However , If Howe were to expend the whole $50,000 in thn big First district it would not elect him , as the average voters are beginning to llnd out that the self constituted leaders in their respec tive localities arc so easily controlled by boodle , which they have to make up in the way of railroad tax on tholr grain and stock before the year is tip. They are refusing to longer bo led , and hence the action of the independent republican voters of this county. While they have no boodle , an active campaign will bo made by individuals throughout this county , and when the votes are counted in November it will bo found that the money appropriated to cary votes in Tennessee -ibsolutcly failed to cap ture the honest votes In Nebraska in sup port of the bar-tending temperance advo cate , who is all things to all men , who Jives in allluoncc ami rolls in wealth se cured largely by killing hills which ho Introduced in the Nebraska legislature and oilier wily moans known to the No- inulia statesman who will never repre sent the First district in congress. iMKjoituss or STATI : WOIIKS The board of public lands and build- vings , at its meeting on Monday , al lowed the estimate for the second 500 foot being sunk and known as the salt well.

The question of ar " rests" was being discussed in court yester day , and it is understood that certain parties , if not mixed up in it , were spec tators. Jailor Parsons has now in his charge only about eight prisoners , and the city boarding house is depopulated greater than in the last two months. MINOU Mi'xriox. Hon.

[ Oor- respondeneo of the IIK. ) : } When 1 was down p'i-t a lew days ago [ met at Chicago cage three of the most eminent military men this or any other country has pro- dtteed in the present century. These were Generals Sherman , Scoiield and Terry. Uncli- Hilly Sherman was as lively a * a boo and actually looked .oiingor than he did four years ngo , Hi- was on his way to the reunion of the Army of the Tun- npsM'o and full of pleasant anticipations at the prospect of meeting his old sol diers once more. He had jnsl been to California where he had lived so long and had enjoyed the rare hospitality of the big hearted mon of the coast. It was very agreeable to hoar him la'k ' of Cali fornia nnd the Californians. Ho had como back through British Columbia and boon honored wherever ho had gone by the loyal subjects of the good Queen Vic toria , lie jokingly said he had not known what n great man ho was until ho had gone abroad. Special trains , escorts nnd receptions had met him at every point , nt'd ' no people could Imo done more to show their re-pcet for him than did the ColumbianHe described the country minutely from the I'atilio ocean to tlie great lakes of the north , and those who know Sherman will tiniler- btand how well ho could do it. It was very pleasant to hear Uncle Hilly talk nnd to see how lively and happy the old general was.Vhiit a womlnrlid man Sherman has been , and how unlike in all respects ho is to his great Iriond , the dead commander , General Grant. Yet between those two men there existed the warmest friendship , and Grant never seemed to tire of praising bliorman. As for the hero of the march to the sea , Shormaii can hardly yet speak of Grant without tears in his voice and often in his eyes. How long it will bo before Sherman follows his great friend over the divide no one can tell , but not long I .suppose , ami all too _ soon for his old sol diers and the American people , who love this old man as they have loved fnw mon who have lived among them in the last fifty years. Tr.iiitr. Terry I had not soon since 1870 when wo were on the ill-fated campaign against Sitting Bull , in which Custur and his command lost their lives. Ho is much changed and has aged a great deal. I suppose those who 'ire about him ovorv day do not notice the clninsc , but I could see it and was really pained to observe how old ho is growing. Terry will retire November 10 , 1891 , and has tlicrctoro only a little over live years to serve. He was born November 10. 1827 , and will bo retired by law at sixty-four years of ago. Without the advantages of n military education General Terry is perhaps at present the most accomplished general in our army. Since the death of Han cock , if any soldier can be called the "superb" it must bo Tarry. The hero efFort Fort Fisher is so well known to all our people ho needs no dc&ciiption , but it is pleasant to think of this , courtly soldier and gentleman and to wish him a lontr and happy life. 1 have known General Terry well and I can say it advisedly that with all his great public reputation few- know of the goodness and kindness of his heart. He Is not only a great soldier and a great man , but one of the best mon that over lived. His retirement will como all too soon for us who live in the army under him and love him. Wo can only wish that after he retires ho will bo as happy , as ho will bo.followed by the love and respect of his soldiers and ofliceis. All will pray that the good God may bounteously' lengthen out his life for immv years to bless his country and his friends. SCIIOKir.M ) . What General Scholiold was doing in Chicago , 1 do not know , and he did not say. Ho was looking well but lleshior than when I saw him three years ago. General Soholield is a remarkable man and perhaps has more political ability than any man In the United States army. Ho has never yet boon placed in any position however diflicult that ho did not manage it to easily as tov astonish even his most intimate friends. When Presi dent Jo inson wished to make him secretary of war , Gonoarl Grant became alarmed for the reputation of bis friend , and wrote him to decline the ollico in advance , but Bchofiold did not decline it. Iio came to Washington , assumed the dillienlt position umler Johiihon and mudo so good a secretary of war that not only the grouty prenident , but the whole country heartily approved of him. Grant was astonished and although ho had a high opinion of Scliofiold'a ability before ho over afterwards spoke of him as 0110 of the ablest mon In the country. 1 think the administrative ability of General Scholiold is hardly known to or appreciated bf the people of the coun try. Ho would make n good president , and it is out of just such timber good and safe presidents are made. Ho will TO- tire trom aetlvo service September 29. 180. ; , and should ho live until then wil ns senior major general command tlio army from March 0 , 1695 to September 2I > , 1895 , Sheridan -retiring March 0,180.r before Seholiold.

