POLITICAL NOIES.

Won't somebody please say kind word OF
the defnnct COnrrrss3 This unDrDkcn stream ~ de-
Dunciauon and disgust is very monolonous reading.
The Michigan Republicans have united with
the Democrats In rcnoDinating Judge Is. f. Graves FOR
reelection the Supreme Court. and have nominated
exAttOrney General Isaac MarstOn tor the seat vacated
BY Senator Cbristancy.
The people of North Carolina arc urging
their Legislature to provide for constitutional Con
veniou without delay. ExGov. Vance Is prominent IN
favoring the step. The kitchen organ at WashDgt0nh
sure such action rebellion, and attributes 1t all to
the fqure OF Congress to develop sufficient stnoes oil
knee to pass Force BILL II does Mt seem to occur to
the organ that t OF the business OF Congress
tell The people Of state what they shall 40 win ther
Constitution.
Is Mt it just possible that President Grant
vetoed the Bounty bill with additional relish when 10
saw the Vice Presidents hasty signature upon III Ii
be true reported that he has been resve under Mr.
Wilson's laudable desire to indulge in lectures on the
party policy Gcu. Grant must have enjoyed keenly 30
good opportunity OF paying back in similar COIN 1t
is pretty evident from the tone OF the press that tho
Vice President has lost as mucn as the PrcsdehL Las
gained by the transactl0p'
Sneaker Blaine receives this left handed NOM
nation for the Presidency from The Ut'cG Herald:
"Mr. Blaine will st on the floor In the XLIVth Con.
gress But we do not believe that his Influence in tho
Republican party will be less powerful Ia the future
than II has been during the past six years We do not
believe
political obscurity We sure that II the people sha
see h 10 him IN a degree even greater thln no
has been nOnored by his associates ~ the DODul Dianch
Of Government, they VIII make no mlstdkc'
There is a vast amount Of truth in this pithy
summary which The ST. Louis Republican makes OF Gen.
Grants six years OF Presidential service: He has es-
tablished pcecedents wnich Will yex us as long as tho
nation lives aud he has example which embraces
all those blunders and which the ruler OF free
country should avoid. He has wrought more damage
to the republican system in these six than his sue
cessors can repair in the h and By his principles
and actions has done TO demorazs public senti.

The absurd and malicious statement Of parti-
