Pennsylvania politics seem to be very much
mixed just now, in consequence of the difficult
Ties old Simon Cameron meets with in trans
ferring the estate in fee simple to Don, his
silest born and natural successor. Don is
safd to be "hawty" and reserved, and not to
understand the value Of hearty grip Of the
hand and cordial exuberance and effiores-
cence of feeling towards the country dele
gate, and of drinks and free lunch as concilia-
tory of the ward hummer. The result is
threatening to the Cameron dynasty, and the
stgallant Governor" Hartranft, whose war
record comprised, as its most glorious
achievement, the hanging of Mrs. Surratt,

Senator John j. Patterson has been
interviewed by reporter of the Wash
ington National Republican. Tue in-
terview, as published in the paper men
toned, reads as follows:
Reporter. Mr.. Senator, now that this
matter of South Carolina dispute has
been disposed of, | would like to ask
you something that mig ht tend to give
the public q correct idea of the position
you have occupied IN the matter and
of the position you propose 10 observe
in the future
Senator Patterson. Well, sir; | have
often been grossly misreprtsented on
this subject. Expressions and senti-
nIents have been attributed 20 me that
| never uttered. have had 20 inter
view xith soy one, and have refused to
allow myself to be Interviewed by any
newspaper correspondent, aud those
reported interviews with NE are untrue.
THIS is the FIRST time that have con
sented to be interviewed. Now, in the
first instance, L hsve been reported as
being opposed 10 the withdrawal OF the
United States troops from the State
house at Colum bia, under the circum-
stances. This is a mistake. | feared
that the Withdrawal of the troops at
this time would be misunderstood by
our friends aud discourage them. 1t
was the moral effect of such an action
taken upon the demand of Hampton
which | resisted. | wanted 1t done by
consent of both the claimants, and al
ter an agreement made with the Presi-
dent that the public peace was TO be
maintained during tae legal contest that
wssto be made for the Office Of Governor.
When Hampton came here aud made
that pledge to the President | then in
sisted that Gov. Chamberlain should
return to South Carolina, relying upon
the pledges of Mr.. Hampton to keep
the peace, and test his tile tLereto
before the courts and the Legislature.
| believe Gov. Hampton is an honOra-
bic man, and will abide by the pledges
that be made TO President Hayes and
the people of the North. l held that
the only necessity Of the troops there
was 10 preserve fhe peace, and never
Intended fhst ths troops should de-
eide the question as to who was Gov
ernor. After the President decided "a
Withdraw the troops Gov. Chamberlain
announced to his friends that he would
give up the contest and would not
make any further effort TO hold tine of
fice, his idea being that with the with
draWsl of the troops he should make 4
surrender. This was his determine
tion before be left Washington to gc
to New York.
Reporter. How about your inter
view with Gov. Hampton that has Otter
been referred TO in the papers
Juniata sentinel and Republican. [volume] (Mifflintown, Juniata County, Pa.) 1873-1955, 1877-04-25

have been an easy matter to elect @
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court
Who would be an upright and conci
entious man, and who would no doubt
have decided the question impair iially
and on its merits, aud bis decision
would have ended the matter. No
man ever received any credit for sur
rendering fort Ii the decision had
been in favor of Cham berlain it would
have been according to law, and sgaiust
which Hampton could have offered
no resistance, because be had already
given his word to the President and
to the world to abide by legal remedies
only. II Hampton had succeeded i,
would have given him a legal title to
the Office, which be does not now pos
ses, as the surrender of hamberlain,
upon the removal Of the troops from
the State House, does not settle the
question of the legal title to the Office.
Chamberlain still claims to be Cover
nor, and only yields because be has no
power to further exercise the duties Of
tue Office against the pressure that
would be brought against him BY
Hampton.
Reporter. Who do you think in the
long run would nave been made Cover
nor of the State if the matter had been
referred to the courts or the Legisla-
turei
Senator p. / cannot say, hut Clam
berlain's friends were afraid that it
would be decided in favor OF Hampton.
Reporter. Did not Chamberlain
change his mind when be returned
from New York.
Senator p. Yea, sir, when he return.
ed from New York be said be had
made up his mind to remain in the
Office until be VAS ousted BY the legal
process which Hampton bad boasted
be would follow.
Reporter. To what influence do you
attribute this change in Mr.. Chamber.
lain's rurposei
Senator p. l do not know, only
that be was acting upon the advice OF
friends, there and here.
Reporter. Would you mind men.
tioning who those friends are.
Senator p. l do not know who
they were. told him that it was the
honorable course for him TO pursue,
and it was the one which bis party had
a right to expect of him.
Reporter. Well how do you ac-
count for his action in so suddenly
leaving the State bouse,
Senator p. NJ. Cham iberlsin return
ed to South Carolina, aud his action
there is, Of c"urse known to all. l
may here state that since be has gone
back 10 columbus | have received no
information from hin except what |
have seen in the newspapers aud one
despatch on the Gay he surrendered,
stating that be had uade up bis mind
to surrender, but know nothing OF
the reasons that prompted him to do i;
presume however. it was owing to
the pauic among his party friends down
there WHO made HIM believe that it
was hopeless contest and productive
of no good.
HE WILL NOT OPPOSE THE ADMINS
TRATION.

Reporter. For what purpose
( WHY HE CALLED UPON GENERAL
HAMPTON.
/ Senator 2. desired to see Govern
! or Hampton to ask him if he intended
to preserve the peace In South Carolina
and protect ali cltIzcns alike in their
civil and political rights, and i, be pro-
posed that Republicans should be pro-
tected there, and give US a fair aud
honest election hereafter. Governor
Hampton said that he intended to see
every man in the State protected, and
that he wanted the people OF the State
to give HIM trial, and if be did not
keep his pledges, why. then, they
would have an opportunity next year
when the election came around to show

like to be supported by all the people
of the State, Republicans and Demo
Gratis alike, in his efforts to advance the
interests Of the State. told him thar
Governor Cham berlain had determined
that be would surrender, and that l
supposed he Hampton) would be Gov
eruor without any further opposition,

a mistake, because by surrendering

upon the troops to sustain his title,
whereas he shonId resor: 10 the courts

in the case TO sustain him.
Reporter. Then you disapprore Of
o. the action of MIR. Chamberlain iu
leaving the State house when the CnI-
ted States troops were withdrawn.
Senator z. Yes, sir, because it pla-
ces US in false position. We repre-
seuted that troops were only necessary
to preserve the peace, aud now since
Governor Hampton has pledged bim-
self to do that, and was fulfilling the
pledge, We should rely upon that and
resort 10 the courts. Mr.. Chamber
lain owes it to himself aud the Repub-
lican party of South Carolina to test
his title to the Office be claimed before
the courts aud the Legislature, and if
he lost the case his own party would
have been better satisfied, and the
Democrats In South Carolina would
have had no reason to complain- as
every suitor has right 20 resort to
every legal remedy to gain his case and
secure his rights. | told Governor
Hampton that for my part | was will

peace and the prosperity of the State

Reporter. Suppose that Mr.. Cham
berlain had insisted upou his legal de-
fense aud the matter was thrown into
the Legislature, how could you have
arranged a Legislature to have juris
diction of the matter whose decision
would be acceptable to all parties.
Senator p. In the first place, |
think Legislature acceptable to all
could have been obtained in South
Carolina much more easily than in
Louisiana, where the same thing is be-
ing attempted. When that Legis a.

that if he could control his party he
