his assistants, are now in London under
assumed names.
TITUsvILLE, PA, Oct. 1.-The Daily
EUeniRg Press of this city announces that
there Is fraudulent registration in Titus
vile of nearly one thousand names and
the Press intimates that that is part of the
system of colonization which has been eX-
teusively practiced throughout the oil re-
gion. The Press is an independant paper
and does not charge the proceeding upon
any party. The registration is nearly
double that of last year. There is to be a
vigorous investigation commenced at once.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-The treaty between
the United States and the German EN-
pire for the exchange of postal orders goes
into operation to-day. A Washington dis
patch says that private advices from Ja-
pan report a crisis in public affairs there,
indicate the assendancy of the old japanese
party over the reformers which will end
for the present the spread of Western civil
lization in the Empire. Minister Mori is
to be succeeded by a.representive of the nom
progressives. Horace Capron, who went
from Washington as Commissioner of
Agriculture, to fill some post in Japan has
been discharged. Prischine Smith, who
went to organize a law Department there
was also discharged.
Information from Europe represents the
embassy to the Western treaty Powers as
stranded in London, without friends or
authority to work on.
A war vessel in New York has stopped

Knoxville daily chronicle. [volume] (Knoxville, Tenn.) 1870-1882, 1872-10-02

Sth, 1917 as follows: "That those who
struggled and fought for secession gen.
orally believed they were right in SO do
ing, can not doubt. They
propose to.renew the fight, but not with
"gun and saber. They expect to regain
"as Democrats through elections the pow
Ger they lost as rebels through War."
When people now read this same man S
speeches, claiming. that these.same people
are prosecuted and and cruelty prescribed,
they naturally ask what has been done to
prescribe them Since. June, 1871, or what
have they done to so radically change Hor-
aces views of their motives and hopes? 1t
is such thoughts as these that justly pro-
woke distrust in Greeley's sincerity and
honesty and cause people to believe he is
now playing the demagogue and eating
his own words. for an office.
ANOTHER REFORNIER.
Hassaurek, of the Cincinnati VolkS6latt,
has been on the fence ever since Greeley's
nominatian, but practically he has been
supporting Grant. The State Committee
of Ohio solicited him to make speeches for
Grant. He agreed to do so if they would
pay him $780, 900. They declined, but said
they might pay him $4,000. That would
have been better pay than Schurx gets from
the Liberals-S200 a speech. But finally
the committee concluded Hassaurek's
services wouldn't be worth so much and
the negotiations ended. Hassaurek felt ag-
-, Of Il
straightway persuaded himself that he was
a "reformer" and came out for Greeley.
OF such is the Reform" party composed.
He thought Grant honest and capable
while he had a prospect of getting pay for
speaking for him, but that hope dispelied,
he is now "reformer" and we shall hear
him on the stump abusing Grant and
preaching for reform. These are facts true
beyond dispute. -. d.Fpapers publishing
them have offeredIto prove them if Has
saurek would only sue them for libel and
give them a chance to do it in court. He
can have no influence after this and the
Tri6nc'S claiming Ohio because of his
getting off the fence shows how little
straws. comfort them.
Gov. Curtin, of Pennsylvania, has wait
ed two long to give much weight or sig
nificance to his letter for Buckalew. Har-
tranft has been slandered, but the charges
have all been disproved and his friends are
confident of his election. Even Buckalew
while in the last Legislature voted to re-.
lieve Hartranft of the charges of compiled
ty in the fraud then alleged and the only
accusations now against him are of gen.
eral character-"a tool of Cameron's," &c.
The specific charges of fraud have all been
disproved. Hartranft stands acquitted.
These facts should be understood. 1t is for
this reason that Republicans are coming
gradually into line in the Keystone State
and all are confident of a victory in Octo-
Der over calumny and Republican disaffec-
ton. AIR.

MESSRs. EDITORS: Permit me through
the CHRONICLE to thank the people of JEFF
ferson county and of the..3d Senatorial dis
trict for the many fattering solicitations
to represent them in one or the other
branches of the next General Assembly of
Tennessee. Having but littler political as
pirations, and belonging as / do to the
noblest of all professions, (the medicaD a
profession that is far more honorable than
the office of knight, nobleman or minister
of State, I would respectfully decline the
race in favor of the regular nominee.
Owing to my appointment upon the
Congressional Executive Committee and
to an over task of private and professional
duties would take this method of resign
ing my position as member and chair
man of the Jefferson County Republican
Executive Committee. Hoping my mantle
will rest upon one more efficient, and that
has more time to perform the duties of the
office.
Again, thanking you for the many
honors, both private and through the pub
lie press of the country, beg leave to re-
main your obedient servant, sincere friend
and fellow-citizen, J, NAT. LYLE.
