NEWTON IS NOT IN 1T.

Sewel Newton's friends urged him to run for
Representative as Republican Bolter,"
and he filed nomination papers to that effect.
After due deliberation he has decided not to
run. Here is a letter from him
Editor News and Citizen II noticed in
your issue of the 22d inst that l was a can
didate for Town Representative, which at
that time was an error. Now, I wish to say
through your columns to the good people of
Johnson that l am not candidate for Repre-
sentative or any other office at the present
time. The people of Johnson have treated
me more than kindly in the past in the way
of public trust. The town is not bankrupt,
nor a millionaire, although am accused of
using the town fund for electioneering pur-
poses. l am also accused of wantonly squan-
dering the public fund in the improvement of
our village streets. For all of which I care
nothing compared to the false accusations
brought against our young men, who have
naught but their regulations and health to
rely upon. May it be further understood
that the voters of Johnson are not to be
bought with poor rum nor sold by malicious
falsehoods. In conclusion l wish to say that
the candidates nominated are all gentlemen
worthy and well qualified to fill any position
the town sees fit to entrust them with. Re
serving the right to vote as l judge for the
best good of all, remain, Yours truly,

News and Citizen Il understand that there
is considerable feeling in the political field in
the town of ohnson, and that illusions have
been made to my connection with said town
respecting a certain suit which has been
brought concerning a piece of road, and
would like to make a statement to the voters
of Johnson, that brought suit against Mr.
Newton personally, and placed a body writ
upon him for trespass and damages. The
only reason why the town of Johnson has
anything to do with the matter is because
the present Selectmen and Town Agent of
said town have assumed the whole matter
which to me is very unsatisfactory, as do
not wish to fight the town of Johnson when
the whole affair is between Mr.. Newton and
myself I do not understand why it is that
the voters in any town will sustain any such
acton on the part of their officials. Said suit
has been appealed to county court by de-
PENDANTS. l consider this purely malicious
affair on the part of Mr.. Newton, and trust
the legal voters of Johnson will not approve
OF any such movement. c. NJ. GREY.

A Surgeons Terrible Mistake.

"a few years ago. said Charles J.
Patterson, of Philadelphia, IL learn
ed the secret of the life Of man who
had passed more than a quarter of a
century with scarcely a smile. He
had been a physician and surgeon and
on one occasion had to remove an in
jured eye in order to save the other
eye and prevent total blindness. The
night before the operation he had
been drinking heavily with some
friends, and, although the follow
ing morning he was sober, his hand
was unsteady and his nerves were un-
strung.
"After administering chloroform he
made fatal and horrible blunder, re-
moving the we'll eye by mistake, and
thus consigning his patient to perpet-
ual blindness. The moment he dis
covered his error he turned the man
over to a competent surgeon, decided ev-
erything he possessed to him, and
hurried from the neighborhood like a
convicted thief. The remainder Of his
life was one constant round of remorse,
and he rapidly developed into con,
frmed misanthropc. The secret OF
his life vas known to a number OF
people, but when it was finally reveal
ed to me it explained mystery and
made me respect the man, for however
grave was his original blunder, which
in some respects was, Of course, worse
than crime, his repentance was Of the
most genuine character. -Ncc York

which showed little more of the

showed her pretty ankle. Brown

what Brown must find out who the

A Hero In Humble Life.

