hostility Of the people to subsidized rail
road schemes, we have yet to learn that
Mr.. Wheeler vas ever corruptly infiuen-
ced or ever suspected in his dealings en-
terprises that formerly received the most
patriotic and enthusiastic approval of
the entire country.
Another important element Of Mr..
Wheler's strength is his well-known
conversation in relation to the South.
He was the author of what became fa-
nous under his name as the "Wheeler
Compromise, whereby..the hostile fac
lions in Lollisiana were conciliated, and
a condition of peace and comparative
good feeling was brought out from what
threatened a new civil war. This con-
Citation was brought about by Mr..
Wheeler's personal activity and judg-
ment, and his final adjustment Of affairs
was conceded on all sides to have been
iudicious, fair. and honorable. It will
be remembered that the state of things
was chaotic, that parties were implace-
able, and the whole country seriously
disturbed. Mr. Wheeler's efforts re-
selted in permanent establishment of the
Kellogg State Government, and the re-
organization of the State Legislature OF
q basis representing the honest popular
vote as nearly as might be. All parties
in Louisiana and the entire American
people have reason to be grateful to Mr..
Wheeler for his herculean Iabors and
judicial fairness in that controversy.
Hayes and Wheeler-New York and
Ohio-the soldier and the civilian-the
West and the East,--and both represen-
tingthe cardinal principles of the Repub-
ican party, North and South, East and
West,-these are the leaders to Republic
an victory, assuring peace, prosperity,
good feeling, and honost Government for
another period of four years.

Is. We charge the Democratic party as
being the same in character and spirit as
when it synlpathized with treason, with
making its control of the House of Rep
resenatives the triumph and the oppor-
tunity of the nations recent foes, with
reasserting and applauding in the nation
al capitol the sentiments of unrepented
rebellion, with sending Union soldiers to
the rear and promoting Confederate SOL
diers to the front, with deliberately pro-
posing to repudiatc the plighted faith OF
the government, with being equally false
and imbecile upon the overshadowing
issues of the day, with defeating the ends
n.ent and obstruction of investigation,
with proving itself through the period of
It's ascendency in the lower House OF
Congress utterly incompetent to admin
lister the Government. We warn the
country against trusting a party thus
alike unworthy, recreant and incapable.
II. The National administrator merits
commondation for its honorable work in
the management of domestic and foreign
affairs, and President Grant deserves the
continued and hearty gratitude of the
American people for his patriotism and
his immense services in war and in peace.

THE NONLNA TON

THE Republican National Convention
won a double victory for the country.
It nominated a ticket which Will be
heartily accepted and Endorsed by tie
Republicans and Reformers in all parts
of the country. It won its second VIC
tory in the great triumph which the in
tel1igence and responsibility of the party
gained over the desperate politicians who
had attempted to capture the Conven-
ton. Intellect and character extorted
victory from those who claimed to have
secured it in defiance of the moral sense
Of the country The Convention has
earned the thanks of the American
people for the courage and devotion
which it brought to the selection of a
ticket entitled TO the respect and conf
dence of the nation, and for the frmness
withswhich it rejected any other. The
nomination is the triumph of Reform,
the triumph OF the popular demand for
the publication of thepublic service, and
the restoration of responsibility and
accountability in the administration of
the Government.
Mr.. Hayes is, in all that pertains to
the great principles and policies of Re
form, retrenchment, and integrity of
administration, as acceptable as Mr..
Bristow. Less known to the whole
people, perhaps, he is wicely known IS
man with clear head, sound judg-
ment, patriotic record, and, above all,
clean hands; a stranger to the lobby, and
with no entangling business alliances
with subsidy seekers or gamblers in
national credit
For the nomination of man SO pure
publicly and privately, and at the same
n Gol f1,ar ,-ofo
atory policies which the prevailing
corruption has made SO essential, the
Convention will deserve and receive the
grateful thanks of the country,-thanks
for what the Convention did do, and
thanks, for what it SO bravely refused
to do.
We have no fears for the result of the
election of 1876. The battle was won
practically, at Cincinnati. 1t is imma-
terial who may be nominated at ST.
Louis, the Republican party has been
saved from the only defeat that threat
ened it. The campaign viii be an
aggressive one. War upon the whole
Confederate lien, no matter by whom
it may be commanded There will be
no hesitation, no detection, no faltering.
The whole Republican party, and the
friends of peace, of civil aad personal
liberty, of the maintenance of law and
the protection of the citizen, of what
ever party, will recognize in the nomi-
nation of Hayes the certain guarantee of
all this. The country will also have
reason to rejoice that there is nothing
left to doubt OF obscurity on the matter
Of finances. An honest President, an
honest Government, and an honese
Administration, of necessity demand
that the nation shall have honest money.
All these are the inevitable consequences
to follow the nomination anj election of
Hayes. Chicago Tribune.

