LEAyESWoRrH, Kas., May 29-The posi-
tion Of the Republicans Of Kansas to-day is
the same as on the 2Gth day of August, 1874,
when, at their State Convention, they made
what Is claimed as the first public declara-
ton agninst third Presidential term III the
following resolution:
:, hcao9ucd, That the unwritten law enacted by
the example of the Father Of his Country in de-
rs controlling as though it were Incorporated in
Inc constitution, and ought never to be violated.
Inns was the sentiment then. and the fact
remains that, despite the most desperate ef-
forts on the part Of the machine politicians
to Wrest the State from Blaine at the last
Convention aud hand it over to Grant, the
triumph Of practically unorganized major
1ty over thoroughly organized and desper-
ate minority was most complete. There are
very few Republicans but who admit that
there Is no sound basis Of party policy for the
Grant novetnent and the far-sighted poll
ticians Of this State, even those who would

Special Dispatch to The Chdcuoo Tribune
LANSING, Mich, May o9.-The probabili-
ties and possibilities Of the coming Presiden-
tial nomination are the all-absorbing topics
Of conversation at Michigan's Capital. A
large delegation Of citizens will attend Ahe
Convention, many Of them leaving for Chi
caeo the present week. It is currently be-
leyed that Bosses Cameron, Conkling, and
Logan will fail in their crowning attempt to
foist Grant as a candidate upon an unwilling
people, and it is almost universally admitted
that Michigan will be weak sister - in the
Presidential struggle if the so-called
"strong man" is set up to be her
coming lord and master. Speculations
are rife IS to the modes to be adopted by the
respective party leaders to secure their OBJ
jects and confidence is expressed that it will
be case Of Greek meeting Greek. The
authoritative denial by the Hon. James F.
Joy, one of The delegates to the Convention,
who has just returned from Europe, Of the
sensational canard published yesterday in
one Of the Detroit papers to the effect that
Senator Blaine once attempted to obtain
bribe from him, excites much favorable COM
ment and is accepted as revealing the
LENGTH TO WHICH TIE GRANT MEN

Michigan Republicans to-day, for expressions

old Stalwa1t yesterday, when asked as to
whether he would vote for Grant in case
be was nominated, "No, sir; voted for
third term for me-" There are many of the
greatest admirers Of Grant in the State who
do not favor his nomination under any cir
cumstances, for the reason that they cannot
bring themselves to look with complacency
upon the precedent Of third term. All the
ugly thrusts at his Administration these men
regard as the weak invention Of the Democ
racy, but the objection to third term in the
minds of shrewd. thinking men is deep
rooted and amounts to defnlt doctrine.
Their prejudices against the further honor
ing of Grant in the Presidential direction are
very strong: especially is this the case
among the masses, and particularly among
the Germans. There is not German Ill this

many Of them who are Democrats would vote

Ms. Blrd's speech.

The address Of Lsvi c. Bird, Esq,
before the Republican League, at the
Opera House last night, was Of special
interest to Wilmington, being the only
complete presentation of one OF the
great issues Of the campaign, that Of
the tariff, with reference to its bearing
upon our industries. The speech was
. very able one, dealing, as 1t did, in
fairness and candor, and 1t had no I'M
certain sound or doubtful meaning. II
was an address which clearly met the
views of the many influential gentle
men who sat upon the stage, and the
audience, vOomposed in large part Of the
lAboring classes, which more than any
other are interested in this question,
endorsed his statements with.much ap-
plause. The great Importance Of the
question, and the complete and COM
prshensive manner in which 1t was
handled, render an explanation for its
publ alton in full wholly unnecessary.
We can but endorse everything the
speaker said, and commend 1t 10 our
readers for a careful perusal.
