The Republican Convention for the se
lection of delegates to the State Conven
tion will meet here this evening. A sys
tematic effort has been made by a few
dissatisfied, ambitious, would-be leaders,
to create an anti-Grant sentiment and be
cause they believe somebody would be
more injured by having Blaine for the
next president, instead of some of the
other gentlemen named in connection
with the office, have laid their plans to
secure an instructed delegation to the
Ilarrisburg Convention. So far as this
borough is concerned, the scheme failed
not because the Repuclicans here are op
posed to Blaine, but they are for harmo
ny in the State Convention, and in favor
of a delegation to the National Conven
tion who will honestly endeavor to com
pass the nomination of the strongest man,
and to accomplish such an object, Brad
ford county, and even Pennsylvania, may
be compelled to forego personal preferen
ces.
There are good men in the county who
can be trusted to gi> to Ilarrisburg and
honestly represent the Republican senti
ment of their constituents, without being
instructed. To send delegates who could
not be depended upon, if uninstructed
would be the worst folly, as they could,
and would undoubtedly find some pretext
tor disregarding the instructions, or at
least of rendering them nugatory.
We do not believe the Republicans of
this county desire to throw any obstacles
in the way of success in the Presidential
canvas, and no man who is fit to repre
sent the patriotic sentiment of Ttradford
and will not do so unselfishly and with
out constraint should be elected delegate.
The Convention which meets this eve
should act wisely and see that the dele
gates to the Slate Convention are men
who will go to Ilarrisburg determined to
act for the best interests of the Republi
can party; men who publicly avow their
desire for the position that they may gain
some advantage over political rivals
at home, should be given to understand
that the party has a higher mission than
aiding the petty ambition of malcontents
and fault finders.
The Coming Weather
Professor Vennor, the Canadian weath
er prophet, whose previous prognostica
tions have been verified with wonderful
accuracy, has been making a study of
New York state weather, and furnishes
our people, through the columns of the
Argus, with a hint of what is in store for
them the coming months. The following
are his predictions:
GEOLOGICAL SURVEY ' F CANADA. |
MONTREAL, January 22, IS,so. j
7b the Argus:
Mild as the weather has been through
January, it would be foolish of us were
we to commence talking about a mild
winter (as some of the newspapers are
doing), before we are "out of the bush,"
for February looks black and forbidding
and very icy-breathed. I have already
predicted for this month two sharp peri
ods of weather for Canada, and these
may possibly extend over a considerable
portion of the Northern United States, I
• send this further notice of them. One of
the heaviest snow falls of the winter is
likely to come upon us on the 2d or ;id of
February, and occasion deep drifts and
railaoad blockades. Following this im
mediately, a cold snap will set in of con
siderable severity, lasting some four or
more days. Next w ill come a period of
mildness, even warmth with rain and
slush up to about the lf>th or 16th. The
16th will give up the second heavy snow
fall of the month, with drifts again, and
another railroad blockade. Between the
20th and 25th the second cold term will
1
probably set in, and this bids fair to be j
very severe, and occasion some very low
thremometer readings. Thus, with the
exception of the one considerable thaw
in tins month, February will be an ex
ceedingly wintry month. The 17th and ■
21st of March will again give heavy snow j
falls, and it is probable that in this month j
we will have more snow than at any time
previous during the winter of 1880. Such 1
is the substance of my predictions for the j
winter we are in. Yours truly,
IIKNRY G. VKNNOH.
