A VERY UGLY STORY ABOUT HAYES.

VERY UGLY STORY ABOUT HAYES.
Considerable sensation was Gre
ated here last Saturday night at
the organization of a Tilden and
Hendricks Club, by the unexpect>
ed confirmation of the statements
of Rev. w. W. Harper, late chap
lain of the 18th West Virginia
Volunteers, in regare to General
Hayes having appropriated to HIM
self $500 belonging to a soldier
who was shot for deSertion at Mon
ocacy Junction during the war
Hon VIM. Dunkin addressed the
club, and in the course of his re-
marks stated that the Republicans
were in the habit of representing
MI. Tilden as the personification
Of corruption and Mr.. Hayes as
the embodiment of purity. he
had re d o statement recently
made by the late chaplain of the
18th West Virginia Volunteers,W
W. Harper, to the effect that Mr..
Hayes had appropriated 60 himself
S400 which belonged to a soldier
who had been executed for deser-
ton. If the statement was true,
then Mr.. Hayes was unworthy of
public confidence. If it was false,
then Mr.. Hayes ought to be vindl'
Gated. As tho Colonel of the 18th
West Virginia Volunteers was
present, he appealed to him to
know if the statement Of Chaplain
Harper was worthy CT credence.
Gen. Wm. R. Brown, who CONS
manded the 18th West Virginia
Vols, being present., was called
upon to state what no knew of the
case. The General seemed very
much embarrassed, and regretted
that he should have been called
upon to say anything in regard to
the matter. He was q personal

Well, if the truth were known,
doubtless they have voted to suit
each other in days gone by. Who
knows? Stranger things than
that have happened. The fact
that we have a few hundred Dem

wants to 90 to the Legislature.
Verify politics make strange bed

WHEN the Primary nominee ans
nounced the other day that he was
an old Jacksonian Democrat it
startled some people like a clap of
thunder in a clear sky. And ln>
deed, he spoke in public on the

the hero of New Orleans! When
did he emerge from the ranks of
the Republicans? Who has known
his politics the past four years!

may.
