In view of the recent Legislative apportionment,
by which many new Senatorial Districts are created
without any Republican Committees authorized to
vail nominating conventions therein, the State Cen
tral Committee recommend as follows
In cane where the Senatorial District comprises
nioro than one county, thv Chairman ef the County
Committee in the District shall constitute the Sena
torial District Committee.
Where the Senatorial District comprises but one
county entire, the regular County Committee will
net.
In cases where the Senatorial District includes
only a portion of a county, the chairman of the town
committee embraced in the District shall constitute
the Senatorial District Committee.
The sole duty of the committees appointed as above
is to call the Senatorial District Conventions in their
respective districts.
To facilitate political organization for the coming
campaign, and also to prepare for the Presidential
contest next year, all County Conventions are re
spectfully urged to appoint their County Committees
by electing one active Republican from each town in
the county. Each member of the County Com
mittee should be chairman of the committee for
the town in which he resides. The town couirittee
should be composod of at least one from each school
district, If this method is[g nnrally adopted the
labors of the coining can vans will be greatly simpli
fied, and rendered effective in the biffheat degree.
Every Republican is urgently requested to assist in
reorganizing the party and selecting delegates to the
State Conventiou by attending the primary meetings.
By order of the Republican State Central Com
mittee.
FRED. DRISCOLL,Chairman.
J. T. WILLIAMS, Secretary.

VOLUME FOVRTEKN,
With tbis issue, E JOURNAL steps
into its Fourteenth Year. Since the
early part of 1858, it has been pub
lished regularly, never having missed
single week in thirteen yearn. And
during all tbis time, tbero Ins toe. but
one change of proprietors. This, we
believe, can be said for no other paper
published in Minnesota. Many who
were subscribers thirteen years ago, are
atill subscribers but, in the meantime,
the eircnlation of the paper has quad*
rupled, and is still steadily increasing.
The town has grown from a very small
village to be one of the leading cities
of the State, with a future full of prom
ise.
While closing tbe old volume and
opening the new, we would express our
thanks for the continued support which
JOURNAL has received from the peo
le St. Cloud and Northern Minoeso-
nd, indeed, many other portions of
iLi State. The increasing subscription
attests an appreciation of tbe paper
.. ch is highly gratifying. We will
spare DO effort to merit this favor, and
will endeavor to havo each year's num-
bers show a marked improvement over
those of the year before.

THE AGHICUI/rTJRAL, Alfl DRIV
ING PARK ASSOCIATION.
The success of tbe movement for tbe
organization of this Association h«s
been beyond all expectation. A lull
report of the proceedings, so far as they
have progressed, is given in our local
columns. Up to last evening, about
nine thousand dollars in stock had been
subscribed—an amount very nearly
double what the most sanguine had
considered it possible to obtain. Our
citizens have taken hold of the project
with an enthusiasm which is both cred
itable and gratifying. All seem to
realize the benefit which would result
from such an organization to the oity
and the county at large. Indeed, it is
reasonable to nuppose that other counties
than Stearns will beeome interested in
the contemplated fairs, and will bring
here there products for display and their
choice stock to compete for premiums.
An adjourned meeting ol the stock-
holders will be held this evening to elect
officers, and to make the first payment
often per eent. on the stook subscribed.
This will put the Association at oneo in
working shape. The capital at its com
will enable it to purchase track
of eighty acres within a half mile or
mile of the city limits, fence the
land, prepare a mile-track, erect all nec
essary buildings, and put tho grounds
in the best condition for the use of
the Association and for the holding of
lairs. We hope to be able to announce
next week that steps have been taken
for the organization of a County
Agricultural Society. It is now the
duty of farmers in different locali
ties to take hold. The business men
of St, Cloud are ready to carry the
heavy end of the burden, and offer
grounds, all ready for a fair, free of
cost to the County Society. Will the
farmers consult their own interests and
sot promptly
Much credit is due tbe committer—
Messrs. Coates, Carter and Haywr.rd—
jr the energy they have displayed in
obtaining subscriptions of stick.
CHE Democrats are on tho look-out
for a candidate for Governor this fall.
Among the names mentioned are Ara
Barton, Member of the liouse from
North field, who made the funny speeoh
last winter against the Land Division
Bill Hon. E. M. Wilson, late Member
of Congress from this District and
Hon. 11. T. Welles, of Minneapolis
With a popular candidate on tho Re
publican ticket, tbo Democracy have
not the ghost of a chance of success in
the State but with Governor Austin
as the nominee, the result would be
exceedingly doubtful.

