THERE are few political parties
in the whole history of the world
there have been few-which would
like to publish such defence OF
their party chief as that which is
embodied in Hon. jeremiah s.
Blacks defence of Garfield In the
Credit Mobilier. There are certain
considerations pertaining to this
matter which we will consider in
their order. Imprimis, Judge
Black was the paid attorney Of
Garfield and other smirched Re-
publican congressman in the Cred
it Mobilier infamy. Secundus,
Garfield swore that he had neither
received nor agreed TO receive, any
Credit Mobilier stock, nor any div
idends arising therefrom. Tertius,
Judge Black, assuming the perjury
of his client and friend, in his ex-
culpatory letter, admits that Gar
field agreed to receive the stock
and received its dividends, but says
that, ia his opinion, the Republi.
can nominee did SO innocently.
When Garfield swore that he had
received neither stock nor divi-
dends he was unaware of the
damning extent of the coming de-
velopmeuts. He thought he could
persuade his fellow Republican
Congressman, Cakes Ames, to sup.
plement his (Garffeid,s) perjury by
an additional perjury, treating
the 1920 dividend as loan. Cakes
Ames simply did not belong to the
perjury brigade, and told tine truth,
producing the original entries, with
q pencil memorandum, in Gar
fields handwriting, claiming larg'
er profits than Ames was willing
to allow. The Republican party
in nominating Garfield and Ar.
thur, has made for itself q very
dirty bed and must lie in it until
the November election gives II
the melancholy but welcome relie
of extrusion from power, which in
wolves q change of lodgings.

MOST UNPOPULAR MAN IN THE HOUSE.
An anonymous letter had appeared just be
fore the election of President by the Repre-
sentatives, announcing an "unholy coali-
tion " between Mr.. Adams and Mr.. Clay,
by which the support of the friends of the
latter had been transferred to the former,
"as the planter does his negroes or the
farmer his team and horses" Mr.. Clay at
once published card, over his signature
in which he called the writer "a base and
infamous calumniator, a bastard ands liar. 1"
Mr.. kremer replied, admitting that he had
written the letter. but in such manner
that his political friends were ashamed of
his cowardice, while the admirers of Mr.
Clay were very indignant, the more so as
they suspected that Mr. James Buchanan
had instigated the letter. Mr.. Kremer was
of vulgar presence, with repulsive features
and Il shock of light yellow hair. Fancying
himself a wit, he was always endsavoring
to make some humorous remark, but was
rarely rewarded with laugh.
The erratic Mr.. David Crockett was then
4 member of the House, but had not at
tracted public attention, although the Jack
son men were angry because he, one of old
Hickory's officers in the Creek war, was a
devoted adhcrent Of Henry Clay for the

AN ELECTION.

Shortly before noon on election day a
chap whose boot heels showed four kinds of
clay and streak of plank-road soil beside
and whose general makeup was sfierce as
that OF any Texas Jack on the prairie ap
peared at the upper precinct of the Eleventh
ward, Detroit. Some folks thought he was
candidate, but he wasn't. Others thought
he voted in that ward, but he didn't.
. | come in to see the fun and like enough
square off to a few myself, he replied to
those offering him tickets, and he took a
seat on fence and waited to hear some one
call some one else n liar and n row to begin.
Nothing transpred, however, to disturb
the general peace and harmony, and after
about half an hour the young man got down
off his perch and said to Il citizen.
"What in the blazes do you call this,
anyhow
1t is an election" was the reply.
Mighty thin this for an election Why,
out i'll my town we only poll 12O votes but
we are all day doing it, and we average one
knock-down for every five ballots put
through the window I'm just dying to see
a row, but you are all SKINNED milk folks
around here"
The good citizen didn't want the stranger
to carry home Il bad impression of Detroit
and after looking around bit he said:
Down around the corner in a saloon |
should't wonder if you'd find some of the
boys in there. If you want to rouse any
of them just smash their hats over their
ears and tell 'em your wild cat from the
openings"
GOOD 'nutf-wild cat-hansed if I
don't!' shuckled the young man, and away
he danced.
In about twenty minutes 4 boy came run
ming for an officer and said that man had
been killed. In the roadside ditch was
barrel. damned into that barrel head first,
was the wild cat from the interior, and the
man who iammed him sat on the saloon
steps singing My Grandfather's Clock
squintins up and down for lost overcoat
button. When the wild cat was pulled out
of his retreat his overcoat was split in two,
his shirt nearly torn eli, and his nose and
eyes had Il butcher shop look.
WHATS all this!'' demanded the officer
as he rendered the loan of Il handkerchief
" Bin lckedr' was the humble reply.
"Who by?"
81 dunno, didn't get to see morn half

" Aren't You the chap who was blowing
around up ut the polls about the fun at your
town meetings."
81 are"
"And what do you think now?''

trick ahead Of us, replied the young man,
as he pulled some grass to wipe his nose.

SAFETY IN RAILROAD TRAVEL.

In his recently published " Notes on Rail
road Accidents" Mr.. Chas. Francis Adams,
Jr., shows that the percentage of loss of life
and of personal injuries on railroads is ex-
cecdingly small, when compared with the
amount of travel, and that the risks of rail-
road travel are much less than they are
popularity supposed to be. He cites statis-
ties to prove that it is actually safer for ::
man or his family to travel by rail than to
stay at home, thus corrohorating the saying
attributed to John Bright, that the safest
place in which man could put himself was
inside Il tirst-class railroad carriage of a
train in full motion. During the eight years
from 1870 to 1873 the whole number of lives
lost in operating the entire railroad system
of Massachusetts, was IT, 100, or an average
of lag 4 year, while in Boston the recorded
deaths from accidental causes during the
ten years from 1868 to 1873 were >, ,:jS7, or an
annual average of 259. These results show
that in the City of Boston alone the yearly
number OF deaths caused by accidents was
so per cent greater than the number re-
ported on all the railroads Of the State
This comparison is net peculiar to Massa-
chusetts, but may be taken as approximately
accurate for other places. Indeed statistics
We're published years ago in France show
ing that people were less safe at home than
while travelling on the railroads. Another
fact which will serve to reassure the timid
is, that of the whole number of persons ac-
cidentally killed or injured on railroads,
but a small proportion are passengers
Many of those who lose their lives or are
personally injured, are employees who are
constantly exposed to risk by virtue of their
employment and whose familiarity with
danger leads them to be careless, and even
toolhardy oftcntimes But, as Mr.. Adams
shows, the greatest and most regular cause
of death and injury in tho operation of rail
roads is the reckless habit of walking on
the track, which is common with too many
people, and especially with those who are
more or less drunk More than one-thrd
of all tine railroad casualties reported in
Massachusetts are classified under the gen.
eral head of accidents to trespassers, That
is, accidents to men, women, and children,
especially the latter, Illegally lying, walk
ing, ca playing on the tracks, or riding on
