In Cook County the thtrd-term- ors, being badly licked at tho primarics, un- dertook to frighten tho Bintno and Wash- burne men out of halt or third of the dele- gatton by bolting and bulldozing; but their gamo did not work ag well ns auticipated, and now thelr organ is whining that, in counties where the third-termers hind cons trol, they imngnanimously gave the antie n part of tho delegntes, and in support of this barefneed falschood cliea two counties McLean and Macoup!n,—butnegicets tostate that cach of those counties has a candidate fora placa on the State ticket, nnd: the anti- Grant delegates given thereln were at the In- stanco of tho backors of thoso candidates asa matter of policy. But in regard to McLean, this Is theeditorial comment madeby Logtn's organ the day after tho Convention washold: ‘Tho most aminhle mon in the country aro our good friendain MoLean County, With a large out-and-out mujority for Grant in tholrConven- ton pestering, they conceded, “for harmony," one-half tho delegates to Blaine, 80 the dete. gation stands eight for Grant and efght for Wlaine, Itis ovldent that the majority wero olther very tender-hearted or were decidedly outgeneraicd, ‘Tho 1-0. didn’tbetteve then in “harmony” ag much as it does now. It was then In favor of having the majority gobble everything It could get, It distinctly advised such n course {n future County Conventions, and denounced the “liarmony” program. How atiferently it advises now when Its faction Is in the mi- nority, Itis well understood that the action of these two Conventions was at tho timo censured both by the 1-0, and by the Third "Term Bureau in this city; and that word was speedily sent ont to atl Conventions to put none but third-termers on guard and in- struct them solidly when the Grant delegates were ina ninjority, and ‘to Insist on propor tlonate representation when they were In the, minority. How beautifully this double edged plan worked may be seen by an ex- amination of the returns by counties, In Adams tho antlGrant forces were In o large majority, yet thoy conceded two dele- gates out of twelve to'Grant. In Bureau Blalne had a majority of the Convention, but his followers gave Grant four out of nine delegates,—nearly half, In Champaign the Blaine mon took nine delegates, but conecded one erch to Grant and Washburne, 3 In Edgar tho Btnine men took four dele- gates, but give Grant three, " In Fulton, where the Binine men had o large working majority, they conceded fou delegates o ut of ten to Grant, as In Hancock seven Blaine delegates wore elected, but one was given to Grant and one to Washburne, In Henry, the Bintne men, having a large -Attornoy of majority, “generously divided the delega-~ tlon equally,” giving ench candidate five. In Iroquols it was Blnthe, six; Grant, three, In Kone, Bluine, eight; Grant, five. In Kankakee, the opposition, though act- ually inn majority, was chiseled out of four of the seven delegates by tricky management. {Wo have tho word of one of the Grant déle- gates for tis.) : In Livingston Blalne had a handsome ma- jority, but hig friends gave one delegate to Grant aud one to Washburne, outof a total of nine, . In Sangamon Blaine’s supporters again yielded five out of twelve delegates to Grant; in Warren two ont of seven dolegntes wera disposed of in tho same way, and in number- less counties having from two to fivo déle- gates a faly apportionment was made, It was not until the desperate game of the Grant forees begun to appear that the Blaine managers began to counteract it by choosing sotld delegations tn Peorin, Ogle, and one or two other counties, On tho lowest caleula- tion the anti-Grant men in counties in which thoy had o majority were gouged out of sevonty-live to 100 delegates by the bullying waysof the machine managers, while the Intter, when they had the majority, would not concedeanything for “ harmony,” or any othar purpose, Now look at the practice of the other alde, whore the Grant mon secured a majority of the Convention, Christlan sends six Grant delegates. (solld); Do Witt, four delegates (solid) ; Douglas, four delegntes (solid); Du Page, five delegates (solid); Jove Daviess, seven (sulld) ; Macon, eight (ditto) ; Morgan, elght (solid); Randolph, aoven; Schuyler, four; Shelby, flve,—all for Grant. But the nost flagrant cases are In the largest coun- ties of the State outside of Cook, Tn