PARTY WIrHOUTALEApER

| One of the noticeable political signs of
the times is the falling away of the men that
were prominent III the management of the
republican party. 10 fact, the party. or
what there is left of it, has now no pre-
eminent leader. Henry J. RAYMOND was
undou btedy tbs man who did the most in
the way OF organization for the party. In
every campaign he was q commanding man
| But Raymond is dead and leaves none to fill
his place. Thaddeus Stevens marshsled the
party IL Congress, but he, too, is dead; and
now there is no imperial voice that carries
the radical Junto i'll one direction. George
Ashnun, VINO did more behind the scenes
than The world new of, and who was almost
King al national conventions, is also dead.
Banks, who used to tell the Young men Of
Massachusetts that success is q duty" is q
sorro~ful failure in every way. q poor beg.
gar in the party, willing to pick up the
smallest crumps OF politics. Butte: has be-
come absolutely powerless, and is now only
a sort of lend man" for the troupe. Thur
low Weed was gone to grass completely.
He is as dead as forney, and Forney is as
dead as the National hteiiigencer. Horace
Greeley Is alive, and that is about all
Judging from his recent efforts, we should
say that the time has come q. last when he
can safely Ego a-hshing."
Thus are the old roadsters Of radicalism
fallen away. Thus poweress and morgan
lied is the republican party. Such men
Schenck and Schurz and Wilson, and Dana
are not to be considered possible leaders.
In fact there are none, either actual or pos
sible. The party has gone TO decay, iesv
ing as lagacy an lmbeeIle, undIgnIhed,
corrupt administration. 1t has had too
much Sumnerism, too much But!erism, and
the like. Even Colfaxs smiles will not
suffice to bring the corpse to life again.

behalf while relentlessly pursuing the presi-
dency The old warhorse of the party

and glory of the oldeu time. 1t has brains

the administration could do would be to
