CONKLING AND "THAT MAN HAYES"

The Personal Wa,. Bet,ueen the Neav York
Senator and the Occupant Of the WEite
House.
Washington Special (Jan. 16) to Chicago
Times
The demonstration in the Senate yester-
day upon the part of Conkling has been q
subject of conversation to-day. 1t is clear
that Mr.. Conkling will be able to defeat the
New York appointments whenever he is
ready to SO do. The Democrats in the Sen
ate are no longer anxious to be upon any
sort of terms with the President, and SO
stand ready to help Mr.. Conkling. A we'll
known politician in speaking of the matter
to-day said: ''This is fair sample of the
average Democratic stupidity-to try and
build up Conkling, man who may be soon
opposed to them, and who, if made strong
may be able to injure them. To help Hayes
to success would only help to give promi-
nence to a man who could never be opposed
to them in any way that would hurt them
The administration theory for making the
changeis the same that was advanced when the
fight first came. The Senate committee on
commerce to-day did not consider the matter
referred to it by the Senate yesterday. On
account of the action of Secretary Sherman
yesterday there may lie several days of delay
so that it will be understood that Mr.. Conk-
ling is n0t to be hurried in the matter. It is
not suspected now that any decided action
will be taken until after the New York legis-
lature has decided upon the Senatorship
News was circulated here to-day to the effect
that George VIM. Curtis has gone to Albany
to conduct the administration fight against
Conkling's re- election.
What aggravates the personal charac-
ter of the fight between the admins
tration and Conkling is the fact that John
Sherman is trying through his secret SER
vice to make out case against Conk-
ing in charging that he was improperly in.
terested in the moiety cases. This fact was
known to Conkling yesterday in his speech
in the executive session, and the new part Of
his talk was where he himself made per.
sonal attack upon John Sherman. He took
occasion to speak of John Sherman's s riches
and asked how he had obtained them-hov
he made his money-by the legitimate or il
legitimate practice of his profession? AL
who knew his history knew that when he en-
tered public life he was poor, and he was
now very rich. Had he saved every penny
of his salary he would not have more than a
reasonable competency. How did he gel
his money? The public was not in
formed of the cases he had con
Quoted. The record of the courts die
not show them. In speaking of the Presi
dent, Conkling throughout his speech referred
to him as ''that man Hayes
The speech was not very bitter, bnt it was
adroit and appealed directly to his fellow
Senators. The Democrats evidently enjoyed
his onslaught on Sherman and did not objec
to his excoriation of the occupant of the
White House. The Republicans, save few
OF the seekers for executive favors, approx
lngly listened and manifested their delight
When the vote was taken the proposition te
send the communication to the comm1ttet
on commerce with permission to do with i
as they see proper was adopted by more thar
two to one.

JUST as the GLOBE announced, Bill Kings
paper apologized to Gen. Sibley on Sunday
morning. It speaks of the Thorough integ-
rity of Gen. sibley," the ''perfect upright
ness and purity of his nature" that "on the
unimpeachable testimony of Gen. Sibley''
the award was fair one, and that 'sAttorney
General Wilson, SO far from being absent
when his services were needed, was in attend
ance and fully presented the case for the
State.'' To-day it will be in order to apollo
gize to Gen. Hubbard. This retraction
business is getting to be little monotonous,
but it has to be done in order to swing around
in good shape preparatory to coming out
squarely in favor of the prison ring.

excepting four. Even tho confederate
brigadiers lacked courage to raise their
voices against it. But when it is considered
that they are all hoping and waiting to real
ize huge frauds from the treasury on their
own account, the requirement of courage is
a good deal diminished. The passage of this
gigantic money grab by an almost unani-
nous vote of the Senate is certainly an event
tending to strengthen the hope of every
money grab ring in the country that their
attempt to break into the public treasury
will be realized in good time. There prob
ably never has been time when Washing
ton was infested with greater number of
such ringsters or when Congress was sit
ting there more willing to accommodate
them.

HE proposition to print the governors
message in half dozen different languages
should not pass the legislature. The mes
sage has been printed in full in every news
paper, daily and weekly, in the State, and
has no doubt found its way into every fam
lily and been read by everybody interested
in the topics it discusses. To print limit
ed number in pamphlet form in English
would be we'll, but in any other language it
would be waste of money.

GEN. SHERMAN defends the massacre of the
Cheyennes at Camp Robinson as perfectly
justifable. This was to be expected. He
was quite as ready to defend the massacre
of the Piegans seegeral years ago under
the command of Sheridan. Nevertheless
the two occurrences will go down to history
side by side as acts of unwarranted and al
most unparalleled atrocity, which will for
ever remain as stain upon civilization,
more especially the boasted civilization of
the United States.

