The testimony of the husband was
calculated to be still more damaging
to the character of his wife. But his
statements were unsupported by cor
roborative testimony and it also fell
short of its mark.
Finally, before the decision in the
case was rendered Mrs. Burton was
brought a helpless invalid to New
York city suffering from tumor of
the liver brought on, as her physicians
declared, by the constant mental de-
preston and excitement under which
she labored for so many years. She
died few days after.
When her body arrived at Burling-
ton it was to find her husband INSTALL
ed in the mansion from which he had
been so long excluded by Il decree OF
the supreme court. But one carriage
it is said, was furnished at the funeral,
but the citizens, as if to rebnke this
neglect, turned out en- masse and no
funeral that ever took place in Bur-
lington was more largely attended.

AS we were crossing the bridge a lank

date last night gave the snap away
by admitting that the secret trio had con-

number Of Democratic tickets printed with
Gilfllan's name substituted for that OF
Edmund Rice, and with one of the initials
of A. A. Ames altered or omitted. An
other lot Of tickets is to be printed bearing
the names of all the Republican candidates,
except one or two Objectionable local can

sake of catching voters that for
political or personal reasons are opposed to
them. This method, however, is not monop-
olized by the three gentlemen mentioned.
1t is well known that many Republican
candidates are having tickets printed lndl-

personal advantage. Confidential friends
are to be entrusted to get these tickets to
the polls and dispense them.

From a CslOred Voter.

To my Fellow Colored Citizens:
The Republican party claims to have
freed us from slavery. If they did, it has
also entrapped US into political slavery
Any eXpedient which it is possible to resort
to is attempted to keep us in subServience,
and make the ''niggerS," as the
Republicans call us after cleo
ton. mere voting cattle. simply political
machinery But to-day the eyes of cOlored
men are opened and they are. or ought to
be, Democrats. They see that the Repub-
licans, with all their boaStful record. are
far from being the grand old party of free
dom. for the moment we signify desire to
vote fer another ticket than theirs they are
at us with bulldoZing and threats. Now
there is not a single Intelligent colored man
but what regards the election Of Grover
Cleveland to the presidency as a happy
event And why? Because it afforded
grand opportunity to the Demo
cratic party to encourage consistent
and just policy toward the colored
man, which has evidently been taken
advantage of. for there never was more
impartial administration recorded in the
annals of American history than that of
President Cleveland, regardless of nation
ality, j. A. PORTER,

The voters of Ramsey county are prob
ably aware that the usual tactics to secure

Through the Taxpayers Union.

Through the Taxpayers Union.
The Taxpayers association, or at any rate
that portion of it which is comprised in its
secretary. Mr.. W. T. Mason. is sending out
large quantities of ballots for use at the
election tomorrow. Accompanying each
is the circular of the association, which re-
minds the members that the association is
pledged to support the ticket at the polls.
1T is said that about twenty-five thousand
of these have been sent out. When the
ballots for ticket to be supported were
counted up the other night, the secretary
said there were 41G of them. Who sent
them in the Lord only knows, and to tell
who filled out the blanks would bother a
man who IS an expert at solving Chinese
puzzles. A GLOBE reporter has been inveS-
figating the matter. and has the name
of one who admitted that he collected.
