dale for President, whom member Of Con-
| gfess, dRbhled ia Credit MUbiler stock, which
was placed By Cakes Ames where il would do
most good and secure tho most favorable Leg
islaiion for the company.
That Gen. Garfield, When member Of
Congress, swore before the Poland committee
that he never owned, received or agreed TO
receive any Credit Mohilier stock nor any
dividends nor profits arising thereir0m, aud
nfterward admitted and tried 10 explain away
the soft impeachment.
That Gen. Garfield, when a member Of
Congress and chairman Of the Committee on
Appropriations, accepted fee Of 5000
from the De Goyler pavement ring to aid them
in securing contract from the Board OF Pub
lie Works Of the District Of Columbia.
That all these charges against Gen. Garfield
are established BY Republican testimony, and
indisputable proof Of the same comes entirely
from Republican sources.
That no satisfactory denial or explanation
Of these charges has been made by Gen. Gar
field or any OF his friends, and that in the alb
sence Of such denial they stand before the
country as the learly.eslablished record OF
the Republican candidate
That the New York Tribune, on the 10th
Of February, 1879, said that Gen. Garfield
''had ten shares Of Credit Mohilier stock; new
eF paid dollar; received $329, which, aifer
the investigation began, he was anxious TO
have considered as a loan from Mr.. Ames to
himself"
That the New York Times, on the 20lh Of
February, 1873, distinctly stated that Gen.
Garfield presented Almost distressing figure, =
and that 'shis participation in the Credit Mo.
bilier affair was complicated by the most un.
fortunate contradictions Of testimony
That the New York Tribune and the New
| York Times, after severely denouneing Gen.
Garfield for the "disgracefnl transaction
aforesaid, now pronounce him truly good
citizen aud enthusiastically support him for
the Office once held By, Washington, and are
doing so to-day in the faee Of the most over
whelming testimony furnished by themselves
Of the guilt of the said Gen. Garfield.
