Satd by all drigls The Chitage Tribane, Monday Morning, June 14, 1878, President Grant, a fow days ngo, having tlanced nt SnEnaaN's * Memoirs, ” enid that, #o far na ho had rend, he found thostatoments in the bookncenrate and just in the main. Having read further nnd obtained s move cor- rect iden, ho is now moved to criticise the ¢ Memoirs,” in his usual sententious vein, thns: “Well, T am beginning to find out that I didn't havo much to do with tho last War.” Wo can imagino that Gnantlooked quizzienl whon ho said it, and that Smzasan will feel cheap when bo honrs of it. The Fon. Jomy C, New, tho Treasurer of tha United States that {s to bo on and aftor the first day of July, is o modest man as well 08 an nble finnucier, ¥lo declines n compli- mentary dinuer, tendored Ly the best people of Indinanpolis, irrespective of party, prior to his departure for Washington, basing his declination npon the ground that tho duties of tho Trensurership ars new to Lim, nod that lis ability is ay yot unproved. DBankera are so different! Now, we believe that nn. der the same circumstances B, F. Auex would have taken the dinner,~wonld take it to-dsy, if anybody could bo prevailed upon to offer it. Tho Clovelond Democrats, in choosing their delegates to the State Convention, and in framing & declaration of principles, wero betwoen two fires,—on one side, the demands of tho workingmen for gulores of pnpor- monoy, and, on the other sido, their own convictions of policy. Policy carried the day, and thoy put in a clouse calling for a plan of specio resumption which should be steady, but at tho same time so cautions as not to disturli business interests, This declaration, though sweotened with an ingredient of caution, meahs something in ko direction of hard moncy,—something which must gorely afllict and distrasa the Cin. cinnatl Enguirer to undorstand'how, in the very faco of it infiatlon tenchings, Ohlo Democrats can entertain such Ropublican Yioretical doctrines, In canne‘cuon with onr ropert of Friday's proceedinigs in tho Beromen cnse, wo pub. lishod the simplé announcomont that Frank CanpexTES, the artist, had given to the world through the nowspapers an important state- ment as affecting tho truthfulness of sev- eral of tho principal witnesses for the do- fenso on'the point of tho date of the knowledge, by lir. Brrones and others, that Twzox's charge was adultory and not improper solicitations, For resons oxplalned by Mr. Braon in the course of his nrgument, Fuanz Canrexten was not called ns o witnoss for tho plaintiff, though the natura of his testimony had been outlined; and, ns this ontline of what he would have snid was flatly contradicted by tho other side, he has pub- lishod over his own signature o statement of the mattors at jssuo, An extended nbstract of his statement iu given elsewhera. TUpon the authority Mr, Jewerr, Presi- dent uud Recaiver of the bankrupt Erie Rail- rood, it is announced that a confoeronce be- tween Tox Bcorr, of the Penusylvania, and 3r.

