When the Republicans in Congress
brought forward their scheme to amend
the Constitution so that no Judge
should be eligible to the office of Presi-
dent they were aiming at Judge Davis.
They should now amend their amend
ment so that no editor or any other
man should be eligible during the life
time of Grant. Another amendment
for the benefit of Prince Fred, heir ex-
pectant, could then be adopted if the
ofice-holders interests are in that direc-
ton.

EDs. PLAIN DEALER:-As you are
not mixed up in the fight going OH be-
tween the Liberal and Liberal Repub-
leans, take the LIBERTY of asking you
to publish this, heading and all:
The Two G's, Greeley and
The first G in 1881 made his way on
FOOT to New York, poor, ragged boy
without cent in his pocket or friend
in the city. BY his honest industry and
integrity he has acquired competency
and made himself the first newspaper
man of the United States, if not in the
world. The more honest of the Re-
publican party have made him their
candidate for President of tho United
States.
The other G from early boyhood was
the pet of the government. BY the
influence of the member of Congress
from his district he was sent to that hot
bed of Goldfish aristrocracy, West Point,
where he was fed, clothed and educa-
ted at the expense Of the people Of the
United States. When circumstances
compelled him to resign his position in
the army to save himself from dishon-
orable dismissal, the fact was demon
strated that he was not competent to
make for himself an ordinary living, but
for years ''laid around loose" subsis-
ting on the charity of his relatives and
friends. The accidents of war threw
him to the surface and he is now Presi-
dent Of the United States, in which po-
sition, in the three years last past, at
salary of $50, coo year, he has accu-
mulated a fortune of one to one and
half millions Of dollars. The one acqui-
red fortune by honest aud unrcmitting
industry, the other black mailing the
office seekers of his party.
Which IF these two men will the
honest laboring Republican masses of
the country support?
This is the question for every labor
ing man to think IF between now and
election. LIBERAL REPUBLICAN.

The Cleveland Herald says II GRACE
Greeley has not single qualification
save personal integrit Necessary for
a practical executive Of even turn
pike company. 1t seems to us that
personal integrity" isa very important
commodity, very much wanted in the
present Administration, and its not
being there has cost the American peo-
pie hundreds Of millions Of dollars. If
Greeley has no other qualificati on than
integrity, lie is much to be preferred to
Grant who has neither integrity nor
capacity.

The DEBORAH Republican speaking Of
the Chicago Tribune says:
ssThe motives Of the Tribune are very
transparent and very base. Grant did
not make the editor door keeper to a
Kitchen cabinet" and he has been in
dignant ever since
Judging by the criterion set up by
the Republican its motives are very
base too for its editor is door-keeper to
q Kitchen cabinet to wit, the DEBORAH
post Office, and the Republican Office,
has sung peans to the Administration
ever since. The office-holders are ex-
pected to praise Grant; that is why SO
many editors are post masters and the
reason why those who think there are
better men than they, are 'sore-heads"
in ofice-holders parlance.

The Davenport and st. Paul
Road.

Because it is always best that people
should know just what they have to do
to accomplish an object which they
conceive to be to their interest or benefit
we give the following figures showing
the amount of aid each line can secure
as more potent argument than words.
All may study them with profit. The
advantages this line has is II miles the
shortest and will run through better
wheat country than the other; the adj,
vantage of the New Hampton line is in
having triflc more aid per mile, and
the necessity Of the Davenport and St.
Paul Company to secure every dollar
possible, to prevent the Pennsylvania
Central from farther cncumbcring its
road with liens and liabilities fer cash
advances. The advantage Of the Ne"
Hampton liue over this may be over
come by united aud vigorous effort on
the part Of the people on this line.
Shall it be made? A prompt and eff.
cient affirmative response wins the day.

President Grant, on the 18th ult.,
gave audience to the Sioux Chief Red
Cloud and his delegation of Indians.
The President told them, through an
interpreter, that we desired to do all we
could t. advance the interests of the
Indians, and did not wish to remove
them from their present territory with
out their consent; but if they will go
to their Cherokee country VIC will set
apcrt lands for them and their children.
1t is a large country, where they will
W suffer from cold. We will buid
houses for their chiefs, and give them
all shelter, and supply them with pro.
duce and cattle, and encourage them in
raising stock, and appoint for this pur-
pose either Indians or white men. We
will also teach them how TO read and
speak English anu otherwise contribute
to their comfort. All treaty obligations
we have entered into with them will be
kept by US as long as they respect them.
