1t has been decided not to grant the requests of
more troops just now. 1t Is thought that the

sufficient for all present emergencies. orders
have, however, been given them TO be ready for

Morrow VIII soon put an end to Victoria S raid
and that an amicable settlement OF the Ute
troubles in Colorado will soon be reached.
Therefore it is considered unnecessary to fur

APARTIS4N SUPREME COURT,

The opinions of the supreme court of the
United States on the issues raised under the
thirteenth and fourteenth amendments to
the constitution are of great Importance to
the entire American people, but it is to be re-
GREETED that the justices of the court-or q
majority of them-seem to be so blinded by
partisanship that they have been unable to
treat the question at issue in spirit of ju-
dicial fairness. In all of the decisions pub
lished they take the pains to enunciate the
doctrine that the courts of the several States
are required to give to q prisoner the right
of trial by a jury composed of white and
colored jurors, and the fact that the latter
may be excluded from the panel is regarded
as prima facie evidence that such exclusion
is due to prejudice against race, color, or
previous condition of servitude, and is there
fore violation of the fourteenth amendment
to the constitution. In the cases at issue the
parties making the appeal were negroes tried
and convicted of murder. By reason of the
fact that the mass of their own race where
the trial took place were warm sympathizers
with them and would therefore bring in a
verdict of acquitta!, all negroes we're e1clud-

Can't Comprehend 1t.
[Winona Herald


On the whole we are inclined to believe
somewhat in the charge of bourbonism
which Republicans, with base ingratitude,
launch at the Democratic party. 1t certainly
learns slowly, if it does not refuse to learn
some things at all. 1t has utterly failed SO
far to learn the extent to which Republican
leaders have debauched their own party. 1t
cannot be made to understand that the
judiciary, wherever Republicans have had
the privilege of organizing the courts, is
as much part of the political machine as
their papers, their caucuses, their commit
tees and their secret service funds. They
are always willing to fall back upon the
courts, provided they have appointed the
judges; and their confidence in their fidelity
to the party is never misplaced. Democrats
might have learned this from the decision
of the electoral commission, but they didn't.
They might have learned it from their ex-
perience in Maine, but it is doubtful if they
did anything of the kind. They seem to
be utterly unable to comprehend that there
can be such thing as partisan judge or
court.

rHE 4 MIGRANT REPUBLICANS

TIE 4 MIGRANT REPUBLICANS.
The New York HeralGs Washington cor
respondent gives voice to hitherto unrecog-
nized element in the Republican party-the
element that is unalterably opposed to the
third term movement, but which, while not
demonstrative, will have potent effect upon
the coming Presidential election. The ele-
ment is scarcely political one, though at
each recurring election it makes itself mani
fest. 1t is composed of men engaged in
other pursuits merchants, men of leisure
and literary men, whose influence has here
tofore been cast for the Republican party.
They are not ostentatious in their manners,
and seldom seek to impress their views upon
their neighbors. Yet they read, think and
reason, and the result of their reasoning has
been the conviction that the American people
as whole are opposed to a third term for
Grant, and that if he is forced upon the con-
vention he will be defeated. The machine
may propose, but the people will dispose.
Recognizing the power over caucuses and
conventions exercised by the syndicate of
Grant worshipers, these thinking men in the
party know that no protest from them would
avail. They therefore keep quiet, awaiting
events. When the time for action arrives,
however, their voice will prove to be potent
in deciding the issue. They were repre-
sented in the last New York election by the
young scratchers, who reduced CornelPs ma
jority to very small figure. These scratch
ers will appear in every State in the Union
in case of the nomination of Grant, and
will make their influence felt.
There will be one difficulty with which the
opposition to Grant will have to contend.
Nearly all of the present members of Con-
gress on the Republican side will be candi-
dates for re election: Though they are OPP
posed, almost to a man, to Grants candi-
dacy, they will be obliged to support the
nominee of the Chicago convention or suffer
defeat by reason of their peridy to the par
ty. This will.result. no doubt, in giving that
nominee, Gen. Grant, larger support than
he could otherwise hope for. 1t is sort of
compulsory fealty, but will hardly succeed
in giving Grant the full vote of the party.
One thing is reasonably certain. The can
didacy of Grant will result in large acces
sion to the Democratic strength in the
House of Representatives. Many of the Re-
publicans who now hold seats in that body
were chosen by plurality vote. There are
over fifteen districts in the country where
the change of hundred votes will alter the
results. The fact that the Republican can
didates will be compelled to advocate and ap-
prove of third termism will be sufficient to
make all the changes necessary, and we
therefore look for large increase of the
Democratic majority in Congress as q re-
suit of Grants candidacy.
The Republicans will not have an easy
row to hoe at the coming election. They
are attempting to carry things with too high
hand. The people are not in the mood to
have their preferences overridden in a mat
ter of such grave importance, and one of the
results of the election will be the complete
demolition of the machine in politics.

