to investigate Bpwen's case reported
in effect against him. He was proved

The Crooked Chaps.
The Times says editorially: A half
dozen whisky dealers were arrested
yesterday and held to bail to answer
to the charge OF neglecting the duties
imposed upon them by law with re-
ference 10 payment of taxes. These
dealers had received large amounts
of whisky from the west, and it j.
suspected that they have been aiding
western distillers in putting crooked
liquor upon the market. Their bail
however. was fixed at compara
lively low figure and the anticipation
of any whisky war like that in St
Louis does not seem asonable.
Arguments Against Tilden.
Mucl comment is excited in DEM
ocraiic circles By an editorial in the
Evening Express against Tilden',
nomination for the Presidency. II
urges that wise cOunsels should pre-
vail rather than that ! ersonal ambi
tion or party cliques should rule; tha
New York has no claim for the nom
inatIon this year, and courtesy to
ward other States should prevent any
being presented. 1t denies Tilden'
claim as the sole reformer. In 1877.
he was elected by fifty thousand ma
jority though not the first choice o
the Democratic party. The follow

that autumn he assumed to and die
control the State convention, ,namin,
all the candidates, and also had the
State committee made to suit him
self. The result was a reduction q
the Democratic majority by fort,
thousand, and the loss of the Assem-
bly,. The Express protests agains
all efforts to set aside and crowd ou
prominent Democrats who refuse I,
join in the formation of any strictl,
personal party. The article ha
