ASTRIDE THE THIRD TERM
FENCE.

Some of the leading Republican
journals in the East have been out
spoken in their opposition to Grants
nomination for third term. This has
caused GOODNESS to spring up between
them and the Executive, whose kitchen
organ, the Washington Republican, in
formed them thatGovernment patronage
would be withdrawn from all journals
net in accord with the views of the
President. The famous third-term let
ter dispelled all doubts as to what
those views are upon that important
question, and pointed out the road that
leads to patronage and influence at the
White House. Since the publication
OF the letter pap-fed journals have
fallen into line, adopted Grants ideas,
and re-echoing his words, proclaim that
there is nothing in the Constitution to
prohibit his serving a third term, or
any number of terms. They say, too.
that Congress deprived him of the
Office of General of the Army, posi-
ton created expressly for him, and that
the people should be magnanimous,
and make him President for life.
Other Republicans, with more indie
pendence than the former. have pitched
Grant oN1 ka %hs.I
regardless of consequences; while a
third class, which do not derive much
sustenance from Government advertis-
ing yet holding Federal Office by APP
pointment have finger in the Treasury,
straddle the third-term proposition, and
announce that though Grant does not
want third term, he is the man for the
place and could easily be elected. The
leading journal of Nevada is of this
class, and by adroitly handling the sub
ject, does not commit itself for or
against it, This is a safe way of deal
ing with problem on which the Presi-
dent is very touchy, and the solution
Of which bids fair to part the Repub-
lican party as nice young men do their
hair-right in the middle-with the in
fence of the Administration, the whole
Federal brigade, on one side. and the
honest members of the party on the
other.

New YORK, June Z.
An interview with Attorney General
Pierrepont is published to-day, in
which he says. Judging from the Presi-
dents recent letter, he does not desire
to be President again. His pierre
points, opinion is that Grants name
will not be mentioned in the next Re-
publican Convention. 1t is possible
the candidate will be person not
known. 1t is evident Grant did not
wish to predict anything, but only de-
sired to overcome present false impress
sions.

letter is plain submission of the ques-
ton to the people whether President
shall be reelected for a third term.
Resolutions will probably be adopted
against a third term by the Republican
Convention in the North, but Grant
will have every vote of the Southern
States. Senator Clayton believes the
Republican party will not renominate
Grant under any circumstances. He
speaks hopefully of the prospects of the
Republicans in the West.
Senator Morton will remain here
three Or four days. He is in excellent
health, and he says he has not been
better for several years. He has been
invited to speak during the political
canvass in Ohio, and be intends to ac-
