CLEARFIELD, Pa.
WEDNESDAY MORNINd, KOV. 10, 1!S.
Reader, If 70a want to know wbel li ffoing on
Id the bullpen world, juit read our edvettl.ing
eolurona, tho Spaeiat ootQUD to particular.
Jolin M. CIibbo received 1 voto lor
Connresii in Bradiortl township.
Georgo V. Turner, Auditor General
on tlio Prohibition ticket received 8
votes in tho county.
One- hundred und twenty-four votos
in I'iko township woro lullled for
Ilonry Alleman for Assembly, henco
tho blank for that township in the. Ho
puhlit an column in our tablo.
Samuel Calvin received 1 vote for
Supremo Juiljjo in 0;cula borough,
and 10 votes for Auditor Generul in
Decatur township, lie had been nom
inated on tho Prohibition ticket lor
Supremo Jud;o, hut rclused to accept.
I.v StssioN. Tho Congrihsional
Ki tu 111 Judges of this (XX.) district
are in session at Bellefonto, as wo go
to press, this (Tuesday) afternoon,
and wo aro therefore without tho
otuciul lacls; out Gov. turn us ma
jority will exceed 3,000.
Stuakiht, Indeed! In our noigli
boring borough on the Mosliitunon,
Philipsburg, Hancock and Garfield
tied each other at 131 each. Do Gol
yer's friends claimed '10 of a majority
on tho morniiiL'of tho election. Puck's
standing motto, "What lools wo mor
tals be," comes in -first rato on this
occasion.
A Good Hunner. Our friend Harry
M'Ateor, of Alexandria, was the Dem
ocratic noinineo for Senator in tho
Kranklin lliintingdon district, at the
rocontolcction. Toshow how lie closed
in on his competitor, Stewart, in his
own county (Huntingdon), wo need but
stuto tho fact that Garfield carried tho
count' by a majority ol 7-18, while
Stewart had only 225.
An Awrri, Disioint. Tho voter
who rcfusod to deposit his ballot at the
rocont election lor a man who was
novor oven charged with takinga bribe,
committing perjury, or selling himself
to jobbers, or grabbed ut a double sal
ary, compromised themselves awlully
when they handed their enrd to tho
Inspector labelled with tho name of the
other man.
A Sake Test Wo see it stilted that
lom Pedro, Kmpernr of Brazil, wished
to test a certain railroad brake. Ho
had ono adjusted to a car, and started
off fnr a trial trirt. Tho engineer soon
saw w hat seemed to bo a big rock on
tho track ahead, and applied tho brake,
aloppir.g the train wi'hin n f"w feet, of
tho obstacle, which proved to ho of
pasteboard. That trick wan cuto
enough for u Yankco to play oil' on
another man just us smart.
Not Likely. An exchange says:
Tho rumor that Genera. W. T. Sher
mun intends to givo up his present po
sition and go upon tho retired list docs
not find mnny believers. Tho Sher
mans, liko their now relations, tho
Camorons, aro not a retiring family.
They will "stick" while they have
breath ; and when too old to say
"thumbs up," they will transmit the
faculty to tho prccoding generation.
The BntBg Mark. Tho voters of
Lawrenco township perpetrated a joko
on ex. Governor C'urtin at tho rocent
oloction. They gavo him Garfield's
bribe murk, which bus now passed into
history, according to the Radical rocord
kept at Washington, D. C three hun
dred and twonty nino (32!)) votes. Gar
field understands tho figures as a loan,
no doubt ; hut will deny, of course, ai
ho always does, that it was a bribe,
That, however, is a question lor the
Court and the jury, ns tho lawyer
would say.
As Recorded. Tho fraud and crimes
practiced in this Congressional district
two years ago, by tho opposition, is
now very apparent to all honest per.
sons, without any othor proof than
that made by tho Return Judges of
tho District. If those who through
corruption and bribory seated Mr.
Vocum, can lcel comfortable nndor cur
rent events, they need not look nrouud
for an elephant's bido for fearof boing
punctured. Tho majority ol 3,050 for
ex-Gov. Curtin, for Congress, over Mr.
Murray, ono of their ablest champions
in tho district, is proof of tho former
crime, as visiblo as the sun at noonday.
Wickedness Prevails. A contem
porary states tho caso in this way :
"Our keenest regret at tho disastrous
result of tho election relates to Gen
oral Hancock. For such a man to bo
treated as ho has been is a National
aharoo. Jl was a hotter man than
tho Democratic party deserved for
candidate And his fate is a warning
to tho purest patriots and best men of!
the country that they should not as
pire to tho highest honors. No party,
in any campaign, baa ever presented a
man more worthy of tho respect and
love of tho American peoplo than tho
grand aoldior-statesman, whose namo
tho Pomoeralio politicians havo been
conjaringwith. Wa most have a higher
tone ol publio morals, a purer patriot
ism and moro unselfish devotion to tho
general wcllaro beforo any party will
have a right to use such a man as Gen
eral Hancock in the hope of gaining
votca by selecting a candidate whose
meriU ara greater that th denerU of
his party."

