MAJOR JAMES M. BREDIN, formerly
of this place but of late years a citizen
of Franklin, Venango county, was
back among his old friends here last
week attending to some business.
THE present Post Master General,
Hon. Thomas L. James, ofXew York,
and appointed by President Garfield,
has been reappointed by President
Arthur to the same position in his
Cabinet.
THE Huntingdon County Republi
cans, at their convention last week,
recommended Hon. Wayne MacVeagh
for Governor next year, and instructed
their three delegates to the State Con
vention to use all honorable means to
secure his nomination
COL. DUDLEY, Chief of Pension
Bureau, estimates that there will be a
deficiency this year in the Arrears of
Pension appropriations, amounting to
nearly or quite $20,000,000. This is
very unsatisfactory, but the law is
itself to blame for the wuormous dis
bursments.
JUDGE C. J. FOLOER, of New York
State, has been appointed by President
Arthar and confirmed by the Senate of
the United States, as Secretary of the
Treasury, in place of Windom, resign
ed. The position had previously been
tondcred to the HOD. E. D. Morgan,
also of New York, who declined the
same.
AT the election next Tuesday the
question of State Treasurer need not
in any way effect the Republican coun
ty ticket. Every tub it is said should
stand upon its own bottom, and as the
Republican county ticket is. composed
of well known citizens they should be
judged upon their own merits without
regard to other questions.
GROUND BROKEN.—Ground was
broken last week on the railroad from
this place to Evansburg. A large
force of workmen are now rapidly grad
ing the line of the road below this
place and if the favorable weather con
tinues much progress will be made
this fall yet.
Our citizens are taking a lively inter
est in the improvement and already its
effects upon the business interests of
the town are visible. We have the
workmen and skilled labor here to
supply nearly every want the road
management may require.
LAST week we published the address
of the Republican State Central Com
mittee in the interest of Gen. S. M.
Baily for State Treasurer. This week,
at the earnest request of many Repub
licans, we publish the letters of Doctor
A. Y. Cunningham, of Zelienople, this
county, and of Thomas W. Phillips,
Esq., of New Castle, Lawrence coun
ty, in favor of Hon. Charles S. Wolfe.
We have afforded all a full and fair op
portunity to be heard, and in so doing
we have not only given the news that
a public journal should give to its
readers but have performed a public
duty as well.
DR. J. G. Holland, the popular
writer, and successful editor of Scrib
ner'a Monthly, died suddenly of heart
disease at his residence in Now York
city on tho 12th in«t. Dr. Holland
was born in Belchertown, Mass., on
July 24, 1819. Having'practiced med
icine for a short time, and afterwards
edited a literary journal for a few
moments, he passed a year at Yicks
burg as superintendent public schools.
In May, 1849, he became Associate
Editor of the Springfield Republican,
with which he was connected until 186(5.
He afterwards entered the field of book
writing and was quite successful
among his best works being "Timothy
Titcomb's Letters to the Young," His
tory of Western Massachusetts," "The
Bay Path," a novel, "Miss Gilbert's
Career," "Letters to the Joneses," and
"Bitter Sweet" and "Katrina," dra
matic poems. Of late years he has do
voted himself almost entirely to maga
zine writing, having in 1870 become
editor of Scribner's Monthly, which
position be held at the time of his
death.
ELECTION,TUESDAY, NOV. 8.
THREE TICKETS.
There are three tickets to vote in
this county at the election next I ues
dav, to wit: one headed "State,' on
which the words State Treasurer, and
the name of the candidate for that of
fice that the voter wishes to vote for,
should be on ; one headed "Judiciary,
on which the words Associate Judge,
and the name of the candidate for that
office that the voter wishes to vote for,
should be on ; and headed ' Coun
tv," on which the words Sheriff, Pro
thonotary, Clerk of Courts, Register
and Recorder, Treasurer, Commission
ers, Auditors aud Coroner, should be
on, with the names of the respective
candidates for those offices that the
voter wishes to vote for.
The words State, Judiciary and
County should be 011 the outside of a
ticket when folding it to vote.
These tickets as printed are all upon
one slip or sheet of paper aud mus>, be
cut into the three parts as above indi
cated. The whole of the county ticket,
