OF the newspapers seem to suppose.
He was when the Rebellion broke
out, a young and poor boy work
ing for his aged father on hill
farm in southern New York. He
did not wait for a company to be
raised near where he lived, but at
once laid down his hoe, went to
the city of New York, and enlisted
as a private in a company and
regiment of whom he had never
seen a man before. He went
directly with his regiment to the
front and there served as a private
soldier until the loss of his right
arm in the charge upon Fort
Wagner. No longer able to carry
"a musket, he was discharged from
the service. Since that time, and
wholly without aid from others,
he has acquired and reached the
fore front Of a profession in which
no laggard succeeds. His position
to-day; his standing in his pro-
fession, in his party and with
the people, is, as we have already
seen, one of which any honorable
man may be justly proud. He is
not only self made" but has
mad himself all that he is with
one arm. And his work comends
him to the confidence and favor OF
the people. Thus far 1888 seems
to be a year in which ex-soldiers,
now honored citizens of the
Republic, are called again to the
front They cannot ali be called to
official positions, but some of them
can and will be. None can be
found more worthy than the
modest private soldier whose cause
we here advocate. Let the
Republicans of the Ninth District
follow the noble example set by
our National and State Conven-
tons, and thus assure to themselves
an easy victory all along the line.
