"If 1t is not too early | would like to tell
you a campaign story" remarked the chief
of one Of the bureaus of a downtown depart
ment to the Baltimore Herald. "Cne of the
actors In 1t was very frequently spoken OF
as a possible candidate before the Chicago
convention, and the other, by a peculiar
combination OF events, had been spoken of
In connection with the nomination as gov.

THE scene was In a western state, though
neither Of the gentlemen reside in that
state now. Both were candidates for a
small county Office, and both then, as they
are now, were hustlers forf-anything they
were after They were makihgDa house-to-
house canvass, which was necessary at that
time, owing to the sparse stipulation, and
while they ondeavored to woFkifin different
sections, they frequently found themselves
in the same neighborhood at The same time.
The occurrence which | refer To was at a
farm about a mile distant from the village
where both candidates were 10 speak the fol
lowing day. The candidates kept their eyes
pretty well on each other during the early
part of the day. but during the afternoon
they started out to do missionary work at
farmhouses. By a singular circumstance
they landed at the same farm,s though one
did not know the other was theSs until later
on, ~
'The man hrst referred to, finding that the
owner of the farm was absent. devoted him
self to the wife, and. of course, said all kinds
of nice things to her, making speeial inquiry
after the children, whether They had caught
the measles. which prevailed at the time, etc.
The lady seemed charmed with the attention
shown her, but said she would have to be ex-
cused, as she had to milk the COW. The can
didate kindly offered to assist in tina per-
Torrance, saying that, though he could not
milk, he could keep the flies off the COW, OF
at least hold her tail.
while engaged in holding the cows tail
he yentured to ask II his competitor for the
Office had been around yet. oh, yes an

the back barn, and is holding the calf, for
