THE DYING
MAN'S VOTE
A Vot- Tlmt IlroiiRlit on the War
Willi Mexico.
(By It. B. Reynolds.)
EVERY four years the United
States gives the world Us
greatest demonstration of the
iiower of tho. ballot. This year be
tween alxteon and seventeen millions
of American citizens will vote at the
Presidential election. Voting, as
t),nv. win. for thousands of different
rnndldates for fongress and Statu
officers. It Ib Inevitable that In ninny
cases the votes will bo so nearly di
vided that the winners will take
their Beats by a majority of one. 1 ft
It la doubtful If over ngaln In our
history will one man's vote -and that
man u dying man wield so groat an
Influence as did tho vote of a lloosler
which. It Is Bald, brought on the Mex
ican Wnr.
Seventy years ago, a man Iny dy
ing in a cabin In the backwoods of
Indiana. Ills physician had pro
nounced his doom, and the victim
knew thero was no escaping It, he
route his ailment was that Insidious,
deceptive diseaso consumption.
"It's all right," said this pallid
sufferer In his rasping. laiBky voice;
can Btop mo from crossing over, but
you must keep things going for
say, doctor, how far off Is election?"
weakly turning his head nnd fixing
bis unnaturally bright eyes upon his
nttendant.
"Two weeks from next Monday."
"Can you pilot me over that date?"
"I hope so."
"That Isn't answering my tiues
tlon; ran you do It?"
"The moBt that I can promise Is
to use my best efforts; you may drop
off before tlmt time and you may
linger for several days."
"I don't care for n single day be
yond election; what I want, nnd will
have, Is the strength to rldo to tho
polls at next election. You under
stand why?" asked the patient, with
a wan grin. The doctor nodded with
out speaking.
Two years before the sufferer had
been Involved In a scrimmage in
which he killed nuothcr lunu. He
was plarud on trial, and the evidence
would Imve convicted liliu hut for tho
skill of his counsel, Daniel Kelso,
who brought about his acquittal. Kel
so was now the Democratic candidate
for the Statu Senate of Indiana, In
one of tho closest districts In the
country, lie could not afford to
throw away a single vote, and this
man, dying with consumption, was
determined to livu long enough to
rant his ballot for the lawyer who
l.nd Baved him from a disgraceful
death.
Swathed In blankets, the wasted
skeleton was lifted Into a carriage,
driven slbwly for several miles on n
(hilly day to the polls, tenderly lifted
out and helped forward to deposit his
vote. Tho sympathetic bystanders
cheered tho poor fellow, who was tnk
cii hark to his humble home, where
ho collapsed and lived but n few
hours.
That single votu elected Daniel
Kelso Htnto Senator from Switzer
land county, Indiana a fact which
appears In (he official records of tho
year 1843.
Tho burning (uestlon at that time
before the country was the admission
of Tcxiih Into tho Union. The South
favored It. Hut It wiih certain that

Jndltt'd persons claimed that, at best,
tho uiIiiiIhsIoii (if Texas would prove
of doubtful advantage, since the
word "Texas" was only "Taxes" with
the letters In different positions,
The Legislature to which Daniel
Kelso was elected was called upon
to chooso a United States Senator,
rim regular Democratic candidate
announced himself ns opposed to the
uniim-iuii or icxiis. Tills so exas
perated Kelso that ho bounced out or
the caucus, taking with him a friend,
and sworo that he would hold out till
the crack of doom before casting u
joto for tho disloyal candidate, his
f i lend staying with him.
ineir nc.non deadlocked the I.egls-
ature. which met day after day. only

all his time to painting and, return
ing to America, settled at Mont-
lair. New Jersey.
Almost immediately Waugh took

With much mechanical skill and In
ventiveness, he find time In his
odd moments to fashion various
things with tools, and to give no
little attention to the playing of
musical Instruments, making some
of them himself. He has also made
i study of small arms, and has a
notnble collection of those of var
ious epochs nnd styles. Indeed, he
Is nir authority on the subject.
