ago ihr united states en dowed inagnilicieiitly with its lands and bonds and many valuable privileges a company organized to build theunion pa cific railway when certain shrewd managers of thisconcurn came to count up the cost of the work and to east up the sse.s to be applied to it they found an enormous balance on the right side ofthe book lu order to absorb this balance < and transfer it to their own pockets thev • immediately proceeded to form an inside i i ing to build the road they bought an ■old pennsylvania charter called he ted , if mobilier which was admirably adapted for the s ii die iu view and under that i charter na began the execution of one ■oi most the remarkable and successful frauds in history , as officers of lhe union pacific the , members of the ciedit mobilier contract ed with themselves for the construct ion of the line and fixed tlieir own figures for the work they thus stripped the i union p.uii.c of c ei thing of value be longing to i and set it over to the crcd ! it mobilier with one baud they robbed in treasury of the railway company and with the other thev stuffed the plunder into lhe trrasnry of the construction ling whence it was distributed to the individ ual conspirators in the form of dividends of cash bonds and stocks p.iu the united states in slight return for its unexampled bounty had taken a first mortgage on the property this was inconveuient to the ring having absorb j ed everything else they now desired to | put a lirst mortgage on the road and to \ i take the bonds of that also rut that j ' could be done only by getting rid of the i ti st mortgage of the united states ; that ! , again could be « ll'ectcd only by the act of , « ongress to simple niisded and hon ; est men this would seem like a very dilli i cult thing to aeconip.i.sh ; to them it ap ! pea red easy enough they set apart a certain amount of the enormously valua ' ble stock of the credit mobilier stock ! which represented both the plunder of the j j past ami the plunder of the future — and j i gave it to oakes ames who agreed to place it where it would do the most good he was a member of congress and was not unjustly supposed tn know exactly how to employ it in order to cor rupt the sources of legislation with this corruption fund he bought fce vice-pres ident several senators and the chairman of the leading committee of the house then by the votes aud intlunene of these men the desired legislation was had and a new field f pillage was laid open to the ring iu whit i tiie government and tiie stockholder of the union pacific were equal sufferers it was not possible that a series of transactions at once so colossal and so in famous could be concealed forever there came a day when the sun spread this ini quity before its readers in almost every detail it was the most shocking revela tion of official venality and corruption ever made in the whole course of our his tory investigation followed and the guilt of the accused members was clear ly ascertained with a few exceptions they added the crime of perjury in the testimony before the committee to the crime of bribery among others james a garfield was bribed ; swore that he had not been brib j ed ; was convicted of bribery aud perjury by the testimony af ames and by docu nientary evidence of conclusive character and the committee composed of members of his own party reported him a6 a bribe taker and a perjurer on april 1 lj.7'2 and constantly after wards whenever the bill was before the house general garfield voted for the civil rights bill making it a crime pun ishable by a fine of 1,000 or a year's im prisonment for any teacher or other offi cer of public schools or officers of ceme teries or benevolent institutions or hotel keepers c to exclude negroes

tin presidency apart from the mil itary office and upon ibis gen hancock is naturally disposed to insist public opinion without regard \., politics it is morallycer tain will sustain him the circumstance is worth mentioning if only as another ofthe many proofs the general has lately given his tammany friends that he has a mind of his own and that under circumstances he is determined to own himself rato.nf.t role to say that hutory re peat itself is simply to give vent to an old truism the legislative body in buenos ayres his been subjected to bayonet rule there by the la>t accounts

: know that pending the settlement of the presidential controversy iu l^tti tro t-s were massed at washington for some occult pur pose which has never yet been divulged but which may be surmised it is a rough way of settling matters and is altogether in direct violation of iln first principles of lily city nevertheless strange to say all these outrages occurred not despotism as might be imagined but in countries professedly governed by republican institutions hancock's inai-c.trai fens — new york sept 21 — gen hancock j>n returning to governor's island from the ciiy to-day found a delegation from the phil kearney guard company c third regiment of the new jersey militia who called to present him a sixty dollar gold pen the guard held a charity fair and tlie pen was to be awarded to the presidential candidate who received lhe most vote's 375 were cast for hancock 330 for garfield and 30 for weav er the general returning thanks for the pen said that he had a strong regard for the city of elizabeth as being tlie former home of win field scott and of col clark his early commander mr george neubauer ofthe delegation hoped that the general would write his inaugural address with the pen the general replied by exhibiting two tur key quills saying that they had been pre sented to bin r the same purpose and iu case of his eie.'