An anonymous correspondent of the Bos-
ton Herald, writing from Indianapolis, de-
MES that Dorsey saved Indiana for the Re-
publicans in October, 1880.
This is an easy thing to say now. Let Us
see how certain Republicans have regarded
Dorsey's services in Indiana.
In January, 1881. when the dinner to
celebrate Dorsey's Indiana achievement
wa proposed, Swain, who now declares
that he and Garfield knew that Dorsey
had q screw loose in his moral make up"
wrote as follows:
my DEAR DoRsET:-Believe me. I am
glad clear down in my boots at the 1T
ting and merited compliment you are to
receive"
On October Il, 1850, the following letter
was written:
"My DEAR DORsEr:-I especially CON-
graduate you on your mssterfIl manage
ment Of the campaign and the thorough
ness with which You have watched all the
details and incidents OF the fight. Let mt
counsel you now to take some much.
needed rest, and save yourself for the Anal
struggle soon to come on"
The next day the same person wrote:
"Your work In Indiana has vindicated
itself and silsnced all cayillsrs. Nothing
succeeds like success
Itmay be proper to mention that the
writer ofboth these letters was Gen. James
A. Garfield.

HOADLY AND FORAKER

There is q very general demand, OUT
side the State as well as within, for q
'oint debate between the opposing can
didates for Governor in Ohio.
The local issues are somewhat con-
fused. They are not very clearly un-
derstood, We think, by the masses OF
the people within the State, and the
comments of the outside press show
how much at sea the country is upon
many questions affecting the canvass.
There are also some questions of more
than o local character involved in the
campaign. An effort has been made
to give 1t q national character. Ohio
d regarded In some important measure
the battle ground of the Presidential
contest. HoADLY and FORAHES are

Settle It.
Ner York World,


The Western Union has now a golden
opportunity. IT has shown itself 10 be
powerful. Let il now show itself to be
liberal, dissrm pre- JUDGE and gain popu'
larity.
Telcgraphic communication is such q
universal necessity of all interests and all
people that every person engaged in the
busiuess-the director who sits in the
board room and the operator who bends
over the key-flIs, as II were, a public p)-
si,ioa, almost of trust. \ telegraphic
strike ought never ID take place. Both
employers and employees should at least
first exhaust all means OF effecting a COM
premise. An interruption of the business
Furnishes innocent parties who use the
wires, more than the millionaire managers
against whom it is directed.
1t is perfectly natural that in any con-
flict between a corporation like the West
ern Uuion and its employees the public
should sympathize with the latter. They
are, as a class, bright, intelligent, industri-
Gus and Woodworking people. Many Of
them are delicate girls and women who sup
port families. 1t is necessary for them to
be regularly employed.
Yet they are now in idleness, while both
tue public and the telegraph companies
would be benefited by their services.
The sooner the breach between the COM
panieS and the operators is healed the bet
ter for all parties. 1t is all wrong that the
one should be Boosting Of their indepeud-
ence of the strike and the other of their
ability to hold out. They have interests in
common. The Western Union should be
Just and liberal if it wants to be poprle~
She operators should be reasonable. ihev
have certainly acted thus far in an Crderly
manner. Not a single act of violence or law
les>ness is reported. Under such circum.
stances compromise is not only easy but a
duty. The telegraph companies have
made it evident that they can continue to
do business despite the strike. But the
return OF the old operators to their instru-
ments would mean an immediate resump-
ton of the business in all the efficiency
for which il has been remarkable. This is
what the public interest demands. This
is what the companies desire.
Concession is the road to con promise.
The strong and rich and powerful can
well afford to be liberal.

WHILE the strike of the telegraphers
is the most important of the labor agi-
tations now in progress, there are two
other important struggles going IN in
New York. Fifteen firms, representing
the Cigar Manufacturers Union, have
closed their doors in order to break up
the union of their employees, the cigar
makers. Also the Dress and Cloak
makers Union, numbering about six
hundred persons, have struck work for
higher wages. There are said to be about
eight thousand cigarmakers locked out,
of whom at least six thousand belong
to the union. Both sides are confident
of success, but it is generally expected
that no action will be taken before the
middle or end of next month.

other things, that the coroner of Ian.

The fest death, since the new law

The deceased was a patient from

UNDERGROUND Wires

The city of Chicago is determined
to rid itself of the dangerous nuisance
of overhead telegraph wires, and we
hope Its energetic examples will be fol.
lowed In every large city where the
lives of hundreds Of people are put In
jeopardy of being done to death by
smoke or In the flames because the
network Of wires prevents the ffemen
from doing efficient work when hotels
and other public building are on fire.
1t would be troublesome, of course,
and costly at first, for the telegraph
and telephone companies to place their
wires under ground; but once done,
they would find It the cheaper as we'll
- the better arrangement. The
change has been made In London after
the most strenuous resistance, and
none of the dire disasters predicted
has occurred. On the contrary,
everything works better than was ex.
pected, and II was no such great Job
to make the change after all. Leaden
pipes varying from six inches to fifteen
inches In diameter, according to the
number of wires required, are placed
about twelve or eighteen inches deep
in the sidewalks, close to the curb.
The wires, coated with gutta percha or
other non conducting substance, are
placed within, and all urban messages
are flashed along close &c the toea of
pedestrians. Aoout every hundred
yards IL q small connecting trap, gen.
orally concealed BY q figstone, and by
this means access can be had to the
wires at any time,
An English correspondent of the
Philadelphia Telegraph, to whom we
are indebted for this description of the
underground system In London, says
that curious GRO wds of idiers would
gather around the workmen engaged
In repairing the wires, and thus i'm.
pede the traffic, so an arrangement;to
obviate this inconvenience was de-
vised. Little square tents of brown
canvas about seven feet high, covering
about four feet square, are placed over
the trap whence the wires are being
withdrawn for repairs, causing but
slight obstruction, aud two.thirds OF
the persons passing by are unaware of
what Is going on within. Any break.
age of q wire or leakage can easily be
located between two of the access
traps, and any ordinary repair can be
done In an hour or even less. So sue.
cessful indeed has the underground ar.
rangement proved In London and other
large cities, that 1t has been seriously
proposed to bury all the telegraph
wires in England, though there is nc
particular danger attending overhead
lines away from the cities, ss they are
almost entirely carried along the rail.
roads. But telegraph engineers are
beginning to believe that the greater
economy 10 the maintenance of under
ground tel. graphs would actually
make the System cheaper In the long
run.
This, a~ssuredly, Is one Of the i'm
proyements that must be with essed II
all cities sooner or later.
