The Mystery of a Duel.

Having fought his duel and saved
his honor by firing a shot in the air,
the editor of a French provincial
newspaper went back to his desk and
the incident had quite left his mind
when he felt something strange IN
his thigh. He looked and found that
he was bleeding profusely.
A doctor was called, who discov-
cred that a bullet was embedded in
the EDITORS thigh some two inches
deep and required extraction. ''Why
was this not taken notice Of on the
spot where the duel took placer"
he asked The editor was as much
in the dark as the doctor. At the mo-
ment of the duel he had fired into
the air and his adversary also took
a distracted sort of aim. There had
evidently been no intention of doing
the slightest harm on either side.
The editor felt nothing as he left
the field and had shaken hands with
his antagonist as a sign Of reconcilia-
ton How a bullet came to be lodged
in his thigh was simply one % sIs
mysteries of ducling.

and a resolution was passed demand
ing that slavery be permitted to exist
In territory north of the Missouri COM
promise boundary and instructing the
senators to vote accordingly. Benton
denounced this resolution as treason
able and refused to obey it. He said
il did not represent the sentiment of
the people of the state and he appealed
from the Missouri legislature to the
Missouri people The struggle was bit
ter and intense. AS Benton was up
for reelection, It being the close of
his fifth term as senator, the effort
was to control the Legislature which
was TO elect the senator for the fol-
lowing term. Neither side obtained a
majority of the members and dead
lock resulted to be broken by the anti
Benton Democrats combining with the
Wings and bringing about Benton's
defeat.
The old warrior was not dismayed
and kept up the fight In 1852 he was
sent to the lower house Of congress
For thirty years he had been absolute
dictator in the politics of Missouri,
His word was final, and his wishes
law, but the tide had turned, and for
the remaining years of his life set
steadily against him. Yet at no time
In his career does Benton present a
more inspiring figure than when, with
his back to the wall, crowded on every
side by foes, he continued to battle for
the principles he believed in. By com
promising and by trucking to the pub
lie sentiment of his state he could
have regaincd his seat in the senate,
but he would have lost the love and
admiration due the brave man who
prefers defeat with the right to vic
tory with what he considers wrong.
BentOns mannerisms were marked
and did not tend to make him popular
with the masses. He seemed egOtis-
tical 10 the point of absurdity, yet in
him it was merely exaggerated self
respect To the casual observer stern
and pOmpOus, he was gentle and ten

we'll His public and private life were
above reprOach. His high sense OF
honor rs a public servant, his inCOr-
ruptible integrity, his unwavering adj
herence at whatever cost to the prin-
ciples he believed in, his powerful in
tellect and his aggressive energy com
bined to make him a fighter eminently
qualified to lead and represent the
militant people of the West in the first
half Of the last century.
He was defeated for reelection to
the house in 1891, and in 1886 became
the candidate of the Union Democrats
for governor, and ran third in the
race He was now "A years old, but as
vigorous and robust as ever. Without
lamenting his fate or the peoples in
gratitude, he cheerfully took up the
completion of his Thirty Years
View" giving a mental picture Of the
important events in the history of our
country with which he had been con-
nected. In 1858 he died in Washing
ton, undismayed by the storm of pub
lie misunderstanding that had wreck
ed his political life. He looked into

the future and saw the approval OF
coming generations whose views
would not be obscured by the passions
and excitement Of the moment. When
the news of his death reached Missouri
there was an entire change Of senti-
ment and all classes united to do
honor to his memory. They then real
lied that the mightiest man of Mis-
souri, was dead, the man who lowered
above friends and foes. All the state
was in mourning and his funeral at
st. Louis was attended by more than
forty thousand people.
Saved Missouri to Union.
1t was the fight Benton made that
enabled others, when the war came,
to keep Missouri in the Union. If Mis-
souri, had seeded there probably
would have been a different story to
tell than that which came from Apo
mattOx
So Benton won life's battle by sim
pie honesty, by perseverance. by hav-
ing ideals and remaining true to them
in sunshine and in shadow. His influ-
ence will be felt for good as long as
this republic lasts, and the failure to
secure political preferment at the end
of his life by giving up the fight &C
centuates the grandeur of his charac-
ter He lost for the moment, but in
losing he gained for all time. For him
there was victory In defeat. The les
son Of his life is-it is not essential
always to win, but it is essential to
keep the faith.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1910-10-27

