GOVERNOR. NOT REPRE.gvTS.
TIVE.

| The MurphysbOro LideDcadem asks if
1t is not waste OF time for Judge Aliens
friends to force him to run for congress.
1t may be, if the independent speaks with
authority when it informs the public that
| the judge will not consent to be candi-
| date for congress, but will not refuse to
accept the Democratic nomination for
governor. But il the judge should con
clnde TO not take the nomination for gov
ernor we do not understand how he could
refuse to be candidate Tor congress if
he were nominated, We know he would
do nothing to obtain the nomination !:
but, In view Of the fact that he was nom
mated OH one ballot by the convention
that put Mr.. llartzell into tho field, aud
lost the nomination in the confusion that
prevailed at the time, it might be said,
with some force, that he would be
justified in even seeking the nomination
and taking it from Mr.. IIartzell
if he could obtain it. Mr.. Hartzell's
friends say he is entitled to rcnomina-
ton. Why: Because, the reply is, lie
was nominated and elected once, and has
a right, in accordance with the custom of
the party, to n second term. We think
he has a right to q second term if he is
worthy OF tiff he has superior claims TO
any one else; but we take no stock in the
doctrine that, no matter what may be
his record or how incilciently he may
perform his duties, custom entities
Il representative to a second term. We
see no reason to believe Mr.. IIartzell
will not merit another term, aud We
are in favor of his denomination. but we
do not believe the efforts Of Judge Aliens
friends to nominate him instead OF Mr..
llartzell ought to be treated as insolent.
Howeycr,the Office Of governor is prclcra-
bic to that of representative, and we ac-
cept the Information furnished to Us by
the independent that Judge Allen Is also
OF this opinion.

THE REpuBITCA. II. e. AND W.


There Is a grand row now in progress
among tile Republicans of this state over
the claims of several distinguished gen
tlemcn TO tie gubcrnatorial nomination
of the Republican party.
First, marching along with prayer and
praise, is the very diguiiied grcy-bearded
present incumbent of the governors Office.
the lucky Hon. John l.. Boveridgc. He
is followed by motley troop, composed
of praying men and rasca,s. the PRAYING
men eulogizing him because of his dstiu-
guishcd goodness, and the rascal> sup
porting him because OF the distinguished
ability he has exhibited in permitting
them to indulge in quite robberics
of the dear people. They know their
man. Opposing the prayeriul Beverage,
throwing mud at him and missiles of all
kinds. are the Medilian Republicans. who
are cross between whisky thieves aud
Recommendations who talk honesty
aud practice all the sharpness OF con.um'
ate politicians. These fellows hate
the dear, grooming old granny we now
| call governor, AMI are resolved to crush
him whatever may be the consequences.
Next, walking with smile that is
child.like and bland, is the cstimablc
name-remembering Misunderstanding. soft
soaping Hon. Shelby NJ. Cullom. lie
is followed by good many fellows. many
of them citizen, OF the best rcputc. At
him the friends of Beveridgc are throw
not little dirt. The Washburnc pco-
| ple-thc Medillians, those liily-whitc-
handed political sharpcrs do not de.
nounce Cullom. They simply crush him
by their contempt. Cullom IS better than
Beyeridge-has go; more sense. and
would be a much ADLER governor. lie j.
a Presbyterian--that is to say, lac wor-
ships with that church. In other words,
he buys Presbyterian pew and mods in
| it on Sunday.
Next, advancing with all the pomp OF a
diplomat, is the great Hon. Elhu Il.
Washburne. former friend OF President
Grant, now minister to France. The
.hculIIlHlIH are HIS DU-ntr-, an Ic mas
friends not few in every part OF the
State The fact is, Washburnc is a strong
man. lie has been out of the country.
and has not therefore been smirchcd
even by the suspicion of dishonesty that
has come to the hcarthstoncS of nearly all
the prominent Republicans within the
past few years As Il foreign minister
he has maintained the dignity of his
country abroad, unlike some OF the other
of our prominent representatives at the
courts of Europe. He is, in short, a
stron. man, and there is every
reason to believe he may de-
feat both Bcveridge and Cullom.
The other men don't amount TO much
in the race. They are out of even the
hope of receiving the nomination. Bev-
eridge. Cullom and Washburne are the
great gladiators, and they are all-or
| rather their friends arc--busy, working
night and day. In some parts OF the
state they are engaged in Il triangular
night that is very fierce. In Chicago aud
| Springfield, the most venom cXlides, and
cited action-lcaders are beginning to
tell tales out of school. Let the good
work go on.
