loch trial ]. NJ. Parker. Chairman Of
the Finance Committee Of the late New
Constitution party, continued his testi-
mony to the effect that Charles de Young
had frequently. in conversation with the
witness, announced his intention Of
driving the Kallsch family out Of the
State. Referring particularly to the
prisoner. on one occasion, In Q restaur-
ant. he drew q pistol. saying II he failed
10 drive them out by means OF bis paper
there was another way; that he would
have no hesitation In shooting . man
who stood In his way. The prosecution
sought to introduce documentary evil
dence showing that the Chronicle had
subsequently attacked the witness for
his conduct Of the affairs Of the Finance
Committee. thereby causing Ill feeling
towards De Young on the part OF the
witness; but the evidence was ruled out,
and witness testified that his relations
With De Young remained friendly until
the time OF the ~latter's death.
The defense then submitted the record
Of the Police Court aud OF Department
No. II Of the Superior Court, to prove
the previous scquittal OF the prisoner.

MED the plea OF acquittal, to which ex-
ception was taken.

Governor Foster has Filled Aimost
Every Part Of the state with Dis.
satisRaction.
[Mansfield Herald, Republican, May5l
The mistake Of Charley Foster is
that he has carried the tactics that sue.
ceeded two or three times in his old
district into State politics. The policy
Of currying favor with Democrats aud
neglecting Republicans in . Demo-
cratic stronghold, may win for time
or two. but even there it pals and mis-
carries after the novelty is worn off,
as evidenced by the extended and
growing unpopularity of the Cover
nor in his home district. As State
policy it is worse than a blunder-it
is q political crime. Ohio is Repub-
lican State when the party is unit,
and the great effort should be to hold
the party together, by a careful dis.
elimination in faver of Republican
men and measures-by Difference to
Republican opinion. By pursuing q
policy of honoring Democrats and
apostates at the expense of RApubli-
cans. Charley Foster has filled almost
eUe,y part of the State sUith dissatis-
faction, and brought the danger of in
difference and inaction uyon the Re-
publican hosts in the coming campaign.

ME B. Mitchell, Of Portland, Oregon.
The ceremonies took place on Thurs
day morning last, at the residence of
DIR. N. w. Porter, Rev. Louis Paine
officiating. Will. is the son of the late
Pref. I. o. Chapman, and is young
man of superior talent, fine education
and exemplary character. At the age
of seventeen he graduated in the class
ical course of Mt. Union College, with
the class of '76, having completed the
business course previous to that time.
He was one of the charter members of
the Cosmian Literary Society, aud was
favored with SOcie,y hOnOls at their
first annual entertainment. In the
spring of III he commenced the study
of law with Caldwell and Sherwood,
of Cleveland, and year ago was adj
mitted to the bar. For the past year
he has been practicing law in Cleve-
land. The bride is the daughter of ex-
Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, aud is a
charming young lady, who has been
educated at q Female Seminary in CAL
ifornia. A few years since she came
to this place for the purpose of COM
pleting her musical education, and
graduated in that department of this
College last year. The young couple
left on Thursday evening last for Ore
gon, which is to be their future home.

attempt to explain Garfeld's letter to

Indiana. by declaring that there is ne
allusion whatever to the Star routes

from that great swindle. He did want
Brady to furnish money to be used TO
carry Indiana for the Republicans, and
the claim that he asked it because
Brady had made money in telephone
stocks, is exceedingly gaizy.

GATH" in speaking of the election

GATH" in speaking Of the election
in New York, this fall, says;
Some Republicans are saying that
the action of Garfield will lose New
York to the Republicans. think the
State will go Democratic anyway,
chiefly OH account of the very wide
to Conkling among the edu-
Gated classes. His State Legislature,
elected in great part to put him hack
to the Senate, has been guilty of gross
and does not possess the conf
dence Of the people. The Administra-
ton of Tilden in New York was al
most an ideal one, and drew tens of
thousands of Republican votes for that
worthy for President.
Next fall New York is to choose the
six great Executive officers surround
ing the Cove. .or, the State Senate and
Assembly, together with county Off
GERS. If the Democrats can unite aud
make first-class nominations, they will
carry the State by such a majority as
will show other Republicans through
out the United States what an infiic-
ton on them and on New York Mr..
has been.
