LOGIC OF THE SUPERD.

HANCOCK, in his letter to THEODORE
Cook, says:
regret that you are disturbed by that bug.
bear, southern war claims. % Nobody
expects or wants such unnatural action. To
propose it would be an insult to the intelli.
genCe and honor of our people. When the re-.
bellion was crushed the heresy of secession
In ovory form and in every incident went down
forever 1t Is thing of the dead past and
We move forward, not backward.
This reasoning reminds us of the eminent
rolored gentleman who was charged with
lbstractiDg a neighbours chicken from the
roost, and being confronted by the owner
denied the theft and accounted for the
presence Of the bird in his hat by declaring
that it must have crawed unbelInown up
his trousers leg and gone to roost on the
top Of his head, So, General HANCOCK
argues, there can be no such things rs rebel
claims, because to propose to pay them
bur people; because the rebellion is thing
,f the dead past; because we movo forward
md not backward. Surely the lost chicken
las gone up the trousers leg of the superb.
In all seriousness, did ever peoples in
Ielligence receive more stupendous insult
han that? A deliberate attempt to dis.
pose of an absolutely authenticated fact by
bald assertion, backed up by chicken-thef
reasoning!
lie is sorry that Mr., Cook is disturbed about

poets such action and there cannot be any
such claims, because we move forward and

frightened Mr., Cook, but it 50 frightened
tue general that it disturbed" his reason,

But again he says;
In relation to "union war claims" tho gov,

recognize claims for Injuries to property re-

COLONEL MecLUNE,s EXpERIENCE.

Colonel MCCLURE, editor of the Phila-
delphia Times, a HANCOCK journal, and
hence cross between union and confederate
feelings and sentiments, now rises to re-
late chapter of his political experience in
this wise:
The editor of the Times was chairman of the
republican committee in this state i'm 1860
Then, rs now, debauched and insolent politi-
cal power plundered its ofice.holders and
alarmed the commercial financial and busi-
ness men of Philadelphia to enlarge the 20.
lltCal corruption fund TO prevent republican
success. Business men were preyed upon By
politicians then, Us now, and tens of thousands
OF dollars were wrung from them TO DO sauan-
dered by professional election managers. The
city was posted with placards, picturing the
idle mills and empty business houses of Phila.
delphia, with the demon of desolation piping
his song over the utter destruction of pros.
pcrityi but the republican organization tri.
umphod over ALL IL was without money and
without sympathy from commerce or TRADE
and frowned upon by the conservatism that
accepts pollution rather than change, but 10
appealed to the honesty, intelligence and
patriotism Of the people and carried Pennsyl.
yania In October in the crucial test of Mo-
vember victory, by $4,000 majority, and against
a protesting majority from the now republic
can city of Philadelphia.
The republican party of 1860 is the re-
publican party Of 1880 Except the issues
that were submitted to tho arbitrameut of
war during a democratic rebellion and set
tied in that bloody contest, republican
principles, ends and aims arc the same now
as then 1t has not changed, either in po-
sition or principle while the conrcssing
editor orthe Times has changed from being
a republican TO member in full fellowship
with the confederate democratic party
which sought the national life and failed,
and now seeks to capture the national
citadel Of power through agencies as cor
rupt, wicked and abhouent as those which
/ led to war and bloodshed, OF course, the
editor Of the Times is the keeper Of his own
| political conscience, but how he can recon-
cIle his present position with that of 1860
we cannot readily It certainly
is not invited or justified by any considera-
tions Of public welfare. The controlling
forces must be personal, if not purely
| selfish.
