OUR WASHINGTON LETTER
WASHINGTON, D. c., May 81, 1880.

WAsHtNGToS, d. c., May 81, 1880.
Political interest here centers in the
Illinois State Convention. The contest in
this State between the Grant and anti
Grant elements has been the most bitter
ever known in the Republican party. The
Grant men control by majority so small
that the claim that Illinois is " solid" for
Grant cannot be made. The Republican
leaders who desire party unity and success
more than they dothe success of any one
man look at. the contest with anxiety. They
fear the methods of Senator Logan in mis-
representing Districts which elected Blaine
or Washburne delegates by appointing
Grant men to represent them at Chicago,
will result in serious defections from the
nominee of the party Convention, and
which will make deleat more probable
than it should be. The Republican party
is able to govern itself, and will not brook
bossing in any form, shape, or manner.
Should General Grant receive the nomina
tion Of his party by 4 majority as large
as to preclude all charges of political
trickery, he could certainly depend upon
the support of all Republicans without re-
gard to personal preferences. But if his
nomination is TO he secured by the meth
DDS that have prevailed in Illinois, New
York and Pennsy Ivania, snch undivided
support could not he depended upon. In
this campaign Republicans should make a
nomination upon whom all can unite
heartily and without reserve. The Demo
Gratis cannot be depended upon to n0min-
nate Tilden. They know their advantage
in certain contingencies and will make u
s.rong nomination.
A little sensation was created by the
resignation of Senator Gordon of Georgia
1t is probable that it was hastened hy his
quarrel with Ben Hill, which is serious
affair and ia likely 10 split the Bourbon
party in two there. The Bourbons are very
much chagrined because the Governor of
Georgia has appointed in Gordons place,
Ex-Governor Joserh Brown, who has had a
strong tendency towards the Republican
| party at times.
There is one thing that may prolong the
session beyond the time fixed for adjourn
ment by the House, May 3lst, and that is
the desire among Democratic Senators to
pdHA SOME law regulating tue count Ol the
electoral vote. In other words, they want
to pass a law by which the result of the
next election can be placed entirely within
the control OF the Democratic majority, 10
be tortured or manipulated, as party needs
may require. Republicans will fight all
such attempts desperately, and should the
Democrats succeed in passing such n law,
| it will only react 10 the benefit of Re-
publicans by rolling up for them large ma
| jorities next fall.
The House ia rushing along, and shows
a determination TO act up 10 its adjourn
ment resolution. Let us hope the Senate
will have sense enough to follow its exam
pie. LEO.

IDLE. LIE NOT SILLY.


ED. JOURNAL :-It Is idle, II not silly, in
anyone to remind others OF facts which
nobody denies and which are so generally
recognized and we'll understood az 10 pass
almost for truisms. Yet we see this folly
constantly illustrated by the manner in
which certain knowing ~ ones undertake
TO dissuade taxpayers from seeking re.
dress in our courts against the illegal and
oppre ssive acts of our county commission
ers. Litigation is expensive and the re.
suits uncertain" and other similar expires.
sions they employ to frighten people from
seeking the only remedy left to obtain
their rights. That lawsuits are expensive
and tedious, is what very few-if any
will deny. But when people are driven 10
the alternatives OF either 10 submit hmely 10
the reckless and tyrdnnicul acts Of certain county
officials; or. to inroke he Interference Of our
courts IN such cases-il is not difficult to
choose.
But these connivers at official wrong
doing not only remind taxpayers that liti-
CATION at the best is expensive and trou-
blesome, but that, IL carried on against
county officers, said taxpayers will have TO
contend against great odds for the reason
that these officials "have the whole county
to back them"
1t was in view Of thi' fact, perhaps, that
a certain official (Who has the reputation
of being very moral and humane) tauut.
ingly remarked to one of the parties in
Two Root Ditch Suit, "the party which
has the longest pole will win" Whether lie
. l..
lated with the peoples money in the same
manner rs their organ and mouthWecc-
the Sentinei-was not very clear. One
thing, however, seems perfectly clear, and
that is: these office holders presume Il
great deal on the Taxpayers individual
lack Of resources to oppose them and this,
perhaps, explains the arbitrary and reck.
less manner in which said officials conduct
themselves towards their constituents in
certain respects. ii. ii. S.

A Wonderful Record.

