lllfcklu tribune. ED. BOECHERDT, Editor & Publlsker. THURSDAY, MAY 31, 1877. The reported secret meeting in W ash ington to organize a Blaine party in op position to Mr. Hayes lies dwindled to a meeting of abort six men, and Mr. Blaine had nothing to do with it. A Greenback state convention is to be held at Sparta, Wednesday, May 30, when a state ticket will probably be nominated. Colonel Reuben May, of Vernon county, is mentioned for Gov ■rnor. Sam. Carey, of Ohio, is to ad dress the convention. ■—— Fob some reason or other the Demo crats don’t say much about running Mr. Tilden agam as their candidate for President in 1880. They have picked out several candidates for the Republi cans already, but they are sileut about their own man. The report that the President has de termined to recall all foreign ministers is confirmed. He is said to regard the representatives abroad as in a particular sense exponents of the administration, and therefore to desire to select such as will reflect his views, and character of the administration. Senator Morton has written a letter on President Hayes’ southern policy which has called forth a number of opinions from able men which are as diversified as well can be. We confess that we do not kuow whether to be pleased with it or not. A synopsis of the letter is given in another column. The war between Russia and Turkey is progressing slowly and as yet no event of very great importance has occurred on either side. The columns of the big dailies are filled vith war news, after reading which one .‘s as confused as was the Dutchman who, when asked what he thought of a certain measure, answer ed “I dinks damr !” The sheriff has taken possession of The Milwaukee Daily News, by virtue of an execution granted in favor of E. W. McGann, the secretary and treasurer of the concern. The execution amounts to $9,300, and was obtained in due process upen secured notes against the News Cos. This newspaper concern appears to be otherwise involved in trouble, and it is thought it has not many days to live. The President in a recent conversa tion very effectually squelched the story regarding his purpose of forming anew party, saying, in substance, that he had always been a Republican, is a Repub lican, and that the Republican party was never more necessary to the nation than it is to-day. That party was good enough for him, he said, and by it he ment to stand. That is a pretty emphatic con fession of political faith. Gen. Grant will be the guest in Lou don of Mr. J. S. Morgan, the partner of the late Mr. Peabody, the so-called American “Prince in England.” It is said the President is purposing to daz zle the foreign courts by wearing the f all uniform of General of the United Stales army. In Paris, Gen. Grant will be the guest of MacMahou ; in Berlin, of Von Moltke ; and in Bt. Petersburg, of the Emperor. Gov. Stone, of Mississippi, showing no disposition to “stir up” the Kemper county business, Mr. Evarte proposes to stir up Gov. Stone. His letter will be awaited with great interest, and ought to put a.a end to some of the many forms of misrepresentation to which the Ad ministration is subjected. It will be of service, too, in showing Republicans of both colors in the South that President Hayes, so far from “abandoning” them, is determined to see that their rights are protected, and that, where he cannot use to this end the legal powers of his office, he will use the authority of his name. Several Republican papers of tbe state have broken ground in favor of the nomination of Hon, Win. E. Smith, and it now looks as though Mr, Ludington’s chances for re-nomination were rather slim. The Waupaca Republican, Chip pewa Herald, Richland Observer, Bran don Times, Fox Lake Representative, Dodge County Citizen and two papers in Waupun, and the Grant County Her ald, have all expressed a desire for a change. We believe, from all that we can hear, that this is the sentiment of this part of the state. We are not dis posed to disparage Gov. Ludiugtou in the slightest degree. We acknowledge all his merits but wo cannot shut our eyes to existing facts.