I've say sherman or Nobody

I've say Sherman or Nobody"
A little over two weeks ago the n. !.
Tribune, speaking Of proposition By
some Republicans TO drop Sherman as
a candidate for Speaker aud take up
some more conservative man, argued
against il, and urged the Republican,
members to stick 10 him all the time.
winding up with the declaration; I'VE
say Sherman or nobody" Undoubt-
eddy this same spirit Of obstinacy-of
rule orruin--animatcd the great body
Of Republicans in the House. The
m ost ultra Southern men, such as
Barksdale and Smith of Virginia, said
to the Republican members, 'Gentle
men you can elect such Republican
as Mr.. Corwin or Mr.. Pennington at
any time" But no. Though they
knew that either Of these gentlemen
could be elected, the Republican mem
hers, for eight successive weeks, stuck
to Sherman, determined, il possible,
to cram him down the tIifoats Of the
Democrats and others opposed 70
their sectional party.
The presentation Of such . man as
Sherman, an indOrscr Of the Helper
book, with it's treason and murder,
was an insult to that body, and the
bulldog pertinasity with which they
stuck to him after il was shown that
the majority would never consent to
his election, proves beyond contro-
versy that they were willins, to sacri-
flee the peace and best interests q the
country to secure the triumph Of fac
ton.
Two months Of the precious time
Of the session have been lost-the re-
suit Of the obstinacy Of the ultra he
publicans-inyolving an expenditure

Postmaster General Holt estimates
that the loss to his Department alone
in consequence Of the non -organiza

country has been made to suffer il
consequence Of the insane attempt Q
the Republicans to force the Helper
lite Sherman upon the House As il
Speaker. The country will hold thes'
men, and the party Of which they ar'
the leaders, to strict account 70
their course in 50 long preventing TIL
