Misslssippl., of all States in tha Union, has had the most bitter experience of Gen. Grant as “0 strong man.” In the fearful election of 1875, when the Hinds County massacre and the -Vicksbury riots taught black men In that State that they hud no rights the National Government would protect, Gen. Grant was President.” To was ‘the strong man’? that left the blacks to the tender mereles of thelr oppressors, and under whose rule Goy. Ames was obliged to tteo the State before the expiration of lls term of office, . The Mississipp! Repubileans do not want another dose of the strong Government which Gen. Grant gave them, Aud, while they do not believe in the'nl- leged “strong-man” movement, they belleve just as little in the alleged conciliation polley. Whichever program is genuiny and which- ever spurlous, they are sutisfied not to try either, What they do want 13a Republican eanditate who ean be elected,—not one who, to satisfy a mere personal pride, would In- volve the whole party in ruin and give thom n “strong? Democratic President. ‘The result in ‘Tennessee swells the disaster, Delegates have been chosen, thongh not for- mally approved by the Convention, Tho Grant mon, according to the Associnted Press dispatch, clalin only 16 0ub of 24 delegates, whereas the State has heretofore been set down solid for the third term. It Is con- cected on all sides that the Tennesseo delega- tion will not be Instructed, So bad begins and worse remains behind. New Jersey, Delaware, and Maryland hold Conventions to-day, nd Michigan next week, and It is a moral certainty that alt will go for Blaine, ‘There ts no hopeful prospect for tho third term anywhere, Even If Itnots should be carrled and the district delegates tn- atructed,—which is wildly improbuble,—it Is diMeult to see where the votes still needed to nominate Gen, Grant enn possibly como from, Altogether, the outlook for the de- feat of the third-term consplracy, and con- sequently for the restoration of penco and harmony in the Republican party, ts brighter to-day than at any time since the holding of Don Cameron's packed Convention in Feb- ruary, ny FOUL PLAY. Fair play 1s quite as much a jowel as con- sistency. Fou! play is dishonorable oyen in dealing with an opponent, and with a friend it Is disgraceful to the Inst degree. The act of forclug the Cook County Convention pre- inaturely by the Grant faction of the Repub- lican party was o snap judgment taken against political assoeintes, The end sought by Grant, Bluine, and Washburne men respect ively is the same,—tho election of the candi- date who shall recelve n nomination to the Presidency at the hands of the National Re- publican Convention. Anything whichtends to excite bitterness In the party ranks makes the common purpose more dificult of accom- plishment. On Tuesday Jast the third-term partisans urged and induced the Republican County Committes to commit an act of in- justice against a large section of the Repub- Iiean party, Against the prayer and protest of eleven meinbers, twelve members of the Committes insisted upon a violation of an old snd time-honored custom of tha Re- publican party of this county, by holding the Convention to solect delegates to tho State Convention a full week earlier than usual, Tho reasons of this extraordinary action are plain: (1) It fs an attempt to head off the Washburne movement which first took form pn Tuesday ovening. (8) It is evidence that the third-term manngers be- leve thelr case stronger now than it will bo ience; aud therefore shows that they desfra to prevent the result likely to ensue upon more deliberation. Now, .in eutting off the opportunity for deliberation they willfully sacriilce the party interest to the personal interest of their candidate; hence their devotion to 9 particular cand!