The Washington correspondent of the
Chicago Times is authority for the state
ment that Hayes has been tampering with
the witness Darrall. He states that Hayes
called Darrall to a conference just before he
went upon the stand before the Potter COM
mittee, and was again summoned to the
Presidential presence as soon as the direct
examination had concluded, and that at the
last conference he had received the promise
of a lucrative Office This may account in
some degree for the extreme reluctance of
Darrall to answer certain questions of an
important nature, and for his singular lapses
of memory. This style of spiking the
enemy's guns may be legitimate, but it will
not improve the Presidents case one whit.
His appointment of Marks, whose testimony
was regarded as important, just OH the eve
of his being called before the committee, has
already given rise to severe criticism, and if
he is to continue the policy he need not
claim the leniency that has heretofore been
conspicuous in the committees treatment of
him.

asked Heathcote to join him in building line
fence between the two farms. This Heathcoate
would not do About year ago, having made
up his mind that he wanted no fur

Barnes built the proposed fence himself, plac-
ing it inside the dividing line far enough to
leave roadway between the two farms, said
road being altogether on land owned by Mr.. B.
Last season, out of pity for an old man who
had patch Of corn in Heathcoate's field, Mr..
Barnes allowed him to join the fences. thus

right, and proceeded to fence up the cartway

why are witnesses surrounded, from the

Il POSITIVE GOOD,

electoral frauds in Louisiana and Florida
may result, it cannot fail in the accomplish
ment of some good in exposing and driving
from public life the rascally crowd of dis
honest politicians who have for SO long a
time cursed the State of Louisiana. That
the affairs of that unhappy State have been
in the hands of disreputable tricksters for
years has been matter of public notoriety,
but the depth of their depravity has never
been fathomed heretofore.
Anderson, who figures in very unenvi-
able role, is simply an outgrowth of the
necessities of the times, just as fungus is
the legitimate outgrowth OF disease in the
body of plant. Such character could not
be developed, nor could it exist, in healthy
political atmosphere. A corrupt tree cannot
bring forth good fruit. There was de-
mand for his rascality, otherwise he would
have committed none. His wares were
offered in the open market, and he has
numbered among his patrons some dis
tinguished names. Sherman, Matthews and
Harlan, purchased of him and became
partsceps c1i'n5nis in his evil doings. Pack
ard and Nash entered into a corrupt bargain
with him by which they gave to
the world positive proof of their
own rascality. Darrall wanted his influence,
and knowing the nature of his capitalize
leverage he was prepared to bring to bear
upon the Notwithstanding, too, exposed
his inherent mendacity. Kellogg, Pitkin,
Smith, and the entire crew of radical Office
seekers and ballot-box manipulators we're
caught in his net and landed high and dry,
convicted scoundrels, reeking with all man
ner of corruption and dishonesty. The un-
blushing effrontery with which these fellows
tell of their dishonest bargains is one of the
marvels of modern politics. There was a
time when dishonesty in politics was scorned
and the perpetrators condemned, but that
time seems to have passed away forever, at
least during the supremacy of the party of
fraud and force that now holds the reins of
power.
While the proved existence of such an
infamous element in American politics mus!
be humiliating to every honest man, great
benefit must ensue from the exposure OF
their sinuous ways. Not one of the crew
can ever again appear before the people and
claim their suffrages. Self-oonvicted, for the
most part, of shameless disregard of the
! will of the people, adopting the most ques.
| tionable means of attaining their ends, they
will he consigned forever to obloquy and

thews must go to his grave with the burden
of guilt upon his conscience, and the rest Of
the gang, too depraved and hardened in in.
iquity to feel remorse, may yet be made t.
feel the weight of public indignation. Tt
drive these men from political life is to con

for they are but human vipers, warmed il
the public bosom only to sting their too in