Here ia tho golden opportunity for the wealthy gen- tloman who aro fortunate cnough to own and control the City Roilway Company. CO-OPERATION IN CHIOAGO. During the winter of 18784, o vigoroma ngitation brought'the subject of co-oporation before tho publio of this city, Tho wide- apread distress of the working classes at that time, aud the publication of facts illustrating the really startling success of the idea in En- gland and Germany, insured the new theory o hoarty reception. Severnl co-operative or. gunizations wero started here, Tho short lifo of most of.them shows how far they foll short of fulfllling the sanguine hopes of their promoters, This result was not unexpocted to the men who contributed most to tho agi- tation, Tho burden of their teaching was that time, patience, and disinterostediiess wore needed factors in successful co-operation. Tho men who tried to practico the theory rejected theso essential parta of it. Thoy bogan busi- ness too soon, befors enongh capital had been collected; thoy wera unable to wait a fort- night for the promised profits; and they fought aud quarcled without ceasing. The co-operative shoemakers flrst judiciously wadted, in an useless strike, all the money rogand to Jax Cooxr's Northern Paciflo enter- prise. The then financinl oditor of the Now York World, and onoe Monnta Mzyen, editor of n paper called tho Handels-Zeitung, nro anid to havo mado almilar agrosments, Some. thing was said in oach onso nbout ** personal influonce,” but of course thia amounted to nothing. It was tho nowspnper which Mr, Boonr waa oftor in ench case, The worst of all theso rovelations of hribery in connaction with newspapers and newspa- por-men soems to bo that both the bribers and the bribed might botter have kopt out of thoscrape, The rulo seems to bo that the Credit-Mobilier railronders who buy up nows- popor-men scarcely ever got their mioney's worth, and the newspaper-men who consent to be bribed aro generally oxposed by the mon who bribed thom after the * enterprise” haa collapsed. POLITIOAL LIBELS. There will undoubtedly Le n very general fecling of surpriso upon tho part of the public at the announcoment that tho Pitts- burg (Pa,) Pest has had a verdict rendered agninst it in a libel suit growing out of cer- tain campnign billingspate printed in its columna with reforencys vo one W. D, Moong, 8 local politician of that city, and that the Jjury nssessed the damnges ot the large figure 0f$10,000,~whicl: is one-lnlf tho sum claim- ed, It appears that Mr. Moore, in the munie. ipal compaign two years ago, was Chairman of the Democratio County Committes, and, as thero was n split in the party, was at loggerhends with tho. editor of the Post, n Democratic newspaper. Jusé prior to the election, Mr. Moone c¢amo out in a card oud advised Domocrats to volo for the Republican ticket, wheroupon the Post denounced him ns an ingrate, and charged him with having been bought by tho Republicans, Thereupon Mr. Moors brought suit, with the result we havoe stated. an argument on the dignity of labor, and re- torted that ho had as much right to do his work as ho (IIont) hiad, and would not go. Thereupon he resunted Lis grinding, and Mr, Huxr gavo him in charga of a conatable, who, having no ear for music or sympathy with Inzzaroni, took him to the station. Upon his trinl, Rocco summoned n mald-servant living next door to Mr. Huxt, who testifled thnt both sho and her ‘mistress bnd ears for musi¢, and that Rocco was accustomed to come and play for them, and that they had paid him regularly, Tho Conrt, aftor heare ing tho testimony, euggosted {o the servants girl with hor ear for musio that lherenfler, if sho and her mistress wanted to henr Rocco'’s strafus, they must take him into tho houso; farthermore, that ho must finc Rocco 20 shil. lings, and, ns they were so fond of Rooco and Lis musio, thoy would uundoubtodly pay his fine,—which they didn’t do, howover, They cructly left him to do it, and Mr, Honr was relieved. Ho will no longer have his artistio labora disturbed by Roaco. It is safo to sy that Rocco will give him & wide berth, 08 well a9 the two women who turned out to be such striking instances of fomalo ingrati- tudo, And now sincothe lawonn reach the organ- grinder in England, ean it not do the samo thing in this country, and especially in Chi- cogo? Hore we have organ-grinders not only from Sunny Italy but from Sunny Iree Innd, Germany, SBweden, Franco, and numor- oua other climes which aro not sunny. Wo bave male and femalo organ-grinders, of all nges ; organ-grindors with one arm and ono leg; organ-grinders with humpad backs, with deformed limbs, with stumps for hands, with wooden legs, with goitre, and numeorous other moustrous natural developments ; organ.grinders blind, in one eys and blind in both ; organ-grindors with broods of dirty children swarming over tho sidewalks ; organ.grindors with sick and deformed chil- dron. They have taken possession of almost avery corner of our busiest thoroughfares, until our stréets Legin to look as if somo The surprising featuro of this verdict is the faot that the snme offenso has been commit- ted probably thousands of times by nows- they had earned as jonrncymen aud all that their trade-union could give them, and then sgolomnly announced thnt they hnd decided to co-operato with ench other, ond so be their own employers, They went to grief, of against tho negro, but to carry the Stato in | Stato ehall bo allies,—*‘enemies in war, in 1876 for tho Domocratio National tioket, ( Peace Irionds"; not o Union whersin the “ Practically,” Lo soys, and probably with | Whole peoplo, whita and binck, shall bo ldn- trath, “thore i8 no Republicnn party fu | dred and countrymen, knowing no country or Georgin.” Excopt on national issuos, the sovercignty lung thon the whole country, and peoplo of the Btata ara coming to disregard | oWing no allegiance save to the whole United porty lines.

