BETTER LUCK THAN TwEED's.
The Whereabouts of a former RepublI-
b1ican State Treasurer of Kansas.

LAWRENCE. Kansas, Sept. 6.-Sam
Lappin the Republican statesman and
financier, who was held in jail at Topeka
for forging school district bonds and
selling them to the state while treasurer of
state. and who broke Jail about two months
ago, has been heard from. A chum of his
by the name of Stanley, who at the time
was suspected of being the outside man
who engineered Lappins escape, has
written a letter back here giving the
particulars of the escape and fight of
'Shylock" Sam. The letter was written
at sea, and bore date Aug. 16.
1t appears that when Lappin broke
Jail he and his friend Stanley took TO the
brush, where they kept concealed during
the day, travelling only at night. They
crossed the state line north into Nebraska,
avoiding all towns and telegraph stations.
In this way they reached the Missouri
river, which they crossed at Sioux City.
Then they CROPPED their way to Duluth, on
Lake Superior, and took a steamer for
Canada. Reaching Montreal safely they
travelled by rail to Portland, Me-, from
thence by steamer to New York, where
they embarked for Aspinwall. Lappin is
now supposed to be snugly housed in
South America no doubt, where it is be-
lieved his partner, Scfafford, long ago
secured an asylum.

Mr.. Chandler last week announced ex-
ultingly that he had arranged with the
Associated Press agents to have the
election returns in Maine made so as to
be favorable to the Republicans, the OBJ
ject being to get few days start for the
usual lying bulletins about Republican
gains. The effect Of this foxy arrange
ment was somewhat impaired by the fool
ish avowal Of its author, but he places his
opponents at the disadvantage of being
obliged to accept his CARRIED returns till
fair ones can be obtained. But, taking
their own figures, they fall short Of their
majority four years ago, both in Maine
and Vermont, while they have lost the
states Of Connecticut, Alabama,
Arkansas and Oregon, which they carried
four years ago, thus showing how the tide
Is setting towards Tilden and reform.

Colonization in Indiana.

From various parts of Kentucky news
reaches us of departing negroes. Here in
Louisville proper watch is set All sus-
picious persons going to Indiana are made
note of. At this writing. there is not
ferry from the mouth of Licking river to
Paducah which is unattended. Ten days
ago Louisville was the principal port of
egress used by the agents Of Senator Nor
ton. To-day they have changed their base
and are operating from Covington and
Newport by concert with the Republican
committee at Cincinnati. Our informa-
ton is that money has been abundant
since Kilpatrick's letter to Hayes. Much
of it comes from New York, put up by
Morgan and his friends. Gov. Warmoth,
an authority in such matters, says that the
Republicans mean to carry Indiana with
out regard to the cost or the means He
says they can import 20, 900 negroes if they
need them, and that they have the re-
sources to do it. Gov. Morton is at this
very moment negotiating for large sum
of money to be used on election day, and
it is his policy, if he loses the state in
October, to have troops sent to Indiana in
November. This is we'll understood fact
which he will not deny-which he dare
not deny. Courier Journal.
And this is Hayes reform. The Repub-
icans know that the people are tired of
their robbery. They know that ID fair
election they will be buried in ignominious
defeat, and, just merging from six years
of the deepest dyed political crime and
official robbery the world ever saw, they
will stop at no act of wickedness, however
extensive and damnable, after robbing the
people of their money, to rob them Of
their elective franchise by neutralizing
their power with illegal notes.

Bob Ingersoll's Dream.

from hS NeV YORK sun, ISh,
One night, after speaking in his usual
fashion to an audience of many hundred
persons, Bob Ingersoll went to his chamber
aud laid him on his bed to rest He had
a dream.
The man dreamed that he stood in space,
face 20 face with great clock that slowly
beat out the seconds of miserable exist
ence. The face Of the clock was as the
CHASTITY face of death. The hands crawled
over the face like the worms Of corruption,
and crawled slowly on toward the midnight
hour. Every tick of the clock was the
plash Of great drop OF blood in pool of
gore. Every plash of blood sprinkled his
bosom with hideous red. lie tried vainly
to wipe away the stain; and he found that
his hands, too, were red like his bosom
and like the pool of blood at the foot of
the clock. But the hands Of the clock
crept on to midnight.
There shut in around him hot, suffo-
eating fog Of night. Then the hopes and
loves and hates and aspirations within him
groaned and gasped and died The hOt.
suffocating shroud of vapor wrapped him
more closely, and he, too, groaned and
gasped; but death came not to him as it
had come to his hopes and affections. He
stood there alone in the dying universe,
alone with the great clock that splashed
blood at the beat of every miserable sec
ond while the hands crawled on to mid
night,
To this man every breath was an agony,
every heart throb century of pain. He
felt his bones crumbliDg in decay, and his
flesh rotting while it chung to him. His
tongue was swollen in his mouth. His
throat was dry and horribly bitter. He
cared no longer for the stains of red blood,
but bathed his brow and his eyes in the
pool and II oistened his lips with the clotted
gore. 10 the same breath he blasphemed
and prayed for the light of morning.
The hands of the clock reached mid
night and stopped. There was no grow
ing hours thereafter, no dawn, no morning
light, no sun. Even the blood stopped
FLASHING, and the pool dried away so that
he could no longer moisten his lips or
quench the indescribAble thirst that con-
sumed him.
In anguish that was terror, and in r tie
ror that was agony, he broke the awful
silence and cried:
is there no sunlightY
A Voice, louder, haIsher, hoaIser, and
as sneering as his own, answered out OF
the silence
There is no sunlight for the stirrer up
Of strife.
After an eternity, again he cried:
rs there no dawn"
And the Voice replied, with bitterer
sneer:
There is no dawn for the denier and
the liar and the blasphemer."
When an eternity OF eternities had pass
ed, he cried out once more:
My God is there no mcrning?"
And the Voice came back
There is no morning, and you have no
Godw

From the Bureau County Tribune,
The Independent Congressional Cor
vention at Opera Hall.


The Tribune has no desire TO imprgn
the motives OF any gentlemen who we're
present and took yart in the Independent
congressional convention, at Opera Hall
last week. But, it is compelled to remark
upon certain eccentricities exhibited by
some gentlemen present. aud from these
its readers can draw their own conclusions
and the future will decide as to their cor
RICHNESS. But let us first sketch the stu
alton. The holding Of this convention
Afforded an opportunity to scotch the
greenback movement and paraIyze the
opposition to Henderson, by putting in the
FIELD two opposition candidates. With
these premises let us return 10 the gentle
men, or portion Of the gentlemen, pres
ent in the convention, from this county.
There were gentlemen present from this
county who have never attended any of
greenback county conventions, nor have
they heretofore been identified with the
Independent party. They were present
and, although shown unquestionable proof
that Mr.. Durham was sound on the cur
rency question, they steadily refused to
ratify his nomination, and, so exquisite
was their torture at their inability to bring
fort another congressional candidate that
they we're frequently compelled to have
recourse TO the counsel and consolation Of
The daily Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1873-1877, 1876-09-18

Gen. Henderson, who occupied one of the
back seats and who, throughout, attended
the travail Of these gentlemen who were SO
anxious to defeat him in his congressional
aspirations by putting two candidates in
the field against him,
As previously stated the Tribune does
not impugn the motives of these gentle
men, but merely remarks the incident and
will turn down leaf for future reference.
