DISTRICTS CANNOT BE GAGGED.

There is not the least dOubt-fn fact, there
has at no time been any dOubt-that the
friends of Mr. Conkhng will control the Con-
yention tomorrow at Utica. There is no doubt
either, we suppose, that they have all along
been fully resolved to exert their utmost power
to secure the denomination Of General Grant.
To this no exception can be taken. 1t is
their right. We think them gravely mistaken
in policy but there are more members OF the
Convention of their way of thinking than of
ours; and where two ride horse, one must
ride behind.
But it is not their right TO destroy the rep
resentative character of the district delega-
TONS and they cannot attempt it without in
yitlng disaster. Several of the Congressional
Districts are for Blaine, and will choose
Blaine delegates to Chicago. The Utica
Convention cannot compel those delegates
to vote against the known will of their
constituents. 1t has no such power. 1t is
contrary to the whole theory of representative
conventions to grant such a power. The call
for the Chicago Convention cannot be con-
strued to permit the exercise of such power.
The last National Convention expressly re-
fused to tolerate such power. No wise
politicians, at all familiar with the popular
temper of this State, will dream that
an attempt to use such power
now can fail to be perilOus. The
Utica assemblage may fairly instruct the State
delegates to vote as its majority may decide.
1t cannot forbid the district delegates to vote
as the district majorities have decided, for its
duty is to give voice to the wishes of the peo-
ple-not to stife that voice. The way to ruin
their candidate at the polls is to show that
they tried to prevent over One-tliird the voters
of their party from being heard in the Con-
yention that selected him.

WOCLD GENERAL GRANT BE 4 .STRONG
CANDIDATE7

The Republicans of New-York and espec-
tally their representatives at Utica Tomorrow,
should seriously ponder the question whether,
on the whole, General Grant would prove n
strong candidate if regularly. or even unani-
mousy, nominated at Chicago.
If any other man shall be selected as the
Republican standard bearer. he will have the
full advantage of the two great issues on
which the republicans are aggressive, and the
Democrats are on the defensive. One of these
is the question of nationality, with all the
issues that cluster around that central Idea,-
the maintenance of the Union, the overthrow
of the dogma of State Rights, the enforc-
ing of the Constitutional Amendments, the
securing to every man suffrage, and to every
citizen personal proteCtiOn,-with all the phases
and forms which this question, in its original
essence and in fifteen years Of discussion and
development, has assumed. The second OF
these great issues on which Republicans now
hold an aggressive attitude is the financial
question, involving the resumption of specie
payments. the UNFOLDING of the public credit,
the securing of an honest currency, the restora-
ton of industrial prosperity in all the chan
nels of enterprise, and the thousand and one
advantages which have been realized within
the past year by steady adherence to the
policy of the Republican party.
Ii cannot be doubted by any observer OF
the currents of public thought or by any COM

apce of the Government. 1t does not appear
lg what process the ex-President would DE
able. if elected again, to restrain and repress
that rebellious spirit which gained head and
force during his former administrations. 1t
is the opinion of sagacious Republicans ana
of majority of the party, we believe
throughout the country, that the Govern
ment in the hands Of some other Republican
would be stronger in every essential respect
and better able to repress the dangerous ten
denotes IN question, than it would be IN charge
OF. General Grant.
1t is said, too, that there is danger of n
fraudulent or violent defeat Of the viii OF the
people at the next election that the Demo
Gratis mean to count out the Republican can
didate at any hazard, and that General Grant
is the one man by whom such revolutionary
course would DO and could be resisted.
Ii is difficult to see what power a
candidate would have under any cir
cnmstances to resist the fraudulent count
ing of votes or to inaucurate himself.
He, of all men, would be dstruSted.
His motives, by fair-minded men OF both par
ties, would inevitably be suspected Strong
measures which other dlsinterestcd citizens
might take with overwhelming popular support,
would be rejected at once if taken by can
didate having himself an Overpowerng inter
est in the result. 1t is fair to say that the
independent position of General Grant, IA an
ex-Presdcnt and former victorious General OF
the Union armies, is safeguard for the
Republic which would be lost If he should
become candidate. As long as he has no per
sona interest in the result Of an election, there
are veterans by the hundred thousand who would
gather mt his call 20 resist any Revolutionary
defeat of the popular will, and to inaugurate
the candidate who had been honestly elected.
But let him become that candidate, and any
other eminent citizen in the Republic would
have more power for resistance to such ii rev
olutiun than he. The strength which he has
comes in great measure from his Independent
position, from the fact that he has already
enjoyed all the honors which the Republic has
to give, and could not be suspected of a selfish
ambition in any attempt to preserve the lIber-
ties of the Republic. 70 make the same at
tempt, being himself candidate, and having
therefore more powerful personal interest in
the result than any one else. would be to en-
timely sacrifice that strength.