Tim Senats. In tho Forty-Fourth
and Forty-Fifth Congross the Senate
was Republican and tho House Demo
cratic. The former amused itselt by
standing in tho way of ovory mcasaro
ot relorm and economy uronosod
by tho Uouso. Tho Republican Sen
ate then bad tho advantago ol having
an Executive ol their own political
faith. In tho next Congress matters
will bo rovorscd. Tho Senato will bo
Democratic still, and by presenting a
determined front, can bring tho House
to terms by relusing to confirm tho
nominations ot tho Republican Presi
dent. SomoofGonorul Garfield's friends
say that ho docs not desiro an extra
session, but will merely call tho Senato
togethor to confirm his Cuhinet ap
pointments and for tho consideration
ol other important cxecutivo business
or, in other words, that ho would liko
to havo the Summer to develop a policy,
un'trammclod by issues which might bo
sprung upon tho country by a session
of Congress.
A iter the Battle. Tho Now York
Times, ono of the Jcading Radical or
gans of this country, "chips in" on the
tariff bnsincss in this way : "Our tax
laws will havo to be revised. Taxation
is heavier than it need bo. It is in
many regards unequal and oppressive.
Industries of iinportanco aro discrimi
natcd against in favor of others no
moro entitled to consideration. Theso
wrongs must bo righted. They can
not bo concealed under the general
plea of protection to American labor.
because they are injurious to Ameri
can labor. It will be fortunoto for tho
Republican party if its leaders show
tho courago and sagacity necessary to
deal with tho subject, becauso, in spile
of tho apparent ilrcngth contributed
to the patty by tho recent professions
of protectionist ideas, the people will
eventually perceive tho difference be
twecn real and fulso protection."
BoLti.T Stated. Jionowspaper man

