' I have your letter of the 19th inst, I cannot consider with favor your Bug. geation of a cliangd 'in the national ticket. The action of the convention cannot now bo considered. It n.ust atand, and I think . it ought to stand. I do not agree with you "in respect to the proUlile result; I think the proU bilities are favorable to the success of our ticket. Tbe "Cleveland scandal will not have weight with the people and ought not to have weight. It U enworthy the national aontest. .Three tiroes Governor Cleveland stood the test of a popular canvass, once for the office of mayor of lis, own city, and each time be lias're ceired the iudorso meat of his own neighbor! by a ots brgtly above his party strength, What ever there may have bee a existing be. fore that, it is not iunt for him or the people now to revive it. , The publio welfare requires that he be judged ' by his capability add fitness for the dis charge of responsible. an4 ., jtpportanc publio duties and not by an old and .exploded scandal ' .'Very Respectfully yours, eta T. A. HENDRICKS. Ktidr (or Trial. The charges made against Blaine by the Indianapolis Sentinel were pub lished by, at least, two'papers in 1870 eight years ago. Considering this fact it is difficult to understand why Ulaine should desire that suit should be brought immediately.

Railroid. 7 The "vindication." as it is called, has aueard in the Republican papers of this State but yet not one has had the candor to give tho Mulli gan letters which appeared a month later. Sir. Blaine's speech . is to be found on page 2723 of the Congression al Record for 187C: "In common with hundreds of oth er people in New England and other parts of the country, I bought some of these bonds not a very large amount paying for them at precisely the same rate that others paid. I never heard and do not believe that the Little Rock Company, which I know is controlled by highly honorable men, ever parted with a bond to any person except at the regular market price fixed for their sale." Mr. Blaine then asserts that he lost 120,000 in this venture, and paid mon ey out of his own pocket to sustain the L R, Railroad. He then continues: "My whole, connection with this road has been as open as the day.' ' If there had been anything to conceal altout it I ahould never have touched it Wher ever concealment is desirable, avoid ance is advisable, and I do not know any better test to apply to the honor and fairness of a business transaction. . "In the seven intervening years since the Little Rock and Fort Smith bonds were placed on the mar ket, I know few investments that have not been more affected by the legisla tion of Congress. But this case does not require to be shielded by any other comparisons or citations. For I repeat that the Little Rock road derived all it had from vtha State of Arkansas and not from Congress,' It was in the discretion of Congress to give or with- iVflm thn Kfjiav hut. if. was unlal IU uu uiovivvivii V UU UlUWC lV or withhold from the Little Rock Rail road companv. '.V- Third, that instead of receiving bonds of th Little Rock and Fort Smith rRpad as a gratuity, I never had one except at the regular market price, and that in stead of aiaking a large fortune out of company I have incurred a severe pe cuniary lots from my investment in its securities, which I still retain. And out of such affairs as this grows the popular gossip of large fortunes amassed in Congress. The editor of the Chicago Staata Zeitung says that 95 per cent of the Germans of Illinois will vote the Dem ocratic ticket That paper and iis edi tor have heretofore leen strongly - Re publican. '"'"I Notice to Farmers. ' The Eogeoa City Mills have been thor oughly overhauled sod the capacity ff or re ceiving sad storing grain inoreated. (Vhet cleaners of the lateat and moat improved patterns have been added. The Mill Com pany is now prepared to storo wheat on the following terms: Oregon White and White Velvet wheat will be stored free f charm; ill other kinds will be charged 1) cents per bushel for storage, and 1 oenU per bushel for sacking and loading the same ou board cam or wagono. . ' We hare a large amount of wheat bag on hand which we will diapoa of to suit pur chasers. - ' ' P. E. ft Co. July 30, IfW-i. , 1 George F. Edmunds was virulently assaulted by many Republican jour rals in the months before the Chicago conventions. He remained aitent until an admirer of Blaine ac cused Senator Edmunds of participa tion in a railroad scheme exactly alike Blaine's L, R. R. affair. Of course the admirer could see nothing wrong in that, bat we incline to think that Mr. Edmunds did; as he immediately, with out waiting even one day, published a complete refutation, and in a bitterly Mtirical way, asked that his name he t not mentioned with that of J&s. G. Blaine, Probably he was of the opin ion of the Portland Oregonian of April 24, 1884, that "tho recollection made by publication of the "Mulligan letter" will not down." During the la'.e civil war, the three Cleveland boys held a consultation, and two joined the army, while Grover Cleveland iwaa to remain home and care for the roether and sister. Un fortunately Grover was drafted, but at onee secured a substitute. When the Legislature was reimbursing those who had paid sutatilutes, Mr. Cleve land refuwd to petition the Legisla te for his money, or le reimbursed inany manner. Lika Mr. Cleveland, .;'' Mi-Maine was drafted and furnished ' a substitute While the former re fused to be' reimbursed, the latter re otised from the State of Maine the sum which he had paid for a aubsti- ' tat ft.
