December 10th, we find the plan has
struck a suag. The job was too many
for them. Fogg has advised an appeal
to the Constitutions" House which was
then all figured out, and mentally count
cd in. Haskell does not, evidently, fully
understand the hidden meaning IN this
order. He is not aware of the iorma-
ton of that packed tribunal where he IS
remanded for justice, for he says he will
con,es, before the House. If Fogg believes
he has sure thing" He don't want
to run any risks as if that were posi-
BILE before the Constitutional House,.
Why. Because he has spent all his
money before coming to this point. lie
has put it all gu, in the campaign. for
votes. and didn, save any for the pnr-
pose of buying certificates. lie has
fioa,ed the Greenback ship in his district
for several years, and don't wish 10 lay
on, anv more funds on uncertainties.
Well. that is true. Haskell had done
all the work and paid all the money until
las, fall, when a few played GU, Demo
cratic politicians who could never get
anything in their own party. jumped on
board. paid their passage money and ran
off with the offices, not even leaving n
bogus certificate for poor Haskell. Here
is the confession Of employing money IN
the campaign, by one of the pure, poor
Greenbackers.

PENNSYLVANIA FOR BLAINE.

The New York Tribune last week sd-
dressed circular letter 10 the Republican
Committeeman OF Pennsylvania, asking
them to give their first aud second choice
Tor President or the United States. There
are 2Cco or these committeeman in the
state, and all the Blaine men appear TO
Rave spoken AZ once. Answers had been
received Saturday from 267, about one
t..nth of the whole number. The Tribune
las received AL more responses from the
Republican committeeman ofPennsylvania,
- the question respecting their choice for
the Presidency. They show remarkable
unanimity for Mr.. Blaine. The whole

Total.

This is n little more than fourth Of the
whole number OF committeeman in the
state. A Philadelphia, being asked TO
account for Mr.. Blaine's popularity in his
state replied, Il account for it in two
,yays first. the anti-third-term sentiment
naturally rallies around him as the strong
st candidate TO oppose TO Grant; and
second, we are all proud of him As Penn

out in Washington county, you know; and
though he lives in Maine we regard him as
:, better representative OF our ideas and

He also. at the same time, sends a
protest against counting the vote of Beth
Ell: and says. if the protes, is not right,
he will sign such one as Fogg will pre-
pare. These papers were evidently to be
used secretly before the Governor and
Council. for he SAYS; There Is no one

Ii will be remembered that the returns

Nov. 18th, and no republican was allowed
to see them for two weeks thereafter. Nov.
18th Gov. Garcelon informed the republic