An exchange ssys : "Tho majority
for Gailield in New York is not nearly
so lurgo in proportion us was tho ma
jority for Tidcn in Louisiana four years
ago. 1 ho allegations of fraud in Lou
isiana lour years ago were not nearly
so specific nor so well substitnlitited as
the evidences ol fraud in Now York
now. The Republicans then hud ono
Ilouso of Congress to witness tho
com, ling of the vote. The Democrats
now havo both Houses of Congress to
count the vote, to reject such Stutcs us
they seo lit, and to declare such result
as they may find tho circumstances of
tho case to warrant under constitu
tional forms ond according to Republi
can precedents. If Mr. Itnrnnni should
como to Philadelphia and select Win.
McMullin and .Samuel Josephs to go
over to Now York to superviso tho
count of tho votes, to muko affidavits
for Democratic witnesses, ns Garfield
mado them for Republican witnesses
in New Orleans, and in general to
frnmo tho Democratic case, wo havo
no doubt they could get up a much
belter ono for Hancock than Garfield
did tor Tdden. If Congress should
then constitute Messrs. McMullin and
Josephs a high commission to adjudi
cato their caso, in all human probabili
ty they would decido tho Presidential
contest in lavor 01 Hancock. How
would tho Republicans liko to havo
corn measured to them in their own
bushel ? Jloiv would Mr. G.irfi"M liltp
tobohoistcd with his memorable petard
of 1876-77?"
STAND A It D FACTH.
Tho Centre Democrat, in alluding to
current ovonts, states tho caso in this
way: "'General' Garfield appears to
have hcon elected President of tho
United Stutcs. General Hancock ap
pears to havo been defeated. When
John Welsh and Lloyd Aspinwall, tho
exclusivo representatives of Republi
can aristocracy, sit down and calmly
contemplate tho hribe-tukor, tho dis
honest public servant in tho Kxecitlivo
Chair of tho Nation, wo hopo that they
will nt least think kindly of tho un
stained and gallant soldier. Gurfield
will vio in history with the worst ot
all the accidental hoirs to power. So
long as ho lived, Credit Mobilier, Do
Golyer and salary grubbing will bo
classed among tho littlo things that
naturally belong to our President.
President Garfield, Heaven savo tho
mark I Wo pauso hero to remark that
the present fraudulent incumbent of
tho Presidential offlco secured his posi
tion through tho influence and agency
of General Garfield. Garfield was in
strumental in hoisting upon tho people
of tho country a man who was never
elected President. By tho aid of office
holders and tho unstinted uso of money,
Garfield steps into the purchased and
briho liiintcd chair of tho only fraudu
lent President this country has ever
seen."
A Good Send-oit Our mutual and
oxcollent friend, John C. Calhoun
Wbalry, editor of tho Clinton Demo
crat, has been elected to tho Legisla
ture by tho peoplo of Clinton county.
Wo nolico by the voto in the city of
Lock Haven, that whilo tho Federal
and Stato ticket have a majority of only
about 45, ho gets awoy with 135.
This is a decided mark of respect,
when wo tuke into consideration the
fact that such heroes and statesmen
as Hancock, Curtin, and others, were
on tho sumo ticket, and fell so far bo
hind. John, liurrisburg is an awful
hurd ploco lor conntry people to resort
to, and then get away with tho samo
reputation I hoy look with them.
Side bv Side. Ono of tho freuks ol
the rocent election is tho defeat of Gen.
Coflroth, Democrat, in tho Iledlord
Cambria district, and that of General
Harry Whito, Radical, in tho Indiana
Clarion district. Thoy havo both been
in public life for a long time, and aro
well known to their constituents.
They rodo hobbies. Tho former en
listed largely in tho bounty business,
and the latter in ship canals on tho
Alloghenlos. Both havo como to grief.
Garfield will shoulder Whito, no doubt,
and Ooffroth must look to tho Altonna
Postoffico and the bounty peoplo.
A Freak. Ono of tho qnocr things
brought to our notico whilo tho Court
was tallying the Tote cast at the ro
cent election was that the Green
backers in Ilurnside township, who
polled twenty-firo voles for Wcavor
for President, "ntEcod" tho namos of
somo of their electors down as low aa
aevonteen votos. This discount of
thirty-three per cent, on electors is one
of the svslom.

