TALKING 1T OYER.

CHICAGO, June AFTER the adj
journment of the convention and
while The hall was still crowded there
were loud calls for Ingersoll and
oglesby. The calls were kept up for
long time. Mr.. Ingersoll did not
respond to them, but ex-Gov. Richard
j. Oglesby did, and made a long
aud amusing speech abiding in
complimentary terms to the
various candidates for the presidential
nomination. Arthur, Edmunds. Blaine
aud the two Shermans, Logan, ex-
Gov. Fairchild of Wisconsin,, Gen. L.
5. Grant, Harrison, Gresham and
Others were in turn complimented
by the speaker and were applauded
by the audience. In conclusion he
announced that the Republican party
was going TO win, and that the Ameri-
can people would not allow that party
10 retire from the exercise of the sol
emn powers of the nation.

speech there were calls fo

Special to Il Gaze IT,.
CHICAGO, June. 1.-THE convention
held sho. SEES ion Tonight, and after
gaining an unimpcrtant step or two
was forced to adjourn on account OF
the delay of the committees In making
their report. The chief wrangle is
over the tariff plank, and this ques-
ton may put new phase on matters,
although the leaders affect to think 1t
of little Importance. The opposing
parties are unwilling to
ASSUME THE AGGRESSIVE,
each waiting on the other to make the
first move. Questions which involve
q trial of strength are cautiously
avoided, and by slow and measured
steps are the two leading factions near
ing each other to try the relative
strength of their forces. 1t Is not who
is to be nominated from among the
many aspirants, but which Will be
the strongest Blaine, or.Arthnr, and so
spirited grows the contest that the
real nominations are lost sight of in
the effort of the leading factions to Sc
cure the best showing for their ia
vorite. Rumors of the
Widest CHARACTER
can be heard on all sides of combin;
ton aud states, but 1t cannot. be said
that the aspect of affairs has changed |
since my dispatch this
evening. AT the present hour, 1880 |
p m, the scenes of last night are being
re-enacted, aud the various headquar-
tiers are jammed aud crowded with |
visitors. 1t is not improbable, in view |
IF the hardness of the various
committees and the reluctance
If the chiefs to come to AN issue, that
lie balloting will not commence for a
couple of days. Blaine men are still
confident and enthusiastic. Arthur's
ldherents are pursuing their usual
luiet course. There are several of
he other aspirants who are en-.
arging upon their hospitality
md approaching nearer to the munif-
'ences of the

ers into temples of luxury. Logan's

The Parish School Board,

In our issue of the Goth inst. we
referred in rather a complaining
tone to the dilatoriness of Gov. Nc
Emery in appointing our local
School Board. A friend has called
our attention to the gross error on
our part in rejecting upon the Gov
ernor as in any manner responsible
for the delay. Our attention is
called to the fact that Act No. %
of the Legislature of 1877, organi-
zlng our present system of public
education, confers the power Of ap-
pointment in question solely upon
the State School Board.
The Governor has nothing what
ever TO 90 with these appointments.
Section 8 of the Act referred to
makes it the duty of the State
Board to appoint Parish School
Boards in all the Parishes, Orleans
excepted, and the appointees can
only be removed by the same au-
thority.
Superintendent Easton has not
called session of the State Board
Tor this purpose, for the reason that
a bill was pending before the last
intended to re-organize
our Public School system, and
which, it was believed, would be-
come a law, and it would have been
superhuous, perhaps, to have filed
these important positions until final
action was had on the pending bill. |
Further delay was also caused in
this matter by the fact that the Su-
perlntendent has been absent from
the State attending a very impor-
ant Convention of teachers, lately |
1efd at Madison, Wisconsin, and
las but recently returned home.
The Governor, we are informed, |
las directed Mr.. Easton's attention
o this matter, and a meeting of the
State Board has been called bv the
superintendent for the purpose of
appointing the Parish Boards as
he law requires. We, therefore,
ully understand the good reasons
or delay in filing these positions,
nd also our lnadvertent error in
ttributing the delay to hardness of
'uty on the part Of Governor Nc
emery. We have all along abb
tanned from any unfair criticism of
is excellency, and have never
oined those who were unceasing in
heir senseless abuse of him.
In speaking of the School Board
ubject in a former issue, and the
Governors seeming delay in the
natter, we "barkea up the wrong
apling' as too many others have
one.
