TRAITORS OF THE DISTRICT.

1t was understood BY men who were
taken in the confidence Of Mr.. Chase Of
the NINMH DISTRICT that when the dele
CATION was elected it would support Gen.
Logan delegates or form combination to
defeat Mr. Conger. Z. A. Savoy, who, by
the way, was recommended by personal
friend to the Republicans of the District
and one who could be relied upon. To show
the trachery of hall and this man savoy,
we desire to invite our readers to the fol-
lowing statement of facts: Several months
ago Savoy came to the president of the
Ninth District and informed him that there
was fight waging against him by Messrs
Charles Jones, John Middleton, and
others, and that he was not party to it,
but would like to see the Young Mems
Party win and that he was fully in ac-
cord with the movement in which Mr.
CHASE was engaged. He has denounced
friends and foes to win the confidence of
respectable citizens. In the convention
on last Tuesday Mr.. Hall was asked by the
chairman of the Ninth district delegation
if there was any dissatisfaction and
whether they intended to vote against Mr..
Chase as temporary chairman. Their an
swer was no, but they demanded of Mr..
Chase to see certain man and get from
him fifty dollars to vote for certain candi-
| date who would be nominated, and if the
money was not forthwith coming the cake
was all dough. Mr.. Hall was introduced
to certain gentleman and was told that
he could get all the satisfaction he de-
sired, but Chez Mr.. Chase would not be a
party to the transaction. Mr.. Hall en-
tered the convention and said to Mr..
Chase that he be damned il he would
sell out his delegation unless he got the
money cash. He is defed to deny it and
perhaps he can be told something else. It
is here asserted that his sole crave was for
money and nothing else, and would have
others to sacrifice principle to satisfy his
greedy appetite for money. The next pre-
text that was set forth was that Mr.. Chase
was opposed to the admission of the Con-
ger delegation of the Seventh district. 1t
was we'll known fact that he was and
was successful in defeating its admission.
for the temporary ehairmanship of the
convention; the vote was solid till the
Ninth district was reached, at which juno
ture, savoy said that he was requested to
cast the vote of the Ninth district for Mr..
Talliferro. Messrs. John Middleton and
Charles Jones stated afterwards that sa-
voy and hall misrepresented the matter to
them. e. a. savoy went to DR.. Adams
and told him that he would vote for him
and no other man. No two men have been
more false to their friends than hall and
savoy. Their action in the last Tuesdays
convention has ever caused the opposition
party to look upon them with suspicion.
The Ninth district will never send two
such men again. mr.. hall will be con-
vinced that he as well as mr.. savoy have
caused every body to mistrust them here
after. The columns of the BEE are open
ed to both gentlemen to make any kind
of reply they desire. Even the Conger
men whom they supported, have said that
although they assisted them in the con-
vention they can never again be trusted
AS they were false to their friend they
never can be trusted by their enemies.
