The Case Stated by p. T. Barnum.

In the exhibition business I recognize no
competitors. All public exhibitors in America
and Europe acknowledge among themselves
that never before within the knowledge of man
was there q travelling exhibition costing SO much
money, so extensive and varied, so interesting,
so instructive, so marvellous, 80 clean, so perfect
in all its appointments as my properly named
Greatest Show on Earth No other exhibit
ton pretends to have Museum, and yet my
museum department with its living giants,
dwarfs, Zulus, mysterious lady, and its thou
sands of curiosities and its mechanical, must
cal, magical wonders would alone make an ex-
hibition more instructive and marvellous than
any entire exhibition which ever travelled. My
combined exhibitions are suited to all classes
and ages, and honestly believe them to be
better worth one dollar to witness than any
dramatic, musical or other entertainment on
exhibition in existence. 1t is by far the best
show that / ever owned. I never advertise a
line or exhibit picture which does not repre-
sent exactly what show to the public. My
numerous tents are absolutely water proof so
that guarantee my visitors perfect protection
from the rain while under my tents.

been obliged to close my doors and turn many

the day exhibitions, which are precisely the

Aurora; Mr.. James Vincent, Don Bolero; Mr..
Georges. Weeks, Marasquin; Mons. Nathal as
Mourzouk; and Miss Agnes Storrs Vedder as
Pedro. The troupe is evenly balanced, with
some good dramatic material in it, and several
agreeable voices. Miss Hutchings is good
actress, and SO is Mr.. Vincent, whose Don
Bo,ero is a very funny and artistic creation.
Mr.. Weeks Marasquin lacked vlvacity, but he
has tenor voice of a robust and musical quail
ty, and one which he uses to excellent advan-
tage. Miss Murili ought to put more livel-
ness in her role to make it a standard interpre-
tation. Mons. NathaPs Mourzouk was an adj
mirable impression, full of life and force and
a helligerent humor. It was one of the best

THE FRAUD ISSUE.


That most mendacious and unprincipled
of organs of the party of spoils, and the
most earnest of defenders of its every act of
villainy, the Chicago Times, takes the GLOBE
to task for insisting that the fraud issue be
kept prominently before the people during
the pending Presidential campaign. 1t says;
The Times has not heard that nybody has
proposed to undo what was done in 1876; nor
that anyone has proposed way to punish the
doors. What was done was the decision or de-
claration of an election-an act which was an
essential and necessary part of the election IT.
self. The doors were either an official body
called returning board, or an official body
called Congress, or both. Has anyone proposed
to undo the act of the returning board, or the
act of Congress, or both; or to punish the re-
turning board or the Congress, or both? If
there be no such proposition, the Times con-
fesses its failure to discern any in the So
called fraud issue" 1t has no knowledge of
any tribunal competent to reverse history, or
before which returning board, a Congress, or
a party can be arraigned and tried upon an IN
dictment for an alleged crime which the su-
preme powers of the land, POLITICAL legislative,
executive, and the judicial, have legalized and
pronounced to be valid and right.
In other words, because there is no power
at present whereby the wrongful act of the
electoral commission can be reversed, the
Times would have that act whereby the peo-
pie were defrauded of their choice of Presi-
dent and Vice President forgotten. But the
Times misstates the facts when it asserts that
'what was done was the decision or deolara-
ton of Fan election-an act which was an
essential and necessary part of the election
ITSELF" The act was per0ersson of an
election, not decision of its result, and no
one knows the fact better than the editor of
the Times.
A parallel case: Surprising band of in
cendiaries were to burn and destroy the Office
of the TSnaes.a, Would the proprietor of that
paper advocate their exemption from punish
ment because there was no means by which
their act could be undone2 Or would he in
stall one of the chief among the criminals
in his own place, as the Republicans are now
proposing to do with one of the authors of
the electoral iniquity? It's supposable from
his argument that this is the course he would
pursue.
The fraud issue is more than mere verbal
nonsense, as the Times asserts. It presents
the question of whether majority of the
people of the United States can be disfran-
chised by means of frauds of the most gi-
gantic description and the perpetrators of
these frauds not only 60 UNPUBLISHED but be
rewarded with the highest Offices in the gift
of the republic. The GLOBE again asserts
that the outrage perpetrated by the Repub-
licans in 1876 can never be forgotten or con-
doned; that the perpetrators of the crime
must be punished, and the party that ap-
proved of and profted by it must be made
to feel the weight of the popular displeasure.

makes the republication of Judge Blacks letter

makes the republication of Judge Blacks letter
a perfect boomerang.
We suppose nobody in quite green enough
to imagine that Judge Black volunteered his
defensive letter. Mr.. Garfield found himself
in desperate situation and applied to a great
Democratic lawyer to extricate him. The Re-
publican client must have felt that he was
hard pressed when he had recourse to such aid.
But the Poland committee was then preparing
its report, and Mr.. Garfield felt that he was
in the crisis of his brilliant career. Three
days after Judge Blacks letter the Poland
committee made its report to Congress. The
report, like Judge Blacks letter, discredited
Mr.. Garfeld's testimony and certified that he
did make bargain with Cakes Ames, and did
receive money on his Credit Mobilier stock
The committee-a friendly Republican COM
mittee-in spite of MIR. Garfild's sworn state
ment to the contrary, reported as follows:
The facts in regard to Mr.. Garfield, as found
by the committee, are that he agreed with MIR.
Ames to take ten shares of Credit Mobilier
stock, but did not pay for the same. Mr..
Ames received the eighty per cent. dividend in
bonds and sold them for ninety-seven per cent
and also received the sixty per cent. cash div
dend, which, together with the price of the
stock and interest, left balance of 1929. This
sum was paid over to Mr.. Garfield by check
on the Sergeant-at-arms, and then Mr.. Garfield
understood the sum was the balance of
dividends after paying for the stock.

