laws respecting the observance eli Sun
day, with view to make them odious.
Such contest would be much more ex-
citing in great city than in the towns
or watering places where similar at
tempts have attracted so much atten-
ton.
New York World (Dem.): Mr.. "Chow-
ley" Foster, of Fostoria, we see, has Gar
ranged his business affairs so as to give
his entire time to the campaign" We
do not remember that when the Union
was in peril Mr.. "Chowley' Foster, OF
Fostoria, so arranged his business affairs
as to give his entire time to the cam
paign," though Messrs. Ewing and Rice
did so arrange theirs
indianapolis Journal (Rep.): ltdoesn't
seem to have occurred to the Democrats
that the alleged military interference
with the election in this city in 1864, IL
it took place at all, which it did not, took
place before the passage of the law which
they are trying to repeal. The latter
was passed in 1865, and to use the alleged
military interference in this city IN 1864
as an argument against that law is gross
ly absurd.
Philadelphia Press (Rep.): Mr.. Iilden,
it is said, contradicts the report that he
intends to make an extended summer
trip to Colorado, and adds that "although
he hopes at some time to visit Colorado,
the distance to be travelled entails SO
much fatigue that he does not dare at
tempt it at present." We sincerely hope
that Mr.. Tilden's health will improve.
All Republicans are anxious to have him
head the Democratic ticket in 1880.
Chicago Times (Dem.): Mr. Bayard's
backbone is not greatly admired by the
soft-money, shinplaster Democracy. The
Cincinnati Enquirer is found declaring
that it would be much better for the
National Democracy to-day if Senator
Bayard would move his bag and baggage
into the Republican party Perhaps he
would, if he weren't afraid of the soft
money, shinplaster Republicans like
Ferry.
Chicago Telegraph (Ind.) J: The Senate
Judicial Committee have shown the Pres
ident the courtesy of assuring him by
official note that there is no
personal objection to Secretary
McCrary nomination as sue
ccssor to Judge Dillon; and as soon as
there is a legal vacancy, confirmation
will be recommended. If all the busi-
ness Of Congress were conducted on this
amicablc basis, we should hear less about
"plantation manners"
st. Louis Times-Journal: It's an i'll
wind that blows nobody any good. We
never hear that a freight train has been
wrecked that we don't set the world
down as being well rid of one or more
thieving tramps. The average freight
car seems to have been invented for the
purpose of conveying The average tramp
from one locality to another. A wrecked
freight car invariably means a deed
tramp. It's an expensive but effective
way of getting rid Of very undesirable
class of nuisances.
New York Times {Rep.) The net re-
suit of three months Of Congressional
turmoil will then have reduced itself to
this: At the few elections for vacant
seats in the House of Representatives to
be held in 1879 the pay of the Deputy
Mar:hals will become charge against
the Government, to be provided for in a
deficiency bill, instead OF being paid out
Of the appropriations for current ex-
penses. Did ever great political party
stake its future on the attainment Of an
end so utterly insignificant as this? was
ever a national Legislature kept together
a hundred days for purpose so contemp'
tible?
