The supporters of Grants candidacy
are fond of boasting, the Springfield
Republican asserts, that their man is
favored by the people. 1t is said that
the people call for the Presidents re-
turn to Office because they are distrust-
ful of the politicians and desire to rid
the country of the danger of further po-
litical agitation. This illustrates the
astonishing logic of the whole business.
A movement of which Zack Chandler
was the father and Cameron, Conkling
and Logan are the present leaders and
organizers is called popular uprising
to save us from the base schemes Of pol.
iticians. For the sake of peace and
prosperity the country is asked to re-
elect man during whose Administra-
tior the very worst political masters
had full and undisputed sway, when,
for instance, the influence of General
Butler at the White House outweighed
that of all other members of the Massa-
chusetts Congressional Delegation put
together. Is it possible that the peo-
pie will SO stultify themselvesl

senator Don Cameron, tae staI.
wart Grant manager for tho staIwart

to Senator from one Of the South
ern States. few days ago, that he
held subject to his call one hundred
thousand men In that State who
would DO ready at the word to march
to Washington to 'inspect the EIec.
toral count" Tho significance OF
this boast of Don Cameron's Is best
understood In connection with the de-
clared determination Of the stalwart
leaders that the Vice President alone
has the power to count the Electoral
votes and declare the result, and that
tho Senate and House Of Representa-
tives have no authority whatever In
the matte-, neither to pass upon any
case OF double or conflicting returns
or certificates, nor to decide any
question involving the regularity,
validity, or geDulneness OF the vote

DENTAL Electors In any State 10 send
to the Fraudulent Vice President,
Wheeler, the returns to tho effect

would declare these TO be the duly
chosen Electors and count tho vote
accordingly, in defiance and disregard
OF tho Constitution, the Senate, the
House, and the honestly cast vote oi
the State. TO declare the election OF
Grant by such a process would be a
trick TO which the Electoral Commits
sion device OF 1877 appears as clumsy
and needless. II might require a
good many more than one hundred
thousand Stalwarls from Pennsylvan-

other States, to march TO Washington

The Judges Of the Supreme Court of
Iowa are being pestered with a very
disagreeable accusation. They have
been charging the State mileage for
their regular official tours, and it is now
asserted that every one Of them rides

enough for a member of the Legislature
to be guilty of trick of the kind, but

GRANT As 4 "IUeCER. :

And now the Republican State Con-
vention Of New York has been "lugged
OF" by Grant. As in Pennsylvania,
public sentiment has been muzzled and
gagged by the political gamblers who
are playing desperately for a great
stake and the result Is, that though
not one-third of the members of the
Republican party are for Grant, yet
delegations from the Great States are in
structed for him. Nevertheless he will
not get the nomination at Chicago with
out desperate fight for it--a great
letting down from his old position when
he twice received the nomination unan-
imously. It is still asserted that unless
there is again practical unanimity in the
convention his name will not be men
toned. That unanimity he will not
find. There will be many delegations
which will oppose him bitterly and
steadfastly. Should his managers sue
ceed in forcing his nomination over all
opposition and against all protests, the
question would then recur, as the par
liamentarians would say, on the original
motion,-that is, as to his election.

the question OF FEEs.

We hope our Democratic County
Convention next Wednesday will make
decided expression on the question Of
the reduction of fees of Clerk and
Sheriff. There is much complaint
among the people on this point, and it
is not without cause.
No one can blame the gentlemen who
occupy those Offices for taking what the
law allows them, and it is not by any
means charged that they have in any
instance overstepped the latitude given
by the statute. But the remedy is in
the matter of choosing candidates for
the Legislature pledged to the advocacy
of such laws as may conform more gen
orally to the wishes of the people.
While We do not deem it advisable
to anticipate the action Of the State
Convention on a general platform we
certainly think itwould be no departure
from usages for our County Convention
to express itself concisely in regard to
the management Of our county affairs.
