THE Chicago Tribune prints the following
gem upon its editorial pages, in editorial
type, with evident editorial appreciation:
Why not nominate jeff Davis for President
on the Democratic ticket? He is not older
than Tilden or Payne, and he represents
Democratic principles more fully than any
prominent man in the party. There is not a
moss-back Democrat on either side of Mason
and Di1on's line that would not vote for
him.--EG.
There is not hard-shell Bourbon Republi-
can that viii not lie, traduce and misrepre-
sent Tlden or Payne or any Democrat who
may be sent to carry the banner of the par
ty. The Republicans intend to make the
campaign of 1884 marvel of mendacity abuse
and libel as well as miserable proof of cor
ruption. Let them do their worst. The
people are ready and anxious to wipe them
out and with sponge.
