HAHDB OFF I
Mr. Cleveland needs to be reminded that
the people of New York aro entirely copablo
of self-government.
Their determined revolt against the unfit
nomination of tho County Domooraoyhi
machino is an assertion of thoir ability to
tako care of themselves.
When Cleveland was Governor he had a
ohanco to mako Fellows District-Attorney.
Tho Colonel was then " in tho lino of promo
tion." The Governor "Jumpod" Fellows,
first with Feceiuk and then with Olnet.
Tho people are of tho Governor's opinion
rather than tho President's.
Lot President Cleveland take his hand
out of this local fight. Tho fingers of inter
meddlers aro llablo to get burned.
"OH THE EOT."
Ananias says: "Wo'vo got them on tho
run."
But the interesting question is, who is " on
the run," and whoro aro thoy running ? Now
that Tweed is dead, Fellows and Ananias
certainly cannot "run" to him for further
financial favors.
Fellows, of course, can still "run" to
oourts in tho rfllo of a "welcher." But
Ananias doubtless refers to tho running
away of its disgusted readers and to tho
general rout of tho forces of corruption be
hind Fellows.
Yes I there are a good many people " on
the run." Tho honest and indignant Demo,
cratlo masses are relentlessly pursuing tho
Boodlers and thoir cronies, and driving thorn
helter-skelter into thoir holos.
Oh, yes I " wo'vo got them on the run."
A FUBBLIBD POLICY.
Tho frantio efforts of the blunderers and
plunderers to identify the National Democ
racy with tho campaign of the Boodlers'
candidate for District-Attorney is purblind
folly.
As far as the Presidential prospects are
concerned, tho immediate withdrawal of
Fellows is the only measure that savors of
statesmanship.
Tho keynote of a successful Presidential
campaign cannot be struok by Boodlers and
usurping Bosses.
MB. HEWTiTB FBEVIOUSHESB.
Well, what does Mayor Hewitt now think
of his candidate?
Is a man who gamblos with his creditors'
money and then repudiates his losses the
model for a reformer?
Is tho man who " struok " Boss Tweed for
monoy undor tho circumstances elsewhero
related a propor porson to olect District-Attorney
for tho prosecution of Boodlers?
On the whole, docs not Mayor Hewitt
wish that ho had visited even a " brooding
Buddha" and asked advico boforo -writing
his letter in favor of gagging tho pross and
electing Fellows District-Attorney ?
AN OBJECT LESSON.
For the first time in Its history the Metro
polltan Museum opens next week n inagnifl.
cont exhibition of paintings exclusively its
own. It is enabled to do this by tho Bplondld
bequest of tho lato Miss Oathebinb Wolfe.
Thousands will throng tho galleries for
months to come to gaze upon these art treas
ures. Tho good thoy will do nono can meas
ure, but all must recognize. The ennobling
and healthful influence of true art is as un
deniably a factor of social welfare as is the
steam engine
To tho millionaire this exhibition will bo n
striking object lesson. It will afford him an
inspiring examplo of tho duties and high op.
portunitios of wealth. It will give him
"pointers" as to tho best investment ho
could possibly make.
What dividends can millions draw com
parable to tho gratitude of tho people ?
Boss Tweed, too, was a " good fellow."
As tbe Sun says and it doubtlebs know ho
was " true to his fricuds " and " liberal
with his resources." But though Col. Fel
lows helped to re-oloct him Bonator, tho
liberal Boss preceded SuAnr to jail.
Tho Tammany resolutions declared that
"political discussions should not descend to
personal abuse." What a rebuko this would
have been to foul-mouthed Dana if he had
not a cheek like a sower-pipe.
"Draw me out of that crowd," says ex.
Mayor Fbanelin Edson to the ratiflers of
Fellows's nomination. A good many othor
honost Democrats will wish to-day that thoy
had followed his example.
" I don't claim to have been an important
factor in tho prosecution of the Boodlers,"
says Col. Fellows. This is answering on
accusation never brought ngainst him.
nENitr Geobok is right. "Tho doom ot
bosslsm has been Bounded." By substituting
Nicoll for Post the Labor party can help to
execute tho decree of doom.
Fellows asks: "Who Is my oppouont?"
His opponent is his record, and his moM
dangerous enemies his pretended friends.
