The Chicago Post believes "that
the gifted Senator from Maine,' by
which hetrefers to Blaine, twill live
to confess his errors" Considering
the adulatory incense that is burned
under his nose by a portion of the
Republican party, an adnlation that
seems very grateful to him, it is 4ues-
tionable whether the Senator from
Maine will ever get so far as to ac-
knowledge the possibility of his COM
hitting an error.

"A Bitter TRADE Against the Presi-

JEFFERSON, O., April 9-Mr. U.
H. Painter, Washington, ID. c.
DEAR SIR:-You letter of the 5th
was duly received, You ask wheth-
er | remember what | said in favor
OF President Hayes in my endeavor
to procure his nomination at the Gin
cinnati Convention. do remember
it, after what has since transpired,
with indignation and a bitterness of
goul that ! peyer felt before. You
know with what untiring zeal |
labored for the emancipation Of the
slaves of the South, and procure JUS
tice for them before and during the
time I was in Congress, and l sup
posed that Gov Hayes was in full
accord with me on this subject; but
l have been deceived, betrayed, and
even Inundated by the couFse ha
has taken, to degree that have not
language to express. During the
first months of his administration we
find him closeted with two Of the
worst and most malignant enemies
of the eolored race that can be found
in all that slave-cursed region, and
there consulting with these malefac
tors how best he can put these colored
people under the iron heel Of their
most bitter enemies, and reduce
them to a condition infinitely worse
than before they were made free. |
feel that to have emancipated these
people and then leave them unpro-
tected, would be a crime as infamous
as to have reduced them to slavery
when they were free, and Hayes
wishes to do this to men who had, at
the hazard of their lives, given him
the votes without which he never
could have had power to do this ter
rible injustice. No doubt he medi-
tates the destruction of the party that
elected him. A contemplation of
all this fills me with 'amazement and
ineXpressible Indignation. My only
consolation is that history informs
me that better men than l ever pre-
tended to be have in like manner
been deceived. Some have attempt.
ed to excuse him by saying that he
means well, but hell is paved with
just such good intentions. Yours
truly, B. F. WADE.

 Stafford has recognized and acted
 with the present legislature as It stands, end he could nos have done otherwise. Whether the census, upon which the apbortion-
 ment Of legislators Was based, Was fraudulent one or not, is quea-
 tion that he had no right to pass upon iudicialiy: that cen5uS declar- ed a majority of our population to reside north of the Giia; and that
 majority declares through their legislators that they want the Ga pital at Prescott. The Governors duty is clearly to accede to the lawful wishes of the majority and it lies not within his province to question whether such majority was property obtained or not That the discharge Of the duty was painful and expensive to him, no man can doubt; painful, be- cause during his many years resi- dence at Tucson he must have be- come attached to many friends, whose business interests are i'm paired by removal of the Capital, and because it exposes him to the criticism of all that class Of people, WhO cau nOt see that any public act is right if it conflicts with their own private interest; and expen sive because his entire accumula- ti0ns are invested in and near Tucson, and because unless he re- signs his position, he will proba bly, be required to move his resi- dence to Prescott.
