Ex-CoNGREssMAN Hewitt, of New
York, struck the right nail on the
head in a speech at Irving Hall on
Thursday night. Speaking Of the
Garfeld-Morey letter, be said he re.
gsrded the signature as genuine. but
whether it was a forgery or not,
General Garfield is not q man who
has any right TO expec: that any
democrat will believe bis unsupported
testimony" That ia the whole bust
meas in nutshell, and republicans
appreciate the fact. Garfield .
record for truth and veracity is such
that his party cannot rest on his
simple denial that be wrote the
Chinese letter. His friends rush to
ais support with oorroborative teeth
mony. Garfield swore once: II
never owned, received, or sgreed to
receive any stock of the Credit
Mobilier or of the Union Pacific
Railroad, nor any dividend or profits
arising from either Of them" A
committee. the msjority OF the mem
hers Of which were his political par
tisans, after a thorough investigation,
did find aid report in reference 10
Mr.. Garfield, that, "He agreed with
Mr.. Ames to take ten shares of Credit
Mobilier stock, but did not psy for
the same. Mr.. Ames received the
so per cent. dividend in bonds and
cold them for 81 per cent, and also
received the 60 per cent. cash divi-
dend, which together paid the price
Of the stock and interest, and left a
balance of 1929. This sum aoas paid
opsr to Nr. Garfield by a check on the
Sergeantat-arms, and Mr.. Garfield
then understood This sum aods the
balance of diUtdends after paying for
the stock" Mr.. Garfsld ought not
to expect democrats to believe him
after this, and be does not, nor do the
republicans, who are spending 90
much time and money to prove that
be did not lie when he said the Morey
letter was a forgery.

One OF the most contemplate
tricks OF which the republicans have
been guilty in this campaign is the
disreputabis, cowardiy say in which
thsy have sssailed the character OF
General Rosecrsns. The general is
democratic candidate for Congress in
California, and a Hancock supporter,
for which Ofenses he has been shame
fully abused by the radical press and
party. The ether day Garfield made
it convenient to meet q reporter, snd
to him utter mean ISLANDERS OF Rose
Grams, who had been his warm per-
sonal friend. The latest exhibition OF
republican spite and vindictivsDess is
the connecting of Rosecrans with the
Gsrfeld-Morey letter forgery, chsrg.
ing that the general sent east
q Garfield letter that be had,
as a specimen of G4rield's hand
writing for Philip to initiate. In an
interview, published elsewhere, Gen.
RosecEans emphsticalIy denies the
truth OF the cowardiy accusation, and
unlike Garfeld's, his denial will moi
have to be supported by other testi-
moDy. The general took occasion,
during the interview, TO hit the re-
publican nominee a good square blow
in return for the latter's meanness in
referring to him q few days age.
Said Rosecrans: al never yet have
attacked Garfield, but l do now, and
l pronounce him a fraud-sn unnlit-
igated fraud"

Rag Baby Troubles.

Indianapolis, 29.-Stephen D. Dillaye,
head and front OF the green back move
ment in this state, who has been accused
of intending to sell out to the democrats,
whose letter severely denouncing Weaver
for betrsying the greenback cause was
published by one Lum, now says be was
imposed On by manufactured reports,
kilograms, evidence and stories, and by
Lum himself, and made 10 believe in
Weaver's guilt. In this belief, yet
guarded by the hope that he might be
mistaken, he sat down and wrote private,
confidential note to Lum, which he, in
violation of all honor and decency, pub
lished in part, by Psrbled extracts. He
is fully satisfied that the whole scheme
was concocted plaR to impose on him.
he promises full statement shortly
which will Vindicste Weaver. He closes
by expressing his belief that the green
back cause will prevail sooner or later.
