From the Unton { zo,ca, Eaole.


So far we have gone to show that the
declaration of S, B. Packard to be the
lawful governor of Louisian rests ON a
better basis than the claim of R, B. Hayes,
for the former needed no extrajudicial tri
bunal to pronounce 10 his favor, But the
president could not even let those two gov
errors alone to fight it out in the state but
he must needs be extremely anxious to find
out which he should recognize. So he sent a
commission of chicken-hearted luke-warm
half-and-half Republicans and a rebel
Democrat or two down to New Orleans to
find out-who was GOVERNOR No but
to find out who had the most rowdies, the
most desperate cut-throats. the best armed
and the best drilled banditti at his com
mand; to fnd out whom the old slave
ocrats, the unrepentent rebels, the white
mans government people would support.

The shout for Hayes aud ,Nheeleris no

along during the .iall aud upon the crown
ing of the returning board and Bradley
eoh mission frauds it was never very STEM
torious. We do not remember when it
ever rose above what. the musicians call
dimiaaendo. except now and then when
screech-owl chorus Of beef-eaters. sine
curists, and bayonet sustained carpet-bag-
gers took the floor, But now, even in the
hour of triumph-such as it is-the shout
is nowhere to be heard. Indeed. instead
of joyous shoutsin the victorious party in
this the second month Of the reign Of
Hayes, there is heard in every direction
the mutterings of discord and dissatis-
faction.
Hayes has politically proved traitor to
himself and the party which placed him
in the presidency. Moreover, towards the
very men who, to place him ID his present
position, waded up to the very eyebrows 10
fraud and venality, he has proved mons
ter of ingratitude.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1877-05-04

A stranger might naturally conclude
from such language as the foregoing that
Hayes was Democratic president, who
measure. Certainly if such we're the case
no stronger words of condemnation aud
abuse would be needed than are here en-
ployed by Republican newspapers to express
their regard for Republican president.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO AN MIGRATE AND
A TRAITOR.

FROM tae PdLeT60H PTeSS.
One of two things we believe President
Hayes to be: Either master mind in pol
tiles, or a poor dupe and present slave.
The Republican party-which is stronger
than any man, or any administration, or
any clique. or any policy, and which was
never more magnifcently irresistible ia all
its splendid career than when it felt the
prick of Andrew Johnson's spurs 10 its
sides when that wrong headed man
attempted to turn it into new aud hateful
courses-will soon discover the truth.
The Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1877-1885, 1877-05-04
A TERRIBLE DEAL OF THINKING.

from the BuBd C0naa1eFctaE AdCefIiSeF.
That there is not general satisfaction in
the Republican party at the policy pursued
10 settling the southern troubles is proved
by the fact that men who have done yeo
mans service for the good cause are the
most outspoken in saying that they fear
the administration has made mistake.
The dispatches refer very briefly to q
severe letter that has been written on this
subject by old Ben Wade. And great
many who do not express open disappro-
baton are keeping up "a terrible deal Of
thinking.

1T WON'T DO TO READ THEM OUT OF THE
PARTY-HAYEs's HUNGRY RABBLE.
From the Providence Journal
That there are a large number in the
Republican party who have grave doubts
as to the wisdom of the presidents sorth
ern policy needs no proof. True, the Re-
publican press is nearly unanimous in its
support, but the manner in which the sup
polt is given proves the doubtfulness of a
large minority. if not majority of the
party. Nearly all the leading papers take
special pains to say that President Hayes $
policy is an experiment. Multitudes OF
Republicans are willing to have the exper-
ment tried fairly and fully, yet withal have
20 little inward trembling for the result.
Many believe in Hayes's policy, but fear
to have it carried out; fear for the liberty
and safety Of the negro.
| 1t will not do to attempt to read out OF
the Republican party this large class oil
respectful doubters. Even if the Hampton
and Nichols men of the south could be
obtalnad in exchange. 1t would be losing
bargain. But to suppose that any coBsid
cradle portion of the southern white De
mocracy will join the administration party
Indicates a simplicity Of faith which is ex
tremely rare. and is worthy of better
cause. Indeed. why should they. wher
they can better control the policy of the
administration outside the party.
Unfortunately, the administration pa
pers. reporters, and writer's are furnishing
altogether too much reason for the doubts
in honest minds. The sneering, supercil
ious tone in which the Republican oppo
siton is spoken of by Washington cor
respondents, and the assumption of bat
: motives in all cases, is not calculated te
produce harmony. {
The willingness to subordinate right t.
expediency and majorities to might ha
not a leassurirg effect.
