Mr.. Henry sparnick

Mr.. Henry Sparnick m Z the speech
nominating Henry Wolcott for governor.
He spoke with the authority and as the
representative of Mr.. Wolcott and his
friends when he placed Mr.. Wolcott's name
before the convention. In his speech he
| said: +" If Mr.. Wolcott's candidacy fails /
stand here to promise that he and his
friends will spare no exertions to elect
whomsoever you may prefer in his stead
The Denver Tribune, as the newspaper
n.outh-piece Of Mr. wolcottis political as
pirations, iterated and reiterated, before
the conventions that the Wolcott men
were not composed Of holters-that they
would never bolt. The friends of woicott
were loud in their yociferations, during ths
sitting OF the convention, that there was
not drop of bolting blood in their veins.
How stands the case now? Have those
promises been kept? The fact is, there is
not a republican opposing Campbclps cleo
ton, who was not a warm personal friend
of Wolcott's, or has been influenced to
colts. Fortunately when men, or news
papers, oppose more fortunate political
opponent through disappointment at their
own defeat their influence is small, so far
as damaging the object of their malice and
spite, but is large in its reaction upon
themselves 1t is almost always political
death. If ths Wolcotts, Senator Hill and
the Tribune had fought the republican
battle through this year rs though it was
their own, they would have endeared
themselves to the republican party and
strengthened their hold upon it. The
course they have pursued has greatly
weakened them. There is yet time for
them to do the right thing, and thereby
regain much that they have already lost
The defeat of Campbell through their OPP
position-and there is no other opposition
in the republican r.inks-will wrap the
winding sheet OF political death so closely
around the forms of the Wolcotts and Sem
ator Hill that they might rs well be laid
away in their graves rs to live on expect
ing political preferment from the republi-
can party of Colorado.

HENDERSON FOR LEGISLATURE.
What a williamsburg Nan Thinks of
his own Candidate.


WILLIAMSBURG. October sS, 1851
EDITOR RECORD:
1t is duty tina; the people of Fremont
county owe 10 themselves to see that Q
man of sterling worth, integrity and hon
esty OF purpose represent them in the legis-
lature- Whatever claim Mr.. Rockafellow
or Mr.. Kyle have TO those traits of 'char.ic-
ter. William Henderson, the 'democrstie
candidate, has none. 1t is well establish
ed fact in this community that he has con-
veyed to second party his store with all
the contents for no reason, that can be as
signed at present, which leaves him with
out q dollars worth of property to cover
his debts. He has made his boast on sew
eral occasions that if any one thought that
he Henderson, would leave this camp
bursted they were simply mistaken. 1t is
quite evident to US that Mr.. Henderson
meant what he said. From the change he
has made in his business, he is not going
to be withou; funds when he leaves us.
Mr.. Henderson is but short time
amongst US and not sufficiently known to
be honored with such an office of trust.
The only and best thing that can be said OF
him is that he WAS the first man to start u
gin mill in Williamsburg, and was one OF
the most interested friends OF Tom. Walling
the pugilist. Should the citizens of Ere
mont county send him to Denver as theiI
ieve that he would not take the thirty

DOYLE ON HEARST.

John Doyle has been SO profoundly af-
fected by the letter which somebody wrote
for George Hearst in the Examiner the other
day, that he wants the owner of the
"sack" to take the United States Senator
ship as a reward tor his public spirit. This
shows how very cheaply people like Mr..
Doyle can be sold, when their prejudice
has run away with their Judgment. Doyle
is monomaniac on the railroad question.
When he was Railroad Commissioner his
views were moderate enough, as his pub.
lished reports show but since he lost
official responsibility he has become per.
fectly furious on this topic, and the extent
of his mental alteration is now indicated
in his readiness to accept Hearst as the
Moses who is to lead him out of the anti
monopoly wilderness. But perhaps we do
Mr. Doyle some injustice. Perhaps what
he is really thinking of is that he could
write Hearst's speeches if the latter should
get into the Senate

CHILE AND FRELINGHUYsEN.

