REPUBLICAN NOMINATIONS. ' FOB president, JAMES G. BLAINE, of Maine. FOB VICE PRESIDENT, JOHN A. I.OCAN, ef Illinois. HENRlf B. HARRISON. It is pleasant to find among the delegates to the convention which is to be held to-day such a general kindly feeling towards the Hon. Henry B. Harrison of this city. There has been no effort made to "push" Mr. Har rison's nomination. None of his numerous friends have been asked to work for him. He has not even "authorized" anybody to say that he was a candidate for the nomina tion. He has not in any way sought it, nor does he now seek it. This is a rare attitude in politics nowadays, but it has its merits. Mr. Harrison evidently believes that the peo ple have not yet lost the power of choosing their own leaders, and he is content to let them do it. But notwithstanding the fact that no emis saries of Mr. Harrison have been going about the State seeking to pledge delegates to his support, not a few delegates have come to the convention with the purpose of working for his nomination. They and the people who sent them know how .fit he is to be governor of Connecticut. They know of his unstained character, his high-mind-edness, his great ability, his learn- ing and his knowledge of the affairs of the State. They know that he would adorn the office of governor and do much to add to the reputation of Connecticut Therefore, without being "buttonholed" or "worked," they desire his nomination. j We do not need to enlarge upon Mr. Har rison's fitness for the honor. . This is freely admitted. In addition to this there are ex cellent reasons why he should be nominated which can be spoken of without doing the other candidates any real or seeming injus tice. It is very important this year that the State tioket should be the strongest that can be made up. All things considered, is not Mr. Harrison the strongest man who can be nominated? Will he not receive the votes of most or all of the Independents? Will not his vote in thiB city, the stronghold of the Democrats, be large? And will he not get the full Republican vote in all parts of the State? Will not his nomination harmo nize the party when some other nomination would tend to disorganize it? We commend these questions to the candid consideration of the delegates, who by this time thoroughly understand the situation. The Republicans of New Haven are not working against any of the other candidates and they do not nnduly urge the nomination of Mr. Harrison. Still, they are satisfied that his nomination would be the wisest thing the convention could do.. EDITORIAL NOTES. We publish this morning Governor Cleve land's letter of acceptance. It has the great merit of brevity. New Orleans is experiencing the inconven iences that must always arise from even a temporary neglect of streets. The health de partment having finally shown signs of ex istence it is found that there is more danger in raking up the accumulated filth in hot weather than in leaving it alone. Messrs. Plympton and Drinkwater, who have left the Massachusetts Democracy to follow General Butler, say that the Butler movement will, start off in Massachusetts with a full barrel, a complete State commit tee and an organization which will reach every city, town and school district in : the State. Separate State and congressional nominations are promised. Chinese cheap labor seems to be too near this great, glorious and free country even in the Sandwich Islands. There are over twenty thonsand Chinese laborers in these islands, and as the Hawaiian sugar comes in free un der the reciprocity treaty, there is talk on the Pacific coast that American labor is once more threatened by "Chinese cheap labor," "and that the treaty must be abrogated." How would a plank in one or both the party platforms declaring that the Chinese must leave the Sandwich Islands look? - - i Mr. Edward C. Towne of Cambridge, Mass achusetts, an Independent who is not going to desert the Republican party this year, writes that after sixteen years of honest study, five and a half years in Great Britain, he is compelled to the conclusion that free trade is the cry of arrant humbugs. "In England," writes Mr. Towne, "free trade is a mere selfish necessity so far as it has been adopted, and the English appeal to us to adopt it is based upon nothing but selfish ness. That selfishness is often brutal and angry; it i" commonly contemptuous toward America and Americans; and only with a very few, indeed, is there such real friendli ness as to have any moral value to us in re turn for the immense boon that free trade would be to them." Paper made out .. of tobacco -stems is one of the latest claimants for public at tention. The tobacco pulp, it is asserted, produces a much stronger paper than wood at a much smaller cost. Samples of tobacco paper made under unfavorable circumstances show" comparatively few defects, and the strength is said to have been successfully tested by lifting a hundred-pound boy on a single broad sheet. A great point in the manufacture of the pulp is the fact that only the ordinary machinery found in every paper mill is