THE Chicago Journal says: CIV
erybody believes Mr.. Boutwell, to be
perfectly honest and very able"
Everybody don't believe any such
thing. On the contrary, there are
people who do believe that. Mr..
Boutwell, is neither honest nor able
for the place he holds Dubuque
Telegraph.
10 round mp its assertion, the
Telegraph should have added that
those "peoplc" who, in the face of
Mr.. Boutwell's unimpeachable rec
ord Of integrity and unsclfish pat
riotism, earned through years OF
public service in his own State and
the nation, and never attacked unit,
now, still persist, without cause o.
proof, IN denouncing him as d
inaye, have given the very best Of
reasons why they themselves need
watching, even if their former ca
reer had not already furnished tht
uroof of such necessity.

One of the most gratifying re-
suits of the election in Indiana,
compensating in a great degree for
the loss of the Republican State
ticket, if it is lost, is the defeat of
that disreputable demagogue and
brawler, Dan Voorhees,, for Con.
gress. Everybody remembers tho
decided and defiant stand he took
on the floor of the House, last
spring, against the nomination of
Greeley by the Democrats, and the
scorching contempt and scorn which
he poured on the head Of the Sage
Of Chappaqua. His constituents, 1t
seems, also made note of, and have
expressed their contempt for anoth-
err scene in which Voorhees, figured
at indianapolis, couple Of weeks
since, where, in introducing this
same Greeley to the crowd, this
same Voorhees, fairly gushcd with
sycophantic adulation of Greeley.
For once Dan voorhees, miscalcula-
ted the stoaachic endurance of his
followers, and pays for the offense
by enforced retirement. May it he

Death Of Mr.. Seward.

Papers received this morning

at his home in Auburn, n. Y, yes
terday, Of Hon. VIM. II. Seward,
Ex-Governor of New York, ex-
Secretary Of State under Lincoln
and Johnson, and one of the fore
most of American statesmen. This
intelligence will be received with
profound regret by the country, for
whatever may be said Of his late
political course, Mr.. Seward was y
great man. Our country has pro-
duced few more accomplished and
successful diplomatists, and his inn
press is left upon our legislation
and history in inetfacable charac-
tiers

MR. GREELEY having declared in
one of his speeches that the Repub-
licans Of Maine expended more than
100000 in the purchase Of votes at
the late election, Hon. James G.
Blaine, chairman of the Republican
committee, responds that the entire
expenses Of the campaign were a
little over $4,000, every dollar OF
which was used to pay speakers,
distribute documents, 1Sc. Mr.
Blaine says:
81 arraign Mr.. Greeley, therefore.
as the slanderer of the Republicans
of Maine, a party ofas gallant and
true men as ever cast an unpur-
chased or unpurchasablc vote
Will Mr.. Greeley undertake to
prove what he said to be true, 0,
will he retract, and apologize for a
gross SANDER uttered against the
Republicans Of great Statc?''

The New York Tribune, speak
ing of the Georgia election and the
negroes, says of the latter that "ma-
ny of. them concluded to wait till
November before voting at all. p
Tie latest news from that State in
dicates that the negroes were as
sisted in arriving at that conclusion
by guns, pistols and sAbres. in the
bands Of Mr.. Greeley's white allies.
The latest style Of piling up big
Democratic Victories was success
fully carried ont i'll Georgia. 1t is
simple, direct and effectual, con
sisting merely in Democrats arming
themselves and shooting down, or
driving from the polls all who have
the temerity to attempt to vote the
other way.

