The “third-term and old-crowd” organ exhibita mdny symptoms of alarm lest the machine would not ba able to forca tho “spontaneous” third-tennism down the throuts of tho delegates to the Clilongo Con- vention. Ong of these confessions.of weal ness is to be found in the desperate effort to make tt appear that a majority of the Ohlo delegation will be prepared to go over to Grant as soon ng it shall becume apparent that Shermati lias no chance for the nomina- tion. If the hops of the third-term movoment resta Won so sl{ght u support as this, then it is certulnly In a desperate way, While the Ollo delegation will by divided in its active support between Sherman and Bialne, it will bos unit In Its opposition to the third-torm issue, ‘Tho one thing which tho Ohto dele- gutton will make apparent to the Chicago Convention 13 the danger the Republican party will run by losing that State both in Octuber and In November Jf it bo weighted down with a third-term candidate, It will not inelst to the last upon the nomfnation of elther Sherman or Blaine, but It will Inslat to the Inst that Gen, Grant cannot be nom- Inated, under existing conditions, without endangering Republlean succeas in Ohlo. Moreover, tho counting of contingent Strength in the Ohio delogation indleates that the third-termers have abandoned the -hope of nowluating thelr candidate on the Arat ballot, while it is the untyorsal opinion thot {f Grant fall to receive a majority on, the first ballot he wil! then loge all chance of! receiving the nomination, if Sul another cry of despair [s tobe found in the fact thatthe third-term organ now warns the opponents of the third-term move ment to “go slow," because they may noed tha uct{ve coOperation of Gen. Grant's friends both to nomluaty and to elect another candt- - date, All this may bo freely admitted... ut why ts the warning given nt this time? Is it in the naturo of a threat that the Conklings, Camerons, Logans, and other thirdterm Members of the Senatorial Syndicate are ilis- posed fo sulk In their tents or open afire In the rear in ense they fail to force the homl- nation of their man? Or{s itan admission that the third-terin manngers now look upon their moventent ns a forlorn hope, and desire at the most to place themselves inn position of commanding influence in the seleetion of another candidate? In either enie, the Significance of this warning seems to Io In thg contemplated rejection of tho dangerons tlitrd-term Issue which its advocates have nat heretofore conceded to bo among the possibilities, Finally, the annouacement that Gen. Logan tins come to Chicago to re- main until after the Convention, and to tnke personal direction of the third-tern move- ment, is indicative of the state of desperation which afone would warrant Gen, Logan's desertion of his seat in tho Unitet States Senate to take charge of a local factional fight. Af theso ovidences of weakness siall con- tinue to nceumulate between the present time and tho date of the Chiengo Convention, they can scarcely fail to make an {impression upon Gen, Grant himeelf, who fs in a position at any time to sny that he is not n candidate, Qen. Grant wrote to Gen. Uarry White in May, 1875: “1 am not now, nor havw Lever been, a candidate for renominatiot.”” “He added, in the same letter, that he “ would not accept a nomination if it were tendered, Unless It should come under such cirewn- stances ns to make it an inuperativa duty,—, elreunistances not Hkely to arise” In his last annual messago as President he said: “Tt Is not probable that public affairs will ever again receive attention from mo further than as n citizen of the Repubile ‘always taking a deep interest In the honor, Integrity, and prosperity of the whole land.” Gen. Grant fins at no tine made any public utter- ance In conilict with these statements, If he has silently allowed his name to be used a3 a candidate for a third term, it Is probably because he has been persuaded by those who desire to use him thal the Ameri- can people demand his return.to political Ife, fhe shull tind, however, as the time for the Conventfon approaches, that his nom- nation threatens 1 dissenstonin the Repub- livan party, that It can only ke secured If nt all by delegates from States that will not vote for him, and that his chance for election Is regarded as doubtful oy all the Republican States, he will then be satisfied, in despite of tho deceptions of those who are near tahim, that there is no enthusiastic popular demand for his return to political Jife—-no “elreum- stances? which would render his acceptance of n nomination “an imperative duty,”—and his past utterances would in such ense sug- gest his public declaration that ho will nobhe feandidate. Such adeclaration would finally and definitively eliminate thethird-term issue from the appronehing struggle and relieva the Republican party of a serious and dangerous embarrassment THE COOK COUNTY CONVENTION. ‘The Republican Central Committee of this county has suddenly evinced very remarka- Die energy. It has designated next Saturday ~three days from now—as the day for hotd- ing primaries, and next Afonday as the date of the County Convention for selecting dele- gates to the Republican State Convention, which is to bo held in Springfield on tho 19th inst. Thus only threo days’ notico is given for tho great City of Chicago ant its county suburbs, ineluding 40,000 Republican yoters, to express thelr preference as to Republican leadership in the approaching Presidential eampaign, The third-terin machine politi- clans, represented by the Central Committee, have had several months’ notice, and have been actively engaged in organizing their forees, but three days are regnrded as abundant time for enlisting the mnss