MARX THIS, REPUBLICAN FARM
ERS!

mtis, Gays The Springfield State Jour-
nal, somewhat unfortunate under the cir
'cuunstances, that Illinois Ia already rep
resented on the bench Of the supreme
'cour, Of the United States. Otherwise,
Presiden; Grant would honor himself by
appointing Chief Justice Lawrence, lwho
has Just been defeated for reelection to
the position msde vacant By the death Of
Chief Justice Chase.
This sdvice to the president is givon by
the central organ OF the Republican party
Of Illinois. 1t would have the president
rebuke the people of the Fifth district be-
cause they had the impudsnce TO defeat
Judge Lawrence Of the polls. We wish
President Grant would take tho advice
BY doing so be would ruin the Republican
party ia this state. At the Eext election the
anti-monopolsN would wipe out the ma
jority Of that party and retire into pri-
vste life every politician who would dare
TO offer any apology for the president
The Journal, under the influence Of the
short.sigh ted leaders Of the Republican
party, who infes, the state capitol and
swarm In Chicago, IL committing Nh eyre
gious political blunder, which will make
eli who desire the downfall Of the
party to which it clings laugh, and those
who wish to gather in the crumbs that fall

too sagacious to sskcthe 'Journsfs' bad adj
