DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION. . The Democratic elector* of tho State of %en York are Mquectcd! to unite in sending three delegates a i d three alternates from each Assem­bly district to a State Convention to be held at Syracuse on Tuesday, Sept. 94, JHOS, nt 12 o'clock noon, for the purpose of placing in nomination candidates to be voted foraf, the ensuing general election; and to transact stich other business as may properly come before the Convention..

.J. w. H INK LEY, Chairman. Joirs 15. J1D8ON. Secretary:

DON'T! Senator COOOESHALL ofUtica saving

been " tu rned down." that is. refused renomination—by order of Mr. P I . A T T ,

i t is said—lie has bolted and will run ns an independent Republican- candidate. We can regard this determination wfth the utmost complacency, for. " w h e n rogues fall out ," etc. Indeed, we could •wish there were two Republican candi­dates in every legislative district in the State.

But. when it comes to Democrats accept­ing Mr. COGQESflALL as their candidate —it is reported from Utica that the Dem­ocrats are thinking seriously of "indors­ing " the recalcitrant Republican—that's another matter.

amies of H O K A T I O SKYM»>{:R and F R A N C I S K E H N A N . is there no Democrat in Oneida Co. worthy to carry the Dem­ocratic banner ? .Brethren, what are you thinking a b o u t ? ' Why. if you haven't any men. hunt up an old pair of HOKATIO

Muuns pantaloons, and rally around them—stand by something Democratic. any way.

22 In 1*93, when, by reason of the ex­traordinary appropriations for the World's Fair, the Buffalo strike and the purchase of the Fire Island cholera station, a Dem­ocratic Legislature increased Greene Co.'s State tax by less than $-1000. The Exam, iner shouted itself red in the face in denunciation of the wasteful and extrava­gant Democratic party, and demanded that it be turned out of power. Now. when a Republican Legislature, without the justifying circumstances attending the increase of 1893. raises the tax .fl.-t.T?.-154 to the State, as a whole and $13,424 to Greene Co.. The Exayxiner says that it is a - s leazy" matter, of no consequence whatever. The Democrats, it contended, deserved a thrashing for a $4000 increr.se. but the Republicans, who have' perpe­trated a $13,000 increase, merit a continu­ance of the voting public's confidence and another " g .oral victory " I It's The

Examiner-.'Itself that is "s leazy ." we are inclined to think.

^ • R e f e r r i n g to the meeting at Xew York on the 15th inst. of the Democratic State Committee, to select the time and place for the State Convention, The Times of that city says :

"Incidental to the meeting, which w a s the first held since the. defeat of last No. vembcr. there was quite a gathering of Democratic leaders, especially for so warm a day in mid-Summer. The thing that was 'most noteworthy about the gathering was the well-settled belief that the tide had turned in the direction of Democracy, and that the State ticket to be nominated

month would be elected. This feeling amounted to buoyant hope. There was none of that feeling of doubt and distrust that was so marked at last year's Summer meeting of the State Com­mittee." ' .

r g r V a l k y r i e 111., the English yacht challenging for the Queen's cup?\vhich the America won in English waters in 18.">l and which Britons have again and

in tried to recapture, arrived at New-York on Sunday. Undoubtedly she is the best yacht ever sent over, and her owner. Lord DUNH.VVKN, is quite conn-dent of capturing the cup this time; but there's many a.slip ' twixt the cup and the s i n p . •' • » - • ' •

.ZSTThc present Republican Legislature increased Greene Co.'s State tax $13,-42:5.93. The Examiner thinks that this is a "sleazy " matter. As a taxpayer, as one who will have to pay your share of

Thirteen-Thousand-Dollar increase, wha t do you think of it? Can you afford to vote to elect another Republican Legis­lature?

A Treat For the Children. That pleasing spectacle, " Zozo, the Magic

Queen," will be the attraction at the Neli&a Theater on Saturday, Aug. 31. Few plays have had so long and uninterrupted a rim as "Zozo,'1 this being its tenth consecutive soa-son. Possibly one of the secrets of the suc-

of "Zozo" is that there is nothing stereotyped about the performance, and that it is the constant endeavor of the* managers to always offer something new. Entirely new scenery, costumes, etc., will be used in the forthcoming production. New fact's, new features, new songs, new dances, new mtisicr-in fact, the play has been given so thorough an overhauling that nothing is left except the outline and beautiful pattern for scenic effect, which cannot be improved upon. The soenes in fairyland will be com­plete as for ns stage illusion can go, and the children will bavo an opportunity of paying a visit to that mysterious country. Aside from a thoroughly-organized and complete dramatic company, a corps of clowns, acro­bats, dancers, machinists, specialty artists and pretty faces will form part of the spec­tacle.

Trying to Prove an Alibi. Eugene B; Seaburgh of Alcove,-Albany

Co., who was jailed last week by Special Deputy Sheriff Hoy for certain irregularities in horse-dealiug, appeared on Monday before Justice Bennett for a second hearing. Sheriff Brandow had on hand tho several subpoenaed men by whom the prisoner seemed confident of proviug an alibi on tho night of July 4, 1S04, the date on which it is claimed the Hnuer 'horse was stolen. John Miller of Now Balti-more, a teamster and..farmer, stated that his memory had been impaired by an attack of grip, but ho was quite positive that Sea­burgh did not., ride to tho depot'with' him on the morning in question. . " I don't want to harm you, Eugene,'but I'm sure T can't do you any good," was his wet-blanket con­clusion. Ho was allowed to return home. C. E. Gage of tho Windsor Hotel, Coxsackie, said to Seaburgh: " I don't remember about taking a drink with you and tho boatman you speak of on tho morning you speak of!. It might have been the 5th of July, or tho 10th of January. I do remember aii occasion on' .which you inquired about renting 'my barn. You talked of starting a l i v e r y -said there was lots of money in the business, and that you had a man who was anxious to form a partnership with you," etc.

Hero Justice Bennett asked the prisoner to give his partner's name. Seaburgh looked, sheepish, and said he "guessed there was nothing of it—must have been dreaming." Mr. Gage Was excused. Seaburgh had in­sisted on subpoenaing John Van Tassoll, tho Hudson horse-dealer^ claiming that he wus well acquainted with him and. had slept in his stable on the night of tho 4th. When the sheriff entered the room with Mr.'Van Tassell,.tho latter asked: "Did you over so1© mo before?" "No," was the prompt reply. " AVell, young, man," continued tho horse­man, " I don't know you; 'I never, saw you in "my life, and it's a mystery to me what you're driving at."

Tho prisoner then requested tho sheriff to look up other men, 'and did not seem cast down by his experience with the first batch. Ho was remanded uutil Monday next. Coun­selor Egbert Palmer att'y for Tho People. ';

Mr. Lynes was nearly 43 years old, and was. the 'eldest of the children of the late George Lynes. In his youth he was a victim of unrequited affection, and in his despera­tion he sought to destroy himself. He shot a heavy bullet into his vitals and inflicted apparently a mortal wound. Surgical. skill, however, saved his life; but he never after that was entirely well, mentally or.physic­ally. He engaged iu various, business enter­prises—at one time, some years ago, carried on a restaurant here—but in none of them was he very successful. Of late years he has owned and worked an orange plantation in lower Florida, failing health finally obliging; him to eomo North.

He leaves a widow, mother and two broth­ers. . ' . ' - . J-'.'" •'.•."
