The New York Times is unhappy over the
action OF its Republican convention at Roches-
ter. II declares Chat most Of its members re-
turned 10 their homes with The melancholy
consciousness that their great (Mr Conkling)
leader ha6 made fool of himself, and that in
blindly allowing him to take ihe lead their
own folly was hardly less than his" Even
the New York Commercial Adyertiser, which
has been regarded as Mr.. Conklihgs organ is
disgusted with the exhibition which the Sena-
tor made of himself. 1t chafacterizes his at
tack upon Mr.. Hayes civil service policy ''as
a vulgar war upon the national administra-
ton, !" and says Gin the judgment of some Of
bis best friends he made a great mistake-a
mistake which may loose him his return TO the
United States Senate" No one need he un-

pie take no stock in Mr.. Conklings proceed
ings, Republicans or otherwise.
