Thore seems tohave beon a thorough understanding ‘between the Greenbackors and the Domocrats, tho formor contenting themselves with securing tho Governor and muking no nominations for Prosidentin! Eloctors, The Campaign Commit- tees of both parties have also agreed to act in concert. It Is puzzling to understand the no- cessity for two separate organizations. _— Ir it was intended that the Veteran Con- vention hotd bore yeatertay should be in ald of the Grant boom, thuae who projeated tho movo- mont wore very sadly disappointed. Tho roso- Jution offered favoring tho nomination of tho ex-Prosident was bittorly resiated by very noarly half, if not fully half, of the Conventioa. The apeoches of Congresaman, Burrows, Gon, Grosvenor, and Mr, Houtwell, against singling outany of tha candidates boforo the Conven- ton had no fittle effect, and it required all the enthuslasm of Corporal “’anner and Gon, Beaver toaster tho ant!-Grant tide, It should bo re- membored that a sliuilar gathering hold In 1808 was onthuslastically unanimous in favor of Grant. Tho third-torm idea is no more relishod by tho soldier than the elvilian. ‘Tie appropriation of $110,000 for tho im- provement of tho Illinois River as recom mended by the House Committes wns yeater- day cut down to $85,000 by tho Senate, not- withstanding the offorts of Senator David Davis. Tho othor Bonntor from Ilinols 1s too much engrossed with business in this city to be In his place when important businoss pertaining to his State comes up for discus- sion, Judge Davis suceeded in having the approprinion for the improvement of the Mississippi River botween tho mouths of the Illuola und tho Obio Rivers increased from $200,000, 13 recominended bythe Sonate Com- mitteo, to, $250,000, as recommended by tho House Committe A pispater received by way of Dallos, ‘Tex., gives a thrilling account of an attempted robvery near Clear Luke, Collins County, In that State. A farmer numed Bradley, who bad just eold some enttle, guve his wife the proceeds of the suite, $200, for safe-kceping. During tho ub- gonce of Tradiey and about midnight ono night lust weok, two robbers entered the house, cut Mrs. Bradley's throat, and obtained possossion of the money.’ Just as thoy wero about depart- Jog with the booty, n strange: who was provided with a bed in tho gallery heard the groaos of tho dying woman, and obsorving the departing robbers, snatched a six-shooter and fired in- stantly. Both the robbers, who turned out to bo women of tho nefghborhood, wero killod, ono being shot through the heart, the othor through tho head. Tur proposition to approprinte $100,000 to provide for tho storigo of silver gave rise toconslderable discussion in tho House yester~ dny, in which Messrs. Bland, Hayos, Ewing, purticipated., Secretary Sherman: was severely critleised for obstructing the circulation uf sil- yer, and [twas binted that bis recomtmundation that tho $100,000 be appropriated for the storage of the coin was made with the intontlon of justifying bis own opposition to tho double standard. A proviso, offered by Mr. Hayes, of this Ktato, was udoptod, providing that Con- gressmen shall be hereaftor paid thofr salaries inailver dollurs, By this ucans, tho gentleman fuectiously romarked, the entire salaries of Congresatnen would bo placed in circulation tho day on which thoy are pad.