— La C. Leader. Ex-Cokgrkssmak Leach, of North Carolina, a prominent Democrat, and one of the most effective political ora tors of the state, wrote a letter recently endorsing the policy of the President in unequivocal terms. In a visit to Wash ington a day or two since, he reiterated, in even stronger terms, the sentiments of his letter; and, in company with several prominent North Carolinans, Democrats and Republicans, called upon tin President. They all expressed to him their cordial approbation of his policy, and gave him assurance that an administration party would so~n rescue their state from Democrats control. This is the most positive indication that has yet appeared of a break in the southern Democratic ranks, and is all the more encouraging because it comes from the southern state whore the Re publican party is the most thoroughly organized. Colorado, the youngest of the states, contains more than double the number of square miles than New York; and Texas is more than twice as large as Col orado. The figures are; Xew York, 47,000 square miles; Colore do, !Oo,000 : Texas, "247,000. If Gov. Stone can’t find a jury to con vict the Kemper murderers, he will dis cover before long that a larger jury has convicted and sentenced him, OUR WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, D. C., May 25,1877. The question is often asked, why is it the hottest weather which prostrates humanity and forces it into use of every possible device to ward of the effects of the terrible heat should prove just the desired means of infusing strength and vigor into the insect tribes. For the past ten days it has been fearfully hot here, and while we poor mortals were nearly frantic in our fears of sunstroke, insects of every species, day and night, buzzed and pinched and bit us till our disordered imaginations told us the dog days were here and Sirius had gotten down so near that his flaming sword would soon sweep us into his fieriest furnace. Strange to say that with these pests came an avalanche of office-seekers who have swarmed into the White House from early morn to bedtime at night and now the question is why has the warm weather aroused the one as well as the other into such active life ? What has the weather to do with the matter of offices, anyhow ? Well, if the President can endure it, so can we, though he does get more pay than we do for this endur ance of ills brought upon the city by the elevation of the thermometer. It is hardly patriotic to class insects, pests and sunstrokes with office-seekers. But as the latter are such pertinacious borers, and are so utterly destitute of conscience or blood as well as so deter mined to suck every particle of life or blood out of whatever human being they fasten onto that we are led unconsciously to regard them a kin to mosquitos and other animals of the blood extracting order, and judging by the way the Pres ident suffers at their hands, one is about as obnoxious as the other. Baltimore blessed him with another delegation,who as usual tried to hound him into an im mediate appointment of a postmaster for that city. Other cities poured in their delegates also, and associated with these were hundreds seeking after individual place till it really seemed Presidential duty consists solely in listening to the plaint of the office-seekers. Men with hobbies haunt the White House. One wanted all steam cars stopped on Sun day. Another wants no more American securities sold in Europe. Lately, one John Pope Hoduett who spouts agrarian ism to the negroes and who fleeces them of whatever money he can wheedle out of them under pretence of being their Saviour in these hard times, headed a delegation of his flock and made his customary set speech to the President. This fellow is another of our pests.— We have said Boss Shepherd was justi fiable in the creation of our immense city debt, even if he done nothing more with the money than fill the old canal which with its 100 feet breadth of cor ruption ran right through the heart of the best portion of the city. Yet time adds a qualifying clause became he did not bury John Pope Hodnett in the depths of the sewer filth prior to the filling of the canal. We are willing to endure excessive heat and swarms of insects because they allied you as well os oi irselves, and misery loves company. But as Moduett afflicts only Washington we pray to be scared and ask from the bottom of our hearts, Oh Lord, how long ! President Hayes errs in devoting so much of his time to office-seekers for their appeals should be made to the heads of the executive Departments and not to the President. The letter qf law says the President shall appoint, but its spirit points conclusively to the Cabinet office charged with the supervision of the appointee. Were a general in war times to bother and employ himself with the merest details he would soon find the enen#y shopping (lown upon him with irresistible force, ko with the President. The time devoted to petty postoffices and in listening to set speech es in behalf of men for whom toe coun try has not the slightest concer a, as they are not known outside of the mile square in which they deliver mail matter.should be devoted to National affairs, and the various secretaries should alone deter mine who shall draw the government pap at the Confederate Cross Roads, Baltimore, and all other similar impor tant places. In National affairs we in clude such matter £s listening to dele gations from Church bodies, ueh