- date becomes treason to the Republican party. But the disreputable trick is an ac- complished fact, Thatit was premeditated is certain, slnco the commltteemen who were In the secret were ready with their judges of election, and coached to put them through the appointment process, And {tinust be presumed that tho minfority of the judges of primaries are toals of the third-term managers who will bo ready to carry out their pluns; and that these plans involve, fraud if necessary fs also pre- sumnable, since the manngers who consum- mated the trick of Tuesday must be entirely enpablo of performing a worse trick on Sat- urday next. Butn disreputable trick com- mitted against a vigilant and resolute oppo- sition never succeeds upon an appeal to the people. ‘Lhe masses of tho Republican party love fair play and hate fraud, The right of fair plny having been denied them, they will take care that fraud shall not pre- yall against them. The third-term managers have deliberately inviled suspicion. By seeking an unfair adyantage, by violat- ing an old parly custom, by forelng an early convention; when for all honest ptrposes a Inte convention would have been equally just to all factlons, they have given notice of a purpose that the pri- marles of next Saturday shall violate, uot reflect, tho will of the Republican voters of Cook County, g ‘We are aware that this is a very severe ar- raignment, but we defy anybody and overy- body to impeach its justice. The third-torm Inanagers of Ilinols stand convicted of a Bross attempt to cheat the Republicans of a county five times larger than any other county in tho State out of a falr expression of thelr opinion on the most important sub- ject that ever engages the attention of tho eltizen, A duo sense of the outrage sought to be put upon them onght to, und doubtless will, save the Blaine and Washburne Repub- Ieans of Cook County from becoming the victims of 9 base and causeluas treachery, ee Ir the gentlemen who wero appointed at the Tuesday night meeting to promote the Interests of Mr. Washburno at the Ropub- lican primaries next Saturday desire to rep. resent faithfully the people who are back of them in this movement, they will make com- mon cause with the Blaine men in running a single “opposition” ticket. Tho tirst ques- tlon that will come up before the Chicago Convention for definit settlement is whether or not the third-term {ssue shall be adopted or rejected by the Republican party, All the friends of the various candidates who are to come in conilict with this third-term {ssue should unlto primarily in the effort to ward off the common danger, 1f an independent Movement in behalf of Mr, Washburne should bo general throughout this city and county next Saturday it might result in such a division of the opponents of the third- term issue ag to enable the advocates thereof to elect tholr delegates in wards and districts where they .would otherwise utterly fail, There will boa third- term ticket In the ficld everywhere. There should be but a single opposition ticket eyery- where, In wards and towns whero the Blaine men are in @ majority of the opposi- tion the Wushburne men should join hands with them, Whero the Washburne men are in a majority the Blaine men should act with them. In all cases the understanding should bo that the ‘opposition’ delegates will sup port elther Blaine or Washbume, as subs¢- quent events may prove tobe most expedient. TRIBUNE: THURSDAY, MAY Certainly all friends of Mr. Washburne, howover warmly devoted to his cause, must recognize that tho only hope of his nonina- ton rests upon tho withdrhwal or rejection of Gen, Grant, as agalnat whom he Js not and will not boa candidate, «Wherever tha op- position to the third term'in Cook County fs dlylded, the third-term cause will gain an advantage which will be an obstacle in the way of tho success of Mr. Washburne, which willonly become possibly when Gen. Grant. is out of the way, ———— eee LOGAN AND WASHBURNE. The St. Louls Glohe-Democrat publishes a column of tile trash, dated at Chicnga, de nouneing Mr. EB. Washburne as a Judas and a betrayor of Grants Jt charges that while he has been professing to be an advo ente of Grants nomination he has been making a trade to defeat Grant in tho Ilinols Convention, and by an allinnca with the Blaine men to secure the Wynols delegation for himself, Here Is part of this screed, sent out from the Logan headquarters in this city: Mr, Washburne, a short time ago, on boin, pressed for n definit: answer, wrote over his own aignature that he was not a candidate for the Preeidency; that be would not bo ncanil- date, and that ho waa wart supporter of Gen, Grant, and would do all In his power towards tmuking Grint President. Searels hid he writ+ ten this before he met his honorable friend, Mr, Joseph Medi, of THe TRUE, and tn weecluded roont of THs THiBUNE bullding the conspiracy hnd ita birth. Mr. Medill was to support Mr Bhuine, Mr. Blaine, at