POLITICAL NOTES.

President p. A. Chadbourne of Williams
College now mentioned as desirable man for the
Republicans to nominate to succeed Mr.. Dawes In the
XIth Massachusetts District.
1t is reported in the lst Massachusetts, Dis
trict that Congressman Bufinton will decline
nation and that his constituents looking about for
successor. They won't have to tire themselves much
TO fiud desirable man than the present incum-
beut.
The Ohio Democrats will open their CAM
paign at Columbus Sept. 10. Gov. Allen Gen.
Ewing George IL. Pendleton, and Senator Thurman
announced speakers. IL will be interesting to
Pendeton and Thurman "harmonzing" on the financial
plank OF the Democratic platform.
The only election this week will be one for
Delegate Congress in Colorado which will take place
Tuesday. There are three candidates-Henry II.
Bromwell, Republican; Thomas NJ. Patterson Demo-
cratic and Albert G. Boone. Independent Democratic
The Denrsr Nes says If three candidates voted for
Bromwell will be slccessfu but that the Opposition
viii concentrate on Boone they easily elect him.
Judge f. II. Waite of Mankato has been
nominated by the Independent or AntMonoDoly party
of the Is Minnesota District to against Congress-
man Mark II. Dunne, salary grabber. Judge Waite Is
highly spoken of by friends and foes and as this is
good year for bolting he ought to be elected, and
chance thus afforded for Mr. Dunnel to continue tho
hauling OF that sand He Is good deal better lifted for
that than for Congress.
A rather OminOus thing happened to two
Presidential asprants in Cincinnati the other day The
carriage which Cows Allen and Hendricks rode In tha
Exposition parade was driven by the leading under
aker OF the city, OF course would so cruel as

Governors have reduced themselves by their lively
gymnastics in attempting TO keep both sides OF tho
currency question at the same tme but nevertheless
d0n't envy the heart OF the man who arranged To
have the undertaken drive that particular carriage.
The comments of the ST. Louis journals on
the ticket put forth by the Peoples Convention as
usual in such various and conflicting. The DGmo

On the WHOLE ths work OF the Convention has been
such as to inspire any great degree OF confidence
or enthusiasm. Now that It Is known the Republicans
will put raight cket-for the evidences very
plain In that direcon-it can safely DO said that tho

yesterday Is doomed retrievabe defeat IL stands

THE NEED OF HONEST CRITICISM


We wish it were possible to convince the
gentlemen who manage political parties and
conduct campaigns, and In various ways
shoulder the responsibilities OF popular gov
ernment that all criticism of their manage
ment does not necessarily originate in parti-
sanship OF malice, envy or jealousy. Some
things are true and reasonable and some false
and absurd in politics as In everything else,
and it is for the best interests OF the c0mmu-
nity that they be separated and distinguished
from each other, to the end that truth and
iustice stand. But if men range themselves
in parties supporting certain political dogmas
because party has pronounced them, or GER
tain men for Office because they are of the
party, and will listen to no reasonable
discussion of the truth of one OF the fit
ness of the other, why then there's an end OF
everything but petty personal politics. There
is nothing more absurd than the politics OF
to-day: nothing more vague and misty than
tbe lines dividing parties. Not one Repub
lican in ten who votes regularly with his
party. or one Democrat in thousand who
votes as regularly with his, can tell why he
does so without becoming involved in a snarl
of contradictions from which it is impossible TO
extricate himself. Aud yet the managers of
both parties pretend to believe, whenever
their acts or their candidates are fairly criti-
cised that there must be some partisan mo-
tive for the "attack." AS if in all this chaos
of issues there were but two straight lines, on
one or the other of which every man must of
necessity stand.
Here are the two great parties so ire
trievably mixed up with regard to the plainest
questions, so confused in everything except
their names, that man who thinks he is a
Republican in one State finds he Is a Demo-
crat in another and vice UerSa. So far as
principles are concerned there is only mex
tricable confusion. And yet here is constant
battle between them for-they know not
what, unless it be for the offices and spoils.
In this state Of things. so patent as to need

THE REDEMPTION FARCE.

