The presidential campaign will now
soon open, and as it approaches we
can begin to get little insight into
the plans and prospects Of some Of
the aspiranis AID their supporters.
The Republicans of Pennsylvania
have had their State convention and
elected thei: delegates to the nationa.
convention, which is 10 nominate the
Republican candidate for President.
If the action of this State convention
is to br taken as an indication of what
is to follow in other States, we would
say that Grants pros )ects are grow
ing very bright, while those Of Blaine
and Sherman are waning-in fact, the
latter seems to have had not single
supporter in the convention. The
Camerons bad things their own way,
anu although struggle Vas made for
Blaine. the delegates go instructed to
vote solidly for giant.
1t remains to be seen whether Conk.
ling will be az successful in controlling
the party in New York as the Cam
erons have been in Pennsylvania. If
be is. then Grants nomination ia nc.
sured. This may or may no, have the
effect Of causing some detection from
their ranks. 1t certainly will if Re-
pnblcans are sincere in their professed
objections to third term aud if pro-
perly managed may prove of great
advantage TO the Democracy.
The Democrats will at least have
the. advantage Of having the en-, nv
uncover his position in advance, which
in political, as well as military slra,e-
gy, is fact not to be icspised ~
opening aud conducting a contest.
Let the managers OF our party watch
closely and take advantage of every
exposed and salient point in the rankS
OF the enemy. and the victory is ours.
even with the great and and wi,ty
general to lead bin. There are Re-
publicans so much opposed to Gr.ar
that the Democrats can certainly find
a man whom they will support inprei-
erenee to him. let them try to find
that man ard place him in the field.

The Same Old Thing.

The same old party, inspired by the
same wrong principles, controlled by the
same mistaken politicians, pursuing the
same perilOns policy, is seeking the APP
probafien Ofsthe country. They have
have not selected Hancock for
their standard bearer because they
have changed. but because he happened
to be man Wh0.had no opportunity to
show forth i'm his0wn conduct the OBJ
HoxiOusness of modern Democracy. 1t
must be presumed that they knew he
will be a willing. perhaps even aZealous,
supporter of the political dOgmas which
Bayard and Tilden, Thurman and Hend-
ricks, Ben Hill and Boss Kelly. Justice
Field and Dan Voorhees, have champion
ed for SO many years. They imagine the
American people will take it for granted
that he is adifferent kind of a Democrat.
In this they delude themselves. He is
one of them or he would not have their
confidence. ItdOess not require the ability
to see far intO<a milestone to make that
out. If the Democratic party imagines
that the objection to giving it power is
chiefly an objection to individuals in it,
they have fallen into error. Some of its
members are more obnoxious personally
than others, no doubt; but the grand OBJ
lection is to the character of the party
asa party. That is something which
cannot be glozed over by the pfesenta-
ton of such candidate as Greeley OF
Hancock. The record of the Democratic
party cannot be 80 easily hidden or dis
guised.-BOstOn Advertiser.

From the ag'ewood, N, J., Standard
The Democratic Platform Translated
= - Into Plain English 81 -

= 1st-We stick yet to what principles
we have left to US, excepting that we
take back and bury out of sight all that
we have said heretofore against military
without civil qualifications or expert
ence. Such leaders we now believe in.
2nd.-We believe also in variegated
spotted tariff, including free whisky,
without which the Democrat party would
cease to be. That is what we mean by
a tariff for revenue. f5tFs -
3rd.-We heartily recommend three
kinds of barrels:
1st.-Barrels of money constantly on
tap at the north;
-Double-barrelled shotguns for
Democratic cOlOred game at the South.
3rd-- Barrels of whisky, tapped at
each end, for the use of Democratic
voters at the southwest and west.
We recommend the union of the three
in all doubtful states, and for the CONVEX
sion of minOrities into working ma
jOrity. All voters should be provided
+ with double ballots, and all canvassing
Democratic inspectors and returning Of
flcers with that species of liquor enter
tainment which will enable them to see
and count double.
4th.-We are in favor of hard or soft
money, according to the latitude or Ion
gitude of the polling places-and there
in abundance.
5th.-We are heartily in favor of DEM
ocratic majOrities however obtained. As
Jefferson so well said. or ought to if
he didn't-"Eternal majOrities are good
for the Democratic ideas of Freedom"
6th.-Our old and tried servant, Til
den. who worked so hard and so unscru-
pulously, we discharge with this rare
certificate of character: He is first
rate cipher-er and will do more dirty
work without firing than any other SER
want we haye ever had, not excepting
Buchanan, Pierce or Van Buren,. To
pawnbrokers, broken down insurance
and railroad companies, we heartily
commend him. He wants high pay, but
he is worth it.
