AN ABLE DOCUMENT.
from the DuQuoin Tribune. ]

lrtVm tuc DuVuOln IrDune,
The recent untru,hful assertions made
by John Il. Thomas, member of congress,
concerning the balloting Of the convention
that nominated him, and the profane, COW.
ardly and BLACKBOARD epithets profusely
applied to me as the chairman OF that con-
vention, seem to require some notice at my
hands.
Thomas has been saying that, had il not
been for my unfair decisions, he would
have been declared nominated much soon
or than be was, and that on the final ballot
he really received ll6 votes.
To disproye his assertion, l here submit
arecord of the ballots as they occurred, the
correctness of which can be substantiated
by the oaths Of dozen men more truthful
than he, as | viii show before | am done
with him:

as, and whom else it may concern, that du-
ring The meeting Of that convention, no
difficult question presented itself for deci-
sion. Not one. No injustice was done
him or any one else by the rulings and de-
cisions Of the chair. And all the
outcry aad uproar in the convention aud
out of it, including the honorable gentle
man himself, are but the offspring OF ig-
norance, chagrin and malice and on par
with his indecent and vile accusations, in
dulgcd in while perambulating through
the country,
In connection with the foregoing false
hood with which lie stands branded, will
ask the attention of my readers to his false
statements concerning the Halliday appoint
ment. 1t seems that on the recommends
ton of Mr. Thomas, DR.. +. A. Halliday
Democrat, but q worthy gentleman, no
doubt, was appointed to very desirable
and very lucrative position in the Indian
bureau at Washington. On being called
upon to give his reasons for recommending
Democrat, instead of Republican, for
this desirable position, Captain Thomas
said that Senator Logan first signed Hali-
days recommendation, and afterwards he
signed ii, under Mr. Logans name. Five
respectable gentlemen make oath that
Thomas made the above statement at n
public meeting, I have copy Of their
affidavit before me- Now, hear what Gen.
Logan says. Gen. Logan says she never
signed any such recommendation that he
has no acquaintance with +. a. Halliday,
the appointeew am acquainted with
Gen. Logan's handwriting, aud read his
letter of denial over his own signature. lu

Don't no live in glass house1 Did it ever
occur to him that the man who wages u

Why could not Capt. Thomas, after re-
cciving the nomination, have pursued n
magnanimous and concilta,ory course, n
course calculated to unite discovered par.

We Confidently Assert and can Salts
tactOrily Prove

there is no instance on record of case OF
dyspepsia or torpid liver that cannot be
relieved and positively cured by the sys-
tematic use of Simmons Liver Regulator
This is no vain boast, but an established
fact and sufferers from these disease deny
themselves the blessings of health and
comfort by refusing to give the Regulator
trial. 1t is no compound of adventurers
but meritorious medicine which has won
its high reputation in countries where
torpid livers prevail and where Nature
supplies the roots and herbs to cure the
diseases common to its climate.

upon the men whose votes he nay greatly
need in the near future--men who hal ex-
pected, until recently, to vote for him. but
now will notl Ny antagonism has been
forced upon me, WAS elected chairman
of the convention by the unsolicited votes
ola majority of the delegates. All through
the contest, before the convention was
called aud during its session, expected
Captain Thomas would be nominated, and
so expressed myself. In this belief spec
tally requested Col. Burgess, chairman of
the Perry county delegation, that in the
event of his nomination, he would move to
make it unanimous, and he agreed to do it
and he did do it, and the motion was I'm.
animously adopted.
But the olive branch was not accepted
in the spirit in which il was rendered. A
mortal ottense had been committed by the
presentation to the convention Of other
names, as candidates for congressional
honors. Mr.. Thomas had been forced to the
wall and would have been defeated, but for
the intrigues of illegitimate proxies The
same rancorous spirit that had previously
been aroused against these other cand-
dates before the convention, was invoked
against them and their friends afterwards.
Assumed dignity had been wounded and
the insult must be wiped out.
Whoever had raised hand or voice in
favor OF Fountain, Smith or Damron must be
ostraclsed, cast out and pursued to the bitter
end. But human endurance has its limits.
Forbearance is not always virtue. High
minded, honorable men will not be
dragooned. The spirit of manly independ.
ence will assert itself And "snk or swim,
live or die, if John r. Thomas will bite
his own nose of, let him do it. Whom
the Gods would destroy, they first make
mad

Cause we expressed the opinion, at proper
time and IN proper way, that the Repub-
lican party could select as their standard
bearer an ADLER man. 1t cannot be dis.
gusied that widespread dissatisfaction exists
toward Mr. Thomas. He is confessedy a
weak and selt-conceited man. He puts on
pomIOus airs aud assumes chivalrous
bearing, lily betting man of his small
mental calibre. Many of his constituents
doubtless know his status at Washington,
and the estimation iu which he is held by
his fellow members of the house of repre-
sentatives, better than he does himself. 1t
is with modification we have to admit that,
in native intellect and scquired abilities,
he is the weakest man VINO has represente
Southern Illinois in congress for the last q
years. He aud his special friends have
assumed defiant aud naughty air TOWARD
