A FEW rOINTS FOR REPUBLICAN
VOTERS TO CONSIDER.
One of our morning contemporaries, pre
vious to the meeting of the conventions,
urged the importance of making good nomi
nations, but at the same time announced its
intention of supporting the regular ticket,
no matter what names wero upon it. Asa
matter of course the wire-pullers were not
frightened to any given extent, and the re
gular Republican ticket, which, true to its
promise, our contemporary is now earn
estly advocating, is chiefly remarkable
for containing the names of bat two or three
men who are at all worthy of the public con
fidence. What value the arguments and ap
peals of a paper that has guaranteed in ad
vance to support any nomination that might
be made can have with intelligent men, we
are unable to understand; and as the ran& and
file of the Republican party have never yet
given their adhesion to the old Democratic
doctrine that it is the duty of every member
of the party to vote for the Devil if
be is the regular nominee, it is to
be hoped that they will not do
so at this late day. Scratching has always
been considered rather a virtue thau
otherwise in the Republican ranks, and the
operations of the scratchors have done more
to preserve the purity of the party than any
other influence. Men who yield their indi
vidual judgment, who permit themselves to
blindly follow wherever certain politicians
may choose to lead them, and who at every
election vote whatever ticket is placed in
their hands without inquiry as to the fitness
of the candidates, have about as much influ
ence as so many logs of wood, and logs of
wood are about as capable of appreciating
the responsibilities that devolve upon citi
zenship. It is the independent voters who
make it a rule to scratch liberally when there
is necessity for it, and who resolutely refuse
to vote for corrupt men, who really hold the
balance of power; and we sincerely hope thut
the noble army of scratchers will be out in
force at the next election, unless some radical
changes are made in the Republican ticket
between now and October.
This morning our contemporary above
referred to oilers to its readers a
number of reasons why the Republi
can voters of Philadelphia should
vote for the whole ticket, and it suggests that
from complete harmony complete viotory will
follow. We concur tin this last propo
sition, but there will be neither complete
harmony in the Republican party, nor will it
achieve complete viotory, with a tioket for the
most part made up of names of notoriously
corrupt end incompetent men. Befose the
nominations were made we pointed out the
way to victory when we urged that the best
men of the Republican party should be put
up for the offices to be filled in October, and
if this had been done the triumph of the Re
publican ticket would have been assured.
Our contemporary asks, "What good can
any Republican hope to accomplish by voting
against this ticket?" The answer to this
naive question is very easy so easy, indeed,
that we wonder it did not ooour to the writer
of the article in question. The answer is, that
by so doing they will probably prevent the
nomination of such a ticket next year, for
our contemporary is totally mistaken when it
states that the ticket represents the wishes of
forty thousand Republicans of all races and
classes. It is a well-known fact that the nomi
nations were set up inadvance, and that the
delegate elections were so manipulated that
there was absolutely no choice, and the men
who arranged the nominations on the you-tiekle-me-and-1'll-tickle-you
principle evi
dently have a very poor opinion of the intelli
gence of the average Republican voter, or
they would be very shy of making any refer
ences to the manner in which the nomina
tions were made.
Two other of the queries of our contempo
rary contain suggestions of importanoe, and
they deserve to be looked into, as they con
tain the gist of the whole matter. They
are aa follows:
"Does anybody expect to improve the finan
cial condition of Philadelphia by eleoting poli
ticians to take charge of the city government
who belong to the party that plunged the
nation into bankruptcy before the Rebellion,
and covered Pennsylvania with debt ?
"Is there a Republican in Philadelphia who
does not know that the defeat of the Repub
lican party In the comic g eleotion will be to
give over this city to the imitators of Tarn
many in New York, where the rights of per-
Bon and of property are openly defied ?"
