An old and prominent Republican of West
ern Connecticut, George W. Mygatt. of New
Milford, has announced that he will vote for
Cleveland, because he cannot support a man
whose record is SO bad as Blaines. Mr. Mygatt
has for many years held an important Federal
office, and is well known to bankers.
Mr.. Thurman says in answer to the question
regarding the opposition to the Pacific railway
sinking fund bill EDO you think Blaine was
in secret collusion with Gould, Dillon and
Huntingdon" 81 know nothing about it. Moth
ing was ever said between Blaine
and myself privately that would indicate
that Mark you, am not questioning the mo-
ives of any of the men who opposed us They
were senator's and had their rights. l do not
claim to have any private evidence against
them. l judge of their motive AZ the public
doubtless does-and as am willing to have
my motives judged. by the record-by their
public acts. TWAS plain to me that Blaine de-
sired to kill the bill 1t is not for me to say
what his motive was, or If any improper in
fuences controlled him.

Logan's Way OF Talking.

.
The only Dem ociat whose statues are
raised in public places in this country, the
only man distinctively Democrat who
has won national position in positive his
sory, the man who is idolized by the whole
Democratic party and before whose name
is paraded the title of saint, was Andrew
Jackson. He was a most illiterate man.
Whenever hear Democrats assailing
Logan think OF Jackson's spelling "All
Correep OIL KorecL Logan IL not an ILL
terate man. He has a fine education.
But like great many men, like Gen. Glib
son, the most eloquent orator in the west
TO day, he sometimes in heated talk uses
the old idiomatic forms of the verb that
his ancestors used. II isn't because he
doesn't know better, but because Of the
force OF habit In childhood But If the
Democratic party could canonize Jackson,
they should say nothing about Logan.
In this connection ii would be as well
TO repeat the conversation OF an intelligent
old lady OF Cincinnati, formerly resident
among the "F. f. VS." OF Virginia, to il.
lustrate that Mrs. General Jackson aud the
General were "one," in point OF illite,acy,
at least. II was In February 81, when he
morning papers described handsome bon.
net that Mira. Lincoln had purch ased OF a
Fifth street milliner. The conversation
turned upon the iliieracy and friviolity Of
Presidents wives and the wives of great
men In general, when the old lady in ques.
ilon gave her experience at quilting
party In Virginia, when but girl, where
similar subject was under discussion
One OF the old ladies Of the period asserted
that Mrs. General Jackson was iliiterale,
and 10 illustrate the assertion gave yerba-
tim Mrs. General Jackson's own language
10 express how she had canght severe
cold The night previous. viz: "The GIN
eral was very risllesa last night and he
kicked the kivers of and that Is the way
j kecll H." Mr.. Chance would call this
"old idiomatic forms OF the verb" nsed by
her ancestors. And thus such expressions
ara passed down from generation to gener-
stiDn.

Commander Chief of the
G.. A. R.
Gen. John s. Kountz, or Toledo, o.

The Grand Army of the Republic ut iis
last reunion held in Minneapolis, Mimi,
on the sixth ballot elected Gen. John s.
Konnlz, OF Toledo, o its Commnnder-in-
Chief for the ensuing year. Gen Kouniz
succeeds Commander Benth, and il the
yonnge'i official head of the G A. Il. ever
elected by that organization.
Gen. Kountzis an OHIO man by birth
and residence, having been bora in Lucas
county, Narcl, 25. 1916. In 1862 upon
the organization Of the Thirty seventh
Ohio Volunteers he enlisted In that regi-
ment as q drummer boy and hravely con-
dncted himself in number Of heavy bat
Ties. His regiment was in the charge upon
the heights of Missionary Ridge when
friend oi yonng Konnz's fell ut his side,
killed. The drummer hoy threw away his
drum, seized the mu4ket and surprised his
comrades by an activity and bravery in
that bloody struggle tha. would have
done credit to the most fearless soldier.
Near the close Of the engagement he fell,
so severely wounded in the leg that ampu-
tntion became necessary.
After the close of the rebellion, he re-
turned home, an orphan, with only a
sister to greet his coming. In time his
sterling qualities as n business man at
tracted public admiration, and the voters
oi his native county honored him with
It's Trea surerslip for two years and for a
like period he was Commissioner of Rec
ords. He Then entered the insurance
business and is now the proprietor OF a
large and successful agency in Toledo.
Ever since the organization Of the G. A
r. in 1866, Mr.. Kountz has been identified
with it IN an active capacity. Beginning
with the Adjutancy of his Post he was then
advanced to its Commanderslip, then sue
cessively 10 the Assistant Qunrtermasier.
General and Commandership of the De-
prrlment oil Ohio, and lastly tothe highest
honor in the &. A. r., the Commander in.
Chief OF the order for the Unlled States.
