THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOOMSBURG, COLUMBIA COUNTY, PA.
A Oampalgn Secret Given Away.
In tho campaign of 1881 tho two
candidates for governor in n "pivotal
Wctcrn Stato arragncd for a scries
of joint discussions. UolH men wore
popular, both of fine appearance nml
wcrs bo well matched in mental forco
anil as orators that tho contest boween
them promised to bo a magnlficant
ono. Vot several weeks the scales
balanced evenly.
Unt ono day tho brilliant KcpublU
can enndidato emtio up ailing. Ho
seemed overcomt and spoko laboredly
Tlio next day ho was even less effect
ive. Later ho was compelled to ask
his opponent for a postponement of
certain appointments, which was
granted. Uoforo tho campaign ended
ho bad abandoned tho field altogether.
Moantimo tho Democratio candidate
continued his canvass, seeming to grow
stronger, cheerier and moro effective
with each succeeding week. Ho was
elected. Ono evening in December
whilo ontortnlnint? soveral gentlemen
ho said:
"I will tell you a campaign secret
which gave mo tlio election. With tho
opening of my campaign I began car
ing for my liver. I knew that a disor
dered or torpid liver meant dullness
and possible sickness. I look some
thing ovcry day. When my opponent
began failing I know bis troubto to bo
bis liver and felt liko prescribing for
him, but feared if I did so bo might
beat mo I I grow stronger as tlio cam
paign progressed, often making two
speeches a day. liven my voice, to
my surprise, did not fail mo at once.
All becauso Wninor's safo euro kept
mo in A 1 trim." Ex-Governor Jaoob,
of Kentucky, nlso tnado a campaign

01' ONE AUAINST A HUNimKH
Tlio rolo of tho torpedo-boat, reads a
translation from Figaro in tlio Now
Orleans HHmcs-Dcniocrat, is terrible,
and tlioso who direct its movements
aro exposed to tlio greatest dangers.
A singlo heavy shot may scatter it to
atoms, and when it approaches tho
enemy a bail ot balls from tho mitrail
leuses and rifles will do terrible execu
tion on board. Therefore, tho mero
fact of embarking on a torpedo-boat is
a guaranty of bravery. Figaro to
yourself tho situation of tho officer in
command of such a torpedo-boat who
is ordered to sink a ship of tho enemy's
squadron. All bis surroundings con
stitute ono vast danger. Tho very sea
that hides and protects him during tho
first part of his expedition may in an
other moment toss his corpse hither
and thither upon its waves. His ad
versary will seek to riddlo tho boat
with rain of steel, cast-iron and lead.
Tho torpedo itself, which carries such
terror with it, might bo touched with a
missile and explode, bursting tho torpedo-boat
into atoms.
Tho combat commences. The ves
sels of tho fleet have opened lire.
Shell rains in all directions. One of
our cruisers, cannonaded heavily on
tlio star-board sido by a fort mounting
twelve Krupp guns, is simultmeously
attacked on tho larboard sido by ono of
tho enemy's iron-clads. Sho has al
ready suffered severely, and her posi
tion becomes critical. A mast signal
torpedo-boat staits. Tlio watchful en
emy has observed tho signal. Ho
knows tho danger, and at once con
centrates tho firo upon tlio littlo gray
speck which is shooting rapidly tow
ard him. Three miles Bcparato them,
and the torpedo-boat must make that
threo miles in ten minutes. If it is
not sunk befoio it has transversed
that distance tho iron-clad is lost.
Therefore, the caunonors point their
Runs with the most scrupulous care.
Tho first shells pass wido of their mark
but the aim is rectified, and soon the
shells full eo near tlio toipedo-boat that
they throw tho water over it. Now
onohasfallenright.it its piow. A
geyser jet of water thirty feet high
conceak the torpedo-boat; tho enemy
believe it has been sunk, and utter a
tremendous cheer. I5ut the; projectile
has only rioochettcd and past over it.
Tlio water falls back in rain, and tho
bravo littlo vessel .reappears all stream
ing with brine, as though it had
emerged from the tea-deeps, and rush
ing on at full steam in tho faco of
death.