To the first of these questions we will
reply by asking one:
"Does anybody expect to improve the
financial condition of Philadelphia by eleoting
politicians who are notoriously corrupt, and
who only make ase of the machinery of the
Republican party to promote their own ad
vancement and to secure opportunities for
plunder 't
There are honett men outside of the Re
publican organization, and if the Damocrats
only Lave the wisdom to nominate such a
ticket as they can nominate if they will, they
will both deserve and receive the support of
citizens who think that an honest and
economical administration of the city govern
mint is a matter of the very highest im
portance. With regard to the second query, we answer
that many Republicans know that the ticket
offered for their acceptance is for the most
part made up of the names of men who are
watching the performances of "Boss" Tweed
and bis confreres with unooncoaled envy, and
who long for an opportunity to establish a
Tammany government in Philadelphia. Some
of them were the originators and the promi
nent supporters of the infamous commission
bills introduced at the last session of the
legislature, and if they are elected to fill
valuable offices next October, it may be con
sidered as certain that the commission
schemes will be revived in some shape or
other, and with a fair prospect of success.
The Tammany ring of New York professes to
be Democratic, but that is only for the pur
pose of securing those who always vote the
etrigbt Democratic ticket no matter what
names may be upon it. la point of fact,
the Tammany ring is a no-party organization:
its only principle is plunder, and it makes
use of men of all parties to accomplish its
ends. Are the voters of Philadelphia willing
to risk having the government of Philadel
phia modelled after that of New York by
electing the objectionable characters who
have forced themselves upon the Republican
ticket? If they are not, they have .but one
course to adopt, and that is to cast their votes
for decent men, if any are put up, no matter
what their political principles may be; and a
crushing defeat of the present ring ticket will
do more to secure good nominations and a
Republican victory next year than anything
that could happen.
A GRATEFUL ESTIMATE OF WEST
ro INT!
We had almost thought that one of a con
temporary's "fancies" had strayed into its
"facts" when we first alighted on its late
estimate of West Point, but, looking more
closely, we found it to be a fact grimmer
than even any of its fancies. "West Point,"
says our contemporary, "should be either
thoroughly reformed or else put out of exist
ence; for ourselves, we care very little which.
If we cannot have a better managed national
academy than the present, we had better have
none at all." Hoity-toity! how ruthless is
the possessor of unlimited power! But it
strikes us, if we may be permitted to think,
that if our contemporary's lost proposition,
with its implication of posrible reform in the
institution, be granted, there is very little
good temper and sense in our contemporary's
saying that it cares very little whether or not
the institution is put out of existence. Is
the hitch in the writing or in right thinking ?
We find it asserted that "if there is any set
of persons in the United States who thoroughly
misunderstand their own position, it is the
cadets at West Point." Now we should not,
just at the present speaking, be willing to
affirm that, for we are inclined to think that
one who sets out dogmatically to teach, and
finds himself taught, is in about the falsest
position in which one can be placed, and in
that position is our contemporary.
These young men of Went Point, continues
our contemporary, are educated and salaried at
the public expense, and being treated with so
much liberality, all that is asked of them in
return is to be "orderly, gentlemanly, and
loyal." Really, to judge by the way this is
put, one should suppose that we were speak-
iug of some eleemosynary institution. But
what is the fact? To quote the words of
General Cullum, the painstaking and aoourate
compiler of "The Biographical Register of
the Officers and Graduates of the
United States Military Academy," 'The
nation maintains the Military Academy for its
own, and not jor the graduates' interest." It
seems rather ridiculous to mention that, but
some people are not well informed as to the
Government's object. Is nothing expected
of them but to be "orderly, gentlemanly, and
loyal?" A great deal more is expected, and
received, too. A cadet pledges himself to
serve in the army for a certain time after
graduating, and so strong is the force of pre
cedent which honor has established and abided
by, that it is extremely rare for a graduate of
West Point to resign his commission until he
has served long enough to repay by his ser
vices all that he has received.