the Inst moment, wis to throw his delegations over to Washburne under the advice of Mr. Medi, and tho combined feionds of Blaine and Washburue in Springfetd were to take tho State awiy from Grant, Grant without Minnis would be nobody. His pride would not allow hin to go tuto the Conyentlon after his own State hid: deserted hlin, Wash- burne would go into the Chicuro Convention with Tllnols. Ie he found that Rludno was in the lend be would generpusly~ retire in favor of the man from Maine. “If, on the other band, Washburne got a strong Western support, aud there weru signs tlint Blaine would ve dropped in favor of a now inan, Mr. Blaine would, with the anime disinterested generoaltyy withdraw in favor of Washburne, In elther event Grant would be beaten, Logan would be benten, Carpentor, Cameron, Conkling, and nll the other Stuiwarts, would Le benton, and Mr. Medill would have his revenge. Mr. Washburia still tnalsts that thoro isn mistake about tho whole thing, and that ho jy. 2 has wlwavs been, a warm supporter of Gen. Grant. He wilt be compelled to prove this, Before many days gildo by he will be compeiled to bead a Grant delegation from his own ward (tho Elghteenth) inthis city to the Springfield Convention, Ho managed to wriggle out of an fnvitation to bo present at tho big Grunt meeting by stating that be had a tecture to deliver somowhere {1 the State of indiana. Tho lecture scheme won't work uguin, Gon. Logan will bring every one of tho nulk-and-water brigade 10 tho scratch, ‘They must elthor be for Grant or against him, Ie fg determined, and tho Grant men of Chleago nro determined, to have no "ifs" and “ands” about this thing any longer. Gen, Logan must have learned this style of domineering Insolence from the old slave- holders when he trained under them aso Northern doughface and did their " dirty work.” The wholo extract Is 9 muss of un- niltfgated falsehood and mendacity, and is notenlculated to help the “boom” or tho would-be Boss of Illinols. Mr. Washburne entered into no’ contracts, bargains, com- pacts, arrangements, or widerstandings with the editor of ‘Tim Tipuny, or with Mr. Blaine or any other man, In the ovent Mr. Washburne shall be nominated by the Chica- go Convention, which can only be done with his consent after Gen, Grant censes to be o candidate, he will undoubtedly xecept the nomination, Gen. Logan will do the same, and be glad of the chance. Grant out of the way, he would make a rush to take his place and play the dark horse, and we make no ob- fectlon to it. If Grant withdraws, elther ‘Washburne or Logan will accept the nominn- tion, If thishe treachery to Grant, then bott aro In tho same boat. Tho fact undoubtedly Is, that Gen. Grant Js fully awaro that the support—patronizing support—of bis candidacy by Mr. Logan has been of great injury to him not only in this State, but in all parts of the country; and ho 4s also fully awaro that Mr. Washburna is not only a different kind of man from Logan, but that he is held'in tho highest es- teem by thousands who hold Logan and Cameron Jn abhorrence ns tho possible fut- ure grasping “friends” of the President. ‘To relieve himself to some’ extentof tho odium of “ Loganism,” Gen..Grant has in- vited Mr. Washburne to travel with him, as his personal and political friend, and as such he may aecompany the General through the State. Loganism and Washburneism aro two distinct and {rreconellable elements. They cannot assimilate, Gen. Grant’s friendahip for Washburne is practically a repudiation of Logna, and hence the Logan bureau’s violent denunclatton of Washburno as a traftor,” a “double-faced consplra- tor,” and other vile things, We haveno doubt that Gen, Grant would bo rejoiced it the people of Illinois and of tho country would understand that his polftical relations areof the Washburne and not of the Logan character, and hence this public companion- ship on the eve of the Convention with Washburne In all the close intimacy of warm personal and political friendship. Hence, also, as a result, the fury of the Logan bureau and Its attempts to forco Gon, Grant to discard Washburne as a ‘traltor,” As this article of the @tobe-Democrat says, tho recognition and triumph of Washburne a a friend of Grant means the “defeatof Logan.” It cortainly means that, and just now that !s the ond evidently sought. _—————— THE REVOLT IN PENNBYLVANIA, Nothing short of brazen impudenco will hereafter enable the third-term experts to count fifty-elght votes for Grant from Ponn- sylvanin. whon they make up thoir table of Grant's chances for the nomination.