Tho blunderers and the plunderers are in
tho last ditch.
There is yet time for tho Flopper to flop
back.

DOW FELLOWS WAS USEFUL TO TWEED.
Oppertnnltlre for rutting tho " Doas " In at
Mood to Itoapond to I1U Appeal.
(reft r-ioy Jfw fork Tim...
It Is scarcely necessary to explain that these
letters make an end of Mr. Fellows unlets he can
satlafactortly explain wby he appeared as a bor
rower of money from Tweed at that rnott unfor
tunate moment. We wsrn Mr. Fellows that no
common or Incomplete explanation will have a
fcather'a weight with the public Only a state
ment as clear and convincing aa tbe letters them
selves will free htm from tho suspicion of having
taken money from Tweed at a time when to re
ceive It from such a ionrctf put a stain upon hli
honor not lets deep and Indellulo than that which
forgery leaves. But how la It poislble tor CoL
Fellows to make any auch explanation ?
As tbe case stands, It l proved that he aaked and
received $323 from Tweed on Feb. 1, 1678. What
were his relations to Tweed and to the city at that
timet Ho had been Asalitant District-Attorney
nnder Qarvln during the year 1819, when the
Indictments against Tweed wore prepared. In the
very naturo of things Fallows muni liuve been
familiar with tho steps taken from day to day In
preparing tho Indictments. Ho was a public proso
cutor, paid by the clty.und Tweed was to bo proae
cuted for tho colossal plundering which ho had or
ganized and carried out. On Deo. SI, 1HI2, Oarrln
In whom tho publio had no conrlilcnce, was
succeeded la the ofTlco of District-Attorney
by Ilcnjamln K. rhelpa, Mr.
l'holpa shared the public dlatruit of tho District
Attorney's omco as managed by his predecessor,
and he did not retain tho valuable services of John
It. Fellows as an assistant. In the Tweed trial,
which began on Jan. T, therefore, Fellows did not
officially appear. The case waa given to the Jury
on Jan. so, and on Jan. si the Jury reported Its In
ability to agree. The disagreement was a publio
scandal, and nobody donbts that the Jury was tam
pered with by Tweed's agents, the lax Jury laws of
that time furnishing but Indifferent safeguards
against auch attempts, It waa on Feb. 1, the day
following tho disagreement of the Jury, that Fel
lows wrote to Tweed In these words: "I'm sorry
to have to avail myself of yonr generous offer
of yesterday." This "yesterday" was Jan. 81,
the day of the disagreement- Theso dates are ex
tremely significant. Why did William M. Tweed,
on tho day when his escape from conviction for
Infamous crimes had naturally put him in a moat
generous frame of mind towards all who had con
tributed to that result, mako a "generous offer"
to John It. Fellows, a man who only a month be
fore had been employed by the city of New York
to get him and hla criminal associates Into State
prison It possible T And why shonld Col. Fellows
have permitted this odious and virtually
convicted felon to approach him with "gen
erous offers," much lets to make those offers
good? An bonorable attorney who had taken
part In the preparations for Tweed's proaecutlon
would no moro have aaked and accepted money
from him at such a time than he would have en
tered a den of rattlesnakes. The humiliation of
protested notes and the discomfort ot ejectment
for non-payment of rent are to be reckoned as
among life's trifling annoyances compared with
the deep damnation of accepting a large sum of
money from William M, Tweed at a time when
there la the strongest presumptive evidence that
the money waa In payment of corrupt services just
rendered In securing a disagreement of the Jury.
Waa John It. Fellows one of Tweed's Jury
fixers T Had he revealed to Tweed the plans and
purposes of the District-Attorney's onVe during
the month of December, 1878, when tho Indict
ments woro found? Or In what way had he, so
lately an Assistant District-Attorney, been able to
put Tweed In a mood to mako this generous offer
and lulni;ltT Wo hope Fellows and hla friends
reallzo that theso proofs of his corrupt dealings
with Tweed nro absolutely fatal to him and his
chancea ot election unlets some complete and final
explanation IS at once made.

FELLOWS TWEED'S HENCHMAN.
Hit Assault an THden and O'Conor at the
Democratic Htate Convention.