MACK AXD HAXCOCK MEET.
Tho New York Express gives the
following account of tho meeting be
tween General's Hancock und McClel
Ian, on Governor's Islund tho day after
tho election :
'For a man who had met tho ono
crushing deleat of his life General Han
cock sustains himsill nobly. At 0
o'clock yesterday morning ho went to
his official headquarters and was soon
immersed in his daily military corro
spondenco. Ho hud read tho morning
papers nt brcukm't and know tho ro
suit. Not a word fell from his lips,
not a movement of his impassive face
gavo token of emotion within.
Two or three visitors called, and
were received by General Miichell in
the ofiico. At 10 o'clock the ferry
yacht brought over to Governor's Is
land a gentleman who had onco him
self lasted tho hitter cxperirnco of tho
soldier candidate for President Gen.
Georgo H. M( ('lellaii. It wns a kin
tired feeling, doubtless, that drew these
two men '.oether.
' Well, General," was the visitor's
only greeting.
' Mac, I tun glad to seu you," re
sponded Hancock.
'1 am sorry."
."I am sorry, too, hut only fur llie
people and tho party."
Tho other visitors withdrew, leaving
tho two Generals ulono.
Reader, look at tho men that succeed
ed in defeating these two heroes and
statesmen who havo mado a rocord for
honor, abililv and statesmanship sel
dom reached by uiiy iiiuu. ret, lliey
aro cut down, and cheap men get their
places. j
A DAMXAHLE It' AUjVcV
Tho wickedest tricks ever played off
on fico jiersonB sinco tho formation of
our Government, (excepting during
tho war,) woro practiced ut tho recent
election by that infernal innovation on
freo elections, United States Marshals,
(Army substitutes). Hut wo aro glad
that there is occasionally a Judge on tho
higher licnch who has some respect
for his honor and oulh of office, and
declines his views in accordance with
tho Constitution and tho genius of our
institutions.
Tho United Statos Judges of New
York, both I!, 'publicans, a lniinistuied
a merited rehuko to Chief Supervisor
Davenport recently, and Judges, politi
cians and voters in other Statos would
do well to consider well tho declara
tions of tho Now York J ttdges. Judge
Choato said "Purposely omitting to
sorvo warrants until election day for I ho
purposo of preventing people from vot
ing would bo a breach of duly on tho
part of Iho Chief SuporviBor or tho
Deputy Marshal." Judgo lllatchford
strengthened tho udmnnitions of Judgo
Choale by saying "It makes no differ
ence whether this .Marshal had theso
warrants or not. It is just as much
an oflenBO for him to threaten to arrest
peoplo on election day to prevent their
voting as it would ho to keep buck a
warrant and ex con to it on that day for
that object." The system of intimida
ting voters by threats of arrest on clec
tion day has becoino a common abuso
of our election system, and it is a
wrong that overygood citizen isdirectly
interested in having corrected.
Don't Get Too Fast. An cxehungo
says: On some railroads, like the
Pennsylvania, timo is saved to express
trains by providing long limits between
the trucks, from which tho moving
locomotive scoops up its needed supply
of water without stopping. H has oc
curred to a German inventor, says tho
Leilijer, that something similar is need
ed lor inking up passengers from way
stutions without delaying the train by
u stoppugo. Tho passengers would
not like to bo scooped up like tho water
supply, or hooked off a standard liko
the mail bags, so this ingenious in
ventor has provided for them a wait
ing carriage, provided with a motor
liko a "dummy," and having a wiro
cablo wound on a drum. When tho
express train comes along a hook on
tho last car catches a ring, in which
tbo cnhlo terminates, and the wailing
car is carried forward, not with a sail
den jerk, but at a ruto graduully in
creasing to that of th train, the cable
being unwound in the process. Thon
tho motor is used to rewind tho cubic
on tho drum, until closo connection is
nuiilo botwecn the waiting car and the
troin, when tho passengers aro trans
ferred and tho waiting car is cut looso,
to bo carried back to its station by its
own motive power.
Too Thue. Tho Harrisburg Patriot
puts it into a nutshell in this way:
"Tho manogoment of tho national cam
paign was wrested from tho friends of
Genoral Hancock and given ovor to
those who opposed his nomination at
Cincinnati. Tho chairmanship of the
Democratic National Committee was
begotten In envy, brought forth in ha

Tho fditor of the Washington J'uftl
took a stroll through some of the!
departments a few days ufter tho
election, and ho remarks : j
Thodepartmeiits of the Government
havo not been beehives, exactly, dur
ing the past few da3's, tho feeling of
surprise about the result of the flee
lions nut permitting much work. Y'es
terduy did not differ materially from
tho preceding (lavs in respect to the
amount of work accomplished. Tho
clerks, however, were not nllo from
suspense, but from joy. Thu general
result being ascertained, tho pleasure
was enhanced by uoing over thu do
tails of the election returns. These
never fuilid to give sati-.luction. Per
haps, however, there is an exception,
us a great many regret that New
Jersey did not wheel in line to com
plcto'lho Solid Norlh. This, however,
is a slight objection, and docs not in
terfere with the undisguised satisfac
tion with which tho ivsiilt of the elec 1
tion is received. 1
Just now the clerks are tho happiest !
of mortals. The strain has been re-!
moved uml they aro able to look for
ward to otiotlier lease on nflleiul hie.
With the inujor portion, however, tlio
result, to a large extent, "is net surpris
ing. F.ver since the Indiana election
they havo regarded Republican suc
cess as sure, although they did not ex
pect such sweeping results. When
tho voters begin to return, then tho
departments will resound with their
songs ol triumph and shouts ol victory,

