JUDGE BONDS unseemly behavior is
meeting with the denunciation 1t deserves
from all but the hide-bound Republican
organs. The Philadelphia Times brings
it nome to its readers by asking: "WouId

From all that we cen gather by per-
sonal intercourse with the strong and up
right men of the Republican party, we
can safely affirm that it is their private
conviction Mr.. 'Tiiden was fairly elected
and is entitled TO the office. They are
not willing to be held responsible for a
contrary result, and yet they must see
that if thew sit still, the manipulations of
those who have assumed control of the
machinery will fasten the odium OF
defeating him upon the organization to
which they belong.-N. 7. journal Of

Tuy Washington correspondents have
forndsout what is the matter with Grant.
He thinks he has been bull-dozed with

teal Joke worked to perfection, and the
president has done nothing for week
but howl for troops, between drinks, TO
save him from the sanguinsry letter
writer's. 1t is fun for the boys, OF course
but rather costly to the country.
