Senator Trumbull--A Another of the
''Reformers.'

The great lights of reform are in
trouble. They advocate a reform in
the civil administration of the coun-
try, but find it impossible TO cover
mp their own dishonest practices
from the public gaze. Chief among
these so-called reformers are Sena-
tors Schurz md DoolitlIe and Trum-
bull. Reform" is their battl, cry
against the election Of every Re-
publican candidate from General
Grant down to the Assembly nomi-
nee. They say wo must have hon.
est men in Office to save the country
from financial ruin. But what can
be done to save Schurz and D0olit.
tie and rrumbull from the ignomin.
Gus fate that seems to await them ?
First Senator Schurz stands con-
victed of swindling a number of his
own countrym at WATERFOWL in
this State, in 1861, by fraudulent
transactions and TO save his Senate
rial honor from sudden disgrace, I'm
Gle Sam has been tardy in collecting
from the great reformer over thous-
and dollars due for services 'not rem
dered" while Minister TO Spain dur
ing the early part of Lincoln's first
administration.
Then Senator Doolittle, the "earn-
est man." is proved guilty, having
been involved in a cotton steal dur
ing the war. We published some
weeks since the DooIittle Conatty
letters showing Mr. Doolittle's COR
nection with this affair, and have yet
to see that he has proved his title to
honesty clear. The Springfield Re
publican, Greeley paper, thus sums
up his case
"Now that Mr.. DooIitle has submitted his
ueieHse,tHe REPUBLICAN mus Hsel CoHslTaln-
ed TO believe that he did write those letters as
charged, and that in doing so he has trifled
with his reputation, and temporarily, if not
permanently, disabled himself TO render any
useful service TO the country in public life"
Now Senator Trumbul has one of
his transactions laid before the pub
lie which places the other great re-
former in no enviable position.
