A Par! lobe Pitied.
The Republican party has a jewel of
a leader, but nevertheless is heartily
ashamed of him. It lias been accustomed
te be led by men with quite as little scru
ple about the means through which they
sought their ends, but they have been
.iinart enough te l.xep their tracks de
cently covered. Mr. Jewell has either
very bad Inch or very peer fJ:ill, and he
ceme.i te grief se often that it is impo?s.-J-b'enet
te:-:e; that he is sadly troubled
with '.t upid ity. There was .something
of ill hid: in hi; misfortune with these
Flerida telegrams, but it was nothing
but siliines-i te see!: te crawl out of the
dilemma wilh a charge that the Demo
crats v. eie :- king te colonize a Demo
cratic state, lint Mr. Jewell's misad
venture with Ti'i'Hi is the most humili
ating one he has yet had. Te b'j se easily
gulled and te put himself se completely
in the power of his enemies, makes their
chairman a very suitable object of the
aunt hem:: . of his political friends. Te
the world in general Mr. Jewell exhibits
hims'if in a still wer-'":i-ip::cl in treating
with the publisher of what he claims te
In; a forged letter of his presidential can
didate and by cmaging in a written letter
te Mr. Garfield that a consideration
.should be given ler it, declaring that it
was a grea' service- r."i:dcrel. Certainly
if Mr. Jewell relied upon Mr. Garfield's
declaration that the letter was se gross a
forgery thai no one could mistake it for
his writing, he would net have been se
eager te ;.',. je,. ;. confesiien of doubt
from lis publisher.. Ner, if he had been
an honorable man. would he have enter
ed into an arra;i!'-..:ient of any kind with
the criminal'!, whom Mr. Garfield in
,strii''t d him te hunt down and punish.
The I'-'ler of Mr. Jewell shows with
ipiile sufii.'h'iit distinct iies-s, just what
tin; b'irgaiii was; aul if there was any
uncertainly about it, it would be re
moved by the statement:; coming from
Hart the publisher, Jewell the contract
or and I'iltenheelcr the beneficiary;
from which it is clear that. Diltonhec.ler
was te be i warded adequately fort hi-.
" gieat Ki rvice'' credited te him, after
Mr. Garfield should take the presidential
office ::ud In-in position te ilislribule its

In this latter rc.spccf he gees liglif along

of brothers.
We de net Knew who new feels any

write tha! letter. Hardly any Itepub
lican can have se sublime a faith in a
candidate whom (heir own chairman se
distrusts, even if Jewell is a feel. Ami
they de no! cl, much comfort from the
evidence, which se farclcarlj proves that
the man charged with the forgery eflhe
hitler is net guilty. A crowd of
witnesses swear lhal if is net

declares ii te be Mr. Garfield's,
notwithstanding his declaration that no
one could honestly se assert who was fa
miliar with it. Mr. Hewitt's honesty no
one will .successfully challenge and he
alone is .siilheicnl te nut Mr. Garfield te
confusion in his bread assertion. And,
admitting this letter te be a forgery,

that any lespeclable man who is net

voluntarily with all these charges of ly-'

soldiers that fell en the bleed-stained hills
around Gettysburg rise from the graves
where they new await the finanl roll call,
hew many of them, reader, de you think
would vote for General Hancock ? iYieie
Era.
All of them, probably. Gen. Meade,
who commanded the Union forces dur
ing that battle, and who chose Hancock
te select the battlefield, was an ardent
admirer of Hancock and thanked him
in his own name and the name of the
country for the great services he render
ed at Gettysburg ; General Butterfield,
Meade's chief of staff and heretofore a
Republican, is for Hancock : General
Sickles, who fought en Hancock's left
and who lest a leg at Gettysburg, is for
Hancock : Gen. Slecurn, who fought en
the extreme right and hurled back Ew
ell's rebel horde, is for Hancock, and se
are almost every one of the great living
officers and brave men who fought en
that bloody field. Can it be doubted hew
the heroic dead, would vote could they
rise from their graves ?
Tin-: time for argument is past that
for action has come. Let our friends be
possessed of a calm confidence. Let them
be vigilant and active. All manner of
devices of fraud will be, no deunt, at

en every ballet until it is counted. Offer
no ballet thai you knew te be illegal and

which every citizen entitled te si vote

That unfortunate Garfield, who swore se
earnestly that his fee in the DtGelyer
pavement business was net paid him
with any view te secure an appropriation

of A.lJ.K:rtland,en3 of the DeGelyer par
ties, that Garfield was retained just for
this purpose and because he was chair
man of the appropriations committee.

Philadelphia Times.
Xe presidential candidate' ever deserved
mere from any state than General Hancock
merits from Pennsylvania. He is a son of
Pennsylvania ; he has honored her by his
heroism" iu defense of the Union ; he made
his name and his native commonwealth
illustrious en the field of Gettysburg: he
has been gallant in war and noble in peace,
and his public and private life has chal
lenged the admiration of friends and the
respects of fees.
As here and patriot he has called out the
grateful acknowledgment of the loyal

THE 5. A. K.
"Thes It"Veikcr" Again at Werk.
About two months age tiie I.NTEM.r.EX
cui: published a statement te the effect
that the inspector of the order of the
O. A. R. in this state had paid a visit te
Geerge II. Themas pest 84, this city, and
referring te the manifest desire of some
of the " best ' workers " te pervert it te
partisan purposes, cautioned them against
attempting te carry out such intention as
hostile te the spirit of the organization ;
and added that if it came down te a strict
test of preference, Gen. Hancock would
be found te have a majority of the xn-sts
iu his favor.-
These warnings of the state inspector
seemed for a time te have a restraining in
fluence en the Hadical oflicc-helding cle
ment of Pest 84, and they resolved te
taboo politics iu their meetings. It ap
pears, however, that they have again
adopted their old tactics. The Ac iff Era
of Saturday says in its local depaitmcnt :
" Captain James Cress reached Lauc.istcr
from Washington, a couple of davs age.
and at the regular meeting of Geerge II.
Themas pest, Xe. 81, G. A. Ii., held en
Friday eveuing. addressed his comrades
briefly, urging them te earnestness "m the
light, and giving them words of great
cheer and encouragement. Captain Cress
leeks hale, as usual, and is very sanguine
of the success of the liepublicaii party en
Tuesday. In this respect he is like Re
publicans everywhere, in this contest ;
sanguine, for geed and substantial rea
sons." The " geed and substantial reasons"
which induce Captain Cress te attempt te
prostitute the machinery of a non-partisan
organisatien te the exigencies of the Re
publican party, are the leaves and fishes
of which he has se long been a recipient,
and in this respect he differs net a whit
from the "best workers" in this city. Ii
it te be wondered at, therefore, that many
of the bravest and most reputable soldiers
of this city held themselves! aloof from an
organization that is used as a mere political
machine.
