The sConeer Press in commenting upon
the evidence produced in regard to the
new election precincts in Cass county,
says:
''The truth probably is, that there are more
actual residents hidden away in hooks and cor
ners of this swampy and wooded wilderness than
people generally suppose
= The P. P. is evidently paving the way to
swindle Cass county by sending up a lot

Special Telegram to the Globe

CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-Congressman Geo. G.
Houghton of the Third Wisconsin dis
trict, arrived in Chicago and registered at
the Palmer house. where a GLOBE repre-
sentative found him during the evening.
In response to the usual questions as to
the outlook Mr.. Hazelton replied that there
was nothing especially new. ......
"What we want to especially know
about,'' said the reporter, els the condi-
ton of the fight it your own district"
SWELL, might as we'll begin at the be-
ginning. The Third district is composed
of the five counties of Dane, Green, Grant,
Iowa, and Lafayette. Mr.. Reyes got tho
20 delegates from Dane and Green;
I got the % delegates from the other three
Reyes did not have single
primary delegate. In Lafayette the ma
jority instructed for me. When the con-
gressional convention met at Monroe
there were three contesting Reyes dele
gates from Lafayette. The committee ON
one of the contestants, and two to one
against the other two. The Reyes men
asked permission to withdraw, and the
convention took recess for the purpose.
At $50 the next day the Reyes men got
together in another room and nominated
him. He had but twenty votes in the
original convention and had twenty-five.
That is all there is of it, and there is no
legitimate ground for contest"
s'What were the allegations of bribery
and undue influence based upon?"
sit all grew out of the position of Mr..
Stickney, of Mazomanie. He is we'll
known there as above suspicion. He was
elected in delegation, of course pledged
to Reyes, but he voted with us on the
temporary organization. The /. talk. of
bribery or corruption with such q man is
preposterous, as he is worth rs much as
Reyes and myself put together. The
committee on credentials was appointed
by the chairman, consisting of three mem
beers, and they were all for me. Stickney
was received at the depot by every man in
his town, and his action was heartily en-
-dorsed by all. I had the fair majority of
the delegates, and that is the whole
trouble"

plainly than before that his chances were
not - favorable as he had
believed. During the day
he sent for the leading Republican mana

est conversation with him on this subject.
While no advice was given, the gentleman's
position being such that he could not af-
ford to offer positive counsel, the interview
terminated with the Judge being more de-
termined than ever to remain where he is
He appears to be impressed that
the outlook in the state is far less

Beecher on the Saratoga Convention.
New YORK, Oct. Rev. Henry Ward
OcSCuer III MS SormOu CO-u1RQC aG 1ly-
mouth church, said: SIN the great con-
vention which met at Saratoga, why was
Cornell set aside? It has been
the custsm1 from time immemorial
when a Governor has administered
the duties Of his Office in an honest,
straightforward way, for the people to
present his name again to the enemy. In
this onset no national principle was To-
volved. and young men would never get a
better opportunity of administering re-
proof to the party than at present. Judge
Folger was an upright man, and for that
reason the reproof would be administered
to corrupt nomination and not to the
man himself. Judge Folger should be sent
home, and never again in this generation
at least, would this thing be repeated. s'Mr.
Beecher, in emphatic terms, deprecated
the administration, taking part in the
management of local government. He
criticised the idea of the president of the
United States having, as bosom friends,
men like one of the police commissioners.
Mr.. Beecher was frequently interrupted by
applause, which he checked once by telling
his audience not to boil over, as he was
merely discussing the morals and ethics of
politics.

denying himself every luxury and not
q few necessaries in order to add to
his collection: the Well-furnished
library of which he WAS custodian be-
ing insufficient to satisfy his literary
cravings. He lived in the upper part
of the socicty's premises, but admitted
no one to enter his rooms for any pur-
pose whatever. On his sudden death,
in 1866, their privacy was perforce
invaded. His bedroom, or what pass
Ell for such, was found to contain moth
ing in the way OF furniture save al
Old sofa, which had served him for u
bed, upon which lay o pair OF OLD
blankets, his sole nightly covering.
Piles Of books were heaped up prolnis-

The Preacher Gets Left.

George Bovard is, says the Pittsburgh
Commercial, the name of young Meth
odist minister, who attended the annual
conference of the M. E. church at Mer-
Ger, couple of years ago. While there,
he and young lady teacher of the Sol
diers' Orphan school, located in Mercer,
fell in love with each other. Her name
was Clara Shaffer. He was about to
start for India to Christianize the heath
en-. A correspondence kept up between
the two, and he wanted her to come to
him, be married, and assist him in his
labors. He had no money to pay her
expenses, and she had none. In this
emergency, few months ago, she made
q confident of ..Dick" Wright, heavy
clothing merchant of Mercer, and he
being big-hearted man with generous
impulses, offered to supply her with
what money she needed to reach her
far-o1f lover. She gladly accepted his
offer, and OF once began her prep
arations for the long journey. "Dick''
and Miss Shaffer were thrown much
together for awhile, and about
the time she was ready to start he was
deeply iu love with her himself. But
he said nothing, and she started for
New York with enough of '.Dick's"
money in her pocket to take her to In
dia.
Two or three days after her depar-
ture he grew Respondent, and chided
himself for having given away his
chances for marrying Miss Shafer him
self. A thought struck Kim. and that
was to follow her, and, if possible, ov-
ertakc her before she boarded steam
CT in New York for distant India. He
acted promptly on the thought, took the
cars, reached New York, and fonnd the
vessel on which she was to sail. Miss
Shafer was already on board; he made
known lis affection, and asked her for
her hand for himself, was accepted, and
the two returned to Mercer few days
ago as man and wife.
The outcome is little rough on the
minister, who is wrestling with super
stition and idolatry in the jungles of
India.

Oil soap suds, made in the proportions
Of one pound of the soap to eight gal
Ions of water. The objections to this
remedy are that it has q disagreeable
odor and is liable to discolor the open
ing buds. busting freely with powder
ed white hellebore has also been tried
with very good success, and it may be
used in water by dissolving tablespoon
full of tho powder in two gallons of boil
