Mr. Tildon and the Electoral
Bill Inside Facts Coming
Out.
Wa siitnoton, Juno 28. —TIio recent
|„iter of Lieut. Gov. Dorsheimer de
clnring ho knew Gov. Tildon was
oppos'd to the passage of tiio law
creating the electoral commission, is
the subject of much comment in political
circles here, especial by leading Demo
crats, who have intimate knowledge ol
rll the material facts, and are in a
position to know bo.v that act came to
l>e ijissed.
When the conspiracy was first devel
oped by which Louisiana and Florida
were to bo capttired through returning
hoards, and Mr. Zach Chandler tele
graph over the country on the Bth of
November, Hayes lias one hundred nnj
eigbty-fivc votes and is elected,’ light
in the face of the returns for Mr Til
den Mr, Hewitt and others of the na
tional Democratic committee were urg
ed to appeal to the country, and to
prepare measures to defeat this dating
scheme to steal the Presidency.
Had Mr. Tildeu and his friends pursu
ed this course promptly and onerget molly
it is believed the conspirators would
have halted in their design when oon
|united with a popular majority of a
million of white undblack, independent
nf a clear and honest ugority in tie
• h-cloral colleges.
The New York managers hesitated
to take this responsibility, nnd 4 of course
they coombed with Mr. jTildett. Their
i xcuso was that Congress was about to
wait and take counsel of the Democrats
in both bouses. When Congress came
together on the Orst Monthly in De
cember no lino of notion was marked
nut. and opinions were loose and unset
tied.
Natural enough tho Democrats looked
to Mr. Tildon as their leader, and expo
cted from him snmo suggestion of
positive policy. Noun wns made. Mean
time the conspiracy wns growing in
strength every day by the supincneis,
distracted counsels and absence of un
ity on tho Dcmooatic side, becauso there
wns no rallying point whore their
strength might might ho concentrated.
Troops wero drawn to Washington, and
preparations wero made for a state of
flagrant war, about which tho public
has been hut indifferently informed.
Finding that New Yolk wutild not
inovo or loud the way, tho Western
Democrats in Ohio, Indinnna and Illi
nois made demonstrations ol a purpose
not to submit tamely to tho intended
fraud. If that movemoat had boon sec
onded warmly by meetings over tho
Forth for tho South had its hands tied
and wns little more than a passive spec
tator tho plot might still have been
arrested, though it had guiued headway
and beeumc formidable.
Mr. Hcwit and his advisers turned a
cold shoulder on this movement, and
discouraged it in every way, so that it
limy ho said to have fallen slill born.
Wi'h this failure disappeared the last j
hope of crushing out tho conspiracy by
a popular rising against it, Mr. Z ich- I
Chandler aud his associates wero elat., 1
ed, and the D mooruts were depressed
During nil this timo Democratic niem
ln rs of the Senate and House of Rep
resentatives wore constantly in confer
ence with Mr. Tildeu. without being
nblo to obtain from him any plan or de
‘ision which would solidify tho party.
The session wns drifting on and tho
day fast approaching for u count of the
vote. Mr. Edmunds had drafted his
bill for tho electoral commission and it
was referred to n connnittc. In this
state of things, and before either pert y
was committed absolutely, three mem
bers of the House of Representatives
went to Now York and consulted with
Mr. Tildeu, b caring messages from tho
most distinguished Senators. The al
ternative* presented were a resolute
call upon the people to defend their
rights, submission to the iniquity, or
the passage of the electoral bill. Mr.
Tildt n heard them patiently, consider
ed all the points, and closed by saying
•lon’t be in a hurry.’ (.Muirs saw him.
without getting any decisive judgment
or advice, one set believing him for the
bill and another against it.
Fudcr these circumstances the bill
became a law. The Democrat* were
never confident of socecs, but they
' ere encouraged by the belief that
Judge Davi* would be a nirmlnr nf the
commission, and they expected much
t orn his impartiality, moral couiaco
and practical mind, in sweeping away
•he devices and deceptiors and frauds of
Hie returning board*. He was unex
pectedly’ elected to tho Senate, and
having decided to accept that place re
fused to sit on the commission even if
unanimously chosen.
Ihe rest is recent history aud need
not be repeated. Mr. Dorsheimer’s
statement is unchallenged, bu* it must
be siad he enjoyed a con fid* i e-' from
Mr, Tildeu which was strangely with
held from his best friends iu Congress
and from the leader* of the party who
were entitled to know bis opiuions on
ihi* subject. Mr. Tildon has many j
statesmanlike qualities, but ho is not a
leader of men. His tuind is slow, de
liberated aud well poised, but he lacks
tho spirit of prompt action and of ener
getic command. He may bo said to j
have thrown away tho Presidency ow- I

