A Telling Law.

Disastrous Storm in the East.

A drought of several weeks' durat/on in the East terminated w th one of the he ivlest rainfalls recorded in the la=t fori,- years. Repoits aie printed from New York citv, Poughkeepsie, Newburg and Port Jervis, in New York; Paterson, Bordent wn and Pla’n-fi.-ld, in New .Terser; R fleigb, in North Caroliiri. and elsewhere, all placing the rainfall at five inches as a m'nmium, and in one instance (Paterson) giving fourte m inches as the depth of water which fell w thin inrtv-e'ght hours. At Plainfield, N. J., a bridge gave wav, throwing a crowd of sightseers in the water, all of whom, it is probable, were li-heil out, as no bodies were found. The loss of life is small, as human beings very generally come in out of the wet. but the railroad companies are heavy losers. The points mentioned as having sustained heavy losses by the tremendous rain-fall and the rapid rise of rivers which immediately followed include, in NewJersey, Paterson, Princeton. Trenton, Hoboken. Hackensaet. Bordentown, Plainfield and New Brunswick, while from Waterbury, Conn, Philadelphia, and Fredericksburg. Ya, reports are received of gieat destruction and damage. Bridges, dams and trestles were • carried off, and washouts on railroads numerous.

PARTY CONVENTIONS.

Synopsis of the Doings of a Few of Them. Their Declarations of Principles, Candidates, Etc. MASSACHUSETTS DEMOCRATS. The Democratic State Convention of Massachusetts convened at Boston and nomi' nated Gen. B. F. Butler for Governor by acclamation. The remainder of the ticket is as-follows: Lieutenant Governor, Samuel W. Bowerman; Secretary of State, D. N. Skilling; Treasurer and Receiver William A. Hodges; Auditor,. John P. Sweeney; Attorney General, George T. Very. The platform declares in favbr of the nation’s supremacy within constitutional limits, without touching upon the State's integrity; demands equal rights, protection, privileges and burdens for all citizens, regardless of sex or race; a free ballot and a fa r count; honest and economical expenditure of public moneys; r; d cal reform of the civil service, bastd u ou Pendleton’s bill and Willis’ anti-assess-ment measure; declares against sumptuary law-; which infringe upon "the sacred rights of public liberty,” and pledges the party to support all reasonable legislation tend ng to lessen hours of labor anil to increase and protect the wages of laborers. Following is the tariff plank: "We demand thorough and immediate reform of the tariff. We call upon Congress to reform the present war taxes, that hundreds of millions may not be, as now, needlessly extracted from the earnings of our people to lie in the treasury as a temptation to wicked and reckless appropriations for extravagant public buildings and useless and wasteful river and harbor bills; that no taxes should be levied upon the necessaries of life or upon raw material which is not found or produced in our country; that the tariff shall be so judiciously adjusted that American commerce shall be fostered, and, above all, American labor elevated and amply rewarded. We affirm that all these results can be fully realized under a tariff limited in amount to the sum necessary and adequate for revenue.” NEW YORK REPUBLICANS. The State Convention of the New York Republicans was held at Saratoga The first ballot for Governor gave Charles J. Folger 223, Alonzo B. Cornell 180, James W. Wadsworth 09, John H. Starin 19, and John C. Robinson 0, with 249 necessary to a choice. On the second ballot, after innumerable changes had been announced, Folger was nominated by 257 votes, Cornell receiving 2”2, and Wadsworth 18. The result was greeted with tumultuous cheers. Warner . Miller, United States Senator, said the friends ' of Gov. Cornell had labored incessantly to secure his nomination, and moved that the nomination of Judge Folger be made unaniI inous. This was done. The ticket was completed' as follows: Lieutenant Governor, B. Platt Canrenter; Chief Justice Court of Appeals, Judge Andrews; Congressman -at-Large, A. B. Hepburn. The platform declares in favor of ‘•honest - money, pure elections, the regulation ’ of traffic in intoxicating liquors, the protection of home industry, and the necessity of restricting the power and'inliueuce of corporations;” declares that "monopolies oppressing the people or unfairly discriminating against local interests are wrong in principle and should not be tolerated; that stringent legislation should be enacted to secure purity an 1 honesty in the primary elections, and that all possible safeguards should be thrown about these sources of political action of the people; that, while there are varying opinions on the sale of liquors, we subscribe to the principle that . the propositions on that subject, like allotliI er propositions for change in the fundiunani tai law. ought to be submitted to popular vote; that the civil service should be placed upon a proper basis by adequate legislation, so as to give facilities for the execution of the law now upon the statute book, with a competitive test for admission to the service so arranged as to secure the necessary qualification for the position, together with a fixed term for the incumbent, removal from office during the term of his appointment to be only for cause. ” The national and State administrations are indorsed, an I President Arthur is lauded for his veto of the River and Harbor bill.

