NEWSPAPER INTERPRETATIONS.

From the New York Trlbune.l
When the Camerons took possession Of
ne Pennsylvania Republican convention
few weeks ago, and went through the
lhsurd performance Of piedging It to
dartranft, all the world read the an
that Simon offered the Com.
for SAFE once again as ne nao
done many sine before. We have no
right to be surprised that Gen. Grant
should start up so quickly with bid,
but it is profound disappointment that
the Senate of the United States in head
long haste should make itself party to
such transaction. Even the Senate
which rejected Mr.. Dana might have had
enough salf.respect to rebel against the
nomination Of Don Cameron.
From the Philadelphia T;mes.l
So J. Donald Cameron is Secretary OF
War, and Conkling has had one sweet
dream. of the shout the sturdy sons OF
PENNSYLVANIA are to give in his name at
the National convention. That there
will be disappointments, bitter, deep and
lasting, IA the attempted execution OF the
programme, will be but history repeating
itself, but the chief Jockeys IN the buck
ster vii. attain their foremost bent.
Grant loves Conkiing, but loves no one
overly much, AMI his hate for Blaine IS
darling attribute. He will not crafty
his Indifferent owe, Cor Conhl!Dg will be
ground to powder by he reaction against
the Presidential trade, but Blaine Will
fall with the pillars which have supported
the h.gh contracting parties while part
ing tne raimens Of Republicanism
Grant resentment against Blaine will
be fully grasiied, and ne will be content
to shed no tears over the fallen Conkllng.
Cameron will fai, to nominate Conksing,
who is his honest choice between the line
leaders, but ne will have his Cabinet
chair secure for a year, will go into his
tory as a Minister OF State, and he will
rot pause to weep over the plies Of SLAIN
behind him.
He will not steal, nor will ne hutter IN
every imaginary popular breeze that
Iisteth in his way, but when solid politl'
cal work is to be done, and bloody shirts
or amnesty ghosts or bayonet govern.
ments are to be clad in the purity of sub
lgsnary angels, count him in for double
honors. That ais appointment will offend
many Of his own faith is certainly true
and it will crush out the last hope o
thousands OF sincere Republicans wnc
have longed for day Of regeneration
that would end the Cameron rule; bu
there can be no Just complaint OF ). Don
AID Cameron's appointment Grant anf
Cameron are the fountains Of Republican
power in our State and nation respective
Nv. and should the streams be expected
to rise above their heads He tairl,
represents Republicanism in Pennsylva
MIA and it is most fit that he should wea
the garlands as he has been allowed t
fashion them. His entrance into the CaO
met but turns the glass Of Republican, 81
pon Itself, and the picture IS Simply re
dected truth.
