speaking of

the Farwelt Hall bulldozers quotes from several papers which are anti-Grant, the result of that Cook County Convention.

Pioneer- Prett

of Monday

morning spoke of the result at the primaries an an "overwhelming defeat of Grant." Yesterday it said:

The Washburn-Blaine men. having nearly three to one of the delegates, and therefore full control of the convention, must by this time perceive that they com mitted an unpardonable blunder in affording the Grant men any excuse whatever for a bolt. The result will he that the organization of the Springfield convention will probably be in the hands of the Grant men.

The desperate battle in Cook County will he fought over again at Springfield, on the 19th", but unless our advices are at fault as to the complexion in the State convention, leaving out Chicago, it will

the Grant men who will have the ad vantage. The New York

Jit rah!

say*:

It conceded that, outside of Cook County, the ex-President will have a ran jority of the delegates to the Illinois con vention. It was doubtful whether the adverse delegates from Cook County would not nullify their majority. When, the third-term men discovered that the Cook County Convention was in the hands of their opponents, the most hopeful thing they could do was to set on foot a maneuver by which the delegates from that great and populous county wotdd be excluded from the perliminary proceedings of the State convention. The third term bolt seems to look in that direction. Its actual, and probably its intended. effect will be to leave Cook County out in the cold until the State convention is organized. There will be two full sets of contesting delegates, which will afford a pretext for shutting both of them out until a committee on contested seats shall have reported.

Republican

(Democrat)

says: The vote of Illinois, as it appears to us, will be cast for Grant, and the action of the Cook County Republicans will only belt) in that direction.

This shows where the delegates belong.

THK

Newporl

I loonier State

contains

the following, which we think covers the whole ground: "In running a newspaper it is hard to please everybody. The world is made up of different tastes, and each individual has his own Idea of the eternal fitness of things, and for one man to please all would be moral impossibility. All that an editor can do is to promulgate his own honest convictions, taking care not to personally offend anyone, emphasize in nis own columns what he believes to be right and most emphatically condemn what he believes to be wrong. If a publisher should lake his wiper in proof and go around among his patrons, and ask one to strike out his objectionable item among them, all the entire, sheet would go into the waste basket and the editor left to contemplate upon the cruel criticisms or his uncharitable readers but that would never do, it would be like preparing a feast and then in advance asking each guest what he would have and whether rare or well done. The only way in cither case is to get up the meal anil then let the guests or patrons each indulge his appetite or let it alone.

Tim impudence of your average anti Grant newspaper exceeds that of Beelzebub himself. Every anti-Grant paper, for instance, in Chicago, is perfectly satisfied that the time has come for General Grant to withdraw, and thus "promoto har mony." They do not say anything about Blaiue withdrawing, or Washburne withdrawing, or Sherman withdrawing, but the man who has, so far, secured more votes in the National Convention than all other candidates combined, must "with draw."—

Chicago Inter Or fan

This gets down to the facts very well. Mr. Washburne has never announced himself as a candidate, but on the con trary. has always held out that he was for the old chief, and positively refuses to be a candidate. It would IK? well for the small gentleman across the way—he of re duced sire—to read this and ponder well.

Tire New York HVr/tf, which is the big Democratic organ, speaking of the Chlcft go convention, gays "The Grant 'boom' Is the most formidable element in thwRopublfcan confidence, and the end of the Grant 'boom* will undoubtedly be dispiriting to the party, tt will chill the enthusiasm of even the anti Grant element of the party. The Republican party has certainly been much nearer unanimity in favor of Grant than it can be brought to be in favor of any other candidate, and the interrats of the Democratic party, and, aa we believe, of the country, therefore are advanced by everrthing which even looks like a sue cesw of the anti Grant men at this stage of the political eon test."

Thia look* very much like the Demo crats are anxious for the nomination of Gen. Grant—In their mind*

SPRING GREETING.

Spring has come, and considerably ahead of its usual time. Yet we have anticipated the coming, and are pleased to offer our customers anti friends such a line of Clothing and Furnishings a* has been rarely if ever seen in this market. Our shelves and counters are full of beautiful goods, elegant fn style, select in materials, ami perfect in workmanship. Our ample capital and large resources have never availed us greater advantage in manufacturing clothing than at the present time, and we propose to give our customers all the lencfit from it that is possible.

Having preconceived the idea of a heavy advance in woolens, we bought largely of staples before the advance, and to-day we are able to offer to our customers these woolens manufactured into cloth at but a slight advance over last year's prices, and at least 20 per cent, less than other dealers can buy the same in New York.

Since occupying our present room our business has so vast ly increased that we have been compelled to enlarge our already spacious room, that we may the better accommodate our daily increasing trade. The additions made are in the rear of our present room, anti will be .used exclusively as our Boys* and Children's Department, being neatly carpeted and furnished with chairs, sofas, tables, mirrors, etc.

TERRE HAUTE CAR

We have never been llxed so well as now to add to the com forts and want* of our customers. In our selections of cloth, and manufacture of Boys* and Children's clothing, we certainly never had such an array of beauty in design of cloth and make up in style as we are able to present to the citizens of 'Ierre Haute and vicinity this Spring.

While others have croaked we have worked, anti that our work has been effc.ctive, not only for our own benefit but for the good of the people at large, is attested by the generous patronage we have been accorded. Be assured it is cheering to receive such tokens of appreciation, and wo shall not remit our efforts to merit them hereafter. We have no occasion to disparage our neighbors, and have no complaints to offer of honorable and fair competition. We transact our business on strictly business principles buy in large quantities such goods as we do not manufacture at our own mills manufacture our own clothing sell to consumers at the same price that the New "Vork Jobber charges the ordinary merchant. sell for cash only, and thereby save all loss from bad debts mark our goods in plain figures and never deviate therefrom have spacious store-rooms and gentlemenly salesmen with whom it is a pleasure to deal, and our guarantee is absolute anil unqualified.

We shall be pleased to serve you. A personal visit will afford you more satisfaction than what we can say here, and we would most gladly welcome you in our new quarters.
