WEDNESDAY, APRIL 23, 1890. EDITOR DANA MALICIOUS. Mr. Cleveland Denounces the “Sun’s” Head for His Unwarranted Attacks. New Yor:. April 17.—in view of the issues lying the presiden- tial nomination of 1892, the question as to wh >x-president Cleveland is undergoing special medical treat- rming increase of obesi- din the Sun of yester- assumed national propor- —_—_—_—_—~—l—Iara REPUBLIOAN QUARBEL. It is an old but trite saying that when rogues fall out honest men get their dues. This is particularly ap- plicable to the present quarrel going on in the republican ranks. M. 8. Quay, chairman of the Republican Nations! Committee and United States Senator from Pennsylvania, is having trouble with some of his party leaders and the boys are peaching on him at a lively rate. The New York Evening Post charges, on information from “prominent men of both parties in Pennsylva- nia,” that he engaged in a conspiracy vy which, through a confederate, the cashier of the State Treasury, $260, 000 was directly stolen from the state—a sum which was afterwards made good by Cameron end other wealthy ‘fepublicans to save the eredit’ of the party. It is further charged that when serving as state treasurer after this Quay abstracted $400,000 from the treasury ¢2d ap- plied it to his personal speculation in bonds of the North Chicago Rail- road company, which proved profit- able enough to enable him to return the stolen money. Other and seri- ous charges are made against the great political boss, who through his tool Dudley, purchased and stole together one state thereby electing Harrison president. Quay is repre- sented throughout as a drunkard, a gambler and a thief. This quarrel is brought about by a division of the spoils by the Patronage Bossand has gone beyond the scope of a compromise. Mr. Quay is placed in a position where he cannot ignore these charges, even if he was dis- posed todoso. They are from tco high arthiority and the evidence tco strong. The United States Senate will be forced, in defense of its fair name to order an_ investigation, however unpleasant a task to a ma- jority of the republican senators, provided that Mr. Quay does not himself relieve them of this em- barrassment by asking that a thor- ough and systematic investigation be made. This is the only course left for him to pursue, except that it is in order for him to bring suit im- mediately against the Evening Post ina fabulous sum for slander. If these charges are proven true, Mr. Quay’s republican colleagues cannot whitewash him for the civil suit against the newspaper will make public all the evidence. They will have to expel him from the senate. What a predicament for this admin-; istration. | Col. Morgan, in an open letter! to the public denies that Col.

In fact} we do not believe a delegation of representative democrats could be picked at random in the county but would give him ahearty and unqual- ified support. But in a matter where! so much is at stake the selection of a delegation should not be left to mere chance. The friends of Judge} the states.

It would not be amiss to instruct your township’ delegate to send a delegation to the state convention that would use every honorable means to secure his | nomination for Supreme Judge. I An interview on this subject with Mr. Cleveland, published in the World of to-day, pointedly denies the statement contained in the New York Sun. From this interview the following is taken: “T have not,” said Mr. Cleveland, “geen the article you refer to, and if it appears nowhere else but in the Sun there is not the least chance of my seeing it. Of course the entire thing is a lie without the least pre- text to excuse it. I judge from what you say that the venerable editor of the Sun supposes that he has at last hit upon a subject that can be used to annoy me. In this he is mistaken. He must be his own judge of social decencies and proprieties. Iam not sure that he should at his time of life, and in his apparently peculiar mental condition, be molested in his amusement.” “I do not care,” Mr. Cleveland added, “How much I am criticised for my public acts. That is perfect- ly legitimate and I recognize the right of every man to differ on pub- lic questions. There is a line, how- ever, it seems to me, where criticism and abuse should stop. The man who invades the privacy of a family and indulges in coarse and wanton attacks on private citizens is no bet- ter than a highwayman. He places himself on a level with the black- gusrd, and his vulgarities can have ght with decent people.” no w Regarding the frequent personal attacks upon himself in the columns of the Sun, Mr. Cleveland said that while lhe never saw them, every time one appeared a dozen cranks, more or less, would write him about it. “Whenever I receive these cranks’ letters,” said Mr. Cleveland, “I know that the seline old liar and thief Dana has been at work again. That is the only way I keep track of his mental ravings. The object I suppose is to annoy me and my friends.” “There is only one thing,” }fr. Cleveland went on, and a tender ex- pression lit up his face, “that I care anything about in these attacks— they are not confined to myself. It seems that the seline Dana does not confine his warfare to men. Wo- men are not free from his dastardly assaults. Mrs. Cleveland has not escaped. It is bad enough for Dana to print his lying statements regard- ing myself, but it is infinitely more cowardly and dastardly for him to include, as he has done, my wife in his attacks. Nothing could be more contemptible or so far removed from all instincts of manhood. Mr. Cleveland spoke with cousid- erable feeling in referring to the un- warranted use that had been made of Mrs. Cleveland’s name by the malig- n tt editor. “There is no language,” “strong enough to charac- e the conduct of such a man. If Dana was not in his dotage, with one foot in the grave, his seline ravings would attract more attention. The public is supposed to look with some leniency upon a man who has paresis. That is all that saves Dana from being held toa strict account for his atrocious conduct.” The World states that the ex- president's appearance did not bear out the statement that he was in- creasing in flesh; that if anything he weighed less than when he left the t a | White house and his face has a very healthy appearance. As was known beforehand it would do, the U. S. supreme court has rendered a decision sustaining the federal courts of Calfornia in ordering the release of Nagle for the murder of Judge Terry. It is a dan- Gerous precedent aud adds one which should belong exclusively to Justice Fuller had the courage to dissent from the finding and their reasons therefor are ably set forth by the former. “That tired feeling” is entirely | overcome by Hood’s Sarsa: which gives a feeli and strength tothe whole system. of bouyancy | i } Tab; ;More encroachment upon the rights lan sere property in towaship 42 | ' The Union Labor Conference.

County secretary instructed to send proceedings to all the Butler papers and to publish the same in the Emancipator of J.one Oak. Adjourn- ed to meet at call of chairman. R. A. Turner. W.H.

Sherman, a detective at this place, who formerly lived in Ohio, was arrested here to-day on a war- rant sworn out by lawyer W. E. Grayston, charging him with the murder of W. C. Wrightsman at Kansas City three years ago last November. At that time Wrights- man disappeared and, having con- siderable money with him, it was believed he was foully dealt with, and the investigation that has been prosecuted since then has resulted in the arrest of Sherman, who was then living in Kansas City. Wrights- man lived at Schell City, Mo., and was a brother in-law of J. C. Taylor of that place. Sherman married the sister of Taylor. He will be taken to Kansas City to-morrow. The prisoner denies knowing anything about the murder of Wrightsman, and says his arrest is due to the machinations of enemies, who will be exposed in due time. Democratic Conyentions.
