A VOTE BROUGHT ON A WAR
TUB IMPORTANCE OP VOTING IS THUS EMPHASIZED. The Republicans Are I'ains Everr Effort to Capture t'onjtre-One Tote Cast In TliU State In lSIt Wan of Snch Later Importance That It Caused the War with Mexico. The republicans have practically confessed that they have nn hopes of carrying the state except by resort ta the old devices of boodlin and fraud, which they have 50 long1 employed in Indiana. They are flooding tha state with money and are glvng out instructions as to the manner In -which It is to be used. "Trusted men" are being called to headquarters from all parti of the state. "While in Indianapolis they are supplied with tha "necessary funds." as Dudley would say. and sent back to do their allotted work part In the "work of corrupting the state. The $50,000 given by Count Pullman has already been place! and more La being gathered in from all sources that can be worked. A special appeal has been sent out to the republicans all over the state asking small contributions. Of course this Is but a blind. The indentions cf the managers is to dweive peopla into the belle that they are poor, whereas the fact is that they have money to throw at the birds, and ara using It lavishly in all directions. The republican plan of campaign now is to buy the state if poible. Fighting: for Congress. The Harrison managers ara now making most of their fight to capture congressional districts. This Is not because they hope tD get any legislation. They have no thought of th3t. Indeed they have officially declared that they have no congressional program. But by so d Ane; they expect to carry the next presidential election. There is a strong probability that the next election of pivsijtr.t will 1-e by the house of representatives. In which it requires no: a majority of members, but a majority of the states to elect. In Indiana th-3 republicans hope to get seven representatives giving them the stated vote in a presidential election in the house. For this sami reason democracy should absolutely refuse to scratch their candidate for congress this year. A vote against a democratic candidate for congress may not only cause the l-vs of the house this year, but tha loss f the presidency in 1S36. Each democrat should bear In mind that his individual vote may control the destiny of the nation as it did in 1S44. In that year one Indiana v.te in Switzerland county cut a tremendous figure in national affairs. The story is doubtless familiar to many of Th? Sentinel's readers, but it will bear repetition. Daniel Kelso was the democratic candidate for state senator in Switzerland. David Henry was thi whig candidate. The democrats were In the minority in th county. At the term of court preceding the election a young nun was indicted for shooting to kill a. false friend, who had ba.e:bftrayed hint in a love affair, and siusht ta ruin his- reputation by slanderous reports. Kelso defended the young man. He secured the acquittal of hi3 client, who, although p. vir in purs. w.s rich in gratitude, anil who promised that he would span no pain.? to rc-piy the generous attorney f-r the valuable services i , . ... nan renne e.i mm. Rut when, election day came arming thi young man was bedridden with a dangerous fever. H i determined, h nvevt-r, to go to the pol-'i and vote for the man who liad saved h.ni from the penalty of his unlawful aci. Medical protects and parental objections were alike unavailing. It was tw milts to the voting plate, but tho sick man could not be deterred from undertaking to reach the polls, and late in the day his friends viel lev! tr his persistent rciii:. The bed, with the pleading patient, was placed on the wagon and driven to the polls. Unable to leave his bed, the ticket was taken from his trembling hand and deposited in the ballot box before the watchful eyes of the wearied voter und then his attendants hurried him hn:k home. Diu the seal of death was on brow and that night his spirit passed away. When the votes were counted to ascertain the result cf the election it was foun-1 that Kelso had been victorious by one majority. The sacrifice th ymrg man had made to cast his vote had not been in vain. He had given his life for the effort, but Kelso had been elected by that cne vote, and n singular coincidence of important events started n their strange course. Kelso took his seat in the senate of his Ftate. and it became the duty of that legislature to fleet a L'nited States senator. The democras had a meager maj irity of the two branches of the legislature. Tllman A. Howard and Oliver Smith were the candidates. The latter was sure of his election, for his party was in the majority. But to the surprise and the indignation of the democrats, Kel.