TWO THIRD-TERM MOVEMENTS.
Contrast of Last Grant Campaign
and Present-day Efforts.

From the Boston TrHnsrr4pt-
Despite all that has been recently pub
lished concerning the attempt OF Gen.
Grant to gain the Presidential nomina-
ton in 1880, the contrasts and compari-
sons Of the two third-term movements
are not exhausted. The contrasts are
emphasized as the present campaign goes
on. Grant did not turn against an old
friend whom he had Endorsed for the
Presidency and to whose nomination
he had powerfully contributed. Neither
did he stump the country, dealing out
invectives against his former friend and
against all who opposed the effort to
break down the Washington precedent
Grant maintained his dignity all through
the struggle, and not solely as a mater
Of policy, for he was by nature reti
cent man. who seldom spoke save when
he had something to say.
The most marked contrast betweent
the two third-term campaigns may ap-
pear when the Chicago convention meets.
The line promises to be strictly drawn
between Taft and his principles and
Roosevelt and his lack OF principles.
None OF the other candidates has as
many as twoscore delegates pledged
greEates to date only thirty-six, and
Cummins, supposed to be Iowa's favorite,
has only ten.
II was far different in the Republican
Convention of 1850. whose proceedings in
yolved all in all three OF the foremost
men Of the party, and whose outcome
was the result of 3 compromise easily
possible when one OF these rivals found
that IL he could not crafty his Rmbi-
ton he could balk the ambition Of two
OF his competitors. The three big men
in the balloting were Grant. Blaine, and
John Sherman, with a second class
composed OF Edmunds. Washburne, and
Window. Grant in all the ballottng never
fell below 304 and at one time touched
s12. Eventually the 3os went down with
the Grant colors flying, Blaine, who
started with 2s4. reached 2S5, and never
sank below 30, until within a few ballot
ings OF the stampede to Garfield. Sher-
mans maximum was 10 and his low
est score s.. As S7s delegates were nee
essary for a choice, the chance for a
determining vote against Grant was al
ways within the reach of the Blaine and
Sherman men. The final ballot, the
thirty sixth, showed conclusively the coaH-
ton that made Garfield the candidate.
Sherman almost disappearing. Blaine
got only 40 votes, and Garfield 399. or
only 20 more than were necessary to
nominate.

Senate Acted Hastily.

1t is to be regretted that opposition
by certain Senator's on Saturday re-
suited in striking from the Gal
linger police and fremen's pension bill
the clause intended to relieve in the
future Just such unfortunate conditions
as now exist with regard to the fund.
This clause, which is considered by
Mai. Sylvester and others instrumental
in framing the bill the most important
feature Of the measure, made available
in cases where other means proved in
adequate funds from licenses other
than liquor licenses. II was intended
TO provide for the deficit which occurs
annually in the fund, and which has
been the cause of great suffering among
benehciaries in the past.
The Washington Herald has led the
fight to obtain adequate pension provi-
sion for the everyday heroes of the
Police and Fire Departments. 1t has
made the necessity for just such a pro-
vision as that stricken out Saturday the
feature of its campaign. 1t views with
regret the action in the Senate.
The striking out of the provision in
question leaves the status little changed
from what it was before the agitation
began. True, the contributions levied
upon members of the departments have
been increased from one to one and
half per cent, but this is not expected
to relieve the situation to any marked
degree.
The bill which passed the House con-
tains provision for the annual deficit,
but the Senate conferees will make no
attempt to have the clause reinserted
in the bill as it returns from the con-
ference.

TWO ATTRACTIVE
DISPLAY WINDOWS

While making the daily rounds The
Journal reporters attention was at
tracted to the display window of
Mosher, the tailor, in which are shown
some very stylish and attractive pat
terms, which show that Salem's tailor
is wide-awake and up-to-the-minute,
On inquiring of Mr. Mosher If these
were imported patterns, he replied in
the negative, stating that they were
the product of the best mills in this
country, from which he gets most of
his materials. He then explained the
great saving in domestic fabrics over
imported, and that they gave much
better satisfaction, unless one was to
nay a very fancy price. Mr.. Mosher
also showed very liberal assortment
of high-class imports, stating that the
average man did mo- feel able to afford
the luxury when they could secure
such goods as the FAMOUS "SCHACK-
AMAKON" GUARANTEED FABRICS
for which he is sole agent in Salem
These goods are guaranteed against
anv imperfection, and If single fault
develops you get a new suit without
cost.
When questioned about the recent
stir made by the tailors organizing a
union. Mr. Mosher assured the report
or that the union stood for but one
thing. and that only, "a standard scale
Of wages, regardless of the quality OIL
tbe work done by the iourneyman)'
Any person claiming to be a tallor
can ioin the union, regardless OF MS
ability to make decent job, and the

mastery piece of work turned out by
his best workman.
