house," asked a stranger of a man
near Pittsburgh. THAT is a water
mark. That mark shows how high the
water was during the great overflow
about a year ago. Impossible! If the
water had been that high the whole
town would have been swept away"

DEATH OF WILBUR f. STOREY.

The announcement of the death of Mr..
Wilbur F. Storey Oct. 2Sth, will hardly
create any surprise in this community,
nor, sad as it is to write it, any general
feeling of sorrow or regret. There was
a time in the history of the great news
paper he controlled that the tidlngs of
his death would have been received with
almost a feeling of relief in Chicago.
But for number of years Mr. Storey
has ceased to be terror to- the just as
we'll as the unjust in this city, and now
the news of his death is heard only with a
shrug of cursory interest and
an expression of curiosity as to
what will now become of the
Chicago Times. This is the penalty
the man who lives the life of an Ishmae-
lite pays in death. We do not wish TO
say.anything harsh of Mr.. Storey now
that he is passed beyond this worlds
judgment, except to draw the proper
lesson from the fact, that in death he has
reaped as he .sowed. He conducted his
business without conscience, without
convictions-without regard for the pro-
prieties of life. He welded the power of
the mighty engine unrestrained by any
ideas of moral responsibilities or sensi-
bility to the feelings of others. He was
not permitted to close his eyes before an
unseemly struggle for his property had
been begun, and he died almost friend
less and alone in the midst of city so
full of a multitude he might have won to
be his mourners. The lesson of his life
and death should not be lost.-Chic0go

Arrangements having been made for
Geographic dispatches, courthouse hall
was occupied until late hour last night
by large crowd of citizens eager for news.
The first bulletin received about O. clock,
indicated Democratic gains in New York.
This sort of news continued to come dur
ing the entire evening. Up to the time Of
receiving the last dispatch, about 2 this
wednesday, morning, indications point
ed strongly to victory for Cleveland in
New York, New Jersey and Connecticut.
OF course the returns were very incom
plete and unsatisfactory, and the vote
exceedingly close. But if Cleveland has
carried these states he is elected President
of the United States. There is room for
hope that New York will yet show Re-
publican majority when complete returns
are received.

cratic ticket, Cleveland receiving ma
