The Third Term Vote.

1t Will puzzle the average American
citizen to determine why the Democrats il
Congress assembled should fret themselves
about the third term especially in view OF
the fact that no man OF their political house
hold is likely to be troubled with a first
term for good many years to come. 1t was
favorite maxim of the first Napoleon never
10 interrupt an enemy in false movement
and it seems TO US that on this view of the
case the Democrats ought to have en-
couI aged, rather than impeded, the Repub
licans in the third term. But Mr.. Springer
the Democratic member from the Sprin q.
field, Illinois, district, evidently thinks
differently, and has forced an expression OF
opinion from his associates of both parties
in Congress, from which we learn that a
majority of the Republican members are
quite as strongly opposed to the third term
as any Democrat can possibly be. There
were but fifteen Republican votes cast
against the resolution Of Mr.. Springer. Two
OF these are from Michigan, the home of
Secretary Chandler, and eight are gen.
tlemen whom we feel constrained to de-
nominate carpetbaggers. The list is as fol-
Lows:
Bradley, Michigan, Hoge, South Carolina,
Page, California, Smalis, S. C,
Wells, Mississippi, Denison, Vermont,
Hubbell, Michigan, MacDougall, n. Y,
Plaisted, Maine, Wallace, s C.,
Haralson, Alabama, Hyman, N. c,
Nash, Louisiana, Walls, Florida,
Whiting, illinois.
