D. UamKtion, Chairinan, Tuomas B. Keoait, Ber wrolary, ‘The call deslynates Chicago and Wednes- day, June 2, as the placo and time for hold- Ing the National Convention, Itwill scarcely be denied that, If ® convention were to be held in St. Louls on Thursday, June 3 sucha body would have not the shadow of a claim to be known as the Republican Nutional Convene tlon, nor to represent the Republican party In the cholce of Presidential candidates. It thts Is true, then it ls equally true that allthe other requirements of the call must be apeoitically observed In the organizatlon of tho Convention, Jt would not be the Hepub- Mean National Convention, for Instance, if a nimber of gentlemen from the various States were to mect In a body, irrespective of Congressional districts and tho Territories; for the langunge of the call Is expllelt on this point ns well ns to time and places Hopublicans and all #ho will coliperate with thom In supporting tho nomiueca of the party aret la choose two delegates from cach Con= artonad district, and four at large from eauh tute, two from eneh Territory, and two front tho District of Columbia, to represent thom In the Convention.” "This language ls unusually clear and un- equivocal. It asks distinctly that two dele- Rates be selected from each Congressional district throughout the country, It doesnot delegate that choles In-any Instance te a Stato Convention, or Stats Committee, or State Boss, In Massaclusetts the district delegates. wero not chosen at the same time nor. In the sane place, but independently of tho State Convention and of each other. In addition to the two delegates which ench. Congressional district !s invited to send to the Natlonal Convention, each State Is au thorized to send four delegates-atlarge, and each Territory to send two delegates. Under the terns of the call, it would be Just as reas sonable to contend that the Territory of Dako- ta may appolnt the district delegutes of New York as that the State Convention of Illnois asa body has the right to appalnt the dele- gates for the Congressional districts of this State where the districts have exercised this authority, Inelther case there woullven flagrant violatton of the right, recognized and preseribed by the cuil, of each Congres- slonal district to nppuint two delegntes, ‘This 1s the shape in which the Illinois case will go before the National Convention. It wil be decided upon tho rule tnld down in the call which we have quoted, Lhe bogus Grant delegates from thls State, seeking to misrepresent districts that did not select them nor appoint them, will not be per mitted to {Influence the decision by votes to which they ara not entitled. The Boston Journal, one of tho oldest and best Republican newspapers in the Union, quotes the language of the call for the Na- tonal Convention, and then comments as follows upon the Uilnols contest: If two delegates are to bo chosen from ench Congressionul district, why are to choose thent if not the Republicans residing and voting In the several districts? If State Conventions wero ex~ octad to choose the delegates the call would ave atnted, in oxpllcit torms, that State Con- ventions sil choose a number of delegutes equal to twice the number of Senators and itup- resentatives which they havein Congress. ‘Tho system of representation was mnude to correspond: to that of the State in Congress, by which tho yolee of tho Stute at large fs expressed by the Senntorial delegates and the sentiment of see- {ions by tho delegates from Congressionnl dis- tricts.” The Illinots Convention, led by Gen. Logan, could just ns well nssuine’ to nominate Hepresentutl ves to Congress a4 to choose tho Fanreacutallves of districts to the Natlonal Con- vention. ‘The untl-Grant delegntes constituted a majore Ityof the delegations, representing ten Con- gressionn! districts, Thoy buye very properly chosen delegates representing the sentiment of their constituents to represent them in the Na- tonal Convention, These delegates owe it to tho Republican party to present thelr elatms in the Nutfonal Conyention, Tho theory of tho fuir representation of the voters of a district cunnot be set aside or fnored by tho Repub- Heant National Convention, Whilo yet Gen. Login was a pro-slavery Democratic leader, the Republican purty wus organized ax tho purty of freodom and Justice, Ita first demand was for free speech and free notion, It domuands. to- day for every eltizen the right to voto us be choows, and tho right to have that yoto counted... When Gen, Logun substitutes the regularly-elected delegates of Cook County with men who ore not elcoted, when be turns & minority Into a majority by Alling 1 convention with persons who do not represent constituents, when he denies to more than half of the Con- igresatonat districts of tho third Staite in tho ninn thelr right to aclect their own delegatos to the National Convention, he tramples tnder- fool the fundamental princtplea of the Republican parly. There is every reason to bolieve that the boss villainy will be disavowed and