Mr. Conkng has butted the inevitable again,
and emerged with another sore head

Mr.. COulIlIng mas DUIIcu the lucNlJdDic again.
and emerged with another sore head.
The Republicans of this State evidently believe
that ii the memory of Garfield Is worth anything it
II worth lighting tOr
Has this public forgotten Tuthilll Let us trust
not. TuthiIl was the member Of the last Assembly
through whom Mr.. COnklng shot his fiery speeches
agaipst the " ferocous and atrocious' persons who
took him at his word when he resigned. Tuthill
otciated in this capacity several times and rs the
Cuul,lug rhetoric not built for fluent and easy
delivery. Tuthill was much exhausted by the opera
ton. This service does not seem to ave been IA
voraby received by Tuthilrs constituents, for at
the recent Republican Convention in his district
the following resolution was adopted unanimously
on rising vote: " HcSOJW, lhat tine ac-
tion oil the Legislature IN concurrug with

by the election OF the Hons. l., O.. Lapham

bye to tutnll.
John Kelly remarks with his usual serenity that
Tammany can poll $4,000 votes in the county at
any time and he does not think the coming Dem
ocrattc Convention will be eager TO shut the door
in his face long that is the case. II they DO

There is a good deal of fcrocty and atrocity"
loose in this state yet iSBt there Mr.. Conklmgf
Governor Foster, of Ohio, tells correspondent of
The Philadelphia Press that he thinks he viii be
elected by fair majority, that the most the Re-
pubhcans have to fear is a light vote and that
great deal depends upon what course President
Arthur pursues. This seems to be the general
opinion III ONO.
1t is unanimously remarked by the COnkling
gans that the warfare upon Mr.. COnkling has be-
gun again. Oh, has it 7 And who is responsible
Was it the duty of the Garfield Republicans, who
comprise ninety-nine one-hundredths of the party,
to fold their hands meekly and let Mr.. Conkling
pack the Convention They are not doing that sort
of thing this year. and they not at all likely to
do 1t some other year either.
The Bourbons of Virginia show their fright by
bending all their energies TO an effort to get up
negro scare. They harping necessarily upon the
point that if the Opposition ticket succeeds the ne
groes will take possession of the State Government,
and ruin will follow. They about ten years too
late with this once able campaign slogan.
1t seems TO be another case of Spartan band"
Guiteaus brother-in-law is not likely to be a very
jealous advocate for him. He said recently to
Chicago Tribune reporter: There won't be any great
effort made can tell you that, to defend him, If
appear at all will simply put before the jury mat
ters relating to his mental condition, whether the
indictment is faulty or not. Nobody is going to
furnish any money to defend hi 'lnnot advance
HIM any, nor do propose to raj for this OBJ
ject. | am satisfied that no one d start sub
scnptlon and raise 10 cents thirty days for such
purpose"
