His name was presented by Mayor Matthews of Boston. Elbridge Cushman of Lakeville was nominated for secretary of the commonwealth, and W. D. L. Trefry of Amherst was nominated for auditor. These were on last year's ticket. Men for attorney general and for state treasurer have not at this hour (1 p. m.) been selected. There has been strong pressure brought to bear on George M. Stearns of Chicago to induce him to accept the nomination for attorney general. He will be nominated if he will consent. If not, it is probable Charles A.

As the last resort and language of the people, Protest against the American dollar is the only They favor a sound currency. And that we do By present complaint is that there has been 100 million dollars in circulation of silver dollars, worth a billion dollars or as merchandise only cents apiece; and the coinage of these dollars, or, worse, to Inpger coinage of them, was due to the currency and ultimately to gold out of circulation. This was the silver dollar, YOUR A.M. - A.M. - The demand for the coinage of silver dollars was due to the gold standard, and the demand on the part of wound financiers was that the coinage should exceed or that something should be done to satisfy the parity of the silver dollar with the old coin. Put an administration debt was due to men of the far west, well as to the wool men, and to the other wholesale monopolists. The result is the Sherman act. Solved, of July 14, 1800, Under this act, the monetary required is precisely 3,000,000 ounces of silver a year, and the treasury notes therefor. These nominal redemption in coin, and the treasury required to coin enough silver to meet the circulation. The operation of this act is to institute a reserve nearly 800,000,000 ounces in silver a year, or by treasury notes based upon silver deposited and rudely coined on the depreciated coin. It inflates the existence annually, therefore, by some $60,000, more of debased silver, or its remaining. Paper, against $24,000,000 added under the operations of the previous law. For the purpose of showing Lodge and his Republican colleagues stood when this amendment of inflation and political debt-paying went through. Samuel Lodge voted for a Boy's share, the ten Republican representatives from Massachusetts voted for the ratification measure, while Andrew and George protested and voted against it. It was denounced in every manner, and even the "thick and thin" Republican party of this state was outspoken against it. Mr. Colling here quoted a story from the Boston Journal of 1858 on the subject, and read part of a speech by Congressman "Walker of Worcester, in the house on June 6, 18, in which he said he would vote for the bill "to help the boys out" because it was "a purely political question." It will be noticed that our Republican friends of their late convention took care not to refer to this act, which the printing officer and the Committee of Resolutions. tiona voted for with the rcil' tor “’?uro - ti¢ ".:n-} to pay a polltical debt under &“eﬁ sure.

In the next time, the people will do well to tally with their ballots with an affirmative cross from Russell down to "yes." In the comedy of "The Rivals" there is a large character.

When the challenge was given in the form of the governor of the state, the fighting candidate grew pale, and fell back limp and faint and fell into the strong arms of Sir Lucius Griggs, the former governor. "I pledge you that your position will please, cap mayagers, and attack with all your might the Brethren administration of our state, so far as democrats have a voice in it. Your only glory there is the fact that a Republican council has embarrassed the Democratic governor. If that is all the noise that this last relic of British rule in Massachusetts is in our system, let us send it to the old lumber room. The governor then represented a foreign king, the council represented the people. Now the governor comes directly from the people every year, and is directly loyal to the principles of democracy. The power of removal should rest solely with him. Massachusetts is proud of him. E. Russell and his public men never row over the constitution and the laws have been violated. Conferred upon the office he holds he has exercised with constant ability and a scrupulous regard for the public welfare. Whatever service custom has imposed on the chief magistrate, he has discharged with modesty, courtesy, and integrity. He has held the standard high, and has "reached the honor of the commonwealth." In the largest sense, he is the people's magistrate. He is the judge of the people. Him and the cause he nobly represents, we proclaim the judgment of the people. AETER A CAROUSAL. Unknown White Woman Found Dead in a Colored Man's Room, Boston, Sept. 20, —The body of an unknown white woman was found about 1 o'clock last night in the basement of No. 28 Pledmont street, Suspicions of foul play were at first entertained, and the occupant of the room where the body was found, named Benjamin F. Johnson, was arrested. Johnson, who is a colored man, was somewhat intoxicated at the time of his arrest and failed to throw much light on the matter. There were rumors that the woman had been choked to death. But the occupants of the house said they had heard no noise during the evening. A pall containing a small quantity of liquor was found on the table in the squalid room, telling the old tale of Intemperance. The first name of the woman was ascertained to be Delia, and she, it was said, had been seen about the place for the past two weeks. Medical Examiner Stedman viewed the remains, and as no marks of any violence were found on the body, he believed death to have been caused by heart failure, brought on by excessive drinking. An inquest will be held when an official report will be reported to the cause of the woman’s death. COLONEL COMPTON'S PUNISHMENT For those Part He Played in the Walla Walla Lynching Affair. WASHINGTON, Sept. 20.—The president has passed upon the record of the court martial in the case of Colonel Charles F. Compton, Fourth cavalry. While Compton was in command of the military post at Waalla Walla, Wash., some of his soldiers attacked the jail and lynched a gambler named Hunot, under arrest for killing a soldier. It was charged that Compton failed to take steps to prevent the lynching, although requested to do so, and he was court-martialed on a charge of negligence. The court found him guilty and sentenced him to confinement from rank and command for three years. The President has approved the proceedings of the court, but has initiated the sentence to suspension from rank and command on half pay for two years. Long Drop of Six Men. New York, Sept. 20.—Six men were badly bruised and injured yesterday, by falling sixty feet in a "cage," while being lowered into the excavation for a new sewer at the corner of Greene and Washington avenues, Brooklyn. A gang of laborers entered the "cage" or "CYCLE," to go to their work at the bottom of the excavation. The engineer started the machinery and the elevator began to descend slowly. It had not gone ten feet when something gave way, and the car shot to the bottom. It is believed that they will all recover. Not True to Life, Jackson, Miss., Sept. 20.—The life-size statue of Jefferson Davis, intended to be placed in the vestibule of the Confederate monument here, was opened yesterday and submitted to the comptroller. After careful inspection, the committee took an informal vote on the acceptance when all but one voted against accepting, on the ground that it is not a good likeness of Mr. Davis. The committee agreed to refer the matter to a new committee of twenty-five citizens, composed of persons to whom Mr. Davis was well known. Yale Statistics. New Haven, Sept. 20, —At last the true figures regarding the freshmen classes have been given out, and they show 24 freshmen in the academic department. Yale and 195 In Stefmold selentifie school.

