FOll PRESIDENT:
JAMES A. GARFIELD,
'Of Ohio.
FOB TICK PHK8IDBNTJ
CHESTER A. ARTHUR,
Of New York.
Til Jen declines to be interviewed upon
the subject of the Cincinnati nomina
tions. ___________
Tlie Cincinnnti convention tabled a
resolution giving to each territory a
member of the national committee.
Indiana was hissed when, after voting
for Hendricks on the last ballot, it rose
to move that the vote for Hancock be
made unanimous. Indiana will remem
ber those hisses in November.
The Watertown News enters upon its
second volume with anew dress and the
most encouraging prospects for future
property. For a yearling it is in the en
joyment of excellent patronage and it
returns the compliment by doing well
by its readers.
Iowa, always a great state politically,
has achieved additional renown. One ol
its delegates stuck to Tilden to the last
and he stands alone in the Tilden col
umn of the final ballot. His twenty-one
stubborn companions from that state
persisted in going with the crowd for
Hancock.
English, the. democratic nominee for
the vice-presidency has a canal record,
though he never drove a mule along the
bank nor steered a boat. His uncle was
once a candidate for treasurer of the Illi
inois and Michigan canal and was defeat
ed. This fact will enable the democracy
to hold even with the republicans on the
canal record busines.
The first effort of the democracy of
Yankton to wave the bloody shirt was
not a graceful success. In Saturday
night's meeting it was tried by several
speakers who lindn't got the hang of the
the garment and its ways. The versatile
Spink, not having quite outlived his re
publican habits, handled it with moie
agility than the others.
It is hoped that the tail piece of the
democratic ticket will mollify the bour
bon element into an acceptance of a
loyal man as its candidate for president.
Mr. English was a rank copperhead, and
during the war was bitterly opposed to
Governor Morton's efforts to furnish sol
diers with which to enable Hancock and
other generals to whip the rebels.
John Kelly's measure of Hancock:
"He is handsome, lias a commanding fig
ure, conies from a good family and is a
gentleman in every way. While he is
rather reserved, he has excellent social
(rgr^otiiile witli everybody." These are
supposed to comprise the elements of
democratic statesmanship this year.
Hancock is to run in New York on his
shape and Kelly says in a mild way that
he will carry the state, but Kelly is not
right down in earnest about it.
A correspondent of the Chicago Inter
Ocean, in his account of the final stam
pede for Hancock in the Cincinnati con
vention, gives the following account of
the manner in which Indiana was coerced
into a recognition of the nominee:
When the silken banners of the several states
were carried forward by the excited delegates
and grouped around the portrait of Hancock
only Indiana's banner was lacking. The hoosier
state stood faithfully bv Hendricks when the
supporters of all the other candidates had gone
over to the choice of the majority. A delegate
seized the standard and attempted to bear it
forward with the rest. An Indianaian snatched
it from him, and a fight ensued for its posses
sion. Finally, torn and hanging upside
down to
its staff, it was captured by the Hancock men
and swung triumphantly into position in front
of the platform.
The gathering of the democrats at
Turner liall Saturday night for the pur
pose of ratifying the late Cincinnati
nominations was productive of those
painful efforts to which men are given
when they are not well up on their sub
ject. The democratic speakers need time
to study the new idea and it was wicked
to precipitate this occasion before they
had looked over their lesson books. The
desultory fire from the
stage was tiresome
in the extreme. Dr. Duis was the only
one who created a sensation—he succeed
ed in clearing the hall in about ten
minutes after beginning his speech. For
another ten minutes he talked to empty
benches while the Lomeward hurrying
crowd mentally thanked him for giving
them a good excuse for leaving the
room.