At an early hour yesterday morning the antl-third-term members of tho Nutlonal. Committee, consisting of a large majority of tho whole number, mot at the Grand Pacific Hotel to take measures to dIselpling Sr. Cameron for his refusal to put amotions and, to entertain appeals from hig own decisions on the previous evening, ‘The resolutlon was reached tu deposy him if he persisted In his refractory course, Shortly after 3 o'clock p, im, the whole Committee met at the Palmer Jlouse, and after some discussion an agrec- nent was reached whergby the extreme mead ure resolved upon by thé majority was avold- ed, -the ‘Third-Term Syndicate conceding the ‘Temporary Chgirmauship of the Convention to Senator Hoar, of Massachusetts, one of thelr most pronounced opponents, but o per> fectly fair und Just man, It wasn part of the agreement that no oppusition should bemude to Mr, Hoara taking the chulr, and that pend- ing the report of the Committes on Creden- tials all regularly appointed delegates should take thelr seats in the Convention. This will enable the bogus delegates from ten districts of Hiinols to take seats untit ousted by the Convention, as they surely wilt bo when tho Committe on Credentials make thelr report. The “unit rule” fs broken by the actlon of the National Committee, since, untll the Committee on Rules and Order of Business make thelr report, the rules of tho Jast National Convention govern, As ench State and ‘Lerritery appoints one member of each Committee, the anti-third-term men will ave ag lnrge a minjority on those as they had on the National Committee, Tho preliminaries dro thus settted In a way that-can hardly fall to destroy whatever chances tho three Bosses had of controlling the Convention and tho nomination. ‘The at- iempt of Cameron to hold the reins in his own hands, to dictatethe temporary organi- zation, and to enforce the “unit rule? has been frustrated. Tho breaking of his dicta- torshtp of the Committee was speedily fol-. lowed by such 2 loss of prestige in his own State that twenty-three Pennsylvania deto- gntes forthwith drow up mid signed a protest against the nomination of Grant, and de- ctared their intention to vote against hin, in obedience to the known wishes of thelr con- stituents, Theso are only the first drops of the shower,—-tho beginnings of the Inevitable stampede, Human nature gathered toguther in a convention of 750 delegates {s vastly susceptible to the first signs of victory or defeat. Men will not fail to obsorve that every step taken by the oppo- nonts of the third term has been a sure step, that no inch of ground has been lost, that they have carried every pulnt they have set out to carry, and that, the syndicate have had nothing but brass to oppose igalnst glitter. ing steel. The whole country will be awake to-lay to tho fact that the organization of tho Convention has been wrested from the grasp of tho nachine. A mighty effect will be pro- duced in distant cities and States, whose re- flex will be felt in every delegation here bo- foro nightfall. ‘The dend point of dan- ger all along has been that the friends of Blaine, Sherman, Washburne, Ed- munds and Windom would become Jealous of cach other, and that crcl, In the foar of hurt- ing tho feelings of Cameron or sone other Boss, would stop short of a thorough defeat of the third-termers in the temporary or- ganization. ‘The third-term Bosses lave counted with confidence on the jentousy and cowardice of tholr opponents, and have been fatally disappointed, All this proves, a3 nothing else would prove, that the Republican party. 1s vehe- mently, bitterly, intensely opposed to the rc- nomination of Gon. Grant for a third term, and imbued with the conviction that le could not be elected if nominated. Nothing short of this fact, this ‘conviction, could have overcome the power which the maching hag brought to bear upon the Convention. That thelr power has been finally overborne by a superior power, wo firmly believe. We expect to sce them losing ground to-day in the Southorn deleza- tlony where they supposed they were strong, and eventually wa expeot to seo thom withdraw their candidate as best they may. Meanwhile wo adjuro tho friends of othor enndidutes to keep thoir ranks well closed, and to let no jeatousy of each other open 0 gup.among them so long as the matin battle repining undecided. The fate of the Repub- lican purty is in the balance, not trembling, seareely doubtful, but still undetorinined, ‘Tho dawn of victory has appeared, but lot no one cense tu uso his best, most valinnt, and patrlotle endeavors to make it complete, deelslye, aud overwhelining. WILL GEN. GRANT WITHDBAW1 "There 1 just one safe and honorable means whereby Gen, Grant cen escape responsibll- ity for the scramble and struggle for the Presidential nomination In which he hing be- come involved by tho disreputable measures of the selfish Bosses who are uslng his name as acloak for thelr own spolls-seeking do- signs, x Gen. Grant hag never by any public or au- thorized statement admitted. that ho was a candidate forthe nomination. On the con- trary, his repeated declarations have been to tho effect that nothing but an“ linperative duty’? In the shape of a demand by the coun- try for his services, and an unopposed and’ generally unanimous tender