Discussing the result of the repuV licau county convention the Pa ilium, immediately thereafter,, (issue of August 18th), felt constrained to cbeer- tho hwirts of the rank and file of its i»arty in the following strain : \It Ut» sati.<v«ig Mature of the sifciiKlwii that tho republican v«t«j in tho second <iiatrict is MORE THAN TWICE T&AT OF THE DKMOCRATS. and a division may .exist and-sliU not permit the election of a democrat/ 7 Now let us turn to the Palladium in its issue (Sopt. 22d) immediately following the democratic county con- vention. In it mark well, republican voters, what a sudden change has come over the spirit of its dreams. How encouragingly he pats your Hie- long political opponents ou the back and exclaims w there i* yet hope. 1 * After consuliiog the Almanac with ite eleetiou returns for tho years 1884, 18S5 and 1S87, your presumptuous dictator comes to the conclusion that \ a vote of tho same proportions this \year if tlio.rupubiicausshould divide \ equally, would elect Mr. Aubrey by '* 50 or 6tf plurality !\ And now mark hia remedy for so direful a result: '• A sure way to prevent .that calamity \ will be for republicans to give their \ votes to Mr. Hutching.\ The brazen effrontery of the Palla- dium clique surpasses that of the devil when ho implored a certain good DIAU to fall down and ivorsLip him. To ask sincere and patriotic republicans to cast their votes for a man who, backed only by a miserable ring of wire-pullers, having no immediate in- Icrests at stake in tii8 part of the county directly interested, and who was fairly and squarely defeated by legally elected delegates, is too ridic- nloua a proposition to be entertained for one moment. But the whole motive and object of this bit of \flattering unction\ to democratic souls is plainly apparent. Since the republican convention it had become a well known fact that many of the prominent members of the I democratic party all over the district, more especially in the northern towns, i where Mr. Oushman is so well known and highly respected, understanding the shameful treatment he had receiv- ed at the hands of the ring, were a unit almost in extending to him their earnest sympathies—even pledging th«ur votes. Tke Palladium- Hutch- china tricksters early discovered this! state of affairs, and hence must seek a counteracting influence. To meet th«' exigency a representative democrat in the north part of the district had to. be secured as a candidate for school commissioner. That this whole matter was well understood at the time of the meeting of the democratic convention last week we need no better assurance than the assertion of a violent Hutch- ins partisan made in our hearing in Bombay on Thursday of hist week. Cushman had the sympathies of the democrats of the lower towns, stood a fair chance to get their rapport, hence the necessity of securing a popular man in that party, in tho same section, to oppose him; thereby detracting an apparently important vote for ifr. Coahnian, not by »ny means with a h&pe of securing the election of the democratic nominee, but to add so many more votes to Hutchins. To bear u* out in sueh belief what better evidence U needed than tho sweet moicela of *' aid and comfort\ vouch- safed to the democracy of the second district by the Hutchius faction in their Palladium of last week ? Now, a few words with our honest fair minded, democratic readers in the second district. Your delegate* at the county convention last week put in nomination some very excellent men U fill the respective offices designated for them* More particularly we must mention the nomine** for sheriff, county treasurer and coroner. To the merits and capabilities of all these we intend to repeatedly call your at ton tion during the pendency of this campaign. We know that Many good And true men in your party abhor the detestable ring that have parceled Out the patronage of this county for years past Will yon, then, in the fall re- membrance of %U their past iniquities, and in their present diabolical, per- jury-resorbing scheme*, permit your- felres to be made instruments to the furtherance and perpetuation of their unprincipled tactic*? That the nom ination <rf Mr, A*\h r &y fo r l A y commissioner was prompted and brought about, with I,JO l>-lit>f that h an ereat would . va&ctabtcdly secure the election of Hutchins we are as confident as we are of pesning this article. With Mr. Aubrey's qualifications for the responsible position tendered to him by his follow democrats we shall have nothiug to say at this time, merely contenting ourselves by statinsr for lha benefit of these nnprinciplod wretches who have sought to reach office and power by the use (or abuse) of his name, that Mr. Jan. N. Aulirey, POSTMASTER of &ist Constable, is in tljjiblcfor the office &f School Comm**- aioner for tke Second District, or any other state or municipal office; that the fact of his holding a Federal appointment debars iiim from such ! Tims again have the deep laid schemes of the bolters suffered a signal \ niis- caniage,\ and* all their hopes and aspirations vauish into \ the air.