Tnr New York san says that the
Republican defeat in Maine is Justly
deserved because of the failure Of
that party to nominate Blaine, the
most brilliant, popular and dash
ing Of their leaders, for the Presiden-
cy. But they took Garfield, who had
not only been accused of taking brides.
but had been convicted thereof and
had been convicted, moreover, Of per.
jury in his effort to evade the proof OF
his guilt. There never was a greater
insult to an intelligent people than
this nomination of Garfield. New
err was worse folly committed by the
representatives of great party than
the nomi nation of man whose whole
campaign, from beginning to end,
must of necessity be campaign of
selfdefense and apology, of denial,
duplicity and futile arguments against
/ facts.
In SPEECH at Bavaria, O., Tues
day, Hon. Joe Blackburn asserted
that il John Sherman, or any other
mar, said that he used the words that
''tbe last vestige Of war legislation
should be wiped from the statute books
when the Democrats get control of
the government, he lied wilfully and
malic iously. The Associated Press
reports of the speech credit him with
this language, but no such words are
found in the speech as published in
the Congressional Record. Joe is
warming them up in Ohio, and his
speeches are spoken of in the highest
terms.
A MEETING of some OF the citizens /
of Jessamine was held at Nicholasville
last Monday, and it was resolved that
while they would express no opinion
as to the correctness or incorrectness
Of the verdict in HE Arnold case, they
believed the Sheriff, Jailer and jury
gentlemen in every sense of the word,
and that attempts to cast aspersion on
them should be condemned by good
men everywhere. The report says
that there was but one dissenting vote
to the adoption of the resolution. The
dissenter's name should be given. 1t
deserves to 60 down to posterity.
GARFIELD comes by his thieving
and lying propensities honestly. 1t
runs in the family and he is hardly
responsible. One Of his cousins is now
serving out a ten-year sentence in the
Indiana Penitentiary for highway rob
berry, while an own cousin is under in
dictment in Ohio for stealing, with
the probability that he too will get
term. Mr.. Garfield would 60 to the
Penitentiary too if he should be tried
for perjury. They are bad lot.