Ok the 29th day of November,
1870, Mr.. Greeley said, in the New
York Tibune..
The Cincinnati Commercial will
be good enough to inform it's read
crs that there is no office in the uni
verse that would be any inducement
to Horace Greeley to forego or post
pone his advocacy of protection to
home industry.
Now, we ask any honest Liberal
what he thinks of the man who, in
less than two years after this en-
phatic declaration, is found accept
ing the nomination for the Presi-
deney from convention which pur-
posely eyaaes the question of pro-
lection, and who, on the stump, dis
tjnctly pledges himself, if elected,
not to exercise his constitutional
veto to save from defeat the princi-
pie he affects to have SO much at
heart Can our Liberal friends
reconcile the above. paragraph with
Mr.. Grecley's present position on
any hypothesis which assumes him
to be honest
Buchanan County bulletin. [volume] (Independence, Iowa) 1869-1891, 1872-10-11
Mr.. Greeley's Future.

1t has been for some time appar-
cnt to close observers Of political
events, that Mr.. Grecley's election
to the Presidency was without the
range Of possibility. This has led
to the indulgence in spcculations
regarding his probable political
course when the present contest is
past. 1t is not unlikely that Mr..
Greeley may resume control OF the
N-fL,ne, but it needs no great
amount of sagacity to perceive that
his candidacy will have untitled
him for assuming that power and
influence rs y journalist which he
possessed before lie was "pois"ned
and paralyzed" by the Presidential
itch. He is less likely, in the flu
ture than III the past, to discuss
men and measures dispassionately
lie will view things through the
spectaclcs Of his disappointed ambi-
ton rather than will, the clear Wis
ion Of disinterestcd Judgment, aud
his own political grievances are
quite likely to give bias to his
opinions. Mr. Greeley will not
probably return to the Republican
organization, but win seek leader
ship among his new allies, the De-
mocracy. In his recent swing
around the circle he has certainly
developed enough Of demagognism,
Inconsistency, and disregard for cv-
erytl,inS but success. to fit him for
such leadership, and the Democrat
ic party will probably be willing to
condone his assaults upon it in the
past, to secure his permanent iden-
tification with its fortunes. AS for
the Irih>t.e, it has, during the cam
paisn, contested successfully the
palm Of indccency and partisan
recklessness with Pomeroy's Demo
crai, and, in view Of the ISLANDERS,
falsehoods and vituperation heaped
by it upon the Republican party and
candidates, nobody will be surpri'
scd to see it assume its appropriate
place among the INSCRIPTIONS Or
gans of the Democracy. The Re-
publican party viii assuredly not
regard the detection Of it or Mr..
Greeley us fatal to its usefulness or
success.

WE are t"lerably sure that Iowa
is going for Greeley, but could Carl
Schurz be induced, after the Penn
sylvania election, to deliver speech
es in Kcokuk, Burlington, Davcn-
port, Sioux City and Des Moines,
there would be no more doubts in
our mind CT carrying Iowa by a
large majority fqv Greeley and re-
form, than there is to-day OF carry
ing the Keystone State.
The above item, from the Council
Bluffs Times, is very funny reading
in the light Of the recent elections.
We apprehend that Carl Schurz's
speeches in Iowa "attor the Penn.
sylvania election" would he like his
feelings Immediately succeeding the
CINCINNATI Convcntion,-keycd or
the minor chord. We doubt if thu

Political Notes.

