Some Democratic Lying Exposed.

The Jefferson Banner last week
contained several items relative to the
Milwaukee whisky ring, and the reve-
Iations concerning it recently made by
g. J. Conklin. In the first place
il assumed that the statement which
appeared some two weeks ago in thu
Milwaukee Commercial Times, to
which we alluded In our last issue, was
sworn to and in evidence before Con-
gressional committee. The Banner
must hare known that it Nas telling an
untruth. The statement spoken Of was
Conklin's letter. addressed to Messrs.
Ackenney and Dixon, and was not an
shdavit vt all, nor evidence in any
way whatever. It was simply . CON-
nunication, and entitled to no weight
except rs such.

The La Crosse Sun has refused to
sling mud at a political opponent for
political purposes and it responds to
the crack of the party whip in the
following pointed paragraph respecting
member Of ':our own loved party:"
The Milwaukee Commercial Times
says the San is now the only Demo
cratic paper that openly defends Boss
Keyes. The Times is mistaken. We
do not defend Elisha, if he is convict
ed of wrong doing. We are bracing
him up, that's all. The Times should
remember that Mr.. Reyes was not the
only political party that received
| money from the Whisky Ring to
carry an election. We admit that
Reyes ought to be hung. and all that,
but if they get to hanging people for
taking money from the whisky ring,
for political campaigns, some of our
own loved party may get all tangled
up in the rope You remember that
the same men that are swearing against
Reyes. testified before the u. s. Court
OF Milwaukee, that money had been
paid to another party than the Repub-
lican party. Of course, the editor of
the Times knows, as we'll as We do,
that no Democratic politician would
take money to be used in campaign,
unless he was chIoroformed and the
money stuffed into him. When they
convict Reyes and Carpenter of prom
ising to defend the whisky ring, in
consideration of money, then the San
will write their political obituary.

S. j. Conklin swore before the in-
vestigating committee that he co.,
lected money from distillers and paid
it to Boss Keyes to be used for poitl-
cal purposes, and that j. L. Moak, of
WateItown, knew that he raised some
money for that purpose.-Jeterson
Banner.
Conklln never swore to any such
thing 1t is true a letter of bis is
Published in which appeared some
such statements, but the fellow is care
full to not swear to them, because they
are false. But what il they were
true? What if Moak did know that
Conklin raised money for political
purposes? Conklin does not claim
that Moak knew the money was paid
by the whisky ring; and hence the
statement is no more important than if
it were that John Doe contributed the
money and that Richard Roe knew it..
The effort Of the Banner to be-
smirch Mr.. Moak in this matter is in
excusable, but perhaps nothing more
just should be expected from that
paper when we remember that its
editor was the private secretary, of the
late Gov. Taylor, and the latters fugle-
man in fixing up that celebrated con
tingent account in which appeared SC
many suspicious entries and erasures

versary, must not be looked fer from

A Victory For BalIot.Box Suffers.

1t was the last Democratic candi-
date for President who called the
Democrats "ballot-hox suffers" Hor.
ace Greeley spoke from experience in
this matter. Tor he had contended
against the Democracy all his life. 1t
is tair to suppose that when be ran for
office the suffers did not work for
him with their usual zeal. In fact
the law which he wanted passed and
which was passed to prevent fraud, re
suited in securing an honest election
and where Seymour had received TO-
600 majority four years before. Gree
ley was beaten by So 455. Two years
afterwards, however, when the nation
al law was not enforced, as the contest
was for Governor, Tilden was counted
in by over 1000 majority.
The Tammany Democrats with this
record before them, are naturally very
anxious to have all Instructions re-
moved that stand in the way of ballot
box stutfing. They want to have
their candidate counted in. This was
made manifest in the House on the
I'D, when the Sunday Civil Appro.
priation Bill came up. The Demo-
Gratis opposed the appropriation to en-
force the law enacted to secure purity
in National elections and prevent bal
lot box stuffing. 1t was directly
charged that they want to Cypress and
to intimidate the colored vote this fall.
Being unable to cope with the Repub-
licans in the debate on this subject,
they choked down free speech, by re-
fusing to allow Republicans twenty
minutes to discuss the Bill. They
even decliued to have a record made
of the votes, but this cowardly attempt
to escape responsibility by refusing to
allow the people to see who opposed
the law was finally frustrated by Re-
publican management. But the ap-
preparation was voted down, and the
ballot-box suffers are delighted

Mr.. BLAINE's HEALTH WASH
INGToN, D. c., June 23.-Mr. Blaine,
since his speech to an immense crowd
that gathered at his house on Monday
night, to pay him the compliment of
serenade, has not been as we'll as pre-
viously, and to-day he did not feel well
enough to leave his bed. His mental
condition, while by no means threaten
ing, is not as strong as his friends had
hoped 1t would be, and physically h e
has little of the strength and activity
which have characterized him for the
past twenty years. He says himself
chat be lost the snap and vim be had
before his attack, and that he has new
err had SO slight an appetite. He neg
lects his private correspondence, and
seems to have no concern about the
business. He has consented to obey
the physicians injunctions SO far as to
leave at once for a change of climate
and new scenes. On Monday or Tues
day he will take special car for his
home in Augusta, and will impose upon
himself absolute and undisturbed res,
for several weeks, free from newspap
ers, telegraph, politics, and visitors
On the way he will respond to no calls
and will make the trip as quietly al
possible. He will not return to Wash.
