MONDAY and Tuesday of this week July 18 and 13, were much the warm est days here this year, so far. Thi President has appointed Wm. A. Stone, Esq., U. 8. District Attorney for the Western District of Pennsylva nia. M. C. BENEDICT and J. T. Donley, Esq'ra, and Messts. James Stephenson and J. R.

TH* Hon. Wm. 8. Garvin, the vet eran editor of the Mercer Press, is ly ing dangerously ill at his residence in Mercer, Pa. He has been editor for his party in that county for at least fifty years. EX-GOVERNOR J SWELL, of Connec ticut, has been made Chairman of the Republican National Committee. He will make a good executive official, and will enter into the campaign with a hearty good will. IT is said that so numerous are the telegrams received at Mentor for Gen. Garfield, since his nomination, that it has been found necessary to run a wire to bis house and station an operator there for th. Senator. We need hardly say, that we give our hearty concurrence to such recommen dation. It may be a little premature to be moving in that direction as yet, inasmuch as the Legislature has yet to be chosen, and the "Clearfield States man" to be got rid of; but it is one of encouraging signs of the times to know that two such able and highly distin guished gentlemen as Judge A. and Hon. Galusba A. Grow, should be brought out even thus early in connec tion with that exalted position.—Bea ver Times, July 8. A WORD OF CAUTION. To the Republican Committee of this county a word of caution seems advisable just now. Our county ticket is all completed, except the settling of the candidate for the State Senate, which will soon be done by this and Armstrong county. It is already ap parent that the utmost harmony and the united efforts of all may lie neces sary to give our candidates, National State and County, that vote that they should have in the county. The elec tion of the Congress and the Legisla tive tickets, in this and all other coun ties of the State, is of the greatest im portance this year. It is therefore no time for further strife in or annoyance to the party from any quarter. The late County Convention of Return Judges, that received and counted up the result of the late primaries, done its work patiently and fully, in vestigating the only matter of com plaint made to it by any candidate. Most candidates, when they are defeat ed, have honor and respect enough for themselves and the party to submit to the will of the people. But some have become such chronic office seekers that no number of defeats apfiears to quiet them. They are sore-headed—contin ually growling and complaining, annoy ing the party and endangering its suc cess. This, we are told, is the case with one of the candidates defeated at the late primary, who is said to be striving with and endeavoring to pro cure from some members of the County Committee, something or other to bol ster up some claim to a re-hearing or re-count of the votes then cast, or in other words, asking the Committee to undo just exactly what they did do. ■Such a thing, if now allowed, will en danger our whole ticket. It therefore becomes the duty of each and every member of the present County Commit tee to give no ear or encouragement to any such restless, selfish disturber of the peace of the party. It can result in no good, and the interests, of the party forbid it. We have thought these few words of caution to the members of the County Committee might he needed at present, as we believe they would not knowingly do anything to further distract or divide the Republi can party in this county. CONGRESSIONAL CONFERENCE. In another place will 1M: seen the proceeding of the meeting of the Con gressional Conference of this district that asuembled in Mercer on Tuesday the 6th inst,.,at 7 P. M. How they came to assemble then and there, and the re sult of the meeting will l»e found in the proceedings. We invite every Repub lican of this county, and of this dis trict, to give them a careful and candid reading. We also invite attention to an article from the Titusville Herald of July 9, a Republican paper of wide circulation and wide influence in the district, and whose editor was upon the ground to report all proceedings, which, with the exception of one or two minor points, agree with the official re port. We prefer this method of laying the matter in full before the Republi cans of this county, rather than to any statement of our own at present. The only matter of trouble in the Conference was that which came from Crawford county, where there were two gentlemen, Messrs. Dick and Rob erts, claiming to be the regular nomi nee of that county. The Butler confer ees thought that .Senator Roberts had decidedly the strongest case on his side. Their reason for thinking so were the facts that he showed, lirst, that he had 113 of a majority of the votes at the Crawford county primary election ; second, that the alleged throwing out of two wards of the city of Titusville, carried by him, was not done by a ma jority of the Crawford County Con vention, as required by their rule, but was done in an irregular and unfair manner; third, that he had no more votes in Titusville than he was enti tled to from the Republican strength there, inasmuch as he bad only about the same vote now for nomination that Mr. Dick himself had at the primary two years ago when a candidate and nominated for Congress; the vote fur Dick at the primary in IK7S, being 70S, and the vote for Roberts in IHBO being 793, by which it will be seen that Dick received but 25 votes less in Ti tusville in IH7B than Senator Roberts did iu June last, although Mr. Rob erts lives there and Dick does not, and although Titusvile is a rapidly grow ing city. These and other unanswered arguments and