Street Retaliation.
After Penney lyania railroad clerks In
vRdtd the b. x o. Co.'s Philadelphia
office, on Saturday night, and took pos.
session Of all through tickets issned by
the former on account Of the latter road,
the b. Il o. msn procured q lot OF new
tickets which bore the name Of the B. X
o. railroad exclusively and ignored the
existence Of the Psnnsy lVAnia road.
When General Passenger Agent Wood
Of the PeansylyRniR Company was in
formed Of the enemies latest movement
he smiled and said "You may simply
state that no tickets issued by the Balti.
more & Ohio Company will be recognised
by the gatekeepsrs at the Broad street
station, They will be peremptorily re.
fused"
Then Mr.. Wood wrote an order, struck
ball and dispatched an official message.
The Baltimore & Ohio was again out
fisnked. Upon ssoertRiDirg that his new
tickets were refused, as Mr.. Wood said
they would be, Mr.. Mackenzie packed
them away again nicely.

The Turning Point.

Well, Ohio performs for Grover Cleve
land in 1884 the same Office which North
Carolina performed for Horace Greeley
in 1879. 1t kills him as candidate.
The Democracy will not have Grover
Cleveland for President. They would
not have Greeley, not alone because he
did not represent the ideas of Democra'
cy, but still more because he was not fiji
to be President. For the same high and
resistless reasons they will not have Gro
yer Cleveland now. He does not repre-
sent the ideas of Democracy and he is
not fit TO be President.
Yet in one most important respect the
difference is enormous between these two
candidates, both imposed upon the De-
mocracy by revolving Republican fac
tions Horace Greeley was man of vast
intelligence and knowledge, of spotless
personal character and noble, unselfish
motives. Grover Cleveland is man
tattooed with shame, base and degraded
in his personal relations, living only fol
himself and his own selfish and egotistic
ends, profoundly ignorant, and of barren
commonplace mind.
But Ohio ends Cleveland, as North
Carolina ended Greeley land in the present
case, AS in the former. the great regret is
over the madness and the catastrophe OF
the Democracy. The unfit and deluded
candidate deserves his fate; but the wise
and patriotic must sorrow at the calami-
ty of the party, for it is the calamity of
the country.-N. Y. Sun.

buffalo milk, which is usually greater IL
quantity, thicker In composition and riches

of buffalo milk yields about three ounces OF
ghee, while the same quantity Of cows mill
does not yield more than half that amount
In the Punjaub and Bombay it is stated thai
the difference is not 50 high, the quantity Of
ghee obtained from cows milk being only
one-fourth less than that obtained from
buffalo's milk. But that all depends on ths
nature Of the food given to the cow, cotton
seed and oilcake being considered the mos

A Republican Veteran Leaves His
Death-Bed to Cast His Ballot.

CINCINNATI, Oct. 16.-Captain W. W =.
McColgin, for years connected with the
Bromwell Brush and Manufacturing Co.
on Walnut street, died Tuesday under
peculiar circumstances. He was one of
the first to enlist at the call of President
Lincoln in 1851, and served until the
close of the war, a true, loyal and gal
liant soldier. For the past four months

to leave business, and was confined to
his house, most of the time to his bed.
He knew that recovery was impossible,
but cheerfully and bravely resigned him
self to his fate. During the past three
months, though feeble and suffering
great pain, he took the deepest interest
in the political campaign.
On Monday the sick soldier was very

that the end was near. When the ply

superhuman. raised himself from the pill
low and said:

His strength seemed to return, and to
the surprise of his physicians and friends
he nerved himself by power that was
not natural, was dressed, and by the doc

vote. Returning home reaction took
place. and as they placed him in his bed,
with these words on his lips, Doctor,

and loyal McCOlgin passed away and the

While Mary Anderson was playing

by some unconscious but audible com+
ments passed upon the hero by one OF

When Ingomar bids farewell to Par

native city. and disappears toward his
mountain home, our countryman gave a
sigh of relief as he said, There. he's

How to Work Again.

Now that the character of the victory
| is known and its extent rejoired over,
Republicans must at once address them
selves to the work there is yetto do. The
battle is by no means over. The success
of last Tuesday week will serve to make
the task before US much easier, but
it will not be safe to relax our eff
forts in the slightest degree To consid-
er the fight wholly won would be to in
vite certain defeat when an assured vic>
tory is expected.
1t should not for moment be forgot
ten by Ohio Republicans that they have
this year to deal with an INSCRIPTIONS
enemy rendered desperate by disappoint-
ment, and that no possible scheme will
be left untried by which the State may
be stolen in November. The size of the
Republican majority at the State election
affords basis of calculation for the eff
fort required to overcome ID by fair
means or foul. Fair means offer no hope
and foul means win undoubtedly be tried.
In the usual order of things the No
vember Republican majority will be
double that of October, but the Demo-
cratic managers are concocting plot by
which they hope to wipe out the majori
ty altogether. If the plan is Put into
operation its infamy will bring retribu-
tion upon them, but they care little for
the action of the State in the future if
they can carry their point in the present.
There are less than two weeks in which
to work. In those two weeks the Repub-
licans must work with,if possible, greater
energy than the last three week. Every
vote cast for the Republican State ticket
should be given to Blaine and Logan on
the 4th of November. and in addition
thousands of others that either stayed
away from the polls or that voted for
the candidates of other parties. Rally
the clubs. Spur the vigilance commit
mittees to renewed zeal. Bring in the
recruits. Secure the wavering. To

WE should think the friends of George

easily. The Democratic defeat in Ohio
is the defeat of men who got possession
of the party through fraud of the most

scoundrels, who are experts in fraud
have failed to promote further frauds
through Democratic victory. Whatever
may be the future of the Democratic
party, it cannot succeed with rotten
