In all tue South thero is no moro
romantic region than that beyond tho
Blue Bidge mountains, in Nortu Caroli
na, where the voll and tho Indian yet
play their part, as in the days of early
settlement, In Jaokson county a vast
tract of land is owned by tho Oherokees,
tho 11 eastern band" of this onoo power
ful'tribe having there their ohief estate.
Seated by a oozy fire tho other night,
in a committeo room in tho oapitol,
Senator Ellas related a curious story.
He said that in 1862 a stalwart moun
taineer named Hamriok, who up to that
time had managed to avoid tho war and
its attendant features of volunteering 01;
being .oonsorintod, brought a buxom
wife wjth him from Swain oounty into
Jackson county, and made his home in
this qnict and lovely oove iu the Indian
reservation.
,r Months passod. The pair wore do
yotedv. The young wife experienced all
the delights of a thoroughly primitive
existence. But this was not to last.
Thero was a regiment of Oherokees in
the sorvioe of the State, under the com
mand of old Colonel Thomas, One day
an oftlcer of this regiment returned and
found Hamriok in the oove. The latter was
oonsoripted and hurried to the front.
His wife hoxt hoard from him in North
ftj WmeNM
In 1864 the wife?to whom a pair of I
twins, a boy and a girl, had been oom?
learned that her. husband had disap
peared; that after his nnmo^on tho roll
of hisoompany was only that dreadful
ontryv "mfissinsr." ?
' In 1805 tho war ended, alid with its
close oame to hor the news that her hus
band had dosortod?gone oyer to the
Onomy. Year after year passod. The
wife kept the vigil ox love and wearily
waited for tho missing husband, who
novor camo, 1
Thore Woro wooers onough, and "tho
widow," as she was called in tho neigh
borhood talk, had what woro thero con
sidered good offors. One patient lover
named Bowers, thrioe rejected, perse
vered, and in 1876 won the prize of his
dovotiop. Ho brought his effoots to his
wife's home in the oove.
Ten years more passed and 1886 came.
Not one word of the long lost first hus
band had been heard since the returning
soldiers brought news in 1865 of Ham
rick'a desert ion. . True as the wife's de
votion was to hor seoond husband, she
had yot a warm spot in her simplo heart
for tue fiitat, and in her rude, uncultured
way she qyon Wovo a half romance out
of the great and apparently unending
mystery of his absenoe.
One bright day last summer a strangor
came to Bowors's home in tho cove. The
plaoo was in mbsfcftspeots like it was in
1808, for changes in the mountain wilds
aromode slowl^. Bowers was not at
hpme. The wife was now a buxom
woman of forty years, far tidier in ap
poaranOo ahd with much more natural
graco and sprightlincas of manner tiuiu
tho avorago woman in that section. The
stranger asked who lived there. He was
told "tho Bowers family." In' a hos
pitable raapnor ho Was,'asked in the
At dinner time the family received two
more additions?a young man and young
woman, about twonty-tlFree years of age,
oxcoodingly alike in face fcnd mannor.
Tho strai&ger ask#d. "Who are these?"
"They wee HajnQeka's," was the reply
of tho good wlfoj^'my ohildren by my
first hushand." Popple in tho moun
tains in many cases Joved to talk?in
fact, aro npt infrequently garrulous?
and in half an hour the wife had told
the story of her first marriage and the
doop mystery which had ondod it. The
strangor listened attentively, and just as
tho story was concluded Bowers came iu.
A neighbor Came in* and soon learned
tho story, too. The wife bustled about, of
oourse, exoitod, bnt not in tears. Ham
riok aud Bowers talked together.
The neighbors, after the manner of
neighbors all the world over, told the
nowa to people within reach, and next
day these camo to hear and see. A few,
very few, had a remembrance of Ham
riok', not vivid, but faint, for he had
lived in that section but a little while, of
oourse. ,
Presently some loqnaeious neighbor
said to Bowers: "Well, what are you
going to do about it?"
