yesterday and frost last evening made
the snow as smooth as glass;, the

did not care to collide with them, they

The rapidity with which the bison is
disappearing from the Western plains
may be inferred from the following
statistics collected at Fort Macleod, near
the head waters of the South Saskatche-
wan, III British North America, and
Fort. Walsh, fusther east, both places
being important centess for the collec-
tion of buffalo robes. The money value
of each robe to the Indian hunter may
be roughly estimated at 81. In 1877,
some $4,000 robes were gathered at
Fort Macleod, and larger number at
Fort Walsh. In 1873 the number was
1897 at the former, and l6, S97 at the
latter place; while this year only 5,7O4
have come into Fort Macleod and

MIR. Thurman of Ohio.

Mr.. THURMAN secs his only chance rs an
aspirant for the Presidency in carrying his
own state. Defeat means the end of his
public career, for it would carry with it tho
loss Of his scat in the Senate. Therefore he
il playing his last stake. About the time Of
the election he will be siXty-six years old,
and, though Of robust constitution, the
strain Of public life and its associations
have told upon him. In the campaign Of
last year he suffered seriously in health.
Once enlisted, he does not spare himself
whatever may be the risks which zeal and
devotion have to run, i'm open air contro-
vcrsy In the summer and fall heats.
1t was natural to expect that he would be
relieved from any unreasonable task this
year; and therefore when his name was
suggested months ago rs II candidate for
Governor, he pcremptorily and properly
forbade its use. But circumstances have
changed since then. Undoubtedly he is the
strongest man in the Democratic party OF
Ohio. from acknowledged ability, purity Of
character, and long service both in the
ranks and as leader. lie led almost for
lorn hope when twice elected to the Senate.
Two interests are now demanding that he
shall stand for Governor, but with no intcn-
tion of accepting the Office in case of election.
The first pressure comes from real friends
who believe he can reconcile all divisions
and inspire faith Of success which no
other candidate could do. The second class,
Of pretended friends, call for him to lead the
party for the sake of the party, with a sin
lister expectation that his strength may not
hold out. and that defeat would remove from
the field n chief whom they are forced to
respect and to obey, but whom they have
sought in vain TO control for their own uses.
II the managers could have their way
THURMAN and Ewing would be the Demo-
cratic ticket, with tacit understanding
that If everything should turn out accord
ing 10 the programme. EWING would go to
the Senate in 1881. where his father was con-
spcuous thirty years ago. This plan rests
upon the belief that the Convention of
Greenbackers which will meet on the 4th Of
June. at the same time with the Democrats
will adopt this ticket mainly because Ew-
ING name is upon it, who is nearer to their
financial idea than THURMAN is.
But plans made in the Office Of the Ser
geant-at-Arms of the House Of Representa-
tives will have to run the gauntlet Of sharp
Greenbackers at Columbus who, If they do
sell out at all, mean TO have the highest
price the Democrats can afford to pay. es-

There are few events on which we can so
warmly congratulate our readers rs ON the
nomination Of CHARLES FOSTER for Gov
ernor Of Ohio
why?
Because it bctokcns the probable defeat Of
Gen. GRANT as a candidate for the Republic
can nomination for President. We deem this
the most important Of all things in the inmedi-
ate future Of American politics. The Rcpub-
lican party have been In continuous power
long enough, and we deem it OF much
consequence that Democrat should be
elected next time; but we deem it Of far
greater consequence that one of the two
great political parties into which the coun-
try is divided should not blot out the patri-
otto traditions Of the past by supporting a
military chieftain for n third term.
We say, therefore, every patriotic heart
In the United States should rejoice in the
nomination OF CHARLES FOSTER. The Re-
publican State Convention in Ohio furnished
the first recent occasion for putting Grant
ism to real test of relative strength and
in this test GRANT was found wanting.
Mr.. TAFT was Acknowledgement Of the
United States under Gen. GRANT He was
the candidate for the nomination Of that
school in politics who want to see GRANT
run for third term. They felt sure of his
nomination. They boosted aloud in advance
and had no msglvings as to the result
But man proposes and COP disposes. We
are certain the GRANT men proposed
to make TAFT the candidate; and II there is
any such thing as a special Providence in
the government Of this country, as our IA
theirs devoutly believed, we cannot doubt
that COP disposed the hearts Of a majority
OF the Convention, when the crisis came, to
vote for another man.
Not that we have anything In particular
against TAFT except that he is for GRANT
what more can heart that treasures the
traditions Of the patriots of old require to
condemn any man?
So Grantism has failed the first time It
has been brought to an actual test! Thus,
~. S.s'Ji.t..i ,T'i aeon tinaa 4tAfs Ia, SVHHs
are stronger than the dead. SHERMAN
proved stronger in Ohio, and nominated
FOSTER. He bids fair to prove stronger in
the National Republican Convention, where
we expect to see him nominate himself.
Well, it is glory enough for one day to
defeat the third term movement. We are
content.
