fraud is found in another column Of
this same issue Of the Economist,
where we find the following editorial
matter:
There seems to be some heat In the Louisiana

where dls FGrmcTs Union h quite strong, Mr.

Our readers will discover two facts
in the above which demonstrate the
utter hypocrisy Of the Capitals
claims First, in Louisiana, the place
to which this paragraph relates, the
alliance and the democratic party are
arraigned against each other-the
democratic candidate for Congress
has refused TO place himself in line
with the alliance demands and the
alliance is therefore taking steps to
nominate a candidate OF it's own. Sec
ond: This very paragraph that is
claimed to be part Of President
Polk's letter is the production of the
old bourbon democratic organ Of New
Orleans called out by this very oppo-
sition of the alliance.
1t is the thinnest fraud yet attempt
cd, and a party with the long expert
ence Of the republican party. ought
to be ashamed Of it. The Capital
may howl itself hoarse about 'fakes,"
but the party has put its foot in it so
early in the campaign that nothing
but disaster awaits it in November,
While defeat was before assured, the
exposure Of this fraud will make that
defeat a Waterloo. 1t is the dyna-
mite bomb Of 1890

eleCting a solid democratic ticket,
and especially Of maintaining white
supremacy. The following is the
clipping:
The democrats must carry every district
possible; they cannot afford TO loso one in
Louisiana. The mon who are fighting Mr..
Blanchard or who oppose any democratic
candidate for Congress In this statoj the

The Washington SANDER bureau
has attached this clipping to Presi-
dent Polks address to Mr. Loucks,
printed the address with this attach
ment over Mr.. Polkssignature, print
cd fac simile OF Mr.. Folks return
envelopes, and is scattering this in
teresting document broadcast over
Kansas in order to sustain the charge
of the Capital that President Polk is
Advocating the necessity OF the domi-
nance Of the democratic party and
the continued supremacy of the white
over the colored race Of the south.
The scheme was sprung too soon,
however, and it will prove another
boomerang to the party Of dynamite
and fraud. II is in harmony with
the late effort of Ex-Governor Craw-
ford and the Topeka Capital to create
dissention in the alliance by assailing
the character Of Col. Polk. That Of
fort proved 30 disastrous a failure
that il is found necessary to bolster
it up, and this is one Of the schemes
devised for that purpose.
We called attention in THE ADvo-
GATE Of the 9Th inst, to the scheme to
obtain from sub-alliance secretaries a
directory Of the alliance, Offering
secretaries one dollar each TO furnish
the names and postofice address Of
the members; and we cautioned our
members at the time that it is for the
purpose Of furnishing them with this
kind Of literature that these names
are desired. The detection OF this
fraud in time to expose it emphasizes
our caution. 1t will be impossible
just on the eve of election to meet
all Of the frauds that will thus be
scattered over the state, and if our
people are not Consumate fools it will
be unnecessary. A party that has
resorted to dynamite, and TO the fraud
herein exposed should be we'll enough
known that nothing it may invent
should merit the belief of a Hotten-

All the ISLANDERS upon the fair name
of our leaders and our candidates arc

that prompted the COfFeyville dyna-
mite plot and the fraud herein ex-
posed.

THE STUPIDITY or THE CAPITALS DE.
REMAE.

NNNpHs
The CapitaIof the 9th inst, with
its characteristic stupidity, affirm the
genuineness Of the forged circular.
Let US examine briefly the grounds
OF this affirmation
First-The Capital says;
u ls enclosed in POlks O1icial envelope with
his official mark printed on the upper left hand
corner, and IL addressed In the handwriting Of
his private secretary
This is clincher AS there are no
republican printing Offices in the
country where an envelope can be
counterfeited as we'll as a circular,
and no expert penman TO counterfeit
the penmanship, Of course our readers
will accept this as indisputable,

OF course it is. The scheme was
COncocted for the purpose OF deceiv-
ing the people, and 1t was necessary
to It's success that it should bear all
the evidences OF genuinness. We
clip the following from the Leaven-
worth Times, a good orthodox repub-
liCan journal, which may throw some
light on this scheme:

Has this visit Of the chairman OF
the republican central committee to
the city of Washington during the
hurry Of an important campaign, and
when his party was crying for some
thing to be done, any significance in
connection with this forgery which
makes it's appearance Immediately
after his return TO the state? We
leave our readers to Judge.
Third:
The only possible inference from these facts Is
that two or more copies Of that edition Of the cir
cuIar intended for the south were, by the secre-
retary's bMnder, sent 10 loyal Kansas.
Let us see. All who read the letter
of President Polk will see that it is
not circular for general distribution.

Both challenged the author, and it was
agreed faally that Mr. FOurnier should

After great difficulty the duellists
reached PlattsbnIg, n. Y, but not before
bsipg placed under arrest for few hours
at Sherbrooke, Qiebec. Pistols were
used. The duelists fred one shot with

Mr.. Fournier expressed himself as salts

Mr. Vidal drifted to the United States.
He was elected to Congress for district in
Louisiana, and subseq 1ently went TO Peru

Tripoli as consular agent. He returned TO
Canada a year sgo. The meeting Of
the duellists in the House OF Commons

THE PRESBYTERIAN PROBLEM.
How the New York and Pennsylvania
RCpreseptatIveB Stand on the Question.

How the New York and PenntylvanIa
Representatives Stand on the Question.
NEW YORK, February 26 The Times
says: In the struggle over the revision OF
the West Minister Standards, now going on
in the Presbyterian Church, the members
of that denomination in New York and
Pennsylvania are occupying positions di.
reclly opposed one TO the other. The lines
are closely drawn, and rs the voting in
the presbyteries proceed it may become
question whether the New York or Penn
sylvenia Presbyterisns have the greater
ibflaence with the church at large.
Pennsylvania is the bulwark Of con-
servativs Presbyterisnism. Without o
single exception the Prssbyteries of that
State have declared that the standards of
the confession of faith that have stood for
more than two hundred years shsll remain
unchanged. The New York Ptssby terians
sre almost ss solidly opposed to the old
standards. Excepting only the Long Is
land Presbytery, the thirteen Presbyteries
that have voted on the question in this
State have pronounced in favor of arevised
aud mOderniz ID confession of faith. Two
explanations are offered of this somewhat
sectional drawing Of religious lines. O1e
is the strong conservatism that has already
been shown By the members Of the church
in Pennsylvania, and the other that they
hssteaed to vote on the question before
fully discussing il.
Z Under the lava of the Presbyterian
Church. two-.hirds of the 2l1 Pfesb7teries
in the United States, must vote in favor OF
revision before The general assembly will
formally pass upon the question. Fifty OF
these bodies have already voted. Fifteen
OF them-ten of which are in PennsJl.
varia, have voted against any change and
thirty-five have pronounced strongly in
favor of more linersl declaration of faith.
The thirty five Pfesbyteriea which have
voted in favor of revision, contain 199, 939
commandments, while those opposed have
liz. 775 cOmmunioants.
In conclusion, the Times, says: The
question is already getting beyond that OF
mere revision, and those who are we'll in
formed on the sutject, predic! that new
creed, ard 20. mere revision Of the old
One, will result.
