The Ellsworth Reporter is ont in a
strong article in favor of Hon. S.A.Cobb
for Governor. Wo bad hoped that the
Western papers and the Western people
would be almost unanimous for Hon
John Guthrie. Mr. Cobb has been fav-
ored with ono of the best positions in the
State at the hands of the people, and his
labors for the party have thus been
partially rewarded. Hon John Guthrie,
rs chairman of tho Republican State
Central Committee, has borne the heat
and burdens of the day and has never
been rewarded for his services BIZ any
prominent Office. He, in our opinion,
Of all others, is entitled TO the office, and
we hopc TO sea the West unite on him.
The Saline Valley Register has lately
come out frr Guthrie for Governor and
we hope otherWestern papers will follow
snit--not excepting the. excellent Els
worth Reporter. We arc for John Guthrie
for Governor, because we believe him To
be an honest and ii noble man true
and fearless "defc- der Of Of the faith",
etc. And in this connection we propose
Senator Horace Cooper Of Beloit for
Lieutenant Governor.

Convict Printers.

A. .he last meeting of the Typographical
Union OF this city President Dalton was
authorized to appoint committee 20 60 TO
Albany and oppose the passage of a bill in
relation TO the public printing. Five or six
wears ago the firm of Fisher & Swayne
and made contract for convict labor at a
low rate. Tue printers carried the subject
to the Legislature. and that body passed an
act prohibiting such employment of con-
yic.e and the contract was annulled, rhe
contractors receiving $4,000, it is said. The
National Printing Company. organized by
Swayne. now has an establishment on Ran
dall's Island, having contracted with the
Society for the Reformation Of Juvenile De-
Erquents for the employment of the boys
under their charge. A large building. con
sisting of three tloors, fifteen by thirty-fve
feet, we'll stocked with presses and mate
rials, is used. One hundred or more lads
have been taught to set type, and their
labor sold, it is said, at the rate Of fifteen
cents day each.
The National Printing Company obtained
part of the city work. General Fitz John
Porter, ex commissioner Of public works,
sent notice to the controller that there
after the printing under control of his
department would be done on Rsndalls
Island. A few weeks ago q new arrange
ment went into effect, by which the dis
position of this large patronage was given
to the board of city record, in which the
controller and the corporation counsel are
associated with the commissioner of public
works, and since then the National Print
ing Company seems to be doing nearly all
the city printing.
The Typographical Union will oppose the
passage Of q law to legalize the Randslps
Island printing establishment. President
Dalton says: I'VE would like to place the
officers of the Society for the Reformation
Of Juvenile Delnquents, as we'll as those
OF the National Printing Company, on the
stand to tell what they know about print
ing contracts. The company's occupation
of city and county property without paying
rent is illegal and improper. The society is
not exempted from the terms Of the statute
forbidding the use of convict labor, and q
large proportion Of that in the society g care
would probably come under this head

Morrisou's Opinion of His Party.

The Washington correspondent Of the
Chicago Tribune, in speaking of the politi-
cal probabilities Of the parties, says:
met Morrison, Chairman Of the Ways
and Means Committee, last night, and ask
ing, WHO is your candidate tor the Presi-
dency9" received the response, Judge
David Davis Of Illinos.'
But" quoth l, will not the Democracy

party for Liberals"
"tt's hard to tell what they will do," re-
piled Mr.. Morrison; but with quiet en-
phasis, "Tm afraid they won't do anything
sensible
"Oh! those Scutherners, you meant"
mo, it's not the fellows who got whipped
who have need to learn" was his answer;
..it's some of our Northern fellows who
haven't learned anything" and he wae
called away at that moment, and lett me
pondering whether he hadn'timparted more
information than all the people l had at
tempted to extract news from that night.
Spea aker Kerr told me, the other evening
that before the session was ended the Wis
dom of his appointment OF Morrlson a
chairman of the most important COMMITTEES
of the House would be vindicated. Slnc'
Morrison has arrived at realizing sense Q
what is tho matter with his party, it wouit
not be matter of surprise if the Speaker
assertion should prove well founded.

Total. eco s3teo on

Prominent Democrats IN New Orleans
have been telegraphing here that the ad-
mission OF Mr.. Pinchback would be regard
ed as virtual abandonment of the Wheeler
compromise. and speak vaguely Of repeti.
ton Of domestic violence. Mr.. Wheeler
has received several dispatches 10 that
effect. At the same tine, cert ain parties
here are sending dispatches TO New o.
leans stating that Mr.. Kerr and other
Democratic leaders would also regard Mr..
Pinchback's q admission az q violation Of the
compromise. These gentlemen deny the
charge. With few EXCEPTIONS the Demo
Gratis in the House hare carefully abstained
from expressing an opinion on Mr.. Pinch
backs case, or anything else likely to
reopen tie Louisiana muddle. The dis
patches were intended to intnence the con-
servative Senators, and secure, at least. a
further postponement Of the case.
OF all the buncombe specials" sent from
this city, those appearing in certain New
Orleans journals are the worst. The ''ex-
element over the publication of the
charges against Mr.. West must have been
confined to remote localities. while the .'ex-
citing session of the Judiciary Committee
on the nomination OF Mr.. Billings was not
held at all, owing to the absence of Judge
Edm1nds from the city at that time.
The vote of the committee on the confr-
nation OF Mr.. Billings was strict party
one, all the Republicans voting for and the
Democrats against.
For the benefit of the Picayune, which
has been making snxious inquiry, would
say ths. Mr.. Fairfax, the newly appointed
assie.ant appraiser. is resident Of Tensas
parish, and one OF the best edcuated colored
man Of tha. or any other section of Louis

The testimony in the cases Of Messrs. Dar-
rail- and Morey has just been printed, and
some time will yet elapse before the CON-
mittee will be able to take up either one.
Among the recent combinations by the
Senate is that Of Colonel Thomas c. c. Sulli.
van, commissary at New Orleans, to rank
as major from March. 1873. INDEX.
