THE Republicans have at least the
good taste to ascribe the authorship
of General Hancock's letter of nc
ceptance and of Order No. 40, to able
and accomplished statesmen. The
Dayton (O) Journal believes that
Samuel J. Tilden wrote the first for
Northern consumption, and the New
York Tribune charges the other to
the fertile pen of Judge Black, for the
Southern market. Now, who wrote
his letter TO General Sherman 1t
seems to have an authorship equal in
ability to the others and is good read.
ing for all times. Garfield and other
prominent Republicans of loose polit-
ical morals, might study il with profit.
The fact is, General Hancock has
kindly furnished some very valuable
literature lately, embracing whole
some views of constitutional Republi-
can government, and IL Is TO be regret.
ted that the stalwart advocates of .
strong government, and bayonet con-

BELLEFONTE, PA, THURSDAY, AUGUST II, 1880.

In 1876 q plot was successfully laid
and carried out by the Republicans to
defeat the will of the people and pre-
vent the installation of the Democrats
legally elected President and Vice
President of the United States. To
avoid another civil war the Democracy
allowed the fraud to be consummated.
Forbearance in this was wonderful
and perhaps criminal, but it can never
be repeated. An attempt now, under
any pretence whatever, to abridge the
proper expression of the peoples will,
or to prevent due weight and infu-
ence to that expression, will fall with
dire punishment on the party which
puts it in motion. A correspondent Of
the Brooklyn Eagle refers to the last
method that is to be tried TO defeat
the popular will. He says:
alt has leaked out that an internal
and infamous scheme has been set on
foot by the Republicans to subvert the
will of the people and carry the State
for Garfield. IL is this: That law Is
to be passed by Gov. Cornell's extra
session OF the legislature. to be called
ostensibly to patch up the tax clause OF
the corporation law, passed during the
last session. so that majority vote of
counties shall control the Presidential
vote that is. we will say, Kings county
will give Hancock 5000 majority ;
these % 900 votes will not count any
more than the majority in State. The
| Republicans know full well that the
vote Hancock will get in New York
and Kings will give him the State by an
overwhelming majority. hence this sub
! tie and ingenious mode OF destroying
/ the maiorities, for with them destroyed
they have good reason to hope the
country counties will easily be carried
for Garfield. II seems TO me this con.
,emplated proceeding by the Republi.
cans ought to be and can be so thor.
oughly ventilated that they will not
dare to carry it out, or attempt to per.
petrate another such fraud as in

AT last our excellent contemporary,
the BellefoDte Republican, condescends
TO admit the words Credit Mobilier"
and "De Golyer" into its columns. In
a burst of angry Indignation at the
wicked Democrats, it asserts that
"when asked their policy upon the
tariff they answer, Credit Mobilier !;
upon finances, De Golyer," and it is
upon these two falsehoods they (the
aforesaid wicked Democrats) expect TO
win public favor" 1t will be in order
for the Republican now to explain to
its readers how "these two falsehoods"
originated. SO far as the Credit Mo-
bilier is concerned, we would respect
fully refer our contemporary to the
report of Republican congressional
committee, of which one Judge Poland,
Of Vermont, was chairman, whenever
it desires information in regard to that
particular "falsehood." In the mean
while it can digest the following ex-
tract from the report of that commit
tee:
"The facts in regard TO Garfield, a.
found by the coLlmittee, 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 so per cent. dividend in bonds and
sold them for 81 per cent, and also re-
ceived the GO per cent. cash dividend,
which. together with the price OF The
stock and interest, lett balance of 1929.
This sum was paid over TO Mr.. Garfield
by q check on the sergean tatsrins, and
Mr. Garfield then understood this sum
was the balance OF dividends after pay.
ing for the stock"
For information in regard TO the
De Golyer "falsehood" j; may refer to
the report of the evidence taken before
the Glover investigating committee.
IL will there be seen how Garfield re-
ceived a FIVE thousand dollar fee for his
official influence as chairman of the
committee on appropriations, and that
"he spoke to Sheppard about IL" That
is, about the paving contract that was
awarded 10 the friends who 30 kindly
paid him the $1,000.

as of his own political household.
There was Conger with his storied fog
horn, Ben Harrison in faultlessly
fitting kids, Godlove S. Orth, redo
lent with the aroma of Venezuela
claims and the immaculate and ire
pressible Murat Halstead, who tele-
graphed to his paper from Chicago
that Garfield could not be nominated
because his record was against him.
These were the men who did the
grand and lofty tumbling and pre-.
vented the whole show from being
absolutely stupid. This trip Of Gar
fields to the East TO confer with the
magnates of his party was JEWELS
dernier resort. Everything was at
skies and sevens and nothing but a
heroic remedy would meet the case.
Had Alabama cooed like a sucking
dove instead of laundering her indig-

the pilgrimage of Garfield toward the

necessary. The result must have been
great disappointment. He had hied

GARFIELD swung far enough around
the circle on his homeward journey
from New York to reach the great
Chaulauqua c camp meeting Of the
Young Meme Chflssian Association,
on last Sunday. Schuyler CoIiax was
also there and was one of the orators
of the day. Garfield was satisfied
with a simple introduction TO the vast
audience. Colfax was presented by
Mr.. Stuart as "my dear brother in
the Lord" while the Presidential nom
inee was only our Christian brother,
Gen. james A. Garfield, of the United
States Senate" 1t was exceedingly
appropriate that Christian brethren
like Colfax and Garfield should thus
come together, but it may be consider
ed doubtful whether their presence on
the Lords day at religious gather
ing was any credit to the occasion.
Both we're brethren in their dealing:
with Oakes Ames and their consequent
connection with the Credit Mobilier
scandal, though Colfax has shown a
slight degree Of modesty by retiring
to certain extent to the shades oI
private life. Garfeld-Colfax, Colfax