It is iiossiblo ono orjtwo names may huvo been loft out in the above list and a few olllcors may have changed their rank and regiment by promotion but tlio list will bo found nearly , if not quitecor rect , and may be relied on , At some future time 1 may publish the retirements for the next ton years , viz : from 181)0 ) to 1900 , but these will sutllco for the present and no list of retirements beyond 1890 could bo rolled on , as death would cut it all up and perhaps not one-half of the olllcers named would live to reach a re tiring ago. It will bo seen that tlio president haeu brigadier general to appoint for the en gineer corps and one lor the medical de partment. On October 10th a vacancy will occur in the line of the army by the retirement of Brigadier General Joseph II. Potter and thn president will also have this vacancy to lill. Who the now brigadier will bo of course no on'o etui toll , but it is generally believed in army circles Colonel James C. Duane will bo called to the head of the engineer corps , Colonel Charles Sutherland to the head of the medical corps and Colonel Wesley Morritt bo appointed to Potter's place. The contest for Potter's jilacii will probably bo lively as all the arms , cavalry , artillery and infantry claim it. For my own part , although I should gain milo by Merntt's appointment I would rather son the infantry got it. Colonel Luther P Bradley , who retires December 8 , 1880 , should not be hent into his lotlro- mi'iit as a colonel , neither should Colonel Orlando H.Vileo \ , who retires April 10 , 1S97. Both of these eminent soldlurs deserve - servo promotion and it is hoped they will got It. As for Colonel Merrill ho does not retire until Juno 1U , 1000 , and ho has waited so long he can wait six or eight months longer to see two such comrades as Bntdlny and Wllcox prop erly rewarded. 1 doubt not if ( jcnoral "Merrill could be assured that his promo tion would follow the retirement of Bradley ' and Wileox lie would nnjfor to wait. 'No doubt it President Cleveland know this was the opinion of the Bui : ho would make out the appointments as de sired. "Don't let some pody pretty quick spoeohk soon mil dot brcseilont. " UKATUS IX Till ) Alt.MY. Few estimate how rapid the old sol diers of the late war are passing away. An . army a year , a corps a month , a rogl- : mont a week , and n company every day go out to that eternal camping ground boyoud the grave. In the great volunteer army no ' ono can tell how many die for there is no i record Kept , but in tlio regular army every i death is reported and measuring by them wo can toll pretty nearly how I fast ( he volunteers are passing away.
