Our first choice is U. b. Grant. Reason
The most enthusiasm can be created for him
or rather 1t will create itself. With Grant
for q war cry in 80 this country will ring with
whoops and hurrahs. And as another reaso n
we know that the majority sentiment OF this
country Is for him. The name OF Grant Is 81

strength in the south that no other man pos

But If we can't have Grant-and there's
no doubt but that bis acceptance Is the only
thing wanted-let Us have Blaine, J i'm Blaine,
of the State OF Maine, smartest senator Out
of the rain. While the country honors
Grant; expects great things OF him, and
knows that IL will not be disappointet, II also

That hits Us exactly. We recognize the
power of the press. some years ago, while
the,writer was manipulating a Gordon jobber

at the. time the press was attending to BUSH

has remembered It since, and governed him

room and try 1t. And then there is another
way In which the press has power. We have
heard of men being ele ted to Office by abuse
on the part OF a newspaper. We hardly think
the editors of Kansas control all the delegates
as was. instsnced In the failure of the nonnin-
alton of Col. John A. Martin, editor of the
AIchison Champion, for governor not long
ago. Yet we should not be discouraged. But
to the question. Col. Anthony has requested
US to answer the above questions In our own
way, which We think was very liberal on his
part.
Our first choice for President Is Col. DR. An
thony, editor of The LEAvENwoRTH TIMES,
Our reasons are list, as We believe an editor

is high time IL WAS occupied; and our own
business engagements are such that We can

they could perhaps pull him through.

what they want, though We think that the
chances for such Ter ult are better than In

The decrease Of the national debt during
the month of November was s199, so,
against SlO,352, 907 during October. The
principal items of the debt are about the
same that they were a month ago. The
principal changes are in the matured debt,
which has fallen from S23,O79. 035 to $751;
2i7, 595, and in the refunding certificates,
which have been reduced, by conversion
into per cent. bonds, from g. S99, 400 to
S2,7ll,750. The amount of fractional cur
rency redeemed during the month was
S6Gl2, or a little more than four-tenths Of
l per cent. of the amount reported out
standing at the end Of October. The
greenback deposits in the treasury during
November fell from SD 405, 900 to Sl4.l00,.