MASSACHUSETTS REPUBLICANS. The Republican State Convention of Massachusetts, which convened at Worcester, was presided over by Senator Hoar. The followhig ticket was nominated: Governor, Robert R Bishop; Lieutenant Governor, Oliver Ames; Secretary of State, Henry B. Pearce; Treasurer and Receiver, Gen Daniel A. Gleason; Auditor, Charles R. Ladd; Attorney General, Edgar J. Sheridan. The platform condemns fraud in elections, expresses admiration for the action of the Republicans iii Congress in the contested-election eases, asks for a revision- of the tariff and a reduction of taxation, and indorses the administration of President Arthur as "wise, honest and patriotic.” The following is the civil-sei vice reform plank of the platform: "The work of reforming the civil service, which was commenced by the Republican party, and in favor of which it alone stands committed in declaration and in any measure of practice, is becoming more generally recognized as of paramount importance apd essential to the security and permanence of our institutions. While indiscriminate censure of our civil-service servants is flagrantly unjust, the evils inseparable from the present system are confessedly grave. Merit, not patronage, must be the basis of official tenure. As initiatory to a complete remedy, we earnestly demand such legislation concerning subordinate offices as shall embrace the following provisions: 1. Appointments shall be made only upon open, impartial, practical tests of the fitness of applicants, giving due preference to persons disabled in the military or naval service of the country! 2. No removals shall be made without cause, or for partisan reasons, or for the failure to perform partisan service, 3. Superior qualifications and real merit, demonstrated by the actual performance of duty, shall constitute the best title to continuance aiid promotion in the service. 4. We unhesitatingly disapprove of any political assessments or demands for contributions. under the express or Implied threat < f removal from office as the penalty for non-com-pliance. or under any other pretext whatever. -I'bc salary of the office-holder is Ids compensation tor services, not a fund subject to draft for party-uses, And we go further. Free government. can be maintained only when the convictions and choice of the voter find expression in his ballot, uncontrolled by fear or purchase. MISSOURI REPUBLICANS. The Republican State Convention of Missouri. called in opposit on to the decision of the St ile Central Committee, convened at Jefferson City and chose Judge Chester 11. Krum, of St. Louis, as prosid ng officer. David W-girr,. of St. Louis, was nominated for Supreme Judge and Co'. 11. 11. Hunt of Kansas City, for Railroad Commi-s oner. The following platfonn was adopted: The Republican party in Missouri, in convention assembled, do hereby declare their political faith as follows: 1. Wc reaffirm our allegiance to the fundamental principles heretofore announced and successfully put in practice bv the Republican party of the nation, to-wit: Equal civil and political rights for every adult citizen, without distinction of race, color or religion; the maintenance of the national Union as the indispensable condition of national and individual freedom and prosperity; the faithful discharge of every pecuniary obligation of the nation • a stable and uniform currency, based not on promises, but on convertibility on demand with the recognized stan lard of values of the world: duties for revenue to be imposed so as to give all needed and reasonable protection to American industry without favoring monopolies; faith in the progress of civilization, and, as a necessary means tow rd and result of such progress, the continued improvement, reformation and readjustment of our political and civil institutions. 2. We add the tribute of an unfeigned sorrow to the universal testimony of mingled grief and respect borne by the civilized world to the exalted personal worth and statesmanlike qualities of President Garfield, whose illustrious career was cut short by an assassin’s hand. To Fri -ident Arthur v.e tin ier assu: ances of our hearty support in till efforts to conduct the administration of public ass irs for public good,and express our gratification at the broad and national views set forth in his special message of April 17, 1882. recommending the improvement of the navigation of the Mississippi river. :•>. It is a cardinal principle of our political faith as a nation that all povzer is derived from the people. From tills it necessarily follows that the powers and dufiesof the committees of party organizations have uo greater scope than that implied and understood in their appointment, the time limit, of t heir authority being the management of a State or local canvass in obedience to express instructions, if any, from the party appointing them, and calling the party together in council or convention upon the eve of an election. 4. We affirm that the undivided liberty of the citizens should be subject to Governmental control only so far as demanded bv the general welfare; that it is the duty of the State to so legislate as to do the greatest good to the greatest number of its inhabitants. Recognizing these principles, and recognizing that the intemperate use of intoxicating liquors jeopardizes the safety, health and morality of any people among whom they are tolerated, we believe and declare that it. is the duty of the State to restrain the use of Intoxicating liquor and reduce its harmful effect to a minimum. To this end we demand a vigorous enforcement of the existing license laws

