cion, and the same may be said of Gen.
Grant, its candidate in the two following
elections, and most emphatically of Mr..
Hayes, its candidate four years ago.
For the first time in its history the
Republican party has nominated a
Presidential candidate against whom
charges are made which, if true, should
be II bar to his election.
1t will not do to evade these grave
charges by vauge defamation against q
campaign of calumny. No former can
didate of any party has ever been
accused of breaches of pecuniary trust
in official relations. This is not an nc
onsation to be ignored, but to be refut.
ed. 1t is idle to depreciate campaign
of calumny until it is shown by proper
evidence that the charges are destitute
of reasonable foundation. Ii they are
true they are fatal. We do not profess
to know whether they are true or false.
But if they are ficticious and malicious
their falsity can be demonstrated, and
when they shall have been refuted it
will be time TO cry out against cam.
paign of calumny. When these grave
charges shall have been proved on good
tNlutUCt " bc lalst th0it
repetition will be wanton calumny.
But it will not do to shirk investigation
and shun inquiry on the pretence that
all candidates are assailed. No previous
candidate for the Presidency has ever
been assailed on similar grounds. II
Mr.. Garfield is innocent, he, above all
other men, is most interested in having
the exact truth known. Our recent
observation of the recent course of the
Sun does not justify any suspicion that
our energetic contemporary would
make charges which it does not believe
there is good evidence to support. In
the particular case OF Mr.. Garfield the
charges are not trumped up for the
occasion. The Sun has been repeating 2
them, year in and year out, for long
period when Mr.. Garfield was of no
consequence to the country at large and
was responsible only to his immediate
constituents in his Congressional dis.
trict, whose vote for him is said to have
fallen off about nine thousand after the
Congressional investigation of the
Credit Mobilier job"

q. You say that these figures were made
by Mr.. Garfield ? A. Yes, sir.
q. That was his idea of what was COM
ing to him A. Yes, sir.
All this, be il remembered, occurred
after the investigation had begun
after James A. Garfield had sworn that
he "never owned, received, agreed to
receive any stock of the Credit Mobil.
ier or of the Union Pacific Railroad,
nor any dividends OF profits arising
from either Of them"
And after Garfield had sworn to this
falsehood Republican committee of
of the House of Represen tatives, made

friends, and with Judge Poland, OF Yer

forever as bribe taker and q perjurer

He (GarGeld) agreed with Mr.. Amcs to
take ten shares of Credit Mobilier stock,
but did not pay for the same. Mr.. Ames
received the eighty per cert dividend in
bonds and sold them for ninety-seven per
cent. and also received the per cent. cash
dividend, which together with the price
Of the stock and interest, left a balance Of

and when Ames had refused TO periure
himself TO save him he made figures TO
show that Ames still owed him $2,400
of the bribe money.
Cakes Ames testified as follows
@. You may state whether, in converse
ton with you, Mr.. Garfield claims, as he
claimed before US, that the only transac-
tion between you was borrowing $500.

me.

We present Judge Turnkey, OF Penn
sylvania, in our Presidential Gallery
to-day. not because he is prominent in
the canvass for the Cincinnati nomina.
ton, but because he is one of the few
men who could give all the qualities Of
eminent fitness and cordial unity to his
party in case OF a bitter conflict between
the chief competitors. II is reasonably
probable that there may be a rapid con.
centration of Democratic sentiment on
Seymour or Field or Payne before the
convention meets, and if so, there will
be prompt selection of a candidate by
reclamation but IL is quite possible,
also, that there may be such protract.
ed and disturbing contest between
leading rivals az to repeat the Polk and
Pierce nominations. In view of the
desperate struggle that is 10 be made
for Ohio in October, and the assaults
which are certain to be made upon
Garfield's record. there is no compro'
mise man who could so cordially unite
the party and inspire it with hopes Of
success, as Judge Turnkey. lie is free

attention of the State TO his attributes
which would adorn any position in the

The feeling is rapidly spreading that
if the Democrats do not carry the next
Presidential election it will be their own
fault; and there is evidently general
resolve that they will not commit such
fault. We believe now that great
care will be taken in the selection Of a
candidate, and that candidate, whoever
he may be, will receive the hearty and
almost unanimous support of the party.
Beyond the disagreement in reference
the third term question, there seems to
be feeling 10 the ranks OF the Repub
licans that their party has survived H.
usefulness and might as well be dis-
banded. The prospects Of the Democ.
racy are Frightening.

there is a confusion Of the Stonington
