Disappointed Office Seekers
Mr.. BENNErT:- ..,. -..,.
Believing you to be an honest and Independent
editor, and DESTROYS Of knowing the truth, am
tempted to notice the aspersens of your Albany
respondent. He is known here to be disappointed
office seeker. Since he could not obtain ofIc by
fawning, he is determined to show the venom OF
his heart by throwing mud upon the spotess charac-
ter OF the Governor.
The Schoharie Farmer is an honest man. and
independent of all cliqses This renders him pecu.
iarly obnoxious to ofice-seekers for thev live and
thrive under the reeklng vegetation of ciquish in.
f1uences. The Governor is willing to hear their
claims patiently, and decide honorabv, but this
does not suit these they want 10 creep up on
the legs OF others, and this our honest Governor
will not tolerate. II Offices are to be filled he is de-
termined that each shall stand ~ own merit,
and this Is the policy Governor'Of New York
should ever pursue.
We have great times here. The Barrburners,"
alias Subtarraneans," have united with the wings
for the rejection OF some of the Governors demo-
cratic nominations and TOR the purpose OF destroying
the office OF State Printer, under the impression that
it will annoy the Governor, and weaken his in
fluence; poor children! they will find they can no
more stop the ball of the Governors popularity than
the fly could stop the progress of the coach wheel
nate They are tickling his vanity with the idea of
making him Governor in 1914. "Thnk of that,
Master Brooks" In the mean time, certain men
are using him to promote their purposes He
does not see that they intend to hoodwink him
He is old, and it is natural he should begin lean
on others. Senator Ruger is the light house of the
Subterraneans Of hmselfhe squlte menagere.
He has been exhibiting himself recently in the re-
lection OF certain democrats of Jefferson County
The Secretary OF State is in rage since the last shot
from the Lieutenant Governor. Col Young pre-
pairing his cannon now, but there is danger if he
loads his piece too heavy, it will kick over and
wound, or perhaps KILL the engineer. Dicklnson's
last letter is terrible piece of invective, seldom ex-
ceed In the English language. He flays his oppo-
nent alive. Col Young has for once met his match
in biting sarcasm, and appears be the impression
that he will regret that he provoked this controversy
In the mean time both wings and democrats look on
with glee, thinking it very pretty exhibition OF Ii
| terary pugillsm.
Your representatives have been distinguishing
| hemselves-particuary Mr.. McMuray but can
vouch tor the fact that he Ill., and this febrle ex
| ciement caused him to lose the balance he would
| have preserved had he been In GOOD health
Mr. White of your delegation, a very fine young
man, and the ladies' think him ga love of man. -
MIR. Pentz is practical legislator, and much re
| spected. He has the State prison bill under his
| wing, and if any thing be done for the mocha
| nc Interests, he will ne Yer tire.
" Benighted Schoharie'' is we'll represented this
year. She has Governor, Senator, and an Aa-
jutant General, either of whom would do credit to
any county in the State. ARIsTIDEs.
