JOHN wv. FORhEY.

Colonel John w. Forney, the dis.
tinguished Journalist and politician,
who died in Philadelphia on the 9th
inst, was born In Lancaster, Pa. on
Sept. 30th, 1917, and was therefore
64 years old. From early life he
was a prominent leader in the Dem
ocratic party, aad very influential
writer. From 1851 to 1856 he was
Clerk of the House of Represents.
tives at Washington. In 1857, how.
ever, he cut loose from the adminis~
tration of President Buchanan aud
supported Stephen A. Douglas in
"Forney's Press" at Philadelphia.
He was again elected Clerk of the
House of Representatives in the Seth
Congress. In 1861 he was elected
Secretary of the United States Sen.
ate, aud served until he resigned in
1868. During the wer he was q rad
ical republican and Union man, and
furnished able support to the cause
of abolition through his two papers
the Washington "Chronicle'' and
Philadelphia "Press." He took an
active part in the impeachment trial,
earnestly supporting Congress in
opposition to President Johnson, and
sharply criticising the actions of the
Senators who voted against sustain
ing the articles of impeachment;
these Senators we're: Fessenden, OF
Maine, Van Winkle, of West Virgin
ia; Fowler, Of Tennessee, brother-in.
law OF the President; Trumbull, o!
Illinois; Henderson, of Missouri;
Ross. OF Kansas; and Grimes, OF
lows. This caused him to resign
his Office. He soon afterwards dis
posed of his Washington paper, and
at later period sold the one at
Philadelphia, and has recently been
editing a weekly paper-the "Pro-
gress." In the campaign last year,
Col. Forney supported the Demo
cratic presidential ticket, and wrote
"a eloquent "Life of General Han.
cock"
Col. Forney was q man of great
iorcs of character; brilliant and
splendid writer, his 6ne abilities al
ways brought their value in the mar
ket of the world. He was inordin
stely ambitious, an inseparable con.
comitant of success everywhere, and
had it not been for his few mistakes
be would have attained yet more
eminent positions. He is mourned
by a large circle of personal friends

that will increase the profits CT the

fact that the slabs can be sawed up

s1AIE PRINTER THATCHER.

The Republican Legislative caucus
on the State Printer question did a
fine thing for Hon. +. ID. Thacher and
rather laid out the Hon. Geo. w. Mar
tin. Ii was so unanimous i'm its action
that it even surprised its projectors.
II gave peace and comfort to the men,
bers who were i'm favor of the caucus
as well as TO those who were against.
II has become a precedent which we
hope to see continued.
The caucus met last Monday even
ing, and 40 members participated in
il. Just rs the nominations were be-
ing made letter from Geo. w. Mar
tin was read i'm which that gentleman
announced that he desired his name
withdrawn from the candidacy for
State Printer. Nominations were then
made with the following result !:
Thatcher, ia votes: w. ii. Caldwell,
Betoh Courier, II votes, and {. Ii.
Hamilton, II votes. Mr.. TEACHERS
nomination was then made unanimous.
4 resolution conmendatOry of Mr..
Martins record rs State Printer for
the last eight years was passed unani =
mou.ly, SO that he really finds victory
i'm defeat. The objection raised gener-
ally was not to Martin rs an official or
rs a man, but to his having held an
Office so long which should be "passed
around among numerous deserving
Republicans.
Mr.. Thacher's remarks i'm accepting
the nomination contained a handsome
compliment for the official record Of
the present incumbent. At the cleo
ton held OH Tuesday the choice of the
caucus was made the choice of the
Legislative joint-convention by u vote
of 100 for Thatcher to IL for II. Clay
Park, of the Atchison Patriot.
Mr.. TEACHERS long service for the
interests Of our party and state entitle
him TO the recognition which he has
just received, and we hope to see him
greatly benefited financially and pol
iticaily by the Office. We notice by
the Topeka Commonwealth that he was
elected to the same Office twenty-five
years ago by the Territorial Legisla-
ttse, but was prevented from fill
ing it by the action of the then Secre-
tary OF the Interior who continued to
control the printing, and CAV 1t to Joe
