INregard to the reelection of Governor
Cullom the Springfield Monitor, demo
cratic sheet, has the following to say
"Gov. Cullom is the first and only man
who was ever reelected governor Of Hi
nols. Regarding him from q non-parti-
san stand point, we can say that he has
abundant reason to be proud Of the result
OF Tuesdays election. He has been re-
elected by largely increased popular ma
.jority, and may interpret the fact as an EN-
phatic Endorsement of his administration.
The democratic leader whom he has beaten
is one Of the most eminent Americans.
Gov. Cullom himself regards Hen. Ly-
man Trumbull as one of the greatest
statesmen of the country-a position to
which the Judgment of fair-minded men Of
all parties readily assigns him. To have
achieved so decisive victory over SO dis
tinguished leader OF the democracy is
something upon which Gov. Cullom de-
serves congratulation from his fellow citi-
zens, whether democrats or republicans, in
this community. The democrat is narrow,
indeed, whose mind cannot sufficiently eX-
.pand to grasp and appreciate tins sentiment.
Widely as we differ from Gov. Cullom as a
politician, our interest in the common wei
fare prompts us to hope that his second adj
ministration will be creditable to the stute
and honorable to himself as public SER
want"

CHICAGO Times: "There is an absurd
tradition among candidates for Office that
it would not be honorable for any one of
them to vote for himself. This aflectation
OF modesty at the ballot box is the more
ridiculous because of their previous undis.
guised anxiety for nomination, and their
unwearied exerton to secure their election.
If they will not vote for themselves, what
right have they to ask friends to do so'
Four years ago Mr.. Tilden went to the polls
in his precinct and voted for the dem ocratic
presidential electors; but Mr.. Hayes had 1t
given out as an evidence OF his modest
merit that, his personality being involved,
he would not vote. If as is often said, it
is the duty of citizen to vote,
the fact Of the candidacy of citi-
zen for an Office furnishes no adequate
excuse for his failure to perform that
duty. Mr. Tilden's act was the very refine
ment Of modesty, if a sentimental view of
the matter is to be taken, while Mr.. Hayes
position was the grotesquely egotistcal.
Mr.. Tlden, as citizen, voted for the cleo
t,rs who would choose him, because they
w.re the representatives of an idea of which
n, was to be but the agent, an idea which
he held in common with millions of the
electors OF the union, and in the carrying
out Of which personality was mere agency.
