General Garfield WAS one of the vis-
iting statesmen to Louisiana in 1876,
and aided the thieving Returning
Board in faisifying the returns. of that
State. by which the people of the ma
ton were defrauded of their choice for
President. After declaring tile elect
oral commission bill unconstitutional
he took a position in the commission
as member thereof, though. he was
sworn to support the Constitution, and
rs such member he was sworn to act
impartially and honestly in AL mat
ters that might come before the Com
mission. Utterly, regardless of that
oath, when the case of Louisiana came
up he voted against going behind the
returns and in favor of maintaining
the false and fraudulent returns which
he had aided In making up merely be-
cause a full and fair investigation
would be damaging to his party. But
when the case of Oregon came up, in
volving substantially the same point,
he voted in favor of going hehind the
returns, because his party would there
by derive an advantage. Is a man
thus false to his oath and false to the
interests Of the people worthy to be
entrusted with the high hnnors of the
tr.r -sl--.

PALMYRA.

correspondence.
Death has again visited our COM
munity. Three deaths having occurred
during the past week. The first was
that of Mr.. John Thomas, which was
caused by his being kicked by colt.
Mr.. Thomas was just in the prime of
life, being only 81 years of age. He
was one of Palmyra 3 best citizens, and
his loss is deeply felt by his large num-
Der of friends and acquaintances. He
leaves a wife and six children to mourn
their loss, besides a large number Of
relatives, who were in attendance at
the funeral.
The second death was that of Mrs.
John Jones, who ha0 been sick about
a week. She was also in the prime of
life, her age being only 20 years.
The third death was that of Mr..
John Davis. The cause of his death
being, we presume, old age. He had
reached the ripe old age of 104 years,
and had been a resident of this place
for long period of time. The funeral
occurred on Sunday, the 3rd inst, and
was largely attended.
Bills were out last week announcing
that there would be a Republican
meeting on Saturday evening. 1t was
not announced who the speaker would
be, but it was rumored that the gallant
E. b. Lewis was to address the people
For some reason not known to us the
meeting did not occur. Perhaps
Croaker" will explain the reasons
why the meeting was a failure.
Messrs. Geo. r. WOolf and JOS. Davis
are to address the Hancock Club this
(Monday) evening. The political
questions of the day will be ably dis
cussed. The Club is provined with
" question box" and all persons hav-,
ing questions to ask on the political
issues of the day, are earnestly request
ed to bring them along. All questions
will be answered in reasonable length
of time. KENILwORTH.

DEMOCRATIC ENTHUSIASM.
Notwithstanding the inclemency OF
the weather, large and enthusiastic
crowd, variously estimated, and at not
less than 1000, came out Saturday
night to hear the real issues of the
campaign discussed by d. T.. Rock
we'll, Esq, of Ravenna, who spoke
with telling effect to his old friends
and acquaintances, and many Repub-
licans possessing the honor of gray
hairs declared for Hancock and Eng
lish, and against the black record of
the Republican party and their candi-
date.
The speakers stand was decorated
with 200 small flags, the stars and
stripes, and beautifully illuminated
with 80 Japanese lanterns,
The Brimfield Band and the Kent
Democratic gun squad furnished music
for the occasion.
The meeting closed at 10: 80 O'Clock,
with three times three cheer for Han
cock and English. S.