being one part, is voted ail together,
Frequently a voter will hand to the
officers of the election by mistake the
whole of a ticket as printed, which
will have to be returned to him to be
separated. By noticing the above the
voter in this county will save trouble
not only to himself but to the election
board.
DUTY TO VOTE.
We have heretofore referred to the
duty of all voters to exercise the great
right of suffrage. It is a privilege
that always shouid be pjjensbed and
never emitted unless for good reason.
Without such reason the neglect to
vote is the fuHure to perform a patriot-
ic duty. Oil next Tuesday a State
Treasurer and uearly ail of t}:f) county
officers for this county are to be chos«a.
We hope therefore that every Republi
can in the county will turn out and go
to the polls on the Bth of November.
Judge SliHrswood's Adventure.
PHILADELPHIA, October 26.—Chief
Justice George Sharswood, of the Su
premo Court of this commonwealth, is
another of the distinguished gentlemen
of this city among whom the confidence
operator calling himself a sou of -Joseph
Drexel, has found his most guileless
captives. The story of his deceiving
was told by the venerable Judge to a
party of friends io Jlarrisburg some
time ago. 'I was strolling down JJroad
way In New York,' the story goes,
'when a well-dressed young man ad
dressed me by some name not my own,
which I do not recall, when I tola hip;
that he was mistaken. Me apologetic
ally said I bore a striking resemblance
to the gentleman be supposed m.e to be,
and he would be grateful if I would
tell him who I was, 1 gave him my
name and he left mc. I had not gone
much further when another gentleman,
youthful, well dressed and of remarka
bly pleasing manners, crossed the side
walk toward me, and, extending his
hand, addressed me by name anil pro
fessed delight to have met me. Hi*
face seemed not unfamiliar, but I could
not recall his name, and he said : 'Ah !
I see you don't remember mc. 1 am
F. A. Drexel, Jr. I have been abroad
so long that you have lost sight of me.
I have been studying art in Paris, and
returned only last week.' He then
asked numerous questions about the
welfare of prominent Philadelpbians,
with whose social standing he seemed
familiar. He conversed interestly on
art matters abroad, mentioning that he.
had been an extensive purchaser fur his
uncle as well as himself. We walked
up town chatting thus pleasantly. At
last he mentioned that he had just re
received a very expensive painting
from Paris, one for which Belmont's
and Yanderbilt's agents had bid against
him, but which he had bought for 50,-
000 francs. 'lt was a very steepprice
and I don't know how father and lru
cle Tony will like it,' he said, lie then
invited me to look at his treasure,
which he said was oiily a block or two
away.
Turning down one of the cross streets,
we came to a handsome brown-stone
house into which we entered after ring
ing the bell. While we stood on the
doorstep my companion told me he had
drawn the grand prize, 11,000 francs,
in a lottery for the benefit of some
Parisian Art Association. The door
was opened by a liveried porter, and
we wire admitted to a saloon-par lor
that seemed turned into an office. Mr.
Drexel introduced himself to the t;cn
tlemauly individual who occupied the
desk, and said that he had brought me,
mentioning my name, to see his fa
mous picture. The individual was
sorry the picture had just been sent to
Philadelphia, and showed tl:e express
receipt in confirmation. Apologizing
my companion made it move as if to
go away, when the gentlemanly indi
vidual, after consultation of what seem
ed a book of entry, said, Mr. Drexel, I
received remittance of your ~grand
prize, 11,000 france, thi.- morniug;
here is the money, and he counted out
what seemed that amount. He then
suggested it would be well to taliu
some tickets in another lottery draw
ing for the benefit of some other art
association. Drexel was willing. He
said he patronized such schemes for
the beuefit of art, and always turned
his prizes over to deserving artists- I
had scruples but he insisted, and I
handed him ten dollars. When t'ley
brought out a numbered chart and
gambling implements 1 saw at once
the whole thing was a trick and de
vice, and repossessed myself of the
$lO which was lying ou the table, and
made my way out without opposition.
The pseudo Drexel came along, and
agreed with nie in my estimate of the
place. I still had confidence in him,
losing it only after suits had been
brought to recover money talsely so
obtained.'

