This is the position in which you
have placed Mr.. Strait by your state
ment that he was to be forced up;
on the party by the: potent influ-
ence of federal patronage" You
have put club in the hands of his
enemies wherewith they may slaugh-
ter him, and if he should be nomi-
mated the weapon will be used effect
lively against him.. For our part we
don't believe your assertion. If the
people of the district attend to their
business as they ought, the influence
Of executive patronage will not be
potent enough to control the con-
ventlou in Mr.. Straits or: any other
mans interest. Again, we do not
believe that all the federal Office
holders of this district, nor the half
of them, are particularly interested
in having Mr.. Strait nominated, and
in making the assertion you did, we
think you created a bugaboo which,
is largely imaginary.

Hon.: B.. f.. Ferris, recently
one Of California's rich men, who
RETIRED from business about six
months ago worth several hundred
thousand dollars, having lost'all his
own money and $4,000 which he
held in trust in stock gambling,
drowned himself by jumping from
the hurricane deck of a steamer,
a few days ago. He had tied his
feet together and swallowed a dose
ofpoison before taking the fatal leap.

The Grange Advance wants to
know !: case the Hon. H. B. Strait is
re-nominated "what will the Gazette
do?" and "what course Dug hit the
people to pursued" In answer it may
be stated that the Gazette has always
supported the republican ticket, and it
knows of no present reason why it
should not again this fall. And unless
the democratic party nominate better
men than they did two and four years
ago the people ought to elect the repub-
lican candidate, whoever he may be, by
an overwhelming majority Hastings

nominated by the potent influence

that Mr.. Straits denomination is a

Reports from the cities along
the lines Of the great railroads con-
vey the intelligence that hundreds
of tramps are on the move, steering
westwardly. Many of them are
well-intentioned people, driven from
their: homes in the east by scarcity
of employment and consequent pow
erty; but many are rough charac-
tiers, hardened probably by the hard
ships they have had to endure, un-
til they are now disposed to steal or
even murder. While it is we'll
enough to guard against the outlaw
ry Of this class Of strangers, it ought
not to be forgotten that they are
human, and that a large proportion
of them have only become idle
through absolute necessity. When
ever they are willing to work and
can be provided with employment,
give them chance to show that
they are not deserving of that con-
domination which is too generally
pronounced against all unfortunates.

A Vital Matter.


One Of the most important ques-
tons before the people Of this coun-
try in the approaching political CAM
paign is: whether the dominant
party shall be used merely TO build
up and sustain a Gordon of federal
office-holders, all having single
aim andSsimilar interest, and these
nothing more than the perpetuation
of their own lease Of power. 1t IS
a generally prevailing sentiment
that change Of administration is ab-
solutelY necessary for the purifca-
ton and reformation of the public
service-to get rid Of the barnacles
and inaugurate new order of things
that the country may feel that it
is not yet under the dominion of
any administration nor ruled by any
one set of men, whose personal in
terests will be likely to sway their
judgments and control their political
conduct.
The people propose to have
voice in the selection of the next
President and, likewise, in choosing
congressional representatives, and
if the political managers SO control
the nominating conventions Of the
republican party as to deprive them
of this privilege, the result will most
probably be the overthrow of the
party. Or, if it succeeds this time,
in the absence of an opponent wor-
thy of public confidence, it will be
so broken and demoralized as to be
powerless hereafter. The question,
then, for republican politicians to
decide is, whether the party shall be
destroyed, or whether those who
desire to use it for the advancement
of their personal ends shall be CON-
manded to stand aside and allow the
people to be heard and their will
obeyed.
Because a man has been sent to
congress one or two terms furnishes
no valid reason why he should in
sist upon being sent again. If the
idea is allowed to prevail that the
man in Office, by means of his ap-
pointees and without personal merit
and contrary to the wishes Of his
party and the people generally, can
still force himself into coveted posi-
tons, then, indeed, is there no safety
for the country. If the machinery
of caucuses and conventions can be
manipulated successfully by those
interested, not in the popular well
fare, but in securing their own re-
tention in power, to secure such
results, then it is high time for the
people to declare their independ-
ence from the influence of such
Vaccinations against their liberties.
The political reform which the coun-
try demands will not be allowed to
stop with the selection of candidates
for the presidency and vice-presi-
>dency, but must pervade all branch
.es and departments of the govern
:ment in. order to be satisfactory to
the people.

The democratic papers are now
engaged in "wr1tlng down" Law
renee Harvey, the witness who swore
that he paid Speaker Kerr $3.50 to
induce him to procure the appoint
ment of Augustus P. Green as lieu
tenant in the army, in 1866. Why
is it that these papers are ready to
vouch for every witness who appears
against republicans but furiously con-
denim all who say a word against
democrats ? Do they not see the
improperly of such conduct ? We
are sorry to know that Harney's
accusation against Mr.. Kerr is
strait-forward, circumstancial, and
strongly confirmed by the corrobo-
rative evidence. 1t may not be
true, but it rests with Mr.. Kerr and
his friends to show why he appoint
ed a man from New York, a repub-
lioan, and one he did not know,
rather than political friend from his
own district in Indiana. 1t matters
not whether Mr.. Harvey is a good
or bad man, his story will be believ-
ed unless it i, shown the Mr.. Kerr
had some other plausible reason for
urging the appointment of Mr..
Green. AS for Mr.. kerrs poor
health, it is babyish to plead that un-
der existing circumstances. He is
we'll enough to explain his conduct.
