tito election Of Republican President in
1876, nnd for tint reason it wants candi-
date nominated ut Cincinnati who can be
elected. The elections Of 1874 disclosed the
widespread popular discomfort and revolt at
the frauds and cor1uptions which had crcpt
into the public service. Tic revelations OF
1876, when tlieso crin,es ca1na to light in the
Cabinet aud in tho private Office of the Pros.
ident, left 10 doubt on any mind OF tho deop
necessity for publication OF tho admiuistra-
tion of tho Government. and raised tho ques~
ton whether tho Republican party would
undertake this work of reform OF not, Tho
country with universal approval greeted the
answer given by the Secretary Of the Trcas,i-
ry when ho dismissed hundred antl mora
dishonest officials, arrested them, tried them,
and convicted them when tin President
gavo the full force Of his authority to the
Secretavy's proceedings with direction to LIT
10 guilty n,nn escape. The whole country
was aroused with new forvor. Tho unani,ni-
ty will, which the Republicans led in the iHl-
peochment Of I,ELKsAp, mud tho readiness with
Which they consented to all investigations of
fraud, gars new life to tho Republican par-
elections OF lH7G much that It fal lost be-
