Tile last Democratic State officer of Iowa
was q Mr. Ea6ls, who was elected Sslperin-

By the action OF the Republican Con-
vention of Georgia serious break is made
in the programme of the G rant ''boom-
sters'' to get the united delegations from
the Southern states to the Chicago Conven-
tion. Grant will get little aid from Georgia,
the Blaine men claiming fifteen of the
twenty-five delegates, while Sherman has
a number. Ofcourse these twenty-five
delegates represent no possibility of elec-
toral votes andAit is tor that very reason
they ought TO be s'set Off, In the conven-
ton against like non-rcprescntative dele
gates from Kentucky end Missouri, which
are Instructed for Grant. Another break
or two in the Southern liue will make It
clear that GRAFT cannot ro>sibly be nomi-
mated, and his fiamc will be withdrawn.

In talk with visitor recently, Presi-
dent Hayes said 81 believe the last half
of my administration has been as free from
perplexities and troubles. as ever fall to
the lot of an Incumbent of the presilen-
tial chair. At the outset there were mis-
understandings aud mlsaIprellensio,'s !;
but I think In general g.sni degree ot
harmony now exists, and that the admin
istratiou OF affairs Is on the whole such as
meet approval. i have been often accused
Of taking optimistic views, but think
throughout the country IN general there
has been a revival OF just such views the
past twelve snonfhs. aud I an, not sure
but that everybody IS better of for having
