The cheapest and most convenient of all artif-
cial methods of transportation yet devised, is by
lines OF wrought iron pipe, supplied, when nee

OHIO'S ENOCH ARDEN,

A Soldier in the War, Reported Dead,
Ferbore to Disturb the N.w Order.
tindlay (Ohio) special: DR.. D. May, who
died in this city this morning, was a man
who had a more remarkable experience
than Tennyson's Enoch Arden. He was q
practicing physician in Fairfield county,
this State, prior to the war of the rebellion,
and bad a wife and two children, whom he
left behind him when, in 1861, he went to
join the Union army. He was with Rose
Grams at Stone River, and on the second
day Of the engagement was taken prisoner
sent to Andersonville. Not many
months afterward the report came to his
wife and children that he was dead and

MOURNED HIM ACCORDINGLY

for a year or more, when his wife married
again. In the meantime DR.. May was ex-
changed, and, the war being over, came
North to join his family. At Columbus he
accidentally heard for the first time that
he had long been considered dead, and
that his wife was again married and living
happily with her second husband, who was
also taking excellent care of the children OF
the first marriage. Sitting the feelings of
husband and father he determined that he
would not disturb the existing relation of
things. He purchased a ticket for the far
West, and for fifteen years

among the wild scenes Of the border, where
he remained until his wife died in blissful
ignorance OF the fact that her first husband
WAS yet among the living. Upon the death
vi his wife he returned to Ohio and made
himself known to his children, one of whom,
a daughter, o living neal Tiffin, has been
at his bedside ever since his serious illness
began, and ministered to him until the
hour of death. DR.. May was a resident of
this city for many years, and was well
known all over Ohio as a vender of Indian
remedies for human ills. He was a gentle
a in all his relations, and his death is
mourned by many friends.

GENERAL HARRISON AT HOME.
Congratulatory Letters from Friends and Wis.,
it0rs from Chicago and Other Cities.

General Harrison spent nearly the entire day
in his library yesterday, debating replies to
letters that have come to him in great numbers.
HIS son, Russell, is now his secretary, acting in
place OF his partner, w. 81. Il. Miller,
whose law business demands his whole
attention. Five hundred letters still IN
opened lay on the Generals desk last hight.
Many or these were congratulatory messages
from Southern Democrats, who gracefully ac-
knowledged the peoples verdict, while confess
ing their disappointment. Some even expressed
belief that the tendency of the result will be
to beneht the South. Among others received
was tho following from Hon. Will Cumback:
ERIE, Pa. Nov. 10. 1888

Dakota and be seated. Stand up every colored ct
zen, and be counted. Oil the American loom and
let her go Gallager." England hands off.

The Indiana FIoater.

Special in Philadelphia Press.
Probably the oldest animal in American
fined, a 'foater' is a purchasabls voter, but he
has his own code of honor. and it is as strange
a code as ever grew out of perverted moral
sense. The bad political methods of the past
have forced both party organizations TO rocog-
nize the existence of the ''hoafer" and to pro-
vide for him. The ''foater," however, is always
a party man, and he does not consider it wrong
to take money for his vote from his own party.
What is there in it this Year, is the question
re asks. Assuming hat he is told it is worth
81 for him TO vote t1s ticket Of his own party,
be will at once proceed to find out how much
the other side is paying its mercenaries. If
their price is SO, he at once demands it from his
party and if the price has already been IBID
up be is paid the required sum. The "hoater"
would consider it wicked to take this amount
for voting the ticket OF the other party, but he
considers it perfectly proper to receive some
thing from his own side and believes it his duty
to get all he
So prevalent is this strange code Of political
ethics that it is no longer looked upon as at all
remarkable BIZ the uptutored Hoosier. Just
before the election local newspaper grayely
published the statement that the trustees of .
colored church in a village not far from
indianapolis had been offered $500 by the Demo
Gratis if they would vote the congregation
solidly for the Democratic ticket. There was a
mortgage of just $500 on the church property
which the congregation was anxious TO pay;
hence the offer According to the newspaper.
the trustees held meeting and seriously dis
cussed in public this unique method of lifting
the church debt. No action was taken, but it is
probable that the Republicans were apprized Of
this opportunity Cor furthering the spread of
the gospel among drsky citizens. There are
very few colored Democrats in Indiana, and the
church trustees would doubtless consider it
wicked to accept $500 from that party, provided
they could get it from the Republicans. More
over. it is not likely that they could deliver the
goods-

it would have been considered very outre in
those days for woman to march in q parade,

ence OF thought. Grandma Huffnagle
always dressed herself in holiday attire;
decor ied each window Of her house with red.

each pane OF glass, when windows boasted Of
six or eight panes to the sash; waved the Amer
lean flag from every point of vantage about
the house, and shouted her triumph in her
heart. if she couldn't from the housetop.
She was schoolmate and lifelong friend Of
Allen G.. Thurmans, but one can fancy her dis
gust and the elevation of her nasal organ at his
political party substituting his st-handker-
chief for the American flag Mr.. Hamilton hon.
ored his erandmother's memory, and did his
own rejoicing in the old-fashioned way, with
red, white and blue papers, lighted candles and
flags, the only innovation being quantity Of
Japanese lanterns.

gossip relative to what will probably be done
in giving them local political advantage. Some
OF this talk is extravaganza, but it expresses. no

like to see accomplished. When asked yester-
day il he intended to call the General Assembly

HOW ECLECTIC POLITICS WORKS.
A Brief Review of the Rise and Fall of the
Mugwump.

Muewump.
Philadelphia Press.
The mugwump plan Of sharing 10 none of the
work and none Of the responsibility for party
management, and then deciding after the NOM
nations are made by both parties which candi-
dates to support, is one which commends itself
to . certain and, we are glad 10 say, small class
of educated men. 1t saves trouble before cleo
ton day, and it gives q comfortable sense of su-
periority at tho ballot-box. 1t enables man to
condemn both parties and admire himself. By
following it the duties OF citizenship lodged
IS far a. party management ID concerned, and
all its privileges are retained as far as action at
the polls is concerned.
This plan has been carried further in New
York by the class which talks most about the
depravty OF politicians and does least to i'm
prove politics than anywhere else. The condi-
dtioLs Of that State favor such action. A State
which rocks like q balanced stone on . change of
from 500 to 5000 votes 10 poll of million and
quarter offers unrivaled advantages to the
man who believes that the continent tips when
he moves inland. Great cities. the beginnings OF
leisure class, and powerful newspapers which
practice with great skill the eclectic poll
tics which selects for it's support the losing man
have helped the movement. For nine years
eclectic politics has been the mugwump dream
in New York State.
What is the resultl In the election Tuesday
the New York mugwump, who has left the Re-
publican party without entering the Democratic
party, picked three candidates for his support.
He determined, with great unarimity and en-
thusiasm and very considerable pains and print
ing, TO vote for Cleveland. the Democratic candi-
date for president; Miller. the Republican
candidate for Governor. and Hewitt the
partisan candidate for Mayor All three are
beaten Each runs behind the strength he was
expected to have. Cleveland was weaker than
Hill. Miller was weaker than Harrison and
Hewitt received less than the usual non partisan
vote in New York city. Eclectic politics has
proved eclectic political folly. This body of in
teiligent, able and energetic voters, who inside
OF one party or the other might have affected its
policy. has simply had no share in tho game at
all. 1t has not even scored 1t is. not in the
running 1t might as well have stayed at home.
Success is not the only criterion of political
action But success is pretty important test
OF policy and method Of political action. IL
