says. and it is true, that he created the
Republican party in this State, and him

Dental elections by his good work in
disputed States, and now they have no
gratitude for him. They ought to have

The Washington organ of the Star
Route Ring bitterly assails the Presi-
dent, and, in discussing the appoint
ment of A. NJ. Gibson as one of the
special agents whose employment the
President approved, says: Surely,
Mr.. President, there must be some
mistake about this, but if there is
mistake, it is dreadful cne--a mistake