required beaters, rotary . and grind ing machines while wood has to be skinned, Strapped, relieved of knots and rotten parts and grated. The average, quality .' of wood used loses from sixty to eighty per cent, in waste, and the most expensive chemical pro cess of reducing it to pulp brings the jynount of waste down only to 52 per cent. Tobacco stalk, however, reduced by a purely mechan ical process to a bone-dry pulp, shows a waste Of only five per cent. An 'Alpine cragsman accounts for the acci dents which have taken place in that region the present season by a neglect of the pre cautions which long experience has shown to be necessary. It is not till the end of July that iff is comparatively safe to venture among the high Alps. The fresh snow which falls every year forms a crust, the portion added to the permanent deposit being very slight. This crust usually begins to melt at the beginning of May, and the process varies during the summer according to the amount of heat experienced. During this time the mountains are in a slippery and treacherous condition, and due intimate knowledge of the state of the various peaks is essential to the safety of mountaineers, even in seasons much more favorable than the present for successful travel. , , General McClellan was asked if he thought that, on. the whole, the effect of army life had been demoralizing to those who partici pated in it. "By no 1 means," he replied warmly: The "point" hfTf "susceTible 6t ' proof or disproof, but I have no manner of doubt that the ratio of drunkards is no great er among veterans than among other men. There were thousands of the volunteers whose methods of life were hopelessly unsettled, and who wouldn't or couldn't return to any. sort of usefulness. But I believe there were many more thousands on whom the experience had a broadening, inspiriting, educating influ ence, and who, consequently, emerged from the war better qualified than they would otherwise have been to accomplish something or other1. I think this is especially true of those who had Tank above the mere private, though it might be only a sergeantcy. The feeling of leadership and responsibility ren dered them more disposed to go vigorously ahead in subsequent enterprises. No, no; it is a mistake to say that the war was in that way demoralizing on the whole." Legislation is pending in France on various points connected with artistic property which have been much debated of late. For instance, does the purchase of a work, of art carry with it, without any express stipulation, the right of reproduction? The courts have sometimes held that it does, but it is now proposed to legislate in a contrary sense. The very fre quent forgeries of pictures in France, espe cially of "Corots," give greater interest to a second proposal, which is to treat the sale of a forged picture as a misdemeanor, punish able by five years' imprisonment. The third matter dealt with is copyright in photographs, which the French courts have sometimes classed with other works of art, and some times not. It is now proposed to protect the photographers, but not so thoroughly as other artists. Thus there is to be no copy right in photographs for five years; none will be protected unless copies of them have pre viously been deposited in some public office, and finally, in any case, only such photo graphs as "show artistic worth" will be en titled to the benefits of the act. The report of the ' committee, in which these recom mendations are made, does not say how the question of artistio merit is to be decided. NOMINATED.

' A SCIENTIST ON SNAKES. Remedies Eor Rattlesnake Bites Tne Most Violent or Poisons. From Curiosities and Wonders of Serpent Life. "To conceive of an antidote to snake poi son in the true sense of the term," Sir Jo seph Fayrer explains "one must imagine a substance so subtle as to follow, overtake and neutralize the venom in the blood; one that shall have the power of counteracting and neutralizing the deadly influence it has ex erted on the vital forces. Such a substance has still to be found and our present experi ence of the action of drugs does not lead to hopeful anticipation that we shall find it." With regard to the many drugs used in va rious countries for the cure of snake-bite, it is curious to note that as a rule they are pro cured from the most deadly plants. As like cures like, so poison cures poison. Penny royal, says Charas, was held to the nose of a viper, who by turning and wriggling labored hard to avoid it, and in half an hour's time was killed by it. This was in July, at which season these creatures are computed to be in the greatest vigor of their poison. Another drug which is poison to a venom ous snake is tobacco, within the reach of most persons. This, among native remedies, has always been in favor, and we have heard of its efficacy ever since the weed was known to Europeans. Various species of tobacco and its allies are indigenous to most tropical countries, and probably were in use for both man and snake bites long before civilized na tions took comfort in smoking. Man carries more