MR.. PAULDING'S EXPLANATION.

He Claims to Have Acted for the Best.
but Only RENTED $3.50 to Salt Lake,
Gin \ Letter to W. +. Fulton,,- He
Had No Time 10 Send the Money for
the Stove.
In reply to the charges made BY one
Mrs. Fulton, who accuses me of being
dishonest, would state that Mr.. Full
ton came to me and authorized me to
rent the house on Second avenue to
the best advantage, and l did so bv
renting it to Paul Boulon for $25 per
month, on the oath of September,
1883, for one month. Judge Lem
mon drew up the lease, paying Lem
mon 81 and Boulon paying said Lem
mon 81, my commission being $3.50.
Boulon vacated the house and Mr..
John Condor moved in, the latter gen
tleman staying there only few days.
1t was in too bad condition for any
respectable person to live in, having "a
bad reputation. AS far as the rent
money was concerned, l enclosed the
balance of $3.50 in a letter and d.
rccted it to w. 7. Fulton, Salt Lake
City. After Mr.. Condor let some
parties got into the house and stole
the things. l had an applicant for
the house, If it was vacant, and what
things were left I moved to my store
room on Main street, and kept them
until Mrs. Fulton came to nv place
with Attorney Vineyard. returned
to her all the things and loaned her a
trunk to pack them in. She seemed
to be satisfied. l also paid, and have
receipt for $40, which l let Mr.
Rockfellow have to pay his expense:
to Salt Lake, he having Mr.. Fulton's
team here, and could not go unless he
had the money. Hence, l gave it tc
him.
AS for record, her record is pretty
we'll known here aud in Salt Lake
l think the citizens Of Haley can get
along if she does not put in an APP
pearance for some time.
AS to the stove,I sold it to Mrs
Chadwick for s45, paid by her.
had not time to send the money tc
Mrs. Fulton, so l gave the money te
Mr.. Culp, who went to her and gave
her the money and got a receipt for it
furthermore, she tried to blackmai
me into paying for all the things thai
were left in the house, she claiming
500 as fair valuation.
AS for having a slogging match wit
such woman, do not feel inclined
to soil my hands, and drag such
dirty scrape before the public. re

though they were so many corks, and finally
capped the climax by taking six kegs of beer
and keeping them up in air. with as much
ease as au ordinary man would as many
oranges. Flingng himself down on
basket of Piper Heidseck, the
sympathetic Watterson was again in tears
For while he is one of the oravest men in
the world, it takes but a word to break him
all up Pleading with Mr.. Tilden with all
the eloquence he could command, he beg
ged that he should desist, let up, in short, to
quit monkeying. From the cellar Mr.. Til
den dragged him over his farm" where the
same sly cruelties were practiced on Mr..
Watterson's overtaxed energies. Night at
length put an end to the trouble, and the
two men repaired to the library, where Mr..
Tilden casually remarked that he had read
somewhat more than 200 volumes during the
past winter.
And so this marvellous man went on, re-
yealing new feats OF strength OF mind and
body that were simply incredible, and might
we'll be doubted, but that Mr.. Watterson
has vouched for them. 1t appears
that he talked as Auently as he
walked. But Warrior Watterson is too wise
to divulge the mighty secrets he there
learned. Wild horses could not drag them
from him. Standing in mortal terror of this
modern Samson, it were suicidal for him to
give the snap away. Taken altogether, the
interview is one OF the most remarkable ever
known. As transmitted to painting public
it reads like police reporters account Of a
swell wedding. Such a combination of ed
itorial genius and manly vigor could not be
secured outside of these two men. Where
one is a giant in intellect and political sa-
gacity, the other is a Titan in strength and
Cupid in playful humor and ingenious
frankness. The public wants more. 1t cries
for it.

THE "BAR,Lr IN POLITICS.

