Senatorial Contests.

How the anti-machine politicians do
try to insert General Garfield into their
politics-the men who are rejoiced that
the millennium has arrived when there
shall be no more successful politicians
than themselves. The unconsidered, the
uninfuential, the neglected, the inno-
cents who have yainly chased after
Office for twenty years and been
foiled by others similarly but more
successfully engaged, are all in arms
and eager for the fray. Men who thirst
for the party offal as the hart panteth af-
ter the water brook are sniveling about
politicians and canting against the ma
chine. The vermin of political society
crawls over the surface of the occasion,
and one would fancy that strong men
were about to be banished. Senatorial
struggles in several States give serious
concern to some of the class referred to,
and the periodical time for the destruc-
ton of the giants has arrived. But the
fttest will survive. A fortnight will
remand to obscurity the fussy, ridicu-
lous, and impotent waterfies which
now seem to be in possession of the field.
The power of blather will be found insuf-
ficient to turn awry the currents of polit-
ical endeavor. The Senate of the United
States will have been recruited from the
real forces of American politics, and the
Cabinet-making can then 60 ON.

The Forgery Confessed.

The New York Truth, which was the
sluice through which the forged Morey-
letter calumny was emptied upon the
head of General Garfield during the re-
cent campaign, has now acknowledged
that letter to be a forgery. The con-
fession is in the form of an open letter
to General Garfield, and contains the
following language:
This acknowledgment is due TO you from the
journal in which the letter first appeared 1t is
made voluntarily. and as an act of simple justice
for while we believed, as we did until within
few weeks past, that you were the author of the
letter, no bribe could tempt nor threat intimi-
date us into making a contrary statement
Having ascertained, however our error it is a
qualification to to give the same prominence
to this acknowledgment that we gave to the
forged letter itself, and thereby make all the
amends in our power for wrong of which
the Truth was an unconscious instrument
Upon the instant that our investigations con-
WINGED us the letter was spurious we privately
informed you of our conclusion. At that time
we were advised that the ends of Justice might
be impeded by public avowal, such as we now
make: but as will appear in an appended letter
from b. G. Jayne, esq, that consideration no
lOllSeE SAlStS, anu we 10 To-Day WRdL an ODSery-
ance of the principles upon which the Truth was
established, and by which it has been con-
Quoted, would have impelled us to do imme-
diately upon discovering that the letter was
forgery, and which nothing could have then
prevented but the desire to fasten the guilt
where it belonged. The Truth published
the letter in good faith, believing that you
were its author. While we so believed
neither temptation, threats, nor force could in
huence us to repudiate it, Likewise having satisfied
ourselves of its spurious character, false pride
nor selfmotive of any kind can restrain us from
announcing our conclusion, and thereby allaying
the doubt that now exists respecting its authen-
ticity.
Hart would have been characterized bv
Mrs. Quickly as zone of those harlotry
players" Is it not brazen supple
He offered before the election to
declare the letter a forgery if General
Garfield would but promise his attorney,
Judge Dittenhoefer, an Office, and now
he protests that he has clung madly and
devotedly to it all the time since
because he believed it genuine
Its spurious character having now
been again discovered by him, he
again gives way to his feelings
and renders justice. Having procured
the defeat of the popular will
in New Jersey, Nevada, and Cal
ifornia, and greatly imperiled it in
New York, by misleading voters who
were for Garfield if he did not write the
letter and against him if he did,
the Truth now emerges from be-
hind its mud-cart and shamelessly
admits the fact that the infamous thing
was a forgery. The Truth will no more
be believed than was Hewitt when
he pretended to believe the letter gen
uine. If there is law in the land
the Truth will be held guilty until it de-
liyers up and proves the guilt of some
other party. 1t pretends to have newly

The Next National Convention.

Don't rise. We won't attempt to say
what ought to be done by the next Ma
tional Convention All that depends on
the things to occur and to be omitted be-
tween now and then. The road to
party success next time is for all
presidential aspirants to aid in
making General Garfeld's administra-
ton so successful that the country
will demand his reelection. If he sue
ceeds, no other man can be nominated /;
if he fails, neither he nor any other man
can be elected. As good mothers some
times say to the boys, the one who eats
the most bread and butter shall have the
most cake" No, it was not the action of
the next convention we started to discuss
it was simply as to how that convention
should be called.
The Chicago Convention made clumsy
and an unconsidered order on this SUBJ
iect, which, if not managed with tact, pa
tience, and party honesty, may lead to seri-
GUS difficulties and dissensions Mr.. Bout
well, of Massachusetts,, having moved that
the National Committee should within
one year make rules for the choice of
delegates to the next National COnyen-
ton, and issue call therefor, Mr.. But
terwOrth, of Ohio, moved an amendment,
providing for the choice of delegates by
congressional districts. The amendment
was carried without debate or considera-
ton, and the order adopted, as amended,
by hurrah.
The exciting controversies which
did so much to mar the har-
mony of the party at Chicago are
fresh in the memory of all reading
people. To discuss them now would be
but to invite the same acrimony which
then prevailed. Whether the party has
been represented in conventions hitherto
by States or by districts is aquestion ofhis-
torical fact. Whether the somewhat re-
markable order above mentioned was
madein its amended form to vindicate the
action of sundry persons who claimed to
be district delegates, although chosen by
State conventions, is only material
if the whole subject is to be
reopened. On the 7th of March
there will be a meeting of the
National Committee to consider this mat
ter. 1t may deny the binding authority
of an order hastily, and, as we think, i'm
providently made by conven-
ton called for specific purposes,
which did not include making codes
for future procedure; or it may
reopen the heated discussions which
came so near producing an explosion at
Chicago; or, what is probably bet
ter and wiser than all, it may
decide to postpone the whole subject
until within year or less of the next
convention, when new subjects of discus
sion viii have displaced the interest tenn
porarily created in the infant phenome-
non of misrepresentation" Wehope
the subject will be postponed until De-
cember, 1888.

evidence of the forgery. LIE

II Out.
The letter of B. G. Jayne, referred to in
the Truths publication, has the following ::
Fully understanding the imposition practiced
upon you by certainmembers of the National DEM
ocratic Committee, upon whose assurances you re-
lied with regard to the genuneneSs of the letter,
and knowing how earnestly yeu have worked toas
certain the authorship of the fraud by following
every ciew that seemed to lead to its solution, and
fully appreciating your oft-repeated declaration
that your only wish in the premises was to ascer-
tain and proclaim the exact truth, deem that in
justice to all concerned the time has come
when you should say the letter was a forgery, for
with proofs in your possession there can be little
doubt as to the real criminals.
The proofs in your (Hart's) posses
sion" ought to be forthcoming before the
guilty associates of the Truth have fled
from the reach of the laws strong arm.

THE public has heard more or less of
the enterprising firm in Atlanta, Ca,
which makes business of hiring out the
convict labor of the State penitentiary.
According to the correspondent of the
Troy Times, their latest bid for notoriety
is in trumping up charges against
colored men of fine physique, whom they
manage to get sentenced on trifing or
exaggerated complaints to long terms of
imprisonment, by which means they get
the benefit of their labor for the best
years of their lives. One splendid look
ing negro got ten years on the
chain gang for stealing mackerel.
This method of beating the law could not
be practiced, however, without the collu-
sion Of the authorities, and it is deep
disgrace to the State of Georgia, as well as
tohumanity, y,itselfthatsuch harpies should
be able to prey upon the blood of inno-
cent victims. There is altogether too
great probability of truth in the state
ment to doubt it. tits just exactly in the
