The st. Ansgar Enterprise Ii,

The st. Ansgar Enterprise has a
correct model Of a man for Governor,
In IN article in its last Issue which
We reproduce herewith. It will be
observed that the candidate OF the
x-lcacon don't fill Its bill at all. It
is known that while talking ant mo-
nopoly to the farmers; in the senate
his work was for tho railroad
monopolies, and 'his Qack of
loyalty to the cause OF right
and the interests OF the people" is
cvinccd in his own sworn evidence
In pending tax title case where
in he te stified that he had for fifteen
years been participant in ring tax
sales Of farmers property for the
delinquent taxes due thereon. Such q
man, no matter what he processes Is
antagonistic to the interests Oi

wants; the Howard county candidate

A National Union Party.

In the carly part Of November last
the PLAIN DEALER advocated, in an
article that has been very extensive
~ endorsed by the press Of the party,
a reorganization Of the elements OF
opposition to the policy OF the re-
publican hard money and monopoly
propoganists and apologizers.into one
grand National Union party. Mr..
Geo. G. Dcccher OF Canandaigua N.
T., one Of the truest men in our or
ganixation publishes an article in
the Nltional Tien, which is widely
copied, and which not only endor-
ses our position Of last November,
but it goes farther, In that it sug-
gests means for accomplishing the de-
sired object. Without endorsing or
condcmning the proposed details by
which he would arrive Mt his purpose,
We unhcsitatingly and unequivocally
endorse the object Of the proposed
conference. Mr.. Beecher's commu-
nication finds a place in, and has en-
dorsement from the State Tribune,
among the truest aud best of our

CARLO, JANE AND ME.

Whenever papa takes walk,
He always calls US three:
He says he couldn't go without
Old Carlo, Jane and me.
We laugh and talk, and bark and play,
And papa swings his cane:
Once be forgot and killed some flowers,
That stood up in our lane.
And sometimes Carlo runs and jumps,
And Jane stands by q tree
Oh dear! what fun my papa has,
With Carlo, Jane aud me!
And, just for mischief. Carlo barks
At every one We pass:
And makes the shadow Of his tail
Keep Vaughn on the grass.
When Jane can't walk, carry her,
And Carlo carries me;
Then papa always walks beside,
And shouts out "Haw" and "Gee!
l wish he'd come; poor Jane is tired,
With waiting here so long:
Carlo don't mina--nO more DO l,
But Jane was never strong.
Carlo is made of curly hair,
And am ina 'e of me:
But Jane il made of wo ID and things,
As dOllies have to be.
Oh, here he is! Now for our walk:

within fifty miles Of the spot where
l thought | would land. OF course on
short distances, in half hours ascen-
sion, it is different. l only want to say
to you that know there is no such a
thing as eastern air current. Men may
start at western points to come east by
that upper air current, but it is always
q thousand to one that they'll 60 anoth-
er way, and when they come down they
will have no more idea of their latitude
than q child just born, provided they
remain up all night.
"There is novelty, romance, and
plenty of fun in a trip like that; but 50
far as gaining anything of scientific
value, there is no likelihood Of that, alb
solutely none. My own opinion is that
the air will never be navigated, in q
commercial point of view, and all air
navigation with gas is too expensive
ever to come into common use. Flying
machines or air propellers will always
exist only in the minds of enthusiasts.
Applied science has plenty of room for
development on terra firma. When the
Montpelier brothers went up in their
hot-air balloon they made one step.
The introduction Of gas was another
step. Now, let them make balloons out
of silk paper or cambria, air navigation
will never make any progress. | have
heard of them boxing up electricity and
sending it away, retaining its strength
until used. Now, if some one will find
out how to box up gas so that it will
keep while used in initiating balloon, it
will be q discovery worth considerable to
aeronauts, because then they can stay
up until they want to come down. They
oaa stay up to be bloVn wherever the
winds take them. This is the one dis
covery or invention necessary. Then
another invention must be made, an APP
paratus to steer the balloon while in the
air, so that it can be operated like sail.
ing a ship at sea. These are the two
things necessary for positive aerial nav
igation: First, to box up or preserve
the lifting powerof gas for an indefinite
time-until done with it for the trip;
second, to invent steering apparatus.
Until these things are done successfully,
ballooning will be all experiment, hap
hazard, and forever cropping helpless in
the air, without single purpose in full
control. The human mind in q balloon
is perfectly helpless, and physical
strength and scientific skill is of no
avail. Every scientific man I ever had
in the air was glad enough to sit still
up, and gladder still when he was safely
landed. I am positive that there is no
eastern air current blowing steadily all
the time. If there was would know it.

Marvellous Adventures Of q Legislator
Among Indians.

Hon. Sol Barth, Of St. John, Arizona
Territory, arrived in the city Monday.
To journal reporter he gave the fol.
lowing particulars Of his exciting and
romantic adventures with the Apache
Indians on the road: St. John is about
fifty miles south of the A. & B. Road.
Sol Barth is q noted ranchman in that
region, having stores, flocks and horses.
He is Territorial Senator, and quite
prominent in the political affairs Of the
Territory. Once in three months he
comes to this city and buys a stock Of
goods. Last week, accompanied by two
men, he started over the long route from
St. John to civilization. When passing
through a lonely canyon in the Zuni
Mountains, he was atonished to see a
band of Indians circling around q pyra.
mid rock, yelling and firing their guns.
Upon the top Of the rock was a Mexican
mountaineer, with his wife and chill
dren. No sooner did Sol take in the sit
uation than hi charged the Indians, put.
ting the squad, eighteen in number, to
flight, relieving the Mexican and his
family from certain death. He found
the little children crying for water, but
otherwise the family were uniniured.
Escorting the family to place of safety
and leaving one Of his men to repel any
attack the Indians might make, Mr..
Barth, with one assistant, pushed on
toward the city. They had gone but a
few miles when they were confronted by
q band Of Indians, but, their actions
seeming peaceful, Barth thought them
friendly Navajos, and allowed them to
come within speaking distance of the
buggy in which he and his companion
were riding, when the Indians suddenly
opened fire, MORALLY wounding his com.
nanion. The horse became frightened
and overturned the buggy. MI. Barth
seized his Winchester, and, protected
BY the buggy-bed, he drove of his as
sailants, capturing one Of the Indian
ponies. Securing the pony and putting
his wounded companion in the buggy he
drove on. When near the Mexican
town of Ell F.ita he heard firing, and on
approaching the town the Indians re-
turned and attacked him. The people
Of the town turned out and soon the
Indians were driven of. At Ell Rita the
wounded man ded.-Albmguerque IN.
