ton Of Illinois ever before hesitate to
endorse republican president?
Packed as that convention was by Gen.
Grants hirelings, the influence Of Sen.
ator Logan prevented the delegates
from endorsing Grant or his policies.
We believe Senator Logan lost an
opportunity when he refused to take
up the gauntlet President Grant threw
down We have no doubt he has been
marked by the administration for polit-
ical death. i. is evidently the intcn-
ton Of Grant to put Senators Logan
and Morton upon the same shelf with
Schurz, Trumbul, Fcnton and other re
publirans the wonderful political skill
of the president has consigned to pc.
litical oblivion and the rather timid
action Of Senator Logan, who in pub.
lie estimation was struck by the veto
blow that made him stagger and re.
treat, seems TO Us to indicate that the
leading Illinois senator believes bat
tie with the president would result in
disaster to the presidential foe. II he
does believe thi, he might as well die
with harness on his back a. surrender
at discretion. If he surrenders his
doom is sealed. But, if Logan will
fight, We are not sure Grant will come
out with the victory. lie is not now
the powerful leader he was n short time
ago, and all that is necessary to over
throw him is bold leader, who will
give him blow for blow. We have too
much confidence in Senator Logan 4,

dust beneath the presidents feet, I hat
he has done so even for short time

his prestige for independence and cour-
age but all Is no; lost We DO not dc.

morallzed him, he will be heard from
again, and we prelic; that, if ever he