Tns Woni.D has already reprinted from the New
York 7rrnld of Sept. SJ, 1871, IU report of a
speech made by Col. J. It. Fellows the evening
before In behalf of Wm. M. Tweed. The expos
ures which smashed the King and brought Tweed
to a felon's grave had already been made by
Samuel J. Tllden and Charles O'Oonor, bnrTweed,
wlth unparalleled Impudence, had had himself
nominated for Btste Senator and It was at a ratifi
cation meeting of this nomination that CoL Follows
said of the chsrges against " the boats"
" 18,000 of our citizens hatx arighlto ratse a
romm( to go noting around in our publio de
partments whv shouia not this meeting of so, 000
rorm another committee and a meeting tomorrow
night form another committee t I tell vou, gentle,
men, thevare raising a storm which they shall be
powerless to control. Themoment we step out of
these familiar paths we are all at sea and In utter
and helpless peril. These vague, baseless cluirges
had no substance when Ihev came to be Investi
gated." And of Tllden and O'Conor, CoL Fellows said :
Xoere Is another reason why '.vou should refuse
to If id vour support to these men. Who Is tt, for
sooth, who are working out our political solva
tion t J have no words to speak my detestation
and scorn for those who have gone over from our
own ranks to the other side.
The Democratic Btste Convention was held thst
yesr at Rochester, and Tweed and his gang, In
spite of the exposures, demanded recognition and
admittance. Col. Fellows went to Itocheater as
head ot the Tammany delegation, Tom Coman
being second on the list. Fellows assumed a bold
front, as against Tllden, Seymour, Church, Green
and the other honored leaders of the State Democ
racy, who were determined to purge the party of
the foul Illng of which CoL Fellows was then the
eloquent mouthpiece. The New York Herald re
ports Col, Fellows as saying before the conven
tion: " If the convention, bv Us action, decides that
we are a pack or thieves, and unworthy to asso
ciate with the other members, it might be a ques.
lion for Tammany to decide whether or not, under
the circumstances, Tammany people were not un.
worthy to vote to sustain a ticket wMeh might be
put Into their hands by others with whom they
were notJU to associate. "
Tweed followed In the same strain, saying: " Ge
ahead! Klok na outl If you can get along without
ns, all right. We want the State ticket to succeed;
but It you think you can elect your State ticket
without our help, go aheadl"
But the honest Democrats did not scare, and
Tweed, Fellows, Coman and the rest ot the gang
had to stay out.
Col. Fellows, It will be remembered, was per
suaded to settle In New York by Tweed, and was
made Assistant District-Attorney by written order
of Peter B. Sweeny.
The November election of 1871 wss the knell of
the Tweed gang. The citizens and the press whom
he had so malignantly assailed were triumphant
and for a time boodlelsm was crushed In New
York.
Shall It be reinstated?

REGARDED AS A SILLY HOAX.
Was Chitr-Jnetleo Walte'K "Infernal Ma

(incur, to xu cvxmxa wobld. I -
Washinoton, Nov. 4. It appears upon in
vestigation that tho sending of on alleged in"
fornal- machino to Ohlof -Justice Woite last
evening was a hoax gotten up by a 'sensa
tional newspaper man. Tho Chief Justico
admitted this morning that he had received a
" Jittlo box," " It came through tho mall.
It was a little papor box, perfectly harmless
and evidently sent for tho purpose of mak
ing n sensation."
r' Did you call in tho police?"
"No; but a policeman called hero about
it. I opened tho boxmysolf and found there
was nothing in it at all dangerous. It v as a
perfect shame. I don't think I would have
regarded it as-n matter for tho polico If the
policeman had not called to inquire about it."
Tho rcportor who first discovered the plot,
which was oven boforo the Chief Justico
rcceivod tho box, tells a very improbablo
story. Ho was standing in tho post-oiHce
last night about 0 o'clock. In reaching for a
pen ho observed a man directing a box to
Chief Justico Waite. It occurred to him a
few moments later that the box might con
tain dynamite. He hurried up to
tho residence of the Chief Justico, but did
not timo his arrival well, as he
got there ahead of tho box. Ho returned to
the post-oluco and found that the box had
actually been sent, and then with commend
ablo enterprise offered tho story to a couplo
of Western newspapers boforo notifying the
police.
Tho reporter can give no description of tho
man ho saw addressing tho box. Ho does not
romombor whether he was white or colored,
short or tall. The affair Is regarded as a silly
hoax.
