COnkIlng'S SOuru ees Toward
Sherm an.

Washington special to the Cincin-
natl Commercial: Secretary Sher-
mans friends are greatly pleased with
the appearance Of things OF the pres
emit time. and they regard his nominn
ton as very nearly certain. There is
one difficulty that they would be glad
to have out of the way, however.
They feel that the Republican candi.
date must carry New York, and they
appreciate the strength of Roscoe
Conkling. If Sherman should be
nominated he could carry New York
beyond question il Conkling would
give his active support. But the fact
that Conkling is q bitter enemy Of
Sherman's, gives some Of the htter's
friends uneasiness, for the more sen
sible Of them do not pretend to un-
derrate ConRling's strength. 1t is
noted that Conkling did not give
Hayes warm support, and Hayes lost
the State. 1t is thought that had
Conkling gone into the campaign
with a vim, as he did last year, he
could have saved it. The quarrel be-
tween these two distinguished Re-
publicans is regretted by those having
che interest of the party most ut
heart, Sherman's friends say that
OF his part there is no bitterness or
even ill-will felt toward Conk ling,
and has not been since the termina
ton of the'C Custom house contest, and
that Sherman really did not wish to
force an issue with Copkling,. and.
tried every reasonable means TO avoid

Oeratic politician, VINO recently held a
long einversation with Hon. Saml. j.
Tilden, represents that gentleman as
expressing some doubts as to whether
he will be able to secure the Dem
ocratic nomination for the next pres
ideney, because of detection towards
him South and West. Pressed to
name a candidate aside from himself
who would answer all the require.
ments Mr.. Tilden is said TO have re
marked that Justice Pield, of Cal
i~fornia, appeared to him to be the
strongest and most available man
that Judge Fields re latives are
very wealthy, aud would be willing to
spend a million or two if he were
nominated; hat the Pacific States
would undoubtedly be solid in his ia.
vor, and that he would stand a better
chance in New York and the other
doubtful Northern States than qAy
of the other.candidates whose merits
have been discussed.

and McCreary's majority over Justice
John NJ. Harlan, who was q very
popular candidate, was $4,000. The
Republicans made a very, vigorous
canvass from the outset of the cam.

The Future.

We fear the next thing the people Of
Tennessee will hear Of viii be that the
Legislature have recognized the bond
ed eebt and will levy a tax to pay it Of
in full. The idea that Tennessee can
not pay the debt, If forced, Is erroneous.
Tennessee Is worth one thousand times
the amount Of the debt and all that IL
necessary Ia for the Legislature to levy
a tax-and such men az we elect gener-
ally a be bought up with few dol
lars and a Jug Of whiskey. We believe
and have believed all the time that the
debt could be separated II we could on
ly get an honest man In the Governors
chair. But we have almost lost hopes
OF that, because Democracy CONTROL the
State and they would elect a peniten-
tlary convict If he was nominated by a
party convention. Gov. Marks told Iii
before HE election that the debt could
be separated, but as soon as he was
elected he turned traitor. So It has
been and 10 1t always will be In any
State where n political party has ev-
cry thing their own way for any length
Of time.
We did believe at the time that the
acceptance Of the Jo-4 proposition was
the best that could eve DO done, and
for that reaSOn we supported the cause.
But it has failed. and az we own nc
bonds or scarcely anything clse we
will net lose any sleep over the
matter let come what will.