Ho makes a trifling mistake of six years In the matter of Uncle Sammy's age, but that Is uniinportant, considering tho fnet of Mr. Tiden’s remarkable vigor, ‘Mr. Moller visits Mr. Tilden often, He culled upon the Snge last week Wednesday, and found him “standing up” talking ton gentleman, In regard to his standing capacity Mr. Moller snys: “Zassure you” (to the interviewer) “he can stand up just ns easily as you ang [ ean.” Thore being a strong presumption in favor of the World reporter's physical strength It follows that Mr. ‘Tilden can “stand up” just as ecnslly asthe aver- age human, This fg a. gratifying clr- cumstance, because In the event of his election to tho Presidency he would be able to be sworn into office standing, In accordance with the custom of tho country. But can Mr. Tilden ‘sit down” just ns easily ag any nan can? Mr. Tilden's legs are prob- ably ina better state of preservation than his arms, but would they bear tho strain of standing during an entire term of for years in the White House? Wo doubt it, and de- mand ‘to know of Mr. Moller whether his friend the Sago can sit down just as ensily as any mancan; and whether In fact he can ait down at all. ‘To the question, “Is Mr. Tilden a stont, hearty man?? Mr. Moller responded promptly, “Just right.” ‘Then tho follow- inguintoresting colloquy occurred. “How does ho walk?” queried the re- porter, “Walk? oxolnimed Mr. Moller, in a kind of cestasy, rubbing his hands; “he walks very erectand classic. He walks like a great statesman,” “How docs a great statesman walk, Mr. Mollor?? “How?” responded Mr. Moller; “ why, just as Mr, Tilden walks!” ‘This description of Mr. Tilden’s manner of walking,—" very erect and classic,?—taken in conneetion with the failure to describe his manner of sitting down, indecd the neglect to say whether ho can sit down ut all, elther classically or vulgarly, leads to tho gravest apprehensions on this branch of the subject. ‘We call to mind the steam-man lately on ex- hibition In this city, who could walk “vory ereét and classic,” who could turn about with a sharp jork and walk back, “ very erect and classic,” to the place of starting, but who could not for his life sit down In elthorclassie or vulgar style,—could not sit down at alll How does Mr, Moller know that, when Mfr. Tilden walks, “ very erect and classic,” he is not in fact propelled by atenin ? Mr. Moller Insists that the reason of Mr. ‘Tilden’y talking In whisper fs not tho loss of his voice, but on account of. his “tine ear.” Ho says that persons. who henr well always speak in a low tone, Mr. Moller denies, with some heat, that Mr. Tildon's left eye Is closed, hermetivally sealed, as it wero, Ho says that “ It Is really only partly closed”; that “it 1s of no consequence’; that “many persons are troubled in the same way,” ete, According to Mr, Moller, {t is of very little consequence what man has or has not in the front of his head, provided tho back of his head ts well developed, Haesnys “Tilden has moro bratns in the back of his head than most men,” and that this fact enables him to cling tenaciously to an idea, and that the iden entrapped in the back of his head “novor files away from-him.? But if by accident the idea should escape the vigilant esplonuge of his back bralu, lt would be sure, in tho opinion of Mollor, to be arrested In its fight by lils peculiarly formed Roman nose, which is “well formed” and “Indicates great powers of abstraction.” Moller wouldn't tell what he meant by “powers of; abstrac- tion.” Whence it is concluded that Tilden imparted the secret to him In confidence, ‘To the question, “Is Mr, Tilden's arm palsied 2” Mr. Moller replicd frankly, * I.am sorry to say that his left arm has beon palsted for some time.” “But,” added Mr, Moller, “that's of no consequence, as you know the left arm {s yery little brought Into uso by anybody, anyway,’” ‘The interviewer evidently hoped to throw Moller off his guard by plumplng the follaw- ing question at him abruptly: ‘ Does any- ons help him (Tilden) to eat his dinner? But Moller was not to bo surprised, With- outa moment's hesitation ha replied: Not alwaya.” And then he explained: “An excellont widow