"Ab to loyalty," still continues our contem
porary "the country has not yet forgotten
that every Southern cadet deserted his colors,
and sided with the Rebels, even though his
own State might be nearly divided." Hear
General Cullum: "Of those officers ap
pointed in the army from civil life nearly
one-half, while but a little over one-fifth of
the West Point officers, left the service and
joined the rebellion." Can Harvard, Yale,
Columbia, Union, Princston, or any other
college in the land show a higher record of
patriotism and sacrifice ? Assuredly not: for
their Southern graduates espoused the Rebel
cause almost en masse. And is it
it just to launch anathemas at the
Military Academy which saved by the
antidote of its loyal teaobing one-half of its
Southern pupils, who, from infancy to early
manhood, before they entered this our truly
national institution, had imbibed the poison
of secession till the virus bad permeated
every fibre of their hearts and brains? That
noble band of one hundred and sixty-two
Southern graduates, cradled and reared in
State allegiance, but rescued from treason by
West Point influences, bravely battled against
rebellion, and no less firmly against every
appeal of relative and friend to swerve them
from loyalty and duty. These, with all
Northern officers (save sixteen who dishonored
their Alma Mater; and one hundred and ten
graduates from civil life who rejoined the
military service, fought the good fight for the
Union."
Now what is the ostensible cause of all this
hullabaloo about the Academy? The hazing
t f ceded by cadets. We do not deny tha
having is reprehensible, and, believing so, we
reprehend it. But are we in cocsequence to
indulge in, to countenance, or to maintain
pilence under the infliction of a sweeping
tirade against the Academv? The opinion of
those most favorably situated to form an
opinion is that to West Point, with all its
faults, is due, directly or indirectly, what
ever military success and prestige we enjoy
the very integrity of the republic. The
estimate of the people at largo holds
that the graduates of West Point are
as a class remarkable for ability, refinement,
culture, and integrity. The young graduate
leaves the Academy a little too stiff in his gait,
his cap a little too much a-cock, and with a
little too much conceit within it; but ishe
essentially different from the civilian gra
duate ? He is in that phase a cub, which,
like all other cubs, the world is to try to lick
into shape; and in his case, the world, having
generally good material to work upon, gene
rally succeeds in the attempt. Well did the
superintendent of the Academy say, "Boys
will be boys," to which we add, Would that
such a rule applied also to men!
THE FORT WARDENS RILL.
Br a communication which appears in another
column, it will be seen that we were led into
a serious error yesterday in our comments
upon the supplement to the law relating to
the Port Wardens, because we innocently sup
posed that the Secretary of the Board of
Trade had good authority for his statement,
that an enormous fee was henceforth to be
exacted from every little fchallop entering the
port of Philadelphia. It appears that Secre
tary Perkins has magnified a fee of one
dollar and fifty cents into the astounding
aggregate of one hundred and fifty dollars;
and it is alleged, further, that the new bill
makes no increase whatever of the fees
hitherto collttttd, its object being merely to
ensure prompt reports of vessels arriving, so
that complete statistical tables may be pre
pared, and that confusion in the harbor and
evasions of laws intended to guurd the health
of the city may be prevented. Under these
circumstances we feel bound to apologize to
the gentlemen whom we attacked, and to
inform our readers that the statement of the
Secretary of the Board of Trade, on which
our article of yesterday was based, was incor
rect in its most essential particulars.
It appears by an Associated Press despatch
from "Washington that the aggregate deficit
in the accounts of the Collectors of Iuterna
Revenue reaches nearly three millions of dol
lars, more than one-third of this sum being
due by collectors residing in the State of
Louisiana, whose large defalcations are attri
buted to the cumbrous machinery provided
for the collection of taxes on cotton. It is
said that a large portion of the sums due the
Government will be collected from the bonds
men of the defaulters during the present
year, and it is to be hoped that this anticipa
tion will be realized. In view of the immense
amounts already paid into the National Trea
sury as produots of internal revenue, the de
ficits in the loyal States are comparatively
small; but it is right that the claims of the
Government should be rigidly collected in
every instance, so that tax-payers may at
least have the satisfaction of knowing that
the Bums exacted from tbem have all fouud
their way into the national coffers instead of
the pockets of plundering politicians.

Cable telegrams announce that tens of thousands

pose, but to let them come, and though they have
behaved of late as If they all needed "straight
Jackets," we will clothe them In graceful and cheap

make them harmless aDd peaceable citizens.
