RICHMOND WING ACCURACY.

By the Postscript in the Richmond Wing OF
Saturday last, il seems that some one Of its Ed-
tors went of in a "Bia-c Of Glo,B" What kind
OF 'Jia-c Of glory" the Editors could gather
from the election Ill Pennsylvania is beyond ac
count. With defeat staring them in the face, and
with heightened faces, they penned that postscript,
10 encourage their iainting subscribers We can
Judge Of The dsordcred stale Of their minds from
one OF the statements made by them, that, "in
1910, Porter, the Loco candidate, was elected Go
vernon in October by several thousand, yet, i'll
three weeks afterwards, the State voted for Gene
al Harrison" No doubt the Coons sucked this
statement down with great RELISH and took the
poor consolation therelrom, that if Skunk is even
elected now in Pennsylvania, Henry Clay will
get The State in November. But wish 10 cool
of these Coons 4 little, By informing them that
their confidence in the Richmond Wing, if they
have any, is misplaced for. be it known 10 The
Richmond Wing, and to all Coons, that there was
no election for Governor in PENNSYLVANIA in
1910; and the above statement of the Richmond
Wing is not true, as any one can ascertain for
themselves, if they will enquire when The cleo
ton took place. Porter was elected Governor
in October, lSll, nearly a year after the Prcsiden-
tial Election. But why multiply words about
this? Who can place confidence in the statements
OF paper, whose Editors are trembling at the
knees at the defeat that awaits their party!
SOUTH CANAL.
g-rIt is curious enough. that the Enquirer
should have fallen into similar error. But we
see from the 'Ieoman" OF October, 1910, that The
popular vote, Ctor the elections OF members oil
Congress ana the Legisature,) is contradictory
and confused; but from all We can gather, we are
inclined TO the opinion (says the leonan) that
the Van Buren, party has a small majority
enquirer.
