No consumer who willfully, or negligently, jennlte a waste of water can rightfully com plain when his supply is cut off.

A dollar siient in buying American made goods lieliig this country, whereas a dollar Kiit to some foreign country, when It could have been expended to just as good advan tage a home is an act of disloyalty to this country, and the sooner the people realize that patronizing home industries means patriotism to one's town, state and country, tin letter it will be for all concerned, all dung the Hue, from the fireside to the White House.

NEW JERSEY REPUBLICANS, j their Convention at Trenton Tottnj Wall , AtitmdeA. TRENTOH, Sept. 19 Tho Republican state convention met here this morning, j and li largely attended. Tho state Ro-1 publican committee selected Congressman Mahlon Pitney as temporary chairman. I The situation is very much mixed. Griggs and Koan are clearly in the load, but tbt votes which the other candidates will re ceive will prevent either of the leader getting enough votes on the first ballot to nominate. As between Griggs and Kean the former seems to have the advantage. Voorhoes and Ward are both banking on being nominated aa a compromise oandl date. The Ward strength, however, hat for the most part a second choice divided between Koan and Griggs, and it Is doubt ful if it can lie kept in line for Ward after one or two ballots. The complexion of the Kssex delegation, after it leaves Ward, will have much to do with the nominating of either Kuan or Griggs. Mr. Griggs' name will be presented by ex-enator Garrett A. Hobart, who, with Congrossmau Stewart, Senators AVilllnms and Thompson, ex-Spcnkor Holt aud Sheriff Toffey, of Hudson, are among his chief lieutenants. J. Gardner Roll, of Union county, will present Mr. Keen's name to the convention. Senator Voorhoes says he expects to have more than a hundred delegates, and he I counts upon holding the balance of powei In the convention anil receiving the nom ination as a compromise candidate. Son ntor Voorhces' supporters nro very snn guine. His nnmo will be presented by Pjuator Stokes. In a recent lettor to the manufacturers Mr. W. F. Benjamin, editor of the Spectator, Rushford, N. Y., says: "It may be a pleas ure to you toknow the high esteem in which Chamberlain's medicines are held by the people of your own state, where they must be best known. An aunt of mine, who re sides at Dexter, Iowa, was about to visit rue a few years since, and before leaving homo wrote me, asking if they wero sold here, stating if they were not she would bring a quantity with her, as she did not like to be without them." The medicines referred to are Chamberlain's Cough Itemedy, famous for its cures of colds and croup ; Chamber lain's Iaiu Balm for rheumatism, lame back, pains in the sido and chest, and Chsnilier lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Bejnedy for bowel complaints. These medicines have been in constant use in Iowa for aluiost a qunrtur of a contury. The people liavo learned that thoy aro articles of great worth and niorit, and unequaled by any othor.
