    ]i lv Violet. Mrs. Esther A. Piolet died at her home in Wysox at four o'clock Sun day morning Aug. 12, of stomach troubles, aged seventy years. She was the wife of the bite Jos. E. Pic let the extensive and widly known farmer, who died on the 19ih of last month. The Contract l.ct. The contract for the construction of what is known as the Binghamton and State Line railroad has been let, and the work is to begin at once. This is practically the Binglmnton end of tl'.e much talked of Bingham ton and Williamsport road. Another company has the balance of the route under consideration, and the Binuhamton Herald is of the opinion that the road will at once be carried through from Silver Lake, the terminus of the Binghamton road, to Williamsport. CoLUMHtrs. Ohio., Aug 10—John Vcrdon, a penitentiary convict from Cincinnati, w lio dropped dead from lieart disease, yesterday, predicted the da}' and hour of his death. When he was received at the prison he wrote tliis prediction on a slip of paper, which was given to another convict to keep. The paper was ex amined and found to be exactly true. When prosperity is brought about by the policy of the political party in power—such as was the case under the recent Harrison admiuiss tration—four years is entirely too short a presidential term ; but when it brings such disaster as we are ex periencing to-day, then four years is exactly three years, eleven months and twenty-nine days too long. Twenty-four hours of it would be plenty. Miss Emma Bates, candidate for state superintendent of pub lie schools in Minnesota, has set the politicians to talking over the deal which she made with her most formidable op ponet, by which he is to withdraw, stump the state in her favor and in the event of her election is to become her deputy and husband. If the women are to adopt such tactics in politics when they finally secure their political "rights," married can didates for ollice will have very little show. Daniel Reed, an employe on the Lyon's saw mill, near Tivoli, met with a sad accident on Tuesday evening, which terminated in lii's death on Wednesday morning, He wag repairing the gearing over the edger saw while it was m motion, when his foot slipped and lie fell on the deadly instrument and was cut up and mangled frightfully. He was taken to the \\ iiliamsport hos pital immediately, where his left leg was amputated above the knee. The injuries were too great, however, and he succumbed to death on Wednesday morning.

McHenrv, of Dusliore, secretaries, With the or ganization effected, credentials of tin 1 several delegates were called for and presented. The chairman then announced that all was ready for business and that nominations were in order. Congressman came tir&t 011 tic list. Hon. C. 11. Buckalew, of Col umbia county, was the only candi date placed before the convention tor this office, and he WHS unani mously nominated. The congres sional conferees are : J. W. Flynn, of Laporte, and A. L. Smith, of Forksville. Senator came next. J. Ilenry Cochran, of Lycoming county, was unanimously nominated for this of lice, and his conferees are: Thomas Fell, of Beruice, and P. M. Crossley, of Lnportc. Hon J. A. Sittser, of Tunkliau noek, was nominated for President ljudje. His conferees are: L. 15 Speaker, ot Hills Grove, and Geo. Yonkin, of CLerry. The nomination of Representative was nest on the list. George Strcby, ofDushore, and Ambrose Farrell, ot Lopez, were nominated and a bal lot taken, resulting as follows: Stre j by had !7 votes and Farrell 18. Far- ! rell receiving one majority was made j the choice of the convention. For District Attorney, K. .1. Mul- : lew, of Onshore, was nominaVcd for | this office, and having uo oppo-ition was nominated by acclamation. J. I>. Magar-le, of Soncstown, was nominated for County Auditor in place of Mongan G ivitt, resi; n V Mr. Magargle's name will nit appeal ! od the ballot, as the court appoints vacancies of this kind. It is, l.o\ve\cr, a good endorsement of Jacob, and the court will have 110 hesitency in giving him the appointment. The boys say the fun came last. It was in making the selection for Jury I Commissioner. E. G. Rogers, 01 ; 101 klaud, llenry|S .vank ot Davidson, j and Chas. Hugo, of Elkland, were placed in nomination. The first ballot resulted as follows: Swank had 14 votes. Rogers 11, and Hugo lU. Mr. Hugo then withdrew his nami and left the room. While he was going out Mr. Caseman. who serv ed as organist, struck up a dirge and the convention was in an nproai of laughter in three seconds, and it j was several minutes before quiet was restored. They then continued theii balloting on Jury Commissioner. The second ballot completed tin J work of the convention and was as j follows: Swank PJ, Rogers It; | Swank was made the nominee and the convention adjourned. NOTES. It was the first Democratic con j vention ever held in Forksville. | County Treasurer, A. L. Smith, is I responsible for it. Gus, is a good i wire puller. Our Democrats complain and say the chairman of their standing com J inittee had the conferees slated, and that he will be responsible for the outcome. Judging from the speech of Demo crat-. present, it wasu't a harmonious convention by aov means. '1 he usual resolutions were read and adopted. Judge Siltscr and Mr. James Pi att, of Tunkhannock, and Hon. C'has. It. Buckalew, of Bioomsburg, were present. Editor Streby is proud of his vote in the convention, and ho has a right to be. The woikers in his party were all against him. Some sny there is a ring in the Democratic party. If so, it should be busted. Mr. l'atsy Connor, Sullivan coun ty's candidate for congressman, did not attend the convention, lie ap prehended that his would-l>e<>f''iends \ had whipped him and did not go. The manner in which Patsy has been treated in this campaign, is shame ful. QOPBT PKOCLAMAIioX. Wukkkas, Hon. J A. SiTTsni. Prcsi d< in .Indue I lor.orali'e- John Yonkin and M.).
