Thank Congress for Nothing.

There Is something lndicrous in the way
the Republican conventions treat the adj
mittea fraud and venality OF the party.
The Minnesota Republican State Conven-
ton, held on Wednesday, adopted reso-
hutton, heartily applauding the active
measures Of Congress IN ferreting out and
exposing corruption that is all.
There were more corrupt men, all Repub-
keans, in the late Congress than ever before
sat In an American Congress; and the late
Congress, as a whole was the most corrupt
and audacious legislative body that ever
met in the federal capital II was so sat
arated with corruption that it would not
punish its corrupt members, and the result
is, those corrupt members are honored
leaders in the party 10 this day-some OF
them members Of the next Congress, some
Of them appointed 10 foreign missions, and
ali Of them favorites with the administra-
ton. Why applaud Congress for ferret
ing out and exposing corruption, and then
refusing to punish it2 Do the innocent
Republicans Of Iowa and kinneso-
"a imagine that ferreting out =
corruptions is going to reform their party
Do they think that plundered, defrauded
and scandalized country will be satisfied
with such good for-nothing resolutions as
this2 The late Congress does not deserve
thanks for even exposing the Credit Mobil-
Ter corruption. The exposure was made
by the opposition press IN 1872, and Con-
I gress would not have taken the matter up
and investigated ii If the presence OF .
Threatening public opinion had not forced
| Il 10 do So Having no alternative but Il
investigate the scandal, Congress content
ed itself with mere investigation. L
found so many Republican leaders involved
in the shameful business that ii was afrait
TO push the matter to its logical result |
therefore turned the convicted criminal
loose upon the country to hold offices, max
laws, control the party, and commit NOR
frauds, and for doing this the Iowa an.
Minnesota Republicans heartily applaud
litl-St Louis Republican.

Hiekary Shirts.

We learn from the West that the Hon.
Ignatius Donnelly of Minnesota il making
a pleasing exhibition of himself by visiting
the Farmers Meetings in the picturesque
costume Of hickory shirt, blue overalIs,
and heavy shoes without stockings. 1t is
a very appropriate dress for a gentleman
OF Mr.. DOnnelly's position and we have
no doubt the Farmers, who are n pretty
sharp-witted and sensible set of men in the
main, appreciate the independence of
character which leads him 10 adopt IL
Possibly there is some oxaggeration in the
reports but if Mr.. Dounelly really is COM
hitting this absurdity, he is doing very
little more than a score or two of other
politicians and orators who~are striving
their best 10 humbug the Oranges and
turn what threatens 10 become powerful
organization 10 their individual benefit.
II is a very ludicrous exhibition, and we
dare say the Farmers have many quiet
laugh over il when nobody is looking.
They know perfectly well that the violent
speeches Of the politicians at their Grange
meetings, and the sympathixing letters
which eminent statesmen cause 70 be pub
hshed in the newspapers, have no value
and not much meaning. They understand
that their sudden friends have no practical
remedy for their troubles, and no thorough
Comprehension Of the difficulties Of the
problem. Thus far they have been wooed
in vain. They offer encouragement 20
neither side, but 20 resolutely about their
business, organizing their clubs, and get
ting ready 20 vote with some effect when,
ever the time comes for the expression Of
their sentiments When THAT time docs
come, the gentlemen who masquerade in
hickory shirts will doubtless be somewhat
astonished The coming leader Of the
Farmers party we fear has not yet been
revealed. But IL the Farmers movement
