holders of despotism exuted over the ruin that
seemed destined to follow.
This aerid torrent Of vitupsratlon flowed In
eassahtly ior year before and six months
after the meeting of the Cincinnati convention.
That it made no great impression upon our
citizens was evidenced by the unanimitv with
which Gen. Grant was renominated. 1t flowed
unchecked, however, till the middle of Auoust
1872, when the Republicans opened their cam
paign. When they did begin they made short
work of the pyramid of falsehoods, against
which their attack was directed They riddled
it mercilessly, gathering fresh strength with
every charge they made upon it, until when it
crumbled to atoms in November those who
had helped to rear it were buried beneath the
ruins. There were few survlvals of that shape
less WI ok.
Alth lgh no individual aims Of Mr.. Bowles
were thwarted by this signal overthrow the
catastrophe must have occasioned him intense
disappointment and chagrin. He saw that his
own state and his own neighborhood had re-
lected his counsels and manifested their utter
disbelief in any and every imputation upon the
integrity Of the administration he had Joined
IN tradncing. Moreover he must have discov-
ereo, unless he was completely blinded BIZ
prejudice, that they were right and he was
wrong The proof on that point was soIconclu-
slVe that the only escape fiom being convinced
by it was to ignore it altogether. Still he was
IN position which it was almost as difficult to
recede from as to adhere to. "a man cannot
change his politics every thirty days." as an
unfortunate New England Senator who had
followed the fortunes Of Andrew johnson
pathetleally remarked, when he found his con-
sttuents all against him. Under such circum-
stances he ia more apt to become morbid and
irritable and to take despondent views of every
thing and to be censorious towards everybody,
That some such feelings animated the spirit of
the Springfield editor after 1872 his columns
pear abundant witness. That the recollection
OF his lapse into the "any g-to-beat- Grant,
combination embittered his latter days is NOR
ally certain. 1t was the one failure in an hon.
orable and useful life which in other respects
was record OF uninterrupted successes. The
omission OF it in any biographical sketch of
him would be simply to leave out q chapter
which is essential to the completeness of the
delineaton OF his character. Many tributes have
been and will be paid to his worth, and there
are few men who have left behind them a mora
spotless reputation. We may properly say OF
him as Anthony said of Brutus:
"This was the nobest Roman of them all;
All the conspirators save only he,
DID that they did in envy OF great Casar:
he only in general honest thought,
ana common good to all, made one Of them.'

done with it, we have no doubt"
The Portland daily press., 1878-01-22
Condemned on Suspicion.

PRESIDENT Seelye Of Amherst College Is a
| man who cannot be classed with the "ma-
chine politicians" and will not be accused OF
wish to defend or extenuate any abuses
which may exist in the public service. He
has figured consplcuously as ''reformer''
himself, and his sympathies are all with
those who seek to correct the evils and errors
arising from mal-administration and drive
unworthy men from Office. His defense OF
the Indian Bureau therefore cannot be con-
demned as inspired by unworthy motives.
Whatever estimate we may place upon the
value Of that defense its sincerity is undeni-
able.
Perhaps the light that has come to Presi-
dent Seelye through the attack on the Indian
Bureau, may teach him and well-meaning
men like him that other assaults on men in
public station have been quite as unreasona-
BILE and are justified by as little evidence.
"We have not yet reached the level" he
says, "where everybody in Office is to be sus-
pected or where when charges are openly
brought against public officer they cannot
be openly investigated" Unfortunately we
have reached precisely that level. The last
political campaign was conducted by the DEM
ocratic party in exactly that spirit. The
spirit and method condemned by President
Seelye have been the spirit and method of
the Democratic House during the last three
years, and OF the independent" journals
for the last six years. The popular branch
of the national Legislature has wasted the
time it should have devoted to national inter
ests in secret investigations of open charges.
1t has pursued the course which Prof. Seelye
condemns when applied to the Indian Bu-
reau-"an investigation where the accuser
seems to have brought whatever charges he
pleased and to have sustained them in what
ever way he chose, while the accused, until
the conclusion which condemned him was
reached, was sedulously kept in ignorance
both Of the nature of the charges and the
nature of their proof"
This method of investigation has been the
sole stock in trade of great political party
for years, and upon the results of it they pur-
pose to make their fight three years hence.
The Democratic committees are organized
for SANDER, and the victims selected are to
have no means of defending themselves. The
tactics which so nearly effected the election
ofa Democratic President last year are to be
tried again. An attempt will be made to
smirch the reputation Of all Republicans
whose strength with the people causes them
to be feared by their opponents. The cham
pion liars of the country, the men who have
won the belt for their exploits in falsehood,
who sport the blue ribbon for proficiency in
slander, will be called to Washington and
urged to outdo themselves in calumny. Des-
pite President Seelye everybody in Office is to
be suspected by these committees, and the
accuser will be invited TO bring whatever
charges he pleases and to sustain them in
whatever way he chooses, while the accused,
until the conclusion which condemns him is
reached, will be kept In ignorance both of
the nature of the charges and the nature oI
their proof.