WE ARE CONSTANTLY IN RECEIPT OF AGUE YT MANY INQUI
vies from all parts of this State and Florida, so that, we find it almost impossi
ble to answer each inquiry separately. Wo now take this method to explain
to the readers of the SENTINEL alljihe? particulars necessary for them to
know;
1. Wc wti? send samoles to any onojwho will write ns r >r thorn, with price at
tached. provided a 3 cent postage stamp is enclosed and every article mention
ed which parties desire, and ran bo sampled; but. do not write u* to sand you
samples of everything, for that rs impossible. Write u f>r samples <>f such
Hoods only as von Imv. a notj m. of purchasing Rmmber also, samtdas only
give an idea of what the goods are,’but do not give the artiule full justice.
2. D > not have anv hesitancy in ordering the goods you wan t, for wo gujnr,na,
tee every article to coirm up to sample, and if unsatisfactory, it can b* returned'
to us at our expense, aud tee- will refund Ike money.
3. Sbonid any article-tarn out unsatisiactory, which might oecnr through*
oversight or otherwise,, do, not prejudge us of having done so inten'i -ii laly, bu
give us the benefit of the doubt, and before returning it write ns your com
plaint, so that, if possible, we might en'angc mutten satisfactorily, wit Lout tk
trouble andyxpeuse oi tetarning,

4. Cvlicaes we cannot always matoh
in dm pattern, as we Ball largo quanti
ties of goods au l it is impossible to
keep ov-ry pattern for any length of
time. Sueh and similar goods we guar
antee to (i'l, by giving the same quali
ty, and as near the pattern as possible.
5. l Vc ask as a favor, that parties
ordering go- ds ho very particular in
writing their name and shipping point
in plain letters, to avoid mistakes; also
to make their order as definite as pas
sible, especially on articles of which
samples cannot be sent, we would ask .
to rive us a limit in tho price, to enable
us to f ,irm a P l "‘l ,cr 'Lira of what ihejar-.
tiule is to b°-
0 Whenever it is possible, we pre
fer the money to accompany the onb-r,
hut we will send the goods G- O. D.
(cash on delivery) by Express, and if in
structed, wo will instruct the agent to
open the package for examination be
fore paying for it.
7. Wc do not sell on [’credit under
any consideration. If previously ar
ranged, wc will take a cotton factor’s
acceptance in payment.
8. Do not order any goods unless
J"U have the money’ ready to pay fvr
them.

d’-rs amounting to twenty dollars or
over. This is the very bed we do, for
our profit so slight (ns we retail our
goods at wholesale prices) that we can
not afford to do better. We admit
there are houses who pay freight on
ten dollars worth of goods, bnt com
mon sense teaches plainly that their
?n.fit must be larger than'ours, or else
they could not afford to do it. and,
therefore, in such cases, the party
ordering the goods of sneh houe pays
the frtigbt after all —only indirectly.
We have endeavored to be as honest and candid in our statements as the lan
guage at our command cau do it,find if this fails to convince, we do not know
what can.