-o announced his determination to never vote for Smi.h tinder any consi deration. He refused to be bound by the rules f the caucus, but proclaimed his fealty to his party, and asserted that he was ready to vote for any other demo-rat that might be- named, but for Smith never. He succeeded in getting another member named Hoover to stand with him. For many days and weeks the weary voting wen: on as required by Ir.w. Each report of the ballot showed: Howard, 71; Smith. "4. and Hannigan, 2. The senate was at that time, as now, composed of fifty members and th? house of 1"0. making seventy-ix the m-cessiry number of votes to elect, but which number neither of the anxious aspirants were able to secure. Edward A. Hannigan was a brilliant young man and Kelso selected him as his candidate, without the favorite's kn nvlede or consent, in the beginning of the prolonged contest. Every effort to bring Kelso over to the domo -ratie cau-uJ nomine? only strengthened his stubtwrnn.-s. Day after day he continued to cast his votr? for Hannigan and stand as an immovable barrier between Smith and the coveted senatorial prir.e. At the last he pronounced his ultimatum and announced that the tiresome farc- of daily voting in the .anie manneslioull ceace, or he would cat his vo.e and break the existing deadlock. His resolution reconvened the democratic caucus, and Kelso aro-?-. and dlievred "ne of his flaming arguments in favor of his f-iend Hannigan. and by his persuasive powers, as well as his stubborn opposition to Smith, succeeded in getting the seventy-four members to come to the stipp rt f Hannigan, who warf duly e!e-:ed United States senat r the ensuing day. The following year a fierce coniroversytook place in the senate of 1he United States over the admission of Texa into the union. Her admission wa3 finally secured by one vote, and that vote was th vote ri Edward A. Hannigan of Indiana. Smith declared that he would have voted agalr.st the admission of the "Lone Star" state if he had been chosen In the place of Hannigan. and thus, the one vote that had ben c.Hst for the Hon. Mr. Kelso, among the wooded hilts of Switzerland county by the dying voter led up to the admission of Texa? Into the uni m and th making of many illustrious fields of battl. on which the valor of American soldier were displayed In dazzling brilliancy to an astonished world by the splendor of their wonderful military achievements. Importance of A Voir. The value and Importance of a single vote was never mire fully displayed In the history of elections, and never has an individual ballot been followed by greater or grander results than are shown to have emanated from that one vote cast at the sacrifice of a human life at
. the little voting precinct In the remote ! corner of one of the mallest counties In
the state. This little bit of history carries it.) own moral with i:. It ought to impress each democrat with hU individual responsibility for the future welfare of the land, when he goes ta the poll?. By voting against hl3 congressman he may, by that one ac:, not only defeat the congressman, but also drive his party from power in tha nation for many years to come. The importance of a vote for a legislative candidate is also readily appreciated as a result of this illustration. It would be very easily possible for a single vote for state senat ar this year to control the election of a United S.ates senator two years hence, as it did in 1844. for the J ftate senators chosen this year will hold over and vote for a United States senator In 1S97. ALASKA'S A ULI' IlRAIt. "Worthy Cousin of the tJrlntly and More iVrorlnon Thnn lie Xow I. The northern sLde of the Kenal peninsula, bordering the shores cf Cook's Inlet, Kodlak island, and the Alsakan peninsula, as far westward as Unlmak Island, Ls the habitat of the Alaskan brown bear (ursus RIchardsonil), a huge, shaggy animal, varying in length from six to twelve feet, and weighing from 800 to 1,500 pounds. This bear possesses all the courage and fierceness of h'.a southern cousin, the grizzly, and he has been hunted so littl as yet that he is absolutely fearless of man, and is an exceedingly dangerous adversary. The island