There aro only nine men on tho little
vepscl, and they nrc going to attack a
soit of leviathan carrying an imiiunso
crew. It is not tho fight of ono against
ten, but of ono against a hundred.
Not a singlo word is uttered beyond
tho necessary orders. Those men
whom death alicady touches with his
fingers aro idleiit nnd grave. And do
not suppose fur a moment that they do
not think of danger. On tho conliary,
they think of nothing else. Hut it is
not of their own danger of failure.
It is not a question of their liv.es, but
of tho success of tho enterprise. It is
essential that tho torpedo-boat shall
reach the enemy's Hank and rt'Heuo our
cruisir. After that, if the torpedo
bout pinks, bo much tho worso 1
Every nerve is strained, ovcry eye is
directed towaid the object in view.
Now tho boat is only fivo bundled
yaid-away fiom tho iron-clad. The
tiiuoftho mitrnillcurcs mingles with
the hhowcis of cliells and swieps the
deck; evi l j thing wooden is t-plinttiid
to atiis with gr.-ipc-shol. An inci s
sant firo of rcpiutieg lilies from the
mast tops of tho iron-clad plays over
the torpedo boai, and the balls enur
ing tliiongh the few openings in tin
di'iks, liine already dUulili (I three men,
They lio in a comer, to which tiny
bavu been iilile to diag lhemclvt!K, for
llicio iH no time now to ntuud to thwn.
They may bo thought of in two min
utes mon after tho fate of all thall
havo been decided.
Tho toipedo-bo.it has almost reached
its enemy. The succss of the expedi
tion is now ftiMued, for tho shell bat
teries aio powirless to harm tho torpedo-boat
at such short range, Tito
title firo teiriblu as it i, can not sink
her. It can only kill somo of her crew;
but that is of no great consequence.
Now is the time when tho captain
needs all h'n surety of eyo and cool
ness of will; now is tho timo that his
men must executo ordeis with tho
rapidity of lightning, for if tho torpedo
be fired n second too soon it will fail
to do its teiriblo duty, nnd yet if there
bo a delay of a moment tho torpedo
boat miibt dash iteelf to pieces against
tho sides of its mighty adversary.
Now tho boat seems almost ready to
touch tho enemy's vessel, Hand
grenades Hung upon her deck rebound
ami burst; ono man is killed; the cap
tain has iwivcd a terriblo wound in
tho IWc, but, summoning all his
Btrcnght he supports himself eicct
ngaimi the it on wall by a sublime eft
n f wil' livid, drenched with
1 tn d, i.t tu ii.incd in his calm re
rolve ni,d brnvu-y.
'Heady I Let her go I" i
Tho awful missile is launched An
enormous snrgo appears In the water,
And n frightful crackling noiso is heard,
followed uy a terriblo cry of distress,
Tho pigmy hai conquered tho giant.
"llard n starboard I''
And tho littlo vessel, suddenly wheel
ing around, steams nway at full speed,
whilo tho enemy's Iron-clad sinks to
tlio bottom,
Ten minutes afterward tho torpedo
boat has returned to iU post besido
tho admiral's vessels. Tho admiral
sends for tho captain in ordur to con
gratulato him, Hois catried to him
upon n bier. Meanwhile tho fight goes
on. A now expedition may prove no
cessary. A provisory captain is at
onco appointed, nnd four mon to com
plete tlio decimated crow; and torpedo
boat is ready to fulfill another mission!
it has another band of heroes to direct
it. Daily Bread.
A littlo girl in n wretched nttio,
whoso sick mother had no bread, knelt
down by tho bedside, and said, slowly:
"Give us this day our daily bread."
Then sho went into tho street, and be
gan to wonder "whero God kept his
bread.'' Sho turned round tho corner,
and saw a largo, well-filled baker's
shop.
"This," thought Lottie, "this is tho
place." So sho entered confidently,
and said to tho stout baker, "I've como
for it."
"Como for what?"
