| AT HEADQUARTERS.
TO DE SOLD oUT-TuR RAG-BABY.
Once more come the reports that the Greer
back party is about to sell out entirely to tn
Democracy. The matter has passed alon
quietly, and 1t has been kept secret from out
siders. The sale and delivery, of course, wer
not conducted openly, but the facts lead one t.
believe that there has bceh some direct work
It is insinuatcd that both James and R. ii
Springer, President aud Secretary Of the part,
of currency reform, are not working US in
! dustriorsly missionaries gratuitously, but ar,
drawing the salary Of $100 per month each
| Further than than that, Lew Steward is paying
| their wages and has subscribed 5000, besidei
paying some Of the other bills. The
nominations made Friday by g sclf-cou
stituted ring, calling itself County Con
vention was put-up job, and, it is said, were
wholly made with the intention and for the con
venieuco Of selling out, and delivering over the
goods and chattels easily when the time came.
Some of the nominations will not stick, but the
Republicans in the party are to be sold out any,
how. A. C. Cameron, who runs the TVorkin7-
mems Advocate, 1t is alleged, has been paid S100
apiece for all the candidates he has had written
up, and those who would not come down,-they
were ignored or attacked One OF the candi-
dates for the doubtful legislative honors Of the
party is said to have written the biographies at
IS per head. In this way the Workinq,,en's
advocate has pretended to represent the
Interest OF the Grcenback party. The Chicago
headquarters arc said to be run by clique
Further than this, many Of the bills contracted
by the Springcrs, it is claimed, never have been
paid, while there is q sulliciency Of money in
the treasury. There can be no doubt that the
Greeuback party is on it's last legs, and only
looking to fair chance for q realization of the
profits on the delivery of the goods and chattels
which it pretends to control ia the way Of votes.
REPUBLICAN, HEADQUARTERS.
Quietly but successfully the party Of progress
is y working alopg. The roorns in the Grand Pa
ciflc Hotel were visited by large numbers of
Kcpublicans yesterday, who were greatly grnti-
fled ct the work and tile way it was being con-
Quoted. Throughout the State there have been
organized over 700 Hayes and Wheeler Clubs,
numbering from 50 to $50 members each There
is moral certainty thai the Legislature will be
largely Republican, and will be constituted of
the best material to be had in the party. Col
A. e. Elithorpe has gone to Indiana to make
some of his characteristic speeches.
A1E ALHvEIAt1E tdGtlS IE E1UHl1lH OVER q
letter written by Col. 4. c. Babcock to Col Bob
1ngersoll, asking him to 70 to Indiana, and not
to give SO much attention to Ohio. The Demo-
Gratis feel exultant because Col Babcock ex-
pressed his doubts in regard to that State un-
less some active work was done there. Col.
Babcock docs not deny Che authenticity Of the
letter, and says he wrote it to help induce Col.
lngersoll to work in Indiana, aud, as d conse-
4uence, placed the matter in its darkest light
Il any one has doubts us to Col Dabcock's belier-
ing that Indiana , xil 60 Republican, al hehas to
is ready to put up from St00 to $500 that Indi-
ana will go Republican, and will be happy to see
any one who wishes to put up the shekels and
has them to lose.