of Kodlak, being more settled than the other localities mentioned, Is less favorable as a hunting ground for the j sportsman th3n the wilder regions ad jacent. This is especially true of the eastern and wooded end of the island. On the west the country ls more open, and on that account seems to ba preferred by the bear. There is still good snort to be had lti certain localities hereabout, and native guides can always be obtained at the villages situated on the shores of the bays or on the banks of the salmon streams in this vicinity. Feiner an expert fisher, the bear frequents, during the salmon season, all the rivers emptying into Bering sea aid the North Pacific and their tributaries as far as the fish go. After the salnvyi run is over the animal retreats into the recesses of the hills, where berries and small game are plentiful. The brown bear is the great road maker of this nart of Alaska. Not onlv are the i banks of the streams trodden into good trails by the huge lumbering orutes, but the swampy plains are crossed In every direction by paths leading to the hills. The traveler will do well to follow them in his journeying across the country, as they invariably lead to the best fording places of streams and form the easiest routes to the hills. The northern limit of the brown bear's habitat is, as yet. undetermined, but I have seen them Jn the interior as far as latitude 67 deg., and ;hey probably range still further. My lirst encounter with one of these animals was a starting experience for me, and I have always thought equally so for the "bear. We had been working up against the strong current of the Koowak river all day. and toward nightfall pitched our tent at the base of a high bluff forming th2 right bank of the stream. While supper was being prepared I climbed the bluff to get a look at the country, rnd was walking leisurely along with my gun carelessly held in iny left hand. The top of the bluff was densely covered almost to the edge with spruce and alders, and the undergrovth was so thick that it was 1m possible to see more than a fewfeet throuarh it. Ahead of me a cluster of rocks offered a temporary place to sit down and enjov the view, and I made for it. Just as I reached the nearest rock a tremendous -.haggy animal aroe apparently from und?r my feet, and I immediately recognized in him the brown bear, of whose fierceness the natives had b- en telling me for weeks. My first Instinct was to shoot, and I probably would have don so bad my gam been in my right hand, but the first motion I made the bear reared on his haunches and was pi) formidable-looking that I concluded to wait and see what he intended doing. After a moment's hesitation, during which he turned his h?ad from side to side and licked his chops in a most sugFf.stivo fashion, hr1 droppel on all four., and with wonderful quickness turned and sprang out of sight in the dense undergrowth. When I returned to camp and related my experience Ts h-tah-rok. my native guide, assured me that the bear must h-tve rftvntly wnoluued. a heavy meal, as otherwise he would have most -certainly at'iH.ked me. ' The' mainland of Alaska adjacent ta the island of I'nga is full of brown bear, and. although somewhat smaller than those found on the west side of Cook's inlet, they are sufficiently lierce and aggressive. Some officers from one of the vessels of the Hering sea ileet went ash're at Herendeen bay during the summer of 1S91 on a dw hunt, and one of the party saw a bear about 1) yards distant eating berries. Without a thought of the consequences he .raised his gun and fir?d at the animal. The shot went wide of the mark, but at the report of the gun the bear started for the hunter on a dead run. His charge was met by a. .shower of bullets from the officer's repeater, but although hxdly wounded the infuriated brute did not hesitate an instant, but rushed straight at his enemy. When within about ten feet of tha hunter the bear rose on his haunches and prepared to "lo-?. Blood was pouring in streams down his bly. One bullet hid shattered his jpper jaw. but he was till so full of fight that the outcome of the struggle wou'.d hive been extremely doubtful hid not another of the pirty arrived and ended the right by shooting the brute through the brain. An examination nf the bear's body showed that it had been struck six times. Three of the shots w-re In part3 of the body ordinarily considered vital and would doubtless have caused death: but the vitality of these animals is almost incredible, instances having been cited of their running over 10.1 yards after being shot through the heart. One of the best places in Alaska to find the brown bear is in the vicinity of Portage bay. ten or twelve imiles across Ung strait from Sind Point. Last summer while I was at Sand Point two hunters came in after an absence of little over a month in the vicinity of Portage bay and reported having killed thirty-three bear?. One day they killed seven. In order to show that they were n : spinning hunters" yarns they brought the skins with them and sold them at the trading p dnt at Sand Point. In dealing with the Alaskan brown bear a hunter should never go alone. A companion Is as almost essentia! as a gun. If possible a man well acquainted with the peculiar habits of this animil shom'.d be engiged to act as guide. (Jeod bear dogs would be of great assistance, but wou'.d have to b? brought into the co'intry by the hunter, as there are very few dogs here. There are no trees as far west as Portaga bay, and the hunter mut be exceedingly c ireful how he enters the heavy thickets which cover the river bottoms, e.s the bears favor this kind of ground, and if arou?ed or wounded will unhesitatingly attack. During the summer of 1S01 two prospectors were looking for coal lands nar Port Moller, and about a mile from the shore they came upon an Immense brown be.ir engaged !n catching salmon from a small stre:; m. One of the prospectors immediately opened fire and evidently wounded th brute bardly. Put It got out of sight in the th' k brush. Being anxious to secure the skin the two men started to follow the wounded animal. Th?y h-ad not gone a dozn Pteps ix-fo-re the enraged and wounded brute turned on them, and before either one could lire a shot seized on man by the leg and bit It nearly off, and then sprang on his companion and knocked him senseless with a blow of his terrible paw. Having, as he thought, finished his enemies, the bear quietly ambled off, and was subsequently found dead a few hundred yards from the scene of battle. Seattle Telegraph.
SOME JAPANESE PROVERB
SAVIc;S OK TUB EAST COMPAUKI WITH THOSE OF THE WEST. Diftr II ut Id Ute from Ihr Canned Wisdom of Other Connlrle UeinnrUaiblr Itesemhlii nee nf .lapnnene Proverb to Iliblical Sa In The Fiith Story Upl. mixed. The very first of the popular sayings in Ota Masayoshl'a collection reminds one of an English adage. "Fortune favors the brave" evidently conveys the same hint of encouragement as the Japanese "Fortune will call at the smiling gate." But the Oriental proverb is even nearer to the fancy which underlies that mediaeval story about Virgil to the effect that he cast an enchantment upon a certain gate in his beloved city of Naples, so that all who entered at one sid3, where there was a sculptured face, "all Jocund and smiling, prospered in their business, while those who passed beneath the frowning face at the opposite side were doomed to the worst of disasters. "Fortune's wheel revolves," ay the Japanese, showing that the fickle goddess might be pictured a she is in the West. Shakspeare's line, "And giddy Fortune's furious fickle wheel" would be as readily understood in the land of the Mikado as in Europe. The wheel means the same thing In the East as in the West; a Japanese counterpart of the Welsh Fluellen might dwell on "the moral of it, that she is turning and inconstant, and mutability, and variation." Another Japanese saying, "Secret charity opens the vestibule of fortune," expresses an idea that is found also in certain familiar 'injunctions of scripture. The biblical phrase is even more closely met in another Japanese adage, "Secret virtue shall be rewarded openly." The widow's mite has become proverbial. The Japanese inculcate the same truth in th2 sentence, "The one candle of the poor is equal to ten thousand lamps of the rich man." The injunction, "Lend, hoping forno:h- .' again," may be compared with "Do a kindness, but expect no reward." In tho sermon on the Mount it is said, "If the light that is in thee bo darkness, how great is that darkness." So the Japanese have it that "If the mind is clear, even in a dark room, there will te radiance; if the thought is dark, at nonday there will be demons." Of the blind leading the blind, the Japanese say that "All will fall into the fire-hole." A lesson of common life is embodied in the English phrase, "Even the worm will