• ■ and the immediate enactment and faithful execution of such fmther statutes as shall enable the people of the several localities and subdivisions of the State to determine for themselves whether dram-shops shall exist among them or not; also, a large increase of the cost of licenses, so that the liquor traffic shall bear its just proportion of taxation and be conducted by responsible persons; also that persons engaged in said traffic ehall be made civilly liable at law in damages for injuries to persons resulting therefrom, and •for the effective punishment by impris nment of all persons violating said laws, so that a strict and adequate control of said traffic may be maintained wherever it is permitted, and we further believe that a rigid and impartial enforcement of laws, such as are above proposed, would furnish a more complete and practical >emedy for the evils of intemperance than any attempt to enforce general prohibitory laws against adverse local sentiment. r>. We denounce as destructive, not only to the welfare and permanence of the party, but also to free republican institutions, the vicious and corrupt system of “boss” rule, by means of which designing men have sought to pervert and abuse, for their personal profit, the party organization, whose only legitimate end is the combined action of free inen in support of definite political principles sincerely held, and, since '‘bossism,” the ulcer of American politics, has notoriously grown out of abuses of political patronnge, commonly known as the spo Is system, we hereby emphasize and renew the demand that the civil service, State and national, be so reformed by law that the appointments to subordinate civil’offices shall in no ease be Imstowed in payment for party service, but shall be open to every citizen for the sole of merit and ascertained fitness therefor, and that removal froqj office shall not be at caprice or for the benent of would-be autocrats, but solely for good and sufficient and public cause. fi. We believe that the safety and perpetuity of republican government depends upon the intelligence and education of the citizens, and that it is •the duty of the State to afford the amplest facilities tor the education of the masses at public expense, and we demand that the pub-lic-school system of this State be made so comprehensive as to afford in all parts good school facilities for at least eight months’ school in every year. We arraign the Democratic party for their shameful neglect to provide suitable legislation tor the public schools of the State, by reason ot' which the revenue necessary for their support lias )>ecome depleted and the law left in such a contused condition as to greatly hamper the working of any system. 7. We also arraign the Democratic party of this State for a notorious disregard of the institutions and statutory provisions of the State against the consolidation of railroad corporations operating and controlling parallel and competing lines, in open violation of unmistakable and plain constitutional enactments. We have seen in our State parallel and therefore competing lines practically consolidated, to the injury of the people and in defiance of their expressed will, without any attempt upon the part of the Democratic executive officers of the State to prevent or undo.the wrong or bring the transgressors to justice. NEBRASKA REPUBLICANS. The Republicans of Nebraska met in State Convention at Omaha and placed In the field the following ticket: Governor, James W. Dawes, Crete; Lieutenant Governor, A. W.