who formerly was in my employ cuts his meat for him, Ye can hardly use the arm, you sve, atallatdinner,” Then the lntorviowor tried agaln to trap the wary Moller with the question: “Is t not harder to reln tn a horse with the left hand’ than to handle a fork ?”, But Mr. Tilden’s old friend was quite ready, with this explanation: “Why, you seo, he might be able todraw his arm through the bridle jn a horizontat direction, and yet be unable. to raise food with a fork to his mouth.” Mr. Moller puts great stress upon the polnt that Mr, Tilden can ride, which tends to confirm the truth of our theory that he cannot walk except as he fs propelled by steam. He'can “standup" as straight as anybody, but when he moyes some extrinsic power must bo apylicd, When ho walks this power Is steam; when ho rides {t ts the horse Blackstone. When Uncle Sammy trudges across the ronom,— very erect and classic,’—moved by steam, or rides of on Blackstone, Mr. Moller gazes lovingly nl the back of his hend and says: “1 know theoro is something nit"; and when requested to state “what he thinks fs in It,’ he replies promptly: “Brain—bralns, of course, He ts no most remarkable: man!’ Mr. Moller ad- mits that Mr. THdon “has a peeullar way about him’ which might convey to strangers the impression that “he ts as good as dead. But, bless you! Mr. Moller knows. better, When he secs him “stand up” as easily as anybody, or walk stralehtacross the room as erect ng the steam-man, or riding down atreet with his palsied arm drawn horizon: fally through the bridle rein, lie knows that lis hero is not dead by any manner of menns; and he Is happy to tell the country so, “There Is a touch of pathos in. the concluding paragraph of the interview, where Mr.’ Moller refers to’ Mr. ‘Tilden’s liabit of staying alone fn’ tho even: ing. Ho’ says: “Tle (Tilden) stays by him-, self nll the evening, It Is hard for him to trust anybody sineo his nearcat relntives proved so falthless in recelving the cipher dispatches, He won't trust anybody now." No doubt Pelton’s duplicity nenrly broke his goo ud unclo’s heart. When we think of it wo feel impelled to hunt for Pelton, selzo him, carry him to the top of n very high tow- er, and throw him off, But, then, Mr. ‘Til- den, i an excess of generosity, forgave the poor boy for attempting to steal Electoral votes, on the ground that he Inew others were trying to steal the samy votes, and why should we be so inexorably just as to wish to tllng Pelton from the top of a tall tower? Tre enthusiasm which is felt Cor Blaine in Pennsylvania Is not of recent growth, It will be remembered that Don’ Cameron had the utmost diflenity in holding his delega- tlon together at the Ciriclunatt Convention in 1876 In favor of a Pennsylvanian man (fart ranft) who had personally a strong hold upon hisown party In his own State, and that, when the break came, thirty of tho fifty-elght delegates went over to Blaine, Ind these delegates insisted from the first in voting according to their indlyldual prefor- ences and the desires of their inmediate constituencies, Blaine would have been nom- inated on the second ballot. Senator Cam- cron will find it a still harder task to keep the delegation together in the cause, of a third term, which a Ropul- Mean State Convention in Pennsylvanian ones condemned In uneaqtivocal language, and to the injury of n candidate who has the position ofa “favorit son” in that State, Tho people of Pennsylyanin have a Stato pride in Blaine beeauso he was born and ed- ucated there, and has always matntained the closest relations with the people among whom his youth and early manhood were passed. All Pennsylvanians are proud of the Plumed Knight as a gifted son of thelr State. Chis natural attachment to Blaine, supplemented by the strong opposition tothe third-term movement in Pennsylvania, fully necounts for the Iarge and growing defec- tlon from the Cameron dictution,—n defec- tlon so enrnest and formidable that Camoron himself may not {cel disposed to undertake the desperate task of whipping it into obedi- ence. ‘The Pennsylvania delegates who have determined and who shall yet deter- mine to obey the Instructions of their own constituents Instend of those of tho Cameron clique will not walt as thoy did in 1876 until the last moment befora ap pealing to the National Convention for the privilege of exercising their tights.
