1.-THE CHINESE LETTER"


of the above-named letter, why do not tn,
faithful Democrats find one man among tht
Employers Labor Union who has seen Oh
even heard of that letter from its recipient
before Mr.. Morey's death? Would an agent
have such a communication and not ever
show it or allude to it in some way to his EN-,
ployers, or rather the principals whom he
serves? A forgery is intended to initiate sc
as to defy detection. l saw forged S10(
bank note taken by Mitchell of Milwaukee,
In 1852, where powerful microscope failed
to show him any defect in the signature, and
the yignette alone, through imperfection re-
yealed the forgery of Mr.. Mitchells S100.
Note the late forgery that was confessed in
Chicago of Government bonds. Was it not
a nicely-done job? Now l believe in honor
able political warfare, and no chicanery or
SANDER to achieve a victory. Unless some
more tangible evidence is produced to prove
j. A. Garfield its author than I have yet
seen, L shall believe the above named letter
an election dodge, got up by party in a
| desperate struggle as desperate remedy
and 1t will cause many votes to go to Gar
field and Arthur from sympathy alone.
" Honor 70 whom honor is due" From an
ardent admirer of james B. Weaver and the

Sacramento, October %, 1880.
| Mr.. MILBURN's ENTERTAINMENT Rev
W. H. Milhurn, ''The Blind Man Eo-
| quent," had fine audience at the First Bap-
| fist Church last evening. He told of what a
! blind man saw in Paris, prefacing his lecture
with an eloquent explanation of the compen-
sation that the blind find for the loss of sight,
and a description of the fanciful world in
which they live. His description of Paris,
the superb, Of her chief streets, places and
parks, of the boulevards, monuments and
drives was profoundly interesting. and only
equaled by his criticism of French manners
and habits, his sketches of stirring events in
French history, and his comparison of French
with American and English women He held
his audience for over an hour in rapt
attention, and was frequently and heartily
applauded. He has wonderfully
rich and musical voice, that is trained to
under his control. His word painting is
marvelously beautiful, and his ell c1tionary
power is phenomenal. His wit, while taking
and very mirth provoking wears considerable
of the garb of studied effort and was not so
flashing and incisive as is spontaneous wit;
but the methods of the speaker in his delivery
Of witty sentences, sarcastic epigrams, and in
his mimetic periods, were so full of the
dramatic and were so effective with the
audience that the unanimous verdict was,
" This man besides being splendidiy eloquent
Is an admirable actor, and possesses the com
edy- quality in a large degree" No one who
attendedlast evening but feel fully repaid, and
tits probable that the church and chapel audi
forums will have to be thrown into one to-
night to accommodate the audi nee that will
assemble to hear Mr.. Milburn's discourse Of
" Our Best Society"