THtfi JTR5W YORK RIOT.
Fuller reports of tho riot io New
York city on Wednesday last—con
cerning which dispatobes were re "eived
just in time for a few linos in our last
issuer-give the number of killed at
thirty-two wounded, ninety-two. Of
these one hundred and thirty, many
went to tho scene with murder in their
hearts, and richly merited their fata
but oot a few were innocent lookers on,
and some were yi .(servers of tbe peaoe.
This riot was a deliberate premedi-
tated affair, and as wicked and crimi
nal as it was premeditated. It was a
natural outgrowth of the corruption
which extends from center to circum-
ference of the municipal government of
that most Democratic of all Democrat
ic cities. Mayor Hal! encouraged tbo
mob by denying to the Orangemen a
right which justly belongs to Ameri
can? everywhere in this country—the
right of peaceable procession. Hi
guilt glares out in tbe sight of tbe
world, aud is without palliation. Gov.
Hoffman is both blamed and praised
It is charged that he knew of all the
facts on Monday, but took no meas
ures to preserve the peace until mid
night of Tuesday. This may or may
not be true but Gov. Hoffman certain-
ly actei promptly and nobly when he
did aot. That he is universally de
nounced by Tammany leaders and the
roughs generally of New York that he
has been burned in effiry, and that his
portraits have been torn down by these
same Ward "repeaters" and cut-throats,
are very strong evidences that be was
in tbo right. Honor to whom honor
is duo!
HAIL. STORMS.
Great damage has been done
throughout this State during the past
two weeks by storms of wind and hail.
In tbe Minnesota Valley, on the 7th,
scores of farmers had their entire crops
destroyed. Houses wero unroofed, and
trees were blown down snd splintered by
thousands. The loss is very heavy, and
many farmers, who were already in
debt, feel mueh depressed. Relief
meetings are being held at Mankato
Mild elsewhere.
On the 16th a storm swept through
Steele county, with results scarcely less
disastrous. 'Crops were beaten down
and out to pieces. At Owstonns one
third of the iron roof of Lowth & Har-
ris' foundry was carried away tbe up
per portion of the National Hotel was
moved off and many other build-
ings were injured.
On the same day a storm, though
not so severe, visited Scott county.
A LL Saturday night, all day Sunday,
and all night again that night, an army
of workmen were busy, at forty cents
an hour, laying the track o! the Minne-
apolis and White Bfar Road, from tbe
St. Paul and Pacific Railroad bridge to
the depot on Second street in Minne
apolis, At 9 o'clock on Monday
morning tho new track was securely
laid in front ot Suspension Bridgo, and
about a block beyond. Connect ion is
thus made with White Bear Junction
and Stillwater, and with Dulutb. The
News says the reason for hurrying
the work was the fear of an injunction,
as many citizens were dissatisfied with
having the road cross Bridge Square
in front of the Suspension Bridge.
On Monday afternoon anin'un.otion
was served prohibiting the running
of cars between Bridge Square and the
Suspension Bridge, but it has been dis
regarded. Meanwhile the road is being
pushed forward and the track will soon
be laid through Second street to the
Company's premises in the Fourth
Ward.
ST. PAUL is quite lively with elope
ments. On Saturday—the ssmo day
on which Mrs. Berkman vanished with
Simmons, tho milk peddler,—Mr. Pots-
geisser found that his wife had* "gone
where the woodbine twineth" with
some man whose name tbe papers do
oot give. Like prudent woman, sho
took with her about $400 in ready cash
which her husband had succeeded in
saving during past years. Another
instance of the "inhuman treatment"
of wives by their husbands.
MR. LOUIS E FISHER, who for sev-
enteen years has been editor of the St
Paul Pioneer, completed bis fiftieth

