General Belknap is prominent candidate for
United States Senator in Iowa.
Gen. Banks advocacy of CASTOR is not exactly
what some of his republican supporters last year
looked forward to.
The Cincinnati Enquirer (dem.) doubts "f there
are half dozen men Of consequence west Of the
Alleghanies and south Of the Ohio who consent to
Samuel j. Tilden as the democratic candidate for
President"
The Worcester Spy says "Usc the time, this
week, to the best purpose, and then bring ont all
republican votes next Tuesday, and the majority
for Mr.. Rice and our State ticket will constrain
the democrats to pause ard take a new obscrva-
ton of the stars"
There are signs Of anmosity between the friends
of Gov Hendricks and Congressman Kerr in Ind
ana. The former thinks his prospects for the
Presidency would be injured by Mr.. Kerr's elec-
ton to the Speakership, and is said to be making
strong efforts to prevent the Indiana delegation
from giving the latter united support.
The new State constitution of Nebraska con-
tains provision that the United States Senators
for that State shall hereafter be elected by direct
vote Of the people 1t will be an interesting ques-
ton now to be sc tiled whether this is not in
fict with the constitution of the United States.
The Utica Herald says Of Frederick W. Seward
that he was his fathers constant and trusted ad-
viser lie shaped the details Of the most impor-
tant State papers Of the epoch. He managed del
icate diplomatic negotiations at times when the
salvation of the Union hung upon the reluctant
neutrality Of foreign Powers.

While in Haverhill, Mass, last week,
we Were informed on reliable authority,
that the present year has been one of the
best in the shoe business ever experienced
in that city. The appearance of the city
itself bears evidence of prosperity. Ask
ing some of the Maine boys who are at
the head of prosperous establishments and
quite wealthy, why our new shoe manu-
factory establishments in Maine could not
be made as profitable as those in Haver
hill. the reply was that experience is neces-
sary to success in the business-that Maine
manufacturers have TO pay commission
of five per cent. for the sale Of their goods
in. Boston, which Haverhil manufactures
are exempt from because the dealers come
and buy at the factories there-and because
the price of labor is less in Massachusetts
than in Maine. We were somewhat sur
prised TO hear that wages are lower there
than here, but were assured that such is
the truth, not only in the shoe manufacture
ing business, but in nearly all kinds of la
Dor. The prosperity of the shoe business
in our neighboring city of Auburn shows
that it can be carried on profitably in
Maine, and we have no doubt that our
new establishments will through courage,
patience and better knowledge Of what
is needed to make them successful, be-
come paying concerns

SECRETARY CHANDLER.

The Chicago Tribune does not belong to that
class Of party papers which regard it as their duty
to defend every appointment Of the President OIL
sanction all his acts. 1t has always criticized the
acts of its own party with the utmost freedom, and
when occasion required, with severity. This fact
renders its words ofcommc ndation worthy OF con
sderation Mr. Chandler, who has been sharply
and often unjustly criticized, is undoubtedly as
well known by the Tribune as by any journal in
the country, and that paper says;
The appointment Of Zacharial Chandler, ex-
Senator from Michigan, as Secretary OF the lne-
rior, may occasion some surprise among those who
have believed him to be unpopular with his party.
This unpopulsrity, however. was mainly IN Mich
igan and of recent growth. 1t came from what
was conceived 10 be an arbitrary and personal uso
of his patronage, rather with view to his ad-
vancement than that Of his party. 1t was this
feeling against Mr.. Chandler that led to the dlsaf
fecion in the party which defeated him and elect
ed Judge Christiancy last year. But during the
three terms he served in the United States Senate
there was no man in that body personally more
popular, uniformly more devoted to the govern
ment, or Of an integrity more universally recog-
nized. 1t is the latter quality which renders MI
Chandler peculiarly fitted for the management of
the Interior Department, in which there have been
of late years more abuses than in any other de-
partment of the General Cover nment. Mr.. Chand-
Ter has been honest all his life long and there is no
temptation for him to be otherwise at this late day,
with a large personal fortune, nor to counte-
nance dishonesty in others. He is also in full
sympathy with the republican party on the cnrren.
cy question-being uncompromisingly in favor of
sound money. There is only one point in which
he may differ with the cabinet as now organized,
and that is with reference to the treatment Of
Southern politics. In his position, however, this
question will not cut much figure, and Mr.. Chand-
Ter will on the whole, be O nscful and harmonious