What do you fntend by the phrass, THE WABASH AVERUE RAILWAY, At tho time the Common Council granted the right of way to the Chicago City Railway to Iny n double track on Wabnsh nvenuo as far sonth ns Twenty-socond streot, thera wera three separato bidders for this privilege. Two of them offered the city.valuablo considera. tions for this {ranchice, one of thom sgres. ing to koep tho entire street in repair, and the other o pay a certain percentnge of the roceipts into the City Trensury. In addition to these considorations, it was very ronson ohbly urged that it was in the interest of the public that this parallel line should go into the hands of o competing company. In spite of nll this, the Common Council awardaed, and the Mayor approved, the franchise in avor of the City Railwsy Company, which ndy controlled all the lines of stroet rail- rond running south, The circumstances wo have recomted, nlong with others still which wero noted in ‘Tue Trinuse at the time, led to an impression that corrupt influ. ences hod dictated the award. The Grand Jury in session ot the time made an invosti- gation, and, in their report, said that thoy had not taken evidenco which warranted any indictments, but recommended that their snc- cogsors ghould follow up the trail they hod struck, This was not done, and the matier was at an ond.

It took yenrs to do the preparatory work in England which—thanks to the con- croto proofs of co-oporation now offered by the thousands abroad—has already been done here, CORRUPT JOURNALISTS. Bomo interesting information was given by Mr. ¥ H, Boopy, awoll-known railrond man, and formerly Tressurer of tho Rockford, TRock Island & 8t. Lonis Railrond Company, in his testimony taken in the foroclosure-suit agninat that Company. It concerns jour. nalists nnd journalistio relations with rail- ronds of the Credit-Mobilior order. -Mr, Boopy was tho financial agent of the road, and found himself called upon to place $5,000,000 of bonds befors an inch of tho railrond wos constructed. Ho states in his ovidenco *‘that whoover endeavors to nego- tinte a railway loan, especially of the char- nctor that I was handling, must scouro the oid of the pross in order to be succossful ; it cannot bo accomplished without the in. fluenco of the press,~withont their notive co.operation ; that co.operation is to be purchased.” This is o very gonernl nssertion, and it is scarcely sustained by tho revelntions that Mr. Booor had to make. Wo have no doubt that, in the era of Credit-Mobilier railronding, one of the first things the financial agents of such a concern did was to buy up anybody and overybody willing to be bought, who could exert any im- portant influonce in decoiving capitalists or betraying the public, Included in this cato- gory would bo legislators, journalists, brokers, ond such other public and somi-public por sons ns would deliboratoly soll out. The revelations in the original Credit Mobilier, in Gon, Faemont's Memphis & El Paso, and in all the other bogus concorns of this nature, indicate this much. Butinall the develop- ments “go far, tho gontlemen who have confessed to the offering of the bribes havo failed to implieato any nowspapers ox- cept thoso whioh were withont infinence nt tho time or subsequently lost their influ. ence. Generally, the bribed journalista have proved to Lo men of no power themselves, and who could only sell out tha truss thoy held until they wero discovered. While it is true that the negotiators of worthless bonds have generally sought the assistance of a cer- tain class of newspaper-men through bribes, thoy bave almoat always thrown away thoir monoy, and the results so far do not warrant the comprehonsive indictment which Mr, Boopy makes in the sontonco wo have quoted. Mr, ‘Boopy mays that ho distributed about $120,000 worth of bonds among newspaper mon to socure their favors in disposing of 5,000,000 of the samo bonds, 8o far as we havo rosd his evidenco, he accounts for only $76,000 of this amount, leave ing nearly $15,000 worih in the dark, Why doos ho not tell where the balance was used ? Ig it because it wea distributed among ob- scure ottaches of newspapers, of whom nobody evor hoard? He says that the ro- mainder *‘gonorally wont to writers of money articlos in various connedtions, and none of them went to tha oditors of