with few recusant Republicans:
1t was thought that in the event Of a

which includes the charges that were
founded on his direct breach Of the

which there can hardly be a pretense Of

Cnnservailva Seourity.

A Brookville correspondent Of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer devotes a column Of that
paper to the abuse Of Hon. George w.
Julian, as one who feared not for the ORR
ginal National compact, for the rights Of
the States, nor, in reality, much for the
negro. but looking, as he was, after the
personal and political welfare of George
w. Julian, he spouted against slavery and
shareholders, and assumed the most radi-
cal positions against conservative security,
so sacredly given to protect such States Us
had slaves
The conservative security of men to buy
and sell the bodies and souls Of other men
aud women, many ofwhom we're not black
is hardly worthy of the speculation Of sa-
cred. 1t may be profitable to command the
labors Of others for a scanty supply Of
food aud clothing, but il hardly comes un-
der the list Of things which an oDighten-
cd and liberal age would deem sacred.
But to that class who would fly in the face
Of religion and humanity. aud breed ne
groes as they would cattle, for their labor
or for sale to others, evil is good, and
good is evil. The liberaliiy OF the age
has been too much for conservative securi-
ty so far as buying aud selling human
beings is concerned, but conservatism is
not yet hbeplized. Ii negroes may not
be owned, they may be kept down and
compelled to labor for less wages than
white men, il these conservatives can have
their way, thereby damaging also the la
Dor market Of white men.
Conservative security in every respect
means the conservation Of the few ut the
expense Of the many. Ii means the So
cnriiy of class against the fair eompo-
tiiion OF the world, aud would preserve
the same by amusing others. II is the
security that the nobility requires against
the people and masters against slaves. and
has no business in free country.-[Shel-

Union SoIdiers' and Sailors National
Convention.

Union Soldiers and Sailors National
Convention.
The Soldiers and Sailors Convention
which met at Chicago on Tuesday was a
grand success. The utmost harmony and
ensllpsihsm prevailed. Generals IIawley,
plcsssnson, Sicklos, Bairchild, Cochrane,
logan, and others, made speeches Tho
resolutions are brief, but uncquivocal In
their patriotism and devotion TO tho Union
and the Government and fAe policy Of
tho Republican party. They iudorse
General Grant, and are severe on the bolt
ing Senators. They were unanimously
adopted amid cheers for Grant. We sub.
join them:
Resoiped, That We, tho soldiers and
sailors, steadfast now as ever TO tho Union
and flag. fully recognizing the claims OF
Gen. Ulysses =. Grant 10 tho confidence
Of the American people, and believing
that the victories won under his guidance
In war, will be illustrated by him in peace
by such measures as shall secure the fruits
OF our exertiona and the restoration Of
tho Union upon loyal basis. declare il
as our deliberate conviction that he Is tho
choice of the soldiers aud sailors of the
Union for the Office Of President Of the
United States. ar,
Resoipsd, That in the maintenance Of
those principles which underle our Gov
ernment. and for which we fought during
a four years war, We pledge our earnest and
active support to the Republican party as
the only political organization, which, In
our Judgment, is true 10 the principles of
loyalty, liberty and equality before the
law.
Resolved, That speaking for ourselves
and the soldiers aud sailors who imperil-
cd their lives to preserve the Union, we
believe that the impeachment of Andrew
johnson by the House Of Representatives
for high crimes and misdemeanors in Of
fee, and his trial before the United States
Senate, have presented unmistakable
proofs Of his guilt, aud that whatever
may be the judgment Of the tribunal be-
fore which he is arraigned, the verdict Of
guilty will be returned by the people, and
we regard any Senator who has voted for
his aequittal as falling short Of the prop
or discharge Of his duty in this hour Of
the nations trial, and as unworthy of the
confidence of brave and loyal people.
Resoired, That tho soldiers and sailors
recognize no difference between the native
and adopted citizens, aud they demand
that tho Government protect naturalized
citizens abroad as we'll as those Of native
birth. ~ t

Friday Morning. May 90. 1888.


The csucussing and canvassing among
the delegates to the National Repabliean
Convention, gathered at Chicago on
Wednesday, was earnest and lively, though,
40 far a. could DO determined, not much
change was effected In the prospects Of
the candidates, excep. that il Is believed
tho chances Of Wade had been somewhat
improved. aud Il IL certain he VIII lead on
the Grst ballot. II Is certain the boiling
Republican Senators will not be read out
Of thu party BY formal resolution. Il Is
universally conceded that General Grant
will Do nominated by reclamation.
The Indiana delegation organised as
follows Chairman. Governor Henry s.
Lane, ex Senator aud President Of the
First National Republican Convention;
Secretary, u. W. Hatford, Of the Indi-
annapolis Journal; Member Of the Com
mittee on Credentials, John q. Albert, Of

nixation, Geo. A. Buskirk, Of Monroe

X. Steele, Of Parke; for Vice President Of
the Convention, Gen. W. Q. Gresham, Of
Floyd county; for Secretary Of the Con-
vontiou, Q. +. Hogate, of Hendricks
county. For the member from Indiana
on the National Committee there was a
ballot resulting as follows: O. NJ. Allen, Of
Knox county, Is votes; s. T.. Powell, Of
Henry, votes, Judge Buskirk, of Monroe,
/ vote. On tho question Of finance,
there was q general understanding that
the resolutions on that subject 10 the
Indiana State platform, should be the
guido for their committeeman. II was
also the sentiment Of the delegation that
any extreme measures looking to q pro-
scription Of the an,i-impeachment Sena-
tors should be avoided.
Alta meeting Of the Ohio delegation
Gov. Lee reported series Of resolutions,
smbodying the views which he should
urge upon the Platform Committee. The
FIRST denied the right Of secession, tho
second affirmed tho wisdom Of the recon
struction policy Of Congress, the third
denounced johnson for having commit
ted treason to the party, usurped legisla-
tive functions, refused 10 execute the
laws, melted ubOrdinaies to disobey them,
denounced Congress, and done his best to
defeat every proper effort at reconstruction.
The fourth thanks the soldiers and sailors,
and urges care for their families. The
fifth declares that the national debt must
be paid fully 10 accordance with law and
honesty. The sixth urges economy and
equal taxation, and tho last aiirms the
right Of aliens to transfer their allegiance
aud citizenship to this country. These
met with general approval, and the mem.
bers for Ohio on the Platform Committee
Of the Convention we're instructed to act
in conformity with them. Not one word
was said in them on the subject Of i'm.
parchment.

labored in his feeble way to prove that he
was not so ignorant as folks might think
he was, and that Railroad Companies
were not required by law to fence their
roads, but were made liable to pay for
stock they killed or injured if they neg
lected to build the fence. No doubt he
will tell you there is no law requiring
people to keep their hands off their neigh
boris property; but if they steal it, there
is law to punish them. This profound
logic will equally apply in either case.
