OK THE return of the great revivalists,
MeSsrs. Moody and Sanky. from Europe
the Christian people of most of the larger
cities endeavored to secure their services;
but as these gentlemen could accept but
one of the numerous invitations they
received they decided to commence their
labors in New York, which they did this
week. In speaking of their first meeting
the New York Herald says:
Mr. Moody struck the keynote of his
revival work in this country in opening
addresses at the Brooklyn Rink yester-
day, when he appealed in his earnest and
peculiar way to his hearers, "Let us go
up and take the land" II, single-handed
he was to meet and overcome an army
with banners, his undertaking would not
he more difficult. In his revival work
he must triumph over the depravity and
Indifference of men to make his mission
successful, and the history of long line
of evangelists and reformers shows sue
cess in an endeavor of this kind to be
almost impossible. Mr.. Moody is appar-
emily an exception to the list of equally
earnes: workers who have little to show
for their zeal and devotion except the
sense of their own faithtulness and though
the revival is only begun, it is already
apparent that the evangelist is to make
a very deep and perhaps permanent i'm
preston upon the people.

JOHN SPEER, one of the oldest newspa-
per men in the State, has revived the
Lawrence Tribune. We doubt the enter
prise being profitable one, but he is
sure to make an interesting paper. He
gives the following reason for starting a
third daily paper in Lawrence
We have been asked why we started
the Tribune. We must answer like the
boy that kissed the little girl at school,
because we couldn't help it. The Tribune
is an Institution OF Lawrence. Before
Lawrence was the Tribune was. We
penned the first editorial against slavery
ever written West of the Missouri river.
Then few men were here in tents, but
the prairie had no name. We didn't
come to Lawrence. Lawrence came to rs
We saw its first cabins-lnere mustered
ted. 1t was even named in a meeting of
its "sguattcrs" after we came. In those
days men were moving where the Ed
ridge house now stands, and cocks of hay
occupied the site of the splendid Nation
al Bank building. Hence, we say, We
continue to live in Lawrence. and run
the Tribune because we can't help it.

The Leavenworth Commercial! in an
article headed "The Battle Cry" makes
the following sensible remarks, which we
think are applicable to the Republicans
of this county:
The very best men have been nomina-
ted by the Republicans for the different
positions, and let the battle cry be,
Work for the success of the Republican
party, and see to it that every nominee
is elected" The vote in this county this
fall will be the record by which our
worth or wOrthles>ness i'm next years
campaign will be measured. If we de-
sire to be strong, poll the full Republic
can vote if we desire to be weak, let
personal pickering disturb our counsels
and distract our party.

The St. Louis Times (Democratic) has
also been holding an inquest on the re.
mains of the party since the Ohio elec-
ton, and thus records its verdict:
Men and brethren, come ard let us
reason together. The Democratic party
of the past-the party of hard money,
specie payments, Silas Wright, James X.
Folk, Thomas H. Benton and John c.
Breckenridge, was buried at Appomat-
tOx Court House. Can
the new Democracy rise to the right of
an undaunted leadership and 60 before
the country as the old Democracy used
to do, the champions par excellence of
the people. We think not. We are
firmly of the opinion that the Allegha-
MES have broken its back.

IT Is true that there is no question of
vital Importance to be decided at our
election next Tuesday but it is also
true that if Republicans would keep up
their organization and have it strong and
efficient tor campaigns when there are
important political questions at issue, it
is necessary for them to give their ticket
Il hearty support, especially whereas
is now the ease-the ticket is made up
IF good and honorable men. These Re-
formers who have no regard for "past
party aiiiliations"-the great majority of
them nj least-rejoice over Democratic
victories and mourn over Republican sue
cesses, and in the approaching Presiden-
tial campaign they will be found figh ting
the Republican nominee. Reform with
them means, get Office and weaken the
Republican organization. The Rcpubli-
cans are greatly in the majority in this
county. and it is for them 10 say whether
the result of the election shall be vic
tory for the party and an endorsement of
its principles. or whether further dissat-
isfaetion shall b. gotten UP in this party
over the defeat of some of ITS candidates.
Many Republicans who last year voted
with the Reformers have became con-
WINGED that this so-called Reform move
ment is humbus and have openly de-
clared in favor of the entire Republican
ticket In fact this is the Only conclu-
sion Republicans can come to if they will
give the matter careful consideration.

