Lacygue journal.


Congressman Funston is at home. A
review Of his work shows that he has
been a good servant Of the people Of
his dis trict as is possible for one to be
who works in a house under democrat
ic organization. He has done as much
for the people as was possible for him
to do. He has been busy, courteous to
all his constituents and best of all he
has kept himself above all suspicious OF
a questionable kind in legislation.
Very true he has not suited all in his
appointments. But who could? All
the appointments made by his recon-.
mendations have been worthy. efficient
persons who will perform their duties
properly, and this is what the govern
ment asks. We cannot allow ques-
lions of sympathy, friendship or senti.
men: to bias our judgments in making
recommendations for places where the
best interests of the many are concern
ed unless they also possess the other
important qualifications of fitness and
worthiness. We believe we have not
yet heard it charged to Mr.. Funston
that any of the places filled by his rec
cancellations, have been filled by in
competence, inefficiency or unworthi-
ness. We know that disappointed ones
there are many, and there would be
the same number if any other man
were congressman. We are satisfied
with Mr.. Funston's term Of service so
far, and now that the next Congress
will be Republican, under Republican
new committees, new
chairmanships, and new life. We may
expect to see the talents of our Con-
gresham recognized as they deserve
and himself making reputation to
commensurate with his already recog-
nized ability.

A MERITED REBUKE.

We would respectfully refer our
third party friends to the work they
have wrought with their own hands
in New York, says the Garrett Eagle.
Last November the Republicans enter.
ed the campaign in New York on a
straight temperance fight. Warner
Miller, the Republican candidate fol
governor, made this canvass largely Oh
the temperance issue, The party was
pledged to temperance legislation.
The third partyadherents were pleaded
with in vain to cast their votes fol
Miller, but this they refused to do, in
sisting that they would vote for moth
Ing short Of absolute prohibition, and
by casting their 10000 votes where
they accomplished nothing whatever
for the temperance cause, they gave
the State to the saloon keepers. Now
they are permitted to see the result
The Republicans, having obtained
control of the Legislature, proceed to
carry out their pledges to the people
by passing a number of stringent tenn.
perance bills, such as have met the ap.
prevail Of temperance people of New
York. But David B. Hill has vetoed
each and all Of them, and never before
in the history of New York have the
rum vendors had such complete con-
troll as now. This was the hardest
blow prohibition has received, and the
socalled prohibition party dealt the
blow. 1t was the influence of this thai
enabled the New Jersey people tc
repeal the only practical temperance
law that that State was ever given, land
that by Republicans. 1t was the vic.
tory Of the saloons in New York thai
strengthened the whiskey vote in
Massachusetts; largely that which
gave them the victory in Pennsylvania
last Tuesday. The nypocritical at.
tempt to lay the defeat of the amend.
ment in Pennsylvania and Massachus.
etts to the Republicans, is only q
shield to cover their deeper hypocracy
in New York. In these two States il
was not party issue, while in New
York it was fair and without any at
tempt to dodge. The third party was
given the chance, and led on by such
traitorous hypocrites as st. John, Judas
like, they betrayed the temperance
cause into the hands of the strongest
whiskey combination in the land
while they now stand aloof, and with
fingers dripping with blood of the
murdered cause, point to the Repub.
lican party and cry, "UNCLEAN UN.
CLEAN :"