STATE TKEASI'KER.
ZELIENOPLE, Ootober 23th, 1681.
MESSRS. EDITORS CITIZEN:— It affords me
great pleasure to know that von are generous
enough to publish the views of others ou the
political situation of our State, notwithstanding
the fact, that you are not in sympathy with the
motives which calls forth such expressions. All
good citizens will certainly commend your lib
erality and extend to you their sincere thanks.
Let no one fear their own understanding, but
let all read, meditate and judge for themselves.
A good cause courts investigation ; and good
men come out of the fiery furnace to shine
brighter and grow stronger and batter. So far
as 1 aui personally concei'ued, I Tun infinitely
obliged for the opportunity to tell my friends,
through the medium of your columns, why 1
have espoused the cause of Mr. Wolfe, or the
principle of which he is the exponent, In the
first place, I regard Mr. Wolfe as a model man;
as a gentleman ol'honor and integrity; as a man
of Teat moral strength and rcligii us principles;
a<- a man who regards a good name as more pre
cious than rubies. Nine years ago he entered
our State Legislature, a very young man ; not
too young, however, to have implanted within
his breast the f. ar of God and the principles
which enabled hita to discharge his duties tc
his fellow man with fidelity. Being a;young
man of brilliant parts, and unswerving integri
-1 tv, he was soon recognized as a leader in advo
cating correct principles. He was not long in
lh:> presence of the mercenary members ot the
lIotL., 'ere they dHfoyered tie fact tuat they
could expect no ijuarieis i»oj»i ijjfj}- j'ljose
whose ciwsciepee never trouble them ana who
are continually winking at corruption, say Mr.
Wolfe is a very troublesome member of the
Jlouse, never t< ntent unless engaged in a ec.n
jett w i-.h soitis one, Tliey cry out against him
as Klyiuos, the sorpttpM of old did 3g»in#t the
apostles. But lie, like Paul,' 1»1 led with the
lova of God, turned his eyes upon them and
said, "O, full of suUii'y .on;! all mischief, ye
children of the devil, ye ej»et«ic* oi uK light:
eousness, will not vo cease to pervert the
ways of the Lord." The commercial portion of
the" Legislattne regard him as a thorn in the
flesh and would gladly get rid of him, but Un
ion county wisely keeps him at ilarrisburg for
the purport.' of the rascals. It would
be a blessing to our Slate had tc $
men like Wolfe and Mapes in the legislative
hall-. f ,
Y.vcry vote east, every measure advocated,
and every speech ma.de l.v r- V: o]fe whilst on
the legislative forum will bear inspection. ao
man can show a I tetter record th in he, and it is
conceded by the belter classes of ltoth parties
that he has acquitted himself nobly. lie is an
honor to the State, a glory to his native county
and a blessing to his family. He endeared l.im
saij .ill lfti.-jj.-Jt people irrespective of party ;
by the intrepid manlier, in «,nici, 1 '
aiid brought to Justice those miserable riot bi i
bers, Kemble, Petrotf, Rumberger, Crawford
and Co. But imagine the chagrin and mortifi
cation of all law-abiding citizens, when that in
famous sink of iniquity "the Pardon IV-.rd,"
ordered their release. This act caused such a
wave of /nation to rise that the perpetra
tors have been J? Jh? »"««>* oblivion
forever. Rcijuiescat in peace, art<T let ail me
people say, Amen ! Thiti unjust system should
be wiped from our statute book, ad it in a stain
tipou our fair escutcheon. The question arises,
why constitute a few men superior to a'! law ?
Why confer the power upon a few to throw
t(;e doors of our penitentiaries and set ut
liberty orimiuuls viio i.a<i «"ii •••" •! ••nd con
victed before a proper tribunal ot eiiu'u' »•><• ju
ry? This abominable system is n disgrace to
any civilized community. To instance a ease