of the office, could possibly induce him to necept tho Presidency a third time, So far as thoro has been any personal statement of his views on the subject, ho stands on this question now exactly whero he stool when he wrote this much to Harry White, of Pennsylvania, four years ago, Thore have bevn no evidences presented of any neceasity for hissurvices, On the con trary, the Republican party has uever been so woll provided with: eminent statesinen who would unite its entire support a8 now, and among these wo may mention Blaine, Washburne, Edinunds, and Windom, either of whom, if nominated, would be accoptable notonly to the Republican party, but to the whole country. ‘The candidacy forced upon Gen. Grant by aciique of grasping, self-constituted dicta- tors has excited und conyulsed ‘the whole Republican party. It has producud a con- tention such 1g no purty hus ever witnessed since that which dismembered the Demo- cratle purty at Charleston twenty years ugo, and blossomed fnto civil war o year later. Never {i the history of political conventions has there been such a condition of at- fairs 13 now confronts tho Republican Convention which micets to-day in this elly. Never before in the his tury, of any party. was there such un array of open, direct, avowed hostility to any person numed asa candidate ag fs now presented against the nonination of Gen, Grout, The New England Stutes, Now Jer- goy, Olio, Michigan, Lowa, Kansas, Indiana, Wisconsin, Minnesota, and the three Pacific Const States are practically unanimously here protesting against another term of Grant. Thesdure ull States whose Electoral yotes will bo absolutely mecessury to the elec tlon of tho Republican candidate, Tho dule- gations appointed in New York aud Penne sylyanta were appointed under grab-game lreuinstances; and an attempt;to coerce thom to yote for Gen, Grant {s strenuously resisted by large nuinburs of those delegu- tluns. Even in IHinols the attempt to elect a “+solld ". delegation for Gen, Grunt has boon so scandalous and disgraceful that If it abould prove successful in the Canvention It would unquedtionably ba repudiated by teng of. thousands of, Republicans at, the polls: ‘The nomination pf Gun. Grant by the Chi- cago Convention can only be accomplished by a resort to measures which wil} certaluly disrupt and overwhelmingly defeat the party at tho clection this fall, If Gen. Grant his been stleytin tho pres ent struggle it ly futr and just to assume that he hus buen walting to doturmlue for himself whether “clroumgtances” now ex- ist which “iyoke it an finperatlye duty” for hin to Ivt any person use his name before the Convention for the Presf- densy, Gen; Grant is too senalbles man tobe iinpressed with any bellef that his yomination {is demanded with any approach to unauliie ity by the Republicans of the country, He cannot fail to have discovered that those who have assured blu that ho would receive a “gpontaneons support” have qucelyed bin, anil that, while thare would be no division of the party fp case any other candidate was nomlaated, his nomination would be 60 dis- dasteful tothe rank and file of the Reput- lean States as to Insure the defeat of the Republican party, We assume that Gen. Grant has by this {ime made up his mind that his nomination 19 not only not demanded by the country, but is opposed by aclear and unmistakable ma- jority of the Republican party, and wo can- not concelvo that he will pormit the harmony of the Convention to bo disturbed by the uso of hisnamo asa candidate for the nominn- tion, but that he will do In 1880 what ho did in 1875,—disclaim any intention to force hime self upon tho country or party as a candidate for the third term, Such nstatement to-day from Gen, Grant will dispose forever of the third-term ques- tlon in Amertean -pollties and secure him an {mportant influence for all timo fn the councils of the Republican party and of tho country, What will bo the result In case his name is permitted by him to be used fn the Conven- tion as a candiinte for the nomination? ‘Tha yoto of the Convention, if it be disastrous to his nomination, will give the negative to the pretenso of spontancity; {t will placo Gen, Grant in tho attitude of having been presented to tho poopie as fn candidate, and rejected. If, on the other hand, the Convention, by tho use of means wholly unknown to previous conven- tlons, shall nominate him, his nomination will not bo accepted as that of any other candl- date will be, by the hearty support of the whole party. In many States his nomination will be considered as fatal to the hopes of success, and this, too, in somo of the largest Republican States of the Unton. The campaign will open, therefore, with a confession of defeat, and such a cam- “paign Is certain to end in disaster. We need not speculate upon the effect which such a result will have upon tho National esteom and regard for Gen, Grant. Under these circumstances Gen, Grant can to-day rescuc himself, the Republican party, the country, and the Convention from a vast deluge of discontent, strife, disunion, and defeat by simply directing that those who have persistently presented lis name as a enndidate shall no longer do go, but shall unite with the other Republicans in selecting some othor candidate for the Presidency.

