TRIBUNE began TO be one of uDcOmprOmising
defense Of Republican principles, whether against
che traitors who would assaIl or the crayeus who
would betray them. AS far as our Owa recOliec-
tiOn serves, we have Cndeavured to hold that
position now for full fourteen years, having as

existence. And if anybody suppOses that d late
This course has been calculated to promote the
election of one candidate for the SenatOrSbip more
than another, we VIII only say that so far as we
are informed, every candidate for that Office
whose name was presented before the Caucus on
Saturday night holds precisely the opinions advO-
Gated by The TRIBUNE with regard to the
sisdom of any new compromises Of natural
Justice and human rights" at the present crisis.
he very candidate whom The ,J0asHGl supported
heristes the identical views with regard to the
Ipion and the demands Of Slavery which are
abituay set forth in these columns; aud we are
opGdcat that he would have proved much
tronger with tue Legislature but for the susp-
ion that he sympathizcd with "that signal and
'Ameutabe failure in the efforts Of statesmen

nal is now a euloglst. How then, in continuing
70 maintain the time-hOHored and sacred doctrines
IF the party-thOugh we trust with something Of
added earnestuess and force IN view Of the tgca-
son and civil war now threatening the Republic
how then can We Justly be accused Of laborinG
exclusively with view to the election OF any
particular candidate for any particular Office
The Journal adds that, while we address the
impulses of Republicans it speaks TO their reason
The modesty of this pretepeion is established BY
the fact the The TRIBUNE still stands firmly for
the Republican Platform and policy, while The
Journal alarmed by The menaces of Rebellion
and the decline in the stock market, turns its
back upon them. luis may be appealing to
reason, but to US it wears rather the aspect OF
unfath(alness to principle and unmsnIy terror.
We are not surprised at The Journals confession
that course Of such nature is condemned
and repudated BY the great mass of intelligent
aud conscientious people.