In his admirable speech, delivered in the
House of Representatives on the 9th of
March, the Hon. Alexander Mitchell of Wis
consin gave his opinion of the business of
redeeming the inconvertible paper of the
banks with the incOnvertible paper of the
Government in the following Words:
The mode Of redemption proposed in Section is such
as feel sure cannot be sanctioned by Congress 1t Is
neither less than to make the Government the
redeeming agent the banks-a position manesty
proper it occupy 1t was not instituted for any
such purpose and the idea of involving 1t in daily busi
ness transactions with nearly 1000 banks Is curious
proof OF the tendency OF legislation in these days.
really wonder what the Government will be asked to
undertake next.
But In truth there has not been and cannot be- any
effective redemption OF bank notes in the present
don OF the currency there is neither object
nor motive to prompt IL. What does this socalled
dempon of bank notes mean and what does 1t amount
tot the swapping Of one kind OF irredeemabe
paper for another kind q no higher value; for the
United States note, representative Of value. in
feror to the bank note and is superior In respect
only by force Of arbitrary law and that nts to
nothing; for the holder Of bank note, after he has
taken the trouble TO exchange 1t for United States
note is no nearer coin value than he before 1t
msnomer to call this redemption, and the operation
farce the performance Of which the business community
and the public will now, regard with utter indifference
Such was the opinion, boldly and clearly
spoken, of man whose abilities and expert
ence entitled his words to authority. What
he foretold has literally come to pass. There
is decidedly no effective or real redemption of
bank notes. Seventeen millions of legal
tender notes belonging to the banks, and the
time and attention of the Treasurer of the
United States, which ought not to be wasted
in doing what is properly no concern of the
Government, are employed in carrying out the
barren juggle of sending back once month
to the issuing banks some ten million dollars
of their notes. Here is Dame Partington N
again at work, sweeping out the Atlantic
Ocean with her broom. Seven hundred and
thirty million dollars of incOnvertible paper,
of which ten millions month are expressed
TO Washington and from Washington ex
pressed back to two thousand banks, to be
put in circulation again Immediately. No
bank has suspended, for wonder, and the
discount on broken promises remains as great
as ever. Seventeen million dollars constantly
employed, and the Treasurer of the United
States commissioned to oversee the dirty busi-
ness, for it is no exaggeration to call it so.
We are compelled to record many
things of little consequence to the
forty million inhabitants Of the thirty
seven States of this Vnioo, and we an

THE CAMPAIGN IN THE SOUTH.

Gen. Grant has done well to make his
prompt declaration of purpose to employ
every means within his reach to check the
disorders in the Southern States, but he has
chosen rash and unfit minister to carry out
his intentions. In his letter to the Secretary
of War he directed that the troops should be
ordered so as "to be available in case of
necessity but they were only to be used of
course in accordance with law. Sending them
to the theaters of recent disturbance was
timely warning and wise measure of pre-
caution. 1t was not in any way an interfer-
ence with the sovereignty of the States. At
torney-General Williams, however, goes much
further than the President. He takes it upon
himself to assure the Federal marshals
and attorneys throughout the South that
the riots and murders of which we
have heard so much were perpetrated
with the view of oveTawlng and
"intimidatng peaceable and law-abiding cit-
"zens and depriving them of the rights guaran-
"teed to them by the constitution and laws of
"the United States" He treats them as con-
spiracies of the white men to drive the negro
away from the polls and rob him of the equal
protection of the laws. He quotes three
Systematically violated; and he instructs his
subordinates " to proceed with all possible
"energy and dispatch to detect expose, arrest,
"and punish the perpetrators of these crimes.n
Now it is very clear that two of the statutes
which the Attorney General cites have no
application to the present situation of affairs.
The first is the Civil Rights Bill of 1865. That
confers upon the freedmen citizenship and
equality before the courts, with the full and
"edual benefit of all laws and proceedings for
"the security of person and property, the same
"as is enjoyed by white citizens y it has
no reference whatever to crimes of violence.
The second is the Enforcement Act of 1870,
which relates exclusively to fraud, violence,
and intimidation in voting or registering, and
to interference with Federal officers in the
discharge of their duty; this also is evidently
inapplicable to riot, or even to a conspiracy
of white men to maltreat the negroes. The
Ku-Klux Act of 1871, however, does provide
that where insurrection, domestic violence,
unlawful combinations or conspiracies shall
deprive any portion or class of the people of
any of their rights, privileges, or immunities,
ald the State authorities shall fail to afford
protection, it shall be the duty of the Presi-
dent to take such measures as he may deem
necessary for the suppression of the aforesaid
lawless acts
That is all the authority necessary for deal
ing with the present troubles at the South.
But it will be seen that the State authorities
are expected first to do their duty, and it is
only In case of their failure that the Federal
Government is authorized to interfere. Thus far
there is every reason ito believe that the
