Making Promises and Breaking Them-A West
ern Delegation Deceived.
Washington, March 2s-Hayes has shown re.
markable success for a week past in destroying
such reputation for truth telling as he may have
had among Republicans whose previous acquain.
tance with him had been slight Yesterday fore.
noon Senator Angus Cameron Of Wisconsin, Sen.
ator Paddock of Nebraska, aud several represen-
tauVes from the former State called on Hayes to
press their claims Of Amasa Boyd, formerly q
member of Congress from Wisconsin, for the reg.
istracy left vacant by Mr., AlliSons death. Hayes
heard the delegation, took cOpious notes, and
when allusion was made to BOyd's service in the
same Congress with Hayes, he spoke of his ac'
quaintanCe with Boyd and said he would be the
right man for Register, The delegation went back
10 the Capitol, meeting Boyd on the way, and
telling him he was pretty sure to get the nomina-
tlon, to find that Hayes had sent down Scofeld's
name for the office, and doubtless had Scofeds
acceptance on the table at which he received the
delegation, Harry White OF Pennsylvania, had
a like experience in recommending Sullivan for
the same place, and Burnside says that Hayes
promised him the next vacancy in the pay de
partment, for his friend and old aid promise
that was broken by the nomination of Smith
Burnside's steady support of Hayes makes this
all the harder to bear, and will probably make 1t
no easier to confirm Smith.