poison in his month than a snake, said an old Virginian writer, alluding to nicotine. He can poison a rattlesnake more quickly than it can him. Nicholson states that it also rapidly affects a cobra, and he recom mends it should you wish to destroy the snake uninjured. "Yon have," he says, "but to blow in his mouth a drop or two of the oil from a dirty pipe." Two young men chopping wood together in Virginia espied a rattlesnake. With a forked stick one of them held its head close to the ground, keeping its body constrained with his foot, while his , comrade took from his own mouth a quid "of tobacco which he forced into that of the snake. The reptile was then released, and had not crawled a couple of yards before it was convulsed, swelling and dying within a short time. Strychnine appears to have a similar effect to tobacco on snakes. Fayrer found cobras extremely susceptible to the influence of strychnine. An almost impalpable quantity caused a cobra to twist itself up in a rigid series of coils and die. Carbolic acid is an other drug which produces powerful effects. Poured on the floor of their cages it will kill venomous snakes in a very short time. A' large. Bnngarns died in ten minutes in this way. Dr. Weir Mitchell approves of carbolic acid. The Lancet recommends every back woodsman to supply himself with a little of it, which is easily portable and manageable in capillary tubes. In several of Mitchell's experiments with cro talus venom, carbolic acid applied to the wound was attended with success. But it must be done at once. The whole secret of cures when cures can be effected at all lies in promptness. It is celerity on the part of the Indians whieh en sures their success. In an instant, if his comrade be bitten, the savage is on his knees sucking the wound, grasping the limb firmly or strapping it tigntiy above and below the bite, knowing quite well the importance of 1.: ..: i.. it. i . i - . vucu&jui( uio vuvuinuuil. xie UOH II 1M poi BOn pills" and tobacco in his pouch. He ex plodes gunpowder on the wound and loses not an instant, nor does the victim lose heart. He submits with courage and confidence, and in tnese lie another element of success. Many cases are on record of persons being at deatn's door through fear alone when bit ten by a harmless snake, but recovering on being assured that there was no danger. And other cases are well known where bitten per sons have died of fright and the depressing influence surrounding the accident, when tney mignt possibly have recovered. And now for a few words about the most popular and perhaps most attainable of all remedies alcohol. No wonder that the backwoodsman resorts to this, which, with out any chopping-off of fingers or toes, or personal pyrotechnics or other local tortures, deadens his sensibilities, renders him uncon scious of all suffering and sends him into a happy obliviousness of danger. It is not a refined mode of treatment, nor one that pre sents many opportunities of exhibiting pro fessional skill; and it is no doubt somewhat derogatory to admit that to become dead drunk is an effective victory against snake venom. During a sojourn in Iowa some years ago, when wild and uncleared lands formed the "streets" of the town in which I was staying Lyons, on the Mississippi river. and as lovely a spot as artists and botanists con wish to revel m it was by no means an infrequent occurrence to hear of rattlesnake bites. "What was to be done to the man? is he alive?" were questions naturally asked. "He drank a quart of raw whiskey and got dead drunk." Generally a quart had the desired effect, that is of causing intoxication. Persons un used to intoxicants might be affected by a less quantity, but so violent is the combat be tween venom and whiskey that a large dose must be swallowed before any effects at all are produced. I heard of a man in Nevada, George Terhune, a teamster (I give his name, having reason to believe the truth of the Bto- ry), who was bitten in the hand by a rattle snake while stooping to reach some water out of a spring. ' The man was alone and far away from human habitations. It was an instinctive and momentary business first to kill the snake; then rushing to his wagon, he drew the bung from a keg of whiskey and took a large draught of the contents. After swallowing as much as he could he took some tobacco from his pocket, saturated that with whiskey and applied this poultice to his hand. He then proceeded with his team. drinking whiskey at intervals until he reached a dwelling, when he removed the poultice and found that the wound had turned green. Applying another of the same kind, he resumed hi journey and his potent doses, reaching his destination the next day as sober as a judge, having imbibed enough fire-water to intoxicate a dozen men. The quantity sometimes swallowed under such circumstances is utterly incredible. Professor Halford describes a case of snake bite near Melbourne, in which two bottles of brandy were drunk without any symp toms ot Intoxication, and another of a girl of fourteen, who, when bitten by an Aus tralian snake, drank three