Grant was renoninated by the National
Republican convention held In Philadelphia
June, 1872. Opposed was fusion Of Demo
Gratis and disafected Republicans, with

During Grants second term occurred the
resumption Of specie payments, which had
been discontinued during the war ard
thereafter. This act was opposed by the
Democratic party. which claimed that its
result would be financial panic. Resump-
ton was, however. accom- plished without

ments as the Republican party of the United

claim its origin and no single individual can
truthfully assume to be its founder.
1t sprang into being all at once as the cul-
mination of an idea whose theme was uni

theme Were despised by society, reviled
by the press, mobbed by the populace, yet
many Of them lived to receive unstinted

pressed them.

first time since grasping the symbols OF
authority, twenty-eight years ago, the &C
credited delegates of the Republican party
will meet to select a standard bearer, while
occupying position outside the intrenched
lines of government, from which they were
driven in 1894. The man who, as the Re-
publican candidate for the Presidency, was
then defeated (by mere paucity of bal
LOTS, was one of the best-equipped states
men of our country, and had been present
ed, by brilliant eulogist, as " the grand
est combination Of brain, heart and con-
science under the flag" His name is still
magnetic, for its bare mention at mass
meetings of Republicans arouses enthu-
siasm intense and long-continued.
The feeling is everywhere strong that
his defeat was not fairly encompassed,
handicapped as he was by factional hate
and misrepresentation, which bore fatal
fruit before its effects could be counter
acted. There would be little or no difficulty
in elevatlng his name once more to be seen
upon the party standard, only that himself
forbids it in tWice-repeated terms, which
can not be mistaken or misconstrued.
The Republican delegation will not go into
National convention as the Democrats have
done, merely to pass through the form of
Wichita eagle. [volume] (Wichita, Kan.) 1886-1890, 1888-06-17

the determination is growing among the
delegates that all factional dissensIons must
be buried and the convention brought as o
unit to the will Of the majority.
One thing is clearly foreshadowed. There
will be direct issue between the parties,
and the Republicans at their National meet
ing this month Will adopt resolutions adher-
ing to the unwavering policy of protective
tariff.
At the close of four years OF Democratic
occupancy that party is committed to the
free trade idea which is Endorsed by the
Golden Clubs and in English financial cir
cles.
AS a matter Of fact, whatever rules En-
gland desires to see established in relation
to our commerce the United States does not
want.
On this issue the self-constituted dictator
now holding the Presidency should be de-
feated with any candidate the National Re
publican convention may select.

The construction Of railway line to the
Pacific Ocean was also recommended.
The first battle at the polls resulted in de-
feat for the Republican party, but it was
not crushing, for while Buchanan was
elected, he lacked over three hundred thou
sand Of receiving the popular vote.
The movement being thus started at once
gained irresistible Roadway. The Free
Sellers, anti-slavery Democrats, native
Americans and sbolitionists fell into line
under the banner of the Republican party.
The National convention of 1860 was held