turn," meaning that the most helpless creature will, in extremity, fight for its life. Shakspcare put the thought more eloquently in the verses: So cowards fight when they can fly no further. So doves do peck the falcon's piercing talons. The Japanese express the same idea in varbus ways. Sometimes they say that if you give a rat a chance he will rival the tiger. In extremity tbey add: "The bird will peck, th. baast will spring, the man will lie." That the man who is down has no fear of fallinsr i3 as obvious t: the Japanese as to other peoples. They say that "Th? naked body has nothing ta lose." or that those who are lying down never fail, or that beggars have no f?ar of bankruptcy. Yet they have other proverbs whieh illustrate the fact that th? utmost misery has untried depths. Thus they may express themselves almost in the f arm of a parable concerning onewha, without a shelter in the world, took refuft imder tree boughs. "Put the dew fell." they add, by way of suggesting the miral. "Even in the broad world." runs another aphorism, "the sparrow may be without lunch." We say that a living dog is better than a dead lian. They make the same comparison between a living pauper and a dead millionaire. "Hear both side3 before judging." has a clasj parallel in the popular lore of the West. "The deeprooted tree need not fear the wind," suggest3 Mrs. Thralo's couplet: The tree of deepest root Is found Least willing still to quit the irrmind. Th? Japanese are aware that the longest way around i often the sh r test way home, for they say, "If you want t hurry up go around." They know how h:rd it is for truth ta overtake error. "Scandll." th?y ?ar, "will travel a thiu.tr.d miles, but pood report may not leave the gate." One may wear out hij welcome in Japan, as in oth-r countries, and so th? peopl? .ay that "There is n cordiality for the toa frequent visitor." That one cannot touch pitch without being defiled. th"y express in the sntenca, "Approach ton near t o ink; you will b? dyed with it." "In Rom?. d as Romans do," has an exact counterpart in their lor?. Si has th; caution "Valls have ears," to wh'eh they add that doors have eyes. The Greeks explained with a fabl? the penalty of unthrift. Fal 1? and m ral are told in a line by the Japanese when they say that "Summer insects are unacquainted with snow." A wis Greek said: "Call no man happy until he Is dead," and th Japanese have it that one's career is n t finished until the lid is on one's cofTin. Among the maxims of th? Egyptian Ptah-Hotep, m st antique of authors, was this: "Despise not thy neighbor, who is as thou wast, but tre.it him as thy ciiu!." Somewhat similar is th Japines.? ciutiui against arrogance: "What is today your neighbor's li.t ! .morrow may be your own." The Arabs illustrate the misfortunes of fine who allows himself to be deprived of his rights by the example of the man who was crowded out of his tent y his camel. The Japanese have the same 'thought irh the expression. "II? who has the shelter of your eaves will claim your dwelling." A famous medical trcaliso of the middle ages, issued fr.:aa the school of Salerno, began with the grim assuran'-e that death is incurable. The Japanese deemed the fact worthy of their b:v, "After deaith no medicine." say they, and aa;ain, "There is rescue from all but death." Th? vox ijopuli vox D?i of the We?t meets its like in Japan, where "the people's mind" is said to le "Heaven's mind." The spilled milk of the English and American rustic phrase ln-cimi s spilled water in the Japanese proverb. P.oor Richard sus-ested modesty by hinting thait little boats should keep near the sh ire. The Japanese imply as much by remarking: "For a small vessel use small sail." "Handsome ls thai. handsome dots" becomes with them "Good behavior obliterates ugliness." Corresponding to the English saying that '!.?auty is only j?kin deep," they say, "Beauty is only one layer." For "Enough is as good as a feast" they offer the contrast. "Tiki much is as bad as not enough." "Iivo me little, love me long" suggests the thou cht which the Japanese put in this form. "After excessive loving ls hatred a thous:ir.d-f!d." A stranger at hand, they say, is better ihm a relative afar off. They have epi: .raized all fish storie3 in the phrase, "Th? fish which f scapes frcm th hook -is always the largest," and have put in a nutshell a whole philosophy with the command, "If there is anything disagreeable to do do it tomorrow."

