VETO OF THE WOMAN SUFFRAGE
REPEAL BnL.-As we predicted,
Gov. Campbell, Of Wyoming Terri
tory, has vetoed the woman suffrage
repeal act, on the ground that a
Legislative body cannot abridge or
take away rights and franchises
granted by a previous legislature"
He says he cannot forgetthe benefits
that have accrued to Wyoming
through woman suffrage, and could
not approve the bill. His message
is only three columnsi nlength but
his veto is absolute, and the ladies'
may rejoice and push on the great
fight for Woman suffrage Salt

BEHIND THE SCENES.

The following remarkable state
ment appears in the New York Her
aid of late date:
The question .e9 a coalition be-
tween the recalcitrant Republicans
and the Democratic leaders took a
remarkable shape tonight, and
Montgomery Blair, Senator Casserly
and a few other persons who carry
the Democratic burden on their
shoulders had a conference at the
house of Judge Field of the Su-
preme Court, to determine upon a
policy for the coming Presidential
canvass. The policy agreed upon
was fOrshadowed this morning in an
interview which Blair caused to be
inserted in an obscure paper in this
city. In his report. which reads as
if the son of the old Blair had some
time or other seen 4 printed speci-
,nen of an actual interview, the Hon.
Montgomery Blair says:
Grant Is nothing but a soldier.
His whole idea of Il Government is
that OF a camp. Grant loves power.
and that Is all he cares for. He is
not now, nor has he ever been a Re
publican. If he is anything at
heart he is a Democrat. He was a
necessity TO the Republican party.
Knowing his politics as we'll as l
did, l was III favor Of giving him the
Democratic nomination for the Presi-
deucv in l>6o. In fact, there was
considerable talk about this step at
that time, and it was not distasteful
To Grant. went to New York and
talked with Iillen, Sanford E.
Church and others. and they au-
thorized me TO offer Grantthe Demo
cratic nomination, which | did. but
Grant fooled NE. He WAS only CO.
Quetting with us. Washburn had
GOT hold OF him, and inst afterwards
Rawlings came ont with his Galena
speech. He would have taken the
Democratic nomination if he hadn't
got the Repubiican. but his good
sense told him that a Republican
nomination would more likely result
in hi, election, and 50 he took it, asa
mere matter OF business. He wan
ted power and that was all. Grant
is an ignorant man, but still he IS
able IL his way.

It would not much surprise us II
an attempt were made in Congress
this Winter to reconstruct Califor-
MIA. An industrious and persistent
effort has been made for some time
past to create the impression that We
were brutality treating the Cinnamon,
and the Los Angeles riot has done
much to strengthen this belief. The
meeting held III New York by the
Chamber Of Commerce the other
day. where it was reported that the.
lives of American merchants in
China would not be safe if We were
allowed to murder and maltreat

years ago, it will be remembered, the

frage upon US but afterwards re-
considered the vote at the solicitation
Of the Pacific Coast Republicans.
Now that California has gone Repub-
lican, there Will be less fear Of in
juring the dominant party by giving
the Cinnamon votes, and now that
negro suffrage is an accomplished
