New York WORLD: The watchword
of l776--Revolution. The Watchword
of l876-Reform.
EVANSVILLE COURIER: The people of
Maine seem to be just as proud of their
new Senator, Blaine, as if he had never
taken dollar of that Union Pacific
stock. Although he was defeated at Gin
cinnati, Blaine's acceptance of the APP
pointment to the Senate shows that he
still has an eye to the Maine chance.
New York SUN; More than a year
ago Boss Shepherd contemptuously de-
scribed Postmaster General Jewell as
"that little bob-tailed clam Yankee"
Grant has all the time sympathized with
Shepherd, but It has taken him a good
while to so fix things, that he could com.
pei the "little bob-tailed claim" to pack
up and start for Connecticut.
WAUsEoN ExPosIToR: Democrats to
the front! Ohio can be carried for Til
den and Hendricks. The foreign-born
vote will be with us this year, for this
class of our citizens are earnestly for re-
form. We are sure of the State, if Dem
ocrats do their duty. Nothing is made
and everything is lost by letting the coun-
try remain in the hands of the GRANTEES.
Ours is the only platform offering any re,

Nearly all the influential German pa
pers of the West advocate the election
of Tilden.
"Most Northwestern States can be
counted certain for the Democrats" says
Lane, of Oregon.
AS natural result of the death of
Treasury reform" under Grant, Mullett
comes to life again, and is likely to re-
gain mis- old place.
President Grant seems to be doing his
best to make "Grantism" odious, If he
has any defenders left, they are silent.
"Boss" Shepherd had long to wait,
but now rejoices with the scalp of "that
little bob-tail clam Yankee" Jewell,
dangling from his belt.
Gen. John F. Farnsworth, of Illinois,
has taken the stump for Tilden and
Hendricks. He was one of the earliest
abolitionists in Illinois, and was a zeal
GUS supporter of Mr.. Greeley in 1872.
Jewell has been turned out to
strengthen the party" So it strength
ems the party, in reform canvass, to
turn out an honest and faithful official
one who has attended to his business
and endeavored to break up bid
ding?
Jewell was not as smart as Brstow.
The latter turned himself out, and thus
escaped being kicked out. The former,
with strange infatuation, thought that he
was secure in his place, and his eyes were
only open when he felt the application
of the Presidents boot.
1t would be policy for the remnants of
Bristow's friends in Washington official
life They all might as well come down
without further waste Of powder, for not
a vestige of this reform element shall re-
main. The edict has gone forth and
must be obeyed. "Let no Bristow man
escape"
Robert Lincoln, only surviving son of
the late President Lincoln it is reported,
will stump Illinois for the Democratic
National ticket.
New York World: If the Ohio De-
mocracy carry on the canvass in the
same spirit with which they have COM
menced it Tilden and Hendricks will
carry the State. Democratic fires are
springing up on every hilltop.
Pittsburgh Post: The New York
Tribune is sick at heart over Grants
late tantrums, and is trying to make it
appear that Hayes has nothing to do with
him. Mr.. Hayes won't authorize any
such statement, however.
The Boston Post gets this in: "Al
gamblers are Democrats, says the Nation
al Republican. Let's see When did
our late Minister to England and the
man the President wanted to make
United States Treasurer join the Demo-
cratic partyP"
