It is diflentt to act ut the truth of the matter, for Democrats hy a positlon to know the enuse und extent of the defection are naturally: very close- wiouthed. ut enough is known from the whispered imutteringy that Hendricks: and MeDonald are in oBposition to Chairman English because the Intter refuses to come down a8 handsomely for the Ovtober election ne they belleya he. ought to, English clulins that It fg tho duty of Landers and the state ticket, including MeDonald, who,ls candidate for re@ection to the United States Senate, to carry Jndiaua in Getober, and when this {s dune he will see that it goes for Hancock and hlinself in Nu- yombors ‘Lo such au extent has he carried his stubbornness that he withholds $7,500 of tho $10,000 whicli- te guve tho Committes early fs tho campaign, desiring that it be used. in November Instead of October, Mendricks and his fricnds claim that every effort ahould, be made to carry the State In October, for if Jost then it will be lost In November, HOWEVER MUCTL TRULIE there may bo-tn all this, it 1 cortaln that these party managers aronot only estranged, but badly rattles over the outlook, A prominent Greenbacker ,semarked to-day that If the election were held to-morrow Porter would be elected by 10,000 majority.

Congressman De La Matyr corroborates this view of the situation, sulin that fn 1st the Nationals were friendly to the Dimneraey, aldting them very uiaterkall bat that. fn Yithey are y hostile to thom, preferring to see to Landers, ‘This change in the attitude of lls party toward the Demoe- racy, he thinks, will resuit beneficially to the Republicans, and lead to the election of Por fer by a reand majority.

The money expended in getting the material for this work was not taken from the Democratic campaign fund, but chietly trom the contingent fund of the United States Senute appropriated by Con- gress originully for the legitimate expenses ofthe Senate, The refusal of the Committee toseltcopics of the document was not be- cnuse of its yatue, Intrinsic or otherwise, but simply because Its contents were not such as the Connnittee would wish to have elreuluted in the more enlightened eommunt- tles, it having been prepared for use in the Wilds of West Virginia and the back parts of Indiana, where the newspapers find little favor and peuple are not qualified to know te difference between o He and the truth, even in respect tu the commonest. facts ot public affairs, This remarkable document ears Internal evidence that it emanated from the pen of Senator Henry G, Davis, of West Virginia, ‘There ia not another man In elther House of Ciinaress who would: be willing to be re- sponsible for a statement: Hko: that." The ns- sumption that unexplained «discrepancies axist, thre bs tion that flelitious. warrants ‘were drawn which.have sinee been destroyed, are fabrien- Hous, of the brain of Senator Davis out of nothing, A Kepublican Senate, with characteristic Iberality, yoted to raise a committee to. give the honorable Senator a chance to go inte the search, Willing if there wis buy thy wrong thot ft should be exposed, but ‘voutident not only thatnone existed, but that the honurable ralder would never know it if he should by aceldent develop one. ‘Throughout tho sne- ceeding two years Davis and his investi; ton furnished nwusement for Treasury ex- herts and for Senators of both parties, When at Inst it came to a close and the Senator made his report, and a speech in explanation of it, he was told most emphitieally by several Senators, anong whom were two members of his In- vestizating Committee, that he had dis covered no single fact that was not fully known before, but that every facet which he assumed hud been fully explained to the satisfuction of every one who had the wit to comprehend the explanations, IT WAS ASSERTED IN OPEN SENATE, and reiterated, that not one particle of evi- dence had been sudduced to warrant a sus- pieion even of dishonesty or fraud, and to these — assertlons =the honerable Sen- ator ventured no denial, ‘These facts make the preparation and issuance of 18 document in question, especially the secret manner of Its elrenlas lation, contemptible, A more stupid or more vasily-refuted set of Hes were never before presented within the same space. ‘The, te and headines are as follows: Troneury Bookkeeping—A- Dicerepancy of Over $300,000,000 In the ‘Treasury yecounts, and the Grout Ledgers Mutilated to Cover It.

HOW THF STATE STANDS, Spectal Dispatch te The Chicagu Tribune, Wasiinatoy, D, C., Sept. 314—A Repub- Ucan who fs an experienced political ob- server hog just returned from un extended telp phrawgh Virginia, und gives Lt os his alances were force; the insinun-- opinton that the Republicans have no pros- beet ofearrying the Electoral vote of that State, or any Electoral vote in that State by aplurality, This gentleman assigns the fol- lowIng reasons for his conclusion: The Re- publicans are without organization, and have been for three years. ‘The negroes, who eon- stitute the bulk of the party, lave not voted and have not pall their poll taxes, Ono reason why they have declined to do vither is that they have known that thelr votes would nat be counted, ng the elve- tlon mnachinery was all in. the hands of the Democrats, who have chosen the instrimens tallty of the ballut-box to destroy the Repube lican vote, The Republican party is anime portant factor only In connection with Gen, Mahone and his Readjuster independents, and a large percentage of the Republicans Is MUCH MORE LIKELY, to he the tall to Mahone’s kite than to bean Independent aggressive factor. The Nation- al Democratic Committee is not Nkely to take such sides with the Hourbon Democracy as ean deceive Mahone to tho. sup port of the Republican Electoral ticket. The colored Republican poll taxes are not pald, and itecoes not seem probable that any money will be forthcoming from Republican sources to assist them in paying them. If the conclusions of this gentleman are core tert, therefure, the Republicans shanid not relax their energies In Northern States by placing. que rellanee, 13 one or two members of the National Republican Committee are said to do, in the possiblity that the Repub- Neans can carry Virginia.
