knew that the Amalgamationists had IS
sued document containing doctrines
odious TO tho majority Of the voters Of
this county, to which they bad forged
tho name Of the Republican Central Com
mitlee. for the purpose Of deceiyiug The
people into their ranks; but rs to the
means employed to circulate It through
tho county, confess ! had not the slight
DIST suspicion.
The following statement was made to
me by Mr.. B. u. Bennett, Of Reed town
ship; and l bespeak for It from your
readers a careful perusal, in order that
they may judge Of the deserts Of such
party, and act accordingly when II comes
before them again begging for their sup
port.
Mr.. Bennett says, that on the day pre-
ceoding the election, a gentleman with
whom he was unaoquaiuted stopped at his
house, representing that he was election
eerng for Hord aud Lee; and that he
was enIeavoring to secure their election
by an appeal to 'Maine Law" men. Mr..
Bennett although a staunoh Republican,
is bitterly hostile to everything rosem-
bling tho Maine Liquor Law, remarked
that If the Republican party were going
to assume that position, he would leave
the organization. The stranger assever-
ated that such was the ground occupied
by tho Republican party and candidates,
aud that in this behalf he was election
eering for them. AS no left he handed
Mr. Bennett a circular signed "By order
Of tie RepuRican Central CoptmiAes."-
Mr. Bennett supposing the document to
be genuine concluded 10 bolt and would
have done so, had he not aocidently dis
covered that the whole thing was a forge
ry. Several of his neighbors having re
ceived n visit from the Same parsonage,
on the same mission. He determined'to
ascertain who it was that had been thus
swindling the people by the Wholesale
He discovered that the Maine Law Re-
publican individual, who visited him, is
no other than Mr.. James Love, one Of the
most rabid Locorocos of this city. Feel
ing somewhat chagrined that any one
should attempt to dupe him in this man
ner, Bennett went 10 him and charged the
rascality upon him. Love, changing
color very last, from red to white and
back to rcd again, at first denied that he
was the man; but receiving somo very
friendly hints from Bennett that il might
not be entirely wholesome for him to ig-
moro his personal identity, ho very wisely
concluded TO refrain. To sum up the
whole matter il amounts to just this; The
Looofoco Central Committee issued a
forged circular and commissioned men to
litfuse il among the people, palming
themselves off upon honest, unsuspeoting
voters as Republicans, hboring zealously
fvr the success Of our cause. The Anal
samatiouists offered as returns from Ok
ford precinct in Kansas, several pages Of
civilians Cincinnati Directory" they
drove drunken Indians by the thousand
to the polls in Iowa, to vote the Locoroeo
ticket but in unblushisg ,villainy the
Locotocos Of Seneca county have exoelled
them all. Yours, in truth.