PRESIDENT GRANT made speech at q
grand ratification meeting in Washing
ton, on Monday night, in which he used
the following words: ct cannot withhold
my approval of the excellent ticket given
you by the national repu blican conven-
ceive the cordial support CT all races in all
sections. I know Governor Hayes per-
sonally, and I can surrender with I'LL
feigned pleasure my present position to

Pen PICTURE of Gov. HAYES. His
head and face are good; the former high
and expansive, the latter well filed out
by an ample light brown beard. Judg
ing from his eyes, he has studied long
and hard. What particularly struck me
was his voice, its fibre end resonance. I
heard that in the war he was one of the
western army, aid that no bugle blast
could thrill the soldiers souls like the
ringing tones of Hayes, voice sweeping
along the lines. There was that quality
in it as he spoke that indicated grit and
resolution, and yet it was the voice of a
modest, unpretentious man, vino would
decline to cross the street, if it took
him out of his way, to be President of
the United States. There was none of
that nervous evasiveness about him in
the presenceiof an interviewer peculiar to
most political candidates. He talked of
the situation as if he had no more con-
Germ in it than his questioner. and this
way very refreshing. His delivery was
easy, clear, and fluent"

THE following is about the sum and
substance of Democratic platforms this
year: Resolued, That the Republican
party is fearfully corrupt; that we, the
Democratic party, are pure, and should
have all the offices, and that if we are
not speedily but in possession of the
government, it viii go to everlasting
smash. ResotUed, That we are IL favor
of a return to specie payments; that
greenbacks in unlimited quantities are
all the money needed; that specie pay
ments are an ldeality, and that we are
in favor of avoiding the discussion of
all subjects upon which there is diff
ference Of opinion. If the Democratic
National Convention will adopt this
platform, and nominate TiIden for Pres
ident and Bill Allen for Vice President,
or vicc Uersa, the Democratic party will
appear in its true light.

PRESIDENT GRANT on Saturday, sent
a special message to Congress calling
attention to the near approach of the
end of the fiscal year, aud to the en-
barrassment which must ensue should it
expire before the appropriations for
next year shall have been made. As O
remedy he suggests the passage of a
JOINT resolution extending the provis-
ions of all apprations for the present
fiscal year to the next in cases where
there is failure on the 1st of July to
supply such appropriation.

Cortland Wagons.
Mr.. JOHN LANDRETH

has purchased one of those celebrated
Cortland Platform Wagons from New
York, which in every respect is as near
perfection as can be devised. It has
come to be acknowledged that the Plat
form Wagon is the best form of all 9TH
ers for general business purposes, par
ticularly for the Farmer, it having great
er range from light to heavy loads, car
rying it with the greatest ease and safety,
being distributed over greater number
of springs, and supporting the load
nearer the wheels.
To the Farmer to whom n light-draft, easy
riding wagon, capable of carrying from one to
l,500 pounds is a necessity, the Platform Wagon
is peculiarly suited, carrying the family TO and
from church and town, grain to mill, produce
to market etc, taking the place of the cum
bersOme wagon and light buggy.
ALL WORK WARRANTED.
No poor Wagon is sent from the shop, and if
desired written guarantee IS given. None but
the best material is used aud only skilled work.
men employed, and by buying mat erial in large
quantities, and the use of every modern inven-
ton in the way of machinery, they are enabled
to make the best wagon for the least money.
Mr.. Landreth is Agent for Manitowoc county
and has made Arrangements by which he can
sell them hereat the New DIRK factory cash
price, and no extra charge for freight, and his
prices are astClishi.lgly low. as every one must
admit. Mr. I-andreth viii be glad to show
sample wagons at McAlister Farm, ana give
any Information desired.
Any word left at the store OF j. E. Plumb &
Bro. will receive prompt attention.
The fame of the Cortland PlatformsWagon is
worldwide and takes the lead of all other plat
form wagons in the essentials of lightncss, dur
ability, excellence of material and work man
ship. A few general facts will give the reader
some idea of the amount of business done by
the company. The shops and yards cover near
ly three acres In these shops they employ I2O
and turn out Is finished wagons per day.
Beside the office in Cortland they have West
ern Office at Chicago, and are otherwise repre-
Sented in other parts Of the country. The COM
paily is now shipping west by the International
Freight Line. and two cars per day are fequir-
ed foe taeir use. 800 Wagons were sold by
