say he was never legally elected and
held the Office four years not only with
out the right to do SO, but in direct
violation of law Whose opinion is of
most value?
Again, Tom Fletcher, upon the same
vote which was destroyed by Rodman
| by Fletcher's order, commissioned
Charles Dougherty, Democrat. as
Sheriff of jackson county, and no votes
| were destroyed or ignored or declared
fraudulent, as stated by Colonel Van
Horn. in order to seat the members of
the Legislature elected at the same
election. but they were seated upon
certificates based upon the entire vote
of the county as certified by the Coun-
ty Clerk, Ezra r. Hickman, Colonel
Van Horn says that he (Rodman) refus-
ed to give anybody a certificate of cleo
tion when the vote of jackson county
was factor till the Legislature decid
ed the question of its legality, and then
issued certificates in accordance with
that decision. How true this statement
is may be determined by the records.
First, the Legislature had nothing to
do with the decision in repard to the
legality of either Van Horns, Towns
ley's or Warmers election. Next, the
certificates were issued to Townsley
and Warner before the Legislature was
convened, and beause Rodman had is
sued such certificates of election Judge
Wagner said it was too late to issue a
mandamus to compel him to count the
votes from jackson county. Colonel
Van Horn says they-referring to Sem
ator Vest and Governor Crittenden-
will find some, at least, who had knowl-
edge and who have memories and can
make it just as hot as they will want
to stand. Fortunately, the facts above
recited are matters of record and do
not depend upon the recollection of
Van Horn and Warner for substantial
ton, and they were the parties who
were the beneficiaries of the greatest
outrage upon free government the
world has ever witnessed, and they
may yet find it can be made as hot as
they want to stand. Republic.

Island Birds' Eggs Their Only Food
Their Flag Of Distress Answered.

GLOUCESTER, Mass, June 29.-The crew
bf the schooner Shenandoah, wrecked In
The Strait OF Belle Isle, arrived home yes
|srday, and report the vessel a probably
total loss. On the night OF May %, while
peoessding TO the fishing grounds, the
thenandeth struck on Twin Island, and
the Sea soon made her q complete wreck.
In attempting to launch the doriss, three
ksrs smashed, leaving only four in which
10 save IS men.
After hard struggle the crew succeed
"a IN getting away from the sinking
braft. The night was very cold and dark,
with strong wind blowing, and the
boats drifted at the mercy OF the sea,
several times coming In contact with ice
berg., Of which there we're many In that
When the morning dawned, landing
Was affected ON barren, uninhabited
osland where the crew remained 10 days,
sheltered only by turning over the dories
and getting under them. For three days
the men were without food, then birds
eggs were found In great quantities, and
these, with little -four that drifted
ashore from the wreck, werc all they had
70 eat.
When the weather moderated the ves-
ool Jvaa boarded, some sails and fresh
Sgntor taken ashore, and a tent made
that sheltered them during their stay on
Che island. A lighthouse that stood on
that coast. was burned about one year
pgo and a new one has not yet been
brccted.
Il was many miles from the nearest
settlement. and to get there In small
boats was almost impossible. The only
moving things the shipwrecked men saw
Tor several days were iceburgs drifting
with the wind and tide.
Az ther scanty stock OF provisions be-
gan to get short, the situation became
more alarming. The only hope of rescue
Was from steamers from Europe passing
through Belle Isle, bound up the st. Law
eence, and on account Of ice, IL was too
pArly In the season for them to take that
pessage.
A flag OF distress was kept flying, and
at the end OF the nineteenth day, 1t was
seen BY Newfoundland trading vessel,
bound for Labrador. This vessel took on
the shipwrecked men and landed them
at Boone Bay, from where they were sent
by the United States consular agent on
she steamer Harlow to Halifax, thence by
steamer 70 Boston.
Captain Sweet remained at the latter
placs, awaiting the agent and a steamer

get on the vessel II possible.
