The Argus and Mr.. Blaine.

Vest ercay the Argus devoted column Of
its space TO explaining itself out of the diem
ma in which it was placed by the quotation
of its explicit statement made ou the Both of
September 1857, namely 'Wc know nothing
Of him Mr.. Blaine) which would injuriously
affect his standing in the personal and social
relations of life," in contrast with its recent
assertions that twenty-five years ago it did
know something which it was as willing to
publish now as it was then. Precisely what
the Argus lately august 7, 1884 said was
this, "They (Mr Blaine's supporters) know
very well that early in Mr.. Blaine's career
an incident occurred which with the conse-
quent episodes, was less paidonabe than
anything which the political scavengers have
ever alleged against Mr.. Cleveland; but it
was long ago. We kneoo all about it tsoenta,-
.Jfve gears ago and more We will not recall
and repeat it unless Mr.. Blaine's friends in
vite and insist upon it, What
they are willing to ask for in the way we
have indicated namely by going into the
grave of forgotten things in Mr.. Cleve-
lands reeord). We are willing to give
willing as we were twenty-five years ago."
This was threat, the meaning of which
we did not precisely understand, but we
awaited developments. In the course of
time the indianapolis Sentinel published it's
scandal promptly met by Mr.. Blaine with
the institution of a suit for libel Then the
Argus unmasked itself, by its talk about
this being ''a game of bluff like one ''once
tried on u.s." Thereupon we proceeded to
look up the record and discovered that bY
innuendo and metaphor the Argus did on
the 18th of September, 1857 apparently in
sinuate charge against Mr.. Blaine, then
the editor of the Portland Advertiser, of a
nature like that in the Sentinel and which
was the occasion of the bringing of a libel
suit against she editor of the Argus. And
we further discovered that on the Both of
the same month the editor of the Argus en-
phatically declared that he did not mean to
imply any such delinquency on the part of
Mr.. Blaine as the article of the 18th had
been taken to imply, that he regretted that
such construction had been put upon it,
and concluded as folows,-'We most cheer
fully add that we know nothing Of him
which would injuriousIy affect his standing
in the personal and social relations of life"
What then could he now mean by saying
"We knew all about it twenty-five years ago
and more?" What significance was there to
the profession of being "willing to give it
willing as we were twenty-five years
ago?" What was it that the Argus was pre-
pared to "repeat%'
In order to appreciate rightly the weak
ness and wickedness of the explanation at
tempted yesterday it is worth while to see
just what the original offence was. This is
the article from the Argus of September 70,
1857:
PERSONALITIES.

in the Advertiser without being recognized as edi-
tor, puts airs and paws round generally, as If he

The Argus is not entirely satisfied with
the statement of the seizures made by the
liquor sheriffs recently published by the
PRESS, and which showed that under Sher-
lift True's administration more seizures had
been made than ever before in the same
period Of time. The Argus seems to think
the seizures have cost too much, and that
there haven't been enough convictions.
We should have more faith in the Argus's
sincerity in this matter If it were not sup
porting for reelection Mr.. l. D. Sawyer,
during whose administration as sheriff, sell
cures were few and far between, and whose
liquor deputies were so notorionsy inefi-
cient-not to call it something worse-that a
protest was entered before the county COM
missioners against allowing their bills. If
we remember Alright the Argus failed 10 call
attention to their delinquencies, anl did
not express the opinion that their bills were
too large

The Democrats of the Second district
went through the form of nominating can
didate for Congress Monday. Mr.. A. S.
Kimbali of Waterford, who it was under
stood would be nominated, declined, and
the convention pitched upon Major D. r.
Hastings of Fryeburg, probably because he
was in the woods away from telegraph lines,
and there was, consequently, chance to
get through With their business and adjourn
before he heard of bis nomination and de-
clined it, as several delegates said he un-
doubleday would. Major Hastings is very
respectable Democrat, much better in many
respects than his party. His nomination is,
however, an empty honor, for the Democrats
concede that Mr.. Dngley will be elected by
large majority.

