THE n. Y. Tribune is quite anxious to
have it understood that it is contest be-
tween the two parties this year and that
the record of either of the candidates
have nothing to do with the questions
the people must determine at the polls.
This is certainly an easy way to gloss
over the record of the republican candi-
date. If the democrats had candidate
besmeared with perjury and corruption
would the magnanmity of the Tribune be
carried to such an extent as to counsel
silence as to there damaging particulars
By no means. 1t is we'll for those who
would suffer from an analysis of the
character of a candidate to reprobate any
thing looking toward an exposure. Was
the Tribune silent about the cypher dis.
patches? Had Tilden been nominated
would it outline course which would
leave his character unassailed2 How easy
it is to be good when it pays to be so.

Hancock was appointed commander
He at once issued his famous orders,
declaring the civil to be superior to the
military authority as the war had ended.
Armed instruction was to be dealt with
by him and he offered his protection TO
the civil authorities.
His magnanimous and patriotic course
brought him into conflict with congress
and he was relieved OF the command at
his own request, and was sent to Da-
kota in 1869 where he remained until
1872, when he was appointed commander
Of the military division of the Atlantic
with headquarters at New York, which
position he now holds. The appoint
ment was made by Gen. Grant on the
death of Meade-Grant at the time was
not on speaking terms with Hancock.
Hancock is styled the "superb," on
account of his soldierly bearing, fine APP
pearance and innate dignity. He was
married in St. Louis in 1856 and had two
children, one, young man, only living.
His name was mentioned in connection
with the presidency in 1864. He was a
candidate for the democratic nomination
in 1868, 1872 and 1876. In 1869 the
democratic nomination for governor Of
Pennsylvania was offered him but he
declined.
William H. English, the nominee for
Vice-President was born in Scott county,
Indiana, August 27, 1922. He studied
for three years in university, was adj
mitted to the bar 10 1916, but has mainly
devoted his attention to farming, having
a very large estate. He was clerk of the
Indiana house of representatives IN 1913,
and in the United States treasury during
Folks administration, and of the Indiana
constitutional convention III 1850. In
1851 he was elected to the legislature
and was chosen speaker. The following
year he was elected to congress, which
position he held eight years. He has
not held any political Office since 1861.
He was president Of the First National
Bank OF indianapolis; John G.. New, once
United States treasurer, being his cash
Ter. English resigned and New became
president. Both Hancock and English
have spotless records and form the
strongest ticket that could be put in the
field.

\ CONTRIBUTION Of S24 is levied upon
each and every federal Office holder in
the land, by the republicans, for cam
paign fund. The circular making the
assessment is very carefully worded and
contains the strongest kind of threat in
the most carefully selected words. It
says that the officer will ESTEEM it q
privilege and pleasure" to pay over the
S24, and states that the payment will not
be objected to in any department of the
government. 1t closes by saying: please
reply promptly by money order, draft"
etc. Where, oh where is the celebrated
civil service order! Why does the great
moral party thus make mans position
dependent on the hberality with which
he contributes to campaign funds

THE attempts of the republicans to
make Gen. Hancock responsible for the
hanging of Mrs. Surratt show the des-
perate strait TO which they are reduced
in making war upon his character. There
was hardly republican in the land who
was not as eagar for blood at the close of
the war as a French communist, and the
execution Of Mrs. Surratt was loudly
applauded. Gen. Hancock had nothing
to do with her execution. She was tried
by military tribunal of which he was
not a member, which found her guilty
and pronounced the death SENTENCE
Judge Wylie issued a writ of habeas
corpus directed to Gen. Hancock to bring
Mrs. Surratt before him. The writ was
suspended by President Johnson. Han
cock was soldier and could not disobey
the orders of the court which found Mrs.
Surratt guilty, nor of the President of
the United States, who is COMMANDMENTS
chief of the army. His position was the
same as that of a sheriff. He had to
give orders for the execution of the judg-
ment of the court, just as a sheriff would
under like circumstances. The report is
put in circulation that Hancock was
anxious to have the woman hanged
But he stationed relays of cavalry from
the White House to the place Of execu-
ton, SO that if at the last moment the
president should pardon her, or grant
reprieve, news could be brought in time
to stay the execution. Father Walter,
Mrs. Surratt's confessor, states emphat-
ically that Gen. Hancock was in no way
to blame. Mr.. Clampett, her attorney
entirely exonerates the general, and
saysAhe was not in the court room during
the trial, and when he received the death
sentence, said: 81 am carrying out the
death sentence, and it is the most pain
full act of my life. 1 would rather take
chances on the battle field, but | am a
soldier and must obey orders" tits said
that Garfield was Il member Of the court
which condemned Mrs. Surratt

