days advance for spots and 1-32 u 1890
easier for futures, while sterling ex-
change was without variation and easier
freights favored exports. The demand,
nevertheless, was slack and only
limited business was done during the
morning, after which the move
ment exhibited rather more ANNA
ton, without much activity and the
days sales were confined to the moder-
ate amount noted above. As n general
thing factors adhered to their previous
pretcnsions for low middling and the
higher grade, especially for all clean,
white and good staple kinds, but in
some cases, in order to effect sales, were
willing to accept offers which they had
previously refused Good ordinary and
the lower grades continued irregular
and easy. Upon the whole nothing
transpired to require any change in our
quotations.

REFORM.

It strikes US as just a little
cheeky, this holding up of Gov
ernor Tilden as THE Reformer
par excellence. 1t is a poor COM
pliment to the Democratic party
this virtual assumption that he
is the only prominent man in its
ranks who is entitled to be re-
garded as a Reformer, and that
he is the only man who can be
relied on to carry out Democrat
ic reform. We hold that De-
mocracy is Reform, and that no
man can be a true Constitution
al Democrat and not be a Re-
former. The Reform the country
needs is the restoration of Hon
EST Constitutional Government.
This embraces all the reforms
demanded by the people. To
accomplish this Reform tits only
necessary to elect a sound, able
and consistent Democrat to the
Presidency in November next,
whether it be Hancock, Parker,
Hendricks, Holman, Thurman,
Tilden; Church, Seymour, Bay
ard, Randolph, Ingersoll, Eng
lish, Eaton, CASTOR or Adams.
So believe the honest masses of
the country, and so believed Mr..
Bird, of Massachusetts, "an orig
inal, earnest, Radical, patriotic
Republican" when he said:
cit is my profound conviction
that the worst Democrat whose
nomination at St. Louis is pos
sible, is safer for the country
than the best Republican whose
nomination is possible at Gin
cinnati."

OUR CHOICE.-We have re-
trained from expressing any
preference for any particular
man or men-save in one in
stance in which we expressed a
preference for Hendricks-as the
nominees of the st. Louis Con-
vention, as we believe the De-
mocracy OF the South will poll
their full strength for whoever
may be the nominee; but in
looking over the situation, we
have fixed in our mind certain
combinations that we believe
would lead to certain success.

resolve OF the Radicals to bring
their strongest man to the front.
Nescark IN. J.) Advertiseer: The
chances are not abundant of pick

woods, and the party that deserts
it's leaders generally encounters de-
feat. LIS
N. Y. Herald: What we want is
a fair, up-and down, hit-from-the-
shoulder, courageous canvass, with
republican on one side and a dem.
0crat on the Other-a canvass for
men, not myths.
Baltimore Gazette: Washburne

him in the army; saved him again
and again from removal and dis
grace, and finally made him Presi.

Should the two-thirds rule,
which has heretofore obtainel
in Democratic Conventions be
adhered to, it will require 1872
votes to nominate a candidate

the power of the Southern and
the Eastern States to dictate the

not dictate the platform, as the

N. Y. Sun: The Charleston News
and Courier, the leading Chamber
lain organ in South Carolina, is adj
vising the Democrats not to make O
separate nomination for Governor,
but to vote for Chamberlain aud
thus assist in the maintenance of
carpet-bag rule. But with bank
rupt treasurey, quarter of the real
property in the State advertised for
sale for delinquent taxes, and the
certainty of y greater increased tax
alton next year before them as the
results of Chamberlain's financier-
ing, the real representatives of the
Democracy are unable to see the
expediency of following such advice,
and propose to run a straight Dem
ocratic ticket. II they had resolved
upon that policy year ago, when
the dessensions among the South
Carolina Republicans were at their
height, they would now have a good
prospect of carving the State; and
with vigorous action they may pos.
sibly do it yet.
