Traitor. To the Editor of The Constitution. We simply wish to endorse the sentiments contain i in the lerding editorial which appealed in Thurs day's issue, on the cowardly action of the Board of Directors of the Deaf and Dumb and the Blind Asy lum. They have elected a Demo crat Treasurer of that institution, when there were good Republicans who d ired the position, who sent in their application, and who could have as well, if not better, filled the sinie, and, too, With more accepta bility to the parly. But this is nothing more than what they have j1 ways done in defiance of all that has been said by our organs and t.irough them by our people. So t le time hps come, sir, when we Mhould act and not talk, therefore, I sueg t that a public 'meeting be ca.lcd, and every such traitor be spotted and denounced before he succe Is in getting in to other and more profitable places of power and trust.
