The affidavit Of two of the selectmen
of Stoneham proved that the returns were
sighed by them 10 blank and that the clerk
took them home with him and filled them
up, the selectmen having no knowledge Of
what they contained. This rejection caus-
cd the election of o. N. Bradbury in place
of the Republican candidate. Of

1t did not cause the election of o. N.
Bradbury, Nothing but votes can cause
the election of anybody. 1t did cause the
certifcation of o. N. Bradbury. The
affidavit referred to was an ex-parte affair,
and one of the parties knew nothing Of
it till after 1t had been acted upon by the
Governor and Council. The Republican
candidate was not notified to appear nor
was he given hearing in the case.
These Fusion selectmen were allowed to
swear away their first certificate simply

A CONFEDERATE APPLIES FOR A
PENSION.

The Pension Bureau at Washington has
lust received an application for a pension
made by Robert Hanna, a Confederate
soldier who lost an arm while IN the
Fifteenth Regiment of South Carolina
Volunteers. He claims that he was
wounded in an engagement with the
Federals and that his arm was amputated
in consequence. Mr.. Hanna is rather
premature. He has doubtless come to
the conclusion that Democratic Congress
which has tried TO pension the survivors
Of the Mexican war who afterwards en-
gagged in the Rebellion would proceed to
pension men who had fit into the war
on the Confederate side. 1t may be that
Mr.. Hanna came across some account OF
the refusal of the Democratic Senators to
bar jeff Davis from the benefits Of the
pension laws and jumped at the con-
clusion that il only failed because there
was a small Republican majority in the
Senate, which, since that date, has disap-
peared and which can now be carried
through Congress, both houses being
Democratic. Mr.. Hanna will do well
to wait until there is Democratic Gov
eminent. He may grow weary with
waiting, but has no other ground to hope
that his name as a man who fought to
destroy his country will be placed upon
the pesnion rolls beside the name OF the
man who defended it. Indeed. he can
scarcely expect that the first Democratic
Administration would dare to recognize
him as entitled to pension, but he can
rely upon a second one.

For OWNERS or BANK SroCK.-The
holders OF national bank stock sometimes
receive something not SO pleasant as divi-
dends. The stockholders OF the wrecked
First National Bank OF Newark, n. j.,
have recently had disagreeable communi-
cation from Controller Knox, in the shape
Of q peremptory demand, on penalty OF
suit, for payment, in equal installments at
80 and 60 days, OF an assessment equal to
the amount of their stock. One stock
holder is called upon for $4,000, one for
sl3, 500, two for sl2 800 each, ! clergyman
for IS, 400; niue persons hold one=third Of
the 5000 shares, and only thirty-tve of the
lQ7 stockholders own less than ten. The
liability Is limited to the par value OF
shares held, and Is several but not joint !;
each holder is thus liable for himself and
not for another. The Controller cannot
select certain responsible men and make
them pay the deficit, as can he done by a
creditor of firm or Of holder OF en-
dorsed paper; he cannot do this even up
to the limit of their legal liability, but
must call upon the whole number Of stock
holders, regardless OF their circumstances
for the amount OF their holdings, for uni
form rate OF assessment. Greenback ora
tors who are fond Of depicting the I'M
alleged pleasure Of the owners of National
Bank stock should not forget to mention
this other side Of the story.
Oxford Democrat. [volume] (Paris, Me.) 1833-1933, 1880-08-10

MORE FusIoN.-The Democrats of the
first Congressional District have nominal
ed Gen. S. j. Anderson as their candidate.
The Greenback convention endorsed the
nomination. There was Greenback
bolt.
The Greenbackers of the third District
have nominated William Philbrick, of
Skowhegan, and the Democrats have en-
dorsed the nomination.
In the fifth District, the Democrats
have endorsed the nomination of Murch,
the Greenback Representative of last
term.

WHY GARFIELD LEFT THE ARMY
FOR CONGRESS.

1t is somewhat singular to find Dem
ocrS,ic paper bringing it as serious
charge against Gen. Garfield that he
resigned from the army to accept seat
in Congress. Eighteen years ago, leav-
ing the army was pretty sure passport
to Democratic confidence. But the fact
is that Garfield, after two years splendid
service on the field, during which he earn
ed by hard blows, the distinguished pro-
motion which he received, was elected to
Congress from the Western Reserve by
5000 majority. 1t was at time when
the Democrats had carried New York and
made gains elsewhere on Congressman.
and Pres. Lincoln was ANXIOUS to have
the Union side in Congress as strong as
possible. 1t was in accordance with his
wish that Gen. Garfield resigned his COM
mission and took his place in the House.
Pres. Lincoln knew that he was a good
rebel fighter. and placed him where he
most needed him. From fighting rebels
in arms, he took to fighting the more
cowardly rebels at home and proved him.
self equally formidable in the former as in
the field.-Haryord Co,ran.

THE LATEST VICTIM noticing the
death of Mrs. Dixon, wife Of the man
who was murdered by Barksdale, the
Vicksburg Herald Dem. says:
"Thgs die the troken-hearted. This Is
all the dear devoted friends OF the late Mrs.
III. NJ. Dixon Of Yazoo can say ofthe silent
sufferer whom death has relieved. God
grant that Southern civilization shall need
no more female martyrs. Let the dead
past bury its dead"
And yet the murderer not only went
unwhipped by justice, but is county Of
ficer, while the murderer of Ohisolm has
been appointed to office by Governor
Stone. There is not Democratic leader
in the South who dares denounce such
crimes as the murder Of Dixon, because
when such offences are denounced and the
murderers are punished, there will be a
chance for the crushed majority in Mis-
sissippi to vote, and when it votes the
Democratic leaders will So to the rear.

THE PARTY OF THE SOUTH"

One of the most prominent of the
Western Democrats who have cut loose
from their party and announced their
purpose TO support General Garfield IS
the Hon. Philo 5. Orion of Wisconsin.
He has been a e-long Democrat. In
1861 he was the Democratic candidate
for Attorney General of the State; in
1868 the Democrats elected him Prose
cutting Attorney of Lafayette County; IN
1864, he was delegate TO the National
Democratic Convention; in 1870 he was
elected County Judge by the Democrats,
and later they voted for him as Circuit
Judge: and in 1876 he was the Demo-
cratic candidate for Congress. In his
letter explaining his course he vigorously
arraigns. the party with which he has
been hitherto connected, shows the hol-
lowness Of It's pretenses as 10 civil service
and revenue reform by contrasting It's
professions with its performances, and
puts these very pertinent questions with
regard 70 the Democracy:

can people 20 place the Republic In the
control OF this party OF the South: VIII

The New Haven Union, in apologizing
for deserving the Greenbackers, says, by
way OF Justification, that its editors years
ago advocated Greenbackism, when many
eminent Greenbackers Of today were then
preaching hard money. Even Judas was
a follower of the true doctrine while Saul
was on his way to Damascus. - Scion
Chase.
Like most Fusionists, Uncle Scion is
little rusty on Scripture. We had under
stood that Judas went out and hanged
himself before Christ was crucifed, and
that Saufs journey to Damascus was not
begun until some time after the resur.
