WEBSTER SAID 1T.

One of the Speeches of the Immortal
Daniel Credited to an Oregon
Yankee.
Youths Companion.
The Yankee is sometimes amusing when
he aims to be highly eloquent and patriotic.
An office seeker who wished to impress his
constituents pleasantly, stopped at a town in
Oregon near where there is quite large
cataract.
'.Gentlemen," said the orator, ST have seen
some falls winch must be at least sixty feet
high. Gentlemen, Rome had her Caesar, her
Scipio, her Brutus, but R-R-Rome in her
proudest day had never a waterfall sixty feet
high! Gentlemen, Greece had her Pericles.
her Demosthenes and her Socrates, but
Greece never had a waterfall sixty feet high
in June freshet! I repeat it, gentlemen,
such fall will bring in wealth, an wealth
brings prosperity, an prosperity brings hap
piness!
A correspondent calls our attention to the
fact that substantially the same remarks
were made by Daniel Webster at Rochester,
n. Y. many years ago. MI. Webster said:
"Gentlemen: I saw your falls, which, ]
am told, are $50 feet high. That is a very
interesting fact, gentlemen. Rome had her
Caesar, her ScipiO, her Brutus; but Rome, in
her proudest days, never had waterfall 100
feet hight Gentlemen, Greece had her Peri
cles her DemOstheues and her Socrates; but
Greece, in her palmiest days, never had g
waterfall $50 feet high! Men of Rochester
go on. No people ever lost their liberty who
| had waterfall $50 feet high.

Herbert,s show Slim.

To the Editor of the Globe.
notice by yesterdays GLOBE that B. B.
Herbert contemplates contesting the action
of the Republican convention, in the election
of delegates to the district convention. For
the benefit of our farmers who were dele
gates, wish to state some facts. In the first
place, the delegation from this county is in
structed to vote for A. H. Reed first, last and
all the time, consequently what good will it
do Herbert to contest the matter? A major
ity of the delegates were clearly in favor of
Reed. The vote to instruct was carried unan-
imously. Many of the delegates who voted
the Herbert ticket, Influenced by NJ. o.
Hall, who had no right to work among the
delegates. thought they were voting for Reed
men. In fact, when John Kohr declared that
his list of delegates were for Reed delegate
arose and stated that the other ticket was for
Reed, but l.. S. Satterlee, delegate on the
Herbert ticket, arose and said that he did not
wish to be misunderstood by the convention,
that he was Herbert man, and if chosen by
the convention should vote for Herbert. This
undeceived everybody and uncovered a plot
to run the convention contrary to the voice
of the majority. The vote by ballot was re-
considered. \ farmer delegate read to NJ o.
Hall the riot act, and w. B. Kitchel, ]. K.
Stone, John Kohr and A. H. Figen were
elected by reclamation, the vote being unan-
imous. Capt. Reed was present at the con-
vention, it is true, but did not hold any secret
caucus in a lawyers Office, as did Herbert s
man. He did not work among the delegates
during the convention, and refused to make

lovely candidate whom the people did not
want, and whom they will not have. When
this fact becomes generally known, it VIII
be in order for the

lovely candidate whom the people did not
want, and whom they will not have. when
this fact becomes generally known, IL Will
be in order for the
PARTISAN EDITORS
of the t. g. school, to unite in villifying Mr..
White for his alleged recalcitrancy. When
an honorable gentleman, like MI. White, Is
robbed of his position, and politically as
Sassinated, it is not historically true that the
custom has been to seek with Christ
ian meekness the parties guilty
OF the deep damnation of
his taking off, in order to assure them that
the spirit of fraternity is so great and low
ing that il must needs assist in tearing
open afreSh the wounds in order
TO gl0at over them as they bleed.
If the old organization which in
tested the Mississippi valley prior to
1860, known as The Bandits of the
PrairieS. could have been in the kaSSon
convention, they would not have been
guilty of such chcanery and
ATROCIoUS THUG-LINE sLUGGING,
in political or any other sense. Those
bandits stole many purse, and sent many
a soul unShriven into the Land o the Leal.
Many a citizen had cause to bewail the loss
Of fortune and friends, but none OF them
were so outraged as was Milo White.
He might well say: who steals my purse
steals trash. Twas mine. TITS his; and
has been the slave of thousands. But, hewhO
filcheS from me my good name, and shuts
the gates of honor on me, robS me OF that
which not enriches him, and makes me
poor, indeed" They who shut the
gates of honor on him, will find
that Milo White will let them know that
they have robbed him of that (which not
enricheS them" 1t is the sheereSt impu-
dence. 1t is adding insult to injury to ask
and demand of Mr.. White that he stand as
a sponsor for the devilment and bedevil-
ment of which he now does suffer.

information as to the condition of certain
bills in committee; and what other members
were opposing the bills, and how much it
would probably cost to buy them off. 1t
may be that these are unfounded rumors,
