WASHINGTON. d. G. Fob. s, 1876

WASHINGTON. d. G. Feb. s, 1876.
1t is bold and important move that
Speaker Kerr has made, this nomination
of Governor Hendricks for the presidency,
and | do not think he would feel fattered
to have it understood as merely piece
OF party tactics. 1t is that and mol Q
than that. 1t is au attempt, made at ii
favorable time, too, to bring about ma
tioDal feeling. Financially, it is on the
one hand, protest against tho hot house
eastern plans Of resumption, and on the
other. against tho wild cat frenzy that
overrun Ohio year ago. The nomins.
tion of Governor Hayes by the veteran
Senator Sherman has in this respect the
same significance, for Governor Hayes,
while "hard money" man, is not Of that
class who receive favor from extreme
hard money men
But the two nominations, considered
together, have a vastly greater import
ance than attaches to simply 6nanoisl
affairs. They are a declaration of indie
pendence on the part of the West, or,
rather, that the control of the nation shall
go with its population. There has been
since the time Of Moses no bondage NOR,
CALLING than that Of the East over the
West, embracing as it did more than the
odious exactions which in ruder age
made tribute follow plunder. Nothing
but the vast and rapidly developing
natural resources of the new country
made it possible for this condition OF
things to exist SO long; with this develop
ment has come the time when, 10 the
opinion of Speaker Kerr and Senator
Sherman and their advisers, the legisla
tion Of the country should be shaped, and
the influences which surround 40 admin
istration be SO selected, as to put all Sec
tions upon level.
On the great questions underlying the
relations OF the states to the federal gov
ernment, and which will endure as living
questions probably for ages, Governor
Hayes is removed from both extremes.
He participated honorably in the war
but has never exhibited that bitterness
which has characterized SO many, and
which, If he were elected to the presi.
dency, night prevent his giving to the
settlement Of these fundamental issues,
when they rise in the near future, the
clear and calm consideration which the
good Of the country demands the posi-
tion Of Governor Hendricks on these
questions is part Of the history f'the
country, and needs no comment.
Evidences accumulate that, whoever
the candidates may bc, the coming cam.
paign will be one Of unprecedented ac
tivity on both sides. The republicans
will have the advantages incident to Q
