Some years ago President johnson sent
to the Republican Senate the name of s.
s. Cox. to be Minister to Vienna. Mr..
Cox was we'll qualified for the position in
every respect, but for the sole reason that
he was Democrat the nomination was not
confirmed The very party that favored
the rejection Of MIR. Cox on such an unten.
able ground, now throws up its hands 10
horror at the thought that the nate
should reject the nomination of McCrary
The Senate will not refuse to confirm him
because he is a Republican-De
mocrats have too much manliness for thai
but because his views concerning the
use of troops at the polls and his narrow
partisan construction of the laws relating
to the employment of deputy marshals anC
supervisors absolutely disqualify him for
seat on the bench. No objections could b.
or was urged against Mr.. Cox except tina
he was a Democrat. That heis Repub

that render Mr.. McCrary an Improper per

The trouble about the Dem ocrats is that
they they will not do what their political
opponents in Congress want them to. 1t
Is for that reason, and no other, that they
are persistently accused of laundering and
going generally wrong. But if they really
we're, as they certainly now are not, would
their opponents be likely to make such a
noise over ii? Would they not chuckle in
their sleeves instead, and 60 about shaking
hands in token of silent congratulation
Would they spend so much breath over a
Democratic back down, as they call it. if
anything of the sort was going on? No;
the Democrats are on the right track.
They are forcing the President by every
veto he writes to define and describe more
and more sharply the real issue which
chiefly divides parties at the present Juno
ture. The people can now see what they
could not see so clearly before, that the
Republican party is determined to con-
troll popular elections with bayonets, to
corrupt them with Supervisors and Depu-
ty Marshals, and to sap the virtue Of lur-
les by undermining them with oaths and
tests by which juries ought never TO be
bound.-BOSton Post.
