gates to the State Convention that

THI offiei al vote of the late state

lican for State Treasurer, a majority
of 45,205. The total Prohibition
rote was 18,531, and the Greenback-
Labor rote was 8.902.
CHAIRMEN of Republican County
Committees ud *ll other* interested
■honld bear in mind that delegated to
National Conventions mast be select
ed in the same manner that Congress
hmo are nominated. Therefore is the
importance of first determining id
each new Congressional district bow
candidate* for Congress are to be
nominated, as in the same way mast
tbe delegate* to tbe Chicago Conven
tion be chosen, and this under tbe
rales recently laid down by the Re
publican National Com mittee.
BY tbe call in another place it wili
be seen the Republican County Com
mittee will meet on Saturday week.
January 28, lor tbe purpose of ratify
ing or rejecting the new method pro
posed for ths nominating of candidates
for Congress in this district. If tbe
Committee approve tbe new method
then it will be necessary for the Com
mittee to apportion tbe county off
into 15 sub districts, for tbe election
ot Relegates,in the same, as provided by
new mode of nominating. Tbe Com
mittee will also have tbe fixing ol
the Primaries for this year, and say
ing whether there shall be one or
two of tbe same. Various other
matters of interest will likely come
before tbe Committee on tbe 38th.
In WHAT is known as the -'baby
ease," in which the Monks and Har
bison families are parties, we under
stand tbe Supreme Court, sitting at
Philadelphia, has refused to interfere
for tbe release of tbe parties now in
the county jail, The record of tbe
proceedings before the Snpreme
Court has not been received here as
yet, and hence it cannot be stated at
present jast what that Court has or
dered or directed in the case. Had
tbe application to theui been granted
the effect would have been tbe ad
mitting of tbe parties in prison to
bail until tbe Supreme Coart met at
Pittsburg in November next, when
tbe whole case would have been re
viewed. When tbe record is receiv
ed from Philadelphia a better knowl
edge of tbe matter will become
known.
A Big Gun.'
Pittsburgh has tbe credit of casting
for the Government a steel gun, made
o( "special refined Bessemer steel,"
and weighing 5 J tons. It is over 22
feet in length, with largest diameter
93 inches, muzzle 10 inches, aud bore
< inches at month and at powder
chamber. It is the first solid steel
gun cast in Pittsburg. Heretofore
such large guns were constructed on
the "built up" process.or in rectioneof
coils and spring This new experiment,
of solid construction in gunnery, is
pronounced a great success aud is a
great credit to Pittsburgh. It was
constructed by tbe Steel Casting Com
pany ot that city.
Lamar Confirmed.
Lucius Quintns Curtius Lamar, of
Mississippi, and late Secretary of the
Interior Department under President
Cleveland, has been confirmed by tbe
U. 8. Senate as a Judge of tbe Su
preme Court of tbe United States, to
wbieh office the President had nomi
nated bim There were some reasons
that made Mr. Lamar very objection

CONGRESS NOMINATIONS.
A New Plan Finally Agreed up
on for Making Them in this
25ih District.
A second session of the delegates
appointed by the Republican County
Committees of this district, Mercer,
B aver, Lawrence and Bntler Coun
ties, convened in New Castle on Tues
day last aud adopted a new mtthod
o' making nominations for Congress
The plan settled upon comes the
nearest the popular vote of any that
c >uld be devised, and in that respect
murt meet with general favor.
Each county is to have 15 delegates
in the district nominating coaveniion.
This will make a district Convention
composed of 60.
These delegates are to be elected
by the Republican voters, but from
sub districts of 15, into which each
County i<j to be divided. The differ
ent County Committees are to district
each couuty into these 15 sub dis
tricts. A Congressional delegate is
to be elected in each and get his cre
dentials from the sub district.
When electing these delegates the
voters can express at the same time
by their ballots, their choice among
candidates for Congress, and the
candidate having the highest voteebail
first receive the vote of that delegate
in the district convention.
All the above has to be ratified by
the different County Committees, but
as the plan was unanimously adopted
we presume this will speedily be
done.
The following is the account of the
proceedings as we find them in the
Pittsburg Dispatch of Wednesday.
HOW THE REPUBLICANS WILL MAKE
NOMINATIONS UNDER A NEW
SYSTEM.
The second session of delegates rep
resenting Beaver, Mercer, Butler and
Lawrence counties—the new Twenty
fifth Congressional district—convened

