A CONFESSION CT WEAKNESS.
Special to the Gazette. nc
WARRINGTON, Oct. 26.-The sSGAkdl
importance given to she letter Of MipisftsS
West by the Republican press zill not
make shy charge In tie Votes to be csst
on election day. The minister fell into
the trap set for him by tie Republican
leaders, but the EFFORT TO prove him the
BurchsEd Of the Democratic party Will
entirely fall. The msgaitying OF this let
ter and the attempt to use it for party
purposes Is coniestIon Of weakness and
evidence thai any straw will be caught at
BY the party managers, who are stIug.
Cling in sec OF political sdversity.
