TO The Editors Of the STATE Sentinel:
DEAR SrEs Surprising that you win feel anxious
to hear what tie Democracy are doing in Union
county, send you the following remarks II is gene
rally conceded that this county Is Wing, yet
times she gives Democratic majority, although very
small. In 1S43 she gave majority to Mr.. Whitcomb
of %, and this year l think she will do again.
Our population is divided into three sectons-Demo-
Gratis, Wings and the Liberty party; and when each
runs lis own ticket the contest between the Democrats
and Wings is warm and close This year, (unless
Dr. Chwood. Associate Judge. resigns.) the number
OF our county officers be elected will be only
Representatives and Commissioner. But the Dr.'s
growing practice, professionally, has made him
ous TO quit the Bench. So it may be calculated that
an Associate Judge will also have to be elected. For
Representa- tive. Mr.. Reid. Watt and others are talked
of For Commissioner, Mr.. Nelson, (the present
Commissioner. than whom better cannot be found but
he is old and wishes to retire. Mr. Preston and Inme
are named For Judge, should vacancy occur, James
Osborn would think, obtain the nomination BY the
Convention, which sits the first Saturday of July.
Mr.. Vance is talked Of as likely get the nomination
for Senator Fayeite has the right this term Of nomi-
mating for this ofice-and hope he may be elected
Neither the Wings nor Liberty party have showed
their hands, and no day is set by them, for nomina-
tion-alihough it is understood that they to have

Constructive MILEAGE.-It is right enough to
pay the law makers of tie nation their expenses in
going to and from the seat of Government; and
though the time and expenses of travelling are won
derfully reduced from what they were wien +
mileage established, the people afford not t.
be over particular to the amount Of the mileag,
bills But the constructive mileage charged and paid
every four years, when Congress adjoums the Sd
Of March and the Senate convenes again the 4th,
is matter for just complaint and repr0ach by tie
people 1t is unfair also to the Senators themselves
those who live near Washington getting but triflng
amount, while those from the remoter States LOUISE
ana, for instance, and Michigan, pocketng their
hundreds and even thousands. If the gift must be
made, it should be equally distributed among the
Senators and called by its right name-a present on
the accession of President.
The Washington correspondent of the Charleston
Mercury gives the following list of Senators who
received and Senators who refused the constructive
mileage on the accession Of Mr. Polk:

Madison and Indiannpolis Railroad.

In recent letter from Mr. Merrill, President Of
the Madison and indianapolis Railroad Company,

"There are five Counties through which the road
passes, aud seven others in its immediate vicinity.

number, about 30 in all, will do less business
on it. The II counties referred TO, by the Census Of
1910, had population of ID DOS. The wheat raised
that year 594, 80 bushels, the corn 1891, 997
bushels and the number of hogs 81 900. TIE pop
ulaion of the counties is now rs 900, and the pro-
duce double that of 1910. This district of country
is not inferior in fertility to any part of the Misss-
sppi Valley, but being originally very heavily tim
bered, and the common roads for many years often
nearly impossible, the surplus produce has borne no
proportion to its capacity for production There
be question that the most of the articles exported

Only 10 tons of hay transported the Road last

THE MoRMoNs.-A Mormon settlement under the
influence of Sidney Rigdon, has been commenced in
the vicinity of Greencase, in the county of Frank
n Pa. They have purchased large tract of land
from Mr.. McLanahan, for which they paid some
fifteen thousand dollars. Upon the tract is very
valuable water power, and it is said they propose
erecting extensive manufactores-among the rest a
cotton factory. A considerable number of the faith
full have commenced locating upon their premises

in excellent condition. The frigate United States,
destined for the coast of Africa, and afterwards the
Mediterranean to take the place the Cumberland was

MAGNETIC TELEGRAPHs- Western Telegraph
The telegraph having been extended from Utica to
Syracuse, (53 miles) is in operation the whole
distance from Albany N. Y, to Syracuse.
The wires of the Magnetic Telegraph Line, be-
tween Baltimore and Philadelphia, have been extern
ded across the Susquehannah river on posts.
The Philadelphia Ledger says that the wire of the
Telegraph in Lancaster city, was struck 10y Lightning
several times during the thunder of last week.
No damage was done, nor is it believed that in case
of recurrence of the accident, any injury could be
sustained, the wire being too small to contain suf-
cient quantity of fluid to produce any serious conse
quences The sound produced by the stroke, in the in
terror of the Telegraph Office similar to that of
the report of pistol, which accompanied by the
emission of few sparks.

The winds that fan the flowers,
And with their welcome breathing Ill the sail,
Tel Of serener hours
or hours that glide unfel away
Beneath the sky of May.
The spirit OF the gentle south wiad calls
From his blue throne Of air,
And where his whispering voice in music falls,
Beauty is budding there,
The bright ones Of The valley break
Their slumbers, and awake.
The waving yerdure rolls along the plain,
And the wide forest waves,
To welcome back its playful mutes again,
A canopy OF leaves;
And from lis darkening shadows floats
gush Of trembling notes.
Fairer and brighter spreads the reign Of May;
The uesses of the woods
With the light daIIying Of the west wind play;
And the TUT -hrimming foods,
As gladly to their goal they run,
Hail the returning sun.