TheGrant men had been declsively beaten at the primaries, ‘Cheanti-Grant men wore ina majority of more than two to one, In other counties throughout the State where the Grant men had secured control of the conventions by the smallest majoritics, and oven by foul means, they had seized the entire delegation to the State Convention, In the Cook County Convention, where they had but one-third of tho delegates, under Logan's Jead they bolted, for the express purpose of getting up acontest, Thoy knew that they wero beaten not merely in Cook County, ‘but in tho State including Cook County, A conspiracy was thereupon concocted to exelude tha 03 regular Cook County dele- Rates from the State Convention, ‘Tho State Conmittco, under the dictation of Logan, en- tered Into that conspiracy. Tho 93 regular delegates were excluded pending the contest made by the bolters, ‘This foul trick gave tho thira-termera a bogus majority in the State Convention for tha time being, and that bogus majority admitted n sufficient number of the Cook County bolters.to constitute a permanent majority. Ind the 03 regular delegates from Cook County been ndinitted thore would havobeen an ant-Grant majority from the start, and the four delegutes-at-large would have beon antl-third-termers, Had the uncontested del- egates from Cook County—56 delegutes rep- resenting four State Senatorial districts— been permitted to yote on the 86 contested geata (to which they had the same right as uny other uncontested delegates in the Con- vention), the boltera would not have been admitted, and the antiGrant sen- tlment of the Itepublican party in Mlinots would have been fairly represented, ‘There was a majority of oply 88in favor of aduitting the 86 bolters, in a vote from whi¢h the 54 uncontested regular delegates from Cook County wore excluded by Logan, Hat the latter voted there would have been 18 majority agalnst the admission of the bolters, and an antl-Grant majority of at least &4 in the Convention hohestly and regu- larly organized. _ Tho Logan delegates to the National Con- vention aro not regulur,.o8 the Cook County delegation to the State Cunvention was, Yet tho Cook County delegates, being regu- lar, were not aven adinitted to the foor of the State Convention pending the contest mado by tho bolters, The Logan delegation, belug irregular, should certalnly bo pre- vented from voting on thelr. own case in the Natlonal Convention. The whole Logan del- egation Is lrregulur because they were op- polnted by a convention that was irregularly and fraudulently organized, and by a bogus mujorlty made up frow, boltera who. had no moral nor party right to seats in that body. “If the National Convention follow the precedent at Spiingfield established by Logan, the entire fortytwo Logun delegates will by excluded from wll participation ty the proceedings pending the contest, After Logan had procured # bogus major ity by the fraudulent methods which have been described, ho caused delegates to be ap- poluted by a Committee to misrepresent tho Republican constituencies of ten districts In tho Stato, and sojected the delegates which ‘tho representatives of those ten districts had solected. ‘This action was In flagrant violu- tion of the rule Inid down by the National Committee for the solection of dolegates, whicl: is as follows: Republicans, and all who will ¢olperato with thoi in aupportiug the nominees of tha party, are inutted ty choose Ceo daeyates from each Con> qreastonal District, four at largo from ench State, two fron cach Territory, and two from the Dis- trict of Coluinbia, to.

