Henry Ward Beecher's stand in favor

They are afraid that his position will re-
vive the old scandals against his character

gross immoralites as Grover Cleveland.

of their accusations. They will probably
try to keep it alive in some shape until the
election is over, but the truth will extract
the venom from the SANDER and render
it harmless.

Effect of the Mulligan Letters

The publication of the new batch of Null
lgan letters is evidently doing Mr.. Blaine's
candidacy good Those who read them
carefully and candidly find nothing in
them that should be a reproach to Mr..
Blaine but. on the contrary, they do find
much that shows great regard for his tinan-
cial obligations and strict honor and tidel-
ity in his business dealings.
The New York Tribune has published
both the old and new series of letters in
full, so that its readers may have the full
and complete list from beginning to end.
There are many who do not recollect as
distinctly as they wish the letters pub
lished eight years ago, and some who
never saw them. to whom the publication
of the whole lot will prove acceptable and
satisfactory. This will be the best method
of meeting the slanderous misrepresenta-
tons made about these letters by the dem
ocratic organs who have taxed their inge-
nuity to the utmost to pervert and distort
their meaning, The letters will speak
for themselves,
In regard to the letter which Mr.. Blaine
had tor years been charged with suppress
sing. but which appears in the lot recently
published, a statement has been made by
Mulligan recently, in which he says there
was a letter-press copy of that letter in
the package which Mr.. Blaine took IRON
him. aud which Mr. Blaine did not read.
The Tribune Justly says: The light
of truth shines right through so wstery a
lie as that. The story exposes itself. Mr..
Mulligan complained that MIR. Blaine had
suppressed this important letter and there
by concealed the truth? Very well; why
did he not produce the letter-press copy and
cover Mr.. Blaine with confusion? What a
laundering tool as well as an arrant knave
MIR. Blaine must have been to suppress
not the original letter, nor even the letter.
press copy of the original letter. but an or
binary copy in Mulligan's handwriting
Would he not have had wit enough to per,
ceive that Mulligau could make hundred
other copies of the letter press copy if he
chose to do so? Mulligan's story is mere.
ly another lie to help his friends out OF
their scrape. The letter which they &C.
cuse MIR. Blaine of suppressing proves to
have been in their own possession, and
could not have been in the Mulligau
package. Mulligan knew this, because
