TO the sons of Cakes Ames, who are plying
US with copies of their defense of their father
with requests TO publish it, we have a simple
suggestion to make. While they insist that
their father, in the whole credit mobilier
business, bore straightforward and honora-
BILE part they also insist that Jas. A. Garfield
is equally innocent of wrong in the matter
Now before we can publish their paper we
should like to have them explain one or two
little points On Dec. H. 1872, page q of the
report of the testimony In the Credit Mobilier
casel Mr. Cakes Ames says: "As to Mr.. Gar
field, agreed to get ten shares of stock
for him and hold 1t until he could pay for It, y
Jan. IA, 1878, fully advised of what Mr. Cakes
Ames had SAID, Mr.. Garfield SAID II never
owned, received, or agreed to receive any
stock of the Credit Moblier or OF the Union
Pacific Railroad, nor any dividends or profits
arising from either of them" Yet Jan %
eight days afterwards, Mr.. Cakes Ames, fully
advised of what Garfield had sworn to, testi
fled, page 29j): "That agreement with Gar
field was made in December 1867 or in Jan
uary 1SGS-about that timc-about the time
had these conversations with all OF them
In June / received dividend or his Gar
fields stock of 5000, which left balance due
him of 1929, which l paid him" Now moth
ing is palmer that in all this swearing either
Cakes Ames or Mr.. Garfield led-that is, was
guilty of perjury. What we have to suggest
to the sons of Mr. Cakes Ames is, that before
they ask editors to publish their defense they
offer some explanation of this counterswear.
ing; in short, that they tell us plainly wheth-
err of the twan-Oakes Ames or Garfield did
this stalwart lying.

Gen. w. B. Anderson, of Mt. Vernon. H.,
who for some years past has been the recog-

Illinois, and as such was sent to congress In
1874, and in 1876 came within three votes of

THE COLUMBIAN AND DEMOCRAT, BLOONSBURG COZ
Artemus Ward.

Mr. Toolc, who was one of Artemus
Wards most intimate friends in London,
says that he told him the following story:
lie went to a lecture ut II remote place,
where his face was not known. He was
little late; the audience became impa-
tient, and began to stamp with their feet
and to whistle. by and by Ward came
out and began to move about the plat
form, dusting the chairs and desk. The
people took him for 'supe, and became
still more inpatient. Presently he turn
cd around, dropped the dust cloth, and
said: Now, having busted the chairs, |
will begin my lecture Many of the
Jokes he made were not so good as this,
but no doubt, served to amusc himself
and others. An acquaintance told me
that he was once riding in Broadway
omnibus when Browne got in, and, on
being asked for his fare, inquired of the
driver if he could change five dollars.
The driver said he could not, stopped
the coach, and requested Ward to get
out. Upon this Ward became very in
dignant. Why should he get out? BE
cause ye had not the proper fare. But
have he said; i never said hadn't
ten cents. Il only asked if you could
change five dollars. e s. Nddal,
