Clayton. II Cure and Dudley.


 Powell Clayton and Judge Me Clure Poker Jack) of Little Rock have retained w. ". Dudley to as sist as attorney in prosecuting the State and people of Arkansas for hgh crimes and m1sdemeanors. The form under which the pfascu ton Is brought IS that of election contests, but the charge Is agamst the State-that "aiority of Its people are ballot thieves and as sassins; that, therefore, nc far cleo ton can be held n it. and that It follows logically that men selec ted for office oy Messers, Clayton and Mcclure, with the approval of Blocks of-Fiye Dudley, Esq, of Indiana, are entitled to Arkansas oft instead of the representa- tiyes of such T population of erim Inais as Arkansas has in its people who disagree with Messrs. Clayton, Mcclure and Dudley.
 The fact urged in support of all this IS that the only respectable member of the Clayton family was murdered ln Arkansas. His dis reputable brother charges that this WAS the crime, not of the mur derer, but of the Democrats of the State, and he asks to have them punished by Acknowledgement. Scarcely a pretenee is made Tn these cases of offering testimony to sup port an election contest. Mcclure and Clayton havo spent some s8o,- o0o of pubic money, chi fly in the Breckinridge district, to obtain ev- idence to support contests, The money was ostcsIbly spent fol he Federal courts, Tn winch every means vas used 10 secure conyr- tons. But the flmsy and fctiti- ous character of the evidence was so apparent that Mcclure was obliged to withdraw charges which, as in the h oodruff county cases, he now insists on before the eongres- slonal committee. In support ot the Clayton attempt at unsurpa- tion through the. o.tistranchisement of the SGste, he makes such trivial al- legations as that one DanSby, drunken man who disturbed the peace on election day n Cleveland county had his $500 fine paid by the chairman of the Democratic committce." He does not state what MT. BrcckInridge shows in answering--that this Democratic chairman was Danby's uncle, ana that MT. Breckenridge himself help cd him pay the fine, the two con trlbuting the fine from their own not over plentiful resources rather than allow the young man to serye a long term in jail for the offence of disorderly drunkenness from which Messors. Mcclure Clayton and Dudley themselves have not been always free, perhaps.
 This trio represents the most degraded and interruptions political methods conceivable. Ii the sum of all political villany is not To be reached exactly by adding Mcclure to Clayton, and Dudley to both, in order to divide by three for the eserqFe [ CT it's} ea se [ .:iical .,.."ay $ a flowing doctma, which. however its utmost possibilities

United States Silver Dollars Coined In
Enormous Quantities by n Gang of Mex
icans Who Operate Private Mint.
New YORK, Jan. 21.- Wall street
fnanciers claim to have discovered that
q band Of Mexicans calling themselves
"a private bank" have been coming
United States silver dollars and issuing
the same to Mexicans, who give them
in return for goods purchased on thir
side Of the line. The profit in this
scheme can be readily seen when 1t is
known that the United States silver
dollar of the present only contains
seventy-two cents worth Of the preci.
GUS metal. This alleged bank takes
seventy-two cents worth OF bullion and
with stamp, the exact counterpart Of
those used at the United States mints,
stamps out the dollar. There is nothing
counterfeit about the dollar and 1t is
therefore difficult to detect 1t.
The gentlemen who have made the
discovery are OF the opinion THAT this
Wholesale coming Of unauthorized sill
yer dollars has been going on for the
past two years and assert that at least
5000, ,OOOillegal dollars have been foisted
upon the citizens Of the United States
by the keen-witted Mexicans.

BLAINE,s RETIREMENT.


Rumors that the Secretary of State VIII
Soon Resign His ONCE Again Revived.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 20.--The Herald
revives the story about Secretary
Blaine's resignation. 1t says the belief
that Mr.. Blaine's resignation as Secre-
tary Of State is impending has become
very strong within the past few days,
and after repeating the rumors current
from time to time OF the strained rela-
tions between the President and the
Secretary, adds: 1.-THE death OF his son
Walker, 1t is believed, will furnish an
additional and very strong reason to Mr..
Blaine for quitting at once his place in
the State Department. Not only Is
Walkers death an irreparable personal
loss to. his father, who was greatly at
tached to him, but in the discharge of
his duties as Secretary of State Mr..
Blaine found his son an invaluable as
sistant, whose place 1t will be inpossi-
BILE to FIJI. Walker Blaine had the con-
fidence Of his father to degree which
naturally no one else could obtain, and
was thus able to relieve the Secretary
of State of large amount OF burden-
some work which will now necessarily
fall upon him."