With the return of the Sioux chief
tains comes the announcement tliat the
negotiations for railroad right of way
across the Sioux reservation ended in a
failure. The Indians demanded in pay
ment for this privilege ten thousand
head of cattle, ftud the railroad compa
nies concluded the price was too high
and dropped the bnsiness. Bed Cloud
was not in the humor to make conces
sions. He had complains to make about
the agent at Pine Ridge, and seemed to
think he could secure a new agent as a
portion of the contract. The Chicago &
Northwestern railroad company pur
chased from the Indians a section of,
land for town site purposes, on the west
side of the Missouri, to be located when
the company decides where it will make
its crossing. This purchase includes the
privilege of a wagon road from the cross
ing to intersect the Pierre road to the,
Hills, provided the company should de
cide not to cross at Pierre. The Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St. Paul company
has concluded that it is unnecessary to
negotiate with the Indians for right of
way across the reservation, claiming
that under the treaty of 1876, they will
be permitted to build through the Bionx
country. The clause in the treaty under
which the right of way is olaimed reads
follows:
The said Indians also agree and aonwnt that
wagon ami other roads, not exceeding three in
number, ma*, b®. constructed and maintained
froiuDonvenient and acc«*sible point* on the
Missouri, throath said reservation »o th. ooria
try Wing immediately wort thereof. upon such
routes as ahall Be dcaiinated by the president of
tlmUiiited States.
1
Monday Evening, Jnne 28. 1880.
There can hardly be any other con
struction of this olause than that it gives
permission for tho construction of three
railroads through the reservation. Two
roads have already been located nnd
used as wagon roads, and the third is still
to be designated bv the president. It
would be better to obtain a ronewal of
this permission of the Indians than to
run into their country without it. They
have only a vague comprehension of the
contents of a treaty or of the importance
of their signatures thereto and will not
be disposed to peacefully comply with
their own agreement now that an attempt
has been made to negotiate anew with
them.
The Springfield Times estimates that
the population of Dakota is increasing at
the rate of 20,000 per month. Its esti
mate is based upon the number of acres
of land entered each month during the
present spring and summer. Though
these figures are large they are not out
side the range of ordinary possibility.
Dakota lias an eastern and southern bor
der nearly eight hundred miles in extent
and from these two sides immigration
flows into our territory. At no one point
along this great length of border is the
magnitude of the rush observable. Each
neighborhood is aware of its own acces
sions, but can scarcely comprehend that
there are thousands of other neighbor
hoods experiencing like growth. The
census will reveal figures which will sur
prise many, but it will not begin to tell
the story of Dakota's wonderful growth.
It is being taken too early in the season
for that. The enumerators can go back
over their tracks within a month aud add
largely to their lists. It would be better
were the census taken later, because upon
its figures depend division and the ad
mission of one or both of its parts.
As regards the military record of the
two men, Gen. Hancock and Mr. Garfield
may be regarded as standing on the same
platform. Their military records are
perhaps equally good. But, while one
stands on nothing but military record,
the other has gained his widest repute
as one of the foremost among the ablest
of our living statesmen. The nomina
tion of a soldier with a good war record,
whose fidelity to the national cause is
unassailable, will go far to suppress
any bloody-shirt" character of the
canvass. "'The rejection of Mr. Til
den takes the hypocritical "fraud is
sue" out of the combat. What re
mains There remain the important
political questions that have been raised
by the action, or attempted reaction, of
this congress. Upon these political
questions it is now more than ever
likely the presidential canvass will be
conducted. Evidently, in such a con
troversy the party that has taken for
its leader a statesman who has shown
himself to be one of its very ablest lead
ers, will enter the contest with an impor
tant advantage over the party that has
passed by all its statesmen and taken
for its standard-bearer a soldier with no
experience or known faculty of political
leadership.
Therefore it is that the nomination of
General Hancock is a mistake, if not a
blunder. He is not the man for leader
of a political party in this, or in any
other, political emergency.
Mr. Win. H. English, nominated for
vice president, is an old Indiana politi
cian of the Kansas-Nebraska excitement
period, who seconded Donglas and oth
ers,in repealing the Missouri compromise,
and afterward gave aid and icomfort to
Mr. Buchanan in his "Lecompton con
stitution" crusade. He was the author
of the measure known &s the "English
bill," by the passage of which the dead
lock between the president and the
country was broken, and the offensive
Lecompton constitution submitted to a
vote of the Kansas people. Buchanan
approved the bill in the belief that the
Lecompton instrument oonld be "voted
belief undoubtedly passed,
a£a probably inspired the English bill
Btiohanan was particularly jubilant
over its passage, whioh was the signal
for that memorable contest in Kansas, be
tween southern "border rafflras" and
northern "Shaip's-rifle abolitionists,"
whioh was the bloody prelude to the
southern rebellion. It was his relation
ship to that eventful chapter in our
history that brought Mr. English into
conspicuity. Since then he has not
been politically conspicuous, though a
citizen of more than average abilities.
THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE.
His Military Strength a Noll rep of I*olit
teat Weakness.
Chicago Inter-Oooan, 25tli.
The national democratic convention
yesterday nominated the man for presi
dent who was beaten by Seymour in
1868, by Greeley in 1872, and by Tilden
in 1876. General Hancock has been a
standing democratic) candidate for presi
de ut ever since, the defeat of MbCIellih
in 1864. He, in his person, reputation
and fame, represents the same element
that forced tne nomination of McClcllan
in 1864, and his nomination now is but a
return to the Veneering policy of that
campaign.
lellau was nominated in the face
of the violent protest of the copperheads
of Ohio and Maryland, and he received
only twenty-one electoral votes out of a
total of '233. In the convention of 1868,
Hancock fell naturally in the line of suc
cession, but the experience with a mili
tary"
candidate had been so disastrous
that the convention, abandoning the
veneering policy, went back to first
Eon,
A DEMOCRATIC MISTAKE.
Hancock, Though a Military Chieftain, is
not Sttttesumii—Garfleld Is llotli.
Chicago Times, 25th.
Like the Chicago convention, the Cin
cinnati convention, in a sudden out
break of spontaneity, has taken itself and
the country by surprise. The nomina
tion of General Hancock was neither ex
pected nor intended. Like the nomina
tion of Garfield, it was made without
premeditation or deliberation. Also,
like tlie nomination of Garfield, it is per
haps a more commendable outcome than
would have resulted from deliberate par
ty selection. It is, at all events, a for
tunate escape from Tilden, upon which
the party is to be congratulated.
But it is not a nomination that can be
said to fulfill the party's opportunity. It
never had a more favorable opportunity
to bring to the front a new political
leader one who would give promise of
leading the party iflit of the old political
graveyard and onward to a new and
Jiopeftil future of political activity. Gen.
Hancock has furnished no evidence of
good capacity for political leadership.
As the Times' said of him yesterday, he
is nothing but a soldier, aud not a very
brilliant one at that. Educated for
the profession of arms, he has
alwavs ....-tt'vrf OlfUU t'gtfuantry dur
ing the civil war to the rank of a major
general: though he never held an inde
pendant command, and never gained a
victory.- It was when commander of the
military district of New Orleans, in 1867,
that he* chietly gained public note by the
tenor of his military orders, declaring
that the tme function of the military,
after armed rebellion had been put down,
was to uphold the civil power in the nor
mal exercise, of its functions. This, he
said, would be the guiding principal of
his action but he at the same time an
nounced that any forcible obstruction of
the law.i would be "instantly suppressed
by arms." These orders were put forth
with a good deal of declamatory flourish
about "free institutions" and "the great
principles of American liberty a style
of superfluous magniloquence that great
ly ticKled the effusive southerners, and
led them to regard General Hancock as a
northern man with southern ideas."
Ever since, the southern politicians have
been favorably inclined toward him as a
presidential possibility—a circumstance
not likely to strengthen his candidacy at
the north. His name was brought before
tlie convention of 1876, but the ob
jection of presenting a man who was
nothing but a soldier in opposition
to one who, though also nothing
but a soldier, was a more famous one,
caused it to be received with little favor.
It was then believed to be the true poli
cv of the party to present an eminent
civilian, of known capacity for political
leadership. The foundation of that be
lief was good in 1868, and is equally good
now. It the party at Cincinnati had ful
filled its opportunity, it would have cho
sen for its leader a statesman, not a mere
soldier.
rinciples and nominated that old Bour
Horatio Seymour. The campaign
was made on the theory that a military
man was dangerous to the country.
Seymour received 71 electoral votes to
214 for Grant.
In the convention of 1872 Hancock was
Eain
mentioned, but the hook was bait
with Greeley, an old republican, and
again the democratic campaign was made
on the idea of hostility to a military can
didate. Mr. Greeley carried six states,
62 electoral votes, and Grant re
286 electoral votes.
