An ex.tTnitel States aud e1-Contederate

HIS LAST SUPPORT.

One of the sadest and most pathetic
incidents of Washington life, which
serves at once to point moral and
adorn tale, is related of General
Simon Cameron and Col. Robert In
gersoll, as follows:
One cherries, rainy night the ven-
cradle Simon Cameron was sitting in
the office of the Ebbitt house, gazing
out through the window into the fog
and darkness. He was lost in thought
and his face was the picture of mel
ancholy. Presently Colonel Ingersoll
entered.
What has happened, general?" he
asked. "You look as if you'd just
lost your last friend"
"Ah, Bob" said the old man with a
sigh, 81 have just seen a cruel, pitiful
sight. An aged and crippled soldier
was painfully toiling up the street
yonder and was making some pro-
gress, when along came big, double
listed, broad-shouldered fellow and
kicked the crutches out from under
the old cripple, leaving him, feeble
and helpless, to pick himself up as
best he could"
81 would to God had been there"
cried Ingersoll, angrily. Td have
trounced the ruffian! [ never heard Of
so brutal an outraged What, abuse an
old and crippled man like that? I'd
make quick work of the brute"
"Wait a moment, Bob," interposed
old Simon Caremon, gently, 81 was
that aged and crippled veteran and
was toiling along to my grave; and it
was you, Bob, who came across my
path and kicked from under me the
crutches that supported me in that
last journey"
Colonel Ingersoll made no answer;
the old man continued to look mourn
fully out into the night.

Train Robbers Fooled.

1t was suspected that an attempt
would be made to rob the Southbound
Frisco passenger train, which leaves
Fort Smith at 2 a. M, the robbery to
take place at Cameron, |. T., small
station about 20 miles South of the
Border City.
Four suspicious looking characters
were seen lurking in the vicinity dur
ing the evening. They were heavily
armed and evidently meant mischief.
Col. Crump, United States marshal,
was wired to send down some deputies
and four armed guards went south on
the passenger. The robbers failed to
materialize when the train reached
Cameron, evidently having heard that
they were to be accorded o warm re-
ception. 1t is supposed that the rob-
bers thought some of the Choctaw
money was on the train, as payment
time is drawing near.

THE PRIMARY ELECTION.
]. D. Sanderson Receives a Majority
of the Democratic Vote, as Shown
by the Last Election.

Yesterdays Democratic primary
election passed off very quietly-no
disturbance or friction whatever oc-
cured Taking everything into con-
sideration, large vote was polled-a
majority of the Democratic vote, as
shown by the last general election,
held in November last. Col w. r.
Kelly having refused to 60 into the
primary, Mr.. j. D. Sanderson had no
opposition, hence the vote was natur-
ally smaller than would have been the
case otherwise. There being no con-
test, a number of Mr.. Sanderson's
friends dld not 60 out and vote. The
primary was held in fair and Just
manner-number were turned away
and not allowed a vote, because the
Judges thought they were ineligible;
no negro was allowed to vote, and all
other instructions and rules laid
down by the Central Committee were
followed out, as near as possible. No
election was held at two boxes, Mt.
Pleasant and Shiloh. Mr. j. H. Few,
one of the judges appointed to help
hold primary at Mt, Pleasant, reports
that Col. Kelly's friends talked against
it strongly, thus preventing the get
ting of enough judges and clerks to
open the polls.
Below we give the official vote of
the primary; also Mr. McRae's vote in
the general election held last Novem-
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1893-07-19

Besides the above Mr.. McRae re-
ceived last November, So votes at Mt.
Pleasant and 81 at Shiloh, which
made his total vote in Garland town
ship 544. Of this total it is conceded
he received 80 negro votes. Deduct
ing from Mr.. McRae's 544 votes the
number cast for him at the two boxes,
where no election was held for Mr..
Sanderson, the same being IS, and the
so negro votes, total of 123, we find
the relative vote to be: McRae, 421;
Sanderson, 307; giving Mr.. Sanderson,
at q primary election, three-fourths of
the vote received by Mr.. McRae, at a
Congressional contest. Fishback's
vote last September, in the township,
was 571; on this vote Democratic rep
resentation will be based in county
and state matters, until after the next
election, so Mr.. Sanderson received
more than majority of the Demo
cratic vote, based upon Fishback's
vote. Mr. Sanderson clearly received
more than majority vote of the Dem
ocratic patrons of the postoffice in
Garland township.
This should settle the question as to
who should become our postmaster,
and Mr.. McRae will no doubt at once
recommend Mr.. Sanderson, and have
him appointed to the place. 1t is
clearly his duty to do so. Mr.. Mcl}ae
told Messrs. Paul Jones, j. w. Harriss,
and others that he would abide q
primary election held absolutely un-
der the auspices and control of the
Democratic County Central Commit
tee; he is therefore bound to abide
the result Of the primary, and we have
no doubt but that he will do so.
Now let the partisans Of both sides
quiet down, and drop the matter.
Democrats, get together and prepare
to win in next years election.

They Favor Silver.

Notwithstanding all the leading
commercial organizations of Arkansas
have declared in favor of the uncon-
ditional repeal of the Sherman Silver
law, the State delegation in Congress,
will, with the possible exception of
one man, vote against its repeal. SEN
ator Jones attended the meeting OF
the Little Rock Board Of Trade FRI
day last when the resolutions request
ing him to vote for the repeal of the
act passed that body by an unanimous
vote. Two hours later while on the
train en-route to st. Louis he said he
would not vote for its repeal. 1t is
well known that Senator Berry holds
the same view. The one exception is
Congressman W. L. Terry of Little
Rock, and his vote is in doubt. He
refuses to commit himself on the ques-
ton.

SENATOR TELLER ON SILVER.

After the wild and in some instances
fanatical utterances Of the leading
speakers at the recent silver confer
ence Of Colorado, held at Denver, it is
indeed refreshing to hear the views
of a man from that state who is able
to discuss the subject intelligently
without resorting to passion, preju-
dice and bitter personal, as well as
political, abuse. Such q man is United
States Senator Henry M. Teller, Of
Colorado, the recognized leader of the
free silver fol ces, who, in a recent in
teryiew on this subject, spoke as fol-
lows;
"rhe Colorado people in general do
not indorse tho rabid frothings of
Gov. Waite, Mr. Holden and one or
two others. The condition Of affairs
in Colorado" continued the Senator,
"is bad enough, but might be worse.
No state in the Union has more varied
resources than Colorado, and if other
industries were only half as well de-
veloped as silver mining we would
have no fear Of the future, and as it
now stands we are not yet in what
could reasonably be termed desper-
ate plight. / doubt not but that Col.
orado will come out all right in the
long run.

The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1893-07-29

In one of the grammar schools on
the east side is a boy who has a great
admiration for his father. His fathers
word is law to him, though he pays
not the slightest attention to any
thing that his mother may say. This
bright young one was very much
disguised by the question put to him
by his teacher when he first entered
the grammar school. After giving
his shame to the teacher he was asked.
What is your fathers occupationT
"Wot's that2" was his reply in q
mystitied tone.
What is your fathers busiuess3
What does he do2"
Dor Why he don't do nothin. He
just bosses, seer the boy answered,
in most aggrieved way.
The boys father is foreman in the
street cleaning department, and his
son had seen him directing the men
under him, and so considered it an
insult that any one should suppose
that his father worked like ordinary
New York Times.
