Packard and Hayes

If further evidence was wanting to
nrove the utter inability of the Rad'-
cal machine-- Governments South I"
sust,in themselves without federal
support, the last act !" the farce -, OF
Packard's attempt to continue '"e
role of usurpcr ought certainly to be
convincing.
Having gone through all the forms
Of unwarranted and unconstitutional
legislation. after an overwhelming
defeat at the polls. he sets himself" up
as a ruler, with about the same gust"

cords to call the attention OF the PRE-
sident of the United States to the
fact, that he was open for business

much pleased to receive such rhyS'-
cal support as he might require TO
ovcrawe a lot of mutnous taxpayers
who objected to being rlnn1er'd Ion
ger by the ast"te statcsma" 'ro"

Philip drunk appealed to Philip
sober and Grant with the whole keI'
locr trouble before him fastened not
to "reecgnizc"-the appealing calls OF
Packard's loyal pretenders, W"ereop'
on the thing collapsed.
Packard wanders forth an embryo
Governor-one whose flower was not
suffered to bloom and whose power
and sweetness was nippcd in the bud,
followed by a gang Of would he re-
formers.
Sad as this may be, and II" doubt
is. to the loyal heart of Packard an'
|
his fellow conspirators, it has caused
, such general rejoicing among the
people as have been seldom before
> witnessed.
, This new departure of Grants put
o q new face on the National question
The majority for Nicholas wh"' thu

is left as uudisputcd defacto and tie
