If the people bad bad o voico in Now York, Kinga, and Albany Counties, the result would have been the saino: as else~ where, decldedly anti-Tilden; but Tilden con- trotied the organizations, and could name who- ever ho liked for delogates.

THe Tripuny has heen informed of tho position of those who wish to be considered the leaders of the Hepublican party in Minnesota. They are almost allGrant mon, Shis includes the Chairman of tho State Committee, with the Senators, and tha Member of Congress trom this district. Tho other Itepublican Congressman, Dunnell, has not declared himself. If ho isnot a Grant man, ho will not como out for any other candidate until itis wholly sufo to do so, The only indication of his sontiments fs the fact that several papers in his district, whose editors ure Poatmaaters, show leanings towards Iluine, The State Coins mittee, at its recent mecting, waa apparently divided and indliferent, and obviously non- committal They wero extremely careful that no two of them should oo f preferance for the sume one of the prominent National candl- datos, but nll allowed themselves to yo upon record as extromely anxious to presont tho name of BENATOR WINDOM to the Chicngo Convention, if thore were tho re- moteast puasible chance of hig nomination, Since the meeting of the Committee no number of country pipers of acertain class have begun to boom for Windom: and the tmpression has been carefully created that the appesrince of Minne. sota at Chicago with e favorit malo aera of nor owt is not sucha ridiculous fmpossibliity after ull, Now, all this ts at leust translucent, Mr. Wine doin is a practical politician and legisintor, whose highest quality 1s his cool, clear comm: sense, He knows tint he could command supportof every Republican In Minnesota for any serious Presidential aspirations, Heknows, too, that te entertain such usplrutions would be to sacrifice his reputation for the poxsession uf that eminently useful quatity which has Just been mentioned, He is not a candidnte for the Presidency in an candid and serious sqnse, Io would not permit = over- enthusiustle friends to use his name before n Minnesota Convention to. the injury of the candidate to whom his support fa pleadged— Gen, Grint. Those who are beginning to use hls name fie this way are not, over-enthusingtic friends, ‘They know exactly whit: they are about. ‘They do not use his name for the injury of Grant, but to udvance his Interests; te Ke- cure for hlin a delegation from Minnesota in the dane of Windom, which he could not, poe Ps, secure in blsown name. They Intend that a Windom delegation from Minuésota’ to Chicago BHALL AE A GRANT DELEGATION after a slinple compllitontirs: vote, Look back to tho beginning of this talk about Windom. It originated ina balf-humorous after-dinner re- murk of Conkling, who would as soon hive his hiir cut as to think of anybody but Grant. [fit dnd any serious significance, it was an attempt to,attach the Northwest through the name .of 1 Senator who has tone n great deal to develop its interests, and whose intluence and popularity are not limited by State Ines, to the triumphal car of. tho Grant boom.—to which, In truth. It was re- luviant to harness (taclf direetly. Windom is 0 loyal member of the old Senatorial group, and in'sincerely In favor of the nominution and elec- tion of Grant. He would probity consent to be tomporarily placed ina false position {f by so. doing he coukl advance tho interests of his candidute, What his aileged candidacy means, thon, is this: ‘Those political managers who have arranged to send aGrant delegation from Minnesota to: Chicago see n grout denl in tho State to miko them doubt tho success of their plans, There [na strong Blaing sentient in tho southern coun- ties, and, inn tess degree, ull over this Stute,— the remains of ‘tho fiery enthusiasm of v0. Thore is a strong ‘Anti-Grant senti- ment among thé Germuns of tho Second Dig- trict. nnd among ‘thoughtful Republicuns of all nationalltics everywhere, There is a Wash- burno sentiment In Minneapolis, which does not. want to wait until Grant is out of the way, ‘There ure x good many obstacles in tho way of sending iGrant delegation to Chiengo, unless tho deaign is sugar-couted In-sumo way. Tho plan appears to bo to BUGAN-COAT IT WITH STATE PRIDE. Thoy have planted a Windom boom, and nourished tt fst to the polnt of growth that wakes it avnlluble for emergencies, Thoy will still try to secure n Convention that can, be curried for Grant. If this faits,—if the countics send up unmunugoablo delegates, or delegates plodged to othor candidutes,—the Stute prido und porsonal Hiking of every mun for Windom will be challonyed by 8 presentation of his name as Minnesota's favorit son, Of course a Win- dom dulegation will be the result; and cure will bo tuken to have ita Grant delegation, too, The’ outcome will bo n vote or two at Chicago asa warn Abe to Windom; ,and thon Minnesota for Gruitt. Suppose this to be tho plan, how far fs {t lkely to be sucecssfully carried out? Jest so fur as the County Couventions permit, f they send dvlegates to St. Punt, cboson at random, without instructions, and without a very clear notion of whut thoy ure here fur, they will probably be olny Jn the bans of the potter. If thoy send detegates who fuirly represent the popular sene timent of thelr various localities, and are pre- pared to make a proper elfort ta cauee that sen- timent to be respected, it will not be sv casy to commit Minnesota to Urant, elthor directly or under cover of Windom, Tho dologates are not chosen by the Congreasionn! Districts in Minne~ sotu, but by the Convention 1s u whole; but loval abades of pinion eat svoure recognition if Shoy tight Cor it. There fg x guod deal of evidence that the coun- tles understand tho situation, and ure shaping thelr course uecordingly, Bluine's frlonds are: moving. Of course nobody antagonizes. the Windom boom; but a number of papers buys algnlticnntly deelured for Windom, WITIL ILAINE AB SECOND CHOICE, ‘These are not contined to any part of the State, though several are in tho southern countics, ‘One ts In Stearns County, north of here, A Dum- oeratic nowspaper in Mankato expresses the be Hef that Hlatne’s fnterests are stendily advane- ing in that section, ‘This is eertalnty true of tho wholo State, Tho example of Towa bus had 1 powerful influence, and nobody has forgotten ow SMinnesott clove to Haine and grioved at his dofeut {0 1878.

