THE FORD CASE.

The celebrated case is now being
discussed all over the State, in con.
nection with the fact of a numer.
ously signed petition, being ready
to present to the Board of Pardons,
which meets Nov. 9Th, next Mon.
day, The sentiment is general
that the sentence of Pat Ford and
John Murphy should be committed,
and the petition which will be pre-.
scented TO the Board asks for com.
mutation of sentence.
When the Ford case first became
case, the 6rst paper in the State,
80 far as is known, to object to the
way in which the case was being
conducted, and prejudged by the
, city press, was the MADISON TIMES
There was general howl agains
he Fords, and there seemed to b,
a general desire for vengeance, re
gardless of the evidence. Tn,
TINES called attention to the fac
that the evidence was not sufficien
10 convict, and that both trial
were unjust, and that justice wa
made secondary issue, in tn
matter. Other papers took til
same view of the matter, and no,
very few papers hold any othe
view.
There was a clear wrong done i
this case. The public sentimer
of New Orleans was against tn
Fords, and the jury responded t
that sentiment in both trials, an
not to the evidence presented b
the State, which failed to make OF
a case. 1t is clearly the duty {
the Board of Pardons to recommen
clemency on the part of the Gov
ernor, and if they fail to do SO, tn
Governor should act anyhow.

THE n. Y. WORLD
On the New York Election.

What does the Democratic vic
tory mean? 1t means first OF all
that the Democrats of New York
are once more united. Thousands
of Democrats who last year were
repealed by doubts of Mr.. Cleve-
lands Democracy and Republican
journals that supported him, have
all returned to the fold. 1t means
too that they have returned to the
party almost entirely for the very
reasons that Gov. Hill was known
to be true, genuine old-fashioned
Democrat, who had the opposition
of the mugwumps and did not en-
ioy the favor of Mr.. Cleveland. 1t
means an expression OF party be-
lief that Mr.. Cleveland probably
means well, and that the mistakes
he has made are due to inexperi-
ence, an excessive self-reliance,
gross batteries and hero worship OF
mugwump journals and their false
| light and leading. 1t means above
ali that the fact that Gov. Hill was
| a representative of the real Democ'
racy, and not of sham mugwumI
Democracy secured his election BY
a majority probably fifteen OF
twenty times greater than the State
gave Cleveland last year. This II
the lesson of the election. Thu
hope of the election is that thu
lesson will be understood and act
ed ON at Washington, Farewell
Mugwumps, farewell.

DON'T JIBE.

There used to be once, once upon
q time, a little anecdotc related 10
the effect that the reason why inc
Y. s. &P. L. r., was from four to
six months behind, in paying OH
their employees, was because each
road of the Q. e. c. system, had 10
stand on its own bottom, or in other
words, each road must pay its own
way: that the V. S. a. F., was not
paying expenses, and that in con.
sequence, its current debts could
not be paid as they became due;
that the earnings Of other roads OF
the same system, could not be
taken to pay the Indebtedness OF
the V. S. &. P, or any other IL
debtedness, except their own.
No one of any intelligence be-
lieyed such o childish story, but
that was about all the explanation
TO be obtained, and it was made te
do duty, in lieu of anything better
The absurdity of the anecdote Is a
once apparent when it is given
moments thought, for if the V. 5
& P. was not paying expenses
would get farther and farther be
hind all the time, and eventual.
accumulate such a debt as it woul'
be impossible ever to pay, whel
as matter of fact, it stuck just a
the same old thing and neithe
gained nor lost.
A few days ago the V. & NJ. roa
: of the @. & c., system was put i
the charge of a receiver, the re
ceiver being Mr.. Frank S. BOND
: President of the system, who, i
explaining the reasons for this az
ton said: when he took charge
the system-he found the roa
heavy in debt Che probably sal
"heavily in debt" but he is quo
cd as saying heavy. bandits gener'
d condition very bad. 1t was sadl
in need of steel rail to replace tt
old iron ones then in use, and abo'
thirty miles were purchased, at
expense of sixty thousand dollar
g Then the building of the inclil