MI +. w. LudWlS, one OF the Greeley
candidates for elector in Missouri, has
written letter declining to serve, on
the ground that the cause Of reform
would receive a deadly blow in Demo
cratic success. He supports Grant and
Wilson.
The National Temperance Adcocate for
October reviews the charges against
Gen Grants personal habits, and the
charges refuting them, and announces its
entire disbelief in them. The same pa.
per expresses the opinion that temper
ance men can find nothing in the Repub.
lican party to prevent their supporting
it.
Writing to Democrat who urged his
nomination less than a year ago, Mr.
Greeley said II am not the man you
need. Your party are mostly free trade,
| and am 4 ferocious protectionist l
have no doubt that might be nominated
and elected by your help, but it would
place us both in false positions. If I,
who am adversely interested, can see
this, am sure your good sense will, on
reflection realize it," Ucttcr to p. Don
an, Oct. 1S, 1917
Referring to the election the other day
in Delaware, when the Grcelcyitcs car
ricd the State by only so majority, the
Wilmington Commercial says: at must
be remembered that this vote is cast by
the Democratic party, and no. by the
Greeley party. Hundreds who support
| ed the Democratic candidates on Tues
day will not vote for Greeley in Noyem-
| Der, and the majority of SO, which would
be wiped out at any rate, when the full
| strength OF both sides is voted, will be
| buried out of sight when the anti-Gicc.
leg clement is Withdrawn from it,"
OF the situation in New York city, the
| N. Y. Times says: "Only those who
have carefully examined the matter have
any idea of the extent of the demoraliza-
ton which prevails in the Democratic
organization. The old dcposcd leaders
in each Assembly district 'suik in their
tents not because they like Grant, but
because they want to secure such re-
suit as will show that the present mana
gers cannot successfully lead the party.
The rank and file are disorganized, and
acknowledge no party obligation to vote
for Greeley. We therefore expect that
there will not DC over 10000 votes cast
in this city at the coming election, and
that of these Gen Grant will receive not
less than $4,000"
"Tho personal views of Mr.. Greeley
are exactly these: He flvors the one.
term principle, and believes that another
/ Republican candidate for President can
be selected who will encounter less opp0.
| sition and win more support than Gcner-
al Grant, and ho therefore advocates
such selection. But should his views be
oyerruled, and General Grant nominated
he holds his election infinitely preferable
| to that Of any candidate aohom the Demo.
Gratis may nominate, for u Democratic
triumph involves q return to power Of
the great mass of those who for year.

at length forced the Southern States into

GLORIOUS REPUBLICAN
VICTORIES.
Ohio, $4,000 Majority,
Pennsylvania, $4,000 Majority,
rEBRASk.a 5000 .M.1J'Tr
INDIANA CLOSE AND DOUBTFUL.

\ The October elections are over,
and the result, substantial Repub-
lican victories in all the States vot-
ing, insuring beyond peradventurc
the success Of the Republican Ma
ticket in November.
The Republican victory in Penn
sylvania, achieved as it was against
the combined and snperhuman eff
forts of the confederates and the
Forney faction of the Republicans,
is especially grand and Significant.
The latest news indicate that tie
majority will be full 10000, and that
Hartrantt for Governor, than whom
no candidate has been followed
with more relentless, savage oppo-
sition, is but little behind the bal
ance Of the State ticket. This
would seem to Indicate that the pco-
pie Of Pennsylvania place no faith
in the charges against him. The
Republicans have the Legislature,
and elect 90 Of the 81 members of
Congress.
Ohio, where the Confc,lerates the
dav before election figured out Il
Liberal majority OF 10000, is car
ricd by the Republicans by from
5000 to $4,000 maority-a gain
over the vote Of last year. They
also gain several members OF Con-
gress.
Indiana is very close, with Il
probability of the election of Hem
bricks, Democratic candidate for
Governor, bya very small majority.
TO offset this, the Republicans ear
ry the Legislature and gain ut least
one member Of Congress. Dan
Voorhees, stays ut home. There is
not the rcmotest doubt that Indiana
will give Grant 10000 majority in
November.
All candid men viii admit that
tho elections Of Tuesday virtually
settle the Presidential contest. Mr..
Greeley, in the language of Forney,
els doomed; and the country has
decided already, in the face of all
the falsehoods and calumnies heap
ed upon President Grant and his
administration, that the path Of
safety, permanence, and prosperity
only lies in the direction of his re-
election. The intelligent masses
have carefully weighed the promi-
SEES and professions Of reform held
out by the unnatural alliance seeking
power through the election Of Gree
ley, and the verdict expressed in
these elections, and those preced-
ing them, is that those professions
and promises are frauds. Hence
forth the campaign will be unevent-
full and devoid Of excitement until
the closing scene of the 5th Of No
vamber, when, with an emphasis
not be mistaken, the sovereign peo-
pie will place the seal of confidence
and approval upon President Grant
by his reelection by larger popu-
lar majority than before.
