TWO GREAT REFORM6.

The Convention yesterday, after all aoor-
tive attempt by the third-termers TO delay
and defeat the report Of the Commlttee on
Rules, completed the abolition OF the unit
rule and formally recognized the right OF
every delegate to have his vote recorded as lie
desired, by the overwhelming vote OF 4's TO
276. The rules, as whole, are substantially
those adopted by the Convention OF le'o'
with two additions. These are provision
that III taking a vote the Chairman OF each
delegation shall report the number OF the dcle-
gates from that State voting either way; ana
that when the correctness OF the announce
1nent by the Chairman Of a delegation IS
questioned then the roll Of the delegates
from that State shall be called and the vote
Of each delegate announced. This rule
abolishes the unit rule, and is declaration
that Constructions ~ will not be ELL
forced by the Convention. The strong
vote adopting this rule shows how
unanimous is the Republican sentiment
i'll opposition to Boss government. Inc Con-
vention had previously declared that tho
right Of district representation should not DC
abridged or taken away. The other addition
to the rules is provision that the National
Committee appointed by the Convention
shall, within twelve months from this time,
establish a system of regulations governing
the manner Of appointing delegates to the
next Convention, these regulations, however,
not to interfere with or deny to the several
Congressional districts the power to appoint
their own delegates.
The tllird-termers made another effort to
retain their right to vote under the unit rule'
by moving to proceed to ballot for ca1di~
date before the rules were adopted. This
motion was, as we have stated voted down,
aud the ghost Of the unit rule took its de-
narture forever
, 1880-06-06

third-terners was not demonstration for
Cen Grant, and fortunately, for they nave
done their candidate injustice enough al
ready by dragging him into the convention
when they knew the irreconcilable aversion
OF the American people to third term 1or
any man. It was the expression OF their last
desperate effort to get third term, because
1t means a third term to them OF the spolls
from which they have been kept Tor 1our
years during Mr.. Hayes clean Aaulnlstra-
tion. With a third term Of Gen. Grant
they knew that 1t was possible 70 re-
new the corruptions of the other two
terms. Their yells were the yells OF wolves
famished and desperate for flesh. Ihey
fought for the spoils and sought to OBTAIN
them by riding over and trampllng down
everything that was honest in the party
every reform, every principle, every rlght
that pertains to it; but 1t failed, and talleu
miserably. They may renew It again. ou1 IL
will be of no avail. They have done thelr
worst, and the majority Of the ConVention'
unintimidated by bulldozlng, unawed oy
force, or threat, or crack Of lash, will move
calmly on to the inevitable result OF the de-
feat Of the third term and the rout OF Conk-
ling, Logan, Cameron, and their unscrupa-
lOus minority.

|, monEsr DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE.

A great many public men have done theln-
selves irreparab1e harm, by writing letters.
Bill Morrison has committed himself to pa
per and trusted his true inwardness to the
United States mails III letter to Messrs,
Chaplin g. Gore, printed elsewhere. which Is
copy Of numerous others sent to Demo-
Gratis in this State. Its Bill Morrison's bid for
the Presidency, and its extreme lnodesty ~
will be likely to send Il swarm Of hornets
blzzing about his cnls from the Democratic
camp. One portion of his letter gives lis his
views of other Demo- cratic candidates. Til
den and Seymour are SO mixed np with local
Quarrels that they cannot be nominated; :;
Bayard's war record is against him; He'll
bricks and Thurman arc not sound OH the
financial goose; Gov. Palmer is uncertain,
and no one knows what lie will do OIL any
question; and David Davis is an unsound
Democrat, never dyed in the wool.
Consequently Bill Morrison thinks there is
but one candidate left, whose name Is I'LL
Morrison. Thereupon B. NJ. gives us his
unbiased opinion Of B. N. Us a Presidential
candidate. b. II. has 1. public record WHICH
will stand the test. lie was q private i'll the
Mexican war, and lie has Republican illdorse-
ment for his services in the late War. How
the South will howl! What he will do is
known to everybody. The State can to
something with him, but nothing with any
body else. He ought to have the Presidency,
thinks B. ~, and "wllen Mr., Tilden is out
Of the way my chances are at least as gooaas
anybody's,-too good to be thrown away to
further the schemes Of those who seek to
control the State delegation against me by i'll
direction
Such is 3. MS layout for the Presidency,
and his opinion Of Bill Morrison us a Presl-
Dental candidate. What the friends Of
Davis, Palmer, Seymour, Tilden, Bayard,
and the others will say, remains to be seen;
but they will unquestionably make 1t very
warm and lively for 3. ~, and the way they
will proceed to sit down upon his little game
will be interesting to witness. But lis
opinion OF others is not so valuable as his
opinion of himself. Here is where his mod
esty appears in strong relief. lie Is almost
us modest as John Logan! II that personal
characteristic were a qualification for the
Presidency, he would outstrip any and all
other candidates. Such ,nodesty is so rare
that it deserves the conspicuous notice we
have given it.