Le Saito it ts very doubtful whether tho third-turmers were in a majority atall. There are contlicting reports nbout this. But itis undoubtedly true that the third-term man- aigers carried things with a high hand, dup Ing tho opposition into choosing Grant men, and rushing through a vote of Instructions on tho sixteen delegates when most of the farmer-delegates had gone home, 4 oe In Winnebago the vote in County Con- ventlon for the delegate ticket was close. Yet tho minority had no representation and a resolution of Instructions on cloven dele- entes was passed, as In Will the yoto in Convention was about three-fifths Grant. Thé solid delogation of twelvo was glyen to Grant and instructed, The £-0, further remarks: Tt {snot oxpooted, kowover, that small coun- ties will apportion their dologates nocording.to rules. That fe not the custom, and custom makus the law. In chisago. howover, it ia tho mein, the rulo, well ostablishod through years of usugo, Yes; oud that custom was not violated. Tho delegates wore appointed by Senatorial districts, a President and a Secrotary belng chogen for onch, and tho’ delegates elected by each, The third-termors fenred that this would not be done, and go bolted. They should haye walted until It was not done bo- foro they complained or bolted, Nobody was guthorized to say what the Convention would do or not do boforo Itacted, Until the Convention had done something tho third-termers had no grievance. enco thelr present case 1s as filmsy as ft Is pitvous, ‘Thoy throw thomsclves out of court, and how complain beonuge they were not treated ag $f they had been In court. A more des- porate and inequitable contest was never’ mado than that which they propose to ralso in Springtleld,. It has no basis in law, Justice, or morals, It 1a eimply an attemptto rule ® majority by o minority, 8 rule to which tho third-termers have not sub: mitted fu any other county of ‘the Stato, ant to which the antl-third-term Republicans ju this county nover will submit, es Tue London Times of April 9 contains o four-page supplement devpted toa statemont of tho results of the recent election. ‘Two of dts pages are maps showlug the results by coune tlesand boroughs, In which “The Thunderer” has evidently been copying the enterprise of the American papers. Its summary contains many interesting features. It appears that the House of Commons has recelyed u greater will not bo asked to du oxcopt to protect itself | ufuslun of new members than at any tine blnce 1807, In 1863 theruf were returned 223 how members, and ty foe fies while the huinber this year Is 230, Of Whiom about two- thirds are Liberals and Home-Rulers.

In oing,covist}tuoney, tlint of South Norfolk, tho Liberatrandidate owes tile sent to ‘oho voto alone, “Taken altogether, however, the Libera? majorities appear to bo of a tolerably substantial char- acter, averaging as thoy do 630 votes.” “The Irish representation Is diyided into five see- tions, the Liberals and Conservatives proper, the Iome-Rulers, the followers of Mr. Pare nell (thirty in number), and the Repeaters, Tho membership of the House according to the tables In the Times Is as follows: Lib- erals, $55; Conservatives, 231; Home-Rulers, 0; Liberal Conservatives, 3; Consorvatlye Home-Ruler, 1; Radicnl, 1 (Mr. Bradlaugh). THE RIGHTS OF BOLTERS, The onty striking utterance In the meeting held by the third-term bolters at the Palmer House was Mr. Storrs’ charnctorization of bolters. ‘They wero. variously described as “chronic political revolvers,” “chronic po- litleal renegades,” “political dyspeptics,” “ Republican hysterics,” and the men who get “under tho band-wagoh in a storm. For gome reason or other the third-term bolt- ers listened placidly to this denunciation to tholr faces as snenis anil traitors, No ono present retorted that Storrs himself was do- seribing his own attitude in the pending struggle. Illy speech in this respect wasn rathér imptdent, but alfogether pertinent, rebuke of the crowd he addressed, Every man who had been a delegate to tho Cook County Convention, who had seceded from that Convention nnd who took part in tho Palmer House meeting, was a bolter. If Storrs’ deseription of the bolter was cor- rect, -then it applied to every man of those to whom ho was talking, If bolting is helnous political . crlme, us Storra and other “Stalwarts” havo contended for years, then