.uju would use ail three don cameron's political econ omy — senator don cameron has been mi a flying visit to washington it look alter his new house on massa chusetts avenue and consult as to the political situation he says as a matter of course that pennsylvania is all right for the republican candi dates there lias been some talk of the republicans s muling speakers and money intosever.il of tb so-called doubtful slates of the south but don says he is opposed to anything of the kind as he considers it would be of no use business and strife sectionalism a foe to prosperity — the protests of the ablest popular jour nals — conkling s suicidal policy af hntc — republican defeat probable from tlie renewal of sectional strife - ' conkllvg's assault upon the best i hope of repubfitcaxlgm j j from the new york evening post rep sept 2i it was throughout an insidious as ifjanlt upon the best character purpo i ses and hopes of the republican party | and under a pretence of vindicating and defending it put the argument in such a shape that the effect of it must be to repel every man of generous feelings and honest logic by whoin it is carefully read its only object was to revive and reinforce that narrow odious and malignant sectionalism against which all the belter members of the party have been struggling for the last ten years it says in so many words that the issue ofthe presented ni paign is sectional and only sectional and in order to prove that it frames what burke thought to be impossible the indictment of a whole people i in the lowest spirit ofthe carpet-bag | ger and the demagogue * * * j the entire animus of mr coukling's reasoning is that the president should be elected by the machine and when elected be controlled by the machine hi is not to address himself to an impartial administration ofthe duties of his office according tocc.-t:iin fixed i political principles but he is to be i come the instrument of predomina ting interests or of those parts ol the i nation where production consump i 1 ti mi buildinjr tilled acreage railwav traffic postal returns ect happen ! j to be in the ascendant but that is : not in the spirit of our constitution the constitution fixes with great min , iilei.e-s of detail the modes of our elections and when an election isl closed it regards the result as the ; act ofthe whole people in order to iret an expression of the manhood of the nation each vote counts as me and is as good as any other vote and as mr conkling himself says in the outset of his address the supreme the final and the only peaceful arbi ter is the ballot box hi that urn should be sacredly reconle 1 the con science the judgment the intelligence of all but no argues mr conk ling afterward it i.s not tho votes that ought tu be counted but the places where voles come from ifthey arc mt in by the south ivhich i un fortunately impoverished by a long civil war and many years of carpet bag extortion and riat they are bad and dangerous votes ; but if they are put iu by the north where com merce industry and manufactures thrive and large revenues are paid they are good and wholesome votes and entitled to the rule thi southern bugaboo ill order to justify his cold-blooded sectionalism and to carry the repub lican cause back to the state in which it was at the close of grant's admin istration ignoring the noble and etli cient services of mr hayes and his cabinet in healing old sores and bring ing about kind conciliatory feelings mr conkling gets up a tremendous bugaboo lt would bea frightful buga boo if it were not of the kind which bites off its own head his mode of censtrncting the scarecrow put in a logical shape would be this first tho democratic party if it succeeds would be controlled by the smith ; second but the south is only one seventh of the people of the union aud has but one-fourteenth of the producing commercial industrial tax paying and properly interests of the country and ergo third the whole vast business ofthe country will be at the disposal of a very inconsidera ble minority of those who are con cerned in it a formidable conclu sion indeed if it were valid ; but assumptions of fallacy lurk both in the premise and conclusion and no body needs to be frightened out of his senses the central states must decide the election the first assumption or implica tion is that the south can succeed by i'self which itoatinot even if we sup posed it solid and it is by no means certain that it will be so in novem ber it cannot succeed without the aid of two or three of the great mid dle states which are most important factors iu that sum of producing commercial industrial tax-paying and property interest which mr conk ling flourishes in its face it cannot succeed without securing a majority of votes in new jersey new york indiana and some state in new eng land or on the pacific slope now these determining states represent a very large part of those commercial industrial and property interests which are use to make the contrast between the north and south if our orator hud been an honest statesman as he is an ardent politician he would have instituted a comparison not between the north and south but between the republican and democratic states but then the entire basis ofhis super structure would have fallen away and he would have had no scarecrow at all the soutu would not alienate the north the second assumption is that the ' south which can only win by the assis tance of these great middle