THE PHILADELPHIA TINES. y
Special Telegram.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb 4.-Both the
leading republican organs of this city, the
North american and the Press, will in
their editorials tomorrow, take about the
same ground as that assumed by the
Times, which sums up the Cameron con-
vention as follows:
Senator Cameron ruled what may be
called the deliberations of the body, but
was confronted by an opposition more for
midable in numbers and more earnest in
purpose than has been common 10 bis
battles of the last ten years. The battle
of yesterday developed not. only a most
determined lot OF professionals, but they
made an exceptional record by strengthen
ing themselves and their cause as repulse
after repulse had been suffered. When
it came to direct show of hands 10 favor
of or against Grant, the opposition was
increased to 1l3, leaving Cameron and
Grant the narrow majority of 20 out of
GAG votes. This result astounded both
sides. and left the vanquished more proud
of their defeat than were the victors of
their triumph. There are none SO blind as
not to see that the Endorsement of Grant
by the Pennsylvania convention ia the
yeriest mockery. and cruel sacrifice of
Grant before the world. To assume that
the meagre majority given for Grant as
the choice of the Republicans OF this state
for the presidency can be accepted either
at home or abroad as anything else than .

say:
As far as the Endorsement of Grant was
concerned. it was done by such a small
majority that it has no weight
whatever. The great majority of the
Pennsylvania republicans are for Blaine,
but Cameron has absolute cotrol over
the machine, and has used his influence in
favor of Grant. Conkling. of New York,
will probably follow the example OF
Pennsylvania at the New York convention,
and have the Empire state also boom for
Grant. Illinois will of course do the same
so that the exploded boom balloon may
be considered as patched up.

WADE HAMPTON SPEAKS ATLAsT

From the time since he took his scat
iii the Senate, until Thursday of last
week, Wade Hampton has been a silent,
but far from uninterestcd. listener to the
debates in that body. His silence nm
broken, until then, has been eloquent to
those who knew its reasons. His speech
against the outrageous attempt to unseat
Kellogg revealed his contempt and hatred
Tor the Ben Hill type Of Southern states
men, who have been talking too much
Tor the real interests of the South.
1iili violent stump oratory on the
hellogg case was effectually rebuked by
Hampton, the whole force of whose
speech was that Of a high-minded states
man who does not believe in such ultra
partisan measures us that of which Hill
had lately been the noisy leader. On Il
question of the title of a Senator to his
seat he would not draw party or sectional
zines. The Kellogg case had once been
iuiiy tried and fairly settled. 1t could
not be reopened without establishing the
dangerous doctrine that :; majority can
arbitrarily nnscat Il Seuator.
Ills cXcoriatiou of Ben Hill as a "bomb
proof during the war must have afford
cd special satisfaction to the Senate, as
1t Will give the irrcpreSSibly warlike-
now that the war is over-Senator from
georgia, the sorest annoyance. Since
the last "threshing" he got from Mr..
l'lalne, the volublc, irascible and impetu-
olS Hill has had no such basting.

ABOUT WHITAKER.

The case looks bad for Whitaker. but
1T has not yet gone decisirely against
him.
Prof. hrecneT. who knows more about
The colorcd cadet than any one else who
has attended the trial, has faith in his
entire innocence.
The whole inquiry has been SO unmis-
takably directed toward the destruction
OF Whitaker, that popular verdict
against him should not be given until the
finding of the Court of Inquiry has been
reviewed by the Secretary of War.
But, whether he is innocent or guilty.
Whitaker's fate will not change public
sentiment as to 4 reform that is needed
at West Point
1t demands juster treatment for the
eoiored man than has yet obtained there.
No race distinctions and color caste in
the nations Military Academy.
One thing is plain, if Whitaker is
guilty:
lhe negro is much smarter than MANY
have been willing to believe.
Here is one who, on the supposition of
his guilt, has concocted a plot so subtle
that Court of Inquiry has been COM
PEELED to spend weeks to ferret it out.
How many Of the white cadets are
smart enough to have done it.

CONVENTIONS THIS WEEK.

The Illinois Republican Convention
assembled at Springfield, on Wednesday.
The time of the convention on the first
day was consumed in cffecting tenn
porary organization, and in the discus
sion of several motions relative to the
contest in Cook county. \ vote on 4
motion to adjourn being Il test of the
relative strength of the Grant and anti
Grant elements, the former proved to
have majority of 10t. On Thursday
the committee on credentials reported.
Three reports were presented-the first,
that Of the majority, was adopted-541
to 261. 1t recommended the seating of
36 Grant and Sc anti-Grant delegates
from Cook county. The temporary or
ganization was then made permanent,
and the Convention took a recess until s
p. NJ. After reassembling, resolution
declaring General Grant the choice of the
Republicans of the United States was
adopted by vote of 3S6 to 301. The
Convention voted down, by $50 to 304, Il
motion that the committee on delegates
shall report only the Delegates-at- Large.
This is equivalent to vote in favor of
a solid Grant dele CATION to Chicago.
