examine Mr.. Garfield. With what eff
feet he conducted the cross-examination
will now be seen:
Question by Mr.. Nickerson-Gen. Garfield.
did you file with the Bosrd of Public Works of
this District brief or oprni'n, written. print
ed, or otherwise, upon the subject of the De
Goiyar pavementp'
This plain and direct question was
evaded at first, because Garfield knew
the files of the Board would be brought
in to confront him if he answered in
the affirmative. He squirmed under
the probe, lodged, equivocated, and fl
nally was required to answer categOri-
cally. And this is his answer:
'Gsrfeld-I could not say did.
"Nickerson-Did you at any time appear
before the Board and make any argument
..Garield-I do not resnonber that did;
but old speak to Cow pherd on the sub
jec.: giving my ooinio1k ITS favor"
If there was b as the Nation
alleges, what became of it? If prepar-
ed at all, as the Nation assumes. it was
for the Board of Public Works. Ac-
cording to the Nation, Mr.. Garfield got
five thousand dollars for that brief; but
when Garfield is compelled to speak in
his own behalf, and with the certainty
of detection The spoke falsely, he "could
not say" he filed the pretended dOcu-
ment. And when pressed further by
the inquiry whether he had ever APP
peared before the Board and made any
argument whatever, he replied, 81 do
not remember that did"
So, by Mr.. Garfield's own admission,
the 'brief'' and the argument" disap-
pear altogether. What, then, was he
paid five thousand dollars for? He re-
ceived that money on the 18th Of July,
1872, and six weeks after Congress met
in the following winter, that is to say,
between the Sth of January and the Sd
of March. 1873, three millions and
half of dollars were voted to the Wash
ington Ring by his Influence as Chair
man of the Appropriations Committee.
No sophistry, no cunning theories, no
artful half truths, no partisan colo ing,
can disturb these solid facts, or explain
away the glaring and mOnstrous bride.
Garfield stands convicted, and whoever
supports his candidacy must support
him with the full knowledge that he is

The latest Radical roorback is that
Gen. Hancock conspired with McClel-
Ian. Fitz John Porter, "Baldy" Smith
and others to depose President Lincoln,
because of the order removing McClel-
Ian from the command of the Army of
the Potomac. The story runs that the
proposition emanated from Gen. Han
cock himself, who insisted that the
army should at once be marched on
Washington to GUST both Lincoln and
Stanton. Gen. Grant is said to know
about the matter, and Eat the proper
time the whole story will be told to an
astonished public" When a campaign
yarn of this transparent character is
set adoat, care should be taken that it
may not appear too preposterous. 1t
seems that the Garfield people have
two bureaus at work, and their labors
do not consist. For instance, the very
day the above story was published In
the East, a Western paper contained
some information for the especial BEN
eft of the "rebels." It was in the
form Of q military order, written by
Iron County register. [volume] (Ironton, Iron County, Mo.) 1867-1965, 1880-07-15

Gen. Hancock upon the murder of Mr..
Lincoln, expressing the utmost horror
for that bloody deed. condemning it as
an offshoot of rebellion and slavery,
and urging the negroes Of the District
and Virginia to assist In the capture of
the assassin. Now this last fact should
have appeared, if at all, little later on
in the campaign. Why it did appear
is a mystery, but certainly1t is out of
place just now, when wide circulation
is being given to the reported "conspir-
acy." The two things don't cohere, as
it were. Evidently the bureaus are
being run by bunglers.

The Cincinnati Gazette, extreme
Radical, not only considers Wisconsin
a doubtful State for the Republicans,
but declares the situation there threat
ening ard dangerous in the extreme to
its party. The Greenbackers have
been working quietly and earnestly,
and expect to poll as large vote as
when Allis, Greenbacker, ran for Gov
ernor, when they got over $4,000 votes.
This, added to the Democratic votes
and the two parties have resolved to
support a joint electoral ticket-will
leave the Republicans in a minority.
even if the Democrats do not increase
their vote as they expect to do. This,
the Gazette declares, has become the
sensation of the hour in Wisconsin,
and alarms the Republicans as much
as it interests the Democrats.