the third-termers at the Palmer House were political criml- unis. If bolters have no rights which a political purty ought to respect, then the third-term bolters voluntarily and deliber- ately surrendered all future claim upon the Repubiiéan party in this county and State. If every man “ ought to be damned” who re- fuses to abide by a unit role,—as the third- term managers and newspapers have insisted all slong,—thon tho Palmer Houso bolters abandoneil their hope of political snivation when thoy seceded trom tho regular Conven- tion. : Af the term “ bolter ” ling not lost its orlgi- nal menning, then every member of a pollt-. fen! party, who, being one of a minority, refuses to abide bythe will of the majority, Isaboltor, The third-term bolt in this city is more than ordinartly outrageous beenuse it represented less than one-third of the Con- vention; because it-bolted against the two- thirds majority acting in accordance with Invarinble practices'and because it had de termined to bolt, before it went tuto Conyen- tlon, A ‘Tho Cook County third-torm Lolters lave absolutely no groustl’ to ‘stand: ‘upon at Springfield, Tho Cook County Convention was called to order by the Chalrinat of the County Central Commiltes in due form. Une delegate nom- Inated Mr. Etliott Anthony as Temporary Chairman, and another delegnte seconded. the motion. This was also in regular form and necording to precedent, as the proceed- Ings of the prevlous County Conventions uni- formly attest. Mr, ‘Elliott Anthony was elected Temporary Chairman by an over- whelming majority yute, and proceeded to the platform to discharge the duties of tho position, Tho Convention was thus organ- lzed as Cook County Conventions are always organized, The third-termers bolted be- causa the Chairman of the County Central Committe > (Singer) was not permitted to appoint the Temporary Chalr- man in opposition. to the will of the Conven- tlon—n usurpation never before attempted ina Republican convention of this county. Tho rule and the practice were clenrly polnted out to Singer, but he persisted In order to prepare tho way for the bolt that the third termers had provionsty agreed upon, J. 1. Clough, who joined in tha bolt, ndinitted that when he was Chairman of the County Com- mittes ho had not exurelyed the power elaiined by Singer, Judge Couch, who had once been Chairman of the Committee, told the Convention that he had never sought to name the Temporary Chairman, Mr, Ellott Anthony told the consplrators that Sluger’s elnim was preposterous.in the face of nll pre- vious practice, The bolters know then ns well a3 they know now, that the Chatrman of tho County Committee had no right to namo the Toinporary Chairman against the will of thu Convention, ‘They know that tho pretext was neha andatie. Thoy bolted beéausa they had previously determined to bolt, and thoy had determined to bolt because thoy wero disastrously beaten at the primaries and had lost tho game, ‘ When tho bolt occurred, nelthor Singer nor anybody olse thought of “adjourning” the Convention, ‘That wags an afterthought, trumped up aa tho basis of a contest, OF course Singer, who was: not 0 delegate to the Convention, would hava hud no carthly right to adjourn tho Conyentton, had he attempted todo so, Nordidany jof the bolting third- term delogntes possess this right. But no effort to adjourn the Convention was made by anybody, Dick Tuthi! called upon. “all in favor of Gon. Ulysses'Graut for President to follow me from the hall.” ‘Then the bolt was made, Some time after Singor had lett the hall with the boltcrs he returned and mounted the platform and cried out: “Aly Grant delegutes witt rect immediately at-| the Palmer House.” It-was avowedly a bolt of tho Grant delegates. Adjourningnt of the Convention was not suggested, Tf it had been, none but Grant men wero ‘Nivited or instructed to “adjourn? ae Nothing can be clearer than the fact that the third-term bolters lind nocouse to socedy from theConvention. Whenithey did so they forfeited all their party rights. That ts the stalwart rule for the treatment of boltéra, Tue carrylng of Ni l¢ for Binino on Tuesday ,was a hard “blew on tho third- tormers, ns they had couiteg with the great- eat confidence om that -State, Senators Sharon and Jones were undbrstoud to varry the State in tholr pockots, nnd could deliver it to Grant in the Chicago Codlvention,.

