SrNlIORLlL C1TNPAWS.

Senator Conkling, Senator Morton. and sun
dry other gentlemen, who are fondiy supposed
by devoted friends 10 be candidates for the
Presidency, are merely used as catspaws to
mil third-tcrm chcstnuts out OF the fire.
They, very likely, imagine that they are can
didatrs. Sweet in their ears Is the voice of
The Bungtorn Chronicic, or The Eomulw
Trombonc, setting forth their claims. They
like TO be "mcntioncd in that connection"
But, IA a sober matter of fact, Grant will reap
while Morton sows and Conlling waters. Their
destiny is to be merely tools Of the thrd-tcrm
intrigue. If it is beaten, they are beaten.
The people of this country are unusually clear
about what they want this year. They do not
want Grantism in the civil service, though
adorned with the manners of "a Conklng. They
do not want any more OF the bloody shirt
agitation about the South, though enforced
with all the energy Of Morton. They mean TO
have change at Washington; a thorough and
radical change; reform in the public service,
honest efforts for honest money and honest
taxation. Nobody il at liberty to doubt, since
the elections of 1874 and 1875, that the voters
are entirely in earnest in these demands, and,
while they would much rather have
them satisfied by the Republican party.
and would plainly trust the Republicans
sooner than the Democratic party to
carry these reforms into effect they mean to
have them, even if they have to defeat the
Republican party in order to prepare the way
for the success of one heartily in earnest on
these questions. Let nobody forget that
majority of the people in twenty States have
shown their determination to defeat the Re-
publican party if it does not conform to their
wishes. Voters are not to be frightened by
the fear that Democrats may come into
power. There may DO third candidate if
