Huddle, and Others of the professed
Democratic leaders, please stand forth
and let US see how it is.
You say that the nomination OF
Sloane was the best thing that could
be done. You have deliberately sold
yourselves to Rush r. Sloane and
promised to transfer the Democratic
party of this county to him. This
was not done upon any well defined
principle, but simply from the fact
that Sloane had his men at Fremont
who said that he had $4,000 to elect
himself with. That is all there is of
the affair. Now do you insist that you
can handle the Democratic party in
the manner intended-that for mon
ey, with no principle but to beat Mr..
Foster, you can get the members of
your party to support a man so gen.
orally despised as Rush R. Sloane.
Can you do it?
The proposition Of money from Mr..
Sloane was bad enough, but for the
leaders Of the party to try to buy its
members is insult added to injury.

his brother-in-law's, Mr.. Bucher, gun

raised the hammer with his foot and
attempted to blow into the muzzle to
ascertain whether the gun was loaded
or not. His foot must have slipped
from the hammer of the gun and its
discharge was thereby effected. Mr..
