Circus Mans Campaign for Congress

years ago selling suspenders, and some
people remembered his circus. The old
instincts seemed to come back to the FIRE.
mont man.
Jackson determined to make a fight for
the Office and upon unique lines. He had
plenty of money, and he was willing to
spend it. He purchased a large tallyho,
with a capacity for twenty men, and four
bay horses were engaged. With a band and
a corps of speakers the underwear mer-
chant started out to tour the district. With
a blare of trumpets the tallyho would dash
into town, parade the streets while the
band played, and then, as the crowd col
lected, the speeches were delivered. Jack
son wore a cylinder hat, to which he con-
stantly referred. He told the people Of his
early struggles in life, of the fortune which
he had amassed, the factories he had built,
the girls he employed, and he promised
government buildings and harbor improve
ments that would make Norton turn green
with envy.
While Jackson was thus engaged some of
his friends took up his cause, and they
started out with the idea that the man was
sure to win. 1t seemed preposterous TO
most people, but gradually the idea gained
ground. Jackson and his son-in-law and a
few friends bet thousands of dollars on the
result, securing odds, of course. Finally
they offered even money. The result shows
that Jackson and his friends will have won
enough in bets to more than pay the ex-
penses of the campaign.
Meantime Norton was kept busy explain
ing some previous speeches, his connection
with the Baltimore & Ohio Railway COM
pany as tax agent, his attitude toward
Tom Johnson, etc, while local fights took
up some more of his time. The revolt was
growing, and Jackson was taken up enthu-
siastically. So it was that when the vote
was counted it was found that Norton had
lost his own county, together with four
others, and the two that stood by him had
the pluralities cut in half. Jackson swept
his own county and invaded the Norton
home. He had gained his election.
Jackson's career is an interesting one.
He was born in 1S47 in Delaware county,
New York. His family moved to Steuben
county when he was but 7 years old. later
on moving to Corning. The family of
boys had but little training in the country
schools. Young Jackson was apprenticed

as a carpenter, and like Garfield, drove
canal mules. At the age Of 10 Jackson
decided to go west. He had saved up
$500, but while asleep in Kansas City he
was robbed of this. He went to work to
recuperate his fortune and finally en-
gagged on a small scale in peddling.
Later he bought a horse and wagon and
took up the selling of suspendcrs, making
a great success. He also became an auc-
tloneer, being known as the "Auctioneer
King and in 1872 located in Fremont.
When he had accumulated about S25, 900 he
decided to engage in the circus business,
but bad weather and other conditions
ruined this, and he lost every cent he had.
He again took up peddling, having a COR
geous wagon built for this purpose, and
hnally got possession of a stock of dry
goods. He was forced to make an assign
ment in this, and while left stranded he hit
upon a new idea, that Of making bustles
or wire. He soon had 300 people EMPLOYED
IN this, and then the hustle fad died out.
Jackson was left with a big stock of goods
on hand, together with machines, and he
hnally went into the business of manu-
featuring underwear. In this he has been

of the whole United States, for example,
has an average Of but seventeenth of one
cubic foot for the display of each specimen,
while the American Museum of Natural
History in New York City has something
over sixteen cubic feet. The New York
museum has, in other words, IS, 600, 900
cubic feet of space in which to exhibit
1900, 600 specimens; the National Museum
in Washington has 5000, OOO cubic feet in
which to display 1884, 72 specimens.
The appropriations for the National Mu,
scum have increased so much more slowly,
Mr.. Langley also points out, that in the
collection of specimens the sum of 81, 900,
considered in 1896 hardly adequate to
care for 5,13O specimens, did like duty in
1901 for 20,925. The number of specimens
has increased five times, while the amount
OF money appropriated has not even
doubled. Perhaps the reason is that to
many congressman a museum is still pri-
marily a place to which school children
may be taken by their teachers on half
holidays for mere amusement, or because
the very position Of the museum as a ma
tional institution may naturally have put
it somewhat out OF the financial running
in an age when scientific institutions are
so often the object of private benevolence.

in handicapping it in its primary object Of
preserving types of all our native animals.
The criticism is often made that the Ma
tiOnal park has been treated by congress
rather as a District of Columbia affair than
as a matter of national scope and import
ance, and the actual purpose for which It
was founded has been so thoroughly neg
lected that those most interested in the
preservation of native American wild ami

most before their eyes. Many others Of
the larger of these animals, indeed, have
already practically disappeared, and II
seems likely that all opportunity Of pre-
serving the few examples that remain will
soon have passed away. In the park itself,