\ Now lot tho perjury-condoniug rascals of the Palladium clique try their nefarious schemes once more. THE FATE OF THE CHICAGO ANARCHISTS. A feeling of relief seems to have taken possession of tho public mind since the Supreme Court of Illinois affirmed the sentence of the Chicago anarch is ^ is noticeable. The long delay of the court in coming to a con- clusion had encouraged a suspicion ,hat the court was dividod in opinion and that the condemned anarchists might escape the punishment of their crime. It was felt that this would encourage the lawless elensenl in the larger cities and lead to a repetition of rioting and bloodshed at no distant day. But the court finds no^cause to reverse or delay the sentence of the lower court The anarchists have no ouo to blame but themselves for the condition in which they now find themselves. It is not likely that any considerable delay in- tho execution of their sentence cau bo secured by their counsel; and their fate will servo as a warning to that portion of our foreign born population who seem to think that the United States i.s a lit place in which to show their hatred of aH. forms of government. It is high time that this impression was done away with; and there ceuld, of course, be no more forcible way to bring this about than by making an example of these reckless and lawless men, who attempted to put their theories into practice in Chicago. EXTRADITION LAW. It is announced that the committee appointed by tho inter-state extradi- tion conference has drafted a bill to be forwarded to the governor of each state and presented to congress with a memoral for its adoption, after the state authorities have suggested amend- ments that will have been passed up- on by the conference. The principal provisions of the present draft are as follows: u A person arrealedTn a state other than that in which the alleged crime was committed, may be bailed during extradition proceedings, but must present himself within twenty or thirty days for extradition. At the end of the timo, the accused shall be discharged, if the agent o£ the state in which the crime was committed, be not ready to receive him. Should the accused be not able to furnish bail, be shall be discharged after_Jhirty days* mprisoDiaent if the amount is not ready. The agent must have written authority from the governor of the state surrendering the accused, and any official using violence, threats or undue influence to eompol or induce an alleged fugitive to leave the state to whkh he had removed himself, shall be guilty of a felony, punishable witn from five to ten years' imprison- ment at hard labor. The prisoner shall net be arrested upon civil or criminal process, in the demanding state, until a reasonable time after the extradition proceedings, that he may have an opportunity to return to the state in which he was takea. Should a demanding governor bocojae satisfied that the extradition proceeding* have been invoked for private purposes, he may revoke the same and discharge the fugitive/' : TO BELIEVE THE MONEY STRINGENCY. On the 22nd the following circular was issued from the treasury depart meat at Washington: On> and a'ter thi* date the government will pur- chase daily until October 8, 1887, at the office of the secretary of the treasury, to be applied to the sinking fond, United States 4£ per cent bonds «HC2>1, i per cent bond»cf 1907, acts 1371, upon the following terms: The 4J per cent- bonds will be accepted at LOS 440 during the above stated period, the 4 per cent bonds during the remainder of the present month at 1.26, aai from October lat .to Oe- taber 8th 1.24, which prices include the accrued interest to tke 4ate of purchase. The aggregate amount of both eiaagfcs of bond.: fc. be accepted within the time above specified is not | to exceed $12,455,000. The offer should state.the specific character of the bonds, whether roistered or. coupon. No further bids for bonds as provided in circular No. 90» datnd Aug. 3. l$S7 f will be received after this date. The interest due Oct. 1, 1887, on United States bonds amount- ing to about £6,500,000 will l?e paid ou the 26th iast., without rebate. latterly of the minoer in which it has been treated aad naturally then turn to the United States for rapport.

HOW PUBLIC MEN ARE HON- ORED IN THE DOMINION. Hon. W. W. Lynch, member of the legislature of the Province of Quebec, and late Commissioner of Crown Lands, is no stranger to our people, having upon one #r two occasions visited thil section with Jud^e Foster. Week be- fore last this gentleman was honored with a celebration by hit* constituents in the charrmng Tillage of Knowltoa, which is described by a correspondent to have been more than •« ordinary success. It was a spontaneous, hearty gathering of -cpresontatiye men md representative women from every port of the ceunty, besides numbers fr*«n abroad,— Montreal, Quebec, Shcr broake, St. Johns, St:ui8tead, Mis^is- quoi, ShetTord, Ar^enlcuil, etc., send- ing strong contingents lo add force and weight to the demonstration. The picnic W:LS not designed as a political poic-woir —it was rather a personal mark of regru-d for on© who stands high in his countryman'* exteern, be he political friend or foe. The writer, after giving the names of a large number of the most prominent m«o of the Dominion and Province who were present, then fur- nishes a brief outline of the proceeding* of the day, a portion of which we copy in order that our readers may under- stand what kind of a home Judge Foster is the lucky possessor of in the Eastern Townships of Canada. * The Montreal and St. Johns visitors were conveyed from Farnham in a special train over the South Eastern and reached Knowltoa ahuut midd.iT. Here they had a hearty reception. The train drvw up opposite Jnd<;e S. W. Foster's bcaalifn! park, and the music >f two excellent Jt>rass bands—Knowl- ton and Sutton—greeted the passengers as they alighted. Both the park and village were in holiday attire. FlagBj banners and streamers were conspicuous from every point of view. Though late Reported for Tirs 8cx. FRANK UN COUNTY SUPREME COURT. MALONE, Sept. 37th. 1887.