iu our own county. A few years since, Adling
ton murdered or sneakingly assassinated Cun
ningham &Teeplesin PortersviMe. He was tried
4x Bugler, ami convicted of murder in the first
Icgree. Ills counsel applied for. ?sr»d obtained
a new trial, when lie was convfittu'l' ot ifturqer
in the second degree. The Judge sentenced him
twenty-four years to the Western Penitentiary.
At the expiration oj four years this "Board of
Pardons" stopped tlie wheels of ju-tic *, ordered
,i,., 4<jor of the penitentiary open, and told Mr.
Arlington y} »»«.(, jntxj freedom, with his hands
recking in the Woou of tyo of Lis br
ings. All decent citizens' will adm'f, that fo
acquit the guilty, is as equal an ebomication
as the innocert. But pardon the tli
. gression. To levuii *o .dr. Wolic. He has an
nounced himself a candidate i'oi th? oftiee of
State Trea-urer, not tiiat he desires the otft-*>,
or that i.u was nn aspirent thereto ; li.it because
he was so thoroughly disgusted with the arro
gant manner in which the boss**.: foisted Mr.
Bally upon the people. The convention was
packed in the interest of Baily, because he did
the bidding of his npisieps, Cgnjeron, Quay and
Co. It is a well known fact, that Nfr. A'idrciv
Stewart, of Payette countv, a trne, iiijsv.ei
Republican, was a ci-ndldato for State Treasur
er i:i 187 >, but was defeitu* Iby Mr. Itawle, of
Erie. Mr. Stewart was a delegate to the nation
al convention which convened in Cincinnati in
lio was instructed for the Hon. James
<;. Blaiuv ini Pie?idaut, in the convention
adhered to his instruction? tb«, protest
of Boss Mr. Baily was a "delegate
the eoitvenilnn ut Chicago, from Fayette, in
IBSO, and was also Insi-i'iicfed for Blaine for
President, but betrayed the in,-i in
him, by voting with the third termers, for
Gen. Grant. This fact iu itself is a sufficient
felegit fijr voting agiinst Mr. Baily. As soon
as it was kipwa Mr. Andrew Stewart, a
true Republican, who did nui Ijctray his con
stituency, but carried out their ihsirifCuoii?,
had niniotMUifd hiinse|f as a candidate for Stale
Treasurer, it H « a 'd I'amcron sent for Mr.
Baily who was so pliable i}t Chipajro in doing
his bidding, and after iu#iv (.'•nt'.ieUua -Mr.
li,li!y returned home and announced himsfclt
for tiio position.
It is very evl<txnt to any thinking man that
Mr. Stewart would not s„it th l ' Boss; as he
was independent enought to carry 041 his in
strjAtioqs against Mr. Cameron's dictations.
Whilst it is pjst as apparent that Mr. Baily was
chosen 011 account of (lis obedience to the Boss
en request. I -speak that which I kijotf when
I assert, thut tha State convention a> Harris
burg, was packed lit lb" iniel't'st of Cameron's
man, fo the »'<elusion of all ot! "r«. In Hoaver
county a contemptible trick was perpetrated by
the chairman of the county committee. Four
men war? placed in nomination as delegates to
the State eonvtti.tjorj. U;v>n the first ballot'be
ing taken, the cliair iiMuomjeed that but one
gentleman had been etc, ted, wi.il v t the fact
was, two were fairly and honestly elected, one
by quite a majority, the other, Mr. Mnrshnll,
by a majority of two, ivhich wis as goo 1 as fif
ty. Notwithing this la-L-< the chair ordered
another ballot, when Mr. James .Mr.
Marshall'iJ canipetitor, said he would resign.
But tliis most rlifht.'oaM ail I i"st chair persist,
ed in keejiing ilr. Mann in the field and declar
ed him elected by a majority of one on secmd
ballot, one less ihan Xlr. Marshall had. Mr,
Mashall carried his case up to the '.'rent con
clave at Harrisburg, where he submitted his
credentials, to a committee on credentials com
posed of lb" same material as the Beaver comi
ty chairmen, 'if course, Mr. Marshall's
claims were ignomd. 'n;<« i; only one ot nu
merons'casss of snhtarfuge and fet»wvni?T '''-ing
resorted to, in order to pack the nonvun'ioo li,

