Lincoln and Stanton.

The apologists for the late Edwin
NJ. Stanton have adopted an ingenious
but very unfair method of conducting
the dispute which has recently arisen
concerning him. They invariably link
his name with that of Lincoln and as
sumo that every aspersion cast on the
late Secretary of War implies censue
of the lamented President. This is an
impudent assumption that the friends
of Lincoln ought to resent None of
the other members of the great War
Cabinet ever attempted to shield them.

and there is no evidence that Stanton
more than the others is entitled to the
protection which he reverend name

There is probably no intelligent man
in the country whose mind is clouded
by the shadow of a suspicion against
the integrity or the patriotism OF Lin

no one ever attributed them to other

was without malice, broad minded, free
from prejudices, and his personal anti
pathies and antagonisms were eXclud.
ed from the consideration of every
public question. If Mr.. Lincoln had
any enmities they were set aside when
matters of public Importance were con
sidered, and the character of a mar
with whom he didn't agree was as safe
in his hands as if they were fondly
attached to each other.
The Secretary of War was of anothe
and inferior type, Consumed with tn,

Don't Jump Out.
WHAT ONE SHOULD DO IN THE CASE OF A
RUNAWAY ACCIDENT

Sergeant England, of the New
York Central Park police, who has
served in the park some twelve or thlr-
teen years and has seen great num-
ber of accidents, said to reporter:
'rhe occupants of a wagon in run
away accident should cling to it to the
last. 1t is nonsense to jump. Look
ing for soft spots to light upon is all
ioolishness. There are no soft spots
at such time The park roads are
too smooth to get a foothold upon from

harm is done, and even if collision
should occur there is less danger of a
fatal result from that than from jump
ing out. 1t is really surprising how
people will go unharmed through col

The Waltman Case,
DOUBTS OF HIS GUILT--now TO MAKE
THEM BENEFICIAL.

We are in receipt of two communi.
cations for publication, one from
Bloomsbury, the other from Benton,
relating to the arson case from the
latter town, for which Isaac Waltman
was arrested, convicted and sentenced
to the Eastern penitentiary. We de.
cline to give them space in our col
umns, for the reason that the writer's
fail to furnish any new testimony, but
each advances theory of Waltman's
innocence from their own view of the
case. Notwithstanding the fact that
the case was very peculiar one in
many respects, his conviction having
been brought by purely circumstantial
evidence, and that, tIo, In the entire
absence of any known motive for the
commission of the crime, if he is guilty
which the court and jury says he is
he has only gotten his just deserts.
We care not who the man may be-
whether relative, friend or stranger 10
us-if he violates the law of the land
he deserves to be punished for it.
Waltman severed his connection
with this Office on the 20th of Decem-
Der last, but while he was in our en-
ploy we found him a man of strict
honesty, integrity and sobrlety. We
have known him for thirty-five years,
and in all that time never heard aught
against him, and we are inclined, there
| fore, to believe him innocent of the
crime for which he is now suffering.
If he did commit the offense we are
unable to divine his motive. The pro-
perty is owned by j. A. Buckwalter,
of Montgomery county, who is an en-
tire stranger to Waltman. The deed
was executed before Esquire w. G.
Miller, of this place, in May, 1SS5,and
delivered to the purchaser. We fail
to learn that Waltma ncould have been
benefited by the destruction of the
property in any manner whatever, but
in the absence of any insurance upon
it. its destruction would not only have
entailed a heavy loss upon the present
owner, but many other buildings
around it would also have been con-
sumed. For the benefit of those who
are moving in Watman's behalf we
have to say that mere newspaper dis
cussion or speculation on his case has
no merits; if there is any new evidence
or light TO be thrown on the matter,
the proper place to use it is before the
pardon board, which now alone has the
power to act in the premises.-Mitton

Statistics of Marriages.

A subject that never loses in popular
interest is marrying and giving in mar
riage, as is well evidenced by the in
tense curiosity that was displayed over
the recent nuptials of President Cleye-
land. Professor Richmond Mayo
Smith says that the marriage rate for
the different countries of Europe is
shown in the following Servia, ll.3 /;
Hungary, 1913 Germany, G.5 ; Sax
ony, 9.3 Wurtemburg, 9,2 Bavaria,
92 Prussia, SO Austria, 81 Eng
land and Wales, s4 /; France, s (;
Switzerland, &c, Italy, 7,6 Belgium,
rs Spain, IA Scotland, 7,2; Nor
way, 7 Sweden, &C ireland, 81. In
looking over the statistics Of the age
Of the bridegrooms, it was found that
in Sweden 35. s per cent. marry be-
tween the ages of 25 and 80 years. In
Russia the remarkable figures that 63.3
per cent. of the matrimonial ventures
made under the age of 20 years are
given. AS to the age of brides 27.S
per cent marry under 20 years, in
Russia, while in Bavaria 1877 per cent
marry between 20 and 25. These fig
ures throw some needed light on al
important social institution.

A BALLAD.

AS went down my garden,
Before the dew was dry,
Along the road to Hawarden,
A lovely lass came by.
Her cheek was rosy, rosy
Blue, blue her eye,
offered her posy,
And she did not deny.
Pansy, pansy--
yellow, white and blue,
She has won my fancy,
Far away with you.
so much mused about her,
could not sleep o'night,
And one month without her
Left me weak and white
Till lily-o-the-valley
Her leaves did decline,
And forth must sally
TO seek my Valentine.
Pansy, pansy--
Yellow, white ard blue,
She has won my fancy,
Far away with you.
At long last found her
Alone in wood
With linnets warbllng round her,
Would do your heart good.
Her cheek no more was rosy
With woe her eyes were wet,
And to her lips posy
OF faded flowers was set
Pansy, pansy-
Yellow, white and blue,
Have | won her fancy,
She so favors you?
Toward her hasted
And told my loving tale.
She saw my form was wasted,
She saw my cheek was pale;
And blushing rosy, rosy,
She sighed in my ear,
''The day took your posy
You took my heart's-ease, dear"
Pansy, pansy,
Wherever go,
You shall be my fancy
OF all the flowers that blow.
