LIBERALS AND DEMOCRATS.

LfoG AdAC hN ~ HE ~ W A - ~
The Springfield Republican. whether
chastened by its libel suit Or giving utter
ance to its inherent sound common sense,
has spoken well and sensibly in reply to a
home thrust by the Louisville Courier
Journal in regard to what the 'indepen-
dent" Republicans, and the Quaker" vot-
ers were likely to do in the next Presiden-
tial election. Without attempting to re-
produce the reasoning or to initiate the
rhetoric of the Republican. i. is enough to
say that 1t declares that it is not sure what
it aud the class for which it speaks will do.
1t depends upon what is enacted by the
Republican and Democratic parties. tits
opposed to third term for General Grant.
So is General Grant. il we may accept his
acts instead of the words which we have
been 30 anxious for him to utter. Just now
he has appointed new Attorney General.
He has bestowed this Cabinet Office upon
man who is known by his public speeches
- one who is of the opinion that a third
term of the Presidency is opposed to the
genius of our institutions" and further
that NO man can and no man ought to be
elected Chief Magistrate for third time.
So far it might we'll be said that the Re-
publican is in accord with the President,
and the Republican party.
But the Republican is in favor of honest
government, and the prosperity of the
South. So is the Republican party. The
Republican is too able not to know that
war and an inflated currency were the in
evitable precursors Of good many things
which were TO be remedied as soon as pos
sible. The question is, ID the Republican
party striving for remedy-a full and
genuine remedy-of the evils which every
where and in all times have followed pro-
lonRed civil war? If it has been more ar
dent. can it say that it has been more
practicable than the party which it has
somewhat disengaged itself from ? 1t now
stands In attitude of earned observation"
To this there is no objection. 1t is in har-
mcny, If we correctly understand it, with
Mr.. Car! Schurz. who thinks that the pro-
LESSONS of the Democratic party are quite
another thing from its practice; and that,
judging by what it has done since 1872, it
Is not TO be trusted by any voter who loves
purity. economy, patriotism in politics.
The Republican is careful not to commit
itself to the Democracy in 1876.
What it says in effect this the Repub.
licans might might make Presidential
nomination which. a certain kind of Dem
ocratic nomination being made, 1t would
refuse to accept, and support the Demo
crat; but that the Democrats making their
usual nomination, and the Republicans
making q nomination. of proper man,
other than President Grant, 1t would sup
port the Republicans. We are not giving
the words of the Republican, but. as i'm

The raid upon the whiskey ring was a
bold and very neatly executed job. The
government officers are employed in it
and deserve great credit for the fidelity

Approximations of European war ap-
pear to be dying out. The meeting OF the
Gar of Russia and Emperor William OF
Germany tends to strengthen the idea that
peace will be maintained. The alliance
of Germany and Russia could not repress
the first Napoleon, but at present it may
serve to keep the peace.

1t is announced that the Boston Post has
been purchased by Hon. Ezra d. Winslow

proprietor succeeds in making the Post as

the management of the late propretors. he

banker for Democracy. 1t would rath-
er stay in the Republican camp, but it is
independent and conscientious, and means
to be good. We accept its assurance in
good faith. 1t may happen that we shall
differ widely in the future, but we under
stand it now to believe that the Republi-
can party, at its best, is better for the
country, as managing its affairs, than the
Democratic party as it has been, and
promises to be. If we have not always
been able to agree with the Republican,
it has not been because we objected to
any fair criticism of the Republican party,
nor because we have not hoped to see it
learn wisdom by experience. 1t has done
50 much for liberty that we thought and
now think it capable OF doing much in iu-
ture for the welfare Of the nation, and in
fnitely more than the Democratic party
could or would.

the transactions. wa. established beyond doubt
The fact of large illicit production being fully
proven, Mr.. Colony very naturally reasoned that II
the shipments out of the city could be accurately
ascertained these could then be compared with the
sworn returns to the commissioners OF internal
revenue and since comparatively only small guam
titles were sold to dealers in the city the difference
would show the amount OF CROOKED whiskey.
Under the pretence that he was gathering Stats
tics for Mr.. Fishback of the Democrat for news
paper use he employed force of copyists and sent
them with notes to all the general freight agen-
cles and officers Of transportation lines IN the CITY,
with a request that his copyists might be allowed
TO transcrbe the dray tickets or shipping tickets
of merchants for the year 1879, and also obtain
from their records the character and amounts Of
all shipments into St. Louis for the same time
No objection was made in any quarter to the re-
quest, the supposition beng that Mr. Colony was
collecting materials for either book upon the
commerce of ST. Louis, upon which he had been at
work for some time, or that as commercial editor
of the Democrat he doing newspaper work.
1t also given out that he was engaged in test
ing the accuracy OF the records OF the exchange
To throw his own force and others wholly off
the track, he first directed the records Of
shipments into st. Louis for the year 1874 to be
taken for several leading classes Of merchandise,
including, of course, whiskey and high wines, his
copysts being instructed to miss nothing in the
list of articles furnished them. This formidable
labor being accomplished, he then began the
real work in hand. and his copyists transcribed
every dray or shipping ticket of merchandise sent
out of st. Louis during 1875, and thus, without ap;
pearing to pay any attention to whiskey, he had
among the papers, when the work was done, a
perfect record Of every package of spirits shipped,
including the name Of the firm shipping, its date
of shipment, point of destination, number of the
package, kind of spirits, and name of the consgnee
the orig inals all atested by the shipping clerks Of
the various firms. These originals will now be
ava liable as evidence in the courts. The char
acter of the work was not discovered in any quar-
ter, and rot even suspected until it was all CON-
peted.

A sbum,pg Game.

Bret Harte did not have the fore
cast to discern the shuffling of the
democratic leaders of Ohio in the
year 1876, or he never would have
written, that, sfor ways that are
dark. and tricks that are vain, the
heather Chinee stood unexcelled.
The Ohio leaders can give the
heathen four points in the game, and
then beat them. Take Sam. Cary
and temperance as an illustration.
City and country districts do not
view this question in precisely the
same way, but the votes of both are
wanted for Sam. Cary, and hence
dark ways and vain tricks are resort
ed too. Here they are. We copy
first from the Bulletin, which has a
few temperance readers:
"Gen. Cary is still the warm friend of
temperance-now AS in the days of the
past, its strong advocate"
This is for country reading, but it
won't do for Cincinnati, hence for
that whisky locality We have the fol-
lowing appeal for votes for Gen.
Cary, copied from the Voik5rennd'
the German democratic organ, to-wit: I:
"The Hon. Samuel F. Cary, eandi-
date for Lieutenant Governor on the
Democratic ticket, has called on us, and
declared, without any circumlocntion,
that he is opposed to all compulsory
temperance laws, and that he not only
can esstand on the anti-temperance
plank of the democratic party of Ohio,
but also lie down on it and roll around
on it," He will use the first fitting OPP
portunity to publicly express himself
clearly and frankly on this point"
Don't you think the heather Chi
nee had better withdraw from the
gamer
