and some parts of the southern states, there
has been a supefabrndance of rain, which
has retarded farming operations, and done
some injury to crops on low ground, especlly
in Indiana and Georgia. 70 The southwestern

Georgia, where rust is damaging wheat

A Disgusted Wisconsin Radical
The editor of the Ripon. Represeatatire
"a newspaper with q consistent radical
record, was at the Chicago convention. He
was considerably dlsgusted with the general
proceedings of that body, but more aespe-
cially with the nomination of Ulysses of
whom he thus speaks: - e2 9.te
GAS democrat, he has always been con-
sidered as A No. !. Asa general of the
armies, we have always admired Grant /;
but as statesman, as man for president
Of the United States, we have never been
able to perceive his superiority, and we are
honestly afraid that his nomination has
been. grand mistake, Many good repub-
licans would rather see the ticket fail first.
Schuyler Colfax has more ability, and has
every necessary qualification which presi-
dent should have, and we firmly believe he
is the most popular man with the people.
This is merely our opinion, but many that
we have heard express themselves appear
to feel the same way. Ld 53h1s9 h'f -
t.Irwould have pleased the great mass Of
republican voters much better if the con-
vention had nominated, a man that was
known't to be a republican, and could say
his soul was bis own, instead Of one who
has always been democrat. The party
has tried one renegade from the democratic
party and have him on hand yet, with
brilliant prospect Of keeping him. Andy
sticks like a burdock burr to a boys trou-
sers' leg 9ltswo,lld seem by the way con
ventions act that the best men in the re-
publican, party we're reformed democrats.
Fofothe good of the party, we don't like to
see it virtually acknowledged quite SO
often .7t3ai
