Remington Notes.

(The following items were received too late for publication last week.) This place was visited by the heaviest rain and thunder storm that we have experienced this year on Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, the storm last ing until after daybreak. The down pour of the rain was alamos constant,, and flooded the entire face of the earth; the thunder and lightening was terrific in the extreme. We have heard of no damage resulting from lightning, but the oats certainly must be badly injured as they are still nearly all in the fields. The Democratic Judicial convention for the 30th Judical Circuit of Indiana, composed of the counties of Benton, Jasper and Newton, was held in Goodland last Monday the 10th inst, at one o’clock p. m. Hon. Dawson Smith of Benton was made chairman and Joseph Pefley, also of Benton, was chosen Secretary. The chairman on taking the platform delivered an excellent speech on the financial pol.icy of the governmet, strongly opposing the single gold standard,and favoring the remonetization of silver. The business of the meeting now entered into by the appointment of a committee on credentials, which in a 'few moments reported the delegation from each county, fully represented, and that Bod ton was entitled to 28 votes, Jasper 20, and Newton 18. Wm. Darroch of Newton being the only candidate for judge, he was placed in nomination by acclamation. Nominations were than called for the office of prosecutor.

The judicial convention was then adjourned and the representitive convention composed of the counties of Jasper and Newton was'then organized by selecting A. D. Babcock, of Goodland, chairman. The chairman stated the object of the convention, and the following nominations were made: Hon. Wisely Buswell, W. W. Gilman and Dr. M S. Hunston, of Newton county, and Geo. 0. Stemble, of Jasper county. At the end of the"first ballot Dr, Hunston and Mr, Buswell withdrew and Mr. Gilman was nominated. Mr. Gilman was brought into the convention, notified of his nomination and asked to speak. He said, among other things, that the money question was the only one of absorbing interest to the great majority of the people. He has been interested in the silver question for many years and he said many things calculated to cause thought and make conyerts. The republican party, he said, was responsible for the downfall of silver and that it had now practically declared that the United States must be governed by finWHSlal laws enacted bv

England and other foreign nations. He had belonged to the party but could not swallow their inconsistency and, on that account, had they parted company. Hon. Frank M. Kistler, of Logansport, and Hon. W. W. Gilman, of Goodland, candidate for representive, will address the people of Remington on Saturday evening August 15, at eight o’clock, on the financial question.

The farmers are some of them very uneasy about their grain. The thrashing machines are so slow in coming round. Mr. Haley is stopping with Mr. Hastings. It is reported that a few mosquitoes were seen in this country a few weeks ago but the change in the atmosphere has caused them to go north. Mrs. Dowell spent a few days last week at Morocco.

The school house at Parr was crowded to its fullest capacity last Monday night, at the free silver meeting addressed by Walter Harrington, David Shields, Ernest Lowther and J. A. McFarland. The Union Township Free Silver League was organized and received twenty-six members as a starter. It was at this place after the public speaking a week ago last night that three young men, at the instigation of some over zealous Republicans, threw several eggs with such accurate ailn as to hit Mr. Harrington, his wife and her mother. It is fair to say however that though the boys were all sons of republicans, their act was wholly without sanction by their parents, and is deeply regretted by all fair minded citizens.

The Garden South.

The South iB destined to be, and is rapidly becoming, the garden of the United States. Here life is easiest to live; the rigorous winters do not eat up the frutts of the toil of summer, nor are the summers so trying as many northern people have supposed. “I used to live only half the year” said a northern farmer recently settled in the south, “and I used to work all the time then. Now I work half the time and live all the year through.”