Under tho rulo the regular del- egatesto the National Committee from ten districts in this Stnto are those who were ap- pointed by the district delegates, and not those appolnted by Logan's Committee and ratified by a boxus majority in the State Con- vention, the disfranohlsed districts not vot- ing. These regular delegates from ton antl- Grant districts In this State, representing o larger Republican mojority than the entire Republican majority of tho State, demand admission to the National Convention, They aro entlifed to tholr seats by the enll of the Natlonal Committeo, by tho precedent of district repre- sentation, and by the equity of majority rule. If any delegates from the State of Illinois have the right to vote in the Convention pro- vious to the decision on this demand or upon the demand Itself, that right rests with the twenty delegates regularly appointed by the districts. Thelr claim to the privileges of the Convention 1s superfor to that of the four dolegates-at-large, who were appolnted by a bogus majority, and in every way equal to that of the ofghtcen delegates appointed by tho nine Grant districts, Either no delegate from Illinols should be permitted to vote {n the Nationul Conven- tion pending the Illinols contest, or the IIll- nols delegation so voting should be made up of the twenty delegates appointed by the anti-Grant districts and’ the eighteen delo- gates appointed. by the nino Grant districts, In elther case, there 1s no doubt that the regular district delegates will be admitted, and the irregular Logan delegttes, secking to misrepresent the districts, will be perma- nently excluded. * THE PATRI ON THE GROUND FLOOR. Tho studdht‘ofAiman nature may find a, profitable feld for study In the hotels and thelr ‘swarming corridors. The hotel has Brown to be such a factor in polities that It is, doubtful. whether a Prosidential candidate could bo nomtuated without it. It is not alone that the hotel feeds and lodges dole- gates, but it provides the accommodntionsfor tho blowing and- bluster which have come to bo the necessary accompaniments of:con- ventions. Of course, the real work !s dono in secret byafew. Tho great crowd is in- structed to talk, Tho strikers and blowers must got in their work, and thelr headquar- ters.are In the corridors. Thoy arein session all the time, and the sesstons are very lively, ‘Tho plan of organization is yory simple. ‘Two strikers meet, usually o very little man, fussy and pugnactous,—as little men -usu- ally are—and a very large man, of tha ‘“don’t-you-forget-it” sort, or a very young ian. and a very old man, It fa only necessary for the very Ifttle man to elevate his shrill volcee or for the very Jarge man to bring down his fist vigorously to attract two or three about them. Gradu- ally others are drawn, until at fast the two become the nuclous of an eager circloso larga that only a word or two comes to tho outer edge. The circle gradually becomes 1. solid, compact niass, all cars turned towards: the nucleus, though heating nothing. At lust some highly imagluative party catches n few incoherent words like “Grant,” “unit rule,” “ Logan’s bolters,” “ Illinols’ gagged delega- tion,” “Cook County’s bolt? “third-term bogus delogates,” ete., which he resolves at once into a declaration of such importance that he cannot keep it to himself. Le accord- ingly steps out, finds tho necessary person to form ao nucleus, and tho crystallizing process agaln begins. R A second etrelo is formed, which, very quickly assumes the dimensions of tho first, ‘Thus, one after tho other, the entire crowd resolves itself into circles, Taking a bird's- eye view, one sees rings of Individuals with four arnis geatictrlating In the centre of each, the outside Inyera bending inwardly and manifesting the deepest concern, though they cannot hear o sound, still resolutely holding thelr places for fear that they may loge sight of Conkling and Foster whon they get tlred of thelr discussion,—for thoso on the outsido nro firmly persuaded that Conkling and Foster are on, the inside, Sometimes these clreles are formed without any reférenco to politics at all. "A. dolegate from tho .ural districts of Wisconsin moots a delegate from the rural districts of Kansas, and stops to inquire about the crops. At once nn admiring crowd gathors about thom, and they find thomselyes hemmed in boyond all possibilty of escapo, It Is only necessary for one man to beckon to anothor and ho !s Immediately surrounded by an cager crowd on tho alert to find out what he knows about tho situation, ‘Thoso circles arc mutually sympathetic, A sally of witin the