1t was a Bride, Not q Fee.
From the N. Y. Sun. |

From rne N. l.. sun.
The eminent lawyer who, according
to the Springfield Republican, has
been "hired" by the Nation to exanl-
inc Mr.. Garfie!d's record with view
to acquitting him for election purposes,
does not appear to the best advantage
in his scheme of defence. In regard to
the De Golyer case, the public mind
cannot be confused or diverted from
the main point, the five-thOusand-dol-
lar bride, by uneandid and conflicting
statements. Take the following illus
tratiOns from the Nations labored de-
fence of the Republican candidate:
He Parsons] a,ked Gen IRA fl i'd TO take
his pace. attorney to argue the merits of
the De COVER patent. AS above shown. there
was no ming else to argue. He lHarield] ex-
ahmed the var Gus patents and MADE HIS
PRESENTATION OF THE CASE TO THE BOARD,
ami VS. paid ,or it. aud there his relations to
the subject ended"
And little further on the eminent
counsel for Gen. Garfield says:
Gen. Garfield has been severely assailed,
too because he MADE NO FORMAL ARGUMENT
BEFORE THE BOARD AS WHOLE, AID tie IN
fereUce has been drawn from this that he
knew he cli not render full service for his fee.
But an oral argument wOul hardly have ad-
ded anything to he value of his BRIEF, and,
having MADE THE BRIEF, we think he was
fully justified. by forensic custom, i'll thinking
tn u he had me enou h."
The Nation first alleges that Garfield
"matie his presentation of the case to the
Board and was paid for it," and then as
serts that she made no formal argument
before the Board as a whole" He Ell
ther did or did not appear before the
Board to make an argument" or a
presentation. The Nation must
choose between its own contradictions.
But, says our contemporary, IAN oral
argument would hardly have added
anything to the value of his brief, and
having made the brief, he was justified
in thinking he had done enough"
This mysterious brief figures i'm all
the same defences of the bribed Con-
gresham. Where is it? Who ever
saw it? Upon what proof does the
Nation assume that he made a brief?
1t is distinctly alleged as a fact, and a
most material fact, too, in the so-called
"case," without particle of evidence
that it ever existed, except i'm the inn
agination of the man who tried to COW
er his bribe under that sham. And
even be himself, when cornered and
threatened with an exposure of bald
perjury, had to beat a hasty retreat
from his own sworn declarations.
Garfield did swear before the Real
Estate Pool Committee in February.
1877, that he "made q very full and
careful brief. Subsequently, the
Chairman asked Mr.. Nickerson, owner
of the ironizing process upon which
the De Golyer patent pavement was
based, and who was familiar with all
the transactions at that time, to cross

Judge LOUIS f. Dining.

The convention for the nomination
of Democratic candidates for the vari.
Gus State offices will assemble at Jefer-
son City next Wednesday. The fol-
lowing are the Offices to be filed:
Governor.
Lieutenant-Governor.
Supreme Court Judge.
State Treasurer.
Auditor.
Secretary of State.
Acknowledgement.
Register of Lands.
Railroad Commissioner.
There is of course sufhcien cy of
candidates for all these positions: it will
be the duty of the convention to select
from them those who are expected to
best serve the State, and thereby adj
vance the interests of the party. Our
purpose now is to urge upon that body
the name of Judge Louis F. Dining
for the position of Acknowledgement.
He has filled the position of Judge of
the 26th circuit for over seven years,
and during that time has proved him.
self to be an able lawyer and pure
man. Elected first in 1868, he was
kept out of his office for five long years
by means known only to the Radical
regime which desola ed our fair State.
But lie never "let up" never lost heart,
but fought Republican rascality and
Republican power with a vim that
conquered in the end, and in 1873 took
possession of the office to which he had
been elected by the people five years
before. His contest had been costly,
and at times, to less determined spir-
it, discouraging in the extreme, and h e
entered into his judicial duties a much
poorer man than when he took up the
fight not only for himself but for the
party. He was reelected without op-
position in 1874, by a constituency
which recognized alike his legal ability
and the sacrifices he had maIe in their
behalf. During the eight years he has
filled the office. he has administered it
to the entire satisfaction of the people
he served, as we'll as with honor to
himself; and in that long period he has
had one decision reversed by the Su-
preme Court.
He is now. as above remarked, cam
didate for Attorney-General. and we
can Commend him as one of the fittest
and ablest contestants for the position
presented for years. The whole South
help belle wing that he will be nomi-
mated almost without opposition.
Such will certainly be the case if the
interests and will of the people are con-
suited
