Dorsey in No Danger.

Bowen, who used to be aii Arkansas politician, but is now a wealthy resident of Colorado, pronounces Dorsey, whom he knew in the Arkansas days, one of the smartest politicians in the United States. “I can say that with sincerity, because he' beat me for the United States Senate when he had been at Little Rock only a few weeks. If was in the declining days of the Republican party, when the Democrats, under Garland, had a considerable showipg in the Legislature. My competitor and myself were afraid to have a caucus, so we met and fought it in the open Legislature. Dorsey suddenly appeared, and in almost the twinkling of an eye he beat us both. Any man who sets Dorsey down for a fool is condemning himself for one. He did the work in of Indiana, from the beginning to the end. Though he did not know anything about the State, he just divided it up into townships and earned it. Do you suppose that such a man as that is going to be driven to the wall by a Republican administration ? Nothing of the kind.. It is not in politics nor gratitude to destroy a man as useful as that.” Of course, no one supposes that Dorsey will ever see the inside of a penitentiary upon compulsion. This not to be the fate of the savior of Indiana and the Secretary of the National Republican Committee. He would not have been pressed to this state by Garfield, nor will he be by Arthur. Nothing short of a total change of administration, party as well as personal, will ever secure the punishment of serviceable rogues. Dorsey is not in any danger.