present incumbent out ol place.
About tho city yesterday everything
was very quiet all day. A few persons
colliw.t-.d i.tMt tl.o iiewsiuiiier hullo,
tins and tho extra afternoon papers
wero eagerly bought up. There wero
but low people on the streets and no
demonstrations ol any kind. During
tho evening I'river attracted a small
crowd by throwing pictures and dis
patches on the transparency, and this
gave somo life to tho section about
Fourteenth street. Tho hotel corri
dors were empty and tho opinion might
bo expressed that there was no ono in
tho city, but tho immense throngs ol
tho ovei.ing beforo would discredit tho
assertion. In tho upper part of tho
city boys built bonfires, and about
Iowa Circlo thero was a general illu
mination of tho houses. Tho nows no
doubt gives generul satisfaction here,
but there has been no outward expres
sion of it.
THE KIXl) WEXEEP.
Tho Now York ,S'un says Tilden
should havo been nominated. The
Philadelphia llecordmys it should huvo
been liayurd. And probably a good
many people think that if their favorite
had been the lemocratie nominee the
result would havo been different. Who
can tell ? And what good reason ex
ists for saying that any other man
would have been stronger than Han
cock f After bis iiominntion and until
bis defeat wo ull with singulur tinntii
mity agreed that ho wns tlio strongest
candiduto nu could have taken ; be
cause ol his record ns a soldier, his
character as a man and tho strength
which ho showed as a political thinker.
Thcro is no reason furnished by the
result of tho election to diminish I lie
high cstimuto we conceived of our can
didate. Ho is beatun, buUnot becanse
bo was not a great soldier, citizen und
stutesman. II tho defeat teaches us
anything concerning his candidacy it
teaches that wo did not want these
high qualities in our run, li, late. It tells
us, if il tells us anything personal to
tho candiduto, that wo wanted a man
from Iho penitentiary instead of a .Ma
jor General, ono fit for a juil rather
than a gentleman of honor, a political
trickster instead of a wisu and honest
statesman. Who wants to present a
canditlalo as ono vLa would havo boon
successful in Hancock's pluee, when
tho requirements of the sticccssiul can
didate arc thus indicated by Hancock's
defeat f Wo do not. Wo havo no
I'avorito wo would thus dishonor. Rut
at the next convention wo may bo dis
posed, tuiighl by our experience with
McClcllun, Seymour, Greeley and Hun
cock, to bo less eager for tho nomina
lion ol that typo of iho honest and
straightforward man ; who seems to
bo shown to be too virtuous for those
times in which falsehood and tlishon
csly flourish. Lancaster Intelligencer.
Test or Mkiiit. Kdmund Kenn
once heard a stage cat pen tor thus set
llo tho pretensions of impersonators of
Humlet : ' Yon may talk of Henderson
and Kemblo and Ihoso new men," said
the carpenter ; but give mo Bannister's
Hamlet He w us always done twenty
minutes sooner than any ono of 'em I"
Self interest is a sad warper of tho
judgment, and devises very slrungo
tests. ' Going ovor the grnvoyard of
this "Ol J Meeting" at Birmingham,
with tho clerk, Joshua Vernal asked
him who was tho greatest man lying
buriod thoro. "This is ho," answered
Mackay, pointing to a gravo; "I got
5s. a year to keep it in order." "lint
what was ha? what did ho do?" in
quired Iheincreilulous Joshua. "Why,"
suid tho clerk, "ho invented tho hole
ing of thimbles I" Vernal thereupon
pointed to the gravo of a distinguished
scholar as boing that of tho greatest
man there ; but Iho clerk pooh poohed
tho preposterous suggestion, saying:
"No such thinir; I only get a paltry
shilling fur that gravo." His tost of
greatness was a purely professional
ono, like that of the Norwich harbor,
who confidentially told the Mayor ho
did not think much of "this llritish
Association ; nino out of ten don't
shavo at all, and tho others shave
themselves."

