Purs'uant $6 the plan of organiza tion of the Democratic party, under the call of the Executive Committee its representatives gathered in the court house yesterday to nominate a ticket for the county offices; and members of the next Legislature. We give the result of tne convention in our local columns, .and it only re mains for us to say that the county convention was a fairly representa- tive body, - and we have no doubt in selecting candidates it had the' good of the party at heart. It now remains for the Democrats of the county to elect the ticket they nominated yesterday. Of course there were some, disappointments. Unanotte is leit without any repre sentation in the legislature, and thi-i may produce some soreness, but t the county precincts had the ' votes, which they had the right to cast as they pleased, and now that it has been done, let us . all pull together and elect the nominees.. ' . ; SWEPT BY THERFLAMES. A Terrible Conflacration Destroys AiiocKS oi property. Cleveland, O., Sept. 8, 1884. A terrible conflagration broke out here last night.

Immediately after Cleveland rose a sreat cheer went up from the multitude, the 25,000 per sons present shouting . themselves hoarse. The Governor's remarks were listened to "with ereat attention, and he was often interrupted by cneer s. He spoke as follows: . - "GOV. CLEVELAND'S SPEECH. It affords me great pleasure to meet vou here tddav and to have an opportunity of inspecting the annual exhibition wnicn illustrates me uoi dition of the agriculture of our State. I reeard these annual fairs as some- thins connected with the State gov ernment. because, to some extent at least, they are fostered and aided by the. public funds, ana l am sure max no good citizen is inclined to complain of an appropriation or a small part or the people's money for the encourage ment ot this important interest .xne . mi fact that this is done furnishes a dis tinct recognition by the State of the valuable relation ; which its farmers and its farms bear to the prosperity and welfare of the commonwealth We boast of our manufactures,: ex ceeding as they do, largely those of any other State, but our supremacy is clearly shown when we recall the tact that : in addition to our leaamg manufactories the value of our tarms and their products is second only among the States. ; ; There is a fixedness and a reliabilU tv in agricultural pursuits which are .not alwavs found in other branches of industry and human eltort. The soil remains in its place ready to be tilled, and the farmer with ruddy health and brawny arm. depends alone upon the work of his hands and aid of a kind Providence for the re ward of his labor. Thus our farmers are the most independent of our citK iens. They produce or nave witnm their reach all they need 'for their necessities and comfort. Their crops may be more abundant at one har vest than at another, .and their products may command higher prices at anotner. xne conai tions may expand or: contract their ability to indulge in luxuries or expenditures not absolutely needful, bat they should never be in want or the necessaries and comforts ot lite. This is the sure result of patient and well-regulated farming. When a farmer fails and becomes bankrupt in his business we may, I think, con fidently look for shif tlessness, : or a too ambitious desire to own ' more land or stock than he can pay for. or intermedling with matters that bear no relation to his avocation, or such mismanagement and ignorance as demonstrate that he has mistaken his vocation. Fortunes may be quickly amassed in speculation, arid lost in a day, leaving a bad example and per haps demoralization and crime. The trademan or manufacturer, by vicis situdes of trade or through the allure ments to a short road to wealth may. in a day. be overcome and bring dis aster and ruin upon hundreds of his neighbors. Uut in the industrious,, intelligent and contented farmer, the State finds a safe and profitable citi zen, always contributing to its wealth and prosperity. The real value of the farmer to the State and Nation is not, however, fully appreciated until we consider that be feeds millions of our people who are engaged in other pursuits, that : the product of his labor fills the avenue of' our corns merce and supplies an important fac tor in our financial relations with other nations. - . , - I have not come to attempt to please you with cheap and fulsome praise, nor to magnify your - worth and your importance, but I have come as the Chief Executive of the State to acknowledge, on . its behalf. tuat our farmers yield full return for the benefits they receive from the State government. . I have come i to remind you of the importance ot the interests which you have in charee. and to suggest that, notwithstanding tne iarmers independence, - he can not be entirely unmindful of" the value of and importance to the inter est he holds in a just and economical government". It is his right and his duty to demand that ail unjust and inequitable burdens upon agriculture and its products, however caused. should be removed, andthat while we further other interests of the State this important one should' not be neglected., JThus, while by his labor as a farmer, he relizes for his labor, in the full performance; of his duty as a citizen, he will create and secure to himself his share ; of the result of his toil, and save and sruard ior an tne people the most important element in tne prosperity or the State. ; Mill Stopped by a Strike Wilmington.