Foraker is a poor man, and no one on
the ticket has bari. Of the ten named,
seven are ex-soldiers."
The above is clipped from an editorial ar
ticle in the New Albany Ledger, one of the
ablest Democratic papers in Indiana The
general tenor of the article is to the effect
that the Republican outlook in Ohio is very
far from bright. Looking for the explana-
ton, it seems to lie in the three lines above
quoted. The Republican nominee is COM
paratively poor man, and no one on the
ticket has bar'l. Plainly. it must stand on
its merits. The men most interested in the
success of the ticket have no money to spend,
and must meet their neighbors and fellow
citizens with empty hands. 1t is passing
strange that the fact that candidates are poor
men should be regarded as an omen of de-
feat. 1t is an insult to the honor and prob
ity of the people. 1t is no less than decla-
ration that their suffrage is a matter OF COM
merce, to be bought and sold as merchandise.
The imam with the bar'l," with all the cor
ruption that that implies has been in de-
mand by the Democratic party. In 1876
Samuel J. Tilden captured the Democratic
convention at ST. Louis by the liberal use of
money. Everybody knew the shameless fact
then and knows it now. In 1877 the same
bar'l was opened to buy an electoral vote in
Oregon. Encouraged by the result
OF the use OF money in 1876,
the Democratic party in 1880 again
sought out a man with bar'l, and the sec
ond place was awarded to millionaire. 1t
to say that he was nominated on account of
his money, and it is creditable to him that
his party was disappointed in their mamie
refused to be bled But Democratic ideas
are not Republican ideas. If poor man
has been nominated in Ohio, it is only his
tory repeated. In 1880 Garfield was poor
man. So was Hayes in 1876; so was Grant in
1865 and Lincoln in 1850. The record of the
party complete shows mon chosen on account
of merit, and not because possessed of means
for corrupting elections. The Republicans of
ONlO nave uOHe well 10 CnOOSe men VINO
have no bar'l. 1t is significant and
commendable too, that of the ten men NOM
mated seven are soldiers. Evidently the
men named as candidates have not won their
honor through the expenditure of money,
neither will they seek to corrupt the cleo
ton and defeat the will of the people by its
unlawful use. Let the report so abroad
among the people ofOhio that not one of
the Republican candidates has bar'i and
that seven of the ten have been soldiers in
the defense of their country Coming
from the ranks OF the people, the candidates
on such ticket deserve the support and
confidence of the people, and their election
should be guaranty that the will of the
people would be respected and their inter-
ests we'll guarded.

THE New Albany Public Press ''is for the
old ticket respectfully, earnestly and unre-
servedly, with heart and soul, if it be posi-
BILE to obtain the assent of Tilden and Hen
bricks. The Democratic heart everywhere
seems to throb in unison with this sentiment
and the old ticket would lead Democracy to
sure and triumphant victory" But in the
next paragraph it says this consent cannot
be obtained and, therefore, it is for McDon-
aid, first, last and all the time.

specuations as to Why MIR. Hendricks De-
sires to See 1t Nominated.
Denver Tribune.
The ewly-developed desire on Hendricks
part for the "old ticket" and his willingness
to take a second place. find ready explana-
small way in political life insur-
ance. He believes that Tilden is
the only man who can carry New York. He
believes that he (Hendricks) can carry Indi-
ana and thus insure the election of the
Democratic ticket beyond peradventure.
He believes, what everybody knows,
that Tilden could not live out his
term if elected, because the cares
and burdens of the office would
destroy what little vitality he has teft, And
he is willing to pay premium OF pride
on the old mans life and take his chances
for remuneration in whatever term of the
office there may be left between Tilden's
deathbed and the close of four years. 1t is
this sort of cunning which leads them to call
man Tallyrand-ih Indiana.
But it does not require much political
knowledge or power of analysing posi-
bilties 10 form very probable theory
that, just because of this condition OF
affairs, the "od ticket" would be more
ANONYMOUSLY defeated than any other
which could be nominated. New York
would not vote for it with the possibility of
the Hendricks succession, and, when we say
New York, we mean the conservative, imam
cial and non-poltical portion of the popu-
lation. Hendricks was rabld imitation
list, and this is crime against political
economy which NewYork never forgives. Po-
litical New York. meaning Mr.. John Kelly,
will oppose the ticket still more tercely Oe-
caIise of the possibility that Tilden may live
out his term. One will fight it because of the
chance of death, and the other will fight it
because of the chance of life, Between the
two it will certainly fall.
BY all means the Democracy should paint
on its banner for 1884 this lovely picture Of
ghoul waiting for ghost

March 81, since which time no tidings have
been received from her. Fortunately she

almost irresistible, and after having refunded

NEW YORK lady who was falsely accused of

A curious feature noticeable in cases OF this sort
is that the damages claimed are apt to be in in
