The last month of the presidential cam

future history of the nation. That day
will decide whether those who failed to

The narrow prejudice. the savage hatred,
the reckless contempt for the opinions OF

Free trade and slave labor was the motto

tried to stab the Union in the back, and
pretended that their only objection was to

Blaine and Garfield
MURAT HALSTEAD'S SIGNIFIcANT CoNvERsi
rIoN WITH THE LATTER.

TON WrrH THE LATTER.
have received letters asking whether it
is true that had conversation with Presi
dent Garfield about his relations with Blaine,
a short time before the horrible deed of
murder by the crank Guiteau. The fact
that had such conversation has been sew
eral times published, and it may be well to
state the substance of it again.
The time of this last talk with Garfield
was between half past 10 and half-past | |
o'clock on the evening of the last night OF
June, 1881. and the place the White House
The fatal shot was fired on the following
SATURDAY. morning, July . The substance
of what President Garfield said about Blaine
was, first, that no one acquiesced more read
lily and cheerfulv than Blaine with the an.
nouncement made at the first Cabinet meet
ing that the members would be expected to
confine themselves strictly to their respective
departments All had been careful not to
cross the lines thus drawn, and none more
so than Mr.. Blaine.
President Garfield further said that, as to
the New York appointments which had made
such commoriou, the whole responsibility
was with himself, and that he regarded the
imputatious upon Blaine in that connection
As particularly offensive, because thew were
attempts to beit,le his, (the Presidents }
part in his own administration. He said the
appointments AS they were made. were a
surprise to Blame as to others. The simple
truth about the matter was that President
Garfield feeling greatly disturbed bv the
New York difficulties, thought to solve them
by bold stroke that would be a sufficient
notice of his purpose to be himself the Pres
ident, and to recognize his own friends. and
after the shock he had it in mind to deal
generously with those who had been against
him. He believed it was his duty first to
assert himself and it was his cherished
purpose after that to make peace and heal all
the wounds that had been inflicted in the
warfare of factiaus.-C Cincinnati Commercial

Gen. Crooks letter concerning the

was pursuing the Apache marauders.
while the people of the United States and
Mexico united in urging him to make it a

of an army of agents and other employees
of the government, he was permitted,
when he had captured the fugitives. to
establish a colony of about 5000 Apaches
on the San Carlos Reservation in arizona,
and he says of the community in his letter
to Mr.. Welsh: ut is my firm belief that
there is not in your own State of Pennsyl-