'^Vbout what?" was the reply,
"Why, about that man Hamriok. He's
your wifo's husband."
Tbis'put a new faoeoh the matter.
Bowers had not thought of it in that
toy, neither had the. wife. She broke

A neighbor of tidwers bad what in tliat
oountty 1b known aa "a falling out" with
him about a eider pretw. Out of these
hivii?l affairs grow quarrels, hawh
words, uny, blood-luttidg ami oven
homioides, not infrequently.
Si Tliia time Bowers's now-made enemy 1
waa of another stamp of man. Ho knew '
of the Hamrick matter, but a few months
ago settled. So last October ho went to ?
the oounty soot and there gavo to the
solicitor or a grand juryman tho infor
mation That Bowors was violating tho
statute bv unlawfully liviug with a wo-'
man, and that tho woman Tiad also vio-;
lated the law in committing bigamy.
Now here was a situotion. Iwjwers
and his wifo was .arrested, and SSeuator j
Elias, a lawyer of roputo iu all that ro- j
Eion, was sought to defend them. The j
usband, who had given bond for his j
appearance at court, rodo many miles,
alter "Lawyer Elias" and told him tho ?
wholo story.
Tho lawyor, a man of culture, was j
astonished at tho story thus unrolled
bofore his oyes. Court met and the |
lawyer used all his eloquence and per
suasiveness. He told tho wholo story?
of the deserted wife, tho long vigil of
love, the giving up of the first husband
for doad, the remarriage, tho return of
the loBg lost husband, tho verbal agree
ment that he should return to tho far
northwest and all remain as it was.
The narrative had ita eiToot upon the
rudest mind; but the law had teolinical
ly, unknowingly been violated; it must
be technically enforced. So thore was a
technical *"rdiot oi"0-uiHy? with a recom
nymcktion to the meroy of tho court if
{henparties lived separate and apart.
This waa Lawyer Elias's chance, his
opportunity; ho aeizod it. Ho told Bow
ers that ho and his wifo had best go out
of that neighborhood, and thatvthoy
might live together; that tlib vcrdict was
only teohnioal, and the judgment a more
form, and that in tho futuro tho law
would not again disturb them.
They aetod on tho suggestion, ro
movoa to Macon oounty, and now livo
there at peace with all the world. Only
a fow weeks a$o tho son was married,
and in tho spring tho girl will become a
bride.
So Sonator Elias told tho story, a true
story in all particulars, which has in it
all tno elomenta of tho fanoiful and the
unreal, and is yet just as true as the fact,
known of all mon, that tho groat peaks
of tho Blue llidgo raise themselves sky
ward in Western North Carolina.

(Letter to the I'liilodclpMa Times.)
Washington, March ID.?There is
now no doubt that a quiet movement is
about to be inaugurated looking to a
thorough organization of the political
forcivs on the basis of tho President's
j?olicy of progressive administration and
reform. The fact as to whether he de
sires a rcuominatiou or not is secondary !
to the placing of the Democratic party,
as ho interprets its duty, on a higher
piano and l>y that means to draw addi
tional strength of influence and numbers
from the discordant elements among tho
Republicans, Sufficient is now known
of tho state of sentimont in the Republi
can party to muke it olear that tho re
nommation of Mr. Blaine will arouse
greater disaffection tlian manifested itself
iu tho campaign of 188-1.
There is no doubt of the apprehension
which exists among tho Republican
loaders on tliu loss of ground in many
localities which have hitherto been
counted as certain. A prominent Now
Hampshire politioian and former Re
publican Governor said to-day that a
change of lifty votes iu tho last olootion
would have made tho Legislature Demo
cratic, and would havo sent a Domoorat
to the United States Bonato by tho leg
islature this summor. This would havo
reversed tho strength of parties by
giving tho Democrats thirty-eight, in
stead of thirty-seven, with Riddleborger
doubtful. Tlio friends of Postmaster
General Vilus are talking Wisconsin,
Minnesota and Iowa as doubtful Repub
lican States, and this feeling is said to
be spreading. There is no doubt what
ever that tbo conservative i>olicy of the
President has given such a hold upon
the better soutime.il of tho country that
ho is not only stronger than his party,
but is tho only man in tho party who
can command tho outside support which
will bo nccessary to continue the present
control of tho oxocutivo power.
