Now that it has been judicially as
certained and decided that the Morey
letter was q "vile forgery" and that
it's genuineness was sought to be es-
tablished through perjury, We are anx-
ious to knew whether those editors
who endorsed and circulated it will
acknowledge their error. Judge Davis
has CONNECTED" Hewitt, Barnum,
Randall and other members of the
Democratic Committee with this in
famous business, and condemns Hewitt
more severely for his conduct than he
cehsures Hart, the editor who first
gave it publicity. Mr.. Hewitt writhes
under the scathing denunciation of the
court, but there is no escape for him.
After the decision of Judge Davis,
showing the dishonorable part taken
in this matter by the "leading Demo
Gratis" above nsmed, the csnsure ofthe
Conn., Gazette will be found not only
justified by the facts, but warranted
by the law as we'll as the morals OF the
Pittsburgh Com. Gazette.
The Democrats hoped that the in
famous Chinese letter would be drSp'
ped after the elections we're over, but
they were fooled, as the Republicans
only began the work then and have
succeeded in not only bringing the
forger, Philip, to justice, but have
shown such prominent and leading
lights in the Democratic party as
Abram S. Hewitt, Speaker Randall,
Chairman Barnum and others to be
deeply implicated in the iniquitous
business. Our neighbors of the Dem
ocrdt and Commonwealth both snapped
at tho bait and published the vile for
gerry Just on the eve of election
and when they as we'll as all Others
who had given it any attention
knew it to be a base forgery
They did it in the hope of taking 1
few votes from General Garfield. Nov
that the whole matter has been proven
to be such an infamous and villianou
attempt to slander and belle Presiden
elect Garfield, we ask with the Gazette
wall these editors who endorsed anC
circulated it acknowledge their error
We hope, for the sake of fairness an,
common decency among newspaper
they will.

Michigan is not wanting in good
candidates. Ex-Governor Bagley,
Ex. Governor Baldwin, Governor
Crossley, who will be Ex-Governor
after January first, 1881, and Hon.
John S. Nswberry, Sitting member
from the first district are among the
names that are being canvassed. 1t is
admitted, even by his opponents, that
Governor Bagley has earned and
deserves the right to ask Of his State
the gift it can bestOw upon him. The

that he was not sent here a year ago

What they say Of it! A few facts for the
people. There are few preparations OF
medicines which have withstOod the i'm
partial Judgment OF the people for any
great length OF time. One of these Is DIR.
Thomas Electric Oil. Read the following
and be convinced :-"I have been afflicted
with rheumatism for the last ten years,
and have tried many remedies without
any relief, until l tried DIR. Thomas Elec-
trio OH, and since then have had no attack
OF it. Iwould recommend it to ALL" A
MAybee Merchant, WaTkworth, writes,
"I have sold some hundreds of bottles Of
Electric Oil, and it Is pronounced by the
public 'one OF the best medicines they
have ever used;' it has done wonders in
healing and relieving pain, sore throats,
etc., and is worthy of the greatest conf
dence." Joseph Rusan, Township Percy,
writes, II was persuaded to try Thomas
Electric Oil for lame kneo which troubled
me for three or four J ears, and / never
found anything like it for cureing lame
ness. 1t is great public benefit" A, NJ.
Hamilton, Warkw Orth, writes, "FOr
weeks was troubled with a swelled ankle
which annoyed me very much. Mr.
Maybee of this place induced me to try
Electric Oil, and before one bottle was
used was cured. 1t is a most remarkable

We can heartily endorse the abov
nomination, believing that it woul
give eminent satisfaction to the RI
publicans of this section, and particr
larly those of Forest county, many
whom are personally acquainted wit
Lieut.. Governor Stone, and know hil
to be eminently fitted for the exalte
position Of U. S. Senator. AS ii
Citizen intimates, Northwestern Penn

Office, having never presented a caI

as the man as does Gov. Stone, and

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. IL, 80.
The counting being over, and the
gains and losses Of the late election
having been figured up, it is found
that the Republicans have gained SO
largely in the Senate, that the organ
ization after March 4th, 1881, hangs
upon the votes Of Senator elect Malone
of Virginia, and Senator David Davis
of Illinois. 1t is certain there will be
81 Republicans and 81 Democrats,
unless Tennessee should elect an In.
dependent, which seems now probable.
Then it would stand 35 Democrats,
and three Independents.
From Maine to California, the
claims Of the various candidates for
Senatorial hOnors to fill the vacancies
caused by expiration of the terms OF
one. third of the Senate after March
4tb, 1881, are discussed and put for
ward.
In Name, as successor to the vener-
able Senator Hamlin, the two most
prominent candidates are Hon. VIM
P. Frye, sitting, and member elect
from the second district, and the Hon
Eugene Hale, ex.member from the
fifth district. 1t is almost certain tha
Colonel Frye will be the man.
Connecticut has two candidates il
Hon. Joseph r. Hawley, sitting mem
ber from the first district, and Elk
Postmaster General Marshall Jewell
The chances for success are evenl,
divided. Either gentleman will b
an honor to the State.
In New York, among the numsrou
q candidates may be mentioned Hon
