How This Particular Republican
Lie Was Invented and Set Going.
z. E. F. in the New York Evening Post.
To the Editor of the Evening Post
Sir: Having read with considerable
interest your comments on the forged
quotations from the English papers,
more particularly that of the London
Times, which is quoted thus: "The
only Time England can use an Irish
man is when he emigrateS to America
and votes for free trade" l desire to
say that if Messrs. Plummer, Thurber
& Co. had taken one-half the pains to
investigate the truth of the above thatI
did, do not think that they, as honest
business men, would give countenance
to the circulation of the quotation.
A little over month ago, while pass
ing the Tribune Office, and seeing one
of the cards with the above quotation
and British flag printed thereon,
pasted on the door, stepped inside and
asked gentleman behind the counter
fine would kindly furnish me with the
date of the publication of the London
Times containing the above, or where l
could see copy of it. He replied that
he could not give me the date or tell
me where l could see a copy of the
paper; he suggested that 1 should call
on MI. Thompson OF TomkinS, man
ager of the Yale Publishing company.
1913 Williams street. Thither | wan
dered, and in reply to the same ques
tions put to him by me, he wanted to
know what wanted it for. told him
that Democratic friend of mine was
willing to giveS20 for copy of it. He
said that he could not give the date,
neither could he direct me to where |
could see the paper sought, neither
could he tell me from what source he
obtained the information relating to the
quotation which he is printing and cir
culating by thousands, but suggested
that | call OIL Pat Ford, of the Irish
World, which l did, taking a friend
with me.
Arriving at the Irish World Office, and
his private Office, where / stated my er-
rand. From Mr.. Ford'S manner l
Judged that he was little suspicious.
He asked me my name. / gave him my
card, which somewhat allayed his sus-
picions. gave him the same reasons
for wanting it, handing one of the cards
bearing the quotations. He frankly
told me that it was never published in
the London Times, but about fifteen OF
twenty years ago a pamphlet entitled
why Ireland is Poor" by John f.
Scanlon, of Chicago, was published by
Henry Carey Baird 4 Co., Philadelphia,
and the quotation referred to is the gist
(mind you, the gist) of what was coll
tanned in that pamphlet.
l desire to say that l hold in Mr..
Ford's handwriting, written on the back
of an Irish World letter-head, the above
information, and would cheerfully sur
render it to you if you can make further
use OF it. would also be willing to be
one of one hundred to contribute the
sum of $40 each. making III all $1,000. to
be paid for the delivery to your office
of one copy of the London Times con-
tanning the disputed quotation.

Indiana,

Cincinnati Enquirer.
How will she cast her presidential
vote on the 9th day of November, 1888?
That is one of the most interesting
questions now before the American
public.
In 1876 Mr.. Tilden carried Indiana by
plurality of 5,515 in total vote Of
43l, 07O. In 1880 Dorsey and DudleN
with 81 bills in long slips from the fed
eral treasury. carried it by plurality
of 6,641 in a total vote of 470,673. In
1884 Cleveland carried it by 6,512 in a
total vote of 494. 793.
In 1888 Cleveland will again carry it
by how much? The best estimates
are Democratic plurality of $4,000 ip
total vote OF 100000. j
Such seems to be the drift. Despite
the powerful leverage of LEGAL RepHb.-
lican candidate for the presidency
there are unnfistakeable indications OF
large Democratic aceesslonS from every
class. From the old soldiers, from the
laborers, from the farmers, from the
GreenbackerS, from the business men,
from the Prohibiti0nists-aye even from
Republican poIiticians-the recruits are
moving to the cause of Cleveland and
Thurman the cause of true cOnstt-
tutional government, honest admins
tration, and the lessening of the bur-
denS of the people.

Square-checked stockings in two de-

reporter didn't admire them, because
they looked like checker boards.
Then he was shown brides stockings

got any cheaper ones? / only pay 25

The shopkeeper looked as though he
wished he hadn't demeaned himself

25-cent socks, and he said in mid
winter voice:

better go down there" and he pointed
in the direction of Fourteenth street.