Myriads of so.called specifies" and
cures" for Rheumatism have already
been brought before the public, and many
Of them have even been endorsed by the
certificates of respectable and prominent
citizens, who have derived benefit from
such preparations. There is no doubt that
great many of these Linements," /"
" Oils" etc so widely advertised and freely
recommended for Rheumatism and painful
complaints of a similar nature, have genu-
Inc merit and will relieve certain types of
the complaints named; but when Rheu-
matism, Neuralgia, and kindred diseases
have become chronic and threaten serious
results, you may rest assured that they
will help but very little. Although not
recommended as "infallible," the peculiar
qualities of ST.JAcoBs OIL cspecially adapt
it to those cases which may be termed
chronic" and which have previously
withstood all known specifics" rs well
as the prescriptions Of the best physicians.
We would mention, as an example, the
case OF Mr.. A. Heilman, of the Pitts6urg
Republican, who suffered with Rheumatism
for two years. After Rainly using all the
best recommended remedies and exhaust
ing the skill of the most experienced ply
.sicians without even temporary relief, il
required only two bottles of ST. JACOBS
On to effect a permanent cure. Mr. G.
Hanni, a well-known citizen of Youngs-
town, Ohio, secured for his wife, who for
twelve years had been a constant sufferer
from Neuralgia in the head, the services
OF the abest physicians of the land, but
they were unable to do anything for her
half bottle of ST. JACOBS OTL cured her
Mr.. VIM. Rheinhardt. Elmore, Wis, re-
ports the case OF a neighbOr who for twen.
Iy-four years had suffered 80 terribly
with Rheumatism that, at times, he could
hardly move around few bottles OF ST.
JACOBS OIL cuped her. To cap the eli.
max" however, Mr.. A. Neiger. of Tayl
vile, Pa, writes that his mother, who had
been continual sufferer with Rheumatism
for the past thirty years, used one bottle oi
ST. JACOBS OIL and was Immediately re.
leived OF all pain. These are results which
truly deserve to be brought to public no.
tice but they are not exceptions, rs will
he seen by the numerous other certificates
from all parts Of the United States. II
should be the duty of every one to call the
attention of his suffering friends and neigh.
bors to this wonderfully eflcacious prepa.
tion, especially as the low price of 80 cents
a bottle places il within the reach Of all
persons, rich and poor.

TO THE GRAND ARMY OF THE REPUB
Lie, BY J. p. LOWERING, CHAPLAIS-IS-cHIBF.
God Of the living and the dead,
We bow before Thy face:
Pleading Thy goodness and our need,
We supplicate Thy grace.
As in the days that once were ours,
In camp, On march, in feld
Our strength WAS in thy mighty ARM
Thy guardian love our shield
As when the storm OF battle lowered,
Our courage was in Thee,
And for one country and one flag,
We fought on land and sea;
As we have mourned with aching hearts
The love of comrades brave,
And gather here to scatter flowers
Upon each cherished grave;
SO muster back our dead that they
With us our ranks may fill,
And stand in glad FRATERNITY,
Shoulder to shoulder STILL
So give US faith in human right,
In justice and in Thee,
That we may hold those once our foes
In Christian CHARITY;
So make each patriot soldiers grave
A sacred shrine to be,
That high alter it may prove
OF stalwart LOYALTY;
Then when the great inspection day
Shall sound its bugle call,
May we, in Heavens grand parade,
Give answer one and all.

There is much speculation, in figures,

at the Republican National Convention al
Chicago next week. The N. Y. Tribune
estimates, GRANT, 200; BLAINE, PIT

BUREE,l3; WIEDoM,lO. BLAINE's friends
estimate, GRANT, 262; BLAINE, 1923 ;sHER-
MAN, 96; EDMUNDs, S2, and WAsHBURNE,

know the preference Of all the candidates,
nor how many will disregard instructions,
nor how many will change their yoles at

will not DO nominated.

Chief Justice WAITE recently delivered
an opinion assented to by the full bench

that "lotteries are demornliIing in their
effects, and should be treated like other
nuisances, and the State cannot, by any
law, diyeat itself Of the power to interpoSe
and suppress whatever proves noxious and
corrupting." Now that lotteries are out
lawed, and placed upon the basis Of horse
slealing and other crimes, let Congress

special tax aud let them he abolished.