disal- Towed, and that Republican voters through- ont tho Nation will not be compelled to abandon their party ng the only remedy against aseault and fraud when committed in the naune of the party. THE DOUBLE FRAUD IN THE ILLINOIS CONVENTION, A polltieal party is 9 voluntary associn- tlon of citizens who entertaln Identical or similar views as to public policy, and who act together so long as thelr yiews remuin unchanged, and so long ag thoir organization is managed and governed by the princlples of justice and fairness .There is nothing compulsory about such an association, elther asto ity control or its membership, Unlike a State or a municipal organization, a polit- feal party has no laws punishing ehicanery, atufling Its primaries, overrenching, confi- dence games, and the other offenses that may be perpetrated agulust It On the othor band, the political party has no Jaws punish- ing ng trengonuble any refusal to nequiesce In an injustice or outrage that may be per- petrated In Its naine, Open revolt agninst usurpation or fraud Is the only remedy for those who aro tho victims of partisan ma- chine oppression, but fortunately it Is a remedy to which no penalty {s attached In thecase of men who are not oficescekors. Hence no party can hops to retain the ale leglance of falr-minded and honorable men when it sanctions or submits too palpable villainy, . Tho seizure of tho Iillnols State Conven- tlon by the Grant minority was a villainy, and the Republean party cannot approve or condone that villainy without risking the defection of tho urge eiass who resent it. ‘The struggle between the Presidential can- didates In this Stato was bitter and unegual from the first, ‘The third-termers had the atlvantage of controlling the machine organ- {zntion of the party. ‘The State Central Committee and most of the County Central Comuittees were In thelr hands, ‘The office- holding class was whipped Inte thelr service by the “ Boss” dispenser of Government patronage. ‘They alo had the active ald and sympathy of the Democrats throughout the State. ‘The Democratic districts were counted upon In all instances to send third-term delegates to the Springtleld Convention, Various tricks were resorted to in order to control the primaries and thé Yocal conventions. Iu spite of these ad- vantages, the Republlean sentlinent, hostilato. a violation of tho antl-third-term preeedent and to the crowd of machine pollticlans rep- resenting tho Interests of the third-term enn- didute, was found to bo so overwhelming that a majority of auti-third-torm delegates Wer sent to Springtield. «As Boon ns the Grant managers becaine sat- istied that tho struggle hud resulted in thelr defeat a bolt was organized tn Cook County a4 0 Incas for overcoming the majority, If the Cuok County bolt had not furnisheda aufilcient number of contestants, similar bolts would probably have been ordered In othor counties, From this polnt the “Boss” rode roughshod over tho majority of the Republicun party in thts State. The regular delegation from Cook County was denied admission to the State Con- vention, ‘The duleyutes from four Sena- torlal districts in this county were not per- iiitted to vote after all contest had been abandoned In thelr case, A fraudulent Grant mnajority was thus obtulned for the preliml- hary organizatton which subsequeutly estab- lished a permanent bogus Grant majority by the admission of holters who bad no clulm, elther techuical or equitable, to seats in the Convention, When this preliminary fraud had been successfully imposed upon the peaple, a sec ond fraud was perpetrated by disfranchtsing the ten unt!-Grant districts of the State alto- gether, and appolnting forty-two Grant dele gates to misrepresent a Stato in which 9 wa- Jority of tho party had dectared ngninst Grant asa third-torm candidate. There are two clreumstances which {t ts important to note at this polut. ‘The first is, that the anttGrant men in tho State had never contemplated using thelr majority to disfranchise any Congressional districts that might be carried for Grant. They Intended, with their majority, to cleet the four dele- gates from the State-at-lnrge, and to leavo to. each district tho right, ns defined by party usage andthe rule of fairness, to ap- potut its own dolegates to the National Con- vention In obedience to the direction of its individual majority, The second elreum- stance ts, that, pending the struggle before tho people, the Grant managers never avowed nor admitted that they would try to use a inajority In the State Convention to stifle the voice of the antl-Grant districta, Hnd such an abuse of power been In issue the third- term movement would have been dofented at tho primaries oven more decidedly than act- ually occurred, Thus a double fraud has been put upon the Republicans ot IiNnols Inthe name of the party,—first, the seizure of the State Con- vention by n minority, and, secondly, the disfranch{isement of the distrlets which had uncontestedly declared against the third- teem candidate, Tho National Conyention which is:to bo