a quo as Button of Lynchburg Virginian recently headed. He was one who aid ed in securing the consolidation of the two branches of the Methodist Protes tant churches, and while filed with the fraternal spirit which wiped out the differences *yhich had separated these religious bodies, he addressed the Pres ident warmly upon the necessity of peace and harmony, etc. We aro confident that the Turk who will not trust his goods to a Christian would sooner risk his wares to Button’s honesty than ac cept his professions of Christianity after reading his diatribes against the Yankee and the Republican in the Daily Virgin ian. Hence his brotherly speech made in the White House arouses a bit of scepticism in our minds, and we wonder what next? We regret, though we do not complain, that Miss Van Lew, post mistress at Richmond, goes down in her i fight for her office. She has discharged her duties faithfully. But she holds a poiitjpft) office and must expect that po litical decapitation whiqlj js sure to come to the office holder sooner or later. She has held her place for eight years and should give way. How any parson can favor “civil service reform” after observ ing its effects here in Washington in the departments, is inexplicable. The gov ernment at all times needs new blood not only hare but throughout the coun try, and should establish the rule that gradual change must be the rule every where. Fred Douglass doubtless wishes he never had couveived the idea of de livering his late ill timed speech for every one both great aud small have been firing red-hot shots at him ever i since its delivery, and obi colored popu lation ara considerably alarmed at the prospect of the removal of cham pion. Several delegations of them have visited the White House to ask his re ? tention. Go for Wool, Mr, Hayes ! Washington aristocracy has been Out raged, slandered aud insulted, and dem ands vengeance. The Naval Monu ment now being erected in the Capitol front and nearly completed, promises to be the most attractive of the many in our City. Senator Blaine is still in the city. He is looking remarkably well, and from present appearances and re marks, bids fair to make things lively for the administration at the coming extra session of Congress. Junius. SENATOR MORTON AND THE PRESI DENT'S POLICY. The Indianapolis Journal publishes a letter of two colnms and a half from Senator O. P. Morton, in which he de fines his position on the President’s Southern policy. The following is a telegraphic synopsis of the maiu points in the letter. The opening paragraph is devoted to Kellogg and his claims to a seat in the Senate. Mr. Morton reviews the legisla tive action, and holds him to have been fairly elected. In a nut shell, it is that the Returning Board was a lawful body to declare who were the members of the Legislature, and how they made the declaration is of no weight. They did declare the members in the prescribed manner, and these elected Kellogg and Packard. The latter’s subsequent with drawal does not effect the former’s title. This leads Mr. Morton to say that the Republican Govermeuts ol Louisiana and South Carolina have yielded to force; have gone down before an armed and aggressive minority. The Government of the United States decided that there was no such state of insurrection as al lowed the interferauce of troops, and they were withdrawn. The blame is thrown on Gen. Grant. If he had promptly recognized Messrs. Packard and Chamberlain, who were lawfully elected, says Mr. Morton, President Hayes would have kept them in place. Gen. Grant did not do this, and Mr. Hayes has simply accepted the situation bequeathed to him on the 4th of March. He characterized President Hayes’ action as wise on the ground of expediency, not of right. The Democratic House of Represen tatives refused to make appropriations for the army and would have destroyed the army if President Hayes had used it in the South, and thus the President, according to Mr. Morton, yielded to the inevitable rather than to proceed only to inevitable defeat. The President’s Southern policy is thus by inference made a matter of necessity and not of virtue. On the heels of this, Mr. Mor ton asserts that he believes in President Hayes’ patriotism and high integrity, and in his undivided purpose to make his administration a beueiicience to the country. He does not believe he in tends to destroy the Republican party and build up another on its ruins. The remainder of the letter, about half of the whole, is devoted to a de fense of the principles of the Republi can party, an assertion of the reasons why it should not cease to exist, and a declaration that the intent and purpose of the Democracy is to override all dis tinctions between loyality and treason; to pay Southern claims, rebel debts, and