sidefing all the excuses made for defer
ring the extra session Of Congress till the

pretty solid conviction that President
HAYES wants time to collect the frag-

them into a good humor with each other
The election will be over in Ohio, where
the factions arc hottest, before the anti
HAYES congressman can get a chance to
open their batteries.

ES It would agree well with our pollt-
ical feelings to aid in tomentipg the dis
cord now so rifcin :he Republican party,
and the most approved method for wi.icn-
ing and deepening a,split snch as now
prevails, is to give aid and comfort tpthe
but as the case stands We
must be excused
The hostile forces, led by BLAINE,
WADE, PuILLIPs and others, base their
opposition on the ground that the admin
Iistra' ion has done precisely. asa Demo
cratic administration would have done,
in withdrawing its support from the bo-
gus republican State governments in
South Carolina and Louisiana-that
HAYES has "gone back on the "bloody
shirt" the banner. under which his ca n
paign was fought--that he has crippled il
he has not killed the main issue on which
his party has gained its victories: sec,

For these acts Mr. BLAINE and Mr..
WADE and Mr.. PHILLIPS AND bundled
Tor aithousand more Radical Republicans
may denounce Mr. HAYES to their hearts

word. of censure for NJ. HAYES, and nc
word Of comfort for his Republican as

Mr. HAYES can never compensate the
