Considerino; the OVerwhelmlng majority, for the democratie party in this district the conventiou was a remarkably good one, Ijoth n polnt of numbers and entliusiastii, whtcfa bodes well for the republloan party. The Dominee is a resident of PHtsfield, a tboroogh republican, a man of excellent abilities, and if elected will take rank second to none in the state sonate. (tilbert K. Opiuuii lliecandiilute for sec. retary of state, is :i man lio has conu; op simply and solely by bis mvn exertions.

Mr. Crozler claims tobe able to produce thtu letter, iïow can Allen secure the votes of those opposed to sumptuarv hiws after it Is shown that he coquelted wlth the prohlblllou vote'.'- Argus. The charge is a llat-footed falsehood. No such letter exists or ever exlsted, and the men who make the charge know it to be a falsehood. Such cheap clap-trap always reacts on the inventor. If you want to hear iome reliable talk about the issues of the day go over to Salem Station next Tuesday p, tn., iept. 28, and hear Hon. Cyrus O. Luce. He meets his fu6lon traducers and slanderers in a manly straijjht forward way.