The appointment of MIR. Chandler as
Secretary of the Interior took everybody
by surprise, bat even his enemies admit
that there can be no charges of corrup-
ton or Official dishonesty brought against
him, and an investigation of the Con
gressional records is said to show that he
opposed all monopolies, salary grabs,
back-pay steals, etc. But one of the
best things in his favor is that he is
known to advocate the transfer of the
entire Indian business to the War De-
partment. Ii the new Secretary should
accomplish this he will have done good
thing for the country, and will receive
the appreciation of the great mass of the
people.

GENERAL NEWS.

There is a congressman to elect in
Oregon next Monday.
The Democrats don't feel dead sure
that they are going to carry Pennsyl-
vania.
Gov. Hayes and Senator Sherman are
to take the stump for the Republican
ticket in Pennsylvania.
The postal card contractors at Spring
field, whose limit Of production is $780,
600 per day, are 100000 behind their
orders.
The "tidal wave" seems to have set in
another direction this year. Already the
Republicans have carried the following
states and territories: New Hampshire,
Maine, Rhode Island, Michigan, North
Carolina, Iowa, Ohio Nebraska, Colorado
and New Mexico. This is record that
Republicans may feel proud of.-Girard
Press.
There is one thing about Secretary
Chandler which is pretty generally ad-
mitted. He doesn't pretend to be any
thing else than he is, and there will be
no silly cant about his administration of
the Interior Department. Ifhe should
allow the Indians to be robbed, it won't
be under the pretense of outstanding
them.
A jealous Hendricks organ in Indiana
calls upon the Governor to lose no time
in declaring himself hard money man.
Bless you, friend, it is only little more
than a week since the Governor de-
clared that he was passionately fond Of
soft money. No man should be called
upon to change his opinion oftener than
once a month.-New XorE Tribune Ind

The Great Democratic Party.

The Cincinnati Enquirer is furious
orator, boiling over with lava, which it
throws up and scatters over the Eastern
Democracy with most terrific eructa-
ton. 1t rains cinders and hot ashes,
and lights up the whole political sky
with its fierce pyrotechnics. Its feeling
to the Republican party is love itself
compared with its affection to the Sam
Tilden-itee. And this is the great party
that is to rule and reform the country

LEAVING THE REFORM PARTY.

Two years ago the Reform party car
ried everything in Miami county, but
now the best men who went into the
movement are leaving it and returning
to the Republican party. Mr.. johnson
Clark gives the following reasons tor de-
serting the sO-called reformers:
Ihave advocated reform and a reduc.
ton of fees and salaries. The Reform
party started out with this idea, and
while in the minority advocated retrench.
ment and reform. Two years since we
achieved a glourious victory, and we
promised the people that we would work
for reduction Of fees, and if the Legislat-
ure refused to so reduce salaries and fees
AS to make the office holders and farmers
wages correspond, We would inaugurate
such reform here and to that end We
pledged our Representatives and other
officers; and We, being an agricultural
people, thought it right that our interests
should be better represented, ETC., etc.
But how has it been? In the convention
at Ottawa, Goodin, a lawyer and Dem.
ocrat, was nominated and elected. and
the representatives of labor thrust in the
background, ignored and abused. And now
that he is elected he is simply Demo-
crat. ignoring the third party wholly;
and it is my opinion that the Democratic
element must go back to Democracy.
And, as you say, if that is the case. we
Independent Republicans are but hand
full and As party we are disintegrating
by and through the action ofthe Democ.
ratio party. see in this comfy that
there is no attempt to deny the fact that
next fall they will run straight Demo-
cratic ticket. This fall they are only
Refnrmers for Office. 1t is fact that the
Reform party of this county is sadly in
need Of reform, having gone back on all
