Tilden is in full blast. One feature of it is
an interview with Hendricks in which he is
made to declare his belief that the old ticket
of Tilden and Hendricks can be elected in
1884 and this being the case he is willing to
make the Sacrifice" of accepting the second
place on the ticket for the good of the party
and the country. Forty-six Democratic pa
pers in Indiana have declared for the old
ticket. It is good thing for the Democrats

nominated Judge j. b. Foraker of Cincin-
natl for governor, and William G. Rose of
Cleveland for lieutenant governor There

In his speech on taking the chair Mr.. Sher

party of Ohio believed in protection for
American industry, and that the party would
stand by the Scott law for restraining the
liquor traffic as being the wisest measure vet
suggested for that purpose. The platform
adopted declares for protection, for national
bureau of labor statistics, and for taxation of
the liquor traffic. 1t approves the wise and con-

The next presidential campaign promises a
singular restitution of principles, or practical
issues The administration of President Ar.
thur will probably have SO far introduced the
new method of dispensing the patronage as
to have placed it upon practical trial. Both
parties are pledged to its support. There
are no financial questions which assume par
ty aspect. The only issue on which parties
can divide is the tariff, and even upon that the
Democrats are more likely to divide them
selves than their opponents. AS to candi-
dates there is almost equal lack Of the mate
rails for a forecast. On the Republican side
the presumption that the president would
himself be q candidate for reelection is thrown
in doubt by the apparent fact that he is al
ready cloyed with the sweets of power. OF
the candidates of 1880 neither Sherman nor
Blaine has gained additional strength and
Gen. Grant is not likely again to enter the
list. Edmunds is the only man who has made
gains, and he becomes more and more prom
inent the nearer the Republicans come to a
realization of their need. Although he comes
from a safe and sure state, he has the vast
advantage of never having sought the place,
of being above reproach in his career of hav-
ing been right on all great issues, and of
having been the center of no factions and
quarrels. In availability he must take the
first place, as being able to unite the factions
of New York Republicans and being accept
able to the party as a whole in other states

who can carry New York

The Harvard College board of overseers
voted last week not to confer on Gov Butler
the degree of LID. at the coming COM
mencement, in accordance with the time
honored custom of giving this honor to the
governor of the commonwealth. Whether to
give the degree or not to give it was the sub
ject of no end of preliminary discussion, and
since the decision of the overseers there has
been far more talk about it than the matter
deserves. The better public sentiment of
New England generally approves the action
of the overseers as being self-respecting
one and upbolds them in their right to ex-
press by this means their disapproval of But
ler's public character and political methods
Butler himself is probably glad of the re
fusal because he will hope to gain from the
ignorant classes by means of it a few thous-
and votes in the fall election.

THE following Indian items arc given by Mayor Ross to the Tucson Star who on recent trip to Solo- monviIle met Capt. Clay Buford, the famous Indian scout:
 Captain Buford stated that a few nights before, Naicha, the Chirica> hua chief, and family, stopped over night at his ranch and talked freely on the Apache question. Natcha is the second son of Cochise, the fam ous chef, and is head chief of the Chiricahua hand. He says his peo- pie are all coming in and will re. main on the reservation, but he does not think Geronimo, who is head chief of the Warm Springs Apaches will come. The ChIricahuas have scattered and are coming in in squads of fro n three to five entirely without arms, so that they will not be moiesied by renegade whites.
 Major Ross also had talk with several old>time scouts, and he says they all are in tbe;opinion that little Charley McComas never lived many hours after being captured. They say that they base this opinion on the fact that the Indian who was killed in the attack on Aliens char coal camp, below tn Huachucas was one who was well liked by his comrades, and that it is not Indian nature to take prisoners and hold them wher-eAe of their favorites has been killed.

It will have a general office at 702 Market St. It will run along the shore to Santa Cruz and cross the coast range near Gilroy; thence crossing the San Joaquin valley it will climb the Sierras and cross that range near Mariposa. The line will be about 1 200 miles in length, with branches to Ogden on the north and to the Atlantic Pacific lIne on the south. Among the names of the incorporation are several prominent men in this city.

 The above item IS not without some considerable truth, but our coe temporary does net seem to under- stard that Gen. Crook is not so 'isoundly berated" for what he did or did not do as for the stories true or untrue which have been circulat- ed at the time of and since his res turn from Mexico. These stories coming from different sources con- hict and circumstances seem to in- dicate that those first in circulation were too highly colored. People af- ter a time became disappointed, not to say disgustcd, that their expecta- iiops were not satisfied General Crook himself was probably disap- pointed as to results.

TIE eastern elections have come and gone and as a whole are rati- fcation of Republican principles and Republican government-not simply because they are Republican but because the principles of that party arc more nearly the principles of the people and because the con- duct Of the government has evident> y been in the interests of the people and not in the interest of party.
