-Setrlbutiou Will Come .

The time will come when the Republi
can organs who are now so lavish in prais
ing the man Conkling, will be anxious TO
deny their utterances, The Republican
plan of heroizing libertines of the Conk-
ling ct al stripe, may be tolerated for a
time, but sooner or later will come the
Reaction, and with it such a revulsion in
public sentiment that it will not be safe to
openly defend, let alone martyrize such
licentious creatures as Conklng. If the
Republican party desires to shoulder
Conkling, and glorify him because of his
ability as a disturber OF domestic peace, if
this is the sort of reform the party of great
moral ideasseeks to entorce,it discloses the
true hypocrisy ofStalwartism and more rap
idly hsstens the end. The people are begin
ming to sit in judgment, however, and in
1880, will render the verdict that will
consgn to privacy, away from the public
gaze, the party that upholds fraud,

verdict, all good citizens will fervently say

True Rlue Democra CIV.

The Democratic state convention of
New York meets on Wednesday, Sept.
10th. 1t is to be hoped that, for the sake
of harmony, independent of other consid-
erations, Gov. Robinson will not be renom-
mated. The man who, as a protested
Democrat, elected to an honorable position
by Democratic votes, deliberately renoup-
ces those who did him honor, and aids aud
encourages republicanism by appointing to
high positions pronounced enemies of the
Democratic party, such man is unfit to
be the standard bearer Of the Democracy
of the great state Of News Y ork. Such is
the record of Robinson, and the plea that,
if nominated he would draw Republican
votes, is but confrmatory of what his
opponents charge, that he has sought to
break down, and by his acts has weaken
ed Democracy in New York city. Demo-
Gratis to the front, should be the rule this
year, and only such as are true blue,
should be given leadership. 1t is the milk
and water policy that more than anything
else weakens Democracy, aud it is time to
stand up boldly, The conservative
dodge is a failure,

Nationalism.

One of the favorite pleas of the National
party leaders is to preach the doctrine
that both the old parties are corrupt, and
only in the ranks of the said National
party can relief be found. Generally the
man who delivers this speech is a dis
carded member of one of the old parties,
who failed to obtain recognition in the
same, and hopes by boldly championing
Nationalism to be raised to prominence,
which, owing to unftness, he would other
wise not obtain. The National party
leaders are, as a class,a lot of disappointed
old political hacks, who have embraced
the new creed not from an honest convic-
ton, but because it held out the hope Of
official reward. There are many pure
men in the National Greenback party, but
invariably you fnd them among the rank
and file doing the voting, but not the talk
ing. When the rank and file Of the new
party begins to push forward and control
caucuses and conventions, the leaders who
are now such industrious workers IN the
cause" will be found occupying seats IN
the rear. When the opportunities Tor
official plumber are gone, the pure minded
patriots (?) who are such strong advocates
of the people,, will be found among the
"soreheads" of the party, That's what
drove them from the two old parties, aud
once they begin to be measured at their
real value, they will cease to be leaders
The National party was organized origin
ally to beat the Democratic party. 1t has
been maintained by Republican money
and its existence can accomplish only one
thing-the continuation of Republican
rule. When the mass Of the new party
those who wentinto the movement honestly
when they fully understand the true stu
alton, the National Greenback labor party
will cease to exist. The PomeroniaT
leaders know this, and it is because the,
know it, that they refuse all efforts a
fusion. There is not single reform aske'
by the people which the Democrat
party does not espouse, and sooner o
later, whether the played out politics

tons which he could not answer, questions |
which showed that the common people |
have an abundance of horse sense and
keep a sharp eye on the main facts of the
political and financial situation. He found
that these men would not be bamboozled
and could not be silenced. His sophistries
would not deceive them, and his rhetoric
did not blind their eyes. He, therefore,
quit the stump in disgust; and at Cincin
natl, in q fit of anger, hurled a whole
javelin full of Pythlan arrows back at his
interrogating enemies.

steered clear OF the whole subject, and
rushed back to the Southern outrage busi-
ness like dog to his vomit. He waxed
eloquent in depicting the awful lnlqultles
of the Democrat in Yazoo who shot bully
and murderer, without mentioning the
Republican 10 San Francisco who shot the
! Workingmen's candidate for Mayor. he
grew demonstrative, and gesticulated till
he was actually red in the face, as he de-
plored the solidity of the South, which IN
spite of the Cancellation policy of Hayes IS
as hostile to the Republicans as ever.
Really the only issue before the people
now is not fnance-that was John Sher-
mans fuueral-but whether the extinct
Confederacy is to be summoned back to
| life by the wicked Democrats who abso-
lutely refuse to allow the army to be used
at the polls to intimidate voters, and OBJ
iect to having Federal supervisors and
their deputies arrest Democratic voters
before they have voted and lock them up
| in cages like wild beasts And General
Garfield succeeded in firing the Republi-
can heart with this fuel. 1t is less than
three years since the same Garfield de-
plored the further use of the bloody shirt,
and insisted that the time had come to
consider the real business interests of the
nation. 1t is less than three years since
Charles Foster declared that to longer
torce the Southern question on the people
as political issue was neither patriotic
nor just. But Garfield is on the stump
now, and in a State where the Republican
chances are desperate; and Garfield finds
it inconvenient to remember Garfield 10
the present dilemma. But it would be
interesting to know exactly what ground
the Republicans propose to wage the
coming campaign upon, and what prin'
ciples they think will take best with the
people on the whole.

Republican principles are exceedingly
shifty and hard to find out. When John
Sherman opened the campaign in Maine
he expatiated at length on finance Tue
financial plank was the great one in the
Republican platform. Indeed, the fnan-
cial issue was the only one of vital impor-
lance before the country. And he reiter-
ated the same idea in other words inOhio.
At this announcement the people drew
deep breaths of relief, They had tired
and sickened of stories of southern outra-
ges. and been Mortified overmuch by the
spectre of the SOLID South" rising once
more at the beck aud call of body Of
Confederate brigadiers." Sherman chose
an issue which touched the pocket nerve
OF the American people, and came from
bis own. Besides, finance is the subject
with which, of all others, he is supposed to
be thoroughly familiar, and upon which be
might make the strongest appeal. He had
endless tables of statistics at his dismissal.
He could expatiate at length on what he
and Divine Providence had done in the
matter of resumption. He could bewilder
and overwhelm astonished audiences by
statements which they could not remem.
Der long enough to understand.
But: strange to say, he failed in this
held OF Ills own choosing. The people we're
not prepared Tor that sort of demonstra-
ton. They had been educated on south
ern outrages hot from the Republican out
rage mills, and had no taste nor digestion
for hard financial statistics. His platoons
of figures we're deployed in vain. He
marshaled his statistics in heavy columns,
but to no purpose. And to add to his
discontinue certain hard-headed Yankees
in the audieHce insisted on asking CUES.
