y Blaine is for Blaine, and he hopes for aid
from Cameron on the home stretch. Cameron is for
Cameron. and Grant is Cameron in this fight. He
has second choice because he will expect his first
choice to succeed, and he understands that leader
with n second choice hasn't a very decided first
choice. If Grant shall be retired from the contest
of which there is no evidence as yet, Cameron and
Blaine would be likely to meet early and often to
talk matters ever and Camerons first choice for Chi
cago would probably be Blaine but while Grant
and Blaine continue rival candidates, there will
be no heir apparent in the Grant household-Phiia.

MINOR TOPICS.

JUDGES NIBLAcK and Scott ofthe Indiana supreme
court filed their dissenting opinions in the
recent declsion relating to the constitutional
amendments Judge Niblacks opinion is an able
paper, and may be specially noticed for the careful
citation and analysi of authorities the distinctness
with which the great principles of law involved in
the case are presented, aud the manliness and
force with which he upholds popular rights The
two judges are oil the more 10 be respected and
applauded for their utterances on this question
because they are ultra democrats and every influ-
ence has been used to dissuade them from such an
eloquent and logical presentation of the case as
they have given TO the people ofthe state In con-
nection with this matter the Indianapolis Journal
OF the 9th says that on the evening Of the 5th OF
April day OF election, the secretary of the demo
cratic state central committee told the correspondent
OF the Cincinnati Enquirer that tho amendments
were to be declared not adopted, no matter what
the vote might be- that test case would be made
mp the parties to the suit had already been se-
ected ana that three of the judges had been seen
and questioned, and that they declared their inten-
tion to render decision annuling the election.
This conversation took place in Pullman car en-
route to the Iowa state democratic convention and
the narrator says that It be used as an nrgu.
meut in favor of Hendricks because 1t retained III
diana among the October, and, therefore, pivotal
states"
The London Times recently congratulated our
people on the marvellous material prosperity which
has been ours during the past four years and the
Philadelphia Record takes occasion to say that for
this the political doctors claim the credit This Is
true but 1t don't cover the ground While our
prosperity has been rs phenomenal as II has been
deserved, we have reason 10 thank not only the
frugalty and industry OF the people, but also at
least one of our political doctors Suppose the
democratic party had been in power and the inia-
ton and debt.increasing schemes which two demo.
cratic congresses have endeavorcd to promote had
become facts OF what benefit would our material
prosperity be7 The teeming earth might have rem.
dered bounteous returns to labor yet we would sil
be poor and debt-harnssed. 1t is tho financial skin
of republican secretary OF the treasury, the wise
economy Of arepublcan president, aud tho rigid
rejection by him oftreasury robbing schemes which
have supplemented this united effort OF a great
people to regain prosperity thus making America
the just subject for congratulahon by other ma.
tions We are paying our debts restoring our
commercial life, laying by money for bad season.
and making our financial condition the wonder
and admiration of the world, and we are doing
this because the republican party guides in an ex.
ecutive capacity the machinery OF the national
government K. B. Hayes and John Sherman are
financial doctors Of whom we have reason to be
proud.

THIc OUTLOOK,

The democrats do not propose to lose
anything for the want of having claimed
it. With display of brass mounted conf
dence they now affect to think and they
even announce that General HANCOCK is to
carry the states Of Pennsylvania and New
York in the coming election. A recent con-
versation with several intelligent gentle
men, who have within week visited differ
ent sections of Pennsylvania, mingled with
the people and discussed the political stu-
alton, satisfies us that the democrats are no
more certain of carrying Pennsylvania this
fall than they were in 1s72-'76. The re-
publican party in that state is strongly
united in harmony Of feeling and action,

ton with the case, without the expectation
ofa fee and in fact bearing the expense of
the printing connected Herewith himself,
he espoused the case, made the argument
and secured the release of these citizens,
whose crimes he detested and whose meas
ure Of punishment he thought inadequate
to meet the enormity of the offenses COM
mittod, aud obtained q decision from the
supreme court of the United States which
established the supremacy of the civil code.
This was brave act on the part Of Cen
eral GARFIELD, for there was no promise or
expectation of reward, and the act was
done in the face of the known displeasure
Of his constituents at his appearing for trail
tors at the hazard of his future political
fortunes in his district. Indeed, so strong
was the feeling against him on this account
that it was only through the fullest expla-
nation of the justice of the case and the
rectitude of his motive that he was returned.
The difference between GARFIELD and HAM
COCK on this question is that while the for
mer sustained the principle of the suprem-
acy of the civil over the military author
ity under the promptings ofa sense of right,
exercised in the most unsefsh manner, the
latter found it more in accord with the sem
timent Of the people where he held military
rule and much easier TO keep in line there
with than to confront their preiudices and
arouse their passions. GARFIELD rislied
much by playing his part, while HANCOCK
contributed largely TO his personal comfort
and advantage by performing the role that
is now held up as an unprecedented act of
justice and propriety.

GENERAL SHERMAN having been pursued through
the wildernosses from Pembna for several days by
a telegrophe inquiry from the World concerning
General Hancock's much h-talked.or revolutionary
letter, has ut last been reached at jamestown,
Dakota, by that inquiry. The general declined to
be interviewed IN regard 10 his correspondence at
any time with General Hancock. but stated en-
phatically that he had no recollection Of ever
hearing anything from General Hancock about
taking orders from Mr. Tilden, or, indeed, any
thing at all like the stories which have been print
ed and published about his correspondence with
General Hancock. SO says the World, This ends
another recommendation Of Hancock to the good
opinion OF the democratic believers in 'the monu-
mental fraud" Of 1876. We pointed out several
days ago that Hancock was the first the very first
general officer of the army to congratulate Presi'
dent Hayes, thus showing that he did not take any
stock in the fraud" cry, or at least that he did
intend that any belief Of his should interfere with
his prospects under the new president

POLITICAL NOTES.

THE voracty of the democrats for office is as
great as Tanners capacity for solid food will be

GARFIELD says this is nation--and It is. The
author of this able and comprehensive letter is
right. He can be right and he president, too.
IT is said that Mrs. Hendricks can talk more pol.

when she gets tired of it She can bake the incest
bread in Indiana.

threat that the readjusters will not be rccognzed'