statements were offered in favor of Senator Itolx.Tts, as the nominee of Crawford county ; yet the Mercer county candidate, Mr. Miller, and his conferees, for some incompre hensible reason, proposed and were willing to reject RoliertH and admit Dick, the minority man, to the Confer ence at the very outstart. So unfair a proposition was not agreed to by the ©Hiss***: !P**t Butler county Conferees, and the re sult was an organization of the Cou ference with the Roberts conferees and j the subsequent nomination of Mr. Mc .lunkin as the Republican candidate for Congress in this district. CONGRESSIONAL CONFERENCE. Proceedings of (he Republican Con ference tor the 2(5/A Pennsylvania Congressional District, held at Mercer, Pa., July 6 and 7. with a statement of the causes vhich led to its organization. The Congressional I»istrict is com posed of three counties, Mercer, Butler and Crawford. In Mercer, 8. 11. -Mil ler, Esq., was nominated. In Butler there were two candidates, Mr. J. D. McJunkin and Mr. Thomas Robinson. McJunkin was nominated by a majori ty of 107 votes. In the Convention railed to count the vote and declare the nominee, fraud was alleged in some of the McJunkin districts, and a commit tee composed of two Robinson and one McJunkin delegate, was appointed to investigate. They unanimously report ed in favor of the vote as cast. The report of the Committee was adopted by the Convention by a large majority, and the candidates nominated as shown by the face of the returns were declared the nominees of the party. This dis posed of the contest in Butler county. In Crawford county, the candidates were Hon. S. li. I)ick and I'r. W. B. Roberts. Upon the face of the returns I)r. W. B. Roberts was nominated by a majority of 113 votes. I nder the rules of Crawford county, tl:e Return Judges shall l»e competent to reject, by a majority vote, the return of any dis trict where there is evidence of fraud. The County Convention which met was composed of sixty return judges, thirty-one of whom would be a majority of the whole number. On a motion to throw out certain Roberts districts, a vote was token, the Dick men claiming thirty in favor of the motion, the Rob. erts "men admitting twenty-nine in its favor, but neither claiming thirty-one, a majority of the whole vote. The Convention divided, both having or ganizations, thirty-one declaring Hob ens the nominee and the others declar ing Dick the nominee, On the 2f»th day of June Mr. Miller and Mr. McJunkin agreed upon Mercer as the place, and .July fi at 7 P. M., as the time for holding the conference. The contest in Crawford county was admitted ami it was understood that the candidates from Crawford county should be equally treated with and that notice should be given to both of the time and place of holding the Confer ence. In a cordanee with this under standing, Messrs. Miller and McJunkin wrote duplicate letters to Dick and Roberta, of which the following are co pies ; MKtu.es, PA , J«IIC 2fUi, ISBO. J lon. If. IS.

In pursuance of the above all the four parties met in Mercer at the time. Mr. Me.lunkin's Conferees, at 7 I', M., held an informal meeting wfth Mr. .Mil ler's Conferees. The question discussed was the action to be taken with regard to Crawford county, the Mercer Con ferees insisting that Dick should be ad mitted as entitled prima fuv.'u: to his geat; the Butler Conferees contending that Dick and Roberts should be. trent ed alike, and neither admitted until Mercer and Butler Conferees should organize and pass upon the credentials from Crawford county; that by admit ting Dick in the first instar.ee he won d have an unfair advantage, for if a mo tion were made to sulwtiiute the Hub erts Conferees, upon proof that Huberts was the nominee from Crawford coun ty, and the Butler and Mercer Confer ees were to divide, Mr. Dick would re tain his seat. No understanding was arrived at, and Mr. Miller's Conferees withdrew for consultation.

Kihtob Kka :—The Congressional embroglio of the Twenty-sixth district is one, we fear, which tuny result in a Democratic selection in the fall for that important position. Ln any event we are inclined lo side wiUi McJunkU), n j»- prcciating the honornble course that gentleman has pursued. Briefly, he occupies this position : Mr. Miller went to Butler to see Mr. McJunkin and while there ignored Mr. Robinson utterly. They agreed upon Mercer as a suitable place to hold their conference and stated a time and place at which they should meet. They fur ther agreed to notify both Dick and Roberts <>f their conclusions, but not recognizing or endorsing either claim ant from that county. They did so instruct those parties, and in pursuance of such instructions I lick and Roberts both appeared, there, by sanctioning the right of McJunkin. When he found that both parties from Crawford were there and both deter mined to enter the conference*, he pro posed to Mr. Miller that they, with their respective conferees, meet and examine into the eases of the Crawford claimants, and whichever in their judg ment, after hearing both sides, was en titled to representation should be ad mitted. To this very fair proposition Miller assented, but for some inexpli cable reason failed to respond at the time and place designated. Later when met by one of MeJtinkin's conferees, he declined to recogize Roberts in any manner or give any reason for such strangely ineonsistant conduct, he hav ing notified both parties of the intended conference. At the time specified in the notifica tions and agreement Mr. Me.l tin kin's conferees were in the room designated and were soon joined l»y the Roberts party. After waiting a reasonable time for the others and they failing to ap pear, they did then and there nominate