As Auditor Thayer does not retire from Office
for more than year the Legislature will have ample
time to investigate his official transactions.
One hundred students of Cornell University,
The aeu Democrat announces, viii against John H.
SelkIeg and in favor OF George W. SCHUYLER These new
scholars In politics move in the right direction
DelOs DE Wolf exposes the motive OF his
affidavit when he says that he was interested In the VIII
lard Johnson certificates He and Johnson needed the
authority OF some name TO help them dispose OF ths
property. For the extraordinary action imputed to Gov
Tilden there could have been no inducement and no
compensation.
Congressman Scott Lord and c. NJ. Dennison
have made decision that Indians are not under tho
Constitution and laws OF the United States and state of
NewYork citizens and therefore not entitled to vote at

A Republican paper wants to know why, IL
Mr. srube sold out to the railroads in his Pro Rata
Freight bill the agent Of the NewYork Central Railroad
scattered money with such lavish hand in Yates County
to defeat MS return to Albany" The answer is easy
Mr.. strube has already announced his intention OF
pressing the bin again. and probably the Company thinks
Tie cheapest thing ii can DO is TO defeat him.
A good instance of the spirit in which the
Republican organs conduct the canvass Is found In their
treatment of Gov Tldens complete answer to Delos De
Wolf The Albany Journal, which has constituted itself
the organ OF Willard johnson and M De Wo to take
an example saws tnat three ourhs OF s original charge
has been proved by Tilens staten, ut These
are first that Gov. Tilden held interview with Delos
De Wolf; second that he cOnfcsses talking about tho
willard johnson certificates; third that he promised
Mr De Vol he would allow the bill 10 become law.
Ihe Journal knows that Of all sorts and degrees OF
people arc constantly seeking the Executive Of
Zee to learn the fate Of bills, and that where
information can properly be given 1t is given.
The thid statement displays tho characteristic
disingo nuousness OF that paper. Gov. Tiden
told r De Wolf this he did not promise il 20 him as IN
return favor. The difference between giving
piece OF information and promising 10 do thing, Ii as
wide as difference between falr-lnnued newspaper
and Tie AiJdpg journal. Then again Iae journal ue-
mands once more know why Willard johnson has not
been sued II knows very well that he not sued be-
proved 10 have stOen yet It does not hesitate "a 90 on
day after day, telling what il knows 10 be- In effect,