SIR: You are hereby objected to discontinue
the services of William A. Hayne, inspector of
customs in your district, after the Both inst.
Very respectfully,

Mr.. Hayne was one of the South Carolina
delegates to the notional convention, and
supported Gen. Grant from first to last. He
has the reputation of being an honest and
efficient officer, and the only fault he seems
to have committed was that he placed the
trust confded in him by the people of this
State above the scheming aspirations of the
disappointed secretary.

THE SOCIAL EVIL.
The Madams Arraigned for Trial-M0tiOn
for Continuance Denied.

| The MadAms Arra1gned TOT Trt8l-MOttOI
| for Continuance Denied.
| The social evil reared its uncanny head il
| the district court yesterday afternoon on thu
motion of the County Attorney that the cases
proceed to trial The madams appeared
in propria PERSONS in response to bench war
rant issued in the forenoon, and answered tt
| their names as follows Pauline Bell, Clara
Morton Matte Gale, Jennie Bateson, Kate
Hutton and Hattie Mcbride.
In the cases of Annie Oleson and NJ. j.
| France DR.. Stewart appeared and stated thai
both the defendants were confined to bed OF
| account of illness. They were excused with the
| understanding that an appearance would be
made when wanted.
CLARA Morton, who was absent when indicted
was arraigned and pleaded not guilty. She
gave the necessary bonds for her appearance.
Messrs. @. D. 'Brien and &. D. Rogers ap-
peared for the defendants, and before Other
| actien was taken the former arose and stated
| that if given time in which to prepare motios
he thought he would be able to satisfy the court
that there werev aid grounds for continu-
ance. Judge Wilkin stated that if such mo-
ton was to be made it might as we'll be pro
ceeded with at once.
Mr.. O'Brien commenced by calling attention
to the great Importance of the cases and stated
ed on issues of fact. Counsel spoke of the &C
ton of the supreme court and adverted to the
peculiar attitude occupied by the municipal
authorities towards the cases. He called at
tention to the fact that the settlement of the
points at issue involved the persons and Gus
toms of the country, and expressed the hope
that the trial would settle question which
had vexed the courts and community for years
In conclusion he urged great press OF bust
ness at the United States circuit court and re
quested that the cases be continued until the
next term of the court.
Mr.. Rogers followed with an able and ex
haustive argument for continuance. Oounse
| referred to the decision of the supreme court
and cogently reasoned that an issue which had
not been decided by that tribunal, was the
question of repugnance of the statue and ordi
| nance. Counsel stated that majority of the
justices of the supreme court had held the or
| dinance valid. The question had been argued
before two of the judges, and they had held
that the ordinance was not repugnant to the
legislative enactment of 1878, which had rati
fed the existence of the statute by providing
for distribution of the fines. The speaker
| thought that if the question had been argued
ciates a decision might have been rendered in
| favor of the defendant. He closed with g
strong plea for continuance.
County Attorney Eagan addressed the court
briefly against the continuance, making some
very forcible remarks. Judge Wilkin reviewed
the history of the cases in clear, ringing Saxon.
He held that 1t was due the defendants, and
the community, that their standing should be
established, and could see no reason for the de.
lay. The cases will be set for trial tomorrow
morning.

HARMONY At CINCINNATI.

There is yet great deal of uncertainty as
to who will be selected as the next President
of the United States by the Cincinnati con-
vention. Tilden and Seymour are generally
considered out of the way, yet party exigen-
cies may demand the taking up of either
of them. But at present they may both be
reckoned as among the candidates that were
and the probabilities are that they will not
be voted for by any considerable number of
delegates even on the first ballot.
The candidates that at present seem to
be most prominent before the convention,
are Payne and Thurman, of Ohio, Bayard,
of Delaware, Hendricks, of Indiana, and
Field, of California. Each has q warm
following, though neither may succeed in
carrying off the prize, as there may be COM
binations effected which will defeat the best
laid plans of their supporters. But if even
all of these should be thrown aside in favor
of more available man, there appears to
be no danger that there will be any serious
controversy that will jeopardize the success
of the ticket that may be eventually selected.
The controversy has thus far been carried
forward with the utmost good nature.
Though the rivalries are active, they partake
but little of the bitterness that characterized
the proceedings of the Chicago convention.
In the multitudes of candidates at Cincin-
natl there is safety. There is little l1keli-
hood that any of them will have sufficient
individual strength to organize a bolt or to
create any serious disafection in the ranks
of the party. Each will feel under obliga-
tions to submit to the will of the majority,
and to bring pressure to bear upon all 9th
ers in favor of the same course. The con-
sequence will be that when the convention
concludes its work the wounds caused during
it's progress will have already healed, and the
party will enter upon the campaign with 9
determination to succeed in November
whatever the cost, and having won the bat.
tie to be assured of reaping its rewards.
Hhe proceedings of the convention thus
far, as well as the disposition manifested by
the delegates outside, is guarantee of har-
mony in the canvass. All the candidates
are spoken of courteousy by the supporters
of their rivals, their abilities and their claims
are admitted on every hand, and there is
naught but good feeling in any direction
This is good augury of the future-a guar
sntee that private grievances will not be
permitted to interfere with the welfare OF
the party or the country. With such con-
vention, composed of such eminent and pa
triotio men, we need fear nothing but rest
In the full consciousness that all possible
will be done to drive from places of power
the horde of cormorants who have for so
many years been preying upon the vitals OF
