An Indiana Trick.

1t is alleged that DUDLEY, Comm:s.
sioner of Pensions, is working the ma
chinery. OF the Pension Bureau to ir-
fuence the soldier element in Indiana to
vote the Republican ticket next fall.-
Senstor VOORHEES, has been active in Oh
tanning pensions for soldiers and DuD-
LEY game is to convince tie soldiers
that Republican Congressmen are the
men who are doing the most effective
work for their interests. An Enquirer
correspondent furnishes the following ::
"Since the Enquirer commenced pub
fishing the names OF the pensioners and
the amount Of their allowances, obtain
ed hy hnih Democratic and Republican
members Of Congress, it is charged thai
as soon as Dudley runs across a Claim
which has been filed by Democrat be
holds il back until he can send for or
see Republican member from the same
State, and advise him of the fact that
pension for John Smith, with large
amount of arrears, is about 10 be al
lowed, thereby giving the Republican
mt mber day or two previous notice,
30 that he can notify the beneficiary In
advance of the Democratic member in
language about as follows:"
ain looking after pension claims at
the Department / came across yours,
and took the liberty of interesting my
self in your behalf to urge il along, and
am now happy to inform you that it has
been allowed"
'Now, as any cne familiar With the
workings of the Pension Bureau knows,
it would be impossible for anv other
gentleman than the one who fled the
claim to know any thing about its con-
dition or merits unless the Commission
er or one OF bis subordinaies should de-
llberately call his attention to it 1t Is
known IN one instance where the Dem
ocrstic Congressman has filed a claim
for pension, and the latter has been
advised of it's allowance 'hy Repuhli-
can member from the same State several
days in advance of the notice sent bv
The Democrat who originally fled and
prosecuted the case Therefore it is
fair to presume that il this has been
done in one case It has become the pol
lcv o! the Pension Bureau to do the
same thing in similar ca>es, whether it
may be an Indiana case or one in any
other State For wavs that are dark

The Hon. W. ]. Hendricks, of

suit /: He was sitting in his office

Oars one mo- ribber.to cross" Mr..
Hendricks was impressed with the
boys want of politeness, and said to
him: 'Look here, sir, that's no way
to enter my Office. You need a les
son in behavior. Now, you take a
seat in my chair, and act just as
though you were proprietor-just as
[ do, and I will go out and come in
just as you should" whereupon he
laid down his cigar and went out of
the door. In a moment he returned,
and there sat the boy with his feet
perched upon the table, copy of the
revised statutes of the United States
open in his lap and the half-smoked
cigar IN his mouth, and his hat cooked
down over one eye. The teacher of
manners entered quietly with his hat
IN his hand, but had not fairly got

looked up and said: Jack, you

clean it quick. and then come In heah.

During a county election Jim Me-
Snifter worked very hard for Col.
Percy Yerger, one of the candidates.
They were personal friends. Colonel
Yerger had never promised Jim any
thing, sohe thought he would sound
him on the subject. Colonel Yerger,
people say that if you are elected
you are going to make me your
deputy" remarked Jim, suggestively.
Don't you let them fool you, jim,
retorted Colonel Yerger, Indignantly,
''that's a campaign lie gotten up to
injure me with the respectable
classes. If you hear anybody say
that I am going to appoint you my
deputy, tell him Tn not that kind OF
a man, and you will oblige me very
much Jim went off mad, and
Colonel Yerger, who was afterwafd
defeated, always attributed his de-
feat to Jim's failure to deny the in
furious rumor. They have not spoken
to each other since, for some reason
or other.-Texas Siftings.

The Memphis Appeal is consider
ably exercised over the railroad
question and freight determinations,
and as ali evidence of the injurious
effects of these determinations it
publishes the following extract from
letter published in the Ledger:
If we had a freight agent that
took as much interest in Memphis
and her welfare as he does in Nash
vile, New York, Cincinnati and Lou
isville, Memphis could and would dc
large business in North Alabama
this fall; but giving the above named
cities the advantage IN freights
leaves Memphis out. Freights from
New York to Huntsville are 45 cents
and from Memphis As and 80 cents
Nashville ships a car load of salt to
Huntsville for S32, and the Nashville
Office give the purchaser rebate Of
SO Memphis ships at S32, and
her rebate, when she asks for it, is 8
very cold and unsatisfactory reply
If the Memphis merchants can't get
better rates of freight they would
save money by taking these agents
off of the road. This way of moving
freight a thousand miles cheaper
than they will 100 miles is wrong
and ought not to be tolerated by the
people. 1t will only be question o.
time when the cities of the South
