"a SEVERE BLOW.


The worst blow which the st. Louis
convention could have given to Gov
ernor Tilden, after nominating him
for the presidency, was dealt yester-
day by the nomination Of Tom Hen
bricks for vice president. The OBJ
ject in thus presenting to the country
the ludicrous spectacle of two horses
tied together by the tails and going
in opposite directions, was to carry
Indiana for the Tilden side at the Oc-
tober election. Tilden is known as
the most pronounced embodiment of
hostility to the legal tender swim
die, and of the demand for the specie
basis, in all America. lie is. for that
reason, especially obnoxious to the
legal tender swindle lunatics who
compose the greater part of all polit-
ical combinations in the semi-barbar-
Gus commonwealth of Morton and
Hendricks. Tom Hendricks is the
most conspicuous Indiana represent
alive of the legal-tender lunacy not
because he has any positive opinions
upon the subject (he never was known
to have positive opinion upon any
subject but because he is a thorough
ingrained demagogue, capable of cs-
pousing any charlatanry to gain the
applause of voting idiots. Tilden and
Hendricks are politically the very
polar opposites of each other. But
to elect Tilden it is necessary that he
should get the votes Of New York,
and to get the votes OF New York il
is deemed essential that Indiana
should vote in October against the
Hayes party, and to compass that re-
suit, 1t was thought best by the polit-
ical huckstcrs at ST. Louis to dcbauch
the virtue OF Tilden's nomination by
this shameful and most unnatural liza
ison, The arrangement is one of
brazen, palpable, shameless dishones-
ty. 1t is m example OF such political
whOremongering az DETAINED the old
Bourbon party in its worst days of
corruption, and rendered ii a stencil
in the nostril of honest men. Instead
Of helping to elect Tilden, IL is most
likely to help the other way. For, an
so offensive with the
stencil of political dishonesty cannot
fail to excite the Indignation as well
as the contempt of great many
voters who believe that there is such
q thing rs honesty in politics that is
worth contending for.'-Chfc ago.