made terrible fight, but there Is very
little said about their part of it, though
they are dying every day by the
hundreds there is nothing said, but
when an officer winks out the news
papers come out in mourning and it is
known all over the land that General
Soandso is dead. He was a lucky dog
to get commission. He rode horse
while the poor private waded through
The mud and carried his gun, his forty
rounds of ammunition, his knapsack
and his and the generals share of the
vermin, and n)w he is old and poor
and unless he can furnish a good hos
pital record he must hoe his own row.
Ii he Ia looked after at all it is to the
month. But the officers, they fare
better. OF course they deserved bet
ter treatment and must have it. Some
Of them, poor fellows got shot from q
rebel pistol, and some of them got
shot from another kind of a pistol. they
were colonies and generals, men of high
rank and it would be too bad to have
them neglected so we pension them.
But we have another class of the old
soldiers that are an independent class
of men. OF course they were of that
independent class during the war, and
this class of men took it upon them
selves to go into the army, stay in
their proper places, fight the battles
Of their country, restore the Union,
come home to their friends and fami.
lies and still be men, and it is this
class that gets no pension. They are
getting old an feeble, but they are yet
too much men to ask the government
to support them, and consequently
they get no pension. But let me say
it was this class of men that deserve
to be looked after in these, their de-
Ginning days. Don't understand me to
say that those that are now drawing
pensions are undeserving-I don't say
that for know that many of them are
worthy and should be supported, but
there is plenty of money In the vaults
of the treasury to pension them all,
and why not distribute it and let the
people have their own. This country
is swarming with tramps from the At
lantic to the Pacific, and from the cool
northern lakes Of Minnesota to the
warm waters Of the Southern shores
and all for the want of employment.
Plenty to do but nothing to pay with,
and why is this? Is it as it should be
in country like ours.
But this letter has grown too long
and 1 have not half finished. How.
ever 1 have noticed that 1 have stray
ed clear away from my subject and
will close by asking you to pardon my
rambling and 1 will promise to stick
closer to my text in my next commun-
icatioD. Il. F. KELLEY.

his country. And now 1 want to say
in honor to the memory of this old
hero, George B. Mcclellan, that had
General U. 8. Grant had the command
of that army at the time that Mac
commanded it, am satisfied that its
condition would have been far worse,
for at that time, Gen. Lee mustered
the best disciplined army that had
ever marched on American soil, and
these troops were also commanded by
the best general that ever commanded
An army on this side of the briney
deep.
What was the result when Grant
did meet Lee, after Lee had been con-
tending with Mcclellan, Burnside,
Hooker, Mead, Burnside and McClel.
Ian again until he had scarcely any
army left?
Still when General Grant is given
the command he meets Lee with a
handful Of starved, ragged troops and
is beaten back in every attempt to
take Richmond. He musters his
hosts again and again against the lit
tie remnants of Lees cripples and is as
often beaten back. At the Wilderness,
Sharpsburg, Cold Harbor, and in front
of Petersburg-in every effort he was
foiled until Lee sat down at Appomat-
tox and said "Here 1 am, come
and get me-" And still Grant
gets all the praise. Mcclellan Is a
traitor" Burnside, Hooker and
Meade are small potatoes, 1t is true
that Gen. Sherman marched his great
army clear across the continent or
nearly SO. But then he was ordered
and directed by Grant, therefore he
deserves but little credit for all that
he did.
And now my friends that the war
has long since passed away, let those
Eho still remain here to tell the tale,
cell it all. 1t is time all prejudices
had passed away, and let us tell it to
the young folks that there were two
sides to this difficulty, and that in
these battles we all fought. Grant
fought, Lee fought, their subordinate
Officers all fought, and the ptivates

KILLED BY AN ELECTRIC WIRE.
A Construction Superintendent Receives
Shock Of 1000 Volta.

Darwin A. Henry, superintendent OF con-
struction for the East River electric light COM
pany, was instantly killed yesterday at the
company's works, All East Gath street, New
York city, by receiving q shock from . current
said to be Of 900 volts. He was standing on a
ladder making some change in the wires Of the
switchboard, when in some way, it Is not posi-
lively known how, he came in contact with the
wires so that q current was completed through
his body from one hand to the other. The
right hand was burned to the bone; the left
hand was ouly scorched- Henry did not utter
a sound but fell from the ladder, and was ap-
parently dead before reaching the floor
Every means known to science was employed
in the attempt to restore life, but in vain.
Henry was twenty-eight years old and had been
in the employ of the company two years. He
was unmarried. His father, Charles B. Henry.
is superintendent of the Standard underground
cable company at Pittsburg. The officials and
employees Of the company are very reticent
about the matter. One Of the men employed
at the works said that Henry was at work on
the Incandescent light switchboard instead OF
on the alternating current board, but reporters
were rigldly excluded from the room where
the fatality occurred. 1t was said that the lad
der slipped, and that in trying to save himself
Henry threw out his hands and clutched some
wires near him, thus mourning the shock. An
inquest will be held

