The following is the vote for tho defeated
A Duke and Merchant I'm Norway.


The bringing host, tho bowling waiter, and
the lodging polyglot U0let de place are un-
known, and their absence is deliciously re.
freshing to all who arc strong enough to
breath tho bracing moral atmosphere resulting
from tho social condition Of the contry that
has never been subject to feudal institutions,
and tho inhabitants of which are curiously
igronant of tho meaning of social status"
where the servants shake hands with their
masters, and masters bow to their servants.
An amusing illustration of this occurred
during my last trip on the Arctic boat. An
English gentleman in tho tea business
wholesale, of course--toolS mo into his con-
fldence, and complained of the extreme
familiarity of these people," the steward
having shaken hands with him when no
entered the saloon in the morning, Ho was
very indignant when l suggested the posi-
bility of tho steward regarding the passengers
as his guests, and himself as their
equal or whereabouts. Among our fellow
passengers was the Duke of ROXburg, spending
his seventeenth summer in Arctic Norway.
Whom the duke was leaving our vessel to
tranship on tho little Lofoden omnibus
packet, directed the attention Of tho tea
merchant to his proceedings All the crew,
who were old friends shook hands with him,
the engineer and stoller coming on deck and
wiping their fingers on cotton waste as
preliminary to tho hearty farewell greeting,
The tea dealer was speechless.

FRAUDULENT DEATH CLAIMS.
An Organized Attempt 10 Cheat an Ia
surance Company.

s"AhSo >o"pahy'
The Albany argus says Several months
ago u letter was received from party in
Eschol, Pa, by the New York State Relief
association. asking for an agency in his
district. AS references tho names of several
prominent persons were given, including
bankers, postmasters physicians, and
others. Tho association sent out conf
dental letters to several parties, and it was
learned that the man was an honest and up
right citizen. He was duly appointed an
agent, and one Of the physicians named in
tho references was made the medical exam
iner. The agent selected him. Soon several
applications were received, and three after
ward dropped out Soon 10 was reported that
ono of the members, &. w. Slater, with an
insurance policy calling for $2,500, had died.
Suspicion of fraud was first aroused when II
postal card from the Eschol postmaster was
received stating that two postal cards from
their oflice-one addressed to James LANCE
and the other George w. Slater, were in that
postotlce, and that no (the postmaster),
was unacquainted with any such persons, but
that a regularly ordained minister of tho
gospel claimed them. Inquiry was then made
of the agent at Eschol as to the whereabouts
of these persons, and n reply came to the
homo Office to the effect that tho parties
resided out Of the village, that they had left
a Qepositwith him to pay their assessments,
and that in future tho cards should be ad-
dressed to his care Shortly following this
an application was received from
Abram Dill, but action on it was
deferred, aud, unknown to tho agent,
tho matter was looked up, and it was
discovered that Abram Dill had been dead
some time. Further inquiry showed that an
agreement existed between tho examiner,
agent, and postmaster Of another town for
working fraudulent death claims The board
of directors then revoked the appointment of
the medical examiner and agent at Eschol,
and notified them that the claim Of Slater was
disallowed. Arrests for Attempting fraud will

thirty, or even twenty years and what
does it proclaim to-day as principles
which it then declared were essential t.
the well-being aud prosperity of the
country Human slavery, aul the meth
DDS to binds its chains, was a Democratic
pet. 1t was hard money and nothing
else. "The war was a failure" Repudi-
stion of the public debt certainty and
necessity. Reconstruction impossible
What will they say on all such questions
and many more in 1884? The Republic
an party backed by the millions of free
men. tore the shackles from 5000, 900
slaves, and made every foot of American
soil Free and every man a freeman under
she law. 1t established a currency, the
best the world has ever seen, and which
the Democratic party dare not assail
While it has paid the debt it owes its
crippled veterans with a generous hand,
it has gone steadily along paying in huge
slices the National Indebtedness. It has
by wise legislation, reduced interest from
10 per cent to 8. By protection to our
industries manufactures have sprung up
all over the land, and the busy wheels Of
commerce were never buster No ma
ton at any time has had sucn reason to
rejoice over the large prosp 'rity to the
entire people as the United States to-day.
Will the Democratic party, whose repre- :
Sentatives are to assemble the 9th of
July in Chicago, dare repeat its platform
OF twenty years ago when assembled in
the same placer Was the war failurei
Has the currency proved failure? Has
there been any failure to pay the
honest debt of the Nation? As far as
law is concerned, has there been any
failure in reconstruction? And any and
every failure in the poorest and weakest
citizen to receive his individual rights
lays 1t the feet of the Democratic party.
1t the Democratic party of to-day could
sweep all the past of history out Of ex
istence and tart new without principle
it would be in better trim to win battle
in a contest with intelligent people.
How would it do to declare, "Whereas,
the Democratic party has always been a
failure, and every principle it ever advo
Gated has become obsolete by the advance
OF civilization and intelligence, therefore
resolved, we will wipe out all the past
and start new?" That would look hon
est at least, and even that would be a
large gain over present appearances =