centro ralses a laugh among those nearest, and tho laugh spreads clear to tho outer edge, though it has not heard » sound, Our colored brethren from the South are the chief objects of intercat, Their elrcles are always the largest, and they move about with an alr of dignity and Importance, loudness of badge and a glossiness of hat, that ensily distinguish them from white delegates, Admiration Is dear to thon. Thoy feed upon it, ‘Thoy wear a mysterious look. ‘Cholr utterances are oracular. They aro weighed down = with responsibllittes, ‘They have business to transact, ‘They aro no longer the bulldozed and ostracised, but men and brethren, and they iiMprove their opportunities, ‘They are the heroes of the hour, and, as thors Is no deflnit way of dedlding which of them {s Pinchback or which {s Haralson, they can all pass current for Pinchbacks' and Haralsons, and enjoy the admiration of the crowd. And thus the blowers and strikers keep up the excitement all day and far into the night at fever-hoat, never wanting for auditors, Thus tho great work of saving the country goes on, and patriotism, emphasized by brasa bands, and iustrated with flying flags and banners, and designated with new white hats, shows new and gorgoous blooms, Tho close observer will notloe a singular feature in the surging mass, aud that Is thy intense interest manifested: by tha Democrats in the prococdings.” “fe will find ot every hotel scores of Democratic politiclang wearing Grant badges and blowing and striking fur Grant, They see no salvation for the coun- try untess he {a nominated. Whey yearn for it \Pbey ara working for it with desporate energy, knowing that his nomination [s the only contingency ly which’ thelr party can. hopa to be successful, . Hence the loudest advocates for Craut and the third term are the Democrats. Bald one prominent Demo- crat to another on Monday, “ It looks as if the Convention will nowinate Grant.’ “And may the Lord help them to do ft,” replied the others it is oyr only hope.”” Itisa pecullar characteristlo of thesc vast crowds, which spparently neither eat, drink, nor sleep, that they are!u good huimor, and their discussions never ond in apything but words, Tho crowd acts up a laugh at the ox- pense of the vanquished, who retires in good ordor and tomper. Tho services of the po- Heomen who clreniate through tho dense inass of wrangling humanity are not needed except to protect the garrulous patriots from plekpockets, Much of thls cquanimity and gentality In the midst of so much ex- eltoment is due to two of the elements which conspire to innke Chicago so famous as a place of sumntner resort. Irst, the hotels are Bo vast that thoreis plonty of roomin which to: tnkebreathingspella; and, second, tho weath- er ts so cool and delightful Uint It acts like an emollient upon the wranglers, soothing thom and cooling down thelr licat, Ilad ‘the Convention been held in St. Louls, Cincin- natl, or Now York, where tha sun is burning evorything up, no one con tell what disas- trous consequences might havo resulted from such excitement as wo hava bad -hore during the past three or four days. The great work of the ground-floor patriots, how- ever, {8 about finished. The Convention will meet to-lay. ‘Thoy have done thelr work well. They haye fought stoutly, and, who- ever shall be nominated, undoubtedly they havesaved tho country. =~ ——— MISSOURI AND KENTUCKY. Missour! has thirty and Kentucky twenty- four delegates in the Republican National Convention,—ftty-four In all, These dele- gations come to Chicago “instructed” for a third term of Grant. The machine would not leave them free to ascertain tho relative strength of candidates in the Republican States, and cast thelr votes accordingly for the common interest of the Republican party, but sought to thrust gags into thelr moutha, to bind them band and foot ta,tho only candi- date to whom there isn determined oppost- tion In the Republican States. Tha National Convention will knock off these shackles, and leave the delegates from Missouri ard Kentucky free to help the Republican States, instead of dragging them down to comnion defeat, gVill they improve this freedom ? ‘Bho Republicans of Kentucky can do nothing of themselyes to assist in the clee- tion of the Republican candidate. Kentucky. was Democratle by 63,000 majority at the Inst Presidential election, and two years ngo. elected a golid delegation of ten Bourbons to Congress. An angel sent from Heayen to lead the Republicaus could not carry that State. The Republicans of Ohio, a sister State, sny to tho Kentucky delegates that they can. promise twenty-two