 We maintain. then, that there has never been time, for a generation, when Republi- canism has had so much to fear from success, and 50 little to fear from defeat, as in the present year. Nor is the case different with Democracy. This is, therefore, emphatically a time when men are of more importance in pol itics than measures. We claim this as no dis covery of our own. It is obviously the feeling of large proportion of the intelligent men of both parties. There never has been a time when so many Republicans and SO many Democrats were seriously contemplating a bolt at presidential electionas are now look ing forward to belting Grant, GOT boiling Til den, should either be nominated.
 It is in such times as these, when the men are of more importance than the measures that parties are to be purified In the heat of war, or under pressure of antagonistic prin- ciples fighting life and death battle, men are too much absorbed with the issues involved to look closely to the characters and ways of the men who lead them. It is in such favorable times as the present when political ties hang looser about us, that the accounts of our pol- ticians can be audited, our political machines repaired or rejected. and the work of reform can meet with the attention it never receives | in livelier political times
