The Scramble.

The radical managers of this county, by
calling their convention to nominate can'li-
dates for county officers SO far in advance of
the election, have let loose an exceedingly
noisy scramble at time when such things
really starte the timid by being SO wholly out
of season. From the number of official aspi-
rants that have suddenly risen to the surface,
one would infer that half the radical voters in
the county are famishing for official pap.
John Ferguson, Walter Good, Clement Luellen
Francis Warner, and We know not how many
more, are willing to take the chances of
radical nomination. be elected to the COM
Portable Office OF sheriff Charley Hook, Her
man Silver, and almost any body else in or out
of the court house would be willing to take
the nomination for circuit clerk and almost
any radical physician is willing to take the
little perquisltos of the little officer of coroner.
The Republican, in its perplexity as to who's
ahead, vigorously pufs all alike, in the mean
time pitching furiously in advance, into the
boilers that are expected to kick against the
decision of the grand sanhedrin upon whom
the unpleasant task must fall of reconcling
such an innumerable host of conflicting claims
As the crop of ''bol.ers," from present appear
ances, promises to be numerous, We hope they
will heed the advice of the Republican, and
"clear out to the copperhcads, where they be-
long" Any decent republican, with nerve
and sense enough to, bolt his party trammels
and be free, man, is welcome among the
copperheads"

On Reconstruction.

The Ottawa Republican replies 10 our stric-
lures on the Louisiana black -and-tan constitu-
tion-ridicules our objections to its negro
equality teatures-thinks the provisions COM
polling negro and white children to occupy
the same seats in schools, negroes and white
men to sit side by side in railroad cars at hotel
tables, in theatres saloons, &C.. are admirable,
and seems honestly surprised that any one
should object to such associations. So far as
the editors of the Republican are concerned,
no one does object to their seeking just such
company as suits them. We have no question
of their entire sincerity in protesting to find
association with Africans perfectly congenial
to their taste. "De gustiJus," sc. What we
object to is, by statutory and even constitu-
tonal provision, to force upon whole people

FROM STREATOR.
Railroad Meeting,

On Saturday, March 2lstl, the citizens Of the
town Of Bruce met in Strestor for the purpose
of discussing the question as to whether the
bonds for $4,000, voted heretofore to be issued
to the Ottawa and Fox River Valley r. Il. Co.,
ought now to be issued. Over a hundred citi.
Eens were present. comprising most of the lead
inc men of the town. The debate was ngthy,
and at times quite animated, but resulted in the
unanimous adoption OF the following resolu-
tions;
Rewlred That the Supervisor and Town clerk
OF Bruce Township be requested TO issue the
thirty thousand dollars in bonds to the Ottawa
and Fox River Valley Il. r. company, as agreed
upon at the election held upon that subject, and
that said bonds be issued prior to the division of
the Township, and placed in the hands of Charles
Gray, John Smith and w. r. Miligan for safe
keeping until the iron is laid on the road from
Streator to Ottawa and when said Railroad is
SO completed, the said bonds to be delivered by
the persons above named to the officers of the
said Railroad company.
K1soloed, That this meeting adjourn to meet at
the Center school house, one week from this day,
at o'clock 2. NJ. and that we invite all per-
sons interested in the progress of said Railroad
to attend the meeting

The McArdle Case.
Hdq'rs DeyiTs Pit, IN !Se'penfs Bend,
NERVES.

The country is disappointed of its expecta-
ton that the Supreme Court Of the United
States would decide the McArdle case before
the act, recently rushed through Congress by
fraud to take it out of their hand, could be-
come a law. The court, infinitely more deli
cate than congress in such matters, holds that
a decent respect for coordinate branch of
the government requires them to await the
fate of the bill before making their decision.
Meantime the President has vetoed the bill,
and when it came before the senate on the
question of its passage the Presidents objec-
tons to the contrary Notwithstanding, we OBJ
serve Mr. Trumbull took substantially the
same view of the effect Of the bill that Mr..
Woodward, of Pa, took in the debate last
Saturday in the house--that it did not touch
the McArdle case. Mr. Trumbul being of
counsel against McArdle in that case, ought "a
know. The section of the bill of 1867, allow.
ing appeals to the supreme court in ha6,rs
corpus cases, and which, by the trick now We
toed, was repealed, Mr.. Trumbull contends,
referred only to certain cases that arose under
the apprentice laws of Maryland, and had no
relevancy to cases like that of McArdle, which
is governed by the act of 1850. We shall see,
when the supreme court make its decision,
whether this argument of Mr.. Trumbul is
only another dodge to disarm opposition, or
whether it is made in good faith. In either
case, it cannot abate from the infamy Of pass
ing so important law by trick, about the
intention Of which there is no disguise