Cleveland appears to have been an ex-
ceedingly thrifty sheriff. While the aggre-
gate of the bills of his predecessor was
$26 639.S1, the aggregate of his bills was
$50, 9O6 SO, an excess of over $4,000. The
vouchers show that in many cases he charged
more than the law allowed and the Democrat
icboard which Investigated his bills cut them
down over $4,000. While sheriff he also op-
Grated as lobbyist at Albany, using lis .nfa-
ence to get through scheme which largely
increased his fees as sheriff He appears
while sheriff to have made no pretensions to
being a reformer. He was then engaged in
fealhering his own nes,.

The proceedings of the Androscoggin
Democrats In their county convention were
concluded with an address from that dullest
of living orators-Alonzo Garcelon. His
speech was confined almost entirely to de-
fence of the Stae steal, which he claimed
was justice personifed. The driving out of
the men unlawfully seated he characterized
as the "nonster crime of James G. Blaine,"
and he asserted that if jeff Davis was a
traitor TO his country that M. Blaine was to
the laws of Maine for the part he took in
the count-Out. We are Inclined to think
that the Democracy will not thank the ex-
Governor for thus raking up the most lis
graceful episode in their history, especially
IN the midst of a campaign in which they are
posing as moral and political Ieformers.

Two Car Loads Of Negroes, the Ad-

BERKELEY SPRINGS, August g. Exclu-
sive. There is just and widespread indis-
nation in this county over the revelations OF
the past twenty-four hours. For several
days an unusual number of negroes have
been coming from the East on the B. & o.
road, stopping, it is ascertained at various
small stations in West Virginia Little or
no heed was given this until yesterday, when
two carloads Of the Ethiopians, said to be
from Washington, passed Sir Johns Bun IN
charge of Conductor Cook, on board the
Chicago Express, bound for West Virginia
stations. An investigation followed, and
The Startling Discovery
that these negroes were the advance guard
of hundreds to be imported into this State
BY the Republicans was made. 1t is be-
Eeyed that already three hundred of these
imported voters are in the State and hun
dreds more are to follow. 1t is BY such
foul means as these that an attempt will be
made to wrest the little Mountain State
from the Democratic column. Democratic
Central Committees should be on the watch
out to prevent theses Wholesale frauds.

the FIVE charter members there is only one
now living, and that is DR.. J. l.. Devol, the
present fusion candidate for Clerk of Wood
county court The doctor was born in
Washington county, Ohio, on the old home
stead of his ancestors, better known as
Devops dam, FIVE miles above Marietta on
the banks of the placid Muskingum. AT
the age of Il years he came to Parkersburg
and read medicine with DR.. E. r. Stafford.

and also at McConnellsville, Ohio, but
having more taste for manufacturing the
Doctor abandoned his practice to certain
extent and erected furniture factory near
the scenes of his boyhood days, which he
carried on successfully for some time, then
located in Parkersburg and engaged in the
| foundry business to which he is now devot-
ing his time and energies. His first blast
was made September 7th 1878. In politics
the Doctor was Republican up to 1868,
when he claims that the G. U. P. left him,
since then he has affiliated with the Green
back element of the country and is the regu-
lar Greenback nominee for Wood county
clerk, and has been endorsed by the Repub-
icans who recognized the fact that they had
no man who could beat Col. Tom Smith
the present popular Democratic encumbent,
who is the nominee for reelection. The
Doctor thinks he can be elected if his
friends stick to him as they have promised

The Fourth district convention met here to-
day. 1t was called to order BY John X.
Thomson, Of Putnam. Writ R. Neale, of
Wood county, was made chairman and J.
W. Conners. of Calhoun, secretary. A. K.
Barbee. Of Mason, was nominated by &C
clamation. A resolution was adopted en-
dorsing Butler and West as the National
standard bearers of the Greenback
and Labor Party, affirming the dec
larations of the Buekhannon platform in
regard TO tariff and revenue and the sub
mission of the proposed prohibition amend
ment. They also congratulated themselves
upon the present friendly relations with the
Republican party in this Congressional dis
trict. Hoping that the patriotic spirit ex-
hibited by each may continue until the Fu-
sion brethren get their hands into the public
crib. Romeo H. Freer was nominated for
Presidential Elector. The Greenbackers
Of the Fourth Senatorial district held their
convention after the adjournment Of the

Repudiated Bond
and nominated George L. Spence, one Of

promises TO, we would like to know it.
