The Grant Boom.
It is very easy to ridicule the Grant
'•boom ;"it is still easier to under-estimate
it. Gen. Grant has some .elements of
strength that no one else in the United
States possesses. He is probably the
second choice of the most notable candi
dates, Senator Conkliug, Senator Blaine,
and possibly Secretary Sherman ; his three
years' absence has effaced from public
memoray the errors of his administration,
while its good fruits remain uueffaced
and ineffaceable; his public receptions
abroad have considerably added to his
popularity at home, for it is a weakness
of the American people, which they have
not yet outgrown, to over-estimate for
eign judgments and uuder-estimate their
own; we had even to send Mr. Moody
abroad before we would crown him our
selves : his past history renders him
above all other men the representative of
Nationality, and the election of no other
man would be so decisive a notice to the
South that the North intends to preserve
at every hazard that authority of the cen
tral government which it fought through
four years to maintain; at the same time
there is no Northern man whose election
would be more readily acquiesced in by
theiSouth; and, Anally on certain great,
though at this junction measurably sub
bordinate issues Gen. Grant has been uui
formily in sympathy with the great body
of the American people: the honest pay
ment of all debts, individual, State, Na
tional ; the maintenance in a high degree
of efficiency of the public school system ;
the governmental control, by State or Na
tion, or both, of the great railroad corpo
rations ; justice and equal rights to all
foreign races, whether Irish, German,
African or Chinese; the civil rights and
the education of the Indians, and the pro
tection of the rights of property from the
lawlessness of Communism. The latest
indication of unexpected strength is in
the South; there are reported from vari
ous sources indications that he would lie
the most acceptable Northern Republican
to Southean Democrats, and might even
command a considerable white vote. The
talk about a "non-partisan candidate" is
of course nonsense, if by that is meant a
non-party candidate; for the President
of the United States must he elected by a
party and represent its principles; but it
is doubtful whether any strong Republi
can candidate could be found who
would be less obnoxious to the Demo
cratic party. Meanwhile the "silent
man" preserves his silence on the question
whether in any event he will be a candi
date or not.— Christian Union.
Governor Cullom has appointed Robert
T. Lincoln, of Chicago, a son of President
Lincoln, as one of the three trustees of
the Illinois Central Railroad Company,
to succed Morris Ketchum, of New-York
recently deceased. These trustees hold
the legal little to all of the company's
property under its charter.
Butler township, near Scranton, had a
family consisting of Charles Gordon, two
daughters and one son. On Christmas
morning all were single. That day one
daughter and the son married out of the
family. On New Year the other daughter
followed suit and a few days after the
father married to keep up the family.
The Atchison and Nebraska railroad
has been completed to David City,
Nebraska,2o2 miles northwest of Atchison
and regular trains commenced running
through yesterday. Grading is nearly
completed to Columbus, Nebraska, where
a junction with the Union Pacific will be
effected. The road will reach that point
by the middle of February.
The Bluir county Republican committee
met Saturday. A resoulution declaring
for Hon. John A. Lemon for Auditor Gen
eral was unanimously adopted. Hon. S.S.
Blair and S. B. Isenberg were elected
Representative delegates by acclamation,
and Dr. A. S. Stayer was indorsed for
the Senatorial delegate. A resolution
instructing the delegates to support
Blaine for President was defeated by 5 to
70.
