We NAV say, too, that there are half
dozen Democrats at least all OF Whom we
would be heartily glad to see in the presi-
dental office. But we can't have them all
at once. and there are and will be times
when each one Of them could draw stronger
sunnort than at any other time. at the
present time Governor Tilden, in our Juds-
ment. stands clear ahead Of all others. This
is caused by a combination OF circumstances,

stances might have made Judge Church or
Governor Hendricks or some other man the

Lancaster letter in New York Herald.I
The choice is now between Hendricks and
Tildcn, with a strong feeling in Tildcn's
favor. There is question, however, which
is more important even than the question OF
candidates, and that is the one in regard to
policv--whether they shall conciiate the Ohio
inhationists to save Indiana, or throw them
overheard to make New York secure.
whichever way they turn there is dilemma,
and thew do not profess to like either horn.
The leading men Of the party in PennsylVa-
mia declare that they will insist upon hard
money platform, and il they do this it will
be comparatively easy to secure hard
money candidate. Since Thurman is out OF
the race it is not impossible for Hendricks
to obtain the delegation ON sound plat
form, il it was not for the fear that his noml-
nation would be the sacrifice OF New York;
but his friends claim that Pennsylvania and
New York never have worked together, ana
never will. Tilden's friends, however, are
active and alert, and ii he grows during the
next three weeks Us he has grown IN the last
he will be able to control the delegation at
ST. Louis. There is an undercurrent in
favor OF General Hancock; but il the dele
CATION supports him it will only be because
they can agree upon no one else.

The Democracy OF Warren county, in
convention, expressed a preference Tor
Samuel j. Tilden Us President and James y.
Broadhead as Nice-Prcsident. There is a
peculiar significance in Tilden's endorse
ment by a convention Of Missouri Demo-
Gratis; for outside OF any personal predllcc-
tons in the matter, it indicates remark
able change in the sentiment OF the party
concerning the currency question.-St.

The action of the Ohio Democrats places
Thurman out of the list Of probable candi-
dates for President. Tilden's popularity is
increasing daily, and his nomination is all
most STANDARDIZATION Record.
Georgia.
We presume that the growing sentiment
in favor of Governor Tilden is due mainly
to the necessity for candidate who Will
certainly carry New York, and who is adj
mitted to be acceptable on the score OF abll-
ity and character. What the South needs,
and what the country needs, is candidate
who can win the race, provided, always,
that he is good man.-AHantd ConSttU-

\ Mississippi letter in the Cleveland
Herald SAYS: "Thc signs OF the times begin
pretty clearly to indicate that Governor Til
den will be the Democratic nominee. re
publicans may say it will be an easy matter
to beat him, but they can't really think so.
Ii they do, l apprchcnd, after the canvass
fairly opens, they will find work, work,
work. the war-cry all along the line; ana
the necessity for it will be plainly seen at
every point.'