J. D. McJunkin for Congress in a reg ular and legal manner, and by virtue of that act be is to-day and will remain, the peoples candidate for that high iiiul honorable position. If we arn defeated in November by the introduction of an other candidate, the responsibility will rest heavily upon the shoulders of Satn. Miller, whose very equivocal action has jeopardized the chances of the party's , success, by his utter disregard of the t agreement entered into with Mr. Mc .l nnkiu. It was predicted, even by the Dem ocrats, long before the conference was called, that the typical weather-cocks of Cameron, Robinson, Miller and Dick would pull together to defeat McJun kin, and whether the ending justified the means or not, they obeyed the mas ter with true religious submission. But it's no use. The people have declared against ring rule and are determined to destroy the last vistage of it in the district. MERCER CONFERENCE. A Brief History of the Proceedings. SENATOR RO BERTS' FIRM STAND FOR TLIE RIO UTS OF HIS CONSTITUENTS —M'JCNKIN THE NOMINEE— HIS CLEAR AND CONSIST ENT PUBLIC RECORD. We publish in yesterday's issue a telegram from Mercer announcing the nomination of lion. J. D. McJunkin,' of Butler, as the Republican candidate for Congress in the Twenty-sixth Con gressional district. This result was ac complished on the second day of the Conference. We shall present in an earlv issue the official report of the proceedings, which will speak for itself. It is well known, however, that there has been a contest in Crawford county between Senator Roberts and Hon. S B. Dick, which has led to some embarrassment in the Congres sional struggles in this district. In con sequence of this struggle, Mr. S. H. Miller, the nominee for Congress in Mercer, and Mr. McJunkin, the nomi nee for Congress from Butler, con sulted together at Butler on the 26th of June ult., and agreed between them selves that the Conference should be held at Mercer on the 6th of July at 7 o'clock p. in., and that written notice should be sent by each party to hot}; Roberts and Dick, advising them of such conference and requesting them to be present. These notices were sent and received by Roberts and Dick. On the day ap pointed all the parties were present at Mercer with their conferees. Very much to the suprise, however, of Mr. McJunkin, Mr. Miller was dis covered to have changed his position, and on the arrival of tin; parties »t Mercer, announced that he would per mit Mr. Dick's conferees to participate in the organisation of the conference upon the same terms with himself and Mr. McJunkin. To this Mr. McJunkin very proper ly objected, inasmuch as both Roberts j und Dick claimed to be the regular nominee* of t(v party, aiif| to j ( old tjie requisite credentials. £lr. McJunkin contended that Roberts having re ceived beyond any controversy, tiie majority of the votes in Crawford was entitled wit! equal courtesy with Col. Dick. Under the circumstances, Mr. MeJpnJiin insisted that the original agreement and understanding between himself and Mr. Miller should be ad hered to and tliat neither Robert's nor Di.-k's ponfereea should bo admitted until their case had bppn presented and passed upon by the conferees of Mercer and Butler. To this proposition Senator Roberts and his conferees adopted, and stated that iiicy vvotflf] cfocerfyily actjuie.-co in whatever conclusion was arrived at. Ooi. Dick, oil | }|e contrary, dissppted from this proposition, iijoistlng UPQO entering the conference upon terms of equality with Mr. McJunkin and Mr. Miller The entire afternoon of the (Ith i-pent without coming to any ar rangrmeni, and iho haying ar» rived for the conference to assemble ac e.u'dinijlonotice, Mr. MeJ tinkin notified Mr. Miller in writing t)i;|t |jis confer* ees would meet in room 11 ot the Whistler House, wle-re they would be ready to proceed with the business of the ('onCerence. Neither Mr. Miller Jior Ijia conferees responded to this notice, and ufusr a lapse of a reasonable time, Mr. McJun- Kin notified Col. I»i» J- Henator Robert# that the mJsi'Jn way being held in room 11, where ihe coutcstentfl from Crawford county might present their credentials and be heard. Col. Dick and* his conferees paid no atten tion to this notice, but Roberts' con ferees responded to it, and presented their credentials, whi h were favora bly parsed lipon, iv|iCi.|'i ( | Roberts' Coiifereen were duly admitted- The Confereriee was then organized l»y the election of John 11. Xegley, of Butler, as Chairman, and Jarnes 4- Stone, of Conneautville, as Secretary. After discussing matters pertaining to Conference, they adjourned at I I p. m., till the following morning, in the meantime notifying Mr. Miller again of the time and plate tif liijjouriiriient, and reipiesting his attendance. Tiie Con ference again met in the mottling, and Mr. Miller's conferees u< t presenting themselves, a further adjournment was had till 2 o'clock Mr. Miller's confer ees ditl not put in appearance then, and there being no evidence of his de sire or intention to meet with the con ferees, the conferees proceeded to <|is etisS the interests of tliO party #nd their duty to their constituents. There seemed to be no other course open ex cept to proceed to make a nomination. After several ballots were taken Sena tor Roberts instructed his conferees to cast their votes for Mr. McJunkin, whereupon Mr. McJunkin was unani mously placed in nomination for Con gress atid after adopting appropriate resolutions the Conference adjourned nine die. In the meantime it was understood thiit Mr. Miller and his conferees ad journed to meet in Greenville on the sth of August next, but with whom, by what authority and for what pur pose, we are unable to say. lion. .1.
