The Nenia Gazette gives two instances
of fOOliShneSs and careleSsneSs on the part
of republicans that proved just sufficient to
beat Mr. Little:
Some enthusiastic republican in Beaver
creek township, pinned John Little's pic
ture to his ticket when he voted. The
judges threw the ticket out, and thus one
vote was lost. In the Fourth ward Xenia,
two republican tickets were sticking to-
gether and they were not counted; again
in the Sixth ward some one carelessly
folded two republican tickets together, and
the judges threw them out. Thus we have
three votes for Little that were never
credited to his account-just enough to
have elected him. This is one of the things
that defeated Mr.. Little.

Ground has already been broken on the

work. Thirty-three acres in the heart of
residential LondOn-in the West End-have
been devoted TO the purposes of the exposi
ton, at very little cost 20 the managers, a.
the ground is set apart for occupation by a
great union railway passenger station, by
the seven railway companies which now
own II in common. The plot is generally

by the railway stations at Earl's Court

England, Scotland OF Wales may be set down
at the exposition building without change of
cars, as were visitors 10 the great centen-
niaI, at Philadelphia.
The building, which is to be constructed
of iron and glass, will be 2iO feet broad and
1860 feet long. 1t will be divided into
avenues, running side by side, the extreme
length Of the building. and they will be
named, respectively: Cleveland, Washing
ton, Lincoln, Grant, Franklin, Fulton and
Morse, and there will be cross streets. dis
tinguished by numerals.
There will be an annex to the exhibition
which will be distinctiyey American and
aboriginal. This will consist.of wild
west" show of Indians and COWBOYS. A
grove of the largest trees obtainable will be
planted, in which the Indians will live in
their tepees, and the cowboys will be lodged
in cabins. Already there is great interest
in the show, for there is not paper in the
metropolis which has not published at least
a column concerning it, and Henry Irving's
description of it has gone the rounds of the
provincial journals.
Space to exhibitors is to be allotted this
month (NOyembeT) only in the city of Phil
adelphia. The London offices are at :
Poultry, near the Bank of England, Royal
Exchange and Mansion house.
This exhibition movement is of especial
interest 10 Springfield people and as the
price of the ocean passage next season will
probably be very low. we presume that
scores of our citizens will embrace this IA
Yorable opportunity TO go abroad.

English Newspapers Drawing Nor
ais from the Vote for George.
LONDON, Nov. 4.-The Pail Mall Ga
zette, speaking of the Mayoralty contest
in New York, says: "The vote for Henry
George is by far the most important po-
litical event of the day. 1t is a message
of hope from the New World to the Old,
unexpected light bursting forth in dark
place. Henry George is visionary
idealist and utterly impracticable, but
were he as mad as March hare all the
same, the votes for him mean a protest
against the rule Of Mammon, and will
give impetus to discussion of the ques-
tion of the condition of the people
throughout the world"
The Times, commenting on the election
In New York, says: ''It shows that the
opponents OF anarchy and spoliation have
not awakened an instant too soon to the
perils of the situation. Both the Demo-
cratic and Republican parties have suf-
fered, and the danger Is that these losses
will tempt machine men to traffic with the
promoters OF Georges candidature to
meet the demands of predatory Socialism.
Enterprising and industrious Americans
must look to it lest the appeals of dema-
gogues to the hali-instructed, restless
artisans in their great cities should inflict
damage upon the public credit and para
lyze the productive resources of the
country"
The Standard commenting on the unex-
peoted number of votes cast for Henry
George, asks New York what It Will do
with the fact tnat one voter in three backs
the opinion that the French revolution is
about to be repeated In America, and
SAYS: "Such polls look as If the great ma
tion was playing with edged tools with
recklessness dangerous tor others than
children"
The st. James Gazette says OF the vote
for George: at is a significant and un-
pleasant fact that in the great American
city Of New York such large proportion
of the workingmen are prepared 10 vote
for the gospel OF cOnfiscation. The cleo
tion should cause all respectable Amer-
cans TO forget the trumpery OF party fights
and political inditierentism, and face the
new danger that Is threatening the COM
mOnwealth."

Labor Made by Moi. Gentry the Cause
of the Trouble.
SEDALIA, Mo-, Nov. 4.-The bitter feel-
ing existing between the Gentry andl
Heard factions of the Democratic party
came very near resulting in bloodshed
yesterday afternoon.
Major William Gentry published a card
in one Of the local papers Tuesday I'M
which he repudiated Congressman Heard.
ana gave as reason that the latter had
pandered TO the Knights of Labor. Yes
terday morning Mr.. Heard published a
card denouncing the charge that he had
pandered to the knights of Labor as an
infamous tasehOod, and asserting that
his refusal to recommend MIR. Gentry'sl
son-in-law for Postmaster of Sedailia,l
was the true cause OF the difficulty be-
tween them.
ATUssLE.
Shortly after l O'clock r. W. Cloney.
son-in-law OF Mai. Gentry, stepped into
the Office OF Sicher's Hotel, where the
Congressman and his brother were
seated. Mr.. Heard spoke pleasantly to
Mr.. Cloney. who turned flercely upon him
and called him lying -. Mr.. Heard
was in the act OF arising TO his feet to re-
sent the insult, when Mr.. Honey seized
cane and dealt him severe blow ON the
side OF the head. The Congressman was
on his teet in an instant, wrested the cane
from his assailant and threw him on the
floor. Friends separated the c0mbatantS
and endeavored to effect conciliation.
A PISTOL DRAWN.
They afterwards came together in thu
hallway, when Mr.. Cloney made a notion
towards his hippocket, as If 10 draw re-
Volver. Mr.. Hesrd anticipated him and
called upon Mr.. Cloney to defend himself.
The latter threw up his hands, exclaim-
ing, 81 am unarmedV Mr.. Heard re-
marked to him that the matter might aa
well be settled now as at any time, and
advised Mr.. Clonev to arm himself. Tha
latter Loft the building and Mr.. Heard re4
turned to the office. Five minutes later
Mai. William Gentry entered the room,
and stepping up to MIR. Heard seized HIM
by the shoulder. Hewas greatly excited,
but before any blows We're exchanged Mr..
Heard broke away from him and drew his
revolver.
AN EXCITED CROWD.
The room was crowded with excited
men by this time, and the angry politi-
clans were separated before any injury
resulted TO either, Following 50 close
upon one OF the most bitter political COM
tests that has ever taken place in the dis
trIct, the hasty meeting between these
noted leaders OF the Democratic party
created great sensation. Mutual
friends have endeavored to effect recon-
ciliation between the chiet actors, but
nothing in that direction has been accom-
plished. Both men are impulsive by ma
ture and cordially hate each other, and ID
is feared that when they meet again the
trouble Will be renewed.