GOVERNOR AUSTIN.
The Alexandria Post has a well
considered article on tho Governorship,
from which wo extract the following
paragrupiis:
"We b.tHev.' ypo express tbe feeling
of'a vast majority of the Republican
party iu tbis country when we say that
we are opposed to (ho re-nomination of
Horace Austin at the coming State con
vention. For this op osition w« havo
various reasons, of whicn we ma spec
»ty ono or two.
"We are satisfied that in nominating
Austin the Republican party of the
Stato would be taking a greater risk
than we ought to do at this time. No
ono ean iorget tho scant majority by
which he reached his position in 1869
Then- wero strong reasons for oppos
ing him then. These reasons are now
intensified, and many new once add
ed.
"Gov. Austin is not the mm we want
to do full justice to our portion of the
State. His views as to our needs and
wants, though they be honest, are mis
taken. He is not our friend, and will
not have at heart the best interests of
the large frontier portion of the State,
which more than any other needs tbe
executive. Hi* acts have already prov
ed tho truth of tbis assertion

VOR THE WHOLE AT ATE.
The strong point made by the Wi-
nona RepMican agaiasttbe division(f
the internal improvement lands last
winter for railroad purposes was that
the distribution would bo for tbe ex
clusive benefit of a few points io tbe
State to the exclusion ot others, and
not being of any benefit to tha whole
State Gov. Austin was justified in ve
toing the bill.

posed to represent, been consistent in
the principle envoi»ed We think not.
No paper nor people of the State have
been more craving and clamorous for
appropriations for Normal School propos
es than the Republican and the citi
zens of Winona. One half tbe money

have ereoied a housj Urge tnd commo
dious enough, but to satisfy a loo
pride which other oitisens of the State
did not share with them, eve'y wint.r
(hoy builied and bored the Legislature
for large appropriations to adorn and
embellish tbe building far out of pro
portion to tbe wealth and resources of
the State. About $77,000, over and
above the cost of the school building at
this place, have been extorted from tbe
treertity, Winona alone being the ben
eficiary. Is tbis what the Republican

Last winter an approprittion of more

School received the Governor's signa

received $8,000 per annum, while

On tbe 8th alt., at Rome, the Pope
held a consistory, at which he recog
nised the Bishops of Siebo, in Hungary,
of Oporto, in Portugal, and ot St. Jago
in Cape DeVerdes, and afterwards pub-
lished the nomination made since last
month, in a briot'of the patriarch of
Lisbon and of the Bi hops of Braguagc
and Myranda, Portugal and of the
Bishops of Mezo and Eluse in Par
ibus. He then addressed the Sa-
cred College in Latin elocution,
which announced his decision in those
words
"We are, very dear brothers, in the
hands of Divine Providence. We
have nothing to expect from human
aid, for man has abandoned

—"Love springing from that part of the
mind which is nearest to Grod, in sym
pathy with the spiritual and eternal, ia
an electrical connection with heaven
itself, and emits its flashes and its iu
apiratiooa. None can truly and wholly
love, except those whose life is the un
folding of their whole nature on the
plane of Christianity. A full and per
feet love, then, is one io which two na
tures match caoh ether in every faculty,
so that moral life reciprocal so that
thought-life is interchangeable so that
taste-life is harmonious so that affect*
ional life is competitive and stimulat-
ing and so that all the undor-facuhie.
are sobered and trained, and brough
into unison, by the religious nature.

duced. It is unsurpassed aecombining per
fection of operation,
Btauty and Simp icily of Construction, and

"This invention relates to a new shuttle
sewing machine and consists in so com
bining with caoh other an oscillating shut
tle driver, a double cam feed motion, and a
slotted plate for moving the needle up and
down, that in one machine the main ad
vatanges of minv different kinds of sew
ing machines are combined, whereby a
complete and satisfactory operation as well
as great simplicity of eonstruction can be
btained."
They are sold at'about
