Nihilism lin Russia is something more
formidable than mere empty Boosting
something beyond the mouthings of dema
gogues. for its influence has been demon
strated so conclusively as TO admit no
question of the power of its organization.
Slowly. but surely.it has grown la numbers
until now. the Gear is compelled to bic
him to a remote castle in foreign country
tor security, until the danger which threa-
tens his very existence can be removed.
But the Gar will fad this 20 easy task,
as experience has already proved. When
Nihilism first assumed formidable proper
tions its power sto do harm was ridiculed'
but the attempts on the life of the Gar
and more recently the affair at Winter
Palace shows that NihiIism has within its
ranks not only those who are clamoring
for reforms, but that many members of
the Royal families are silent sympathisers
if not active participants in the conspiracy
which has for its object the overthrow of
the Gar. There is urgent need of reform
in Russia. and until the present dynasty
shows disposition to be less tyrannical,
Nihilism will continue to flourish.

Presidential.

1t is only short time since the name Of
Hon. W. r. Morrison, of Illinois, was
named MS a suitable candidate for the
Democratic party for president, and yet
from all quarters come strong endose
msnts of this able representative of the
18th district A man of unsullied name,
brave in war. statesman of the highest
order, popular with all classes, Col
Morrison would make a most determined
race against Grant, Blaine or any other
candidate named by the Republicans
and would be elected. THE ARGUS stands
ready to support the nominee of the
Democratic national convention. and does
not believe il best to advocate the claims
OF any one man, as pre-eminently fitted
above all others-especialiy at this time,
but among the many gentlemen named as
likely to be presented to the convention,
that of Col. Morrison is among the strong
est yet suggested.

Our Republican opponents who are rely
ing on the ''strong government" plea with
Grant as chief leader in the exer-
cises, may as we'll reconcile themselves to
the defeat in store for them. The people
are tired of sectional strife and the bloody
shirt tactics of the stalwart schemers, and
though Cameron and his henehmen may
succeed iasnominatipg Grant, the people
who do the voting will not support them
in their nefarious plans and purposes.
Grant can be. and undoubtedly win be
nominated at Chicago.-but he cannot
scM not be elected. Another point our Re-
publican opponents may as well UNDER
stand,-that unless Grant as elected, he
will not be seated. There will be no ''sDap
game" in 1880, gentlemen-and dent you
forget IT.

The Democracy. unlike its Repub-
lican opponents, has no boom" for
this or that man, but stands pledged
through its delegates to support the
man who seems best fitted for, and
most deserving of the SURFACES OF the
people. The Cincinnati convention viii
be one of the most enthusiastic Demo
cratic gatherings ever held, and the nomi-
nee will be the next president of this
country. This is as certain as two and
two make four.

The action of the house of representa-
tives at Washington in refusing to make
good the deficiency of Assistant Postmas-
ter General Brady, is move in the right
direction. Congress appropriated money
sufficient to carry on the postofice depart
ment under the existing arrangement at
the time of the passage of the appropria..
tions for! the fiscal year ending 1880
but assistant postmaster general, Brady,
disregarded the plain letter of the law and
exceeded his estimates, relying on congress
to make the deficit good. 1t has been the
custom of the Republican party Office
holders 40 regard the peoples
money as legitimate plumber
and in the disbursing of the
same there has been very little regard for
the law. Under Republican rule, $780,
600, 000swere squandered on the navy, and
yet to-day. the navy of she United States
will not compare favorably with fourth
rate power. On the same principl of
extravaganza the Republicans when in
control of both branches of Congress voted
vast sums for jobs and contracts, and in
fact inaugurated reign of extravaganza
unknown before in the history of the coun.
try, Since the Democrats have had con-
troll OF Congress, there has been a con-
slant reduction in the expenses of the
government and an annual saving effected
of nearly $33.00O,OO0. 1t is time that
these Republican Office holders were
taught that there is law which COM
mands respect. and if they do not willingly
obey it, then let them be summarily COM
PEELED to do SO. The average Republican
Olive holder seems to regard it as a mat
ter OF divine right to rule and plumber at
will' and any attempt to check their extra
vaRanee meets with indignant protest. It |
is pleasant to note the stand Congress has
taken IN the Star service matter, and it is |
60 be hoped that the same rule will be |

enforced in all cases where the law is not
strictly adhered to. Congress appropriates
certain amounts of money for certain pur-
poses. gand heads .of departments should
be held to strict accountability for every
dollar appropriated.

that he will not accept second place under
