|i THE Cleveland Herald concludes
an editorial comment on the
Platform Of Principles adopted by
our Republican Convention on the
4th inst as follows: ..f .5+,,.
9 As whole the platform adopted
will he received with satisfaction by
the Republicans ofthe State, and on
the issue presented good fight will
be made i'll the coming campaign.
The resolutions were adopted by
the Convention, not only without
dissent, but with an enthusiasm
that at times knew no bounds. The
declarations in favor of Grant and
Wade as the standard bearers of
the campaign, the endorsement, of
the impeachment movement. and
the assertion of the financial policy
of the party. in particular were oc-
casions for tremendous outbursts
of enthusiasm. On those points
there was left not the faintest shad
ow of doubt as to the unanimous
sentiment of the Convention.

stamped upor his countenance. One
of his hollow coughs sounded with
startling effect over the chamber,
and fastened the attention Of all
present upon him. To the left of
Stevens stood Logan, with one hand
in his breast and one thrown behind
him. 1t was the easy yet marked
attitude of q trained military man.
,rs Across the aisle was Wilson, Of
Iowa, whose position, close folded
arms. erect and well formed figure
fixed attention upon him which he
so well deserved. For GOODNESS and
prudence, for calm, steady. and hon.
est expression of real conviction,
none of his associates will rank
above him. Williams, of Pa, was
placed next, and he two looked the
qhiet. strong man he is.. Butler stood
at the left of the line with his hands
crossed in front as if on dress pa
rade, and though eyed throughout
blythe throng, in common, with his
associates, his face gave little indi-
cation of what was passing in his
mind. Grave and thoughtful he
certainly was and before he finishes
will surely spread a net from which
lawyers cannot extract the Presi-
dent.

A Democratic Howl About the
Call of the National COnVen-
ton in New York. f "F


From the La Crosse Democrat.
On Saturday, February 22d, the Ma
tional Democratic Committee met
in Washington for the purpose of
designating the time and place of
holding the next Demo cratic Ma
tional Convention. i saz.9o'.1 @i't
1t was matter of great impor
tance to the mass or the people Of
the country that the convention
should be favorably located. 1t twas
necessary, in order to further the in
terest of the bondholders, many of
whom are making great efforts to
control the Democracy in the next
campaign, that the convention
should be held at some Eastern
point; and it was equally for the in
terest of those oppressed by bond
holders that it should not there be
held. a'
81 The committee met, and, with but
very little struggle on the part of
those from the West, who might
have saved it, it was decided to hold
the convention in the City of New
York! This fulfils the darling wish
es Of the bondholders, represented
by Belmont and Trains organ. If
the glorious metropolis had claimed
tA convention on the ground of
her grand Democratic majorities,
there would have been deal of rea-
son in the claim. But nothing Of
the kind was presented. The citi-
zens of New York did not ask for
the convention. 1t was only a plan
of the bondhollers who are unfor-
tnnately members of the National
Committee, to aid them in carrying
out their schemes.
''-a@ Thus far they have most cunning
ly managed, and their success is a
warning to the people.
Right under the eyes of Wall
street, amidst the jingle of the mon
ey bags, and the rustling Of the
bonds, will the convention be held
All the wonderful power of gold and
greenbacks will be brought to bear
upon the delegates to control their
action.