MR. T. W. PHILLIPS, THE lir.soM FRIF.XP OF!
GARFIELD, DECLARES FOE CHARLES S.
WOLFE, A.VI) MAKES A PASSIONATE
APPEAL TO HIS FELLOW
REPUBLICAN'S.
To the Edilort of the Pittsburgh Dispatch :
In a time like this, when the Republican p.nr
tv of the State is stirred to its depths, and the
Nation pauses in the face of its great sorrow,
should not every Republican consider well the
ground 011 whsch he stauds ? Many good Re
publicans are 'HI a straight betwixt two,' anx
iously asking what is our duty iu the emergen
cy which is upon u . Shall we remain in the
present party organization and h ittle for the
supremacy of the Rosses or join with the Hon.
Charles S*. Wolfe to overthrow Bo»s rule with
its bribcrv and corruption, and thus purify and
redeem the party? Shall we go 011 in sin with
unprincipled leaders or call a higher type of
manhood to the front? These are questions
which press for answer. To some it looks like
choosing net ween defeat and disaster. >lany
politicians are standing cn slippery places
feeling that it is tUiit'jrritu* to be kif*. iionie
wish to save themselves; some the party; others
the Bosses. It looks like a time when he who
would try to save bis political life might lose
it, and he who would lose his life might find it.
[ Live or die, should we not strike for the right,
and do it now? One thing we know will re-
I wain- -o.jr rijht of citi 'er.: hin. Jhis "AR nere:
t be destroyed by another.
Pardon a personal remark, for I wish to say
that lam 11 Republican. My first vote was
oast for Fremont and my last one for the firice
immortal dead. In the" intervening period of
time I have voted for every Republican Pre*i
denj, nil the Rrepublican Governors of onr
i«iatv, aud tor tainor ortscers huva voted the
same ticket; rarely 'dotting an I or scratching
a t.' But now, prompted by affection for the
dead, and a desire for the greatest good of the
living, I wish to record my vote for Charles S.
Wolfe.
IJ.o dotjV't it has become apparent pi pfety
man who has surveyed the field that a Repub
lican Treasurer will not be elected in Pennsyl
vania 'his fall by Republican votes; yet the
Republican* are in tht; majority in this S»Uue,
and have been. The question may now be
squarely put: Is there any just cause fof this
condition of the Republican party? To enter
into all the causes which have led to the present
result, even if i were competent to do so, would
be vastly more than the limit of this paper
would allow. Ko f hill I£Q into the history of
the recent State Conveiuiol), which HOiuinited
Mr. Baily with its thorough and complete
Stalwart triumph. Nor will 1 here inquire
•vhpther tlie terrible event of J fly 2 influenced
in anv degree its tibiiiiuiilioii, but will eon 11 ne
myself to some statements iu regard to Wolfe,
the Bosses and the Republican party.
It seems to me that any man who is at all
posted in Pennsylvania politics will concede
the fact that the great majority of ltcpublicans
nr • o"t to Boss rule and all i!s attendant
evils' ' Wl'ile this, is true, 11 will be conceded
that the Ilo.ses have the machinery of the
party, aud heretofore have proceeded to grind
out votes to suit tholr selfish, and sometimes
vicious, ends. They have placed in nomina
tion tlie obscure, the unknown, the incompe
tent, the corrupt, and then not onlv asked but
demanded loyal votes, and purchased others
\,ifb ft ; err.ij.tion fond drawn in taxes from
tlie people.
Now, as a protest against this misrule, and
to expose all this aud more, Mr. Wolfe, as a
true and tried Republican, presents himself as
a candidate for State Treasurer. I know Mr.
Wolfe personally and well. While his meth
ods may not always have been yours or mine,
liia nei|4 Jic; beer, rirjh*. n nc°, alon« with
liiin, we we pa talking over ti.e pi»st and tbc. is
sues of the battle then pending. I baid to hiui,
'Mr. Wolfe, while I appreciate your justice, I
cannot say so much with regard to your mercy.'
Tears welled in his eyes when lie said that I
did not know him. How could I but esteem
him when I saw he had a heart to feel mercy
« «<-ll Ma '."'II to execute iustice? Before
this 1 hail Unovil nun Oiiiepy Uio fearless
rebtfker of sin in high places. llu is » good
man, a scholar, a lawyer of note, and a pure
legislator. He is a man of integrity, honor and
abilitv—one who 'fears God and works right
eousness.' believing that 'righteousness exalts a
nation and sin is a -reproach to any pe.iple.'
While lie I:< 1.1 tl;a Bosses ct !fr,rrifburjs,
as Paul did the wil l beasts at Knnesas, he lias
a tender and .sympathetic'nature, evtr willing
to forgive a wrong or acknowledge a fault,
i here i» no man iu our politics to day to whom
i!iii State owes so iij.ieh. lie has saved it
•pillions in njonej-. »<<<! uivc; it c priceless ex
ample In moiVl heroism wlikh will always ce
-1:1am unmeasured by riicney itjia unobliterated
by time.
Around this r»an true Republicans are asked
to rally, to reform the party and rebuke the
Bosses. But what have the Bosses done that
thev should be repi >ved ? Rather ask what
haye J-hoy tjQt ilone. They have adopted and
are enforcing tiie ttpoils whii.li has en
gulfed the mightiest nations of preceding
times. They elevate men to power without
regard to character or qualifications. They
punish those who oppose their corrupt methods
without remorse, thus reversing the ord-r ol
jnsiiip* .nit} right by rewarding the innocent.
Ylie startlvui ot the £ttest i u their dread. They
dwarf the heads and Warts of .s(,aitsu.eii as the
Chinese do their feet. No man of promise has
permitted to grow untrammejed) unshack