hekl in this elty a week from to-day 1s the court of final resort, so furans the party Js concerned, Ten of the Ilinols districts, in Which there are anti-Grant inajorities, have taken an appeal to this tribunal, ‘They claim that, if they be compelled to submit to the villainy of minority dictation so far as tho four delegates-nt-large nre concerned, In order to matntain the semblance of party harmony, there is no rule, no precedent, and no justice In the imposition of Grant delegates upon ten anti-Grant districts in this State. They will ask the National Convention to protect them against this greatwrong, Thus the question will become not merely local to IMnols, but of National bearing. It will be in the power of the Natlonal Convention to set aside the Ilinols villainy, and thus re- Neve the Repnbllcan party of all responsibil Ity therefor. If it fail to doso the IllInois fraud may determing the Presidential nomi- nation, and the resentment will then spread throughout the country. THE GRANT BOLT IN LOUISIANA, The third-term boom received another serlous set-back in Lotisiann on Monday. ‘There was ns doleful a lack of “spontanc- ity” in that State as there was in Illinois. When the Grant managers tn Louisiana found they could not. grab the entire delegn- tion from that State they bolted. ‘That was cliarncteristic. ‘Tho third-term boomers havo shown themselves to be bolters wherever they are beaten, The example was set in Cook County. The bolt in Cook County was ordered by the managers of the third-term movement, and it is fair to presume the bolt- ers in Louisiana likewlso acted under the same direction, ‘That there was no provoca- tion for a bolt in either cnso is evident from the fact that the pretext in Loulsiana was just the opposit of the pretext In Cook Coun- ty. In Cook County the Grant men bolted ostensibly because the Chairman of the Cen- tral Committeo was not allowed to name the Temporary Chairman of the Convention. In Loulslana the Grant men bolted ostensibly. because the Chairman of the Central. Com- mittee was allowed to name the Temporary Chairman of the Conyontlon. ‘The real reason of. the bolt in both cnses was because the third-term boomers were beaten. ‘The difference between the third-term par- tisans and thelr opponents was well illustra- ted by the Louisiann bolt, The regular Con- vention had an antl-Grant minjority of, per- haps, ten to ono after a number of the Grant- {tes had gone out, Nevertholess, this ma- jority ablded by a previous agreement, and a fair representation of tho sentl- ment expressed nt the primaries, by elving, Grant seven delegates, Sher- wan seven, and Blaine two. ‘The Grant bolters proceeded to organize a Convention with men who had not been elected at the primaries, just ng they dic here, and then ap- polnted aiateon Grant delegates to the Na- tonal Convention,—the entire delegation of the State, ‘This was exactly characteristlo and tn lnitatlon of the Logan tactics. in Cook County, The “Boss” secured control of the Stato Convention with tho ald of nine- ty-two bolters, and then grabbed the entire State delegation to the National Convention, Ifthe men who are managing tho third-term. moyeinent suppose that the National Con- yention is to be bambuozled by bolters, and frauds, and scoundrels, they must have a contemptible opinion of the intelligence and Integrity of that body, If It were reasonable to assume that tho National Convention will sanction the methods which the third-term- ers have taken In Jinofs and Louislans to selze the entire delegations from these States by force and fraud, then it would also follow that the National Convention will place # false extinnate upon the intelligence and patience of the Americnn people. THE REACTION IN PRICES, Tum Cincaao Timmune bas frequently commented upon the reaction that has taken place in tho unnatural and unhealthy ad- vance In prices of stovks and other things, which, beginning In iron and steel last July, and later {neluding other articles, reached its maximum fu February and March of this year, Never was thors a more promising condition of trade and production thun that which was progressing at this tle Inst year, ‘The long staguution had given way to actiy- ‘ty,, and there was no branch of in- dustry that was not in a thriving and prosperous condition, Labor was employed to an unprecedented extent; wages were remunerative, new trades and occupations had been opened, capital was [n- vesting freely, and the very enrth, a8 in aym- pathy with Inbor, yiclded as it had never ylolted before in -order to swell the grand product and bless the people with abundance, Never had the country produced such sure plus, and never had ft so much to sell, and never had there been such an excess of carn- ings over expenses, Ench ndiitlon to the means of purchasing incrensed the demand for cousumption, when, crazed by the de mand, certain classes concluded to raise prices, and, rushing these by rapid ateps, soon placed them at a most unreasonable seate, Prices reached that hight that consump ton of