A Decision that Doesn't Count.

Special 10 the GloDe.
DEs MONIES. To-, Dec. 20.-The su-
preme court to-day rendered decision
in the protracted A. o. U. w. contro-
yersy. This is reaffirmation of the
one made some years since against
those adhering to the national body.
The court holds that the A. o. q. w. is
n life and health insurance company,
and as such, under the law under which
the controversy arose could not, as
national organization, do business in
Iowa without complying with the in
surance laws. The decision is quite
sweeping, and would effect not only the
Workmen, but the Knights of Honor,
the Modern Woodmen, the Northwest
ern Legion of Honor and other organ
izations, and also the Odd Fellows,
Knights of Pythias and all other insti-
tutiOns which have provisions similar to
that of the A. o. q. w. concerning sick
benefits. Fortunately the law has been
changed since this controversy arose,
and the Workmen and all other frater-
mites are exempted from complying
with the insurance laws.

lady, left Rice's Point in skiff for this

that time nothing had been heard of
either until yesterday. Two men were
skating across the bay. when they dis
covered the body of man in the ice.
They reported the find to the chief OF
police, who, with assistants, extracted
the body from the ice, and placed it in
the hands of the coroner. His hand
was tattooed with the initials III. a.,
which, together with other evidence
taken from the pockets, identified him
as the missing Herbert Anderson. Not
the slightest trace has been found of
the lady who accompanied the unfor-
tunate man, and there is no doubt that
she met a like fate.

The Hot Campaign Of ls4o.

To the Editor of the Press:
| note with pleasure the "reminiscences in
the political campaign of forty-eight years
ago. The exciting scenes of those months
come vividly before my mind as | read the
name of the noble standard bearer of our
grand old party, Benjamin Harrison. When
his grandfather, William Henry Harrison
was brought forward as the nominee of the
old Whig party, / had scarcely left my
teens, but had begun to understand what was
going on; and sought to know the difference
between Whig and a Loco Foco, as they
were called.
In my native village the number of popula-
tisn never exceeded five hundred souls, but
what the citizens lacked in numbers they
supplied in intelligence and enterprise. Out
of the eighty odd voters less than half dozen
cast the Democratic ticket, and so it has con-
tinued during the existence OF the Republi-
can party. Very many times the town clerk s
returns have shown only one Democratic
vote deposited in the ballot box.
In the campaign of "Tippecanoe and Tyler
too" the boys Of our school joined the vete-
rams in shouting and singing the songs which
have been reproduced of late and published
in the PRESS. l seem so hear them ringing
out on the clear. night air, as In
Solomon M. Foster was at that time a
contractor for conveying the U. ). mails
from this little village to Cherryteld, in
Washington county. he fitted out a hand
some new post coach, and decorated it with
a log cabin and canoe, in which was barrel
of hard cider. The American flag, studded
with thirty stars. fioated proudly from its
topmost deck. Every inch of space, both in
side and out, was occupied by enthusiastic
followers of the "farmer of North Bend"
Eight handsome, snow white horses drew
the coach with its jolly freight along the
road, and was greeted with hearty cheers
from Wings in every village and town
through which they passed. The occasion
of this grand demonstration was the meeting
of the Washington county convention at
Cherryfield.
Although but a boy 1 was allowed the
privilege to ride on the coach provided /
could "hold on" did hold on, and took in
the whole show.
One little incident was connected with
that affair which will never be forgotten by
me and many others of that day. The eight
splendid horses made grand display on the
streets and created envy in the breasts of
the loco's, who tried hard to eclipse it, but
failed, and they thought, but said not pride
must have fall" 1t was at late hour of
night when the members of the convention
returned to rest, and then the miscreants
improved the opportunity to perform their
nefarious work, as was shown when the
horses were brought out in the
morning for making up the team. Each
horses tail had been clipped close to the
bone. But in November the loco party was
clipped of its power and honors, as Cleve-
land and his supporters will be in November
next. G. III. X.

He Buried the Dog.

Some time last week gentleman living on
Walnut street, Philadelphia. lost valuable
setter dog. The dog had been sick some
time and finally died. When the owner was
informed of his bereavement he engaged the
services Of a venerable colored gentleman,
who did odd jobs about the neighborhood, to
officiate as undertaken for his dead favorite.
The virtnous Ethiopian agreed to see that
the obseduies were suitably attended to for
the moderate sum of $1.50, and upon receiy-
ing his money departed, bearing the remains
of the dead setter in bag over his shoulder.
In the evening he returned, filled with the
satisfaction that one generally experiences
after the performance of a noble deed. His
master called him to the library, and the fol-
lowing conversation took place:
We'll. Sam. did you bury the dog?"
Yes, sab. He am buried fur fact
Where did you bury him?"
well, sab, rode down in the car to the
South street wharf, and then met little
boy. Sonny says /, will yer hold dis bag
fur five cents till come backP And gave
de boy de bag and took de next car fur
home, Oh, yes, de dawg am buried fur sure.