NOW RIS CANDIDACY AND HIS ALLEGED UNWIT- LINGNERS AE REGARDED BY HIB MOST INTI- MATE FRIENDS IN VERMONT, St Albans (Vt) Measenger, April 15, The following wns telegraphed by Forbes from Burlington to tho Boston Journal yeatur- day. Itaccords substantinily with expressions Jn private letters which we have received from Kenntor Edmunds, It is notleeable that tho Blaine organs are very solicitous that Senator Edmunds’ personal wishes should be heeded by the party, We are duly grateful for thelr inter- est In his behaty, but the bighost duly of good Republicans {s tu thoir party as the best means for the good of the country; henee, “will he nll he," we must have the beetinao. Forbes’ dis- patch Is as follows: “The various statements that have been made, Ppllrporting to represent Senator Edmunds’ posi ton relative to the candidacy for the Prestden- {lal nomination, have prompted the carrespond- ent of the Journal to necertiin tis true position on this question froin parties holding contidens tal relations with the Senator, and to whom his views have recently been fnparted and‘are clearly undertood,” The statement recegtly mare by the Washington correspondent of€tho Tribune, that the Vermont friends of Senator Edmunds suggested to a Representative in Cone areas that he uccept the leadership of the Ver mont doleyution to Chicage orier to present ress the nnine of Senntor Edmunds for tho consileration of the Convention,—and that Sen- ator Edmunds told this member his only wish wits that, if ho went, he should muke it known to the Convention that his name was not to bo presented to the Convention—Is likely to be tnis- apprehended, It Isconceded by the Senator's friends here that, {f this was snid at all, it must. have been said previous to tho mecting of tho Vermont Republican State Convention on Feb, 25, and at atime when the candidacy of Senator Edmunds was considered hardly as 2 possibility, and before he was brought into tho field ever iM hisown State, The sltuntion is now materially changed, now that he bas assumed a lending po- sition by tha nction of the various conventions. ‘Tho pronounced favor with which his name bus been received in Connceticut and Missuchi- sctte, and tho prospective indorsement of his gandidacy by the Bay State Itepublicans on. Weduesday, make this statement of Senator Edmunds" position of paramount impor- tance. In presenting tho namo of the Senator to the country 13 one eminently fitted for the office, the Vermont Ropublicins well understood the position of tholr Senator on the queation of his own candidacy. Hundreds of Republican town-caucuscs, the entire Kepubll- can press of the Htate, and threo State and District Conventions have pronounced must. eniphatically and unmistakably for hia ean-' didaey,—ench and every one knowing full well that he was not u candidate in the konso of bolng aseekorfor the office. The sentiinents of tho Republican Party, us cxpressed In the resolu- uons adopted at their Conventions, are in full tivcurd with the views of Xenator Edmunds, ao, far us relates to tha principles enusjotated ond) tho polley that should govern tho: selec-{ tion of a Presidentiat nominee. This plut- fourm {8 one that Senator Kdmunds and’ the Vermont Republicans stand - squarely upon, and which all truo Republicans cun heartily in- dorse: The muintennnee of the principles of tho Hepublican party to be purnmount te the success Of any particular candidate; watving Personal anbitions and preferences, and exer- cising a calm and tntelilgent consilerition 1s to what menns will conduce to success, to nominate that candidate whoso sterling Ropublicanism, stanch integrity, and unspotted charactor will commend him to trie Republicans everywhero, Tho Vermont Republicans know he doca not seek the offico, and that his personal preferences are notin this direction. fut they ulso know that, if tho Republlenn purty seek him for tholr standard-bearer, ho would bo loyal to the bes heats uf the purty, and accept tho trust from a senso of duty.” NOTES, TROUALE AULAN POR CINCINNATI, Sptciat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune, Wasimnatos, D.C.