American goods was reduced, and the workshops of Europe became busy making goods for the American market, During January, February, and March, 1880, Great Britain sent to this country 405,046,000 pounds of lron, against 10,584,000 pounds in. the same months of 187), and the British work- shops are even now pouring thelr iron over here by every steamer or sailing vessel, Of course the Iron boom broke; prices have falten, the country is filled with iron, stcel, hardware, cotton, woolen, and other goods produced at high prices and for which there {y no sale at such prices, and which whey sold must be gold at the world’s prices. In sympathy with the advance to prices there was a boom instecks and bonds. Bank-- rupt rallroads, whose entire property dors not equal In value the amount of thelr debts, have had their watered stack selling at fancy prices; hlgh-quoted capital stocks and high- -priced stocks of goods have been used aa collaterals upon which to borrow money; but the bottom having fallen out of prices, and tho stock market having gone to pleces, tho ability to borrow money on such securi- tles has declined, and fancy enpital stock and high-priced stocks of goods must bo forced on tho market and sold for what thoy will bring, ‘Tho vast fortunes which wero gathered In during the: first stnges of the diiation will bo swept away even more rapidly than they were made. ‘Tho decline in prices nt the Stock Board fn Wall street has been a general fall; tha fancy atocks haye gone under, and even the moro substantial stocks have not only lost everything they gained since tho boom, but have gono ven much lower. Another calamity resulting from the boom hasbeen the spasmodic rise in wages, fol- lowed by the rapid decilne,—n decline which Jas closed already so many establishments. and forecd so many porsons out of employ- ment, The renction that has followed the fover- heated oxpansion is: one of tho -worst re- suits of tho {ntilation of prices, and, whilo such arenction might well have been fore- seen and was inevitable, the boom” was pushed with a blind faith and unrensoning confidence that {t was- to Inst forever, Tor every dollar of profit made In this country out of the craze in prices, there have been fen dollars profit given to the manufacturers and producers of Enrope, They have reaped a harvest from our sulcidal attemptto estal- lish prices tn this country above and beyond those of tho markets of tho world, As well for ono merchant in Chicago to at- tenipt to fix prices 100 per cent greater than thaseof his nelghbors, and expect that hls eustomers will not buy elsewhere, as for one conntry to undertake to fix prices 100 per cent above those of the rest of the world, and. expeet consumers to pay those prices, ‘The bottom is notreached yet; the “boom”? will be wholly flattened out. Prices will fall t& thelr proper natural level, and that level is the highest prico that ts consistent with the grentest abundance and the greatest powor of consumption. That people is the most prosperous which has the greatest abundance of this worll's goods at prices pincing them within tho reach of the greatest number. In the propor- tion that this union of the greatest produc: tion nnd the greatest consumption exists, then, fs the general prosperity of the whole estab- lished. When the prices have reached the proper rate, then consumption will bo resumed, In- dustries suspended by the risu in prices will be resumed, employment will be re stored, labor will find remunerative wages, and healthful trade and enlarged pro- duction will go on vigorously, adding to the wealth, and peace, and happiness of tho whole country. ‘The calamitous boom ought to be a warning, but there js no enlam- ity 50 greatas to deter men once selzed with the madness of spectilation. ‘That this boom will be repented at intervals there can be no question, but experience shows that as the world progresses theso sudden inflattons havo shorter Hves, and tho reaction comes with more destructive effects, One fortunate circumstance attending this boom and tho succeeding renction Is, that we had a sound currency. The speculation was on a basis o colu money, and not upon that of a depre- elated, Inconvertible paper currency. Had we had such a currency as we had in 1878, the collapse of the boom would hava been followed by afar more disastrous and pro- tracted Interruption to trade and production than that which has taken place, Feupaus dies hard. Tho Duke of Abercorn, who once served tho Tories as Lord Licutenant of Ircland, has a numerous fumily of beautiful daughters and ambitious sons. ‘Tho daughters have all been well married, and the sons, until this year, have been very successful politically, three having seats in Parliament and two of thom holding high office under the Crown. At tho recent genoral election, only one, Lord Georgo Ham- Hilton, held his place, the seat for Middlesex, which, by the way, was contested by Mr. Glndstone’s son Herbert. The other two wero defeated, one at King's Lynn, England, the other in the County Donegal, Ireland. ‘The