CAMPAIGN NOTES FROM THE PRESS.

This is the very indiscreet way in which
The Philadelphia Press speaks OF pet Administration
scheme "The Enforcement bill has faied and we are
not sorry The measure itself was OF doubtful propr
etv and the means that taken 70 pass II decidedly
wrong"
The Cincinnati Commercial thinks Charles
Summers dreadful speech about Grant had no more ef
feet in the philadelphia Convection than 1t would have
had in checking the mOvemenls OF % an army. ent II Is
smashing things in the country Inc inquiry i9r II is
extraordinary, and the effect Of 1t Is tremendous"
The Pittsburgh Post, the leading Pennsyl-
vania advocate OF straight ticket abandons its hostility
70 Mr. Greeley and thinks is the duty Of the Demo
cracy to unite on any available candidate who can be
Gus party Of Capitalization, now and forever"
This is the apologetic way in which The Gin
,inn1H Commercial audes to the senior member Of the
enterprising firm Of Leet &stOckng; President Grant
innoceny gave that little ftter which proved to be
was sweet boon, and innocent as loves young
dream"
The SpringfeH Republican says: "Gen. But
lers initial Grafton upon the Grant stump is awaited
with much interest It supposed that he will explain
what he meant by writing Mr. Jones 9f Wisconsin that
Grants election would putt in man without head or
heart Indifferent 10 human suffering and mpotent TO
govern"
The Richmond inquirer is abandoning the
thirdcket party thus gives reasons for change OF
heart The signs OF the times-the iervor with which
the nominations OF the Cincinnati Convention have been
received the South and their rapid growth IN popu-
Iarty at the North-teach our duty, and that Is 70

The Philadelphia Press thus explains the Ad-
ministration triumph in Oregon: "Oregon was re-
deemed the other day from It's lapse into the slough OF
Democracy and much Of the credit Is doubtless due TO
the Efforts Of Attorney-Gen. Williams formerly United
states Senator from that state. He bad been at home
several weeks before the election laborng in the Re
publican cause
A. bo-;4otiry poliey Of many
Journals in regard to supporting Greeley and Brown,
The Utica Bee bravely raises the Reform banner and
says: "If the Grand Army clique orthe Union League
CLIQUE or the Baltimore clique choose 10 pin the names
OF Greeley and Brown 70 their banners, IL Is well III
they do this, it viii not in the least change
the issue. 1t for Greeley that the people VIII vote,
not for any party OF clan"
Speaking OF the Liberal movement in that
city, The Springfield Q) Register says: The organiza-
ton OF the Liberal Republican Club IN this city starts
forward with grand impetus. Last night 256 Repub-
leans enrolled themselves under the Liberal movement
and declared their devotion 20 Greeley aud Brown Po-
htical history such unanimity and enthusiasm
Two hundred and nfty sK enrolled IN one day, IA one
city, and all Republicans"
The Charleston Is. c. RepubHeda, Republican
Journal which repudates Grant and supports Greeley
and Brown, auding to the growth Of Liberal sentiment
says: Among the better portion Of the Republicans OF
the State, there has been marked change Even here
IN the city OF ChaIleston among our eooted eltlAesl
there is feeling at work in favor OF the CINCINNATI
South Carolina might for Grant but II there Is long
and strong pull there is proba0Alty that IL VIII ho''
The Chicago Tribune has these words of
coincidence for the journal Of Civilization" " Har-
pers Weekly is bad way, owing TO the sudden con-
version Of John A. Logan. Several cacaures had been
prepared in which Logan represented as sneakng
behind sumner schurz, Trumbull, and Greeley. Since
new set will have 70 be made in which the prqprletors
can have some compensation by arranng Gen logan IA
full rementas with the goddess OF liberty pattlng hlm
on the head, or Gen. Grant and his military FANNY
handing the muster-ron 10 the recruit"
The Detroit V0lksJlat, one Of the ablest and
most influential German newspapers in the North
West, thus emphatcaIy accepts Mr.. Greeley;
1--WE do not belong TO the admirers OF Greeley,
but personal differences must, in such case
submit 10 the general interest. whatever Greeley
might formerly have said or done against the
Democratic party Is no longer OF any consequence.
He has put himself on purely Democratic ground oy ne
consists OF Democratic prncipesl and Dy the sApiaha
ton in his letter Of acceptance he Is now IN IN ms pTn
he may call himself, Democrat"
The Philadelphia Post gives these pungent
for repudiatng Grantism under tho false name
Of Repubhcanism: II Repubncsnism means the de-
bauchery OF the public service the prescription OF inde-
pendent Republicans, military Interference with the
laws, persecution OF the helpless and reconstructed
South the corruption Of Congress by patronage and the
creation OF laws 10 enable President 10 reeect
himself, then we want none Of it. THIS u tne hepuD-
cansm which we ind embodied IN the Authorization
OF Grant and for that IL our uneomprOn-
isng hostility in the belief that Horace Greeleys elec
ton will be gin and better OF the RepuOuc ana
restore TO the country that Of when mas peeh
for Il years deprived"
The Southern Home journal published at
Charlotte, n. C., and edited by Gen. D. d. HILL THINKS
Mr. Greeley's letter liberal, frank generous and
manly" and adds; We think that the Baltimore Con-
venton safely accept him with this letter and the
platform upon which IL stands He has come mere than
half way with extended hand 10 meet the ana
oppressed South and can oOnstentyl with our IDEAS
OF honor and chivary step forward 70 welcome hm NE
know certainly that the election OF Cen Hrant means
robbery outrage, oppression. We DeeNe InAt the ee
condition TO try experiments 10 Is possible thA Deuo-
erat can be elected but IL is probable properly,
me- and liberty are at stake with u.s. We cannot shorI
70 take any risk and ought 20 say 10 the NoTthefn
Democracy that We will not take any "
Here Is the unsatisfactory compliment which
the Woman Suffrage Plank"so called because IL Is not
for Woman sufrage-n the philadelphia platform gets
from one OF the most conspicuous advocates OF thAt pr
cpe in the newspaper press Of the country We quote
from The Golden Age II IL something that me women
got recognition at the Philadelphia Convention; Of