All the States but six have now appointed thelr delegates to the Chiengo Convention, and It Js n startling fact for the third-termers that Grant hos not carried the Convention of n ringle Republican State but ono—Penn- sylyaning—and that by Cameron’s trickery nnd bulldozing, Whit kind of aspontaneous boom Is that? ences Ir tho boltors inaken claim for n propor- Uonate represontation in the Springfleld Con- vention they will ba met by several objections, each ono of whieli will be conclusive against thent. In the firat place, any such claim will be an admisston that they bolted. from the regular Convention. Thoy will bo told that they onght to have remained and reted with tho party If they wanted thelr proportionate representation, Denth-bed -repentance will notavall In this ease, In tho second place, if they “hssert that they believed they would not recolve thetr proportiotinte representa- tion, the reply will! bo that if they had ro- mained in ‘the “pitrty Convention any griev- ance would have récelved consiieratlon, but that they ennnot iiow sot up o possible erlovance asa claim upon the State Conven- tton of a party from which thoy have bolted. If thoy insist that thoy have been deprived of represontation, the anawer will bo that thoy wore not in their seats to vote when tho roll of wards and towns was called, They had no representation fn the Conk County Convention; hence.they are entitled to nono in the Ilinols State Conven- tion. Finally, if the hypothetical ease be ad- mitted that they would have been given no representation had they remained In tholr seats, such an admission will only prove that they were hopelesly in tho minority, and that the action of the Conyentlon would have been the same If thoy lind not bolted. Con- sequontly this is notthe basis for any change in the Cook County delegation, If they whine that tho small third-term sontiment of Cook County (which was in & mafority in only ona Senatorial district) will be unrep- resented In the State Convention, the answer will bo that the Iarge anti-third-term senti- ment In many other counties of the State hag been disfranchised by o third-term majority without causing a bolt, . There is not n plink—not a straw—for the third-term bolters to clutch at, They are men who havo been going about with a scourge In one hand and a club in the other towhip and knock down bolters wherever found, They are now “holst by thelrown petard.”” If the third-term bolters, consclous that. thoy have no rights in the Springfield Con- vention, still! count upon n possible third- term majority outside of Cook County to ad- nif them, or a part of thom, they are sowing the wind only to ronp the whirlwind, Nota single Cook County. bulter can bo adinitted into tho Springfleld Convention without transferring the whole question to the No- tlonnl Convention, to which the anti-third- tern sentiment of this State, backed up by an outraged party in which bolters are given rights over regulars, will appeal with Irre- atstible foree, If n single ‘Cook County bolter be admitted to the Springtleld Conven- Uon, In deflance of all right and precedent, the seramble for State ofices may as well cense, for the prospect for election witl be too dim to bo attractive. In tho forcible Inn- guage of little Mne, the St. Louls third- termer, ‘There will be hell to pay!” Ir tho people of Cook County were to lodge an indigtment agalnst the third-term secessionist, It would principally specify cownrdice, wenkuess,, and want of good sense, That they knew they lad no case was evident from thelr running away. . Thoy ran before a shot wns fired, threw down their arms, and skulked away, Thoy quit the hall before they had a grievance, except that they were not allowed to vivlate- tho ordinary usnges of conventions, and they lbft behind them in thelr hot haste thelr seats, tholr case, aud their cradontials, and Jt fs 0 little remarkablo that they did not leove their huts and coats, Worst of all, they left thelr casa there, without- 0 single exception upon which they can tako an nppenl to the higher court. ‘Their flight was not only an Insiance of cowardice but of the want of ordinary sense, Ilad they re- mained in the Convention and fought: the majority tooth and nall to the end upon every point, they would havo been deserving of some sympathy, and might Nave enlisted that admiration which a courageous minority alinost always secitres for itself, They would then have been able to take thelr case up to the higher court on exceptions with somo show of dignity and senso; but in bolting from tho Convontlon before they had a arioy- anee thoy deliberately abandoned their ease before it was culled, Thoy left with out even -tho protext of na cause for It; consequently thoy. forfelted every tight they lind, though ,the Convention kept thelr seats for thom. They conse. quently placed themselves in a position whore they cannot make a legal appeal; or, if they make’ an appeal, the Stato Convention fs not bound to pay nny. at- tention to it Asn mattor of fact, they wore not in the Convention nt all, and thoy lave nothing to show that they were gver menibers of it or elected to ft! There Is no fenture of thelr cnse which the State Con- vention can even conatdor without the sneri- flee ofits diguity. ‘Their action In regard to the Farwoll Hall Convention was os much of a farce ag that In regard to the Palmer «1 Convention was a fraud, ‘Tux mon suggosted by Mr, Singor for Tompo- rary Chairman of the Convention was George Btrackmuan, « Washburn dotogate, and whowas afterward sent by the mob Convantion ns one burno's representatives to Spring~ Logan, aud Dan Shopard would make this confession sa publlely, .Jt seems, then, by thelr own admission, through thelr organ, that the Grant faction bolted from the Con- vention because it would not let Singer, of the County Contra} Comittee (and ho not a member of the Coifvention), appoint a par tleular Washburne inan as Tomporary Chalr- man} Does.