'My daily bread," sho said, pointing
to tho tempting loaves. "I'll take two,
if you ploaso-ono for my mothor and
ono for me,"
"All right," said tho baker, putting
them in a bag, and giving them to his
littlo customer, who started at onco
for the street.
"Stop, you littlo roguo I" ho said,
roughly; "whero is your money ?"
"I haven't any," sho said dimply.
'illavcn't any!'' ho repealed angrily;
'you littlo thief, who brought you hero,
then 1"
Tho hard rfurds frightened tho littlo
girl, who bursting into tears, said :
"Mother is sick, and I am so hungry.
In my prayers I sjyjil, 'Givo us this day
ourdail bread,' arid thcuIthoughlGod
meant to fetch it, and so I came."
Tlio rough but kind-hearted baker
was softoned by tho child's siiuplo talc,
and ho sent her back to her mothor
with a basket well filled.
Ncttio had faith in God : sho nsked
and expected to receive. Perhaps if
somo older persons had moro faith in
their asking, they would havo moro joy
in receiving.
"When sho asked for daily bread, it
may bo that, in somo way, God may
mean us to fetch it, or to put ourselves
in tho way of getting it. Ho is ready
to fulfil his promises but wo must bo
in tho appointed attitudo of trusting
expectation. Selected.

And none were moro astonished than
those who had signed his petition.
And I regret to say that my namo is
to bo found upon it. I havo refused
several whom I knew to bo unfit, but I
signed this ono thinking it would never
bo considered, and not for ono moment
believing tho appointment was possible.
When first presented to mo I put him
off, and hoped to escape, but iio camo
again with it, aiid,with others, I signed
it thinking there was no chance for its
reaching even a consideration. I think
not a man whose name is on it hail
tho remotest idea that his appointment
was possible. Not ono upon it would
havo aiinoiiited him had ho the ap
pointing power. Ho is not qualified
morally or protcssionally. lio is
scarcely a latvycr at all, whilo the
placo will rcquiro a good lawyer. I
do not wish to say moro than to put
you upon inquiry. Wc aro friends,
nnd do business with one another, and
it is unpleasant to have to say this.
Hut it is duo your responsibility and
from every ono who signed that peti
tion. And it was signed by many
prominent men who hated to refuse,
and hoped nnd thought it would result
in nothing. I do not wish you to tako
any action upon my representation, but
if you wish to know tho real opinion
of tho signers of the petition, causo
some of them to bo addressed private
ly, aud I think thoy will confess tho
objections to tho appointment greater
than I havo intimated. The petition
is Bigned by two of our Supremo
Judges, ( ) Let them both ba
privately addressed, if it is not too late,
and I think you will learn tho facts.
I ilo not wish to speak behind a pri
vate letter, but at tho samo time I
would prefer that my name bo not
given to for obvious reasons, and
I do not stipposo it will bo thought ne
cessary to do so.

as . I havo written to you be-
foro about him. He, too, has a peti
tion signed by repulablo men (my
namo is not on it), not ono of whom
would appoint him to any placo what
ever or any trust whatever, lie is
wholly without character, oven if ho

Dbah Sin: I havo read your letter
of tho 21th tilt., with amazement and
indignation. Thcro is but ono mitiga
tion to tho perfidy which your letter
discloses, and that is found in tho fact
that you confess your share in it. I
don't know whether you aro a Demo
crat or not; but if you nre, tho crimo
which you confess is tho moro unpar
donable Tho idea that this Adminis
tration, pledged to givo tho people bel
ter government nnd better otlicers, and
engaged in a hand-to-hand tight with
tho bad elements of both parties,
should bo betrayed by tlioso who
ought to be worthy of implicit trust, is
atrocious; and such treason to tho
peeplo and to tho party ought to bo
punished by imprisonment. Your con
fession comes too lato to bo of iiuinc.
diato use to the publiu service, and I
can only sav that whilo this is not tho
first timo I havo been deceived and
misled by treacherous representations,
you nrotho lirstouuthat has so fiankly
owned his griovous fault. If any
comfort is to bo extracted from this as
surance you aro welcome to it.
Yours truly,