Johnson in a circus campaign.
- was A. H. Jackson Of Fremont,
Sandusky county, whose election
- as congressman from the Ohio
Thirteenth district over James A. Norton
(dem.) of Tifin, was the elimination OF
one Of the most remarkable contests in re-
cent political history.
1t required just such a man as Jackson
and just such a campaign as he conducted
to do the trick, reports the Cincinnati En-
quirer. incidentally, it must be said that
women played no small part in the cam
paign. Jackson employs a couple Of thOus-
and young women in his factories in differ
ent cities in the district, and they were
enthusiastic supporters of his candidacy.
That they influenced the voters there can
be little doubt.
Few people believed that Jackson could
be elected. James A. Norton was running for
the fourth time. He had made a good rec
ord in congress, and, although in the mi
nority, had accomplished much for San
dusky. In Erie county he stood especially,
high, having done much for the chamber Of
commerce, both in securing harbor APP
preparations and the preliminary steps for a
new government building.
Norton had mixed in local contests in
Inherent counties ana mad thus aroused OPP
position in Sandusky and Seneca counties.
The fight for the nomination at the conyen-
ton, in which W. E. Scofeld OF Marion was
defeated, led to a rupture in that county.
Two years ago Norton was elected by over
5000 plurality, but this was to be cut down
in a way little dreamed of.
The outlook for a republican victory in
the district was not very bright early in
the fall when the leaders commenced cast
ing about for a candidate. Little interest
was then manifested. The name of Jack
son, an underwear manufacturer of Ere
mont, had been suggested and the Fremont
people, with local pride, doomed his can
didacy. Jackson was a busy man and did
not want the nomination, so stating. But
no one else cared for it and the convention
went through the form of nominating him.
So little interest was taken in the matter
that Erie county republicans held no eau
Gus to select delegates and forty men were
named by the committee to act as dele
gates. OF the forty only one went to the
convention.
That was the beginning of the campaign.

ways humorous, and who seems always
about to make merry with the whole queer
lot"
With all these matters Of interest to
make us feel proud Of our leading scientific
institution, however, there is unfortu-
nately another side to the shield. Few
realize how seriously and how often it's
work is handicapped by lack OF money. The
condition is most obvious in the crowded
rooms OF the museum itself and the in,
adequate accommodations which the Ma,
tional park provides for many Of the ami,

alleviated by a swim without injury to
their eyes. Specimens have come in faster
than the growth of appropriations neces-
sary to provide room for them, and what
will be done about 1t still remains for the
consideration of future congresses.
Even the Smithsonian itself as an or
ganization, to complete this hard fact side
Of an otherwise gratifying picture, is more
than a little handicapped by lack of money.
Its treasury has apparently been taken for
granted by the worlds capitalists. The dis
advantage is hardly so evident when one
thinks only of the work accomplished and
all the things that are now going forward;
but 1t is pointed out that the very extent of
the field covered by its latest publication is
good earnest Of the enormous further extern
sion, both direct and indirect, that would
follow were the funds Of the institution in
creased to keep pace with the spread of
scientific curiosity, for which it is so very
largely responsible, not only through such
a superb publication as the present report,
but in a thousand other ways hardly
touched on even here.

The cid Carter White Lead Works prop
erty, an area of three and one-half acres,
was quietly purchased a year and a half
ago, but not until this season was the
building Of the equipment undertaken.
In the public estimation a coal yard
usually consists of tumble-down sheds
adjacent to a railroad track and enclosed
by a board fence.
The Sunderlands, in the belief that Omaha
has a great future al.d knowing that the
finest of facilities would attract a large
increase of patronage, determined to build
a modern, up-to-date ccal yard equipment
which would not only handle their large
present business, but also the growth in
volume for years to come.
There is a cement warehouse with a
capacity of fifty carloads, a soft coal shed
of twelve bins with a total capacity of
5000 tons, a modern office and two new
ten-ton wagon scales inspected and sealed
ny the city scale inspector, a half mile of
railroad trackage and a like amount of
driveways. These are not deserving of

In any ordinary coal yard.

yard is the gravity loading storage build
ing which automatically discharges and

VERDICT FOR DEFENDANT.
Jury Decides in Favor of Railway in
Damage Suit

The jury in the case of E. L. Toison
against the Capital Traction Company which
has been on trial the past week before
Chief Justice Bingham in Circuit Court
No. 1, yesterday returned a verdict for the
defendant. Mr.. Tolson sued the Traction
company to recover $4,000 damages for an
alleged assault by one of the company s
agents.
In his declaration the plaintiff stated he
was passenger on a Capital Traction car
and was given a transfer by conductor on
the Pennsylvania avenue line emitting him
to a ride on the It'll street line. When he
offered the conductor the transfer at 7th
and F streets, the plaintiff claimed, he
was told that it was not good, as lis time
limit had expired. Upon refusing TO pay
his fare, Mr.. Tolson was elected from the
car by the conductor.
Attorneys Perry and Dunlop represented
the traction company.