THE 1IATTH1.
1 From the Chicago Titn.
A ionner member of tho Hoard of
Public Works gives a very interesting
account ot tho Do Golyer csso from
tho olli.'ial standpoint. This member
T tlio Board says that not only was
the Do Golyer contract awarded upon
tho request ol General Garfield, but
that this request was preferred beforo
Boss Shepperd only. General Gattielii
never sppcurcd heluro tho Board ut
nil. No brief io Iho case was ever
tiled. At tho meeting of the Board
ulterward this member of tho Board
often protested against tho Do Golyer
contract. It will bo remembered that
there was in all contracts made with
the Board of Public Works 11 clttuso
giving thu Board authority to cancel
the said contracts tin- good and sufil
cieiit cause. This member of tho Board
insisted that this contract should bo
annulled. Said he: "This pavement
is a swindle front beginning to the end.
It is absolutely worthless, ft is down
right robbery Io allow rotten conttucts
to go any further." This was very se
vere language, and iintiirally madn a
sensation in tho Bourd meeting. Thu
wholo affair was quieted, however, by
a few words from Boss Shepherd. Said
he "Gentlemen, it is idle to discuss
tho merits of this contract, or pave
ment. It was given absolutely as a
personol favor to General Garfield.
Ho is C'huirmun of the House Com
mittee on Appropriations. If that con
iMt la srinull.vl wn will itftvo umilcss
t rouble in getting new appropriations.
Somo will tail utterly. Wo cannot af
ford to ruiso our hands in this matter."
Alter this very plain tulk from tho
boss, thero was nothini; moro to bo
said. Tbo member of tbo Hoard who
related tbo ahovo incident is a resident
of this cily, and will mako affidavit to
tho ubovo if necossary.
Tins Do Golyer enso is tho blackest
thing charged against General Gar
field, for tho concurrent testimony at
Washington runs all ono way. Ho
was paid tho (5,000 for his influence
in obtaining tho contract from Boss
Shepherd. Tho laller gavo tho con
tract for tho putting down of a pavo
ment ho know to bo worthless, in or
der to niako the obtaining of bis ap
propriations for tho District an easy
mnttcr. According to tho testimony
of a member of tho Hoard, tho contract
would have been annulled had it not
been for the cortainly that it would
placo General Garfield in an antagon
istic position to tho Board and its ap
propriations. In view of this case and
tho continued employment of members
of Congress ns attorneys to procure
contracts and tho like, it may bo in
teresting to cull to mind two sections
of tho revised statutes that do not very
often seo tho light of day. Tho first
is as follows:
Section 1,781. F.vcry member of
Congress or any officer or agent of tho
Government, w ho, diroctly or indiroot
ly, takes, receives, or agrees to reecivo
any money, property or other valua
ble consideration whatever from any
person, for procuring or aiding to pro
cure any contract, ollicc, or placo from
tho Govornmont, or any department
I hereof, or from any officer of tho
United States, lor any person what
ever, or for giving any such contract,
ofiico or placo to any person whomso
ever, and every person who, directly
or indirectly, offers or agrees to givo
or gives or bestows any money, prop,
urty, or older valuable consideration
whatever for tho procuring or aiding
to procure any such contract, ofiico or
place, and every member ot Congress
who, directly or indirectly, tnkos, ro
coives, or agrees to receivu any money,
properly, or other valuable consilium
tion whutovor, after his election as
Biicb member lor his attention to, serv
ices, action, vote, or decision on any
question, mutter, cause, or proceeding
which may bo pending or may by law
or under tho constitution bo brought
beforo him in his official capacity or in
his placo OS such member of Congress,
shall bo deemed guilty of a misdo
mconor, and shall be imprisoned not
moro than two years und fined not '
moro than (10,000; and any such con
tract may, ut tho option of tho Presi
nt, bo doclarid absolutely null und
void ; mid any member of Congress or
officer convicted of a violation of this
section shall, moreover, bo disqualified
fiom holding any ollioe of honor, profit,
or trust iiiwkr tlio Government ol tho
United Slules.
Piucticully this law is a dead letter.
II it woro rigidly enlorccd Congress
would soon bo without a quorum.
Tukiiig Genoral Garfield's own stato
mcut ol tho Do Golyer caso and ho
would bo convicted under the abovo
stututcs, and when sonlonccd forever
disqualified. Governor Shepherd and
his iiourd were appointed by tho Presi
dent, confirmed by tho Senato and paid
out of tho Treasury. In every senso
of the word they woro officers ol the
United Slates Government. Beforo
them such men as General Garfield
woro forbidden to appear, suing for
favors, under tl, penalty of commit
ting a misdemeanor. The District
then ns now was the ward of the Na
tion. Tho control ol its affairs was
absolutely in tho bands of Congress.
So, Irom evon tho ablest defenso of
General Garfield's connection with tho
lotion pavement contract, he has boon
under the law a possible convict and
candidato for disfranchisement.
Tho above rigorous law was passed
in 1872, and was occasioned by tho
great Simmons scandal. Simmons
was Senator from Rhode Island.
Un became involved in a War Do
putlmcut cootrai t, and was disgrace),
although he was never censuieJ by
the Senate. Justice Field, in second
Wallace, in the caso of the Tool Com
pany vs. Xori is, gives an interesting
sketch ol'tho Simmons Scandal, that
originally caused the rigid enactment
iiiven above. At the outset ol the
decision tho Supreme Court luyfl down
thu following principle: "An agree
ment lor ion, pel, saiioii for procuring

