THE PRESIDENT AND THE
, COPNTRY.
The President has done the right
thing in nreepting the ehallenge of
Mr. CoNi(i.iso a, he did in .his with,

Lions say.,!the only one to which t, ; 11.

But if the l'resident has done right
in withdrawing the names of Mr.

!
In - nominating then' at .all ? That

~, -~ ,
questioni i !; undergoing some discus

the l'resident',(ll4l light in both in
stances. lie was known to be op
posed to faction ll:4hts in the party,
and it Was his duty as the elected
chief of his party to make an effort
to compose the dill,-rences which ex
isted. That this 7 . as his object in
making the New York nominations
cannot be_donlitell. Ile intended to
recognize Mr. etisl“..i.N , : as a promi

he at the same tinie distinctly' an

The President therefore did Wisely
to recognize Senator CeNKLI n as a
prominent leader in the Republican
party. But in refusing to' permittim
to dictate the e.ereise of the Presi
dent's prerogative the President gave
all men to under.4t4nil , that no man
caulk so-great ;IS the party: The
Republican party is greater than any
•
man or any thousand men in it. The
greater can never defer to the less
in politics or anything else. Had the
President sought a quarrel the case
world be different. But he did not
seek a quarrel. lie sought to ignore
a mere faction fight. Had 11r. CONK
LING been wise he-lcOuld have recog
nized that the
. President must •be,
President in fact as well ps in name
and he would bay_e convaled-hissdis
satisfaction. forth° sake of dedency.
Ifut in -all his public life Mr. CONE
LINO has never been able to recognize
any Republican party beyond hire
self and a few of his friends. Hi p s
policy has been to patronizei-the sab,
missive and deferential and to avenge
himself upon the recalcitrant. :;11r.
