Fenton for Governor.

Governor Fenton has been in the city re-
Gently, and the number of visitors he received
shows that his popularity with his party is by
no means diminished in consequence of his
Chicago mishap. 1t is said that the Republican
Convention will probably renominate Fenton
for Governor. Well, he has made very fair
executive officer for the past four years and is
probably the strongest candidate the republi-
cans can put in the field The only persons
who are opposed to him are Thurlow Weed and
his tail; but as Thurlow Weed is pretty effec-
tually laid on the shelf his opposition is by no
means dangerous. Fenton is the only candi-
date yet named on the republican side who
possesses any force or positive character. A
rival editorial clique, composed of Conkling,
Morgan and others, are pretending to back up
Greeley for the nomination, but this is all
humbug Their only object is to spike Gree
ley's guns, which are likely to do them more
damage than their three hundred thousand
dollar newspaper speculation can ever do them
good. The best thing the Republican Conven-
ton can do is to renominate Fenton, who has
beaten both Seymour and Hoffman on former
occasions, and who may be fortunate enough.
to win third time.