states would originate a policy if it had the power certain to alienate their sympa thies and support but what can be more preposterous than to suppose that it would run counter to the con victions and political prospects not on j ly of these great middle states but of that very large minority in the re publican states which constitutes an essential part of the democratic force — nearly half the people in fact how soon would it sink into utter im potence if it attempted to outrage the opinions or even prejudices of the north and west ? it could not live a year in the enjoyment pf its power and its allies at the north would be irreparably destroyed besides the largest states of the south and those which are likely to have the nu-t to say in its councils are mary ' land virginia kentucky tennessee missouri and arkansas which belong to the great middle group and whose i interests are nearly identical with j those of indiana ohio new york land pennsylvania under lhe opera tion of the living forces which bring localities together they would gravi tate more and more toward these and no political party call it by what name you will would dare to come in conflict with the tendencies of opinion in these mighty centres of civilization trade and activity these states though nominally belonging to the south because of their former toler ance of slavery are now under free influences rapidly amalgamating with the states near and around them they were never strongly southern and have become decidedly northern they would never cling for any length of time to a policy decisively southern , tlieir alliances are with the north and west and with them in the end they will be found * * mr conkling has done much hitherto to drive independent thinkers from their republican adhesions and his present ill-judged illogical and malicious speech will we fear quicken the de partures garfield's friends attention is drawn by the new york slur to the class of men who are now ardently supporting garfield for the presidency it is very true that birds of a leather flock together kilpatrick is a candidate for con gress on the garfield ticket secor robeson has also been selected as the republican standard bearer in the district where he lives landaulct williams is an aspirant for the senate from oregon and rests upon his past laurels as grant's attorney-general for a claim lo that distinction schuyler colfax i.s urged he says to become a candidate for congress and he deserves that recognition from the republicans who vindicated his venality when he was caught with ames bait in his pocket he was very quick to certify to garfield's high integrity and he stood on the same platform with him at chatauqua to give the party candidate the benefit of his moral support belknap has espoused the cause of garfield warmly though hr was at first indignant at the rejection of grant thus far he has not been pnt forward for congress but he is biding his time and is hopeful for political hon ors in the future babcock is enlisted zealou-dr in the cause with a grateful recollection that garfield made him tlie sole voucher for the expenditure of three millions and a half of appropriations voted to j the washington ring s»oon after the j payment of the 5,000 degolyer ; bribe boss sheperd proclaims from a i mine in mexico that next to grant i gen garfield is the man after his own heart and he has reason for this good opinion considering what the chairman ofthe appropriation com 1 mittee did for him in the winter of 1872-73 he knows how garfield i became possessed of his house at j washington and he holds in his own j hands evidence that made him quail ! ouce and will do so again whenever he sees fit to use it every one of the credit mobelier jobbers now living who shared with garfield in that corruption is shout ing loudly for his election dawes schofield patterson of new harap 1 shire wilson of iowa bingham i colfax allison logan kelley and ! the rest of the them as contemp tuously described the cattle he had ' bought are engaged in one form or i another in this business it is a cause of satisfaction says j the star that these public thieves are solid for garfield and that they have thrust themselves to the front so far j as to be seen

raising a big ne gro held an umbrella over him great was the enthusiasm for wise and paul by the radicals what the democrats of north car olina have done in the cause of edu cation is easily seen from the subjoin ed table what the republicans did not do is also easily seen they came into power in 1868 and spent noth ing for schools ; in 18g9 they spent more than a million of dollars but nothing for schools they wasted and destroyed the educational fund and the children ofthe state received no benefit from it the democrats came into power in theyearl870 and ' they have constantly given increased