The repeal of tho tenure of oflico act
iH another important point gained. It
evideutly so regarded 111 administration
circles. Previously it was impossible lor
the Prosidout to make removals. lie
could only suspend, which inferentially
was for cause, which gave tho Republi
can Senate a sort of caveat upon re
iuo /aIs to certain degroe. Tho Presi
dent can now remove for the sake of
romovid without assigning even the
fiction of offensive partisanship for his
act. This has taken away an obstruc
tion to tho appointing power of tho
Prcsideut contrived originally to curb
tho personal partisan aots of' Johnson.
Tho President has now a clear Held and
proposes to use it in building up a fol
lowing which will not only represent liis
oonstruetion and fulfillment of the Dem
ocratic platform of 18S4, but will be a
guarantee of equal fidelity to tho will of
the people in tho poiforinanco of tho
pledges of tho rofortns which may bo
mr.do tho issues of tho platform of 1888.
What most perplexes tho averago Re
publican politician is tho iusido reason
lor tho repeal of tho tenuro of oflico aot
by Republican votes in tho Bonato at ft
time when a Doruocratio administration
is in control of tho patronage. Tho Ro
publican Senators themselves aro divided
in their opinions. Some c^airn that it
was done iu order to prevent it from
coming back to plague them in tho event
of a Republican administration and a
Democratic Senate two years hence. It
was a notification to tho party workors
in tho campaign of next year that with
success will conio the partisan rewards of
tho loot of ofllcc. Tho Republican
leadors claim that tho administration,
having tho oillcos filled with their own
frionds, the best they cau do is to hold
out tho expectation of a now donl in
ovent of success without regard to civil
servico fanoies. Another version is that
it is part of a Fchomo for certain manip
ulations by tho irreconcilable Republi
cans in tho ovont of tho nomination of
Blaino, and that oeitain prominent Re
publicans in tho Sonato were parties to
tho sohomo when tho repoal was pro
posed. Tho friendly relations botweon
tho President and many K Republicans is
not without some ultorior inotivo, if tho
oooasion should come for its application.
Beorotary 'Manning, in a rocont con
versation, did not hesitate to say that ho
was agreeably surprised to fteo tho poli
cy of tho President from a purely politi
cal standpoint bearing suoh oxcollont
fruit. He said that all groat reforms
produce moro or loss friotion, but the
disappointment of a few porsons aftor
tho offices would not stand against tho
durable benefits of a permanently estab
lished ascondonoy of tho Democratic
party, not of l8(M), but of 1888, He re
garded tho poriod from the campaign in
support of President Cleveland to tho
campaign of next year w^a political

oidont of tho struggle, although it mil
be regarded- as a sort of herolo treat
ment of tho diseoso, which, in the resto
ration of the functions of government
over tho wholo oountry, left tho govern
ment stronger and tho people better sat
isfied with oaoh othor.
iiotn parties appreciate tho import
ance of tno timo betwoon now and the
assembling of Congress. At a conforonoo
among tho frionds of Mr. itlaino in thin
oity n few days ago tho liint was dropped
by one who had hoard from him witldn
a Hhort tiruo that ho would accept tho
advico of his friends mid go to Europo

and ho was not so suro hut that litera
ture instead of politics was his proper
field. Tho gontlcmen present looked
aghast at, this idea, in doubt as to whoth
ef the partios woro in jest or in earnest.
Tho trip of Bonator Hherman through
tho HoutJi as a preliminary movo to
stimulate his friends, increasing in num
bers and intlueuco, will doubtless make
headway for him in advance of the se
lection of men for delegates to the
National Convention. There will he a
