Matthew's Memory.

The statement Of NJ n. Greer Of Buf.
falo township, regarding the Judicial
agreement of ten years ago, makes &c
change in the matter. He simply for
gets all about it, just as he nowadays
forgets the horse he rides to the station
and postoffice, and walks home.
He il now well up in years and has be
come feeble physically and mentally
while Walkers affidavit is by man in
the prime of life.
1t is now over year since certain
citizen Of Fairview township told Of
that he had "been pledged to Judge
Greer for three years" which shows
that Greer conceived the idea of violat-
ing the pledges that secured his election
as Judge. and Of making an effort to re-
nominate himself about four years ago
--or about the middle Of his ten year
term.
Since that time he has taken advan-
tage Of every opportunity offered by hi
position land they are numerous) to
make friends for himself by placing
men under obligations TO him for favors
rendered; and this has made him a
formidable candidate, notwithstand-
ing the outrageous things he has done
on that Bench, and his abomniable pri-
vate record
To one acquainted with the dark side
Of John N. Greer's character, the hing
ing of this campaign upon mere ques-
tion Of veracity between the candidates
and their friends seems supremely ridic-
ulous; though Mr. Galbreath's letter TO
Mr.. Hepler, and the silence Of Messrs
Bowser and Goucher, both Of whom we
have quoted, fastened Greer's lie about
the pledges upon him as closely as could