the like. The Democratic majorities in the Southern States are asserted to be the direct result of armed force; that politi cal and civil rights there arc shams; that there is a large Republican majority in all those States, which dare not assert itself because it is weak and unarmed; that the Southern Democrats are solid to pay for rebel war property destroyed by our armies and will unite with any party that will bring this to pass; that there can be no peaee till the principles laid down and sought for by the Repub lican party are accepted all over the land. The last paragraph is as follows: “As the Democracy have acquired a solid South by force, the should acquire a solid North by vigilance and the eternal justice of their cause. North ern Republicans are now admonished that they can endure no division that will endanger their success. Should the North by unhappy discords, be divided, and thus fall a prey to a solid Confederate South, the rebellion will have bepn suppressed in vain, the fruits of the war will be lost, our last con dition worse than the first, ” Editors and Publishers’ Associ ation.—The annual Convention of the Editors and Publishers of Wisconsin, will be held in Milwaukee, commencing on Wednesday, June 13th, at 2p. m. President Geo. C. Ginty has announced the following programme; Annual Address, by ' Howard M. Kutchin, of The Fond du Lac Common wealth. Obituary address on the late Id. W. Ballou, by Colonel Charles D. llobin son, of the Green Bay Advocate; on the late M. Soheffler, P. V. Duester, Esq. of The ’Milwaukee £>ee Bote. Hon. Henry D. Barron, Judge of the Eleventh Circuit Court, one of the foun ders of the Association, and for a long time connected with journalism, will read a paper on the “Early Days of the Wisconsin Press.” In addition to these exercises, busi ness of great importance to every mem ber of the Association will come up, and a full attendance is earnestly requested. A Democratic paper in Georgia is anxious to have a constitutional conven tion, chiefly to have the word “rebel” stricken from the constitution. “We won’t ackuowdedge ourselves as being rebels in the lost cause. Those braves who died, as well as those who survived the late war, were as noble and true as ever breathed the air of heaven. We therefore want a conven tion, in qrder that that word might have no piaoe in the Constitution, We like the word patriot much better.” That is right; a constutioual convention ought by all means to be called, the word “rebel” stricken out, and “patriot” substituted, Vud if there should be occasion in tlu course of the constitution to speak of the people of the North, they might be termed rebel. Gov. Robinson, of New York, is the creature and tool that Tilden put on the Democratic State ticket when Horatio Seymour declined to pull chestnuts out of the flic for him. He understands that his duties as governor consist in obeying orders from Gramercy Park. Accordingly we see him vetoing an ap propriation to provide a frame for a. portrait of Lincoln in the State Library The ground that he placed his veto upon was that the appropriation was uncon stitutional, forgetting that he had only a short time before approved a bill to pur chase a bust of Washington. Could there be any meaner exhibition of nar row minded partisanship than is afforded by this action of the Democratic gov ernor of New York ? The eighteenth convention of the Wisconsin Sabbath Schools met at Osh kosh on Wednesday last week. The work of the convention embraced all matters which especially interest the welfare of the Sunday schools. Speech es were made by distinguished men, I and the proceedings throughout were characterize,! by an earnestness which | thorough wefk in that branch of the i 1.,0rd s vineyard. The deliberations of I the convention closed Thursday night with au immense meeting in the Oon-> j gregatioual Church. Racine is selected ; as the place of the next convention. BISMARCK’S RETURN. The return of Bismarck from Lis strategic retirement will not greatly as tonish those who have watched* the course of this adroit statesman. It is one of the ways to get quite out of sight, and out of mind if possible, when an emergency approaches—to say noth ing, do nothing and to lie waiting events with daugerspriugs. Probably itis safe to say that the Prussian statesman has long and clearly foreseen the entangle ment in which Russia and Turkey. Aus tria and Great Britain now find them selves. There are those who believe that he has not only foreseen but assist ed events, as Napoleon used to “correct destiny” at times. With or without help, destiny has placed the Russian armies on the Danube and in Armenia; has brought an independent crown to a German prince in Roumania, and a dec laration of war against Turkey; has alarmed Austria