Hon. HORACE GREELEY.

Need restate the facts, so widely known,
that visited Albany in 1870 at the request of
the Union League Club expressly to oppose the
passage of that Tweed Charter-that made as
strong an argument against it as / could
before the Senate Committee on Cities-that |
attended the Senate's session that evening, and
at its close met the Republican Senators in the
side-rOOm of their Chamberlain | tried hard
to convince them that to pass 1%ced's Charter
was to crush out the anti-Tammany faction
and thus insure the reelection of Hoffman in
November-that this they could not, as Repub-
licans, afford to dO-that, in Difference to their
demur that they could not beat the Tweed
Charter if they tried, | went out and obtained
positive assurances from Senator Genet that
their opposing votes rendered its defeat GER
tainty If there be a shadow or pretense of
doubt Of all this, refer the caviler to Senator
1'hayer of Rensselaer,, who alone seemed to
concur with me throughout, and who next day
voted accordingly against the Tweed Charter.
The rest seemed to be somehow fettered,
blinded, or laboring under some strange in
fatuation. They came to no decision in my
presence; indeed, they talked as though their
action had already been foreclosed, so that
argument and entreaty were useless.
Fellow Citizens, might pile proof on proof
that these statements are correct but need II
The issue thus made up IL not of my seeking,
and have not been at liberty TO avoid it. 1t

INDIANA HEARD FROM.
An Original AbolitfOnist on Grant


In response to an invitation from a Lib
eral meeting in Indiana, ex-Congressman
Julian sent the following vigorous letter:1
am decidedly opposed to the re election
of General Grant, whose denomination,
through the most scandalOus abuses of fed
eral patronage, has become fOregOne con-
cluslOn. With the opinions | entertain of
his administration, and of the men who
have him in their keeping, l could not aid
in his election without SHINING against pO-
litical decency and my own self-respect. If
it were morally possible, | would support
him gladly, having no personal grievance
whatever to complain of, and sincerely re-
GREETING, as | do, the necessity which COM
pels a separation from political associations
in which l have labOred for many long
years, and through seasons of great national
danger. If no higher considerations had
appealed to me than my own selfish ambi-
ton, it can scarcely be necessary to say
that / would now be found at work for
General Grants re election as ZealOusly as
l shall oppose it; for the fact is perfectly
well known that the prizes of politics were
within my reach II had sought them this
fall through the regular machinery of the
Republican organization and the support of
the party in power. But in my past pOlit-
zeal life my desire for office has never been
strong enough to swerve me from my tideli-
ty to the truth, or my devotion to what l
believed to be principle, at whatever cost to
myself: and l am now too old to learn the
despicable arts of a time-server. As to
what is known as the Liberal Republican
movement, it is the natural product
of the times. 1t is at once moral and
political necessity, born of the general
decentralization of American politics,
and it is as impossible to avoid or sup
press it as it was to prevent the uprising Of
1913. Had the Republican party, having
accomplished the work that called it into
being, applied itself to the new and living
questions of the times, and resoluteiy set
Its face against political corruption and
public plumber; and had it fully tolerated
honest differences of opinion in its own
ranks. treating the question of Grants re-
nomination as an open one, instead of max

Judge Davis. and their denuciatiOn Of the
World for expressing its honest Judgment
in entire independence Of this intriguing
Scabal.
1t has been, says the World, our settled
wish that the Cincinnati convention should
not act or appear to act under any sort of
Democratic pressure, and we have, in eX-
pressing a preference for Mr.. Adams, at
least demonstrated that there is no united
attempt at Democratic dictatiOn, and have
saved the Liberal Republicans from the I'M
putation of acting as a mere side show to
the Democratic party. An attempt to re-
vive the system of nominating Presidential
candidates by congressional caucus, which
broke down in 1924 from its own rOttenness,
is a prepOsterOus anachreOnism.
The proclaimed purpose of the Cincin-
matt conventian is the reform OF govern
rment; and if the convention acts wisely it
will aim to present a candidate for Presi-
dent whe, with maximum of Republican
popularity and minimum of Democratic
hostility, possesses the highest qualitiea-
ton. Who, of ali the named candidates,
the World asks, combines these requisites
In so eminent degree as Mr.. Adams

make it necessary for them to make a
second choice. They did not select their
delegates to represent them in the conven-

both, Adams and Trumbull, without regard
to person or place.
