WHY GENERAL M'DowELL WAS NOT

PLANTATION. .ass naR 10
The Washington Post has the fol-
lowing:
1t seems that General Mcdowell
Is not quite SO much Of patriot and
soldier as he had been cracked up to
be. Last fall he came on from San
Francisco to New Yord, with great
flourish of trumpets, to cast his vote
for Garfield and Arthur. The news
papers gushed to a degree about the
striking attention to political duty
displayed by General Mcdowell.
1t now appears that the General did
the voting, and the Government
paid the expense. He obtain. d an
order for himself and an aide to
come East. The mileage and al
lowances for the trip cost Uncle
Sam in the peighborhood of 81 200.
This was shortly before the time
that General Ord, since retired, paid
out OF his own pocket for the little
despatch sent to General Hancock.
When the President was discussing
the question OF retirements, Gen.
eral Sherman, it will be remember
ed, objected to the retirement OF
General Ord unless General Nc
Dowell, who is his senior in age, was
also retired. Hearing Of General
Sherman's position, General NC
Doweil wrote long letter to Mr.
Hayes, protesting against his retire
ment, and mentioning, Incidentally
the great sacrifice he had made il
coming East to vote for Genera
Garfield. 1t appears, also, that the
influence of the President-elect wal
exerted in General McDowell'i
behalf. A son Of General Gar6eld''
Is fortunately named Irwin Nc
Dowell Garfield. This peculiar
combination of fortutious circum
stances proved successful. Genera
Mcdowell was retained and Genera
Ord was retired. ''''

The Tribune estimate is as follows
"All the delegates to the Chicago conven-
ton have been elected except the two
from Idaho and they are pretty sure to
stand as they did in 1876, for Blaine. In
making this final estimate the TIT
bunc has been more generous to Grant
than to any other candidate. In all cases
of doubt about the standing Of delegates
he has been given the benefit of the
doubt. Thus the Alabama, Arkansas and
Texas delegations. which are not solid for
him, are given to him entire because his
friends claim that he will get them under
the unit rule. With generous treatment
of this kind in all cases. Grants total
reaches 3l5, or g. short of majority. 1t