Duko’s brother, Lord Clande Hamilton, was also defeated in the County Tyrone, Ire- land. The Duke, a3 might be expected, was exceedingly disappointed and very angry at these setbacks to his family, but nobody expected that he would rovenge himself after tho manner which he hus recently announced, Tho eldest son of the -Duke, the Marquis of Hamilton, was defeated In Donegal by the Rev. Dr. Kinnear, a Presby- terinn clergyman, who is an advanced Lib- ern} and tenant-rightor in polliles. Although the Duke has no means éf knowing It, he suspects that the Roman Catholic and Pres- byterlan tonantry on hls Donegal estate voted against ils son, and, to be revenged on thom fof what he doubtless regards as traitorous conduct, he-has had every ten- ant-at-will on the property sorved with a notice to quit; hot refuses all compromise with them, and will doubtless evict every ons of them, and all because they had tho manhood, the intelligence, and the po- litical couraza to vote for tho man of thelr choice, ‘To be consistent, the Duke of Abercorn ought to have forbld- den his daughter to marry the Liberal Mar- quis of Landsdowne; but then the Marquis has ‘a largo estate. Tho unfortunate ten- antry, whose families have occupled their Donegal farms for generations, will be turned ndrift noxt November, thelr iinprovements confisented, their Nltle homes Ieveled with the ground, and they themselves packed into the Irlsh workhouses or driven to this coun- try with no enpltal, no knowledge of the country, and very Uttlo hope for the future, for having doue what In other people is esteemed a virtue—voted according to thoir conscientious convictions, Tue Iinols contest will not ba decided in the Nutlonal Convention without reverting to tho bolt of the’ Grant delegates from the regular Cook County Convention, because that bolt was the means used tor obtaining the fraudulent majority in the State Con- ventlon which subsequently endeavored to usurp tho righta of the Congressional dis- triets to appoint tholr own delegates, {t wlll be made clear to the National Convention, a3 {tls already clear to the country, that the Cook County bolt was organized in defiance of all party usage and overy principle of fulrneas, It will bo demonstrated from the records of the IilInols State Convention that, If the regular Cook County delega | tlon had been admitted from tho first, or even if the delegates from four Senatorial districts In this county whoso seats were not contested {n the Convention had been nllowed to vote on the contest in the other three Senatorial districts, the Grint men would have been in a minority, itence the Grant majority in the Mlinois Convention was irregular and bogus, If a regular and bona fide majority in a State Convention cannot, under the terms of the call, usurp the right of the Congress{onal districts to appoint the two delegates each which they are invited to send to the Na- tlonal Convention, then certainly the Na- tlonal Convention will not permit o fraudu- lent majority to usurp this function, The Grant men wight sanction such a froud it they could contro! the Convention in ord to do 80; but, pending the settlement of. Iinols contest, upon which the bogus Brant delegates from Iiinols will not be Sagi to vote, the antl-Grant delegates in tho Con- I. vention will havea Inrgo majority and will not tolerate the supremacy of fraud. ——— Yersrenpay It was shown that tho dele- gntes choson by representatives of the people In all tho Grant districta were reflected by To- giin'’s Convention without exception.

The Conventions In ull threo dlatricts wore con~ trolled by anti-third-termers.

Tho dele- gates from tho two strong anti-third-term districts woro excluded from tho temporary or- ganization, a6 in Illinois; a fraudulent contest was milo before a packed committee, and as tho result of a mock “ compromise” the contestants and regulars from tha two strong anti-third-torm districts were seated with half a vote for cach delegate. This pretended “coinpromise " gave the control of the Convention to tha third-term- crs, und thoy elected nine delegates out of six- teon to tho National. Convention, though thoy wore not falrly entitled to ono. In Louisiana another bolt was orgnnized—it is sald by the ad- yico of Senator Logan—and about one-quarter of tho delegates to the State Convention chose a full list of detegates to Chicago, on tho assure ance from the Ross of Mlinois that they would be admitted, Tho evidenco of a wide-reaching conspiracy to contro) the National Convention by means of bolts, cooked-up majoritics, anda violation of alllaw and precedent is complete. It remains for sober-minded Republicans to do- olde whether a nomination so obtained could be worth the paper it was written on, and whether the Republican party oan afford to run tho risk of 2 “spontancous" candidate go thimblo-rigged upon tho country, — ‘Tue friends of: the “Plumed Knight” clain twenty-six of tho delegutes from Penn- sylyania to the Chicngo Convention out of the Ufty-claht to which tho Stato is ontitied.
