and that the United States of Amer ica should maintain a strict neutral ity between the contending powers according to each all the rights of belligerents in the ports and territory of the United States. Resolved, Further, that tbe friend ly office of the United States should be offered by the president to the Spanish government for the recogni tion of the independence of Cuba. Tue statement of Mr. KaufJman, of the KaufTman Milling Company of St. Louis, one of the largest expor lent of flour in the country, that the sales of that -concern in Cuba and Porto Rico were 83000 to S4000 per month before the reciprocity treaties were made, and about 825,000 per month during the time the treaties were in force, whereas since the re peal of the treaties they bave falleu to from 82000 to 83000 per month, is a conclusive argument in favor of the parly which established the recipro city policy aud will restore it as soon as possible.

According to the Derrick's report, the new production was swelled in March by tbe Tyler county gushers, and several strikes of more than or dinary calibre in the McDouald and Cecil districts iu Washington county. A number of wells iu the Indian Creek field have been delayed in reaching the proper spot in the sand by the enormous gas pressure, or the March production would have shown a much heavier percentage ol gain. Operators coutiune to complain of the loads, but new operations show a decided gain over those of the preced ing month. The March summing up for the helds producing Pennsylvania oil re veals the fact that 542 wells were completed, of which 142 were devoid of oil, while the production of the re.nainder amounted to 8.842 barrels. Compared with February there was a decrease of thirteen wells completed with an increase of 1,075 barrels iu new production. The new work under way at lite close ot March consisted ot 413 rigs anil Oo! arming wells, which was a decrease of three rigs and an in crease of forty-eight wells drilling over Jtebruary.
