CARD FROM c. W. GODDARD.
To the Editor of The Tribune.
SIR: l notice in your issue of this morning,
letter from Mr.. George c. Bennett Of The Brooklyn
Times in which assaied for not supporting said
Bennett a candidate for the Assembly. Having opened
your colu to Mr.. Bennett sure. you will do
the justice TO publish reply, and will endeavor to be
as brief as possible.
In the first place. there Is nothing in the character of
Mr. George Bennett either personal political which
should incline Republicans make him their candidate
He has long been the editor and proprietor Of The Brook
Ign Times and It's conduct has at all times, been SUCH as
TO make him favorte Of our Courthouse Ring In
short he and for many years has been subsidized
atache Of the Ring and has grown rich mainly through
the equal share with The Eagle 1.-THE Democratic organ
in the corporation patronage Nor this all Last Winter
among other obnoxious enacted into law
an act reorganzng the brooklyn Water Board This act
was surrepousy passed. and not in 10000 Of our cit
zens knew anything Of its character and provision till
waking mp one morning last Spring they found every
Albany Commissions, against which, so much has been
said by the Democracy. There was this however, Which
Commissioners, were to be appointed by the local Au-
horideS I'm other words, the Court House Ring and ey
rere named on the Ring Here was new Held openeaf
Bennett here more patronage. ana he became, heU
subsidized tool and his paper little else than the organ
The Water Board succeeded IN naming most Of the
ddates for the Assembly both sides and on our s9e
in only two instances did they emphatcaly fal It's
proper however. to say that IN some districts where
there chance for success the issue was not MADE
but tho two dstricsI referred to are the Fifth ana
Eighth. In the former the Hon. w. W. Goodrich was
nominated and purer or better man never went 10 tne
ring and they did all they could at the polls 10 defeat
him. aud falling in this they counted him OUT In another
with nearly all Of the true Republicans OF the district
in favor of the nomination OF some good German,
James L. Jansen, but on account or pressure OF private
business Mr. Jansen felt compelled TO decline. Where
Mr. George c. Bennett, but Mr.. David Tees jr, young
lawyer OF unbemshed character OF good hqbits, de.
voted Republican, and against all rings. His
nomination fairly made. according TO custom ana
usage Hundreds of people witnessed IT, Including me
Executive Committee of County Committee and Mr.
Bennett himself and no one questioned the fairness, or
regularity OF the nomination. but after an was over some
up stairs and nominated Mr. Bennett who was present
MIR Tees had been farly nominated and it the duty
al Republicans TO vote for MIN, when was sehsDie
and right But il seems a Committee was appointed by
to mn stairs concern who after consulting with their
masters or rather being instructed by them, IL was CON
cludcd to run Mr. Bennett, fearing, presume that Mr.
Tees might not be sound on the Water Board question: as
he would not have been except for It's repeal Ana SIM
@yrrTbod ont comes the large posters for Mr. Bennett
A. tie regular nominated candidate, and his paper was
filed with advertising himself rs the regular candidate
but every time he made such an uterance re kHeW rdS
untrue -, ,..,,.o.
with his defeat IL is true IL Mr. Teess friends had voted
for Bennett he would have been elected but Bennett
and his friends had voted for Tees as he advised them 10
do Tees would have been elected aud II they had been
honest straightforward Republicans they would ihaVe
Mr. Bennett speaks Of his canvass which is true so far
as IL goes If he would only add the Water Boards like
wise he would get out the whole truth He was not our
candidate nor the candidate OF the Republican party he
was mphatcaly the candidate Of the Ring without even
the form OF nomnatlOn-n fact, lie was the boiling
stump Ring candidate while Mr. Tees was in every par.
ticular regular. In view or these 1acs u Is noI
Mine in the Republican partyl Why he asks lie TRB.
UNE aid him in turning men out OF the Navy VINO
toug hard TO feed and care fop thelr iames pe,
they voted for much better Republican than ne
is and also the regular nominee think ne WIZ nave
good time eulisiing THE TRIBUNE IN his UNDERTAKING
when the case is fully understood.
We did support Mr. Tees, little candidate as termed
by the huge Bennett because no was fairy homhseu'
and in all respects well qualified to serve his consttu-
ents aud the Republican party at the same tl 1g
free 20 admit he not 20 bulky nor VIII ne hod az
much ms Mr. b. but for all useful purposes, he would
have been infinitely his superior o-,. o,o,,,o, ,ooo,
general for ~ years and have never yet scratched