devise an improved way of making
Republican nominations. There was
not an absentee- After adopting a

trict is a part; that the delegates from
the respective districts shall vote iu

date who receives the greatest vote
in the sub district, so long as rules
berealusr to be adopted will permit.

couveutiou will be held in New Cas

Natural Gas Theories.
Mr. David Swiuif, in a contribution
to tho Chicago Journal, inclines to
ibe belief that ther* is not a little
merit iu tbe theory that the contract
ion of the earth has made millions
and billions of cubic feet of some kind
of inflammable air occupy a small
space at lasi and anxious to get fr»*e
It is not difficult to imagine that the
earth was hundreds of miles larger iu
diameter than it uow is, and that iu
cooling it subjected its contents to
that pressure which could make a
coal-Oid or a voleauic roek
Putting mere speculation aside, Mr
Swing makes this practical observa
tion:—"Millions of dollars will be in
vested in manufactories at gas wells
which millions would otherwise be
invested iu tho great cities. The
steam engine must follow the gas
vv« il, other things beinx equal. Thus
Chicago must find cheap fuel or wit-
JJCBS the diversioQ of steam power and
tbe closing of many shops which are
already in operation here. All power
comes from beat except waterfalls and
windmills il»*ut is the general source
of power: With coa' at s">, or $6. or
#7 a ton engines which drive m ch n
ery will seek for cheap hear,. This
city must enter into a k nd ol compe
tition with nature and make a cheap
fuel. Itoeednotbe quite as cheap
as natural gas, because natural gas
labors under the depressing effect of
uuc rtaiuty A cheap fuel which
will continue a hundred years as eas
ily as ten years is the kind of uel
will attract and satisfy capital. There
should be uo delay in tiudlug. if poa
eible, this form of substitute for gas
wells."
Every day's experience serves to
df luoustrate the truth of the abortion
that "the steam engine must follow
the jras well." The uew luel may be
shori-lived, as suggested, but ten, or
or twenty years of natural gas
in Western Pennsylvania and East
ern Obio would play havoc with the
manufacturing interests of those cities
too remote to avail ;hemselvuß of the
superior advantages of the gas The
superiority in the processes of manu
facture is an advantage in itself sulfi
cient to revolutionize the methods of
production in many branches of tne
chauical industry. It i 3 absoluteiy
certnin . therefore, that unless natural
pas is found near the principal centers
of manufacture, or some artificial sub
stiiute discovered, the steam engine
mu-t prepare to go to the gas well

Judicious Advertising.
There are various methods of ad
vertisiug, some good, some indifferent
and some worthless It is a singular
fact that those business men who are
so economically inclined 'that they
can nnver be persuaded to advertise
regularly, iu any established news
paper, are always investing their
money in worthless experiments Let
an entire stranger, with a smooth
tongue, come to the city and he ex
periences little or no trouble in secur
ing abundant advertising for any
catch penny scheme. Judicious ad
vertising pays, bat there is a heap of
it that is injudicious.—Oil City Bliz
zard.
The abo7e is very correct. Dur

: ne-<s men of Frankiin paid altogether
$l5O for printing ad vertisements on a
••dodger" that coat the advertising
schemer only the sum of sl6 and tw<>
dny»' work. The same amount of
advertising could be putin any news
paper of general circulation in the city
for three mootbs for the sum
paid. "Where are those dodgers
