In order to defeat Hon. John Sherman
for u. S. Senator two years ago and secure
the place for himself, Gov. Foster paid
$500 for champagne spree at the Chi
eago convention, which he had inaugura,ed
with the view OF making himself solid
with the Garfield Administration. The
bill was not settled until some time after
the convention and when its payment was
demanded Foster paid up, and some OF his
benchmen started Out the report that II was
an unsettled bill of Sherman's-hotel ex-
penses for Sherman's delegation at the
convention. When interviewed upon the
subject Foster would say lie did not wish 10
talk about it, leaving the impression re-
main that the report was true and that he
had n,sgnanimonsly paid the bill to shield
the party from disgrace. The better class
OF Republican papers are discovering the
fact that lie ia doing the party more harm
than good by the low grade in which he is
endeavoring TO conduct the present cam
paign. They well know that Foster should
be the last man to accuse another OF pur
chasing votes 10 secure nomination or an
election. Here is what The Cincinnati
I;mes.iSsar says in regard to il;
"Goy. Foster has placed himself IN an
awkward position by accusing Judge
Hoadly OF buying votes. The iact that
the charge was made indirectly does not
shield the Goyernor from public condemn
alton as political .a'''sr mas oOSermo. Sn.ins,.

Cleveland Penny Press: The rule Of

years ago the place in which his power
was most effective was In the legislature,
for there the discipline was most complete.
Michigan and Wisconsin were the first TO
revolt, disposing his viceroys and choosing
Chris,ioncy and Cameron in their places.
Illinois followed suit, sending Davis to the
senate. The Independent spr, then spread
to Minnesota and Window, the kings ia
vurite, was sent about his business. But
the spirit OF restlessness was not wholly
| confined to the west and northwest. Ii has
been transplanted in New Hampshire,
where Rollins, the nominee of The reigning
family, has be n relegated to obscuritv and

1re likely to occur. Caucuses and conven-
tions. once the convenient methods OF eX-
pressing popular will, have lost iheii

duplicity. The people understand this
and tolerate them only because they have

realized how easy it wonfd be to get along
without either, they would both have beer

III the Sentinel interviewer correctly re
rorted Judge Reed couple oil weeks ago
the Judge is a straight out and out liar.
He saws we wanted him to pay MS Ice
of Sll.l5 without looking Mt his books,
and upon examining his books he found
we had drawn the money and receipled
for il. The facts are we had been noli.
6ed two or three months before that we
had drawn the money and receipted Tor

OF doing so we availed the first oppor'
unity TO examine the signature, and
nsked for this privilege only-not for the
payment the second time. The Judge did
mot either want to find it, or his books
were kept in shape that lie found it
very difficult to do so. Itwas finally found
however, and instead OF convincing Us
that we had drawn the money and put
eur signature to the book, we were more
fully convinced that sonIebody had done
this little courtesy for us aud never re-
ported to us the Transaction. Mr.. heeI's
action in the matter goes lar toward
convincing us of this, which we fully be.
lieve to he fact.
We would not accuse Mr.. Reed oil al
tempting to counterfeit our, signature, from
the fact that his photography would moi
warrant il. 1t is very difficult for him
to comprehend himself what he Intended
il for. But il seems that he has been IN
the habit of allowing Tom, Dick and
Harry to run the Office while lie takes ir
murder trials, &c. We have not III spac'
to 90 into detail at tins time, but ask an,
interested party to examine the Probate
books ms kept by Judge Reed, and see j
they think they are kept in manner tha

The new high license laws in the
West differ widely. In Illinois all IL
censes hereafter for the sale OF spirits
and wines are to be granted upon the
payment OF $500 year, and for beer at
$3.50. The Nebraska law puts the fees
in cities OF certain grade at 81, 900,
and at $500 for all other places. The
law of Iowa permits towns to fix the
amount, and there is no uniform rule
on the subject. In some places it is as
low as S75, and in others as high as

The paper can merely expose the evil

tiuences must work tho cure. And
right in this connection permit us to
make few remarks upon the work OF
the local paper. A. citizen of this place,
who for some reason unknown to us,

and when it humps it naturally goes up

newspaper man running around try
ing to find something to write about
people" IL he means to suggest that
people should be more free to hand IN
news items we heartily second the mo.
ton, but if, as we surInise, his decision
Is against the right Of the paper to
handle matters that come TO its notice
because he or some of his friends are
personally interested, it may be of in
terest TO him to learn that the newspa-
per was invented to publish the news.
That is its business. He will further
observe that scarcely an item of news
can be published that does not, to a
greater or less extent, effect some per-
son or persons. He can still 1urther
observe that it Is almost invariably the
truth that makes man mad. When
person is conscious of innocence in
the matter charged against him he is
almost certain TO seek an explanation
and have it set right. But when he
knows the truth has been spoken, and
any attempt at explanation will only
bring 1t out In more glaring light, he is
very apt to get fighting mad and want
to whip somebody, or else undertake
the job of privately convincing every
body that the editor Is miserable, ly-
Ing, nj eddlesome fellow. 1t is not on
ly the right but the duty Of the news
paper to discuss any matter that de-
mands public notice, and there is but
one way open TO the person who wish
es to escape unfavorable comment by
the press-behave yourself. And the
newspaper man who hesitates to de
nounce wrong because the offender
Is one of his best customers, or a man

sonal violence, is u coward unfit for
the position which he occupies. Peace