THE PLATFORM.

The democratic platform is about as
unassailable as the democratic candidate.
In pledging the democratic party to OPP
position to Capitalization, it takes steps
to ward of danger which is imminent,
not because of the willingness of the
people to concentrate power IN the gen.
eral government, but because centraliza-
ton has been going on so gradually and
in so many guises that its encroachment
has been stealthy. Nor is Capitalization
as desirable thing for rhe country, be-
lieved in by the republican party. But
it gives to that party national authority
to be used in carrying the election III
states. 1t makes the officers of the gov
eminent more powerful than the people,
and the power is to be used in perpetu-
ating their rule. Thus a wrong is intiict-
ed upon the states so that party aiyau-
tage may be reaped therefrom. Central
ization is something that should be fought
as persistently as armed rebellion.
A demand for the separation of church
and state for the good OF each is some
thing that will commend itself to all.
The financial plank Is all that could be
asked for. 1t is wiser than if paragraphs
were written upon 1t. "Gold ard silver
and paper convertible into coin on de-
mand" is a summation of all the good
qualities of money. ga tariff for revenue
only is one of the planks which is Gu
titled to the most consideration. The
democratic party has always been free
trade party, denying the right OF. govern
ment to enrich some industries at the
expense of others. 4 tariff for revenue
only is an injustice to no one. A pro-
tective tariff is an oppression to all but
those who are protected aud is path
which leads to corruptions.
The denunciation of the executive for
the partisan exercise of the veto power
is timely and proper. The allusion to
the great fraud of 1876, could not prop
erly be omitted. That is something that
must be kept before the people until pun
ishment is meted ont. The fraud issue
is not dead as some republican papers
insist it is because of the failure to nom
Innate Mr.. Tilden. 1t is crime commit
ted by the republican party, not the
wrong against Mr.. Tilden that is to be
punished. 1t is blow aimed at the life
of the nation and it is something not to
be forgiven or forgotten, no matter VITO
passes away from the scene Of strife
The platform deuounces the course pur-
sued by President Hayes in rewarding
with Office the persons who seated Linn
against law and justice.
The strong points in the platform are
l, Oppression to Capitalization; 2, Sub
ordination of military to civil authority;
3, The fraud of 1861; 4, Free trade;
), No determinations in favor OF corpor-
atoms, etc.

a TELEGRAM to the \. Y Herald from
San Francisco, says 'there can be moth
ing more certain than that at the present
moment the Pacific coast is decidedly for
Hancock for the next president. Pixley,
the eloquent Californian who seconded
Blaine's nomination says the nomination
of Garfield excites no enthusiasm, and
that even the bloody shirt can rouse no
one. He thinks even, that Grant would
have made suror candidate than Gar
field, while personally he would have
preferred the election of any democrat to
Grant. Such talk from n prominent re-
publican is producing a feeling of despair

BRADLAUGH, the ATHEIST member from
Northampton, has thrown the house of
commons into state of excitement and
has come near bringing about one of
these emergencies in which the resigna-
tion of the cabinet would be inevitable.
Bradlaugh being an ATHEIST could not
take the oath and the house has no rules
which make affirmation serve the same
purpose. A motion to allow Bradlaugh
to affirm was lost by large majority,
but the motion was not supported by
either party SIS such. Now Gladstone
has made the resembling of the molten