1t is plain that the friends of General Grant,
or to speak more precisely the supporters OF
the Republican leaders whO favor the third
term project, are going to have a working major
ity at Utica tomorrow, and will thus be able to
shape the action Of the Convention. What the
policy OF the leaders Will bel not disclosed. Prob
ably they themselves have not decided upon
the course to be pursued, but, like shrewd
politicians, intend to teso the temper of the
opposition and the fidelity of their own fol-
lowers before laying out programme. The
wisest plan is that which will produce the
greatest degree of harmony and good feel
ing in the party. The talk of the delegates
now at Utica, and the interesting rumOrs and
probabilities of the hour, are fully described
in our special dispatches.

Thurlow Weed pleads the unbroken usage
of two terms only, as an argument against
the denomination of General Grant not to be
set aside unless his candidacy should
be demanded by a spontaneous popular move
ment-a phenomenon which, it is almost need
less to observe, does not exist at present and
is not likely to arise before the meeting OF
the Chicago Convention. The views OF tins
sacacious veteran politician might be profit
ably stadied by the delegates who viii assem-
BILE at Utica tomorrow.
Railway consultations seem 10 be greatly
stimulated by the general Improvement in the
transportation business. The latest has just
been effected in the Northwest, and will re-
suit in the speedy opening Of q continuous
line from Omaha to st. Paul, with early cx-
tensions TO Bayfield,, on l. Ike Superior, and
to some point not named upon Lake Michigan.
The purpose of this combination is evidently
to open a new freight route from the grain
fields OF the West to the East by way of the
great lakes. 1t is significant, because it shows
a tendency to have recourse to water-carriage
to solve the problem of marketing the rapidly
increasing grain surplus of the trans Mssis-
sippi region.
Now that we are safely through the scandals
and perls of an irredeemable paper-m uney
epoch, il is interesting to recall the experience of
England during twenty-four years of suspen-
sion which began in 1897. This is admirably
done in the lecture by Professor Adams, of
Michigan University, which we print on
another page. When the story of the suffer-
ing and shame that inflated values and Il
fictitious currency brought upon Great Britain
Is carefully read. the reader will feel
thankful that we got out of our scrape as
easily as we did but will no doubt wonder at
the same time that with such lesson before
us we ever fell into a system Of finance so
plainly leading to disgrace and disaster.
A Characteristic incident of Southern life is
rec0unted in prief dispatch from Norfolk
John D0zicr of Deep Creek, entertained the
extraordinary idea that laws were made TO be
enforced, and proceeded TO make his neigh
b0rs aware of the existence of the statute on
the subject of fences. The neiGhbors deter
mined to convince him Of his error, so they
surrounded his house last Thursday night and
opened brisk fuSilade with variety OF fire
arms upon the doors and windows Dozier
found safety in flight, but a coored man VINO
was with him in the house was shot and
killed. The dispatch ends with the I'M
necessary statement that no arrests have been
made OF course there were no arrests. These
little ebullitOns Of cbivalTic feeling never have
such an unpleasant termination.

The Women's National Christian Temperance
Union has taken rooms for its central Office in the
Bible House IN this city. and will hold an opening
reception there next Thursday evening. The Union
is now established on broad foundation, having
twenty-three auxiliary societies in many States
and Issuing handsome journal called Our Union
Its objects are to educate the young, reform tho
drinking class, create public sentiment IN favor of
temperance and advocate legislation to abate the
prog-shop evil. Its work is mainly done through
the agency of the Christian churches. Founded
upon tho idea that all thorough reform must have
religious bass, and employing the potent influence
OF devoted women, it cOmmends itself strongly to
all friends Of the temperance cause the society
will require material aid in the larger field it has
Just entered, and will undoubtedly receive the lib

long ago they were resorted to as protests
against the reduction of wages; now they are
demands for Increased pay. st. Louis is the
greatest sufferer at present. Employers should
understand that some advance on the hard
