you fellers."

has more to do with the motion of the
coach than all these reformers have
to do with the control of the Republican
party.
GRANT has had up to date no less
than twenty-four Cabinet Ministers, and

heart, and that one is Cameron, the
head boss of Hayes and Wheeler.

OMAHA Herald: Assaults upon the
private character of Samuel j. Tilden
roll away from him like water from the
back of duck. Every charge Is met
with prompt and overwhelming refnta-
ton. His public record is equally in
vulnerable. No man was ever nomi-
mated for high position in this country,
not even Silas Wright or ANDREW JACK
SON himself, who is mere apseiuteiy lree
from reproach.

New YORK Sun: How idle for Gov.
Hayes to talk about his purpose to run
the Government, if he is elected, on re-
form principles. He cannot change the
Republican machine or unseat the
present leaders of the party, who from
Blaine to Boss Shepherd, from Spencer
to Babcock, are at work for his election.
He is not man of the strength of
character, personal weight, and resolute-
ness of will to overcome these men, now
controlling the Repubican party, even
if we take him at his word and peileVe
that he desires to do 1t. The only nope
of reform is in the election OF Iliden, a
clean sweep of the Government, and the
introduction of new principles OF ad-
ministration and new men In high once.
Mr.. JENNINGS, the efficient editor of
