Anxious Republicans.

The Republicans are very anxious 10 nave
the Presidential campaign conducted on what
they are pleased to term "high-toned princl-
pies" They mean by this that no attacks shall
be made on the candidates; that each OF the
standard. bearers shall be pronounced IRE
proachable in private character and public rec
ord, and that the war shall be waged solely on
The organizations which the respective capdl-
dates represent. This is peculiar attitude for
the Republicans, and arises solely from the
fact that in this contest the Republicans have
n candidate whose record and character is
smirched, while there is not blemish on the
record and character of the Democratic noml-
nee. Had Bayard Hendricks or Tilden been
the successful men at Cincinnati either would
have been denounced as rebel sympathizer,
and Tildens character would certainly have
been assailed. Bayards Dover speech would
have been revamped, Hendricks alleged con-
nection with the knights of the Golden Circle
would have been stated as fact and altogether
the campaign on the part of the Republicans
would have been personal. They would have
endcavored to gloss over the blemishes in Gar
fields career by contrasting his record In gen
eral with that of his opponent-Ne'o HdreH
| Union.

Deepest Gorge In the World.

The Arizona Miner says A party Of pro
spcctors thirteen in number, procured the
necessary papers from General Wilcox allow
ing them to visit the Indian village on Cataract
creek, inhabited by the Ava Supais, a tribe of
Indians numbering all told 200 souls. The
party went from Williamson valley tC the Bill
Williams range, and thence 10 Pine Springs.
Here they found every indication of an old sea
bed, the gravel and rocks being round and
smooth similar To those in the ocean bed
From Pine Spring the party directed their
course for the Ava Supai village, which Is
reched by descending from the table land down

for distance Of fourteen miles, dropping g.
900 feet Atpaccs along the trail We are told tina,

the other side dark, deep canons exist, hun

With great care aud good luck ten Of the party
succeeded in reaching the village. three Of theIl

The party attempted To explore Ca,arac

Gen. Gariield's Credit Mobiiier Record,

From his own sworn testimony before the
Poland Committee Jan. II, 1873:
II Herer O,rRed, recetr@i Or 0gr6Cd II recctrc
any stock # tie CredH Uobt!jer ar II the LHi0H
Pdcifc RGiiTodd, mr. 0Hy dtcidcHds ar prints
arising from either If Mcm.'
From Judge Poland's Report, Feb Is, 1915
-Garfed's testimony perured:
THE facts IN regard Ia Mr. Garfield, as
found by the committee, are that he agreed
with Mr. Ames to take ten shares of Credit
Mobilier stock, but did not pay for the same
Mr. Ames received the eighty per cent div.
dend in bonds and sold them tor mncty-seven
per cent, and also received the sixty per cent
cash dividend, which, together with the price
Of the stock and interest, left balance of $500
This sum was paid over to Mr.. Garfield by a
check on the Sergeant alarms, and Mr., Gar.
field then understood this SIM ,cds tie baLlHce
Of diotdendS utter paytHg for tie stoc&.'
From the New York Times, Feb 49, 1873;
"Messrs Kelley and Garfield present a most
distressing figure Their participation in the
Credit Mobilicr affair is complicated by the
most unfortunate contradictions of testimony"
From the New York Times, Feb 20 1873:
"The character OF the Credit MobilIer was
no secret. The source of ITS profits was very
well known at the time Congressman bought
H. luOuSu ohhtS hiilCS IdNc ouN'tItNN'
in ConCealing his own motive which was to
bribe congressman, their acceptance Of the
stock was not on that account innocent. The
dishonOr of the act, AS participation IN an
OBVIOUS fraud, still remains.
Some OF them have INDUCED in testimony
with reference To the matter which has been
contradlCted. The committee djStiactly "a.
jectS tie testimony # Seceral IF tie members,
This can oaig be done on tie gr0uHd tint IL is
untrue. But untrue testimOHy g{ge,t uHder oath
is moralIy, # not hgallg perjury.
ut is the clear duty Of Congress to visit
with punishment all who took Credit MObilicr
stock from Cakes Ames."
From the New York Tribuae, Feb. 10, 1873;
James a. Garfield of Ohio had ten shares
never paid dollar; received 1929, which, at-
ter the investigation began he was anxious to
have considered as "A loan from Mr.. Oakcs
Ames to himself.
"Well, the wickedness OF all of it Is that
these men betrayed the trust of the people, de
celved their constituents, and by evasions and
falsehoods confessed the transaction to be dis
graceful"
From the Tribuae, Feb. %, 1873:
Mr.. Ames establishes very clearly the
point that he was not alone in this otfense. II
he is 10 be expelled far bribery the men whe Tere
bribed sh0uld 90 10Th him.