lui'iiish its supplies is auainsl public

been Senator be had been mado a sub
ject ot Inn, ,lrc, Is ol similar applications,
und bail invariably declined them all.
llo thought it discreditable for any
Senator to intormeddlu with tho busi
ness of the departments. Said Norris:
"You will certainly not decline to go
wilh mo and inlrodiico mo to the Sec
retary, anil slato that the Providence
Tool ('ompuny is a responsible corpor
ation V Mr. Anthony replied, "I'll
give you a note." .Mr. Morris then
urged "1 do not wunt a note ; 1 want
the weight of your presence with mo ;
I wool tho inflnenco of u Senator."
Mr. Anthony : "Then go to Simmons."
Norris did go to Simmons, and through
his aid did obtain tho contract. Nor
ris warmly thanked tho Secretary ol
War, w ho said to him in bis kindest
lashion, as Norris went out, thul be
hoped "ho would mako a uood deal of
money out of it." Norris claimed $7o,
OUO as his sbaro of tho contract, or the
difference between the regulur con
tract price, (17 per musket, and the
(U'O obtuined from tho Government.
This was rcfusod, tho Company hold,
ing tbnl Norris was to be liberally
compel, stiteil, but not to that extent.
The court below gavo a partial judg
ment in Norris' favor.
Justice Field, in reversimr the do 1
ci.-ion 01 the conn beiow, thero being
no dissent upon tbo part ol other 1
members of tho curt, said: "The!

that this, agreement for contingent

In speaking of anulooii. cases, the
court mated irenorully "ihut all aureo

in pi-nettl ing a pardon for a man con
victed in tho United Slates Courts.
i ins uct'ureii in imi,.', anil made a
(real scandal. Afterward a law was
passed iorhidding any similar impro
priety, This act is found in section
1,782 of tho I'ovised Statutes, which
says :
No .Senator, Representative, or Del
egate, ufter his election and during his
continunnco id ofiico und no head ot a

himself or another, in relation to any
proceedings, contract, claim, contro

United Slates is a party or diroctly
or indirectly interested, befuro any

Tho stututcs given ahovo are almost
constantly violated by Congressmen of
