,pN GRANT AND THF GOLD GAMBLERS

Whatever may be the facts 10 relation 70
Gen. Grants alleged operations in goia anu
government bonds, of one thing there can
be no doubt: His character as chief mag's'
tra.e Of the nation has been compromised
greatly to the regret OF all rightminaeo
peonle. II is not ct all probable that
President duly impressed with the dignity
and responsibilities of his position would
ever have been placed in such an attitude
as Grant finds himself. That he has hao
interviews with Fisk aud Gould and Coroin,
known Wall street operators and gamblers
in the national credit, is beyond question:
The President himself admits that he al
lowed himself to be interviewed last summer
on the probable financial policy OF his ao'
ministration by Fisk, and felt it necessary
to argue with him against the untairness Of
a request which any of Mr.. Grants pFede'
cessors would have resented as an insult,
provided any man had had the efrontery to
make it of them. 1t is not enough to say
Fisk and Gould are brszen.faced and CON
ceited enough to thrust themselves into 'n0
presence and press their schemes "p0D
attention of anybody; ifso, the s''s"
reasop vbv the President, if imbued with d
nroner ssnse of the proprieties Of his sta'loh'
should have Stunned them as he wOuid d
eontsgion Besides even such characters
as Fisk and Gould, will respect official Dig
nifty when it is above suspicion. :,
Neither the President nor his friends
need expect him to come out OF this contro
rarsv with his character untarnished. III
stands today involved in dispute on
oue,tion OF veracity with men whom tn
public regard with but little or no respect
but who ye, have it in their power to oau'
it to be believed that he has acted disre
u,ably, by relating series OF facts 81
circumstances which point 80 clearly to II
truth of their charges as to make the fre'
dsnt and his friends feel it necessary
make some sort Of defense or expanatlo
Indeed hundreds Of Mr.. Grants polite
friends believe that he has acted improper
md all must regret that his indiscretlc
have involved him in a controversy ir
which he cannot escape without some 90
ave to his reputation. His liability 20
involved in such unpleasant perdieame
appears to be inherent This is NOT an
cideut. A man occupying his position,
bobuobs with horse jockeys, sensatic
Newspaper men, accepts presents from
mos. nybody, of anything from box
cigars to a 100000 mansion, and tray
over the country on exhibition tours, can
be expected to be free from compheat'
with such men. Fisk knows and ap
c;stes the advantages which are in tins Il
ner acquired over government ohlcers'
hence he publishes in a New YORK p'
that General Grant and his family
repeatedly accepted tritiing faVors az
hands, of such nature as are peri'
proper among friends"
1t would seem that if the President
at all quick to learn needed lessons
would henceforth leave Oft his on
fonduess for his relatives and occAslo
decline to be the recipient OF such iaVo
