Hayes, hard times, Grantism and
jobbery.
Chicago Courier 1t will no doubt
he consoling reflection to Presi-
dent Grant that he presented to
Sitting Bull. the rifle with which
he killed Gen. Custer.
st. Louis Times: Sam Tiltlen is
a batchelor, but his batchelorhOod
has its compensations. He has no
brother-in law Casey, and didanot
marry into the Dent family.
Chicago Courier: Our Govern.
ment have lived one hundred years
despite sixteen years OF Radical rule,
and any government that can stand
that need have no fear Whatsoever
of perisbing.

to parties, and that it is going to he
fashionable to be honest aud clean
in the public service once MORE.
Chicago Courier The killing of
one of our bravest generals, and
three hundred of his command, by
the Indians is nothing. The killing
of one negro is enough to shake the
Republican party from s'centre to
circumference"
Cincinnati Enquirer /: They are
talking about nominating VIM. M.
Evarts for the Govornorship of New
York. But the Republicans can
hardly afford to pass by man with
$l5, 1000, 900, like e. d. Morgan, to
take up a man like Mr.. Evarts.
Ne,o Orleans Picayune The re-
publican state ticket is certain to be
badly beaten at the polls. whether
it is headed by warmoth or Packard.
Nothing can save it but the return
ing board, and we are of the opinion
that institution is already practical
~ effete.
Indianapolis Herald Rep: There
is no disputing the fact that the
Democratic ticket nominated at St
Louis is strong one, and the plat
form one calculated to inspire res
pect. Mr.. Tilden is man who car
consistently be supported by hon
esty and culture.
Indianapolis Sentinel DEM: II

the relation OF Hayes to the Admin
istration, that the whole party O
Louisiana carpet-baggers and off

upon the people Of that unhappy
land curing seven years of Grantism
is enthusiastic for his election.
N. Y. Nation Ind: Whatevei

the Democrats, and themselves
: what they say Of General Grant,
+ Administration is true. or the Ian
guage which honest men ought t
use; while what the Republican
: say of it is false and lays anybod,
who says it, however pure or res
pectable, open to just and grave sus

N. Y. World: And even now
with the column of Crook beatel
back by Sitting Bull, and with Gus
a ter's command massacred and tn
/ whole frontier threatened, Republ
can politicians refuse to hand owe
0 the control of Indian affairs to tn
e War Department, and persist i
claiming the Indian Bureau as th
spoil Of hypocrites and thieves.

With Orth's manifold sins to carr
the success of the Republican Sta