theso papers,” Trobably Mr, Boopy has glven the names of the most prominent mon he succosded in bribing. One ia the editor of nwaekiy paper of a professodly religions character whioh bas long been suspocted of proatituting fts editorial columns for money; another ia that of a money writer (uow decensed) on 8 Now York dnily paper of limited influence; tho third is the editor of a German paper that is raroly heard of on this slde of the water, whatever standing it may have in Europe. If the list {s no more formidable than this, the goneral asporsion of the journallstic profes- slon which Mr. Boopy makes is by no means sustained. If ho haa other and more im- poriant names in resorve, he should make thom public, 1n dofending the newspaper profession gen- erally, we have no desiro to shicld or excuse those who have done s0 much to bring the newspaper profession into contempt, Mr, Bowzx, the editor and propristor of the In- ¢, is set down for $10,000 of these bonds, in consideration of which, Mr, Boony tells us, Bowsx agreed that the Jndependent shduld indorse the enterprise editorially, and print anything which Mr, Boopy wrots in fa- vor of it. It bes genarally besu suppossd that Mr, Bowsw mads s similar agreamant in papers in politicnl campaigns, by spoakers upon tho stump, and in politieal documents of every description, without nttracting any particular notice, and most certainly without its costing the offenders ton thousand dollarg or ten cents, This bas happened from tho fact that thero has always been a kind of mu- tual understanding that politicians wero freo to oy anything thoy plensed nbout each other, and that nowspapors wight chargo a candidate with nenrly all the erimes in the calendar with the utmost impunity, In war nll was fair, ond the meore charge of dosertion to tho onemy was looked upon ns one of tho mildest modes of treating o political opponent. In fact, the nowspaper which did@ not allege, before tho campaign was finished, that the candidato on the other side had boen ongnged in numerous swisdling operntions, had narrowly escaped the Peni. tentiary on two or threo occasions, had been nbusive of his family, bsd stolen, sworn, and licd, nnd was a confirmoed drunkard, and that ol hia relatives were mendicants, growing oup of their vicious practices, was not considerod n very nggressive or snccessfol partisan, and could not expeot s very large slico of tho loaf if its party was successful. Mon who took the flold for office took it with this expocta- tion, and with the knowledge that their reputations were to bo handled withont cour- tosy. Politicians not running for offico also expected to bo bosmirched themselves and to be allowed the privilege of besmirching oth. ers, and thers is no Stata in the Unlon whero this oustom hns been more frecly oxercised and enjoyed than in Pennsylvania, Ono can faintly imagine, therefore, the constornation that soized upon the Pennsylvania politiclans, who are the most corrupt and venal of the closs, when thoy loarnod from Pittsburg that hereafter it will cost one politician $10,000 to charge another with having beon bribed, un. loss he can moke tho oharge good. It de- prives them of their stock in trado at onco, It will be hard hereaftor for a Demoaratic pol- itician to bo obliged to witness ono of his as- sociatos affiliating with tho opposite party and not bo nble to hurl the charge of bribery of him. If this verdict, howavor, was on honest ono, and not the result of partisan revenge, it moy have o boneficont result, after all, Reckless personal abnse and indiscriminato blackgunrding are the curse of American pol- itics. 'They elfect no uscful end, for no one puts any credit in campaign stories.or is n; sll influenced by campaign epithets, It mn; bo that this jury bns set an examplo which will be productive of good, and that wo aro to enter upon an era of political puriication. 1f 8o, thero is no botter place to commence than Pennsylvania, If it succeeds thore, thera will bo no difffieulty elsawhers, ———— LAW AND HAWND.ORGANS. An aflicted ond Iong-suffering community will be glad to know that ona at least of that prmerous army of lazzaroni who annually leave the shores of Sunny Italy, with no other object in lifo than to moke mankind wrotched with the grinding of a barrel-organ, has at last como to grief.
