Politics in Chicago.

The great fire IN Chicago has driv'
en- all desire for a bitter political
campaign out of the minds Of the
people OF that city. BY general con-
sent, the Central Committee OF each
political party has conferred with
each other and an agreement has
been arrived at in the presentation OF
d Union ticket, composed OF Repub-
Leans and Democrats. The Repub.
licans are allowed the Mayor and the
Democrats the Treasurer, and the
other offices are divided SO rs to Sc
cure majority of the City Council
and County Board of Supervisors to
the Republicans. Joseph Medill, of
the Tribune, will be the Mayor and
David A. Gage the Treasurer. This
is an arrangement that cannot fail TO
be satisfactory to all except mere po.
liticians. The people OF that city
are in no mood now for fierce poll
ticnl quarrel, nor can they afford to
engage in it. The Journal highly and
warmly commends the new move.
ment and characterizes the ticket as
composed OF honorable and upright
men, without "scalawag" on it.

The appointment Of Henry CleNs
& Co. to the position OF bankers
abroad for all foreign countries OF the
United States and the Treasury Dc.
partment, in place OF Barring Bros.
was made some time ago, and has
been tayorably commented on by
foreign as wei. as home journals. 1t
is proper that the American Govern
ment should give the preference to
American men, and it is equally
proper that Henry Clews Il Co.
should thus be honored with the con-
tiiencc OF the Government.

party Nominations.

In some counties of this aud other
States, the nominations for county
and township officers are made by
direct vote OF the voters OF the party.
In scme other counties, The system is
modified SO as to embrace features OF
the Convention and Primary Elec.
tion. This county has heretofore adj
.hered to the Caucus and Convention
system, although some OF the town
ships have selected delegates to
County Conventions, and instructed
those delegates, by direct vote OF the
Ane,nbers OF the party. In Toledo,
aud We do not know but in other
townships in the county, the town.
ship officers are nominated III the
same way.
At the late Republican Conycn.
tion OF the County, one OF the dele.
gates from Columbia, We believe, in.
troduced the following resolutions,
looking toward better system Of
making nominations:
!. '.Resoloed, That the County Central
Committee be instructed to give hereafter
INT least four weeks notice Vt the County
Convention.
> That the said Committee also appoint
a day on which the township Ca ucuses shall
% held throughout the county, aud notice
bs given to the Town sl.ip Central Commit.
ties Of tn, appointed day.
& That the Caucu.es he LeiI ut he II ia |
ifnces Ut holding elections.
4. kesolred, That the present County
Convention appoint Chuirmun for each
lowAship Central Committee, whose du.y
Shall he TO cooperate with tSss County Gen.
Arnl Committee.
No one can tell what disposition
the Convention wN,ld have mad. of
the resolutions had 1t had time to
discuss them, but the :,ateness of the
siour when they were introduced pre-
cluled any definite action on the
part Of the Convention.
The resolutions. as introduced, are
not meritless nor objec,ionless
While it is very evident that the
mass OF the Republicans OF this coun-
~ are favorable 10 some change in

yet no system has yet been proposed

There is some hope of Justice be-
ing done to the New YORK thieves,
after all, Tweed and others at the
ring are already in arrest and &C.
tive measures are being taken to pun>
,sh them. The good citizens OF that
city have been misrulei long enough,
and they seem determined now to
take an active part, themselves, in
the control of the city affairs. For
the misrule with which they have
been cursed, they have but them
selves 30 blame. 1t those interested
ia good government had taken here
,otorc and always the part thew
ought to have taken in municipal at
fairs, the ''rlng" never could have OBJ
tanned the mastery. People who
take no part in politics because poll
tics is demo, alizing, sooner or later
learn to their sorrow that The per-
sonal activity in politics OF the best
citizens OF the land is ths only saliva
ton tor themselves and the country.
No man has any valid excuse tor alb
scntiny himself from political con-
tests. Politics, per Sc, are not demon.
olizing. 1t is only because the best
men in the community turn that part
of their duty over to improper hands.
We hope those citizens OF New
York, who really desire and need
good government, will be taught by
the lesson they are now learning that
it they want to he well governed
they must govern Themselves.

One attempt has been made, By ~
interiopef, to set hp9 grog.siscp N
the place, but thecitizens soon abated
the nuisance In very summary
manner, likely to be a significant
warning to all future enterprising
individuals who hold such close
communings with spirit-Tappings.
There arefiveorganized Protestant
Churches in the place, which ought
to be sufficient to exercise all the
runl-deviIs that mightseek to possess
the inhabitants, o. ratbeE prevent
the possession In the first instance.
The organization 6f q Templar's
Lodge would rather seem to be a
superiority in such q place, and a
reflection upon the churches.
The town is handsomely laid out
on the south bank of the lie Poudre.
The streets are wide and regular,
with a public park in the center Of
the town, which containsa miniature
lake supplied from the river. Adj
joining the town there Is a beautiful
little island, in the river, almost
circular, and l should think about
one and ahalf miles In circumference.
There is hut q narrow channel on the
downward side, easily bridged; and
the island Is thickly studded with II
growth OF large cottonwood trees. 1t
ID proposed to turn this island into
another park which can be done at
comparatively small expense. This
will make u magnificent driving
park. ~
The buildings are OF good order.
Most Of them are wood, but the
majority are two-story, tastily built,
neatly painted, and substantially put
up. The people here build ms If they
had faith in their undertaking, and
meant business. They Ere not over
stocked with stores, groceries, &C., as
some other new towns, but have just
enough to supply the wants Of the
colony. or course, as the colony
increases these will. The stores are
a part Of the colony, and the men,
beers Of the colony get their goods at
a One-third reduction on the prices.
There are no churches (buildings)
ut present, buta town hall serves for
all denominations. Steps are being
taken, however, to meet this def
cheney soon. Butthe several denom-
nations are Weak, and 1t will be
somewhat ola struggle.

are not able to pay, and whose ne

suine.''
