A SUPERB MUpDLE.-lowa radicaism
is superb muddlc. The candidate for
governor is a wholesome liquor dealer,
and the platform he stands on favors pro-
hibition. The conventionfavoredinf imitation,
hut the legislative ticket TO be chosen is
expected to re-elect Senator Allison with
out opposition and Mr.. Allison is an avow-
ed hard-money man, An anti Hayes rad
ical introduced a HAYES resolution in the
convention for the purpose of having it
voted down and succeeded in his effort,
Yet the party expect to carry the State by
10000 majority. This curious conception
Of what platform is for, explains the in
ability of the Iowa republicans TO under
stand why the president is trying to obey
the one he was elected on.

The RCsSO-TURKIsH CRISIS. dis
patches appear To indicaye shat = critical
junction has been reached in the Russo
Turkish waf IN Europe, and that It few
DAYS may decide VII ther Russia shall be
compelled to recross the Danube and
wait the result Of another years campaign,
or press ON across The Balkias to C0nstan-

the Russians have been heavily defeated
both at Pievna, in Bulgaria, and at Yeni
Saghra, III Roumeha That serious fight
ing is going On north and south Of the
Balkans Is appar~nt, and II Is also ,proba-
bic that the c0mmunIca ions of the force
which penetrated INTO Roumelia have been
threatened, If not severed. The tact that
the Roumanians have been asked TO cross
the Danube ard occupy NikopoIis justlfies
suspicion that the ltussians find their
hands full, and may indicate grave rerer-
ses 1t Is difficult to understand how so
numerically superior an army as that of
the CZarowitch can have been beaten III
a pitched battle 10y a Turkish force, and
of course it VIII not do to rely upon the
Turkish accounts with any confidence.
But other indications point to a decided
check in the Russian advance, and with
the surprising and unexpected outcome Of
the Armenian campaign 10 guide US, 1t be-
comes conceivable that the Russians have
their Asiatic blunders, and got
themselves into dificulti>s by making too
light of their antagonist.

Hornet VALLEY SETTLERS. - At the
time of the Indian outbreak the settlers
of Hornet valley left their homes and
sought safety in Indian and Weiser val
leys- A week ago they had not returned,
as the news was then not very reassuring.
But at present, as the hostile Indians are
all reported In Montana, they would,
doubtless, be safe te return 10 their farms,
and harvest their crops. Hornet valley
IS about twelve miles in the mountains.
nearly north Of Indien valley, and is one
of the most beautiful places in Idaho.

President HAYES intended to 60 to the
White Sulphur Springs, but he has given up
the idea, and it is alleged that he was drIv-
en- from his purpose by Gail Hamiiton's
latest screed, in which she says that the
springs "enioy the reputation of being the
place where ID the summer of 1850 the cabal
Of traitors assembled, and finally determined
to break up the mion if Lincoln should be
elected. 1t is not soil on which loyal feet

GRANT ABRoAD.-0ne of our exchanges
Is Of the opinion that the ex-president
now holds the same position at English
parties that the elephant does at the cir
cus-he is the biggest Of the lot. But
Grants assumption that the honors paid
90 hiR are rendered 70 America through
HIM Is partly bloated arrogance and part
ly sham modesty. 1t is arrogance for him
To assume that he ia the man who is so
identified with this Republic as tc receive
IN us name the homage of nations. Louis
NV might say Il am the State" but
Grant cannot say Il am America" for in
point of fact no man ever left the executive
ciiice more thoroughly despised than he.
Evan 'ke hero-worshiping pcpulaee had
at last learned that he was selfish, leaden
desPot, = despiser of law, debaser Of all
noble political feeling, and powerful
friend OF systematic fraud, plulder and
corruption. The fact that his successor
IN office is fraud is the only thing that
makes his political memory toierable.
, 1877-08-11

The SrHNx-The radical papers now
have it that Hayes is the modern sphinx,
We thought Grant was that. Or is the
sphinx like quality transferable from one
Radical official to another, just the same
as the property and other things stolen
by them Oh, that poor sphynx at the
base of the pyramids! 1t is a wonder
that for very shame and disgust it don't
bury its face forever in the burning sands

The DANGER R--The destruction of rror.-
erty, the loss of life, the decentralization
OF society and all the evil results arising
out OF the late riots, are nothing. when
compared with the great wrongs that may
be perpetrated upon the country, under
the plea of future protection. Already
We hear the requests fer stronger COY
ernment-the argument that in stand
ing army alone Is there safety for states or
security for property Men point to the
powerless condition of municipal authori-
ties to preserve the peace-to the imbecil-
atty of the government to enforce It's laws
and prevent violence, and TO the disposi-
ton of the masses TO sympathize with
those who have committed outrages in the
name of the honest laborer, and demand

A Curious FACI-It is curious fact
that radical president, counted into his
office by radical managers in defiance Of
decency and right, should so soon ALLEVIATE
the party management from himself, aud
rely for his sole hope of endorsement and
support upon the party which was de-
frauded out Of the Office he holds The
transitory character of the issues of Amer
lean politics was never more strikingly il
lnstrated

while the whole party will be in an up
roar, and the air will he thick with flying
missiles. 1t viii he very embarrassing

that was held in Florida, early in last

executive order. But 1t was run Ia the
