The Independent Convention.

The partial and somewhat damaged report
put of the meeting OF Independents in New
York on Tuesday is a literary production Of
considerable merit. 1t belongs to the order
of politico-moral essays and contains much
assertion OF principles in the abstract with
which nobody wants to quarrel. The sub
stance of it may be recapitulated very briefly
as follows,-There is no material difference
between the parties, and consequently no
great choice between them as organized
forces for the execution of policies of States
manship. Therefore the question of impor-
lance is the choice of candidates offered.
Mr. Blaine is a bad man and Mr.. Cleveland
10 good man; there is nothing left for us
but to support goodness as embodied in
Grover Cleveland. That is about the size of
it.
The Republican party does not assent to
the premises upon which this conclusion
rests. 1t believes that its candidate for
President is not the bad and dangerous man
that the Independents strive to make out. 1t
believes that in qualifications Tor Inc ONCE
of chief magistrate of the republic be is the
superior of Governor Cleveland, and con-
corning disputed charges affecting his pub
lie character, is willing to trust the judg-
ment of men whose integrity, intelligence
and honor do not suffer by comparison with
the men composing the Independent con-
vention, ond who, after investigation, affirm
that the charges are not warranted by the
evidence of the record, and that they have
full confidence in his uprightness and re-

The Hon. Eben F. Pillsbury, whilom of
Maine, has written an open letter to Gov.
Robinson of Massachusetts, which contains
the several allegations of bribery which
were made against the Maine Republican
leaders during the famous count-out. These
allegations never rested on credible testmo-
ny, and Mr.. Pillsbury's endorsement of
them certainly gives them no additional
weight. Swan, the principal witness against
Wallace White, turned out to be swindler,
and afterwards fed from the State. If Mr.
Pillsbury were SO disposed he might give
some facts concerning the count-out, in re.
gard to the truth of which the evidence is con-
elusive. He might narrate the forgeries and
alterations of returns which were committed
in the interest of the Democratic Green
back alliance. He might also throw some
light on the motives which Influenced his
own departure from the State soon after the
conspiracy failed. He might also show that
many Of the men who hatched that shame.
less plot against free government are to-day
the recognized leaders of the Democratic
party of Maine, and that some of them were
sent to Chicago to shout for Cleveland and
Reform.

The New York correspondent of the Bos-
ton Transcript says that since the Young
Mems Republican Club of Brooklyn has pub
lished Mr.. Blaine's record, several of its
members hive changed their minds aud will
vote for the Republican candidate. This
was not the effect which the authors of the
record intended it should have. They
builded better than thew knew.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1884-07-24

spect for his motives and aims in the public
service. 1t believes, moreover, that Cover
nor Cleveland is not so free from associa-
ton with, and obligations to, men of corrupt
fame as will warrant exalting him above
other men as marvel of political virtue.
The Republican party does not believe
that TIE choice is one simply between per-
sons, who are to be considered independent
ly of their attitude as the representatives of
policies in craftsmanship, and it does be-
lieve that the differences between the par
ties whose leaders they are, whose spirit they
have assimilated, whose history inspires
them, whose general motive and aim will
guide and control their course if they are
elected to Office, are material and vital differ
ences, which no patriotic citizen can wisely
ignore in determining his action as an cleo
tor. Men who have memories are Justly
distrustful of the power of any President to
revolutionize his party. A party has char
acter OF its Owl, powerful individualism,
which either masters its administrations or
makes them impotent. In England the par
ty leader marks out the party policy and
voices it. In this country it is not so. The
masses of the party determine its character
and its purpose and choose men to lead them
in the way they elect to go, not to devise a
policy for them to accept and support.
Hence it is that the real issue is between
parties, not between candidates, and the
man who affects to believe that it makes no
difference which party is in power, and that
he is justified in consulting only his judy
ment or prejudices concerning the personal
qualities of the candidates, makes serious
mistake in his duty as citizen.
Although Professor Everett's motion that
the convention nominate Cleveland and
Hendricks as the candidates of the
Independents was defeated, the con-
ventlon in another way gave its uneuali-
fed approval to them, Hendricks as well
as Cleveland, for the two cannot be separa-
ted. And the Boston Advertiser, which
had not before distinctly announced that it
would support the Democratic nominees,
yesterday declared its purpose to do so. The
Independents appear to have been reluctant
to require Governor Cleveland to make any
special professions of regard for them. They
take him not as an Independent but as q
Democrat standing on the Democratic plat
form and responsible to the Democratic
party alone.

The winter wheat crop OF Kansas for this

which is % 95S, 1884 bushels in excess of last
year. The reports from other parts of the

the grain growing States over the wheat pro-
duction of last year, so that the prediction
made some time ago that this years wheat
crop will exceed all previous crops is pretty
