Cup Salt River"

The origin Of the expression. sup
Salt river" as applied to a defeated
political party, was as follows:
Davy Crockett, the famous Kentuck y
Congressman, while a Wing candidate
was challenged by his Democratic OPP
ponent to meet him on the stump in
joint discussion. Crockett accepted,
and the day and place were fixed, but
Crockett did not appear, and the peo-
pie, thinking him afraid to do so, raj
lied for his opponent and elected him.
1t afterwards turned out that Crockett,
who had started out for the place in a
canoe propelled by negro, had been
landed 10 the forest at the head waters
of the Salt river, by his treacherous
guide, who then swiftly padded of
down the stream. Crockett was too
good hunter to starve in the wilder
ness, but he was totally unable to reach
the appointed place in time, and gave
it up, and with it chance of election.
Hence the phrase "Up Salt River
meaning that party is hopelcssly de-
feated. Crockett, however, was more
lucky two years afterwards, being
elected by handsome majority.

Last week on the G. NJ. & St. p. 4.
R., an engineer with a freight train
discovered woman on the track ahead
of the train between Portage and Xii
bourn. He rang the bell to warn her
of danger, but, singularly enough, she
started to run on the track ahead of tb e
train. and after running a short dis
lance she paused, when the engineer
sounded the whistle for down brakes,
and she started to run again, but before
the train could be stopped, the pilot on
the engine struck her; just as she was
about to be struck by the pilot, the
engineer, expecting she would be
crushed to atoms, turned his eyes away
not daring to look upon what he sup
posed would be frightful spectacle.
The train was stopped as soon as pos
sible, and the men started back, as they
supposed, to gather up the scattered
remains OF the unfortunate woman; but
they soon met her trudging along as
though nothing had happened. She
would give no account of her strange
conduct, and the train came on, leav-
ing her in her glory. 1t seems that

attention to such frivolous things when
there was ballot for the reform tick ct
unpolled! We submit that his excuse
is only an aggravation of the original
offence. He says he did not know he
was swearing that he was household
er in the I'd ward, nor that it made
any difference whether he was or not
But there was the affidavit to which
he subscribed, bearing upon its face all
the information he required. 1t was
his business to kno,c what he was do
ing, for his oath was essential and with
out it Hawlcy had no right to vote,
even if all other points were clear. All
Of which will serve to show him that
"reform is necessary" in his style of
making afidavits at elections.
