JL'NE 1, 13W CONSOLIDATED. THE ajrUATfON. OAMOtUON OtSTrtfCT Since la* week the republican pres- idential situation has not materially This copy of the NORTHERN TBIBC XE embodies the newspaper efforts of Gouverneur for thirty years, with one exception. The change we have brought about represents no decrease in the capacity of the town to sup- port newspapers, shows no decline of its business; of the enterprise for which it enjoys just fame. The one paper we shall now print can be made far cheaper than could the two, and as it will be a better paper, the public will, we are sura be better satisfied. Three papfera, each covering the same ground substantially, were in a sense a burden,and many so regarded them. Two papers are really necessary and the town will give each ungruging support. We fancy that there has been no transaction consummated in this locality of late of more import- ance to the community than the sale of the Herald-Times. It is every- body's business, everybody has a right to be interested and is. Three is a crowd, as the saying is, and crowds provoke bad temper and no end of harm. The air, we believe, will now be sweeter, the town a little more desirable as a place to spend one's days in. If this be true then are we a public benefactor. The limitations of country journal- ism are not appreciated by the peo- ple of the country. The city papers, made by the million from stereotype plates on rapid perfecting presses, snow down their avalanche of news daily at little cost And the country people, some of them, think it should cost no more to make for them a local journal just as big and just as good as the city paper. Would they stop to think the problem would be sim- ple; we need not go into the details of the case here. But however large the limitations the possibilities of a good county newspaper have not yet been reached, surely not in Gouver* neur. We are determined on a good long hunt after those possibilities, and believe we can find some of them. We wish to make the paper stand for something in the town and coun- ty. To represent sentiments which [ are right which are noble and of good report. We desire to antago- nize no proper enterprise and want the good will of all proper minded citizen*. We havt never been ac- cused of cowardice in attacking what seemed to us demanded attack. Very likely that reputation may be maintained. A newspaper can do much for the community, and the community can do much for its newspaper. One must help the other if either is to fully prosper. To this end we solicit the co-operation Q£OUT people—their trade, their good words, their sympathy and greeting—and promise our best endeavors to re- turn amply for value received. to Minneapolis and ssw anortrw the great convention will have been organised in the Queen City adjacent the great unsaltad tea. Blaine, Sphinx like, makes no sign to the ex- pectant millions who retard him earth's greatest statesman and want the opportunity of crowning him the peoples choice. He says no word in answer to the inquiring voices every- where—' % will he accept r Mr. Blaine has once said. 'lam not a candidate and my name will not go before tbe convention/' Language could not easily be framed more explicit. Did be mean it then' Mr. Blaine it an honest man Has he changed his mind, and will he recall the words then written r We think noL Tbe situation then as imperatively called for Blame as it does now. The wishes of the republican masses regarding himself have been an open book to the great secretary. He must know himself the idol of the American peo- ple, and to an extent without parallel in recant history. What will the convention do' What can a crowd on fire with a single purpose be ex- pected to do: An exchange tells of an Oswego pastor, whose name, by the way, is Ken yon, preaching last Sunday to the veterans who so got their hearts and sympathies, as he eloquently told the story of the war that the ecclesiasti- cal idea of church decorum was for- gotten and the veterans applauded freely, in which demonstration the audience at large joined. And why not? To sit still and scowl is not piety, and there is nothing in such action very inspiring to a speaker, and for a speaker to do his best he must have an audience in complete sympathy with him. The Metho- dists broke the ice in the early days* with their frequent and fervent amens. It was a characteristic way of expressing emotion and approval of the speaker. Throughout the eastern states it has been regarded tbe thing in most churches to sit up- right during the service and grin and bear it silently, or go to sleep. Go into some of the first churches in the west and applause by clapping of hands is as frequent and hearty as in secular gatherings. -•«•••- WHAT THEY SAY. -•» THE BOLTERS, The dandelion convention met yes- terdao in Syracuse, named John D. Kesnan, of Utica, chairman, passed a set of ringing resolutions, the most significant of which is : Riwlved, That this convention ap- prove, eodofse and point with pride to the administration of Ororer Cleveland, and recommend him to the Chicago convention for Domina- tion and to the democratic party and the patriotic people of the country for the ejection again to tbe presi- dency. A full contesting delegation was'/7>ra<V/ named for the Chicago convention. Let the musio go on. The tariff is a tax. Oh yes: Cleveland versus Hill. [ kodak against dandelion. Love pure! if ?Epidly cured and simple. Let tbe syrup flow. N. L Robinson, of Canton, is the delegate from this section to Chicago. It was announced in last week's Grouverneur papers that M. R Sackett, editor of the Northern Trib- une, had purchased the business, subscription list and good will of the Gouverneur Herald-fimes. The two papers are to be consolidated and will be run as one by Mr. Sackett. The move is an important and sug- gestive one. It leaves to the Trib- une and Free Press, a field where three papers were one too many. It shows that both publishers and people feel that the newspaper business is sadly overdone in this county. The Herald-Times has always been a staunch republican paper and no one trod the second time on the tail of its editor's coat. Under Mr. Sackett's management the paper will still be republican, and woe to the luckless wretch who rides tilt against his able and canst :<• j^n.— Xorurwl Xetrs. A short time since the Gouverneur Herald- Tl,n+* was sold to M. Pw. Sack-' ett, who has been the publisher of the NORTHERN TRIBUNE from the time of its establishment, five years ago. The two papers will be consolidated and conducted under Mr. Sackett's direction. He is a youn^ man of ex- cellent ability and is no novjee in newspaper work. He deserves and doubtless will enjoy a goodly degree of success. He \understands the needs of the locality in journalistic way, and has the enterprise to supply the demand satisfactorily.— Utica Press. M. R. Sackett, of the Northern Tribune, has purchased the plant of the^ Gouverneur Herald-Times and will combine the two papers, under the name of the Northern Tribune and Herald-Times. No town of the sss of Gouverneur can support three newspapers properly, and the con- solidation is a good thing.

There was one face missing that should hare been there and that one was none other than that rip roaring democrat Dan Ma^one, of Ogdsne- burg, collector of the port of New J. D. York during tbe Cleveland tration. His absence was noted and he was telegraphed in reference to being a delegate to the dandelion con- vention. Soon a reply came rushing over the wires that he would accept, and then the anti-snappers smiled. The leaders consulted regarding the proper persons to send as delegates to the Syracuse convention. At the conclusion of the confab the following deteeatee were named: Hon. Daniel Magone, Ogdensborg; James D. Easton, Gouverneur; Dr. D. M. Foss, Depeyster. The alternates named were W. P. Hendrick, DeKalb, Hobert A Morse, Morristown; Stephen Burtis. Gouv- erneur. The slim attendance at the conven- tion seemed to please the Hill men immensely and the jubilant chuckle they gave when the proceedings were over was significant. BOARD OF TRUSTEES.