of the people In a mattor. in which they have the deepest concern. Since the Commitica continued silent on the subject, it has generally been supposed that the County Convention would not be held tilt threo or four days preceding the State Convention. This has beon the usual practice. Some {important consideratton intist have induced tha managing politicians to precipitate matters, Was It because of an impression that the third-term movement is fast losing ground in Cook County? Was It because certain “ Washburne”? meetings have been annonuncad, and beeause there have recently been slgns that certain wards in this efty would sond Washburne delegates to the State Convention in sptte of that gen- tleman's protest? “Was it because the dan- ger hasbeen foreseon that the anti-third-term senthnent In this county would be powertal enough to defeat the third-tetm delegates it any inoro time were glyen for its organiza- Uon? Was it beeauso the managers of the third-term movement became convinced that they conkt make no more headway, but might lose soe of thelr present follawing, If the strug, ale continued much longer? Was ita de- sire to constrain the.expression of » majority of the Republican voters in Chicago and Cook County that suggested this unusually brief and notoriously Insuflicient notlee? ‘The hurried, announcement of the prima- thes and County Convention can only be ne- counted for by some alarming apprehension of third-term defeat, and the purpose of taking snap judgment upon the Republicans who control those Congressional districts in this State. Lhe schema may aifscarry, It any result Inn concentration of luterest and -activity among the Republican roters who do not rin the political machine, At all events, every Republican who helleves tho third- term Issue will be an embarrassment In the Presidential struggle will aye an opportu. nity ta oxpress that opinion at the primaries next Saturday, Those who shall fail toxio socan only blame thomselyes if the third. term Issue shat] be obtrudud upon the party, and shall drag It down whon the flual strug- gle shaltcony, \THE GREAT TRIENNIAL CONOLAVE OF KNIGHTS TEMPLAR. Among the. many popular demonstrations of which Chicago will-be the centre this stiminor that surrounding and attending the ‘Triennial Conclave of the Grad Encamp- ment of Knights Templar of tho United States will be the most extensive and {mpos- ing. ‘Tho National Republlean Convention will draw crowds of people and unquestion- ably provoke great popular onthusiagin, whoever tho nondneo may be,—Washburne, Blolne, Grant, or the “dark horse’? ‘There will bo some boomlug of, canton, some blare of music, somo filghts of tho eagle, great crowds and great excitements, crowded hotefs and streets, and an endless torrent of tilk Jn lobbies and on street-corners, but there will be nothing to catch the evye—no procession, no gay sights, no imposing turn- outs, no pageantry, ‘There ts nothing of the decorative in polltica, The wires which are pulled are seoret. ‘The machines which aro sot in motlon runia the privacy of comiittee-rooms, The Exposition Building ‘will bo tilled with a crowd of schoming, plot- ting politiclans, working for their favorit candidates, but public enthusiasm wij! not culminate until some one of the candidates wins the prize. There will bo a day's en- thusiasm, and then the next morning or that night the multitdde will sock their homes, the Masgule conclave, on the other hand, ~ Will be in the natnre of a pageant, for which preparations have been going on more than a year, with that gorgcons disregard of ex- pense that ntways characterizes Knight Tem plary. The Grand Encampmont, composed of the supreme legislative body, num- Dering about five hundred, which meets here on Monday, Aug. 1, for business and continues in session ono week, will te the nucleus of this pageant, aud nround Lt will gather not far from 30,000 Knights, who will escort tho Encampment to {ts headquarters on tha Lake-Front. The Exposition Building, gorgeously decorated, has been secured and the entire Lake-Front from that bullding to Park row will be dotted with the handsome tents of the Knights. ‘They will represont every part of the United States and Canada, And many visitors from abroad will also be in attentianee. On the th tho parade will take place and will velipseanything everseen, before tn thls country In extent, brillinucy, and tnffitary precisfon anit disploy, os the various commandoeries pride thenselves upon their drill, m which respect thero hos always been a very lively competition among them. Itis caleulnted that the line will bo over five miles In length, accompanted by 120 bands of music, tmnbracing tho finest musical organizations In the country. Ete- gant entertrinmonts have also been provided for the visitors in the way of banaucts, ox- cursfons, and soclal festivities, It may be sald literally that every hall, theatre, and hotel has been scenred for that week, in addition to atl which a ball will be given at the Exnosition Building that will ectipse any- thing of the kind ever known before in this country, The ontire building will be throwin open, carpeted and decorated In the most gorgeous manner, so that when filled with gayly capnrisoned Knights and ladies the sight will be a dazzling one. It is fort unate that this monster gathering Isto be held In Chiengo, for two reasons: first, with her unrivaled facilities In the way of housing and entertaining people she can easily necommolate them all; and, second, her citizens have that spirit of pride and en- terprise which would not rest contented un- til all previous affairs of this kind had be setin the shade, She will extend a hearty and hospitable weleomo to: the thousands who wilt come here.
