After seaching the county carefully
the only convert the Populists can
name Is one Thomas Perry Of North
Dickinson. He is referred on all pos.
sible occasions. Mr.. Humbargar,
candidate for superintendent, in an
interview a few days ago called him
"wealthy an prominent" aud he has
similarly figured in Populist papers
several times. He is neither wealthy
nor promit ent but he does constitute,
according to the best obtainable inior.
nation, in bis own proper person, the
"landslide" toward Populism. He,
all by himself. is raging down the
toboggan slide aud is in fact IRE.
volt" he Is commander, followers
and camp attaches of the army, a
distinguished position for one man to
occupy.
Mr.. Perry has informed the RE-
FLECTOR OF the reasons which impel
him to separate from the Republican
party with which on some occasions
he has partly voted. They are uni.
que and deserve preservation in the
annals Of Dickinson county as the
only instance OF the kind on record.
According to his claim he is against
the Republican party because 1t does
not give him pension. He says he
has three times been examined by as
many pension boards Of this county
and in each instance has been rejected.
In other words nine physicians have
examined him and all have agreed
that he is in good physical health,
able to earn a livelihood and not en-.
titled to the pension granted to vet
Grams who are afflicted lin some de-
gree. Yet MIR. Perry is angry. He
wants the president or some one In
the administration to give him a pen
sion-it it is not done, he proposes to
revolt.
The spectacle Of an able bodied
man, a man whom the strictest ex.
animation by nine doctors prononnces
strong and well, whining because fe
is not given a pension is something to
make men lose faith In humanity. He
does not lind fault with the admins
tration on any ground Of management
OF national affairs, he does not con.
slider whether or not it is governing
7O,OOO,0O0 people well, he snarls be-
cause it will not violate the pension
laws and grant him, an able-bodied
man, the relief which those laws in.
tend for the veterans really in need
and to whom the government is pay
ing now $40, 0O0,0 annually under
laws passed by the Republican party
Just consider the calibre Of a man
who finds fault on such ground!
Most men, If they thought it, would
keep it to themselves but Mr.. Perry
rushes into print with his remarkable
grievance. We submit that it is the
most unpatriotic claim ever known in
this country. If the Populists are
proud of that kind Of convert, they
are welcome to him. We should
think he would affiliate very nicely
with Mr.. Vincent in his opposition to
the Spanish war and with Governor
Leedy who sneers at the president
and supreme court.
The kind of patriotism which ami
mates Mr. Perry's "revolt" would
make anyone but Populist blush
and we miss our guess II some Of the
members Of that party do not feel
lust little ashamed OF it.

was assassinated at a political meeting
at Giles, in that county, while his pop
uiist opponent, EX-Sheritf Wn. Bagley,

school teacher and a democrat, and
VIM. Ba cley, eX~sheritf of the county
and the pOpulist nominee for the legis
atGre. Mr.. Adams had just made an
address in the interest of his candidacy
and the democratic party and was be-
ing answered by Bagley. Bagley made
some reference to Davis, the negro,
and was interrupted by the latter, at
which he became enraged, jumped
from the yeranda of the store from
which he was speaking and knocked
the negro down. Mr.. Adams, the muir
dered man, was a bystander at the
time the melee began. Shots we're fired

The recent death of the inventor of
the Bessemer steel process has brought
out some interesting anecdotes. He
was devoted to flowers, and his con-
servatory was fitted with mirrors so as
to produce the effect Of endless per-
speesive. To keep the surface OF the
mirrors clear from moisture, he had
hot water pipes arranged behind them,
which kept the glass 50 warm that it
never was obscured by dew. He was
color-blind, and avoided the introduc-
ton Of plants bearing red berries into
his conservatory because he confused
green and red.

Old Ned will cause many veteran to
.heaye q sigh at the thought that an
other war veteran has fallen from the
ranks Of those left after the civil con-
hict Of the sixties. Old Ned was not a.
.pensioner, although he was entirely de-
pendent. He was acknowledged to be-
the only surviving member Of the.
equine race which did service in the
late war. The steed lived to the re-
markable age of 43 years, and died this
month in the stable Of his owner, B. F.
Crawford, at North East, which had
been the horses home since the war
closed. Ned served in the armies Of
both North and South, doing his duty
as willingly for one side as for the
other. Yet he was not deserter from
either. The old nag's history would
make an interesting volume, as he had
been exhibited all over the country.
His teeth marks proclaimed him 9
years old when, in 1854, he was beau