WASHBURN'S BRIBERY.
Mr.. Washburn's Minneapolis organ print

ed in this city has this to say:
The moral case against Washburn would be
very different if he could be shown to have
himself attempted to bride any voter, but no
proof has been adduced duplicating Washburn
in a single case of bribery.
But there IS proof that he bought votes al
primary meetings to receive his nomination
That proof is supplied by the paper from
which we quote, and one passage is as fol-
lows:
Pioneer Press July 8, 1875.
'We know that SOME VERY DISHONEST
MEN HAVE BEEN MANAGING MIR. WASH
BURNS CANVASS and we know they have i'm
mense PECUNIARY INTERESTS at stake in
his electiOn-interests 80 great that they could

LARS to have a CONGRESSMAN IN WASH

upon to ANSWER FOR THE FRAUDS they have

We know that some of these men have been
the MOST ACTIVE AGENTS and FRIENDS OF MIR.
Washburn in the canvass which has been going
on for the past six or seven moaths IN his IN
terest. They have been his ARDENT FRIENDS
FOR YEARS."
On the End of July, 1878, the Pioneer
Press gave the following testimony relative
to the primary meeting in Duluth:
Our informant AYERS that the lavish supplies
of grdtuitouS aohiSky and the ''whoop-er-up'
activity of the saloon keepers and OTHER
PARTISANS OF WASHBURN were, with some
other circumstances. satisfactory evidence "a

also AYERS that the result was not true and tai,
oppression Of the choice of the Republicans O
Duluth. He entirely confirms the statement
of a correspondent in Sundays Pioneer Press,
also a very respectable citizen of Duluth.
The statement of the respectable citizen
contains this passage:
The Washburn manipulators became alarmed.
They wanted help and change. kilograms were
sent off and help came from st. Paul in the
shape of one of the iurymen in the Page i'm
parchment trial. Hon. E. G. L.. THE CHANGE
CAME FROM MINNEAPOLIS in a Martin box.
By fabrication, the soreheads (whOm Stewart
had been unable to provide for on account OF
civil service reform), by the potent assistance
of the help and LIBERAL USE OF THE
CHANGE from the Martin box, effected a revO-
luton in Washburn's favor. PERSONS WHO

CASE OF IRELAND STATED.
We have been hearing of Ireland as long
as we can remember-we have read all we
ever saw written on Ireland, and now in our
''sere and yellow Leaf we have discovered
that we knew moth ing of Ireland or its peo-
pie until we perused Sherlock's new book.
We have from time to time wa ded through
pretentious books that told US nothing.
This book leaves nothing un told. There.
fore, if you desire any information about
Ireland, her people, the causes of her period
Ical famines, the emigration of her peasant
~, the long story of English misrule- i'm
fact, no matter what you want to know
on any Irish subject-it tells you
where it is, what it is, what it was,
and what it can or ought to be. AS proof
of the value of the work, the gentleman who
declined to preside at the preliminary meet
ing on account of his ignorance of Irish his
tory, astonished his hearers by the fullness
of his kno Wedge when he spread his eagle
at the reception of Parnell. A reverend
gentleman delivered discourse last week
in this city, on Ireland, from his pulpit, and
published it in the daily papers, in which
the entire mass of his facts and figures were
taken bodily from this book, except his con-
illusions as to the causes of Irish misery,
which he declared his belief to be 'Papacy
and whisky"
So with nearly all the speakers at the great
Parnen demonstration, from his excellency
down, all had manifestly and very wisely
crammed themselves from its pages. In
future, the st. Patrick's day orator will find
in this book an unfailing supply of feathers,
not alone to stick in the tail of their judg
ment, but also to embellish the wings of
their imagination. Yours truly, G.
