Solid For Grant.

The Republican state convention for
three hours on Thursday night partook OF,
the nature Of . howling mob. Il was i'm.
possible 10 maintain order. and not until
midnight was anything like order presery--

rersonslisms we're eindalged. Some OF;

tious, openly asserted that they would not
submit to the Grant dietation. 1t was q
turbulent time and When, at o'eiock on
Friday morning Aogan,s sabstitrte for the
chair to appoint q committee 10, select
delegates, instead of a,resolution then
pending to allow the district delegations
to name the delegates, was csrried ey the
Grant crowd, there was a regular oedism,
and the Logan crowd got upon the seats
and yelled like madmeD. while the Blame
Washburne men Kissed and hooted. 1t
vas an exciting time. and several times
the roll call was interrupted. When at
last the result was announced. and Logan's
substitute was carried. the confusion IN
creased and IL looked ;asif row was
inevitable. Finally order was restored
and the chairman announced the commit
tee to select delegates TO Ghicago-and
every one was Grant man. To Illus
trate how completely the convention was
in the hands of the machine, is may be
stated, that the motion was scarcely de-
oided. when the chairman named the COM
mittees thus showing that the plan was
perfected. long before the substitute was
offered. Theconvention was the creature OF
the Logan machine, so powerfully organ
ICED as to render opposition useless. Grant
secures AZ votes pledged to him from
illinois, but BY such questionable methods
as to make the victory anything but an
honor to him or his party. While this is
true of the Grant men, there is nothing
which goes to prove that the Blaine
Washburue men would have done other
wise. Indeed, the organized opposition to
Grant was as determined as the Grant
side, and had the opportunity been theirs
instead of Logan's. there is no question
but what the same binding rules would
have been enacted. Had the anti Grant
men controlled the convention, the ex-
president would have received no reoogni
tion-and in this respect they would have
resorted to as many tricks and enforced as
iron clad rules and instructions as their
opponents. 1t was packed convention,
any way you look at it. and that Logan
succeeded is owing to the fact that his
control of the dirty work element was
more potent than his opponents. So far
as trickery, sharp practices and methods
is concerned between the Grant and anti
Grant sides-honors are easy. The con-
Vention was in every sense a machine
gathering.

it was not supposed he would force him
self on the convention, but Logan's career
has been series Of cheeky performances.
so that this latest trick need oecasion no
surprise. The final outcome ct the
Cook county contest was the admission
Of SO Grant and Sc anti-Grant
delegates. This was the cause for
loud talk and vigorous protest. but to
oppose the dictation of Logan was like
butting against stone wall. SO completely
vas the Grant machine in control The
perfection of machine work was reached,
however, when, on Logan's motion, a
Ecommittee Of 19-all Grant men--was
chosen to select the delegates to Chicago
This was vigorously opposed, but the
minority were powerless to do anything
and the fixed committee was duly selected
by the Grant chairman in charge. Never
kas the machine methods worked so
nnerringly as in this instance and with as
much unblushing efrontery. THE ARGU S
predicted that Illinois would send solid
Grant delegation to Chicago: that the
delegation would be bound by the unit
rule. and that every alternate would be q
Grant man. This has proven correct
estimate and Just what the convention has
done. 1t is impossible TO predict who
will be the nominees of the convention for
state officers, but it is safe to conclude
that, if Hawley is dominated for governor,
it will be one of the greatest surprises of
the whole proceeding . His chances of
being the nominee are not one in twenty,
The candidate will be either Cullom or
Fort, The entire state ticket will be
in harmony with Grant At noon
on Friday. the convention was still in
session with little prospect of concluding
its labors before Saturday. The result of
the convention surprises no one who has
watched the political slate closely. The
talk of the Blaine-W asbb1rue men that
Logan would not dare to defy them, did
not intimidate the boss manipulation. He
had entered into 3 contract with Cameron
and Conkling to deliver the goods. and if
money and dirty work would do il he pro-
posed to fulfil tae bargain. How well
Logan has done his work is clearly mani
fest from the progress thus far made-he
will do all that he agreed to do, and
that was-a solid Grant delegation from
Illinois, bound by the unit rule. This he
has already accomplished and the most
sxacting employer could ask no more.
This makes Grants nomination sure. To
nominate is one thing-to elect is
altogether much harder job. The re-
suit has eagendered bitterness of feeling
in the Republican ranks, which will not
soon disappear. 1t has created breach
10 the party which not even the iron clad
tactics of the machine nor the managerial
whip of Logan can heal,

And Logan spake unto the multitude.
And they were gathered about him the
wise men of the country. And hereagoned
with them and told them that unto Grant
they were deeply beholden. And then
the multitude bowed their heads before
the mighty chieftain, and with one voice
said: As thou dost ordain, great chief, so
do we all of us. And Logan was much
pleased thereat, and had council with the
wise men of his party. and they did greatly
rejoice. But there came unto the great

sired another than Gnant. and they be-

neither would he hearken to their suppl

and did renounce Logan, and did loudly
proclaim that they would choose another

man Grant. When Logan heard them
speak, be was much angered and did de-
nounce them as traitors and dissenters,

But they hearkened not to his voice but
departed from him in great anger, and
there was much confusion and disorder
