An.Open Letter to the Irish World"
From the Kirkville. Mo. Gazette.]

from the h1fKVllle, MO, daZeLCe.I
Mr. Patrick Ford, editor of Irish World:
Sir. You devote page of your space
every week to the publication of letters,
purporting to be from Irishmen in different
parts of the country, who have been Demo
Gratis, but are now going to vote for Blaine.
Those letters are manufactured to order
and paid for by you, for the purpose of de-
coying Irishmen into the enemies camp.
Not one of your correspondents ever was
Democrat = not one per cent. of them are
Irishmen. The letter from your Irishman
(bless the mark) at Kirkville, published in
in your issue of August 9th, gives
your whole scheme away. There are fifty
or sixty Irishmen in this settlement (Adair,
Missouri, not one of whom will vote for
Blaine, or Butler either; notwithstanding
your Kirkville shireling" says we are 90
ing to vote for Blaine. Here's his letter:
FRESHMEN OF THE WEST AGAINST CLEvE-
LAND.
KIRKvILLE, Mo.
Editor Irish World:
We are glad to know you are so nobly
opposing that common hangman and foe to
Irishmen and workingmen, Grover CIeve-
land. Out West all the Irishinen are going
to vote for James G.. Blaine, the poor mans
friend. JOHN r. MUsICK.
Now, Mr.. Ford, if this is a sample of
your Irishmen working for Blaine, you are
spending Mr.. Blaine's money to no pur-
pose. This man, Musick, would think it
disgrace to be seen speaking to an Irish
man, He is SO bitterly opposed to the
Irishman and his religion that if he thought
there was one drop of Irish blood is his
body he would open vein and let It out.
He is, and all ways has been, a 0fgoted
Republican.
When Irish citizens of the United States
were languishing in British prisons, while
Lowell was minister to England, under
Secretary of State Blaine, did Lowell make
any effort to release them, or have them
released? Did Secretary Blaine make any
ing so? Irishmen will answer this question
at the polls.
1t is manifest to all that you are hired to
deliver the Irish into the hands of the Phil
istines. But have care, Mr.. Ford, lest
the tide of Irish indignation set in against
you. If it does, all the money placed at
| the disposal of Butler Dana and yourself
cannot save you from the odium you de-
| serve.
| From your lofty-assumed eminence you
will not stoop to notice this. Oh, no! but
you will stoop to take your pay from Blaine
and Logan stoop to conquer" as it were.
| If should send 1t straight to you it would
never see daylight. But I will leave it
open and give it to the press of the resident
city of your bogus correspondent and | will
take good care that it is well circulated
throughout this broad land.
Yours for Cleveland and Hendricks,
MICHAEL HAYES.
Adair, Mo-, August "a, 1884.

The New York Times Independent Re-
publican) says that "for Blaine organ to
tell the truth would be a mortal insult to
it's candidate"
Il would require a search warrant to find
Republican paper that offers that kind OF
| "mortal insult to it's candidate"
They seem to be particularly careful not
to commit that kind OF offense. They stu
diously comply with his wishes, except
with respect 10 his request in reference tc
the publication of the Mulligan letters, and
they know him too well to believe what he
says upon that subject.

Saws Sim to Joe, 'Maine has gone Re-
publican by an overwhelming majority.
s'That can't be, says Joe. sit must have
gone Democratic" But says Jim, "the
report is reliable that the Republicans have
carried it by 100000" "Well." says Joe.
81 don't believe it, because the SPECTATOR
said the Democrats were going to carry
Maine"
Moral: 1t won't do to rely on the SPEC
TAToR.-Highland Recorder.
The above shows the divice to which the
Recorder has resorted to cast discredit upon
the SPECTATOR, for the purpose OF impair
ing the influence it is exerting against the
Republican party in that county. ouch
fabrications will fail of their object, for
their want of truth is apparent. There is
not man in Highland county or any other
county, who can truthfully say that the
SPECTATOR said "the Democrats were 60
ing to carry Maine" We do not suppose
that there is a paper in the United
States that expected or ever said, "the
Democrats would carry Maine.''
The Republicans carrying Maine is the
old story of ''the Dutch taking Holland. F"
The Recorder will have to learn to give its
fabrications some appearance of probability
or verisimilitude of truth before it can sue
coed in its purpose to impair the confidence
of the public in the character of the SPEC
TAToR for honesty and truthfulness,
We would exhort the Recorder to ''try,
try again" 1t may improve, for there il
certainly great room for improvement. Ii
| it's effort to discredit the SPECTATOR, the
Recorder has shown what degree of credenct
its statements are entitled to. Its fabricat
| ed collouuy is "boomerang."

 It was very quiet yesterday around the different voting places. The vote was un- usually large and the most of the ballots had been cast before noon.
 Among those who came home to vote were Mir. Leslie H. Russell, of New York city, and MT. Edward Rice, of Thomaston.
 Election returns were received at the tel egraph office, but quite large number went over to the city to get the news last night.
 There were many rumors on the street yes terday about the election, but no stock was taken in the reports, which, as it was proved afterward, were false.
 MT. H. Lee Mallory came home to vote yesterday for his candidate. Mir. Mallory re- turned back again to his business yesterday after casting his ballots.
 Mir. George N. Thompson is home on a few days visit He will remain here for a short time before he returns to the far West, where he is interested in the mines in Colorado.
 Mir. Fred. Farr, resident of Meriden, has been sojourning here for few days among his old friends and former companions. He returned to his home yesterday afternoon in time te vote for his favorite candidates.
 The Fl. H. Strong escort returned home about half-past four o'clock Tuesday morn ing from their trip to Meriden. All speak of the good time they had and the most hospita- ble treatment they received from the Repub- lieans of the Silver City.

Malachi Edwards and Michael Rosenstein, two laborers employed on the town farm, were arrested in Hamden Monday for steal ing apples. Hamden people have been a good deal annoyed through the theft of fruit by the town farm hands, and Edwards and Rosenstein, after repeated warnings, were arrested as examples. A justice fined them $20 and costs each, and they are now in jail
 John Barton was before Judge Studley yesterday morning, charged with stealing an overcoat valued at $16 from the stand in front of Joseph Kaiser's store on State street Monday night He tried to sell it at Ben Levys place, but Levy had heard of the theft and held the man until the officers ar rived. Barton claimed to have come from Boston, but Judge Studley thought he was professional thief and fined him $1 and sent him to jail for six months.
 Frank McPartlen and Patrick McGreevy were before Judge Studley yesterday morn ing to answer to the charge of breach of the peace against John Carey. Carey was going down Congress avenue when he was hit in the face and kicked in the side by one or both of the men. He testified that he never saw them before in his life and didn't know of any reason for the assault. Judge Studley thought that it was high time to do some thing with men who assaulted persons with out any provocation at all. He sentenced each of the accused to six months in jail Thomas Benjamin (colored) was before the City court yesterday morning for discharging firearms in the city limits. Judge Studley fined the accused $7 and sentenced him to thirty days in jail, which was the full penal ty of the law.
