VIII the Republicans who are still fighting
for Mr.. Conhlug at Albany pause momc'l'
and ask thcm>clyc, calmly what they hoir TO
gain Ii is hardly worth while to cXpcnd so
much effort without an object. The struggle
plca,cs Democrats. They like to soc Republic
cans batter and befoul each other, and manu-
facturc weapons for Democrats To use in the
next State campaign. Every blow struck by
Republicans against a Republican Adnin>tra-
ton and its friends will help the Democratic
party, and therefore makes glad The heart Of
every Bourbon, COppcrhcId and Rebel III th"
State But what have Republicans to gain by
this fight
II is not possible any longer to keep Mr. Rob
ertson out of the Custom House. Il that were
possible, the desperate effort might be comprc-
hendcd, if not praised. But it is certain that
he will presently take charge of that Office ;
certain that the Administration. II this warfare
against it is kept up, will not long continue to
recognize as faithful and worthy Republicans
those who take part in II. Not a thing can be
done by the supporters of Mr.. COnkling, even
if it were possible to elect him, to change the
direction of Federal influence in this state.
He resigned because his demands were not re-
carded by the President or the Senate. II they
were not regarded then, when he was Scna-
tor. it is not possible that they would have
greater weight after months of savage warfare
against the Administration. in which the vilest
ISLANDERS of the President have been constantly
employed by Nj. Conkling's followers. When
Mr.. Conkling was thought to be absolute mas
ter in this State, and had been elected and sup
ported by Republicans with unusual unanmity,
he could not carry with him half a dozen Re-
publican Senators. If he could get back TO tho
Senate, after n desperate struggle, and, 80 to
speak, by the skin of his teeth, would his in
fuencc be any greater than it was Sensible
Republicans see that il is too late to gain any
thing of political influence, at the White House,
in tho Federal offices, or in the Senate, by vot-
ing for Mr.. COnkling. Even if be could be
elected his friends might as well elect a corpse.
NO." some will say, we will get an appeal
to the people, and put Mr.. Conkling back
with a tremendous popular indor.oment."
New-York tribune. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1866-1924, 1881-06-15

But no Republican in his senses can seriously
look forward with hope to such an appeal.
Men deceive themselves most mlserahly who
fancy that there is not an overwhelming popular
feeling against Mr.. Conkliuc. His euand-boy'
and sycophants may tell him To the contrary,
but the men who do hard work ior the party
and come into direct contact with the people,
know that nine-tcnthS of the Rcpublcan voters
would vote against Nj. Conhling to-day II they
could have chance. How is tins feeling 10 he

The anieccdent events furnish no evidence
Having met Mr. Sessions in an ordinary way
and having been urged by him to vote accord
ing to ,hc wish of his constituents, Mr. Bradley
might easily have seized the opportunity Of
having a later interview after supper rs he
>vears bee did, for the purpose of fixing a
charge of bribery upon the Senator. IL appears
from Mr. Badley's own testimony that the
later interview, at which the alleged payment
of money was made, was not by accident, but
was held ut his own suggestion in his room.
Up 10 thi, point there is nothing to establish
n presumption of guilt on either side. Mr.
bradley is in no respect superior, IN point %!
