MENDoTA.-Rev. j. c. Stoushton, Of Aurora
addressed large and enthusiastic Greeley
meeting at Mendoza on Friday evening of last
week. The speech was mastery one, and
was received with frequent demonstrations of
applause. The GRANTEES became so enrage,i
at the success of liberalism in that hitherto
radical stronghold, that they undertook to
break up the meeting by gathering in the
street outside the hall, casting pebbles against
the windows and making hideous noises The
little minority Of GRANTEES in the town was
conveniently scarce, however, when the meet
ing adjourned and the Greeleyites regained
the street.

Senator COnklng, in lis New York speech
having Charged that the reason why Senator
Upton turned against Grant on the San Do
minso question was, because Grant wouldn't
give him AL the patronage he wanted
Senator I. comes bsck' with the following
statement, showing another case of an attemp,
TO bride with patronage as disgraceful as the
case disclosed by Carl Schurz:
when the San Domingo treaty was pending
IN the Senate Mr.. Tipton's son Was in England,
hoidinY the position of clerk OF the commercial
agency at Bradford, with u salary of ii 400 q
year. Desiring, for personal reasons. to 60 to
huadersheld, he thought that 1t the agent who
was az the last named place could b ordered
70 report to the Consul at Sheffield or Leeds,
where Mr. Richardson was, he might get the sp.
poinrment. which he preferred to the one be had,
although the salary was $3.50 less. To arrange
this matter he called upon Assistant Secretary
OF State Bancroft Davis, who at once said that
ne saw no objection to it, but added, why should
your son hold such an unimportant position as
thas when hs can have an important consulship
worth $5,OOO year? Go to the President and
ask him to appoint him to consulate; name it.
and he will do it. How about San Domingop
THE Senator replied that the treaty could never
get through the Senate" Bancroft Davis then
said that he considered the opposition to the
treaty as fight against the President.
When the Senator was at the State Depart.
ment clerk was called in and ordered to write
q letter directing that the change asked for be
made. few weeks later without any explsna-
ton, cable despatch was sent from the State
department to England countermsnding the
order made in the letter.
The circumstances and the inquiry about the
San Domingo treaty in the same breath, in which
the important consulship was offered, and the
final revoking OF the order, requested BY the
Senator, when he persisted in his opposition to
the treaty, Mr.. Upton has always considered as
part OF the personal influence which the Prssi.
dent permitted Bsez to exert in favor Of the
treaty, and he brands Mr. Conkling's story Is
wholly false. He refused to take the consulship
and in return support the San Domingo treaty,
and he always believed that it's offer was an
attempt to influence his vote on the subject.
The Senator has never before noticed the report,
and would not have done 90 now had not Mr..
Conkling 80 publicly made the charge against
him.

In 1861 the city seized and sold the prop

Henry Salnory bought 2 portion of the

the rest, and duly paid over the purchase
money to the Sheriff, n
Subsequently it was discovered that the
wrong property had been sold. The city
claimed and received from the then Sheriff,
Mr.. e. Z. Parker. the amount of the pur-
chase money, and through the courts made
restitution to Messrs. Krautz g. Laplace,
but has not made restitution to Mr.. Henry
SamOry, the claim never having been put
In suit by him. The receipts and court
records referred to me with the claim fully
establish these facts.
/ recommend that Mr.. Samory be disal-
lowed the amount of $l67 90, claimed for
city, State, drainage and United States
taxes, paid while in actual cupan of
the property, and be allowed in new con-
oluaLeu D0ndS, at the rate OF NINETY cents |
IN the dollar, the sum of SI165 AZ, without
