miiues:
lRut we have a right to enlter a pro
est against tile unljust charges made
)y Major Woodwardl againsat the mnem
mers of' the Congressional Noamit inag
;onvenation of 1876. We were a mom
ier of' said conivenition, and we deny11
hat (Colone(l Evn Is owed his nomini
ion ini 187t3. to "'the gamlinig pro0cess

ike ai q1urter' of beef at a shooting
natchh, 'or2 that "hle owes his nomina
ion iln tile first instanc(e to luck," as
s charged by Major Woodward in his
>arid.
To show the injustice of these
shlarges made(1 by Majoir Woodwar'd,
wve have onlhy to give thle followinlg
utatement of the facts in reference to
the action of.the Nominatinlg Conven
tion of 1876. The convention met In
Columbia, and was com1 )osed of (de10
gates fVom all of the eliht counltles int
the Congressional DistrIct and was
p resided over' by Col. J. II. lion, og
1'aIr field. The total vote of tile ell
u'ention was 34, and 18 was r'equired
rot' a majority. TIhe names of Colonel
Evins, Idajor Woodwvard anid Geneurali
Kennedy were before the conlventionl
and tihe nomination wais made by bal
lot. We do not remember the exact
nutmber of' ballots taken, but give the
reAnit of the fh'kt ballot and all subse
quent ballots in which there was anty
change In results. On the fir'st ballot
Evis received 14, Woodward 15, and
Kennedy 6. Several ballotse were' takenl
without, aniy -cineiln result. Oni
th etblot, In which there was any
cbange, 1Evins received 14, Woodward
I 111(an Kenniedv 0. The next ballo
0leh there was any haV0 EvI4
",.1ved. ',Woodward 18, aul Kou
. 1ma'the vote stood nh
it bain a which. all threo.t the
4,40 *,ore before the conventlil.
this J1nctur0 of affairs, II ord r
gut an end to what seemed ditinS,
; awtinterminablo balloting,.t was
proposed to put 'the narnes of Evius
Woodward and Kennedy in a hat, and
draw out the names of two and run
them against each other, and (rop the
lowest and run the highest against the
name remaining In the 'hat. This
proposition did not come From Evind'
tiends. On the contrary, they oppos
ed it, and we as the representative of
IRinIs' friends, made two or more
speches against It. Notwithstandin
.he persistent opposItion of Evil)
filends, the prol>osition was adopted
and the proposed plan was carried out.
The nantes of' Woodward and Kenne
dy were the two names drawn out of
tfie hat, and thoy wore run agaiuist
each other, Woodward receiving 18
votes and Kennedy 10 votes. Conse
quently, RennedyI was dropped in ac
cordance vith the plan agreed upon
iand Wood ward was run against Evins
whoso name remained in the hat, and
Evins received 19 votes and Wood ward
15 votes, resulting in the election of
Evins. Thisiss a plaiti statement of tlie
fat; of thecase, the correctness of
whichwill be vouched for, doubtless
by all the delegates to said convention.
It will thus e seen that Evins re
ceived the highest vote oi the last bal
lot in which all three were voted for,
and when the balloting, under the
plan agreed upon, was reduced to sin
glo contests and Woodward beat Kel
liedy, that EvIins then beat Woodward i
four votes in a single-handed race in a t
Pair ballot. We call not, therefore,
sec that Major Woodward has any just I
groulind to complain, as Colonel hCvils
received the nominatiot on a fair bal
lot, and not by any "gaibling pro
cess," or by "luck," as charge by
Major Woodward, but because he wa's
the choice of a majority of the conven
tion and received more votes than Maj.
Woodward.
Iajor Woodward also does Colonel
Ev8s great injustice when lie inti
mates that lie assumes "to demand a
'IPd Ten at the hands of the people
of tle 'Fourth Congressional District."
Colonel Evins never assumed any
siclh attitude. Onl th1e contrary, lie
ha11s alhays acted upon tile prin;ciplo
that "the oflice should seek the man
illstead of the 1111111 seeking (lie office."
le did not seek the office in 1876, but
was put. forward by his friends againt. I
his inclination, and Since his election
to Congress lie has wori his honors
with his characteristic modesty.

HAYES Is REFORMING ANYTHING?
~fy advice to everybody is to let the
ndian business alone. That's one
oem I have if Hancock should get in.
b>elieve he would reorganize that
mystem and put it under the War' De
artment, where it belongs. But, I
'epeat any body who touches it as It is
tow will get: smeared. Hlonest or dis
ionest, it's all one. Why In the name
>f common sense should t'he intion dis
>urse hundreds of thousands of dol
ar's every year to a lot of greasy loaf
wrs just because they have red 'skins?
I'he government don't give Itself anly
>eculiar uneasiness about the tramph
:bat walks the hlighway, stealing andc
jogging., When it supIpor'ts himi, it is
is a crimmal, only temporarily as a
vaarant. Vagrancy is salarleil-if it
ynly occurs on an Indian reservation.
Behooleatt? Nicolott? Do you believe
alther' of them ever visited Itasca
bake? I don't know; never' have
nade up my mind. I follow thle rule
that it is impossible for a man to be
|ong associated with the aboriinos
and remain honest omr trunthful. T hese
mnte may suffer' by my too sweeping
elasshi'lation, but the'doubt remains
w ih me juist ihe same."