throughout an insidious as ifjanlt upon the best character purpo i ses and hopes of the republican party | and under a pretence of vindicating and defending it put the argument in such a shape that the effect of it must be to repel every man of generous feelings and honest logic by whoin it is carefully read its only object was to revive and reinforce that narrow odious and malignant sectionalism against which all the belter members of the party have been struggling for the last ten years it says in so many words that the issue ofthe presented ni paign is sectional and only sectional and in order to prove that it frames what burke thought to be impossible the indictment of a whole people i in the lowest spirit ofthe carpet-bag | ger and the demagogue * * * j the entire animus of mr coukling's reasoning is that the president should be elected by the machine and when elected be controlled by the machine hi is not to address himself to an impartial administration ofthe duties of his office according tocc.-t:iin fixed i political principles but he is to be i come the instrument of predomina ting interests or of those parts ol the i nation where production consump i 1 ti mi buildinjr tilled acreage railwav traffic postal returns ect happen ! j to be in the ascendant but that is : not in the spirit of our constitution the constitution fixes with great min , iilei.e-s of detail the modes of our elections and when an election isl closed it regards the result as the ; act ofthe whole people in order to iret an expression of the manhood of the nation each vote counts as me and is as good as any other vote and as mr conkling himself says in the outset of his address the supreme the final and the only peaceful arbi ter is the ballot box hi that urn should be sacredly reconle 1 the con science the judgment the intelligence of all but no argues mr conk ling afterward it i.s not tho votes that ought tu be counted but the places where voles come from ifthey arc mt in by the south ivhich i un fortunately impoverished by a long civil war and many years of carpet bag extortion and riat they are bad and dangerous votes ; but if they are put iu by the north where com merce industry and manufactures thrive and large revenues are paid they are good and wholesome votes and entitled to the rule thi southern bugaboo ill order to justify his cold-blooded sectionalism and to carry the repub lican cause back to the state in which it was at the close of grant's admin istration ignoring the noble and etli cient services of mr hayes and his cabinet in healing old sores and bring ing about kind conciliatory feelings mr conkling gets up a tremendous bugaboo lt would bea frightful buga boo if it were not of the kind which bites off its own head his mode of censtrncting the scarecrow put in a logical shape would be this first tho democratic party if it succeeds would be controlled by the smith ; second but the south is only one seventh of the people of the union aud has but one-fourteenth of the producing commercial industrial tax paying and properly interests of the country and ergo third the whole vast business ofthe country will be at the disposal of a very inconsidera ble minority of those who are con cerned in it a formidable conclu sion indeed if it were valid ; but assumptions of fallacy lurk both in the premise and conclusion and no body needs to be frightened out of his senses the central states must decide the election the first assumption or implica tion is that the south can succeed by i'self which itoatinot even if we sup posed it solid and it is by no means certain that it will be so in novem ber it cannot succeed without the aid of two or three of the great mid dle states which are most important factors iu that sum of producing commercial industrial tax-paying and property interest which mr conk ling flourishes in its face it cannot succeed without securing a majority of votes in new jersey new york indiana and some state in new eng land or on the pacific slope now these determining states represent a very large part of those commercial industrial and property interests which are use to make the contrast between the north and south if our orator hud been an honest statesman as he is an ardent politician he would have instituted a comparison not between the north and south but between the republican and democratic states but then the entire basis ofhis super structure would have fallen away and he would have had no scarecrow at all the soutu would not alienate the north the second assumption is that the ' south which can only win by the assis tance of these great middle states would originate a policy if it had the power certain to alienate their sympa thies and support but what can be more preposterous than to suppose that it would run counter to the con victions and political prospects not on j ly of these great middle states but of that very large minority in the re publican states which constitutes an essential part of the democratic force — nearly half the people in fact how soon would it sink into utter im potence if it attempted to outrage the opinions or even prejudices of the north and west ? it could not live a year in the enjoyment pf its power and its allies at the north would be irreparably destroyed besides the largest states of the south and those which are likely to have the nu-t to say in its councils are mary ' land virginia kentucky tennessee missouri and arkansas which belong to the great middle group and whose i interests are nearly identical with j those of indiana ohio new york land pennsylvania under lhe opera tion of the living forces which bring localities together they would gravi tate more and more toward these and no political party call it by what name you will would dare to come in conflict with the tendencies of opinion in these mighty centres of civilization trade and activity these states though nominally belonging to the south because of their former toler ance of slavery are now under free influences rapidly amalgamating with the states near and around them they were never strongly southern and have become decidedly northern they would never cling for any length of time to a policy decisively southern , tlieir alliances are with the north and west and with them in the end they will be found * *