Agee, Hamilton county; Secretary of State, E. P. Raggen, Lancaster; State Auditor, John Wallicks; Superintendent of Public In>,ruction, W. W. Jones; Commiss oner of Public Lands and Buildings, Glen Kendall; State Treasurer, Lorain Clark; Attorney General, Laac Powers, Jr.; Regent of the State University, C. H. Gere. The convention indorsed the nomination of A. J. Weaver in the First and E. K. Valentine in the Third Congressional districts by the regular Republican Con ventions,and adopted the following platform: Resolved, That the Republicans of Nebraska, in convention assembled, stand by the fundamental principles ot the Republican party as enunciated in an unbroken line of national and State platforms, the chief of which are free labor, free speech, the right of every qualified citizen to vote once in every election under the restriction of just and equitable ele.ction laws, free, non-ssetarian schools, a sound currency on a specie basis under national control, the raising of national revenues by taxation of luxuries Smd articles of consumption not essential to the comfort and well-being of the people and from a tariff on imports, so adjusted as to protect the investment of capital in home industries, and legislative control of corporations. Resolved, That we uphold and maintain the enforcement, by well-considered legislation, of the change in our great organic law that prohibits unjust discrimination and extortion by railroad corporations. We look to the honesty and courage of the people in their political capacity to repel the encroachments of corporat e power upon the rights and principles of citizens on the one hand, and on the other to deal justly and fairly with all property interests under whatever name and form, without unjust discrimination or extortion in the matter of levying taxes or regulating prices of commodities or charge for services. Resolved, That the policy of the State Board of Lands and Buildings favoring the leasing for terms of vears of our school, university and Agricultural College lands at a fair rental, in preference to selling the same under th? option given by law, ujeets with our approval as the best possible method ot' preserving the heritage of our children, and providing regular and increasing revenues for educational purposes.

A platform was adopted, which arraigns the Republican party for its gift of lands to railroad jobbers; arraigns the Republican majority in Congress for failing to reduce taxation/ and favors such tariff as shall best serve the interests of all classes. It condemns the River and Harbor bill, and declares that in nominating the Secretary of the Treasury for Governor “we see the alarming power of the Government to control State elections;’ - holds the Republican administration responsible for unredressed wrongs upon our foreign-born citizens; charges the Republican party in the State with having refused to renominate its Governor because he dared to use the veto power against the demands of the dangerous moneyed clement of the State; favors the local self-government of cities; favors the passage of general laws providing for security against frauds at elections; declares that all monopolies and corporations should be held subject to the laws of the States, and that corporate property should pay a fair proportion of public burdens.

Powers; Judge of the Supreme Court, Vincent D. Markham; Secretary of State, F. J. Johnson; State Treasurer, Dennis Sullivan; Congressman-at-Large, S. J. Wallace.

The spoils system and the assessment, of public servants for political purposes is denounced. The remnant of the public domain shall be reserved elclueivelv for actsettlers as homesteads; the sinking of artesian wells and the construction of reservoirs in arid portions of the public domain under appropriations by Confess is asked; the remonetization ’ of silver 1 is commended; condemns such un- ■ necessary and oppressive taxation as results in an annual surplus of over $150,000,000; the present tariff is une- I qual aud oppressive, favoring certain interests and localities; the main purpose of a tariff should be for revenue and not for the special protection of any class of per- i sons, industries or manufacturers; con- 1 demns as cowardly and evasive the recent ■ action of Congress in attempting to delegate the performance of a duty respecting the , tariff to a packed and itinerant commission.

Don’t Be Discouraged.

Because it happens that you have failed to find health and strength by dosing yourself with bitters and alcoholic preparations, you should not grow despondent. The Queen of strengthening tonics that will protect and save you is Dr. Guvsott’s Yellow Dock and Sarsaparilla. It also contains Juniper, Iron, Celery and Calisaya. Ask your druggist to get it for you. Among the writings the late Senator Hill found among his papers, he thus refers to his college career: “I promised my father that all my college expenses of any kind should not exceed S3OO per annum. I promised my mother I would take the first honor in my class. I redeemed this promise. The proudest dav of my life was when I wrote to my parents that I had taken the first honor in my class.” It is stated that a block of creosoted pine, in use in the street pavement in Galveston for s.ven years, was recently examined and found to have lost but an eighth of an inch. Mr. Worden Mullins, of Circleville, 0., writes: “I am an old man, 71 years old, and my wife is 70. We attribute our good health firincipally to the fact that Dr. Guysott's Yelow Dock and Sarsaparilla is the only medicine we use when we begin to feel weak and unwell. ” The suffering in Germany for Lick of employment is great, and the natural gain in population is about 500.00(1 a year. Under such ein-umstances, several German statesmen are convinced that emigration is inevitable, but they have begun to argue ihui, the great stream of people pouring out. might bettor be utilized for the benefit of Germany than enriching America, England and many other countries all over the world. But colonization has not yet been favorably looked upon by the German Government, whose aim is the concentration of its powers within its own compact domain.