Discouraged bv this experiment the
convention of 18f6 tnrned again to Bour
bonism and nominated Tilden. In 1880
the party that McClellan in 1864, Sey
mour in *1868, Greeley in 1872, and Tilden
in 1876, decides witli remarkable unani
mity to call out the reserve candidate in
the person of General Hancock, and, in
so doing, decides to abandon the war
cries of the last three campaigns.
The men who opposed Grant because
he was a military ifian are now asked to
vote for Hancock, not because he ever
framed or supported a democratic meas
ure, but because he is a noted soldier.
The men who raised the cry of
110
military
candidate when Garfield was nominated,
are commanded now to catch step, and
declare they always wanted a military
leader.
The democratic party, despairing of
success under the old flag of Bourbomsm,
hopes to sneak into power under cover
of Hancock's military record. Fearing
repudiation at the hands of the people,
the solid south puts forward Hancock
just as the anti-war or peace-at-any-price
democrats did McClellan in 1864.
It will not do. Hancock cannot change
the spirit of the democratic party. He
cannot stretch his splendid record as a
soldier, as he would a mantle, to cover all
the sins of his party. His work at Get
tysburg, placed side by side with the
work of the democrats in congress, makes
a painful contrast. Principles and mo
tives come to the front-, and leave the
candidate in the rear. The party that
nominates him is the party that made
the fiftht aga^ytye Tfie
White League and the rifle clubs in the
south is the party that bulldozed and
disfranchised the colored people in
Alabama, Mississippi, South Carolina
and Louisiana. Hancock may lend him
self to the party just as McClellan did,
but he cannot alter its record, change its
purpose, modify its programme, or save
it from defeat. His fame as a union gen
eral weighs little against the domination
of men like Wade Hampton, Hamburg
Buttler, Ben Hill, and others of that
class.
The nomination is a weak one, not be
cause the man is not strong in his way,
but because the rank and file of the par
ty never have been in sympathy with
him, and will not support him! His
name will have no talismauic influence
among the Bourbon herds in New York
city, and will not call out the old golden
circle men in Indiana. The fact of his
nomination being in the nature of a con
cession to the strength of the republican
candidate will aid the republicans in
making telling points against his party.
His personal record, standing in contrast
with the record of the party leadeis who
push him to the front, is in the nature
of a finger-board directing public atten
tion to the principles at stake in the
contest. The spectacle of even so reput
able a soldier as General Hancock play
ing cat to pull the chestnuts of tfie
democratic monkey out of the fire may
grieve the people in the old loyal states,
but it will not excite their sympathv, or
turn them aside from the merits of the
contest.
Hancock is simply a new experiment
of a party that has tried many schemes
for deceiving the people. He may carry
the solid south, simply because the old
confederate leaders will it. But he will
lose Indiana and New York, because as
against the legislative aud other govern
mental experience of Gen. Garfield, he
has only his military record to present to
men who have professed for sixteen
years to be violently opposed to all mili
tary men.
On one side is General Garfield tho
roughly identified with the principles
and measures of the republican party.
On the other side is the hgure-liead,
Hancock, making a vain endeavor to di
vert attention from the measures aud
principles ofhis party. It is a fight for
principle, and men of principle will fight
it to the end. Garfield is just the man to
put republican principles to the front in
away to attract attention, while Han
cock is not the man to turn public atten
tion away from democratic policy.

A Weak Tteket Nominated at Clnclaaati—
Varioaa KatlHrsUinw Meetings.
Cincinnati, JuncSHL-—The impression
to-day, immediately lftfter the nomination
of Hanoook and English, was that tho
ti«ket was very strong one. 8a it
seemed to,ev6iy one with whom I talked
but now, only siK.houra after thedose of
,'the convention, it begins to appear that
it is otherwise.' In the enthnaisim of the
moment, when the solid south came to
the front in support of the union soldier
as an olive branch of peace, it seemed
that the north oould hot refuse to acoept,
and that "this "ticket "thus presented dt
the south, with no s^in upon the mans
character, would meet with universal ap
proval,-but I find there are very serious
obstacles in, the way, .so serious that suc
cess seems 'very doubtful.' With the en
thusiasm of-the moment forgotten and"
the feeling "among ^delegates carefully
canvassed, I find 'that "there is a great
deal of bitternMftn a' certain element of
the party in an elementf"
andwitnoin
loSft tfhlch'itS' sTOcoajisnot pos
sible. The faqf is Hancock,is a represen
tative of the an'ti-Tilran element of the
country. Most Tilden faieri Ihave recog
nized this. The south has
.since the last
presidential ftampaignbean reoognized as
anti-Tilden. It was tlie south that' nom
inated Hanoook. It was Hancock's warm
est supporters) and loudest talkers who
most earnestly .favored {he admission of
Tammany tW.: Hubbard of Texas, one
of Hancock's leaders, spoke for Tammany
in the convention yesterday, and Was ser
enaded by the Kelljr giuig last. night.