The all-absorbing question in Wisconsin
is, Who is the dark horse in the Senatorial
race? Washburn has gone to Madison, os-
tensibly to superintend the hanging of the
telescope he donated to the State, but we
have no doubt he will haunt the capitol
more or less. Sawyer and Rublee are both
there, and of course Gov. Smith cannot de-
sert his post of duty at such critical hour.
To-day may decide; otherwise the Republi-
cans will go into joint convention without a
candidate, in which case look out for fun.

The organs of the Insane Asylum not
only defend all the swindllng, but they are
congratulating the State that the Rev. Kerr
handled over one million dollars and is only
''irregular'' four or five thousand dollars.
Come to think about it, we believe the State
should be congratulated because he did not
steal larger amount.

THERE is great diversity of opinion as
to the amount of money that will be required
to pay the arrearages of pensions contem-
plated by the bill that passed the House last
week. The pension bureau estimates that
seven millions will more than suffice, but
Sherman insists that it will require thirty
eight millions. This last amount is so pre-
posterous as to bear upon it's face the evi-
dence of prejudice. Probably fair estimate
would place the amount at ten millions,

PENDLEToN doesn't approve of the attempt
of the Democrats of Ohio to force Thurman
to make the race for the governorship. and
declares ''the old man" ought to be permitted
to have his own way. Gentleman George

political prospects, for they are very likely to

FoR want of funds, it is feared that the in

this fellow has been guilty of practices that

bars, and it is to be regretted that he will
escape his just deserts so easily.

STATISTICS show that since the study of
German in the public schools of Chicago
became optional, the pupils in the German
classes have decreased about seventy five per
cent. 1t is very evident that in that city, at
any rate, the study Of foreign languages is
not considered as a legitimate part of the
school system. There is prospect of it's
abolition altogether.

THE Chicago papers, with one exception
and that the organ of the corrupt ring of
political hucksters who have so long con-
trolled the offices of Illinois, speak in the
most dlsparaging terms of the Republican
Legislative caucus on account of the nomina-
ton of Logan. They denominate it an in
famous surrender to demagogueism-a vic
tory won through the disreputable tactics of
the most disreputable school of politics in
the State.

The last Ohio slate is Garfield for gov

The team would be strong one, especially
IN its hind legs. The idea is to take Gar

sumes that Ohio will be carried by the Re-

THE FREEDMEN'S BANK.
Defense of the Commissioners.

Robert s. Purvis, one of the Freedmen s
bank commissioners, is out with an attempted
explanation of the charge that this commits
sion had plundered the negro depositors out Of
$4,000 in the way of salaries. That, it is
claimed, was allowed them by law. There is
no doubt Of that. The law allowed them GER
tain salaries, but it did not provide that they
should prolong the work interminably in order
to continue their salaries. The commissioners
have been at work over three years in settling
up the affairs of this swindling concern. MIR.
Purvis makes the following statement of the
actual condition of the books from july H.
1874, to Nov. 30 1878.

her afflicted spouse, although her baby was
not quite twenty four hours old and was

be accounted for only by the fact that she

Jordon 4d0ocate: Foss, Wells & Co., have
lately tried the experiment of using bran for
fuel, IN the furnace of their Touring mills,
with satisfactory results. The present mar
ket value of bran is $4 per ton, and they
lind it worth that amount for fuel, or rather
q ton OF bran will save $4 worth of wood.
The demand for bran is slight, and their
bins being full, they decided to try the prac-
tlcability of using it to make steam with.
The result of their Investigations goes to
show that the ''jacket" of kernel of wheat
will nearly furnish heat enough to create the
steam necessary to run the machinery used
in grinding it into -four.

Gov. HALL improves on acquaintance.
Whatever doubts may have existed before
bis election as to whether he or some one
else would be the real Governor is being
fast dispelled. He has shown by his ap
pointments that he himself fills the execu.
tive chair, and that he intends to be gov.
erned by the principles announced in his
Inaugural Of appointing the best men to
Office, without regard to his own personal
friendships or the influence of interested
friends. This has been strikingly mani.
tested in the appointment of George GRAY.
ESQ, of New Castle, to the Office of Attor.
ney General. The pressure from both sides
was immense, but while his acquaintance
with John Paynter was more intimate and
the latter was backed by the Salisbury in.

THE election troubles in Wilmington
have taken new turn. Evans who was
contesting the seat of Mr.. Carmichael in
the city council by reason of fraudulent
voting, charging that is votes had been cast
illegally for his opponent in one ward, has
been arrested and held to bail in the sum
of $4,000 by five OF the persons on
charge of libel. The object seems to be to
intimidate the further prosecution of the
alleged election frauds, instead of an
honest and united effort Of both parties to
root out corruption at the polls. There
seems to have been illegal voting in both
parties: the Republicans want to ferrit out
and punish, and the Democrats resist
because it might unseat some of the mem.
bers. The former say that there were 500
illegal votes and as they started they will
not be scared off if they can get hearing
in the courts. Both parties would make
in money and morals if they would break
up this nefarious practice.
