The notes are transferable but must be pre- sented for payment within limited time, so l that they cannot long circulate as currency. A document whi ch has just been issued by | M.

 The Boston Herald reminds it's readers that liars need good memories and says that the men who charge that Garfield was bribed to nominate Stanley Matthews to the Su- preme bench in the summer of 1880, by 8 contribution of $1OO, 900 from Jay Gould for to consult dates before making this charge. The Herald continues: There was no vacancy on the Supreme bench at the time of the New York conference. It was understood, how ever, that efforts were making to secure the resignation of Justice Swayne, and it was equally we'll known that President Hayes had determined to nominate Stanley Matthews when the vacancy occurred. The resigna- ton was procured January 27, 1881, six months after the alleged bargain with Gar field and President Hayes immediately nomi- mated Mir. Matthews. His confirmation was accepted as matter of course; and, despite the feeling of it's unsuitableness, manifested in many directions, this would undoubtedly have followed but for the quarrel of Senator Conkling with the President The senator. as chairman of the judiciary committee, ''hung up" the nomination ss means of compelling President Hayes to withdraw the objectionable nominations for New York which Mir. Conkling had slowed away in auother pigeon hole. Both parties were stubborn, and the nominations never came to vote. It was to ''bring Matthews into court," as President Garfield expressed it, and secure for him the right to vote b5 the Senate, that the nomination was removed at the personal request of ex- President Hayes and other Ohio politicians. This was felt by many welI-wishers of Garfield to be 2 mis- take but one due to his excessive good na. ture and desire to oblige his friends.
