CHASE AND DIX AGAINST RADICALTsM.
Opinions Of Herald Correspondents.

correspondent writes from Herkimer as fol-
lows
Here, in Herkimer county, the HERALD is consi.
dered the warwick Of the press, so far as President
making Is concerned, and for this reason, other,
desire word with you. The prospective nomina-
ton Of Pendleton or seymour or some others OF that
class OF antwar politicians, by the Democratic Con-
vention bids fair TO place the thousands Of demo-
cratic soldiers VINO served through the war of the
rebellion In such position that they must sustain
the radicals with Grant at their head, or which is
equally distasteful, enlist under the banners OF the
men who during the rebellion were earnestly praying
for the success Of opponents. As an humble sol
der, bitterly opposed to the fanaticism OF Butler
Sumner, stevens q Co., cannot support Grant
while occupying the position he now does |;

ward 1 cannot permit Belmont Co. to
duplicate their action at Chicago IN 1904, and place

test OF that year. With Chase and Dix could be
well content, the more as recognize the last as
my own immediate commander during the war;
endeared to myself and thousands OF other private
soldiers by acts OF kindness and attention. and there
fore earnestly hope the advice OF the HERALD may
be needed by the 4th OF July Convention. Dix
will have the support OF the democratic soldiery as
long az he may wish II, and doubt very much his
cavaery telling any Of them that he simply desires
their aid until next November.r Failing this nomi-

du,e Governor Seynioir to aid

aid him in case Of need, that
he addressed 20 the govern

to show that the President
might call cut the New York
