There is no longer any doubt of the In
tentions of the Independent Republicans
under the leadership of George w. Curtis,
of New York. Hon. John B. Henderson
of Missouri. and others. in the event Of
the candidacy of Grant for the presidency.
A call has been regularly issued and
responses have been received from Illinois.
Iowa, Missouri. Kansas, Pennsylvania.
Kentucky, New York. Rhode Island, Mas
sachusetts. Connecticut and other states
pledging support. and it is now 10 order
for Don Cameron and his cohorts to pom
der and reflect on their course. But they
will pay no attention to these threats and
go on with the nomination of Grant re-
CARELESS of all opposition. After the nom
ination comes the interesting part, how
ever, the election. Grant cannot be elected.
and there is where the shoe pinches.

The attempt to blacken the character o
Congressman Springer, because be refused
to pledge himself to seat DonnelIy, right o.
wrong, will hurt no one but those WHIT
made the attempt. The record OF Con
gresham Springer as an honorable mar
and as true Democrat cannot be easily
impugned. and the efforts OF jealous and
disappointed hot headed members to force
him into position against his judgment
will fail. Mr.. Springer is the last man In
the world to be buIldozed-his course
during the mem orable presidential contest
10 the house is proof of his staying quail
ties, and is sufficient refutation Of any
charge which his enemies can bring
His position il regard to the Donnelly-
" ashDurne case, is the only tena0Ie Gus
to take. 1t is the only way out political
nuddle. That WashburDe secured his

established beyond question. but
that the majority of over 5000
was all secured In that way is a question
IN doubt. 1t is true that, by O legal tech
nieallty over 1900 votes were not entitled
to consideration because the ballots were
mum bered-but it does not follow that

gate the case to the people for rehear-
ing, This is the position THE ARGUS has
assumed from the beginning of this con-
troversy, and appears to BIO the only honor
able settlement of the contest. Wash
burne is not entitled to his seat and
should be unseated. He holds his place
through fragrant fraud: But though he
is not entitled to his seat, il does not follow
that Dvnnelly should be seated because of
the frauds of his opponent-especially
when it is shown. or at least supposable
that he was not altogether free from like

The Election Laws /.


The New York Herald reviews the fed
eral election laws, and in an able manner
speaks of the true position to take, and
reminds Mr.. Hayes of his language in the
veto at the extra session, of the msrshale
bill, with the election laws repeal tackled
on as q rider. The Herald says of Mr..
Hayes; that in communication to Con-
gress stating his objections to bill tina,
was regarded as shocking democratic at.
tempt to get rid Of some of she laws more
or less relative TO the struggle of recon
struction. the President said that he
would approve a fair aud reasonable
measure on the subject of the federal ell
ections, presented in such q way that he
might deal with i. on its merits, aud not
IMPLICATED with the moral obligation to
sign general appropriation bill. IF that
promise is borne in mind now and is hon
estIy kept we do not believe the President
can veto the proposition now laid before
him to put an end in this country of fed
eral election marshals, They are a cor
rupt and dangerous machinery. Dachin-
cry in the presence of which it is not pos
sible to have fair election if the party in
possession of this machinery Is determined
to prevent fair election. That much is
fagrantly and Extensively evident from
the known facts of the. conduct Of these
officials, and the party which holds on to
machinery contrived and used for the de
feat of the popular will make substantial
addition to the score that public opinion
treasures up against II.
