IRONTON. THURDAY

whole Republican side Of the Senate,
when the bill went to that body. In
other words, they resisted a measure
intended to reform an admitted abuse,
made notorious by gross scandals in all
the large cities, and went solid for
keeping the appointments exclusively
in their own hands.
They have also shown desperation
in their course i'm regard to the army
bill. The long contest between Com
gress and the Executive at the extra
session resulted in an agreement that
fell far short of the original demand OF
the House, and far below the demands
of public opinion. The people de-
nanded that citizens Of the United
States should be ut least as tree az sub
jects of the Queen of England have
been for one hundred and fifty years
on the day of election, without the
presence or the restraint of a military
force.
Every measure looking to this per-
feet freedom was opposed by the solid
vote of the Republican party i'm both
Houses, and was vetoed by the Fraud
ulent President upon false pretences.
The aim of the Republicans was to
hold the army in hand as party ma
chine for use at the Presidential elec-
ton, and the veto was exercised tO
preserve that control. Hayes became
the willing instrument of the men who
most despised him, and who have
taken no pains to conceal their COLI
tempt.
Finally a compromise was effected,
as follows:
THAT no money appropriated in this act is
apprOI rated or s ,all be paid for the suosist'
ence, equipment, tranr nrportation. or c9mpen; ;
States to be used as police force to Keen the
pence at the polls at any election held within
The amendment was adopted with
only thirty-one dissenting votes, cast
by Democrats who did not think
enough had been obtained, and by Re.
publicans who thought too much had
been yielded. All the leading Repub-
licans are recorded in the affirmative.
That ended the controversy, and both
sides accepted the settlement as conclu-
sive.
Now It Is proposed by the Democrats
tn re-enact the language above cited, in
the army bill for next year, without
changing word. The Republican
leaders, who by speech and by vote
sustained this section i'm last June, are

Unanimous for Grant.

Ed. Register
At the Republican convention con.
vened at the courthouse, in Ironton, on
Saturday, April 10th, the choice oi
Presidential candidates was taken,
which resulted in none for Sherman,
three for Blaine and the balance for
Grant. When, on motion, seconded
by the man who put Blaine in nomi-
ton, it was made unanimous fol Grant.
The delegate to the State convention
was instructed not to support any but
Grant delegates to the national con-
vention. The IRON COUNTY REGIS
TER was requested topublish the pro-
ceedings. This explanation is made
necessary by the failure OF the secre-
tary to furnish full proceedings Of said
convention. FAIR PLAY.

rllAcfl Alnd Newspaper Predic-
8 tlOnY.

Widen papers, having no
oths<S Sseble grounds upon swhicl,
f6SS ~ kkeif fobjscti8Rs to him, cry out
that, " Il .snot available. 2 that .'he
can't carry New York." etc.. and in
proof publish plentiful excerpt from
the New York press-frOm the World
the Herald, etc. Now, we have faith
in newspapers as such; but almighty
little in them when they doff their
proper habiliments and take on the
role of prophets. Their prophesies in
reference to Tilden in the past have
been especially unhappy in the sequel.
We have several of them in mind
which we shall reproduce hereafter,
and can make room now but for a
sample brick. 1t is taken from the
New York Herald of April 10th,
1876:
sHnwever sanguine may be Gov. Tilden's
estimate of his chances, it is au estimate not
shared by the D :mocratic party at large. He
will soonor or later have to sbAndon his pre-
tentione, ana it rests in his choice whether he
will make an early and voluntary surrender fn
exchange for real power or will blindly cling
to them until they shall have dwindled to such
insiynifcance that In giving up the Presiden-
tial prize he will give up all his political con-
sequence. We tender him the same advice We
gave to President Grant two months ago.
Governor Tilden has, as yet, power enough to
determine who shall BE- the Democratic candi-
date in case of his withdrawal, and, assuming
that his canvas has not been entirely selfish
and personal, every motive OF public spirit
should impel him to exert his influence for the
best advanta.e Of bis party and the country.
To-day he js strong enough to dictate the NOM
ination, although he cannot be nominal d him
self; and in this respect, II in no other, he oc-
cupies position similar to that occupied by
President Grant when the third term tide had
turned and Mr.. Blaine seemed to be coming
man, rs Judge Davis does now In the Demo-
cratic party. As Blaine's canvass was an at
tempt to rise on the ruins of Grant, SO the
canvass OF Judge Davis is the symptom OF a
Democratic revolt against the preteusions Of
Gov. Tildeu."
y
= ssBut II Governor Tilden fights the battle for
himself, he will fare no better thsn President
Grant would have done had he continued in the
field on his own account"
ssThere is no other way in which Gov. T.lden

icnce, or so fully establish his political innu-
.nce, a BY with irawing his claims in favor OF
senator Bayard. He will thereby clear himself

The Republicans Desperate.

The Republicans In Congress. es-
pecially in the House Of Reresenta-
tives, have made q desperate fight to
continue the appointment OF deputy
marshals as electioneering partisans.
even after De Golyer Garfield admitted
the gross partially and wrong Of the
existing system, and offered an amend
ment to correct It. The Democrats
took the Republican leader at his
word. but when they had accepted his
compromise, Garfield himself and the
party voted against it. So did the

The Republicans of Garfield's dis
trict. in Ohio, are Home Rulers! They
protest against their delegates tn ths
Chicago Conventions being elected hS
the entire State convention, and insist
upon eleciing themselves. To this end
they have called a district convention
to which the question of delegates will
be submitted. By-the-by, it is report.
ed and generally believed that Garfield
himself is Presidential candidate.

Another boom reported is that of En-
glish in Indiana. English has estab-

in securing the nomination he will

The Blaine men seem to have made
q mistake when they insisted on the
unit rule in Kansas, and refused to al
low the Grant men in the convention
to elect any delegates. AS it is now, it
will be impossible for the Blaineites to
complain or object to the rule adopted
by the New York and Pennsylvania
conventions, which compels the whole
delegations ofthese States to vote sol
idly for Grant. Notwithstanding the
fact, however, the Blaine estimate of
the vote at Chicago gives he"plumed
knight" twenty-eight Of the fifty-eight
delegates of the keystone State, while
it insists that he will get the solid vote
of the Kansas delegation.
