HOW TO GO WEST.

This is an inquiry which every one should
have truthfally answered before he starts on
his journey. and little care taken in exami-
nation Of routes win in many cases save much
trouble, time and money.
The "BuFlington Route" has achieved a
splendid reputation in the last two years as
the leading Passenger Route 10 the west.
Starting at Burlington If runs direct through
Southern Iowa 10 Nebraska and Kansas, with
close connections TO California and the Terri
tories; and passengers starting from Lancas-
ter, on their way westward cannot do better
than to take the C. B. s. Q. and Burlington
Route.
This line has Published a pamphlet called
Show TO go West" which contains much val
liable Information; large correct map of the
Great West, which can be obtained free of
charge by addressing the General Passenger
Agent B. & NJ. r. r., Burlington, Iowa.

Morton Smoked out.

After lodging. quibbling, squirming.
and prevaricating since the 18th of March
in regard TO the back pay. the Senator from
Indiana has at last been forced To return
the money to the Treasury. lie is not en-
titled Ia the least credit for this involuntary
restitution. For more than five months ii
stood to his credit with the Secretary OF
the Senate, and was liable 10 be- drawn AT
any moment. During all this time he was
watching the currents of public opinion.
expecting. and doubtless hoping. that the
storm would blow over. until finally when
he discovered il swelling into larger pro-
portions and partisan necessities demanded
the sacrifice he concluded TO surrender
what never honestly belonged to him.
Mr.. John sherman played the same
game until he too had TO disgorge most re-
luctantly after having under his own hand
declared what he knew To be untrue. in
saying that the money was in the Treasury
when II was deposited TO his credit with
the Secretary of the Senate. Nothing but
the pending election in Ohio coerced him
to give up the spois. which he cherished
as fondly as II he had not acquired for
tune of several millions since entering
Congress.
Mr.. Morton. in open Senate. advocated a
" substantial increase" of Congressional
pay. and spurned the original House bill.
which proposed $4,000, as entirely unwor-
thy his support. because II did not go far
enough. lie indicated Enthusiastically then
his real opinion, before public comment had
been excited. and he has adhered to IL. IA
his conduct shows, ever since, until policy
compelled this recent change of base.
With all his adroitncss Mr.. Morton can
not escape the responsibility which attaches
to himself and the Republican party. No
matter what individual Democrats may
have done or said, the Republicans held
every avenue of legislation and the Presi-
dent besides. They had the power to crush
this corruption at any and every stage I'm
the House of Representatives, where II
originated. in the Senate. or by the Presi-
dent. The bill was reported by the Judi
ciary Committee. and Butler fifty chosen to
conduct it through Congress. Ills princi-
pies qualified him for that function exactly.
and he represented mt the same time the
wishes of a large majority of his political
associates Ia both branches of the Forty
second Congress. II was In every sense q
measure of Republican policy. and could
not possibly have been entertained or
adopted without the full consent of that
party and the approval of the President.

On the banks of the Kentucky River rise
huge rocky bluffs, several hundred feet in
height. 4 fox that lived near this river
was constantly hunted. and as regularly
lost over the bluif. Now, nothing short Of
wings would have enabled the animal 10
escape with life down perpendicular cliil.
At last a hunter. being determined to d,-
cover the means by which the animal
bafllcd them. concealed himself near The
bluff
Accordingly. in good time the fox came
To the top of the cliff a. usual. and looked
over. He then let himself down the face
Of the cliff by "A movement between leap
and slide. and landed on a shelf not quite

cliff. The fox then disappeared in hole
above the shelf On examination. the
shelf turned ont 10 be the mouth of a wide
assure in the rock. into which the fox al
ways escaped. But how was he to get out
again. lie might slide down ten feet, but
he could never leap ten feet from such
small shelf upon the perpendicular rock.
The impossibilty struck the hunters mind,
so he instituted a search. and at length DIS
covered an easier entrance into the cave
from the level ground.
The fox was too wise To use that en-
trance when The hounds were behind him;

by dropping down the rock, and theh'

The Troy IN. ~ papers give an ac-
count of n meeting OF the employees of the
Atlantic and Pacific Telegraph Company
embraced in the First Division, which was
held Sunday afternoon. The meeting was
in reference to the death of G.. J.. Goodwin.
late Superintendent of that division. All
the stations included i'm that division were
connected into one circuit, extending from
New York to Albany, thence via Troy to
Saratoga and return To Albany. westward
TO Syracuse. and via Oswego. Clyde. and
Rochester to Buffalo and Niagara Falls.
back from Buffalo via Auburn. Seneca
Falls. etc. to Auburn again. The meeting
was held by telegraph. Each person re-
manned in his own Office and telegraphed
his remarks or motions To the others
Promptly at p. IN. buffalo time New
York called the meeting TO order. Buffalo
moved that Mr.. Hauff. chief operator at
New York. be made permanent chairman.
The motion was seconded by Troy. and
carried. The chairman then suggested
that Mr.. Mccoy. manager of the Buffalo
office, be nominated n secretary, 10 which
the meeting unanimously resolved in the
affirmative. The chairman then said: .
think IL l. well understood that the object
of this meeting Is 10 take some measures
i'm respect to c. l.. Goodwin. our late SUI
perintendent, and pass resolutions of re-
spcct and sympathy Any remarks will
now be in order. Allow me to suggest
that they be brief. as we have not much
time, after which will call on Mr. Mccoy
for short statement of the particulars of
his death" Albany then moved that a
committee from the Buffalo Office. with
Mr.. Mccoy as chairman. be appointed to
draft resolutions. Seconded by Brewster's
and carried. Buffalo then announced the
names of nine gentlemen connected with
that Office a. the Committee on Resolu-
lions. The chairman then called on Mr..
Mccoy. of Buffalo. for the particulars of
Mr.. Goodwin's illness and death, TO which
Mr.. Mccoy responded with remarks. of
about thirty minutes duration. which
were listened to with the closest attention.
New York then asked ii any one else had
any remarks to offer. Troy said: III pre-
sumo many of us would, but as the time is
going fast, suggest we hear the resolu-
tons mt once" The resolutions Were then
read and adopted. and an adjournment
then followed. The meeting was entirely
harmonious throughout, and the state OF
the weather and condition of the wires pc
culiarly favorable to its success.
