Fe1dfd Questio.-Whether the rifle teams
who have visited our city lately really de-
probation for the peculiar mode In which
they have been displaying themselves as
rifemen. What we refer to is the ridiculous
positions In which they fire. One placed
himself like the letter z, while another,
supported on his bullock, rested his rifle on
his toes, and thus firing; and numerous other
Zlgzag shapes were assumed, which are not
called for In case Of necessary shooting, and
are entirely out OF the course of tactics. The
question is. Why do they not stand perpen-

THE GREAT CH1NGE or HEJRT.

New proofs Of the earncstness of the repre-
sentative men, the leaders and the presses of
the Democratic party are at hand. A good
many of their newspapers have been for the
mast three or four months donouncing Gov.
Tiden as n sham rcformer and Il humbug, u
political trickstcr and a corrupt selfish, de-
signing politician. Some of these newspa-
ncrs have gone so far as TO attack
his personal integrity and charge him
with corrupt and dishonest practices.
They urged that he must not be
nominated at st. Louis because of his bad
character as politician, his unfortunate
record in connection with certain railroad en-
terpriscs, and his weakness as candidate.
One would have supposed from reading these
earnest and impassiOned eXh0rtdti0ns to the
Democracy, these shouts of warning with head
lines and startling punctuatlonS, that the
nomination of TIlden would be nothing less
than public calamity, and that at the very
least 1t would be fatal to the Democratic
party. They did seem very much III earnest
about it; fairly saturated in fact with the
belief that Gov. Tilden was bad man, very
had man. and that at all odd he must he
defeated of the nomination. They kept it up
until the last moment before the Con-
yention at St. Louis reached its result
and Tilden became, in the regular
and approved manner, under the two
thirds rule and with all the usual formalities,
the candidate of this great and good and glo-
rious party. And then what did they do !
Say it was fatal to the party? That it was
disastrous to the country7 That he could not
be elected7 Not very much. No; the mo-
ment he became the candidate every man of
them dropped his little squirt-gun and
sand with hardly gulp, or sensation
of swallowing with an effort, "Hurrah for
"Tilden.n To-day they are all aglow with en-
tbusiasm at the mention of his name. Rail-
roadsi Bless you, he doesn't know what rail-
road is. Reformer Why, who ever knew

The st. Louis ticket ought to be beaten.
The Convention completed in the nomination
OF Mr. Hendricks the evil which it began i'll
its COMPROMISE with the inllatiOnists. Mr..
Hendricks is an able and worthy gentleman,
Tat there is no use in Disgusting the fact that
lis chief popularity now comes from his
financial heresies, AMI that he is nominated
less because he is good man than because
he is acce ptable to the regulators. Eastern
Democrats may amusc Themselves with
the pretcnse that thcy have demolished
the rag-baby, bGt the whole country
nevertheless perccives the truth. Cheering
themselves hOarse over the Threatened repeal
of the resumption clause, Faltci!ng with at
tacks upon the national credit, and naming
for Vice-President and possible President of
the United States one of the most conspicuous
of the papcT-money statesmen. the Democracy
in spite of the empty professions Of the plat
form sets its face i'll the direction of rcPudia-
ton.
We have cordially recognized Gov. Tildcn's
great services to tie State and his eminent
fitness for the highest Office in the land, and
we rejoice that the Democratic party has been
driven to nominate so admirable caLdidais.
But yOked with Mr.. Hendricks and DISTRACTED
| by bad platform, independents cannot take
| the risk of voting for him. The election Of
President involves the triumph of party in
Congress and throughout the country, and if
the inflatI0nists who cOwed the Convention and
forced upon it policy which majority of the
delegates knew to he false should gain possession
of the House of Representatives., not even the
firmness and ability of a President Tilden
could save the Union from enormous disa>t,r r.
The Republican professions are weak, but they
are sound as far as they 60, while the cbarac-
ter of the Republican candidates gives them
a significance which thcy have not when stand-
ing alone. In supporting this ticket at least
we know precisely what we de.
Mr.. Hayes has yet to write his letter OF ac-
ceptance. The party has still to develop some
minor features of It's policy. But we have no
msgivings. We are confident that population
and Grantsm will find no favor from Rcpab-
lcans in the campaign that is opening. and
that the party which saved the integrity Of
the Union in war will now save its honor
