Radicals seoli terrifcally now at seeing
their o,cr anti-Allisoa articles in print.
Prior to his neniaation there were few
r.psrs in the district That wished for or
expected him to be candidate. Ills
friends (those who wanted him out OF
their way) talked of him as successor to
Senator Grimes or Gov. Merrill, or Tor
some position moro elevated than tho
over branch of the National Legislature.
Several modest gentlemen of the party
allowed their names to be associated with
prospective congressional honors. MIR.
Allison was not talked of and they had
right to come into the ''circle.' They
were politely invited to stand back awhile

Senator POWERS of the Chickasaw district
was oyer-p o,rered with Indignation and
gave utterance to the following politico-
personal exposure:
There must be some mistake about this
nomination. lie Distinctly remembered
that two years ago, in his room, VIM. B..
Allison solemnly declared and promised
to him that thereafter he would not be a
candidate for congress. Having served
the people during three terms he thought
it sufficient to meet the demands of duty,
and would certainly fill the measure of his
ambition. This promise was repeated
with additional fervor and appearance of
honesty. Upon the strength Of that pro.
mise the speaker and many others had
heartily supported Mr.. Allison two years
ago, confident that in 1868 they would be
permitted to confer honors upon their
worthy friends. They now come to this
convention with the candidates of their
choice, and find it slaughter pen. Is it
true that WIN. b. Allison has falsified and
periured himself to the men who two
wears ago responded to his prayer gen.
crously? Powers declared that he was
not a candidate for Office, that he should
have fear, nor was he federal Office
holder, like SO many of the men in this
convention who were backing Allison
lie dared to speak plainly.
Powers proceeded to denounce this AL
lison movement as dastardly. By allowing
his name to be used by the Office holders
and becoming candidate in violation o
most solemn pledges given two years ago
Allison has proved to the people of tn
third district that he is destitute Of honesty
wanting in honor and without par
ticle OF integrity, which arc required of
worthy candidate for representative il
congress. lie denounced the movement
in most bitter terms, and fatty charge
that the convention had been packed b
federal Office holders and purchased b
Allison's money to make YIN. b. Alliso
the candidate of the party in defiance G
the wishes Of the people. lie knew tina
men had been paid money to attend prin
ary meetings in Allison's interest. ii
knew that not onethird Of the delegate
admitted to seats in the convention repre-
sented the wishes Of their so-called con
stituents. All over the district there ha
been most unblushing corruption employe

HAlslErT of the DEBORAH Reyister-l
SLOUGH with pen let US observe-says
IN issue prior to the nomination:
"Mr Allison, disregarding his promise
seeks still further to gobble the publ
Treasury inducements and to beat Mort