Electoral votes for any Republican candidate oxcept 4 third term of Grant, but that Grant cannot by any. possl- bility carry tholr State. Will the Kentucky. delegates, nevertheless, use thelr power in- the Convention to fores Grant upon tho party and force inevitable defeat upon Ohto ? Anothor sister State—Indlana—bas a-hops of giving her fifteen Electoral votes for any Republican candidate except Grant, but con- fesses sure and crushing defeat with Grant, Will the twenty-four Kentucky delegates,’ wholly impotent and ‘utterly powerless in’ thelr own State, insist upon crushiug into the earth the Republican party in Indluna? - Here is Kentucky's record-in recent elec- tions: : Demoeratie in 1873 by. Demooratic in 1875 by rare Demooratlo in 1876 b, 426M Do Kentucky Republicans insist that Olilo and Indiana Republicans shall follow the same road to ruin? . Missourl occuptes much thé same position toward Iilinols, Iowa, and Wisconsin... .Tho sentiment of these Republican States is overwhelmingly opposed toathird term of Grant, ‘Illinois certainly, Wisconsin - proba- bly, and Iowa possibly will go Democratic upon the third-term issue, Llinols will never indorse 2 nomination obtained by tha delib- eraté disfranchisement of the Republicans of ten Congressional districts. In these three States are forty-two Eloctorat votes, whictt may be counted upon for any Repub- lean candidate except a third term of Grant, Will tho Milssour! delegates, utterly power- less themselves, assist in rendering Ilinols, Towa, and Wisconsin equally powerless? Mero Is the political record of Missouri. Democratle majority in 1872. Democratle majority 11 1s; Democratic majority In 1876. And at the lust Gloction a solld delegation of Bourbon Congressmen was olected. By shocking bad management, dictation of whls- ky-ring busses, and corrupt ruscals the Republ- Neon party of Missouri 1s nearly wived out. Shall this enormousand growing Democratic 14,229 monjority-be used to disfranchiso and defeat, tho Republican majority of Inols? ‘Tho -Missourl. and Kontucky delegates should listen to reason unless they are h—-- bent to beat the Republican party. Have the delegates from that Bourbon State a moral right or decent pretext to use thelr votes for 80 wrongful n purpose ? “Wirat Is the unit rule?” asks tho third- term organ, Tho unit rule Is adnilrably Iustrated in Puck's cartoon of “ Potltical Convicts,” whore “the delegates from New York, Ponnsylvania, Ilinols, Missour!, Ken- tucky, and Alabama, dressed in’ convicts’ garb, stamped “ third term,’ and shackled with “instructions,’ are marched with locked step Into, tho Convantion, tha three Bosses,” with loaded whip, bludgeon, ‘and slugger, forcing them to do thelr master's bidding. Words cannot describe nor tell the meaning of the “unit rule” as truthfully nor as forelbly as that graphic cartoon. It exhibits the delegates appointed by nearly ono hundred Congressional districts ot the country dented the right of speech, and of yote, and even of thought, In a Con- yentton of the Republican party, whose fundamental doctrine is freo spoech and froe yotes for free mon. The unit rule ia tho enslavement of the many for the profit of tho'few. Threemen have taken the contract to nominate Gen. Grant for President, and thoy propose by plactog shackles on a num ber of the delegates and voting them as slaves to carry out that contract, and this against the indignant: protests of the people whom theso delegutes were appointed to represent. ‘fo undertake to make such a rule the per manent polley of the Republican party is an attempt to destroy that party by making it odious to tho American people as a mere corporation of ofitce-brokers and political spollamon, Better havo the party dofcated and forever broken up than to haye such an organization in possession of the Government. ‘Tne Nationa! Conyentioncannot ratity the troud in the Uillnofp State Conyontion with- out becoming a party to that fraud.’ fhe grievance under this fraud ty for the present confined to the ten districts In this State which haye beon thereby disfranchjsed, It can be romoved by the admission of the twenty delegates appointed by theso: dis- tricts. If these regular delegates be denied adiisslon, and the bogus Logan delegates be auuiltted in thelr rightful places, then the wrlovauce will hecome Natlonal, for the ine justice to the Ilingis Republicans will.in that way be extended: to tha Republicans of the whole country, Logan. hast sought to*'disfranchiso ten districta, and” ro- sorted to frawl in order to carry put his purpose, If that fraud shall be contirmed by the Nationa!