years. Out of of people ve hays not

to us the breath of life that we may now break

Rcptjblieaiip, ho\y tyere yoq Ijound e r tid why

It was by the assassination of our sovereign—
tht> o ;I 7/ 'if !h e P*oj>fe. A golden dagger has
gone to the hekrl •}»' oi;r sovereign over and
over again, and the will of the peojite has fallen
on the right hand and the left in almost every
city, county and precinct in the State. Still
yo;v..', this is done by a weapon wrenched from
your own hands by aorrupt legislation and the
spoils systeuj. Crom the repeal of the tonnage
tax until the attempted enforcement of the riot
claims, the records ofthe Pennsylvania Legis

foulest history. pur hard-won earn I lies have
hypsi wrung from you in nof all for your

bribery, corruption and fraud.
But it may be said that they ire generous
fellows, Yes, generous while debauching voters
iu every part ofthe State generous by putting
a price 011 citizenship and selling this sacred
legaof to the highest bidder! Generous by
robbing you and rewarding those who purchase
illegitimate votes with your money! Point me
to a noble, self-sacrificing Boss who has become
poor —spending and being spoilt for tlie good of
il;e State. Some of them have grown gray in
sin and arp hardened in iniquity, but noue

It is safe to »ay that they have perpetuated
their domination by bribery, by fraud, by pub
lic plunder, by purchasing tho brightest of
American citizens, by corrupting all tin- foun
tains of political life, with but little regard for
the people's wants or woes.
What has Boss legislation done for our State,

Let no one cry 'peace, peace, when there is

The conflict between the people and the Bosses
is irrepressible. The spoils system of the Boss

freedom and slavery could flourish ou the same

XF.W CASTLE, PA., October 24.
Dsiriri Davis.
The Judge is the sort of man of
whom stories are sure to be told. The
bars of Illinois and Indiana have end?
less anecdotes of him as lawyer and
magistrate. J)uring the campaign of
IStfO his whole heart was engaged in
the cause of Lincoln's candidacy, and
his mind was apt to wander in that di
rection even while he was 011 the bench.
It is said on one occasion, when a
ptusy attorney na e darKpning t.;ounsei
with much language, that the Judge
went off into the realms of conjecture
about the size of the vote that Douglas
would get. The lawyer happened to
say: 'And now, your Honor, the mat
ter rests iu this state.' The last word
roused the Judge from bi» reverie.
«l1!1 thinking of the Little Giaut, he
cried, 'State! State! he won't carry a
couuty.' After his translation to the
Supreme Bench the added dignity was
not enough to quench wholly the fire
or his teiapeianient. lie relates him
self a whimsical story of his first day
on the bench. He was (juite impress
ed with the importance of his functions
and listened with all his ears to what
was going on. A young lawyer wa»
uiafiiug iyhat oyr woulcj
call''a halcyon and vociferous' speech.
After the harangue had lasted for an
hour, Judge Grier, who sat next to
Davis, turned as if to speak to him.
Davis inclined his head, expecting to
bear some jirofound observation on the
law of the case. The venerable Grier
whispered,'!)—that fellow ! he makes
such a row I can't sleep !' Judge Da
vis soon got to be very much at home
on the bench, and especially enjoyed
his circuits in his old field of work in
the West He was greatly iiked by
flip bar, though he had an eye like a
hawk for any manifestation pf moan-;
ness or greed. It is related that oq
ope occasion in Indiana, when a cer
tain case was called, one of the parties
asked for a continuance, as his counsel
was absent. The lawyer on the other
side demanded an immediate hearing.
Davis looked at him with a dangerous
simile aud said, 'Very well' my friend,
wc'jl go on if you saj- so, but I ought
to tell you that in such cases I always
think it ray duty to look out for the
side that is not represented by coun
sel. We had a case of that sort in
Terre Haute the other day; when a
man insisted on going on when the
other side wasn't there, and, singular
»s it may seem, we beat that fellow. 1
