Hope Ahead

The most promising ray of hope, in
this dark hour of Republican pros
poets, Is that the Democrats will
make some egregious blunder affect
ing their chances next fall to an ex-
tent that will drive the Republicans
and Observation-Disclosures unwill-
ingly-into a common cause that out
weighs their own serious differences.
General Grant said that, given rope
enough, the Democrats could always
be depended on to hang themselves.
And it begins TO look as though the
remarkable faculty of our friends, the
enemy, to blunder were about to re
assert itself, to their own confusion
and the salvation of a badly rent and
torn opposition.
Every thing at present indicates
the nomination by the Democrats al
their Baltimore convention next July
for the presidency OF the Hon ChamI
Clark of Missouri. He leads the pro
cession in delegates thus far chosen
lie has wrested states from his riv
ais on which they counted, and which
they need His support comes from
