The idea of Independent journalism.
SAYS the Sacramento Record, has given
rise in its time to an immense quantity
of fiapdoodlc, IS Swift would have
called it. but it has not, on the whole.
made a very deep score on c%ontempor-
aneous events. The notion tina. gov
ernmont can be carried on without
craftsmanship in a country ruled by
public opinion, has been awaited of by
a large number of enterprising citizens
to lift themselves into positions which
perhaps they would never have at
tained otherwise. Put WHEN we in
uuire what good has resulted
from the new idea, it is not
so easy to obtain 4 salts actory
answer. and, i'll tact. the further
we seek the less we find in this
direction. The no-party papers them
selves, moreover. are beginning to dis
cover that the new theory does not
work; that to be without 4 party is
nearly equivalent 10 being without a
following; and that to be without a fol-
lowing is TO be without influence. The
famous 'quadrilateral,' consisting of
the New York Tribune. Louisville
CDaricr-JouYpat, Springfield RcpUb-
ijcaD, and Chicago TrtjUae, has eff
fec:ed surprisingly little during the
period of its existence, and does not
promise to do much better in the tu-
,urc. The people read the philosoph-
ical, dispassionate, carry-water-on-
both-shoulders Journals. but when il
comes to voting on live issues
they naturally and inevitably are
compelled to take sides, and as indie
pendent journalism is OF no side, is
coUnscls usually &c for very little. OF
course that is hot independent Journal
ism which, While pretending to be
neutral, seeks to build up a new party.
Ii is merely raradoAical journalism,
and suspiciouslv resembles ultramCn-
tanism in religion, for it claims a sort
of political ~intallibility which is alike
arrogant, intolerant and prepo>terous.
The tendency of things. however, is
re~actionarv, and the failure OF the in
dependent ideal bids fair 10 be followed
by a return 70 old-fashioncd partisan
ship, which. with all its faults, has the
signal merits OF honesty. and never
struts in borrowed plunes.

frage; the forcing of men to vote con-
trary to their iuclirations for the sake
of gaining bread for their families; the
issuance OF false naturalization papers,
and all other unlawful means resorted
to in coercing men to vote against
their will, by men who are too mean
to live and not good enough to die.
Upon the purity of the ballot-box de-
ponds the safety of the Republic.
Gentlemen. you shall have no reason
to regret the choice you have made to-
day.
MIR. Mitchell was then called for,
and made a short speech, declaring
that he had always been a true and
con si>tent Democrat, and deuouncing
the charges made against him on the
morning of the Democratic primaries
as maliciously false. lie concluded by
saying that he sought nc position from
the party, and that he should fight his
battles in the interest of the Democracy

a THIRD TERM.

The parasites of Grant that couple
his name with a third Presidential
term, are eagerly pressing his claims
to that honor. The question has
caused irreparsble injury to the Re-
publican party, and already the con-
sequences of such a step are manifest
ing themselves. Tie Republicans OF
New York State have split and organ
lied a new party, known as the Libcr-
ertl Republicans. The example of one
affects numbers, and a moral degen-
eracy resulting from the Infamous
practices of Government officials is
gradually cncroaching upon the in.eg-
ritv of the american character. Once
the Government of the people, ours Is
now the Government of oilice-holder>.
The noHely rule of honesty is among
the things OF the past, the precepts and
examples of our forefathers have been
abandor ed for the brilliant schemes of
the political ad~venturer, and now,