for a protective duty on lead, which
was largely produced IN Missouri. In
this he made the mistake that has
been made by so many senators and
congressman Of this day, who say they
oppose protection, but vote for pro-
lection on the products of their own
states. thereby placing themselves in
the position of not being able to sue
Cessfully question the Justice of the
demand of those In other states for
larger share of protection for them
selves.
After the election of Andrew Jack
son to the chief magistraCy Benton be-
came the right arm of that great presi
dent. In the ATTEMPTED nullifcaion
Of the tariff laws by South Carolina,
Benton made effective Jacksons ulti
matum to that state demanding sub
mission to the law, by engineering the
passage of a compromise tariff bill
which stopped everybody from talking
of fighting, but satisfied nobody.
Fought United States Bank.
Jacksons greatest battle was
against the United States bank, which
he declared must either be put out of
business or 1t would run the govern
ment. Benton led this fight In the
senate. He brought up the question
in 1881 by submitting a resolution to
the effect that it was not expedient to
rc-charter the bank. The war against
the bank ragged fiercely for years 1t
had many powerful adherents and OBJ
tanned the support of a number of
members Of congress, as was shown
later by investigation, through what
amounted to brazen bribery In the
way of favCritism on loans. In the
midst of the fight the presidential cleo
ton of 1892 took place and Jackson
was triumphantly reelected. Shortly
after this Jackson made an order with
drawing the public funds from the
bank. This precipitated tremendous
public uproar and the senate adopted
q resolution Censuring Jackson for
the act Benton Immediately began
fight to eXpunge this resolution from
the record, and finally, in the last days
of the Jackson administration, the mo-
tion prevailed amidst great excitement
and the resolution Of censure was ex-
plunged by having a black border
drawn around 1t and across it's face
the words: "Expunged by order of the
senate, January 16, 1897" Jackson
deeply appreciated the value of Ben
toms support and years later, on his
deathbed, said to a friend: Tell Col
Benton l am grateful"
Benton was the supporter of Jack
sons successors to the presidency,
particularly of Van Buren, and Polk
but after Andrew Jackson, the presi-
dents up to the Civil war welded lit
tie influence compared with those be-
fore, and were largely engaged in a
game of hide-and-seek on the slavery
question.
In 1848 the anti-Bentonites carried a
majority of the Missouri legislature,

WHY NEW ORLEANS
CITY is LOGICAL POINT FOR
WORLDS PANAMA EXPOSITION.
Its Geographical Position and Many
Other Considerations Mark It as
Most Suitable Spot for Dedi-
cation of Great Work.

Public sentiment has decided that
the completion Of the Panama Canal
In 1915 shall be celebrated with a
great International Exposition in
which all the nations OF the world
may participate; and the question OF
where this Exposition is to be held
will be settled by Congress at its ap-
preaching session.
New Orleans and San Francisco
are contesting for the honor of hold
ing this Exposition, and both cities
have guaranteed immense sums of
money as an evidence Of their ability
to finance SO great an enterprise
An Exposition worthy Of the term
worlds Fair" such as New Orleans
proposes to build, will be a great ed
uCationaI movement Its success as
such, however, will depend entirely
upon the percentage Of our popula-
ton who can secure its educational
advantages, this in turn, depends up
on its location, as the time in travel
ing to and from the Exposition, and
the cost In railroad and Pullman
fares, are the most important factors.
Considering these matters, New
Orleans claims to being the "Logi-
cal Point" for this Panama EXPOSE
ton, seem to be fully substantiated
by the following facts
New Orleans Is 500 miles from the
center of population IN the United
States San Francisco is $500 miles
distant therefrom.
Within a radius Of 500 miles from
New Orleans there are 175OO,0oo
people. Within the same radius from
San Francisco there are only 100000.
Within a radius Of 1000 miles from
New Orleans, there are $4,000, 900.
Within the same radius from San
Francisco there are only 100000.
At an average of 900 miles from
New Orleans, there are 70 of our
principal cities with a combined
population OF 100000. Averaging
900 miles from San Francisco there
are only large cities, with a COM
bined population Of just 100000.
The average distance of all these
cities to New Orleans is 1872 miles,
to San Francisco 2,407 miles.
Over rs per cent. Of the people Of
the United States could go to an
Exposition there at an average ex-
pense for railroad fare Of $3.50, as
against an average OF $3.50 to the
Pacific Coast; and for several mil
lions Of our people, the Pullman
fare and Dining Car expenses alone,
for trip to San Francisco, would
amount to more than all their trans
portation expenses for a trip to New
Orleans.
This is an important public ques-
ton to be settled by Congress at the
session which convenes in December.
Many of our readers will wish to
visit this Worlds Panama Exposi-
ton, and II held in New Orleans
great many more could spare the
time and money for the trip than
could go to San Francisco. There
fore we urge our readers to write to
the two senators from this State and
the congressman from this district,
requesting them to support New Or
leans in the contest