THE STRIKERS FIRM.
Some Slight Disaff ection, but the Mass
Refuse to Surrender.

While the great mass of London strikers
remain firm some Of the half starved have sur
rendered, and the dock companies express
of affairs. They have an increased number Of
men at work. composed of strikers who have
given up the fight and new men.
A deputation of ship owners, representing
eighty of the Leading houses in the Metropoli-
tan district, waited upon the officials of the
dock companies yesterday and urged upon
them to give the shippers power to make their
own arrangements with the men for the dis
charge and loading of vessels. Mr.. Norwood.
chairman of the joint docks committee, ap-
pealed to the shippers not to press their
request, as to grant it would be impossible
without conceding the points which the COM
panies are fighting against.
At meeting of wharfingers a resolution was
adopted advising the strikers to accept the
dock companies offer.
STRIKE OF TAILoRs.
To offset disaffections there have been large
additions to the force Of strikers. Three thou
sand tailors struck yesterday morning and pa
raded the streets. At Rochester there is much
excitement over the strike. Coal has advanced
two shiihngs. The railroads and river docks
are plcketed by strikers to prevent the importa-
ton OF new labor. Two of the largest Roch-
ester firms have expressed their willingness to
grant the required concessions, but the men re-
fuse TO return to work unless all the firms con-
cede their demands.
At Melbourne, Australia. universal sympathy
is expressed with the striking doekmen in Lon
don, and many subscriptions have been opened
for their relief.
At Blackburn 5000 looms have been stopped.
owing to the depression in trade.

SMALL BOYS FIND BIG MONEY.
Under the Lead Of q Mouse they Unearth
About Twenty Thousand Dollars.

Melbourne special of July 81 says: IA good
deal Of excitement arose ct Williamstown this
morning in consequence Of the recovery OF
nearly $4,000, portion Of the money stolen
from the royal mail steamer iberia, under the
platform Of the pier railway station. The dis
covery was made by two boys named George
Gordon and James Sweetenham, aged fourteen
and fifteen years respectively. As the boys
were walking past the platform they saw .
mouse come out Of q hole and dart under the
northern end OF the platform. Thinking to
have some sport the boys went on all fours
under the floor. Gordon inserted q stick and
commenced to work IL about. The action
produced . blinking sound which was
so unexpected that the lads scratched
away the earth and suddenly discovered
a mass Of soverelgns. After filling their pockets
they covered up the place and went home.
Gordon found that he had 118 sovereigns and
his companion 1874 The father Of Gordon on
Monday took both boys, with the sovereigns,
to the police station. The police proceeded to
the spot and found $50 sovereigns, including
those found by the boys, the whole sum hay
ing been In bag. Subsequently the police by
bags IN different places, only couple of inches
under the sand. The grand total Of sovereigns
recovered is S,742. The bags in which the
money was found are supposed to have been
stolen from the royal mail steamer iberia some
time ago. They had evidently been opened
and some soyereigns had been taken out of
each before they were planted"
Four OF the i've bags lost have now been
found.

yesterday by deputy United States marshal
and carried to Indianapolis, charged with vio-
lating the pension law. Both parties waived
preliminary hearing, and were bound over to

upon which the arrest was made charges Wilson
with having made an affidavit before the circuit
court that the woman was never really the wife
of Fox, with whom she lived some years until
his death. and that the three children born to
them were illegitimate. Upon the facts set
forth the pension due her by the death of her
