RnmOrs Among Politicians that Gar
field Will be Withdrawn.

Special to the PATRIOT.
PHILADELPHIA, June lS.-There
has been talk in the inner circle of re-
publican politicians here of the posi-
biltY of Garfield's name being taken
off the national ticket. 1t is becom-
ing painfully apparent that the repub-
lican party cannot move forward to
success with the load of obliquy which
their candidates connection with the
Credit Mohilier and other congress
ional scandals has brought upon them.
Hence the talk of for,ing him to with.
draw. In the event of his withdrawal
it is thought electoral tickets would be
run in the several states pledge to can
didates who will suit the preferences
of the republican voters with q view
of permitting the electoral college to
select in the end.

From the NeIc York Herald.
but when we come to consider the
actual candidate we do not know
whether we ought to congratulate the
republican party or to condole with it e.
Mr.. Garfield is one of the most esti-
mable and popular men in the repuE
lican party; but he is not the man
whom the party would have spontane-
ously selected as its standard-bearer in
an important presidential election.
He is takeu up only because the really
strong men of the party were thought
to have no chance for the nomination.
His claims were never thought worthy
of discussion in advance, and his NOM
ination is one Of the accidents or freaks
Of an abnormal political situation.
~ The selection of General Arthur
is judicious almost to the extent of art

WHAT GARFIELD HAS TO
SAY.
The Republican Nc uinees ON =
cially Informed .of their Selection.


CHICAGO, June 9.-The committee
appointed by Senator Hoar to wait on
generals Garfield and Arthur and not.
ifY them of their nomination found
them in the clnb room of the Grand
Pacifck hotel, and Senator Hoar, as
chairman, made an appropriate speech.
Gen. Garfield replied:
Mr., Chairman and Gentlemen: I as.
sure you that the information you have
officially given to me brings the sense
of very grave responsibility, and es-
pecially so in view of the fact that |
was a member of your body, fact
that could not haYe existed with prop
riety had had the slightest expec-
tation that my name would be cOnnec-
ted with the nomination for the office.
have felt, with you, great solicItude
concerning the situation of our party
during the struggle; but, believing
that you are correct in assuring me
that substantial victory has been reach.
ed in the conclusion, it gives me a
qualification far greater than any per-
sonal pleasure your announcement can
bring.
accept the trust committed to my
hands. AS to The work of our party
and as to the character of the cam
paign to be entered upon, will take
an early occasion to resay more fully
than can properly do to- night.
thank you for the assurance of con {.
fidence and esteem you have presented
to me, and hope we shall see our flu
ture as promising as are the indica-
tiOns tonight.
Senator Hoar, in tie same manner,
presented the nomination to General
Arthur, who accepted it in brief and
informal way.

WHAT THE LEADING
PAPERS SAY.
A Weak Ticket.
From tAe Philadelphia 7Ymes.

From the Philadelphia Times.
The nomination makes every south
ern stare democratic, makes Ohio
doubtful makes New York ami New
Jersey hardly debatable for the Repub-
licans, and makes Indiana, California,
Oregon and even Pennsylvania depend
upon the verdict Of Ohio in October.
If Garheld's Own state shall be lost in
the preliminary October, the ensuing
contest will be ended and his defeat
overwhelming: while if he shall carry
it by a reduced maj Jrity, as is newt
able against strong democratic ticket
his election will be then no more than
possible. He will be assailed in his
own state and by his political friends
with uncommon bitterness and his in.
tegrity will be as positively questioned
asthe defamers of Blaine have question
ed the purity of his public record. His
own constituents and party associates
have made this possible by standing
out as his accusers. +** And as If it
was predetermined that he should be
overweighed in the race, the nomina
tion of Arthur for vice president was
loaded upon him TO make the battle
for the controlling state of New York
a hopeless one. 1t is possible for dem
ocratic folly to elect the Garfield ticket.
Its election will be impossible if states
manship and patriotism shall be among
the conspicuous attrib utes of the dem
ocratic candidates.

From the Baltimore Gazette.
Like Mr.. Hayes he comes from Ohio,
but unlike the present occupant of the
White House he cannot hope to take
his seat through fraud and violence,
and there is very little probability of
his securing it through any other me-
dium. During the canvass Mr.. Gar
fields record will come to the surface
and there will not be found in it much
to encourage the people to support him
at the polls. His nomination recalls
an ugly episode in connection with the
disgraceful reign of the board of public
work of Washington under the Boss
Shepherd regime.

