Mr.. IInNcs's Chnncc.

II has seldom happened to any man to
advance more rapidly in the estimation OF
his own party than Mir. HAYES has advanced
in the estimation Of the Republican party
within few months past. This is owing to
the irmncss and courag" exhibited In his
vetoes. The view that we have taken OF his
recent veto messages Is that they are err
roneous in principle and insolent in tone.
Nevertheless we are not blind to the fact
that they evince a bold determination which
unites and cheers the Republicans.
There is an eternal truth tersely expressed
by BULwER in these words Mankind re-
spect the strong"
Mr.. HAYEs's vetoes evnce q degree Of
strength in him equally surprising to his
opponents and his friends. Referring TO
them, CHARLES FOSTER, the Republican
nominee for Governor OF Ohio. said to q
Times reporter: "rhe stand taken by the
President in his vetoes has united the party.
Weare no more conservatives and stalwarts.
We are all stalwarts now"
The courage OF the Executive appears in
colors all the more striking and brilliant
because it is set on against the background
OF coyardice on the part Of the Democratic
Congressman who started cut on IA contest
they lacked heart to wage to u glorious end.
Some Republicans predicted when HAYES
FIRST entered. by bargain and fraud. into his
high Office, that he would ultimately cheat
the callow and unprincipled Confederates
with whom he struck hands. They said I:
You will see. He starts out on policy OF
Cancellation and brotherhood, which he will
pursue just far enough to show how utterly
impractical it is. and after that he will turn
around and become the most radical Of the
radicals, and again be q candidate"
We're not these men right?
1t may be that HAYES, instead of being the
good-natured Ounce he has been generally
taken for, is really long cunning,
deep plotter.
1t looks now as IL the Presidential cam
palgn would be contested on the old war
issues--or rather the issues raised by the
vetoes. Mr.. HAYES. the author Of these We
toes, would be their natural and logical rep
resentative as candidate in the field II IS
true he has declared he will not be a candi-
date for reelection. That declaration, how
ever, will not interfere with his running
again. inasmuch as although he has occu-
pied the Office he has never been elected yet.
We shall not be surprised 10 see the name
OF RUTHERFoRD b. HAYES much more prom
inent than would be most pleasing to his
rivals as candidate for the Republican
nomination.
Well. perhaps any man who has not been
elected once may be preferable to a man
who has already been elected twice.

To THE EDITOR OF The SUN-Sir: The
discussions over the Army bill in Congress
have boen too scattering. About two or three
paragraphs, | think, will do. as follows:
Frst-Striko ont OF the Constitution tho
words, The military shall be subordinate to
the civil power" and the party In power may at
any time make military or other despotic
government out Of the present republican form.
Secondly-With II law allowing the army to be
used to keep the peace at the polls, p" the above
quotation from tho Constitution is nugatory
and the same result can be accomplished The
military Is still subject to the " civil power" yet
the party in power has control of the army. and
If allowed TO use II in controlling elections. is
not likely Ia usn it only to keep the other party
power Tlis the Republican party has done
and II Will continue TO do II tho law as now be
allowed Ia stand.
Third-lt docs not require a large army nj
this time to accomplish this result As the two
great parties arc now divided two or three Of
the larger States, whose votes are pretty evenly
balanced. will give the electoral vote eithor way
and the use Of the army in favor OF one party in
two or three large cities in each will carry those
States for the party in whose favor it shall DO
used.
The sum OF the matter ia this and nothing
more Shall the Republican party now in a MI
norty Of over quarter Of million by popular
vote, and thirty to fity by electoral vote be- al
lowed 10 use the army majority parties don't
need military help again in 1880 ns in 1876 to
keep itself in power | don't sec anything
having the power to prevent it, back down.

Mr.. CHARLES FOSTER, Republican noml-
nee for Governor Of Ohio when interviewed
by the reporters from some OF our esteemed
contemporaries, during his recent visit to
this city, took evident pains to make the inn
preston that his nomination was not
triumph Of tho HAYES aud SHERMAN wing
OF the party on the one hand, or of the
GRANT wing on the other
or course Mr. FOSTER requires the sup
port of both sections Of the party to elect
him, and docs not want to offend either But
his talk Is rs fatal to the position he as
sumcs as COVE BENEFITS confessions were
to him. After much parleying and by-play
with Times reporter he says: "OI course
there was some idea among the delegates
about the effect the nomination might have
on the Presidential natter" and ;his had
been preceded by the remark: Il haze no
DOUBT NJ. SHERMAN preferred that 1 should be
nominated"
II Mr. FOSTER is no more successful as o
candidate than he has been in his attempts
to show that HAYES and SHERMAN did not
win rs against GRANT, in his nomination,
then he will never he elected: that is plain.

And suppose that Mt the same time Con-
gress should pass Legislative, Executive,

abolishing the present unwarrantable pow
ers of supervisors and deputy marshals ut

And suppose that, having sent these two
bills to Mr.. HAYES. Congress should in
stantly adjourn, leaving the bills IN his
hands 10 be approved or vetoed as he may
think best.
II in such a case he should veto the bills.
would it be Congress that would refuse sup

that would deny appropriations for the

ments No. it would be Mr.. HAYES. The act
would be his alone, and responsibility would
rest exclusively upon him.

1t is to be regretted that the contemplated
Mexican Exposition should have been harassed

afraid it would prove u stepping stone on which
It's promoters would mount to high offices, and
that it should finally have come TO a halt for
lack Of funds. But this reduction in tho num-

the mania for them has become preposterous
1t is creditable 10 the Mexican Government that
when it found the building funds lacking, ii
stopped work. instead Of going ahead upon the
fully disproved theory that Worlds Fairs can
be made self-pnying When she finds herself
