already to have reduced itself to a
few easy and simple proportions.
Sherman is the only man that carry
Ohio; Hendricks is the only man
that can carry Indiana; Horatlo
Seymour is the only man that can
carry New York; Tilden is the only
man that can carry Kentucky,
Grant is the only man that can
carry Illinois; Bayard is the only
man that can carry Delaware;
Allen G Thurman is the only
man that carry West Virginia; EN-
Governor English is the only man
that can carry Connecticut; Ran
dali, Mcclellan and Parker are the
only men that can carry New Jer-
sey; Judge Settle is the only man
thai can carry North Carolina !;
Judge Field is the only man that
can carry California, and Gen. But
Ter is the only man that can't carry
Massachusetts,. Any one giving
the situation as thus presented a
moments attention can easily see
who will be elected President
Philadelphia Times.
Strange the Times did not
recognize the fact that, accord
ing to the sentiment of the
Louisiana and Mississippi press,
Hancock-Gen. Winfield Scott
Hancock-is the only man that
can carry those two States. Ii
Louisiana and Missippi are to
be Ignored in the stupendous eff
fort to make a President, then
the distinguished Hancock "will
be left About the only thing
we can predict now is, that when
the Cincinnati Convention meets,
we shall see what we shall see.
It seems to US, however, thai
Thurman can carry other and
more populous States than West
Virginia. II the South will unite
upon him, he will be our next
President.

Grant differs from all other
Presidential aspirants in the
methods he employs to ontstrip
competitors. He Deals in the
magni6cence of distance and gol-
den silence as his chief political
agents, and they have Well full
filled their purpose. Withou,
personally appearing in the con-
fict, he has more delegates to-
day than any other Republican,
and the men who have secured
what he has already gained are
the very best men we know of to
get the additional number need
ed to give him a majority. The
people now and then smash a
cog out Of the machine, but it is
quite possible that it will have
enough motive power left to
make Grant the nominee.
1t therefore behooves the peo
pie Of the United States, who
desire Grants defeat to grid
themselves up for fierce aud a
hotly-contested political fight,
In our opinion, one of the most
desperate political struggles is
before us that this country has
ever seen. Our motto should be
to defeat Grant. With a United
effort we can do it. With Allen
G.. Thurman as our standard
bearer, we can do it.

J. Floyd King IL the national

experience that a "change is not
always for the best" While We
bow, with the profoundest re-
spect, to the superior talent Of
our Monroe contemporaries, We
must unequivocaliy remind them
that they are committing the
South mlstaNe when they ad-
yocate another than King for his
successor. It will take a long
time for any man to learn what
King already knows; therefore
let King stay where he is. In
short, we Want King sent back
to Congress from this district.
Let US make no more mistakes.

The indications are now, that

D6 lUulChblODS are now, III q"
the Louisiana Convention will be
composed Of men who will advo-
cate the nomination OF General
Hancock at Cincinnati. The
tone OF the Democratic press OF
the State favors and presses the
nomination Of Hancock. The
press is generally al index,
pointing out the popular senti-
ment and popular desire of the
people. Indeed, the press usu-
ally shapes and moulds popular
sentiment. Regarding the press
Of Louisiana as an indicator and
an exponent Of the popular viii,
the people of this State may be
counted upon as genuine Han
cock boomers enthusiastic Han
cock men!
This enthusiasm may result In
a serious mistake, too. An over
Jealous anxiety to haVethe gallant
Pennsylvania soldier occupy the
White House, may induce our
State Convention to instruct It's
delegates to the national conven-
ton in such manner as will do
untold injury to the party.
While we are not an enthusiast
tic Hancock man, We want the
delegates to Cincinnati so I'M
trammeled as to use all their in
huence against the old "wishy-
washy" Tilden. By instructing
our delegates to vote solldly for
Hancock, the chances of Tllden
are augmented. Let our dele
gates go to Cincinnati unencum-
bered.