Washington, ID. c., june 18th, 1880.
The New York Herald OF yesterday has a
long editorial article concerning the charges OF
official corruption against Garfield. The Herald
says that Garfield is the first Presidential can
didate against whom charges Of the kind were
ever made, and that he should show them TO be
main accusations, are two: First that he re-
ceved Credit MODilier stock or scrip from
OakeS AmeS. as some other members OF Con-
gress did, without paying for II drew dividends
tee that he owned or ever had owned any, and
when confronted with full proof made lame
explanation. he was one OF the Republican
members in whose case the Republican inveSbi-
eating committee gave no opinion, though, IN
other eases IL the evidence showed the accused
members 10 be innocent the committee hasten
ed 10 say so.
The other charge Is that he received money
corruptly from contractors In this district, The
circumstances may be gwen IN II lew words.
Several years ago Congress investigated our
former District government. That Government,
which may be summed up aS Boss Shepherd"
was bankrupt, anu was cndeavOring 10 ret E
very large appropriation from Congress. Gar
field was chairman of the House Committee on
appropriations, and friend of shepherd. lie
also had some Western friends who asked foT
and received from Shepherd, while the question
OF the appropriation was pending, a contract
covering three-QuarterS OF Il million dollars.
Garfield received from these contractors, IL was
shown, $500 before the contract was given out.
He cIaimed before the Investigating Commit
tee that this WAS u Zee for legal opiuion rs TO
the quality OF the pavement To be laid by the
contractors. But mo such opinion was ever put
on file, and, upon being pressed Garfield could
only remember that he met Shepherd on the
street and spoke to him about it,"
These matters are all of record hero, none Of
them can be denied. Garfield never has denied
them. Neither has Ire satisfactorily explained
them, nor can he do so. These charges are
those which II tlIe, the Herald says should
cause Garfield &c .Step down and out" aS IL
Presidential candidate.
Whatever course Garfield may pursue, the eX-
poSurc in his case teaches the Democrats a WI
liable lesson by which 1t Is TO be hoped they
may profit No mans name shend be consid-
cred ut Cincinnati unless lie can show clean
personal and Official record, or against whom
the public has any reason to believe cha rgeS rs
damaging as those against Garfield can be
made. CARROLL,

From the Ne1 York Sun.
I'm considering this nomination we
desire first of all to tha nk God for the
defeat of Grant and the decisive over
throw of the third. term conspiracy.
1t is an event on which the American
people in a body may well offer up re.
joicings to heaven; and the friends of
liberty and of the rights of men in all
nations under the sun should join with
them in the manifestations of their
heartfelt gratitude. But is General
Garfield such man that patriotic cit
izens of the United States can well and
wisely support him for presidentP Can
the executive authority of the republic
be safely intrusted to him? These are
questions which every voter should
now ask; and we answer calmly and
emphatically that he is not such a
man."

From the Nelo York World.
Mr.. Garfield being thus merely an
average republican candidate-a man
whose strength in no way transcends
the party strength, as does General
Grants strength, for example, and
who will for the reason we have given
fail to command even the party
strength in the all important states of
New York and Pennsylvania-it is
plain that only ordinary sense and ord
mary prudence will be required at Gin
cinnati TO make a democratic victory
sure.
The Chicago convention, we repeat,
has opened to the democrats the road
to the White House, aud only wilful
blindness can prevent the democrats
from taking it.

GIVE tho Boys Tools.

Almost all boys are naturally me-
chanics. The constructive AID imlta.
tive faculties are developed, In part,
at very early ago. All boys are not
capable Of being developed into good,
practical, working mechanics, but
most Of them show their bent that way.
There arc few eases IN which the boy
has no competent idea :of the produc-
ton OF Il fabricated result from inor-
ganic material, but such cases are rare.
Given the proper encouragement and
tho means, and many boys whose mo.
chanoal aptncss Is allowed to run to
waste, or Is diverted from its natural
course, would become good workmep.
useful, producing members Of the in
dustrial community. The mechanical
boy ought to have shop Of his own.
Let 1t be the attic, or an unused room,
or a place In the barn or woodshed
Give him a place and tools Let him
have good pocket knife, gimlets,
chiscls, gouges, planes, cutting nippers,
saws, foot rule, and material to work,
Let the boy have a chance. If he Is q
mechanic it will come out, and he will
do himself credit. If he fails he ia tc
follow some calling that does not de.

In the law ttilre OF John $. Spencer.
at Canandaigua, New York, in 1881 -32,
were four young law students, 20 for
tune and to fame unknown. Under the
careful guidance of Mr.. Spencer they
were duly admitted to the bar In 1891
and one of them at once struck out for
the West, locating at Cleveland. Here
he stuck fast, and while waiting the
expiration o. the six months prescribed
by the Ohio laws before citizen of
another State can DO admitted to prac-
tlce In her courts, he was surprised bv
a call from his fellow students. They
were looking for places to hang out
thcir shingles. "Well one Of you can
stay here with me; another OF you can
60 further to the little French village
called Detroit, and the other can push
Oh to new place they call Chicago,
on the site of old Fort Dearborn. i"
After little consultation this plan
Was agreed on. The one who went 10
the "little French village" was George
G. Bates he who went further on was
Stephen A. Douglass, who went to
Springfield instead of Chicago, making
q mistake, while he who remained IN
Cleveland was Henry b. Payne.