1t is said that the Chilean minister at
Washington has been using impertinent
language to Secretary Frelinghuysen, and
papers which think that Mr. Blaine's South
American policy was very brilliant are
arguing that this is the result of the Gov
ernments peaceful and timid course. Had
Mr.. Blaine had his way the course Of the
Government would certainly not have been
peaceful. 1t would have employed the
most threatening language up to the verge
of actual war and then it would have
discovered that it had not the means of
enforcing its position. As it happens the
present Government is aware of the fact
that the United States does not possess
navy, and it is judicious enough to cut its
coat according to its cloth, as the saying is.
Mr.. Blaine's policy would have led the
country into position from which it would
have bad to back out shamefully. Mr..
Frelinghuysen's course will, at all events,
spare us the shame of backing out

THE EGYprIAS DIFFICULTY.

There appears to be some misapprehen-
sion as to the outcome of the Egyptian
difficulty, notwithstanding all that has
been written upon it. One view which
we encounter is to the effect that the
Egyptian people are somehow contending
for their hearths and homes t" that they
are supporting Arab Pasha in his endea-
vors to clear the country of foreigners
and that they are entirely justified in
doing this, because the foreigners have
been plunderipg and expressing them. 1t
must be said that very profound igno-
rance of Egyptian affairs goes to the for
nation of the above. mentioned view. The
truth is that the European Control, as it
is styled, was instituted to check the ra-
pacity and extravaganza of the Egyptian
rulers. These latter had for long time
been expressing and plundoring the Egyp-
tian people in the most cruel and nerciless
manner. They had raised heavy Euro
pean loans, and had squandered the money
upon debauchery and lavish display. They
had hypothetical part of their revenues to
secure these debts, but as they themselves
collected the taxes, and as half of the
money so collected was stolen by the
Pashas and never reached the khedive s
treasury. while the Khedive on his part
appropriated all he could of what re-
manned, the prospects of the creditors were
dubious. In this state of things France and
England interfered, and insisted that the
finances should be placed under the control
Of European officers, as material guaran.
tee for the payment of the interest. This
was done, and the results have been in all
respects most beneficial to the Egyptian
people. The old oppressive practices OF
the tax-collectors and the Pashas have
been completely done away with. The
Fellahs have been treated with humanity
and justice for the first time in their ex-
perience. Agriculture has revived I'm
der the new financial regime. The tax
payers have been able to save money, and
have not been obliged to bury If, as hereto
fore. OF old it was thought impossible to
collect the taxes without using the basti.
nado freely. At present the Fellahs come
voluntarily to the tax-collector's office,
and pay in full the amounts which the
stick could not extort formerly. The fact
is that the European Control has been
wholly in the interest of the Egyptian
Fellahs, and that Arab Pasha represents
that element of thieving Pashas which
wants to restore the old regime of plumber
and oppression. Should the Control be
abolished Egypt would at once revert to
the degraded condition which existed
prior to its institution, and all the civiliz,
ing work of the past ten years would be

PAREELL AND DAvITT.

If the indications are trustworthy,
Davitt's attempt to supplant Parnell is a
conspicuous failure already. The Henry
George land plan does not recommend it
self to the Irish people at ALL They
neither understand it, nor will they have
anything to do with it. They do under.
stand the plan of Parnell, and that they
will support. The Henry George scheme
is impracticable, visionary, and inequi-
table, and no people in any part of the
world have yet manifested the least dispo-
sition to indorse it. As to the Irish, they
certainly are the last to accept the Gov.
eminent in the place of the landlords, and
it is plain that the proposition has fallen
still-born. Parnell has the confidence of
the people and the leaders, and if Davitt
persists in his new departure he will only
succeed in separating himself altogether
from the Land League, without securing
following of his own.