n this point, (vicksburg) was anot
: er expense to be incurred, al
lastly tho change of guage, add
, to the heavy debt already piled u
a. While all this was being done, t
" receipts of the road grew less, al
10 the money was advanced by t
associated roads.
Each road, then, did not sta
~ on its own bottom by a good de-
" and the reason of the V. S. &.
being behind was not because
in was not paying expenses. 1

last twelve months has been some
thing remarkable or at least has
been the subject of considerable
remark. The employees at Delta
have had more to do than men
ought to have, and the road has
been getting more business than it
could handle properly. Men with
experience in railroad affairs have
said that this i'll used road has been
the only road of the system that
has made any money for the con-
Germ for some time past. and that
the earnings of this road have gone
to pay the deficiencies of other
roads of the system. Therefore il
is that the two statements don't
jibe, and the employees of the v
S. & P. should be paid up in full
the next pay day.

THE FARMERS DREAM.

The farmer tips back in the old oaken chair,
His hand on his head and his feet on the floor;
And he dreams Of the days when his prospects
And he worked all the day in grocery store
How he measured out sugar for Mary and Rese,
And liberties never once took with the till;
When he wore patent-leathers that ruined his
toes.
When he called on Jensima, just over the hill
He thinks of the days when they roamed through
the gale
And heard the shrill notes ofthe gay whippoor
will;
When they dreamed of neat little cot in tie
shade
OF a button-ban hanging just over the rill.
He looks at these pictures though spectaeles
bent,
And Jemima he sees in vision of bliss
Just the same as she looked in the days when he
leant
The wicket across for the tra-Ia. la kiss
He thinks of the years that ess~worked over
allied
With shovel, rake, harrow, ploR, bean pole, and
He remembers the night te propose that he
called,
And oh how he wished shsa=oaly,said NO"
For then might his life be of i6 szsss full. s-.-
He could loaf through the daytime sunshiny AID
bright,
And not have to larrup an old brindle bull
And jerk up the turnips from morning till
night.
But what is the use of his ''bah!'' and his 'pis ~
And what is the use of his sadness and woe,
And what is the use of the empty old wish
That he'd courted girl who could only say
''No?"

The Great Butterfly Collector.

Baltimore Sun: An interesting ac,
count is given at John Hopkins Uni
versity Of Herman Strecker, naturalist,
of Reading, Pa. He is stone cutter,
day laborer, but knowE all over the
world as an authority on butterflies
His scientific labors, it is said, are
done at night after his days work is
over, and on Sundays. He makes his
own drawings on stone, writes his
own descriptive matter, sets the type
and does the printing himself. He
has the largest collection of butterflies
in the world. Two years ago he pub
lshed d catalogue of North American
species of butterflies which is the
nost complete ever issued, since it
contains all the synonyms. In this
publication he gives long lists of
names of foreign countries where he
has collectors v working for him. He
has collectors in every known island.
In his collections are hundreds of
specimens which no other museum
possesses

years old, and they were just as intel
ligent and smart, as I could have
wished. But, do you know, the first
Sunday that | took that class | was
amused OF course, I wanted TO know
their names. where they lived, and IN
fact who they were Questioning
them in turn I found their ans wers
quite satisfactory, until / came to a
bright little fellow about ten years
old. He told me his name and where
he lived, but when / asked him his
fathers business he did not reply at
once. / reassured him with my
brightest smile, but felt dubious when
he said he guessed he couldn't tell me
that Ny curiosity was now aroused.
and I at once made up my mind TO
know an about it. Thinking OF the
horrible dynamiters and burglars and
all those awful men we were constant
ly hearing about. it was with some
trep;dation that insisted on his tell
ing me- His reply reassured me TO q
greater or less extent. He said: Ny
