Seymour rushed back to the platform and

he shouted: Gentlemen. your candidate

has never resulted in any action.

The long and bitter quarrel between
President Johnson and Congress resulted
in the adoption OF policy of reconstruc-
ton OF the southern states. which had in
1t more of Thaddeus Stevens than of
Abraham Lincoln. It resulted also In the
enfranchisement Of the negroes. But. so
far as the campaign Of 1868 was con-
cerned. its most important result was the
adherence of Gen. Ulysses S. Grant to the
republican party and his triumphal cleo
ton to the presidency. Gen. Grant was
the greatest of all the war heroes. yet 1t
was with the utmost difficulty that he was
persuaded to become candidate.
In the first place, Grant was a democrat
so far as he had any politics at ALL His
last vote before the war was for a radical
pro-slavery democrat. and he was not
even a supporter of Douglas in the quad
rangular fight Of 1850. He never cast a
republican vote until after he had served
eight years as a republican President.
The democrats claimed him. They had
even talked of nominating him in 1864.
During the johnson administration there
was an earnest effort to get the demo-
cratic party on its feet and to nominate
Grant for President. If 1t had not been
for the quarrel between Congress and the
President. which resulted in a violent
break between Grant and johnson, the
proba bilities are that Grant would have
been nominated and elected by the demo-
Gratis in 1863.
But johnson had provoked Grant to
anger and had attempted to supersede
him In command of the army by calling
Gen. Thomas to that position Grant
naturally found sympathizers among the
republican leaders in Congress, nearly all
of whom hated Johnson with their whole
souls So when the republicans began
to plead with Grant to be their candi-
date ne listened. For a time he held
back. honestly doubling the wisdom of
the step. Finally his consent was obtain
ed his candidacy announced and the
whole thing was over. So fas as the
head Of the ticket was concerned. the
republican national convention, which
met In Chicago May 20. was merely a
ratification meeting.
The republican convention met In Chi
cago on the same day-of course. 1t was
accident-that the national soldiers and
sailors convention met. The soldiers and
sailors got under way little quicker
than the republicans and recommended
the nomination Of Grant. The conven-
ton. next day. accepted the recommended
ton with a whoop.

simultaneously with the foregoing
steps the war department has been
proceeding with the reorganization
Of the army at home. The formerly
disassociated units are being united
into tactical organization Of three
divisions, each consisting of two or
three brigades of infantry and, so far
as practicable. proper proportion of
divisional cavalry and artillery. OF
course the extent to which this re-
form can be carried by the executive
is practically limited to paper or
ganization. The scattered units can
be brought under a proper organiza-
ton, but they will remain physically
scattered until congress supplies the
necessary funds for grouping them
in more concentrated posts. Until
that is done the present difficulty OF
drilling our scattered groups togeth-

proper team play, can not be re-