EPORTS. CHICAGO. Oct. 29 The wheat mirket was ta all appearances sustained today by firmness in corn. Wet weather caused th- strength in th? latter. Wheat is unchanged in price at th end. but it averaged lower for th? day. Cam Is ic h.gher for May. 7ic higher for October and Nevemb.-r and lc higher fer December. Provisions are sliglatly higher and otts i,ic higher. Wheat was wanted for a few moments at th? opening at a shade over Stturday's closing price, but the demand was quickly supplanted by a pressure ta sell. December, which closed on Smirday at 52 Vic bid, sold at the start at from 52Vifa' :2ic and May, which wound up last week at BC'toTc, opened with buyr3 at from 567ic up to 57e. As th? result of an hour's trading December declined ta SlfiSl-BC. and May to 5C3Gr-;c. The shart-lived firmness at the stirt was chiefly due ta bullish feeling in th? corn market, but a3 the cauie of the strength In corn should really have had an opposite effect on wheat, seeing that it was because of the rain, and rain was badly needed fer th? lately sown wheat, the latter market soon went on th? downward course indicated by th? quotations. Th: foreign markets were all firmer at the opening with th? exception of Liverpool, which op?ned wesk. Ceerbahni's reported an increase of 52) bushel in the quantity on passage during the week. Minneapolis and Duluth receipts were 1,351 carloads, compared with 1,773 cars 0:1 th? corresponding day of last yeir. I5u5in?s wa? more active than for a few days past. The disposition to buy came back with renewed force after the decline, du? to the growing firrnn?.js of corn. The primary market receipts were 1.1S2.000 bushels, cf which 931.000 bushels were at Minneapolis and Duluth. Export clearances from th? Atlantic seaboard amounted in wheat and flour to 372,000. The visible increased about as expected, 1,531.000 bushels, compared with an increa?-? of 2,313,000 bushels n year. Ta? early loss was recovered and at the close 521Rc for December and 5G?sC fer May were the trading figures. The break in the dry weather postponed to a -till later date the grading of corn Into th? contract class. That was the chief factor In the day's proceedings in that market and on its account the price got a hoist of from Ue to 'sc immediately at the opening and it had another 'ic rise in the emirse of the forenoon. That refers to the May, which is still the chief speculative future, but the nearer deliveries, although traded In to a much more limited extent, made less nidi al fluctuations. November rose V2C per bushel just as the market opened and in a very short time thereafter it was wanted by an anxious short at IV2C advance, but quieted down later to D2c or l4c over its value on Saturday afternoon. May touched oOic soon after the opening, then reacted to 50 50'4c, nfter w'hich it sold up to 5OV2C. It sold again down to 50l&e, but wound up firm at öOV't.öOc. November sold off to 5180 at tli? close. In oats there was a fair liusiness transacted and the market rijled a shade firmer. Sympathy with corn was the principal cause, although te disposition to buy was more prominent than to sell. Outside busir-ean did not nmount to much, although' some orders were tilled. The demand, was principally local and no imiort.ant . . . sfdes were effee ted.

None of the oiTerlngs were K-ood enough to s, 11 near the otitsiUe quotation. In.l'!. there were few trades at better than 45.C5. Western cattle vtre in gciod demand at 4.C for poor tt.. choice, and there were buyers for u!l the Texans at $l.'.".i:5.25. The situation in h.'irs was unchanzed. There was a lartje supply in the pei:s (quite 41.0-) heaa). a no in expectation of continued liberal arrivals the feeling v:m heavy. Shipping orders were ligr.t and local buyers were indifferent, with th- result that another slice was pared off the value of the animal.

There wore many salfs at 4.15''j4.25, and some trading in pies at 4. Compared with lact Monday's prices, today's sales show a decline of 'i 'Jr, an compared with the prices ruling at this time last year there is a loss of $1.7'c l.fvi per 1 pciinds. The offerings were pour in q'tality, and to that faH was partly lue the weakness of prices. The market closed fairly active. The market for good to best qualities of sheep and lambs was strong to a siiade higher. There was no improvement in the market for low grades. The lvr.iand was only fair and the receipts, though in. brate, were equal to the needs of the trade. Quotations range from 5c''i. 51 for inferior stuff to J'.75'i;l for choice wethers.
