a Brave Soldier

On Friday last Major Gen Hooker, one
OF the bravest generals in the union ser
vice during the rebellion. died at Garden
City, Long Island He had been a con-
fiImed invalid for years and OF late had
been very feeble. His death will be uni
versaiiy mourHed. He served 10 the Next
can war as a lietepant colonel. winning
distinction for his bravery When the
war broke out 10 1861. he was among the
first to be entrusted with an important
position and soon gained great distinction
for gallantry. He rose rapidly in rank
and at one time was commander In chief
of the army of the Potomac. His Chan
cellorsville fight was the last in which be
figured in the Army of the Potomac as it's
commander. He was recklessly brave in
battle. was several times wounded, lost
leg at Lookout Mountain aud was known
among the rank and file as Fighting
Joe. Although no politician. General
Hooker was a staunch Democrat, and
never failed to SO express himself when In
a position to do SO. His death will be re.
GREETED by everyone. At the time of his
death, he was on the retired list, with the
rank of major general. distinction which
he had won by brave and meritorious con-
duct.

The Grant Boom.

The Grant boom is being pushed with
business like energy and if it continues
TO boom as now, there can be no ques-
ton ,as to who will be the Republican
nominee There are several aspirants for
the presidency among the Republicans,
however, who will doubtless devise means
to crush the boom if possible. before it has
gone too far. and among the number Is
John Sherman. He watches with jealous
eye the progress of Grant and that he and
Grant are not on tie best terms is unmis-
takably evidenced by the snubbing. the
latter has administered the secretary in
his indianapolis letter. 1t is all well
enough for Republicans to glorify Grant
that is as it should be- 1t is proper
that the great traveller should be made
the recipient of great receptions by those
who have grown rich on the spoils of gov
ornamental positions given them by Grant.
This is in the nature of things political.
But it is not proper. neither should it be
part of Democratic tactics to assist In the
laudation Of a man who, more than any
other person, is a bitter, unrelenting
enemy of Democracy. 1t is we'll enough
to claim that these ovRtions are non-partl-
san: that they are simply testimonials to
distinguished private citizen; that there is
nothing political in them, etc, but it won
stand Investigation. The plan from the
commencement has been to get up
what is called citizens commit
tee." and by Lthis means. Democrats
are drawn into the snare of assisting
to popularize Grant. and render him hom-
age not his due. Examination of names
of the leaders in all these ovations, shows
the same old ringsters who have fed at the
Republican cri3 for years-men who saw
their palmiest days during Grants admin
istration, and who long for return OF the
times of the past, that they may re COM