To-day, after the nomination of Hancock,
Kelly was marched up to the platform
and received into the bosom of the party,
to the disgust of the Tilden men, who
had all along opposed Hanoook, and was
forthwith presented to the world as a re
turned prodigal, more honored than those
who had staid at home and fonght the
battles, and the fatted calf was ordered
killed for him and bis. In short, it seems
to be Tammany and 'the south against
the genuine idemocjaevof New Xork,
headed by Tfl'deii and the north. The
bitterness among the Tilden people is
very great. They recognize the fact that
it was the Bouth that defeated their can
didate, and they also recognize, the fact
that witlioiit New'York the south'cannot
elect its man. From what I can gather
to-day I predict tliat the support of the
Hancock and English ticket by Tilden
democrats will be anything but cordial
indeed it is not certain they will support
it. It is probable that they will give a
nominal consent to it, but without the
recognized vigorous work of the genuine
democracy of New York the ticket can
not carry that state, and I don't believe
it will have that support. I met Mayor
Wickham, of New York, who has beeu a
well known leader of the Tilden element
at the Grand hotel. to-night. He was
preparing to leave for New York, not in
anything but cheerful mood. I asked
him -what, he thought of .the nomination.
He shrugged lu^'BnOUjdWTS and with an
absent kiritf ftf air remarked that' he
guessed it would do. "Will it heal dis
sensions in New York I asked. "Well,'
he replied, "they say it will, and we must
believe what
'hey Bay."
"The ticket will
carry New York, of course?" I said.
"Yes," he said, "I think it will," but in
such a way as to show that he didn't
think anything of the kind. Later I met
Gen. Faulkner, who was one of Tilden's
managers here, and asked him about the
situation. He admitted that it was very
bad, especially in regard to New York
state. Said he:
I hope the dissensions will heal, but
there is a good deal of ill-feeling among
the regulars now.
Has Gen. Hancock the necessary funds
to carry on the campaign
No, I think not, he answered.
Where are tliev to come-from?
I don't know, he replied, in a gloomy
""In "tlie south everybody is happy. I in
terviewed Gov. McEuery of Louisiana,
Gen. Wheeler of cavelry fame, from Ala
bama, Col. Phil. Thompson of Kentucky,
Judge Chenowith of Texas, and a num
ber of others, and found them fairly wild
with delight. There is no doubt Han
cock will have a solid south. Said one
intelligent business man to-night:
"I don't believe Hancock will carry a
single northern state."
"Why?" I asked.
"Well," he said, "there are no issues of
importance between ,Oie parties. The
New York regulars are disgusted and
won't help in the fight. The Irish apd
Germans will be opposed to Hancock for
his record while in charge in the District
of Columbia. The volunteer soldiers
have no great love for liim, for he is and
was a regular army officer, a man who
fights for money, with whom money ser
vice is a profession, and who fought for
the north as a lawyer fights for his client,
because he was paid for it. There is a
vast difference between volunteering to
fight for one's country and fighting for
it because one is a professional fighter
and wants employment. No one recog
nizes this quickly and readily as the vol
unteer soldiers which the army was made
of."
Burlington, Iowa, June 25.—The city
has broken but enthusiastically in a rati
fication of the nomination of Hancock
and English. The returning Iowa dele
gation was met at the depot by a band
and escorted to a temporary stand at the
corner of Main and Jeffenion streets,
where a crowd of about 1,500 had assem

Judge H. H. Trimlile of BloomftelU, J.
D. M. Hamilton of Fort Madison, D. M.