The poets sing OF the merry month Of May
But surely Nature looked So GUM
Where the flowers that make all Nature CAV?
Where are the beesi Alas. they're all a hum.
Where the blossoms that should gem the bowers.
This year they make very sorry show;
For, what with bosterous winds and peiing showers
The buds are blown away before they blow.

With young Aurora, full Of miuh and giee;
IL in the present year they'd gone a-Aayns
They must have done with ParGplGie
They bid ms forth in May o hear the note
or nightingale resembling through plains
This year we should have needed great coat
As protection iganst the rafting rain.
The murm' ring breeze is well enough, no doubt
That gently daIIies with fair Phebe's eurls;
But not pleasant when IL blows about
Your hat rapid and successive whIris.
Adsu dull month dark, dismal wet aud drear.
Who call thee merry know what they say;
Thou'n be the greatest cheat in all this year.
Farewell, most melancholy month Of May.

The joyous month Of May has come,
And perfumes load the air;
The bee is out with drowsy hum,
The angler throws his snare;
The silver waters from the lin
With music dance along,
And bark. the morning woodlands thrill
With many a warblers song!
The violet blows beside he stream,
The blood In the wood,
With daisies all the meadows CLEAN,
Like soitudel
The lilac blooms by laTches thin,
The grass springs green and gay,
And song and beauty usher in
The laughing month OF May!

The fOIIOWlng StatSllcS OF executions anu MURDERS
in Belgium, show the effect of substituting lifelong
imprisonment for death:
Executions. Murders.
In 10 years ending 1914. 500. 399 81 per annum.
In Is years ending 1929. IL. l4i or per annum.
In years ending 1891. none. 20 or per annum.
The ancient Irish always regarded executions with
horror for capital punshments unknown to their
laws An historical fact illustrates their independence
and humanity. When Hugh O'Neil (who had learned
the custom from England) ordered Hugh GavelOck's
head to be cut off, he could find no executioner among
his own subjects. Yet this was 50 late as the reign
of Elizabeth.

Mr. IHGERsoLL AT HoME.-An immense meeting
of the Democratic citizens of the city and county of
Philadelphia, took place on Friday, May 1st The
Keystone, in referring TO the meeting. says it
"the largest meeting ever contained within the walls
of any building in Philadelphia" The following re-
solution, offered by Gen. Roumort was unanimously
adopted:
Resolved That we have observed with feelings of
profound qualification the of the Hon. Charles
Jared Ingerso, member of Congress from the Fourth
Congressional District upon the subject of the frauds
pecuations and cor'uptions charged against Daniel
Webster and that the calm, prudent, yet courageous
manner in which lie has persisted in his charges
against abandoned, though powerful man, and the
conclusive and overwhelming proofs that he has offer
cd to present in support of these charges, although
received with abuse and vituperation by those who
have pensioned ''the God like Daniel, and who pay
him for his speeches and his votes are entitled to the
approval of every honest American.
Justice requires that these charges should be nvest-
gated fairly promptly and fearlessly and that those
who honestly prefer approve them, whether in ee
waited or humble stations, should be sustained by a
generous community, determined to see justice done
without fear, favor or affection.
In relation TO the matters at issue between Messrs
Ingersoll and Webster, the N Y News has the fol-
lowing seasonable remarks. They are particularly
applicable to the Wing press in this quarter, which
out qualification. Perhaps We have no right to ex-
pect anything better, however and if Webster should
prove to be guilty of all that Ingersoll has charged
the Wing politicians would only like him better. The
single fact that Mr.. Webster is pensiOner, ought
damn him, and would with any party but the Wings.
1.-The Wing press have assumed to PREJUDICE this
whole case in most summary way, and to heap
abuse on MIR. IngersolPs head and laudation on Mr..
Websers after fashion rather premature to say the
least of it. We have other remark to make at
present than this that far regards all the
serious and vital part of the issue raised between
these gentlemen, the fault of the aggression lies
nearer to Mr.. Webster's door than to Mr. Ingersors
He first drew the knife in the encounter, and rushed
into the close quarters of insulting and objectionable
personalities. How he will fare the encounter re-
mains yet to be We most sincerely hope that
he will come out of the investigation his friends
desire and expect to see him. Meantime they would
do well, if they will not suspend their judgment till
they get the evidence before them, least to suspend
senseless clamor of abuse against Mr.. Ingersoll /;
who received the EXTREMIST provocaton from Mr..
Webster, calculated TO lead him to bring forward al
most in selfdefence, the charges under invest-
CATION. Wait for the report of the committee. and
then let full and fair justice be melted out all round

CUMBERLAND Road. The Wing papers have
preached and advocating the proposition that the
Legislature shall charter companies to 60 on and
complete the Cumberland Road. Perhaps, this is
the best thing that can be done.