Character of Those Who Handle the Hook and Nel. GLOUCESTEL, Mass., Sept. 9. — Through the courtesy of Captain J. Lines of the United States Fish Commission, sheets of the report of Mr. Wilcox, who was detailed by the Commission to collect data regarding the river, shore, and seashore fisheries of the Pacific coast, have been furnished to the Associated Press. My Wilcox began work at San Francisco in November, 1888; later he went to San Diego, and, beginning there, traveled north to Puget Sound, visiting nearly all the fishing stations along the coast and on the rivers, encountering many difficulties. In 1880 there were in operation on the Pacific coast 192 canneries, 8 being in United States territory and 24 on British soil, and of the former 88 were in Alaska. Of the total pack of salmon Alaska produced, the largest, and although in the number of canneries that the territory exceeded Oregon by only one establishment, the output was more than double that of the state named. The number of cases put up was: United States, 1,287,000, valued at $7,005,080; British Columbia, 414,000 cases, valued at $2,072,000. The pack during the fourteen years ending with 1881 was the western coast. Amounted to $12,400,068. Casen, with an estimated value of $75,000,000, the weight of the salmon consumed in the preparation of this enormous pack. was over 816,000,000 pounds, equivalent in point of weight to 1,000,000 head of cattle, and greatly exceeding the latter in economic importance and food value. Although on only seven years’ existence the salmon canninz industry of Alaska has bocome more important than that of any other region, the increase in growth the past few years has been pheuomena), especially 1n 1889, when the pack of 675,000 represented an incerease of 377,000 over the previous year. The shipment and distriby tion, aceordiug to the figures given, were as follows: g‘rom Dritish &Alumblb to London, 175,848 cases; to Liverpool, l!’»s,ca from the Columbia river to London, 204 cases: to Liverpool, 100,885, eastern states, 212,757, from San Franeisco to Australia, 80,141 casce; to Londoen, 85,084; to Livep pool, 268,(51; to Hamburg, 50; to the Ori eut, 2802, to Pacific Islands, 4101; to Span- Ish Amerlea, 1081; to eastern states,ls2,2Bl; total shlgumut. 1,204,807 cases. Note {8 made of the varfation in the dshing of tne three Pacific const states, both as relates to thelr character and the value. The aggregate number of men employed on vessels was 1570, on boats 8304, making a total of 13,850, not including 758 men employed on whaling vessels belonging to New Bedford, Mass., and making their headquarters at San Francisco. The value of apparatus and equipment employed in these vessels is found to be £9, and the products of all kinds in 1888 were valued at £6397. The commission calls attention to the improvement of fishing vessels and boats, and says in no other direction, vessels can certain fisheries be benefited by greater effort than by the introduction of improved types of fishing craft, small, properly rigged auxiliary steam vessels of the model type, which is made of fine mackerel, fishery, and there seems to be an opportunity for the establishment of the fisheries on the coast of California, south of Montevideo. There is a remarkable instance of the abundance of barrels of mackerel along the Columbia coast, and it would seem to be entirely feasible to make catches with commercial outlay for vessels and other commodities. The common mackerel is found to be scarce in the western Atlantic, and perhaps in the southern Atlantic, and perhaps in the southern Atlantic. The mackerel, or yellow fish, occurs in considerable numbers in the western part of the Atlantic. Among the islands, during May, June, and July, it is said that the first of May, the fish come at great expense, the first being usually found in the shalewood of small cast-off fish, that early swarm among the patches. On May 10, at which time the fish are tolerably plentiful, there are no fewer than 10 thousand of the fish can in the shallow waters. The Fishing Population on the Pacific coast is very hotgrogeneous in its character. At the bottom of a total of 59 men, only 40 were Americans, 52 were Chinamen, and Portuguese. 6 ‘unnn. 5 Swedes go and 18 of other nationalities. The United States fish commission steamer Albatross (formerly owned in 1847 and now a thorough exploration of Tanner bank, which lies distant westward of Sao Blopu, about 8 miles distant.
