: Concerning the Defeat of President
Harrison,
EprTor STAR: —There are a great many
different opinions given in regard to the
causes of the defeat of the Republican
party. at the late election. I have no
doubt that the canses are qgunite numer-
ous. Some appear to think that the
‘Homestead strike’ bad something to do
with it, but T can not see that the girike

doubt that things that happened while the
strike was going on had some effect.
For instance. the treatment that Private
‘Tama received at the hands of Col. Streat-
er and the sanctioning of it by the courts
of Allegheny conntv, Pa.. had the effect
to cause a great many voters throughout
the United States to come to the conclu-

From experience and observation I know
that no man, in any position is more hon-

ment for every imaginary breach of dis-
cipline or mistake ‘that one of his men
wonld make. A slight repremand was
all that was necessary. :
On the other hand, an excitable, ill-na-
tured, narrow-minded officer that was al-
ways ready and willing to inflict the se-
vercst corporal punishment on his men
for every mistake they might make, in-
variably came to grief. sooner or later.
He wonld soon be without a friend in
his entire command. His men would
naturally hate him and would do noth:
ing for Him. except what they were com-
pelled to do, and it would go from bad
to worse. In some instances he wonld
see that he was not master of the situa-
tion and would resign. Others would
try and fight it out and wonld hang on
too long, and sometimes in the next en-
gagemerit one of their own men wonld
kill them. which wonld be the end of it
From experience, I am satisfied in my
own mind that corporal punishment is
all wrong and should he aholished. 1
do not think that I am naturally a cow-
ard. I had a great deal to do with all
kinds of men. I have been on public
works where T had several hundred men
under my command at one time. and oft-
en times the very roughest kind of men;
but there never was a time that I had
reason 10 he afraid af any man doing me
bodily harm. But if ‘I were a military
officer. and wonld hang up one of my
men by the thumbs until he became un-
conscious, and then take him down and
shave one side of his head and face, and
then let him go without killing him, . I
would then begin to feel that I had better’
make peace with my God. 1 would feel
pretty confident that the first opporinni-
ty he got he wonld make an angel of me.
And if I ever did happen to cross his
path, and he wouldn’t at least try to as:
sassinate me, 1 wonld feel like stringing
him up again and shaving the other side
of his head and face for being a fool.

Mr, Carleton, Aged 88, Was Ready, .
Thirteen years ago Mr. Carleton bought
in Buffalo the pine lumber for his coffin,
kept it seasoning in his own house for
three years, and then brought it to War-
saw for the coffin to he made immediate-
ly. It was 7 teet 4 inches long, ashe
wished it to be “roomy and comforiable,”
painted white inside and black outside,
It was Mr. Carleton’s intention to take
the coffin home, in ordef that it might be
“handy” when required. but his wife de-
murring fo this, it remained in Lawrence's
undertaking rooms during the last ten
years. The remains of the eccentric’ man
were placed in it on Tuesday.
At the sume time the order was given
for the coffin, in October, 1882, Mr, Carle-
ton also contracted with Hugh Curry to
dig for him, when required. a wide. deep
grave, to be laid up with brick; and with
John Hanigan for a tombstone in. the
shape of a miniature house with windows,
doors and chimneys, and over the front
door the words, “Home, Sweet Home.”
The monument was constructed and has
ever since heen in Mr. Hanigan’s marble
warehouse. Monday Mr. Curry went to
Carleton Hill, in Middlebury, and made
the grave according to contract and Mr.
Hanigan will soon place the monument
at its head.—Cor. Buffalo Courier.