to the utmost for the safety of its Hungarian dominions, and has aroused the Government of Great Britain to vigorous and hasty prepar ations for interference, if Russia should threaten Constantinople, or India, or the Suez Canal. Each of these powers has its hands full. All the power that England has it will have to exert if it finds occasion for interference against Russia. Austria, at the utmost, can on ly fight for existance. Russia and Turkey, considering distance, moans of trausporatiou, the Turkish Defenses, the control of the Black Sea, the deadly climate of the Danubian provinces in the approaching Summer months, and the religious fanaticism to which the Turk appeals, are at least so evenly matched that no speedv and de cisive success is expected. The Euro pean Powers are entangled, for a time, at least, inextricably. Germany and France only are free as yet. But destiny, with or without aid, has placed France in the charge of a react ionary government. It is a government which is distrusted and hated by the most intelligent, active, and ardent por tion of the French people; a govern ment which finds itself compelled to disperse the representatives of the peo ple at the very outset, and to prepare with extraordinary vigor to defend itself by extreme use of its power in future elections; a government the very exis tence of which is a slur upon French history and an insult to the nineteenth century. France made Rome free; Rome now tries to enslave France. That the French people will not sustain such government with heartiness and unanimity, Bismarck knows well. To him, moreover, whose conflict with the Church party in Germany lias left some keen memories, this new rule in France seems the fruit of Jesuit plots, and its inevitable tendency hostility toGermany. That much if not all of this situation was foreseen, may be inferred from the remarkable speech of Mol the on the Army bill—a speech whicii§ startled Europe for the moment, but left no lasting impression only because Europe could see no sufficient occasion for it. Has Germany been waiting and prepar ing for precisely this opportunity, to deal with a French government which has not the hearty support of the French people, which can with difficulty sustain itself, and which may easily be regarded as a menace to theempire by which Jes uits were expelled? It is to be expected that telegrams will continue to assure us that there is significance in the return of Bismarck, and that Germany has not a single thought which is not of peace. Ger many has never been the dog that barks. Whether it means tq bite or not probably MacMahon and his new cleri cal and reactionary advisers would really like to know.— V. Y. Tribune. TAKE SEE ! Last Saturday evening when a young man of two and twenty stood before a widow who owned a house on Congress street east, she knew by his embarressed manner just what was coming, and she said; “William, I suppose you have sought this interview to tell me that you love my daughter Isabella?” “Y-yes, yes,” he gasped. “Well, William how are you fixed?” she sternly demanded. “Have you any houses and lands?” “N-not any.” “Have you any wealth in bank'?” “Not a copper.” “Have you any bonds and mort gages?” “Not a one,” he answered, as he con tinued to grow pale. “Young man!” she sternly resumed, “what have you got to offset the $20,000 which I shall give my daughter 5” “Nothing but love and—” “Too thin! Too thin!’ ’sheexclaimed, waving him away. “And I can sharpen lawn-mowers!” he shrieked as he backed off. “You can ?” “i can, and it won’t be over six weeks if they are good weeks for grass, before I’U see your daughter’s dowry and own a street railroad besides.” “Take her William—take her and be happy,” exclaimed the worldly woman, and the daughter has been “took.” — Detroit Free Press. Fletcher Harper, of the famous publishing house of Harper Brothers, is dead. He was the last survivor of the brothers of the old house, and though the firm name will no doubt be contin ued, it will be so done in the interest of the heirs of the deceased brothers. The firm of Harper Brothers was organized in 1825, and soon became the leading publishing house in America. In 1853 their establishment occupied nine con tiguous buildings in Cliff and Pearl streets. In December of that year their entire establishment was destroyed by fire involving a loss of over §1,0U0,000. But before the ruins of the fire could be cleared away, the plans for anew buil ding were prepared, cohering about half an acre of ground, extending from Cliff street tc Franklin Square in Pearl street and seven stories high. The building is fire proof, and is to day the most com plete publishing establishment in the world. Over 1000 employes are engaged about the premises. Fletcher Harper was bqrn in 1806.
