We cannot understand tho NJ
most Savage gloating of some Of our
contemporaries over the cttye Of Il.
@. Adams. 10 us there ID something
sud III the fall of aay mar or Woni-
an tllat ever wore Gods image, and
there is something positively fien-
Idish in q disposition to rejoice over
it.
The Adams case is peculiarly nit
liable. a young ma OF more than
ordinary natural abilities and grace-
full address. Inpulste, generous
and tree-handed 70 fault. Appoint
ed by tile government To one 0f the
most responsible and lucrative po-
s%itiois iii our territory. Backed up
by devoted friends, and furnished
money TO carry out all his enter
prises. With prospects as fair aud
bright, but tm9 short years ago, as
any young man who ever came. or
will ever come to Dakota.
To-day, fallen, ~disgracod, blasted
III fortune and fame, q fugitive from
the officers Of the law-wish a re-
ward set upon his head, and adyer-
tlsed in his own paper, fleeing to tie
oblivion of a foreign land to escape
the ignominy Of the penitentiary
stripes and lashes and dungeon
cells.
And there Is o sadder side to the
picture. Ia his dafkened and 1es-
olate little home ON one Of our logo.
llest mountain sides, his beautiful
and devoted young wife, n1addoned
with grief aud anxiety, waits III az
onllIilg stispeilse, clutches her heart
to stay its wild tIronbings, as she
listens for tidiugs Of him to whom
III sill his depth Of ruin, she still
clings with the yeatniap, ~daenGltess
devotion Of trne loving woman.
Are these things to rejoice at, to
eylllt oyer2 Can anything iii the
shape Of a man glory over such a
downfall, over a ruin SO piteous? Il
IL not enough So move eYenthe most
solid and brutal 10 sympathy and

God knows The writer Of this ar
ticle has a. little reason rs any oIle

HERE is what GARFIELD swore to be-
fore the POLAND committee, on the l4th
OF January. 1878:
81 never owned, received, or agreed
10 receive any stock OF the Credit Mo-
bilier or of the Union Pacific Railroad,
or any dividends or profits arising from
either OF them"
And here is what the Republican Po-
LAND Committee reported to Congress on
the 18th of February, 1873:
"The facts in regard to Mr. Garfield,
as found by the Committee, 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
50 per cent. dividend in bonds and sold
them for o. per cent. and also received
the 60 per cent. cash dividend, which
together with the price OF the stock and
interest, left a balance OF 1929. This
SUN was paid over TO Mr.. Garfield by a
cheek on the Scrgeant-at-Arms, and
Mr.. Garfield then understood this sum
was the balance of dividends after pay.

Correspondence of the Register.
Some unknown friend was kind
enough to send me a marked copy OF
the Enterprise, published in Fayette
county, this State, in which it was sta
ted under very attractive head lines
that Mess. Davis, Wilson, Faulkner, and
John Blair Hoge, on the 9th and 2Sth
Of April, met in Washington as per
agreement and set up that little job
about which so much talking has been
done lately. | happened to remember
that Judge HOge was in this place about
that time and took the trouble to exam
me the records in the Clerks Office OF
the Circuit Court for the exact dates,
and on examination found that on the
eth ana 2Sth OF April Judge lloge was
not in Washington, but in Fairmont,
holding court for Judge Fleming, which
completely proves an alibi. presume
the statement is as true OF the other
gentlemen as it is OF Judge Hoge. Now,
Mr.. Editor, don't you think it is pretty
early in the campaign to begin to man
uiacture lies ont of whole cloth?

Mr. Tildeu's Letter.

y. Y. Herald
The one feature of the news IRON Gin
ciunaI which will command universal
and deeply Interested attention is Mr..
nlden's letter to the New York delega-
ton. No man is more skiliul in the art
OF advertising than Mr.. Tilden. With a
view TO have his letter make a great inn
preston he mas kept the Convention
and the country in the suspense OF eNci-
ted curiosity for two or three days
allowing the letter 10 be announced, but
giving only the vlguest ideas OF It's pur-
port. 10 was expected % be letter OF
deClinatiOn, but 10 turns our IN TACT to
be deNterOuS plea for his nomination.
He reCltes the services % which he at
tributes his nomination in 1876, asserts
that he was elected President in that
year, that he was dpirauded of his cleo
ton, that he thcreupOu became IN a
private station the representative OF the
right OF the people % control their gov
eminent bv their V0t =, and that
he now turns over this trust 10
the assembled delegates of the
Democratic party. Though Ostensibly a
letter OF withdrawal, il is really state
ment of ms claims Tor another nOEiua-
ton. Ii is none the less likely to be
effective because it was made under the
guise OF a deciensiOn. The aim of the
letter Is 70 make IL appear that he is the
central figure Of the Democratic party,
10 advertise the reforms he would have
made in the government, 70 extOl HIM
self as a political martyr. IL remains 10
be seen whether the Convention will
take him at his word, or will accept the
letter IN the sense in which it is obvious
ly intended-to make him again the
nominee Of his party,

TuE present editor OF the Pittsburgh
Christian IIrJcgis was reelected 10 that
position at the last session OF the Gener'
al Conference, possibly because that the
political partisan character he has given
that journal had so Tar reduced its stand
ing and circulation as TO make the edl'
torship a position not much sought after.
If for the next four years he proposes to
make this church paper the public re-
ceptacle OF such partisan dissertations rs

So tar as the West Virginia oil regions
are concerned, the present representa-
tive, Hon. Benz Wilson, will receive
the unanimous support OF the voters OF
both parties for Congress. He has won
such host of friends by his Jealous la
Dor in their behalf, thatit is useless Tor
any one else to allow even thought OF
help from this locality. Besides he de-
serves the high compliment paid him,
and if the balance of the district can
guarantee him a like support, he will
receive three times the majority he did