bottles without being intoxicated. She recovered. Alcohol has powerful attractions for ox ygen, writes Professor Halford, on the theory that the venom has produced for eign cells in the blood; so that if alcohol engage the oxygen absorbed by the poison, the cells perish and recovery" ensues. Dr. Shortt, of Madras, says: Bring the patient under the influence . of intoxication as speedily as possible; make liim drunk and keep him drunk until tho virus is over come. Dr. Weir Mitchell states that deli cate women and young children under the influence of snake poison could take quarts of brandy without injury and almost with out effect. One man a man of temperate habits took one quart and a half-pint of brandy, which only slightly intoxicated him for about fonr hours. Another man, bit ten in the throat, was cured at the end of twenty-four hours, during which time he had two quarts of whiskey in one night, ejnd renewed, as the pulse fell, besides red pepper and other stimulants. INSURING TITLES. New System of Indexing Transfers Features ofthe Business. From the New York Tribune No one who has ever had occasion to be concerned in the transfer of real estate will deny that the present methods of examining titles are cumbrous, expensive and unsatis factory. With the growth of the city, the development of the speculation in real estate, and the progress mode toward expanding the business by the establishment of a rea estate exchange, the need of an improvement is felt more and more every day. The books in the register's office containing records of convey ances and mortgages now number 3,000 and in the connty clerk's office the books needed in a search for titles number nearly as many. The number has doubled in ten years, and at the same rate of increase in 1904 it will reach about 15,000 in the register's office alone. Besides the trouble now involved in perfect ing a title, another defect in the present sys tem, which is admitted by lawyers and deal ers, is the fact that there is no guarantee that the opinion of the lawyer who passes upon the title of a piece of property is a careful or correct one, or that the records in any partic ular case are free from clerical errors affect ing a clear title. C. H. Kelsey, secretary of the Title Guar antee and Trust company, talked recently with a Tribune reporter on this subject. This company is the pioneer in New York of a new system for the indexing of transfers and mortgages, and for the insurance of a good titl to purchasers. This system was first put in operation in New Zealand about twenty-five years ago, the government under it undertaking the insurance of titles. There it was a comparatively easy matter to intro duce, on account of a small number of rec ords. But even in such old cities as Phila delphia and Washington the new system has been established for several years, and has proved a success. It has also been introduced by private companies in Boston and Balti more. In Philadelphia, where the first com pany began business, 5,000 policies of title insurance have been used, and after a little natural hesitation, on account of the novelty of the step, the most conservative trust com panies accepted the policies. Mr. Kelsey said: "The great difference be tween the old and the new system of examin ing titles is that we propose to keep indexes, not of the names of grantors and grantees, mortgagors and mortgagees, but ofthe pieces of property. Once let the transfers of a lot or a house be gathered under one head, and it is easy to add all the subsequent transfers, and it will not be necessary to go back to the last recorded conveyance, when the title of a piece of realty js to be examined. This method of indexing will remove the trouble of a week's search under the present system, and will save the large expense in fees to the county clerk's and register's office now neces sary to establish a correct chain of title. It will: take time, of course, to reduce all the records to the shape in which we propose to put tnem. Meantime, our company under takes to guarantee a perfect title on the basis of certain premiums adjusted to the damages to be paid in case the title should subsequent ly be found to be detective. unaer tnese guarantee policies a security is afforded far better than that resting upon the ability of a property owner to recover damages from the lawyer who searches the title or from the register or county clerk who may be respon sible for defective indexes and certificate of search. Defects in title are generally discov ered years after the deed is taken, when the lawyer who certified the title or the connty officer may be bankrupt or dead. Where the title is insured property is likely to be more readily negotiated and loans upon it natural ly will be made with more ease when the lender is not confronted with the trouble of making the present necessary inquiries. Under the guarantee policy property can be transferred with the same ease as a fire insur ance policy, and the policies can be assigned to mortgagees with only the trifling trouble of a visit to the company's office."