Our telegraphic columns the other
day contained the story Of hero in
humble life.
A few nights ago mob Of striking
miners, over the protest of their more
conservative associates, made an
attack upon long trestle of the Kan
sas City, Memphis and Birmingham
road, near Adamsville, in Alabama,
in the center of the mining district.
Some of the more reckless miners who
were determined to prevent the haul
| ing of coal mined by non-union labor
tried to burn the trestle.
But they found lion in their path !!
William McLain, the watchman,
heard the mob approaching one end Of
the trestle about 3 o'clock ia the
morning. The men saturated the
wood work with oil and set fire to it.
McLain saw that the odds were over
whelmingly against him, but his brave
heart never faltered, and in the face
of almost certain death he opened fire
upon the marauders.
He was soon out of ammunition and
had to return to his station, where he
summoned his two daughters, one
aged nine and the other twelve, to his
assistance. Back to the trestle they
went to put out the fire and save the
property. A fusillade Of bullets came
from the mob, badly wounding Nc
Lain and his youngest daughter and
killing the older girl.
In this sad plight the wounded
watchman dragged himself to place
where he was able to obtain help to
save the company's property.
OF all the heroes whose names are
linked with great occasions, not one
| ever showed more fearless courage and
more single-hearted devotion to duty
than this poor fellow, who, with one
child murdered, and the other badly
wounded, while he himself was disa.
bled by the bullets Of the enemy, still
had the pluck to protect the property
, of his EMPLOYERS.
Our railroads make great mistake
when they fail to properly recognize
and reward such heroism and faithful
service.
A loyal, true man is worth more as
an employe than any one who takes
the place only for the money that is
in it. A disloyal man can destroy the
work of thousand good citizens in an
hour. -,
When the railroads find man like
NlcLain they should reward him.
Such conduct should be specifically
mentioned and proper praise should be
given. Thousands of men in Europe
are decorated with crosses and medals
for heroism when they are not half as
much entitled to the honor as gallant

The Jew as q Soldier.
Nashville Daily An,ericdn.

Among the delegates to the B mai
Birth Convention in this city recently
there were thirty who were old enough
to take up arms during the late war.
Of this number twenty-five shouldered
their muskets in defense Of their
country, twenty-four belonging to the
Confederate army, and one to the
Federal. This shows that the Israel
ite is as much of patriot as any other
man when the liberties Of his country
are endangered. In this connection
the following letter will be read with
interest.
GALVESTON, Tex, May II, 1894.
Leo N. Levi, Galveston--Dear Sir ::
My attention having been called by
you to the published remarks Of a
writer in dispal gement Of the patriot
ism and gallantry Of the Jew as SOL
dier, and having the honor to command
force composed to a considerable
extent Of Israelites, I feel impelled by
this attempted injustice to the race
to give my experience with them as
soldiers.
"Under commission from the Gov
ernment I organized 'Waul's Texas
Legion, upon the express terms that
they were to leave the State, Cross the
Mississippi River and join in the fray
where the blows fell heaviest and
thickest. The legion consisted Of ten
companies Of infantry, five companies
Of cavalry and two companies Of artil-
lery. Two of che infantry companies
had a large number Of Jews in their
ranks, and the largest company in the
command, 120 men, were oficered by
Jews, and .fourths of the rank
and file were OF thatfaith. There was
also a number of Jews scattered
through the command in other COM
panies. =
"They were all volunteers, and l
know there was not a Jew conscript in
the legion. As soldiers they were
brave, orderly and we'll disciplined,
and in no respect interior to the gal
liant body of which they formed a
prominent part. Their behavior in
the camp, as in the field, was exem-
plary. No Jew in the command was
arraigned before Court-martial, and,
in proportion to their numbers, there
were fewer applications for leaves OF
absence, and their regular habits
caused very few Of their names to
appear on the hospital rolls.
''In battle, without distinction OF
race or religion, all were apparently
willing and eager for the contest. |
will say, however, I neither saw nor
heard of any Jew sbirking or failing to
answer to any call of duty or danger.
II regret I can not go more into
details, but am unwilling to permit an
aspersion that remotely may affect the
Jews who served with me to pass un-
noticed, as to a considerable extent
the reputation won by the command
and personally obtained by myself
was acquired by their conduct, cour-
age and soldierly qualities, and | say
without hesitation thatin no attribute
suited to the soldier, whether as an
officer or in the ranks, will the Jew
| suffer by comparison with the best
and bravest of our army.
GAS these happenings were before
your time jot down these recollec-
tions that you may have the testimony
of one gentle to attest the courage,
endurance and patriotism of the Jew
as a soldier. Yours sincerely,
T. N. WAUL.

about. the effort will hardly be made.
The State committee, which has 10
agree upon the roll OF delegates, has three
contests before It. None have been de-
cided. The one from Lee will probably

an impression that the contest from Col

Hale county, Il Is alleged. shows a great

however. that the other delegates will
be allowed to retain their seats This
decision By the committee would not
