He moved to Plainfield in 1890, and became tariff editor of the New York Tribune, which position he has held ever since. His joint debated in Chicago with W. H.

A standard history of Lorain county, Ohio: an authentic narrative ..., Volume 1
By George Frederick Wright
"Home Op The Horrs
Wellington was the home of Roswell P. Horr and his twin brother, Roland A. Horr, the former congressman from the Saginaw District, Michigan, and the latter, at one time, a member of the Ohio State Senate. Both were men of sterling worth and ability. They closely resembled each other in a wonderful manner. When Roswell was a member of the National House of Representatives his brother visited him one day after the morning session had begun. Roswell passing the doorkeeper said ''Good morning"- greeting the doorkeeper by name. In a few moments the brother appeared repeating the same words. The doorkeeper was perplexed. A little later the brothers appeared'side by side and started to enter. The doorkeeper stopped them. It was against the rules to allow any one but members on the floor.
"Only one of you can go in." "Which one?" asked one of the men.
"D- n if I know," replied the doorkeeper, and so both passed.
Roswell Horr was a student of men and things. He said one reason why he thought women were trivial was because they never talked sense to them. He always treated women with the greatest respect, real respect, not gallantry, and said he learned much from them. He was devoted to his wife and daughters, and had no use for men who were trifling and unfaithful. At one time in the boarding house where he lived in Washington was a handsome congressman who annoyed his wife by flirting. At one time he was attentive to a foolish young woman. The latter occupied a place at the table with the congressman and his family, and the wife was very unhappy. This condition finally was noticed by Mr. Horr. When he was leaving the dining room he passed the table, touched the congressman on the shoulder and when the two
were in the hall said: '' Now look here, ! Stop this thing right here.
We won't stand for it. If you do not, I '11 lick you. You act like a lovesick schoolboy, instead of a congressman and a father." That ended it.
After Mr. Horr left Congress he was a special writer on the New York Tribune. He covered the political situation, particularly the tariff. One of his famous sayings was that "the Southerners should raise more hogs and less hell."
