WHAT THE PAPERS SAY.

N. Y. World: The nomination
of Hayes turns out to be an Admin
,istration victory. It is Grantism
extended. q
Deuenpo,t Democrat (Densl III
the record Of Che candidates is to be
the platform this year, then the
Republican party has no platform,
as its candidates have no record.
Chicago Courier (Dem1: How
about the $1,000 Hayes is said to
have received while Governor of
Ohio for the pardon of the murderer,
McCoys
Pittsbury Post (lnd):: The Gin,
cinnati platform was made for
Blaine. With Hayes on it, We have
the funny spectacle of Tom Thumb
riding on an elephant.
Ne,o York Herald fIud): Xii
patrick is going to stump the coun-
try for Hayes and Wheeler. That
will give him a chance to explain
about Butterfeld's S20, 900.
Fraaklin Bird (Mass): From
Morton, Conkling, Blain or Bristow
to Hayes is such fall that l know
not what to say. 1t is the step Fl ON
the sublime to the ridiculous.
Democratic Watchnsan: til said
that Mr.. Hayes was much surprised
at his nomination. No. doubt of it.
He could not help but wonder how
the lightning could miss the tall
pines and come down and strike a
small sapling like him. :.
Greensboro Ky.) Monitor: The
spirit of prophecy is upon MS. Mark
this: Tilden will be nominated at
st. Louis; he will beat Hayes in
New York worse than he beat
Dix; and he'll be the next president
of these United States.
Austin { Ter Statesman Ind): The
coming contest is one involving dol.
lars and cents, and Wheeler is i'm
potent and Hayes devoid Of that
extraordinary intellectual and moral
vigor that distinguishes the iron
handed chief magistrate and re-
former of New York.
Cincinnati Enquirer General
McClernand was driven out OF the
army by Grant for the mere Offense
of being Democrat and for making
some misrepresentation in his Re.
gard to engagements, but the people
have always admired him for his
gallantry and his patriotic devotion
to the cause of liberty and humanity.
Boston Post {Dena) When Mr..
Blaine was aspeaker of the House,
assisting his friends to ss1yersn in
this stock, Mr.. Wheeler was chair
man Of the Pacific railroad commit
tee; and the subsidy schemes and
the other privileges of the Texas
Pacific and the Northern Pacific
were put through by his aid.
New York Herald (I,sd): The
Freeman's Journal thinks that Gov.
ernor Hayes, standing on the repnb-
lican platform, win be like the man
dressed in store clothes-they don't
fit. The platform was made for
Blaine, and the journal thinks Gov
ernor Hayes first response looks as
if he might decline to wear the suit
of clothes made for another.
Springfield RepMblican Ind: The
twelfth and last of the regular ap
preparation bills 1.-THE Sundry Civil
is only about half the usual bnlk,
retrenches to the tune of $4,000,
and is to be railroaded through the
House at. the very highest attaina.
BILE rate of speed. The Democrats
can certainly afford to 90 to the
country upon this retrenchnlent is
sue it the Republicans can.
NeO Orleans Democrat: We find
the House-the first Democratic
House We have had since 1861
making brave struggle to reduce
the cost of government and save
the people thirty nine millions of
dollars; and we find the Senate and
President making fierce fight to
defeat this movement of the House
and keep up the old system of prof.
legacy and extravaganza.
Patterson IN. y Guardian (Deaa):
The Democratic House is powerless
to effect the retrenchment and re.
form SO sadly needed against the
determined opposition Of the Repub.
