From The Syracuse Standard
The attack of the Administration journals
upon Mr. Greeley Is comprised under two heads Ihey
win attempt TO laugh him out OF the campaign and they
for democratic aid Both of these methods will utterly
fail To the last consideration we do not mean parucu
larry TO aude The decision as to whether or not the
Democratic PARTY will support Mr.. Greeley rests with
the Democratic party. Republicans who believe ~
carefully refrain FROM any attempt to influence Demo
orats His record Ia known and read OF over the
whole country. He has been an open and manly OPP
ponent OF the Democracy But the issues upon which
he fought that party are settled Their conclusions are
imbedded In the Constitution Upon living issues-the
Issues OF amnesty OF purity in the administration OF
public affairs OF constitutional limitation OF the Presi-
Dental term and upon certain other questions unneces
sary TO specify, there seems TO be reason why
the Democratic party, II it really desires change OF
rulers may not rally the nomination of Mr.. Greeley
AS this however ~ matter for Democrats themselves
to determine is not decorous that Republicans should
remark that the current OF Democratic sentiment as
already exhibits itself seems to tend strongly in the
direction of Democratic Endorsement OF Mr. Greeeys
claims. That party at least will not be likely 70 take s

we should feel little hope OF success But II the Phade,

Mr.. Greeley while we have confidence in the patriotism

AN AWFUL DILEMMA.
The leading Democratic papers and pOllti-
clans had pretty much made up tner minds TO swallow
the Cincinnati nominations, whatever they might be-
But they had serious thought Of being invited to
swallow Horace Greeley. And yet, what better can the
Democracy do Alone they utterly poWeress 10 de-
feat the reelection Of President Grant. To nominate
Democratic candidate against Greeley them would In ts
practical and immediate consequences, be equivalent 10
nominating Gen. Grant himself 1t is difficult strait
the Democracy find themselves placed in. To take
Greeley, is TO take pill such Democracy never TOOK
before-one which may and may kill. While to re-
ject Greeley, is certain death. 1t is awful dilemma
for O party to be in, where Its leaders Obliged to
choose between possible life with humiliation, and GER
tain death How they will finally choose it is not easy
predict and the country Will watt with impatience.

we feel satisfied IL will meet the approval OF every
participant in the Cincinnati ConVention WHAT

final triumph of right over wrong
