spite the fact that the newcomer is
an Abe Lincoln supporter and his
sweetheart's sympathies are with the

fourth act. The play is sumptuously

The socialists, the majority of
whom are workingmen, are for God
charles because he is clearly the
friend of labor. He is one of the
most popular of employers, and will
workas hard in Congress for legisla-

"The distinguished Democratic candi-

ago and | am told he did me the honor
of giving me some personal attention.
He quotes some utterances from "The
Philadelphia Press" and expressed great
surprise that in view of its declarations
could appear in this campaign advocating
the election of the Republican ticket. 1t
is true that the words which he quoted
were not written by me, but that was so
slight circumstance that he altogether
overlooked it. Bat I do not skulk behind

The Herald calls the News Item
the gang organ" Gang is slang
word and used mostly by blackguard
politicians to malign leading men in
the Republican party. The News
Item is the organ of the Republican
party of Sullivan County; it was eS-
tablished as such. 1t is now advoca-
ting the election of the nominees of
the last Republican Convention. II
was an unusually full convention,
composed of delegates elected in each
election district, and they were un
auimous in electing their tick
ct. No one but coarse minded boo
die boss will call such men a ''gang."
Scouten says that the statement
made by us that Mr.. Rogers is mark
ed absent or not voting on on the
consideration of 253 measures il
"absolutely and unqnalifiedly false"
There is no use in wrangling over
This question.
We say that Edward G. Rogers is
recorded as absent and not voting OH
the consideration of at least 253
bills, measures or motions which
were considered by the House. We
say that 179 of these were bills on fl
nal passage, and the other votes on
vetoes by the Governor, motions to
indefinitely postpone, or amend
ments offered etc. We say the Leg
islative record proves the above state
ment.
We will put 800 in the hands of
Thos. f. Kennedy if Scouten will do
the same. We will appear before
+. J. Mullen Esq. and John II. Gro
min ESD. and five do not show by
the Legislative record that Rogers
did not vote as above stated, Mr..
Kennedy shall give Scouten our 800.
If we do show it Mr. Kennedy shall
give Scouten's 800 to the William
sport Hospital, as we do not want
any of the "grease" Scouten has
scraped out of the candidates pockets.
The above is Il plain business pro-
position. Scouten says we have
lied, we say he himself is the liar,
and our 800 says the same thing.
Come now John put up, or stop call
ing us names.
AS we do not want this proposition
to be subject of dispute until after
election Scouten must accept it be-
fore Monday, Nov. 27, and have his
money in Mr.. Kenncdy's hands be-
fore that time.
