The Tribune Telling the Truth

The New York Tribune has been one
of the most persistently malicious jour
mails in the Northern States, in circulat-
ing sensational stories about the doings
of the Ku Klux and all sorts Of horri-
BILE and blood-curdling tales of the cru
city of the anti Radical South, Shortly
before the North Carolina election, the
Tribune had choice batch of these sto-
ries, received from a reliable source"
and showing 10 what desperate straits
the Union men were driven by the Ku
Klux. Since the election, its plan hav-
ing miscarried, the Tribune admits that
the Ku Klux is weak, silly, and harm
less organization of whom no one in
North Carolina entertains the slightest
dread, and throws npon Governor HoL-
DEN the charge Of originating stories of
outrage and crime, In a recent issue
it says:
ave have word for Governor Hol-
den and Senator Abbott. Just before
the North Carolina election we printed
letter from Judge Tourgee concerning
the Ku Klux outrages in that State.
Certain very startling statements were
made in it which, but for the respecta-
BILE signature, would have been univer-
sally secuted Judge Tourgee prompt
ly wrote us, complaining that the figures
he had given, in enumeratlng
cases OF outrage, had been in
creased tenfold by the addition Of a
cipher to each, converting ten into a hun
bred, etc. Now, we printed the letter
precisely as Governor Holden in person
delivered it to our correspondent, and as
the correspondent understood that Gov
ernor Holden had received ii from Sen
ator Abbott, to whom it was addressed
We submit to these gentlemen that they
have allowed too long a time TO elapse
without explaining to us how the dis
graceful garbling occurred. We should
have expected them to be as indignant
as we were ourselves at the fraud prac-

Social Equality,

\ few mntbs ago an improper inti-
macy sprung up between a leading Rad
ical of Clinton township, Monongalia
county and poor girl Of the same sec
ton. Two weeks ago child was born, and
the L. r. found himselfin trouble. The
child was claimed to be his by the girl,
but lie denied the soft impeachment
The terrors OF the law were threatened,
and he acknowledged the corn. To
get rid of this incubus on his
farther advancement in the church
and party, he took the child from the
girl and hired, for a consideration, a ne
gro family to bring it up; they agreeing
to bring it up as one OF their own The
neighbors, however, thought this was
carving the Fifteenth Amendment too
far; it was virtually carrying out Sum
ner's social equality bill, and they pro-
tested against the arrangement, and ap-
piled to the proper authorities for the
child's removal. 1t will probably be
accomplished. The l.. 4. has the ne
grophobia, assuredly, and a plaster of
tar and feathers or an application of
birch we prescribe as remedy. Con.

The murder of Mrs. Mary Tobin. by
Thomas Reardon, near Mansfield, In
March last, is well remembered by our
readers, and also the fact that Reardon,
Notwithstanding the leisurely manner in
which he conducted himself after the
murder, the lameness which prevented
a high rate of speed on his part, and
the industrious pursuit of him which
was instituted, disappeared so success
fully and utterly that he has never
been heard of definitely from that
time to this. There is some reason
to hope that Reardon is now in custody.
This morning a telegram from La
grange, Jefferson county, Ohio. was re-

who was supposed to be the man who
murdered the woman near Mansfield
last spring. The Mayor Immediately
telegraphed a full description of the
murderer. and requested prompt an

The Defeat of bingham.

The nomination of JOHN A. BISG-
HAN, in the Sixteenth Congressional
District of Ohio, has been forced upon
the Radical party there in such man
ner as must inevitably result in his
defeat. A "revenuering" in Tuscarawas
managed the whole affair. The dele.
CATION from Harrison county, BISe-
HANS home, was not unanimous in his
support; and even after he had received
a sufficient number Of votes to give him
the nomination. when a motion was
made to declare the nomination unani-
nous, the entire Belmont delegation
and some Of the delegates from Noble
and Guernsey refused to concur.
The GAINESVILLE Enterprise, a "neu-
trail" paper which leaned very strongly
to BrSeHAM's support before the Con-
vention, admits now that he cannot be
elected, The Radical majority in the
District last year'was only one hundred
and fifty-six. The Enterprise says
at is admitted generally that this
majority viii be swept away in 1870,

advanced Ground"

Colonel Ton SWAMI, the renegade
rebel, takes what the Radicals call lad
vanced ground" on the negro question.
He is in favor of complete equality, po-
litically, socially and emphstically.
Some of his utterances in that direc-
ton are not much relished by many of
the Republicans, and it is surmised that
his rantankerous speeches make more
votes for the Democracy than for his
political friends. When he gets to the
United States Senate he may fraternize
with REvELs and SUMNER with perfect
IMMUNITY, but he will have to be little
cautious abont going the whole hoe"
before the Republicans of West Viz
pinia.

Berkeley County.

The Radicals in Berkeley county seem
to be somewhat demoralized by the
glimpses they have been able TO catch
of the retribution that awaits them In
the fall election. At a recent meeting
of their county committee, proposition
was made to avert the coming storm by
calling a Convention without distinc-
ton of party and putting mixed ticket
in the field. After an animated discus.
sion the resolution was voted down and
two of the seven members of the COM
mittee presentfo formally withdrew. Much
disaffection exists on account Of the
control of ring that uses the Offices
of the county to enhance its private in
terests to the detriment Of the people.
The most efectusl reform movement
they can inaugurate will be the election
of the Democratic ticket in October.
