The Renominees hereabout are trying
hard to make themselves believe that the
election Of Governor Jacob Of West Viz
g,nia is iu some inexplicable manner a
quasi victory for Grant Just how to do
this, they scarcely seem to know True
they have invented the pleasing fiction TIC
that Jacob is opposed to Greeley, but like
a great many other propositions from the
same source this lacks the essential ele'
uent Of truth, as the friends Of that gen.
tlemsn we'll know. Should the Constitu
ton be carried, the magnitude and extern
ofthis endorsement Of Grant can be easily
figured up. Among its other fruits is the
election Of two Greeley members of Cong
ress. and q third most bitterly opposed to
Graut, the election Of q Democratic Gov
