Conkling's stalwart sleuth- hounds
are still on the track of the murdered
president. The stalwart cause scrupleS
at nothing to advance itself. They are
numbering Garfield over again and are
seeking to bury the last vestige of his
good name in the same grave with the
cowardly assassin who did what each
of them was glad to see done, but had
not courage to do. They bring three
distinct charges against him aud back
them up with all the malice of sneaks
who see themselves beaten and going
back into Obscurity and disgrace. They
say he was unfaithful to his general,
sneaking behind to malign him; that
he then lied out of it; and that he be-
trIyed Sherman at Chicago. The stall
wart papers are full of it yet and letter
after letter is trumped up and tortured
into substituting the charges preferred.
The facts are, rs to the first two charges,
that Garfield was better general than
Rosecrans and saw the erroneous errors
he was committing, and like a patriot
he pointed them out to him and to the
secretary of war. The disasters that
befell Rosecrans verified Garfield's pre-
dlctiions and vindicated his Judgment.
He did not do it in malice to his chief,
but to serve his country, as he was
sworn TO do. He would have been a
traitor If he had done otherwise. 1t
was no part of his duty to cover up
delinquencies of his superiOrs. He
owed higher allegiance to his country
and he violated his own feelings TO
show himself man. He would have
deserved all this abuse II lie had served
his general at the expense OF his
country. AS to betraying Sherman,
that worthy never had any chance to
lose, and as long as there was a hope
that he might be nominated Garfield
was true to him. His defect came from
other causes and Garfield's nomination
was not comprised by himself
One week from tomorrow the vile
murderer will pay the penalty OF the
grossest crime that has blackened
modern history. His aiders and
