at Ilarrltburo, Wednesday, August 19,
1891, at 10 o'clock A. 31., for the purpose of plac
ing in nomination candidates for the offices of
State Troisursr ana Auditor General, or the
wmlnatlon ofeluhteen candidates for Delegates-
fit-Large to the Constitutional Convention pro
dded for in the Act of Assembly approved June
19, 1691, and for the transaction of such other
business as may be presrntetU
Koticeis especially directed lathe fad thot, in
accordance with the provisions of the last men-
ttoned act, each Senatorial district is entitled to
a representation of ihreede'egates in said Con
stitutional Convention, two of whom only canbe
members of the majority party in said district.
The electors of each district are therefore re
quested to make proper nominations for dele
gales to said convention, the rules governing the
mminc'ton of candidates for S ate Senator to
be applicable.
In this connection the Clialrman desires to call
the attention of Republican voters to the recom
mendation of the State Convention of 1832, that
"they allow the greatest freedom in the general
participation the primaries consistent with
the preservation of theparty organization."

ance Republicans aro supporting their
party, the alleged Alliance Democrats
are urging on tho movement with re'
uiarkable energy, throwing dust in the
eyes of the Republican contlgent, but
resolved to vote hereafter as heretofore
for the Demooratlo party and the Solid
South. That the so called "Peoples
Party" is not intended to mean Deni'

one, except the duped Alllanco.Repub

likely they will do anything of the
kind. To destroy him is to destroy
Ohio prestige at the National Capital,
and one can scarcely believe that men
in sufficient numbers can bo found in
tho Buckeyo state to partlclpitate in
any such suicidal policy. Sherman
may be old and crabbed, but he pos
sesses a wonderfully well equipped
mind; an equipment that can illy be
spared at the council board of the
Nation. He should be retained In his
present position unless tho people
should take it into their heads to boost
him a notch higher in Hue of political
advancement.
The Erie Veterans' Homo is just
now in a deemed turmoil, it was
claimed by the management that the
inmates received too much money on
pension days, that It caused disorder
and thatwhere the veteran had n de
pendent family, tho money va9 often
diverted from it. So an order was
made that eighty per cent, of tho pen
sion money must be paid to tho au
thorities of the home, and dependent
families would be cared for from the
fund thus made. This, the veterans
declared, was unlawful and unjust and
they appealed to a higher authority,
which has just decided In favor of the
regulation, and many have chosen to
leave the homo rather than turn over
their peusions.

Everything is In the wildest confusion
at Cherokee and Correctlonvllle. It Is
now known that six persons met their
death In the country round about the
latter plnce, and the number is reported
increased to eight.
Houses, barns and outhouses were
flouting lu the Little Sioux pustCherokoo
all day. No one knows where they come
from.
The following additional particulars of
tho llood at Cherokee have been received:
Tho wagon bridge over the Sioux, south
of the town, went out at ten o'clock at
night. This was followed by all tho
houses on tlio Hat In that part ol tho
town, more than 100. The number of
people driven from their homes was be
tweeu 1,600 and 2,000. Tho river rose
until 8 o'clock, at that time being ten
feet higher than was over knowu. Every
bridge across the Sioux river, botli wagon
and railroad, is gone between here and
Onawn, and probably every bridge in
Cherokee County, on tho Sioux river.

THE EXPERTS' REPORT.
Hi-Clty Trcnuurer llardtloy'a Statement
to bo Torn to Bhreils.
Philadelphia, June 20. .The mayor's
experts, Taylor Faunco, Lawrence Brown
and Thomas W. Barlow, are now prepar
ing a report whioh is likoly to toar ox
City Treasurer Bardsloy's statoment to
shreds. To-day Mr. Barlow Is busy
writing the report, which will be finished
and presented to Mayor Stuart on Satur
day or Monday next.
Mr. Brown was disposed to be reticent
about the nature ot the report to he pre
sented, but it was learned that tho ex
norts have not enough information to
totally disprove Bardsloy's statement. It
Is said that in direct contradiction of
Bardslev's statoment it will be shown
that 51UU.U0U ot tne monoy wont into
the Bradford mills, and that since Bards
ley became city treasurer fully $3,000,000
have passed through the Koystono Bank
in a fund from which Bardsley drew
various amounts to pay the expenses of
the Bradford mills.
Mr. Graham was asked when Bardsley
would bo brought up for sentence. He
said he did not know, ns Bardsley's
statemout Is being investigated to ascer
tain whether or not it is true. "If it is
true," said Mr. Graham, "why, of course,
he Is entitled to any benefit which may
result from his telling the truth. It it
injnot true, why it is information for the
court to act upon."

At tho trial ot tho Camp dlvorco case

nnd testified tlint it was not an uncom

Tho "Siego of Bebastopoi" is now being
reproduced at Harrisburg at a cost of $20,
000 for ten exhibitions and from 10,000 to
15,000 people wltnoseos it daily, traveling
Irom all parts of tho stato to witnosa tho
spectaclo. It has boen suggosted that a
sham baltlo bo fought at Lakesido In Sep
tember and that oithor Shenandoah or
.Uahanoy City tako tho initiative Tho
latter place being nearest to Lako
sido and having a military com
pany would perhaps bo tho most suila
blo field for the start. It would bo a big
card and no less than 10,000 people bo
induced to witness It. Of courso, it should
be an elaborato affair and sevoral compan
ies should participate in it. No better
placp .han Lakeside could be selected.
