The Issues Made Up.

The political issues upon which the campaign of 1872 is to be fought, are now made up, and are all ready to go to the people. The papers have been drawn with care, the exponents have been chosen, and the advocates are arraigned on e'ither side. In a few days, all over this country, the jury will be listening to the argument of the speakers, and inZSTovemfrer the question will be decided, and the verdict rendered. What will be that verdict, no man living can tell. May we not entertain the hope that it Will be for the right, and for the best interests of oh Common country?

Tbe names that are to lead' the contending hosts are familiar to every American reader. They are equally celebrated all over the land. The one has a brilliant reputation as a soldier and commander on the battle field. No American officer has ever achieved more lasting renown. As a military man, he stands at the head of his profession, but as a civilian, since he has undertaken the more important duties of a statesman, like most soldiers who have gone before him, he has shown most remarkable unfitness. The other is a chief in the world of statesmanship and of letters. For a quarter of a century he has stood at the head of, and been the great advocate of all the important measures that have gone to make prosperous and happy a great and a mighty people.

Among the intellectual men of the country, he has, for thirty years, been a leader. Having long been an active participant in the great movements of tho country, he stands to-day with not one single act of dishonor or dishonesty clinging to his garments.

If this country was again in a state of war, and we were called upon to decide Who should take command of our armies, without a moment's hesitation we would place that command in the hands of General Ulysses S. Grant, liut as the country is in the midst of profound peace, and the question is, which shall be placed at the head of our civil affairs, General Grant or Horace Greeley, without a moment's hesitation, we say Mr. Greeley. Does not this seem to be the common sense of this whole matter? The one is a military man—was educated in a military school—has read nothing but military books—thought only on military subjects, and never achieved any distinction in his whole life, out^side of the camp and field. The other is a civilian—was educated in the common schools of the country, where the civil rights and privileges of the citizen are taught—has read Only books on the relations of civil life—has thought only on civil subjects, and has achieved great renown in the civil walks of life. Which, then, of these two men, are most fitted, by the whole history of their past lives, to take charge of the civil affairs of this people? Can an intelligent citizen of any party, pause for one moment in determining his duty We think not.

Before such a state of case, when all the facts are fairly submitted to the jury of the country, there must be a finding in favor of a civilian ruling in times when the civil law is to be enforced, and a soldier, when it becomes necessary that the country should be placed under mili tary law. This will strike the minds of all independent men who have the courage to do what their judgments tell them is right and proper to be done, and who will not follow the dictates of party to accommodate officeholding partisan leaders."

We enter the canvass as we did the one of 1860. Then we had as an exponent of the principles which we believed to be right, the towering, massive, common sense, and throbiug big heart of Abraham Lincoln. A man who would have done what he believed to be right though every sprig of grass on his Illinois prairies would have turned to devils and forbid it. A mau who would have refused to pursue a course of conduet which his judgment told him to be wrong, though ten thousand such Official positions as the Presidency had beckoued bim to their embrace. We have to-day as the exponent of the principles which we believe to be for the fature wellbeing of our beloved country, a man whose great abilities have won him tbe respect and esteem of intelli-

gent men everywhere, and whose big, throbbing, kind heart wrings from the bosoms of his former enemies, their warmest praise. From our boyhood we have kpown Horace Greeley, and in our manhood we have loved and respected him, and will not desert him. "Across the bloody chasm of the war," we therefore extend our hand, and give a heartwarm welcome to all men, come from whatever party they may, and join with them, and will tight by their side, until with them, and by their aid and assistance, we overthrow this military Government, which is fast being organized in this country iu times of peace," and place at the head of our national affairs, a man who will see, that in a Republican form of Government, the military i$ subordinate to the civil power.

The Tcrre Haute Journal. We must confess that we were surprised at the tone of the Journal this morning. We had supposed after tiie Democratic party had met iu National Convention and nominated a ticket, the Journal would have supported it. J'ut this morning the editor is as hostile as ever, and fights the nominee of his party the men who composed the convention ninety-nine one-hundredths of all the Democrats of tbe county ,and things generally, and individuals particularly.

If Mr. Edmunds will run back over his classic reading, he will find that among the Greeks there was an old motto which said Whom the gods wish to destroy, they first make mad." Does not the editor of the Journal know he is mad If he does not, he should inquire of some of his mosfc-^riisted friends,, and they will be sure to tell him, that he is as rabid as a March hare, and that tbe course he is now pursuing, will lead to his destruction, politically and financially. Can anythiug be plainer? Does he expect that he can check this onward movement of the people You cannot do it, my dear sir, and when it is too late, you will find yourself Overwhelmed. There is neither propriety, reason, policy, or common sense in your course, and it will not'be many weeks until yoti will find it out, if even you1 do not know it now1, but your stubborn pride of opinion will not let you do that which all your of own,and your country's interests demand you should do.

We hope the Journal will yet receive light.

Ratification at Paris.

There is to be a grand Greeley ratification meeting at £aris, Illinois, on Saturday afternoon. James C. Allen and John R. Eden, and other distinguished speakers, will be present and address the people. If our fellow-tiitizen, B. W. Hanna, arrives in time from the Baltimore Convention, he will also be present

Our sister State is red hot in the good work, and we have before us a letter from a distinguished Democrat of that State, in which he says, "The Greeley current is like the mighty volume of the Mississippi at floodtide, overwhelming- and crushing dbwn all opposition."

We hope as many of our Greeley friends, who can spare the time, will attend the ratification, at Paris, Saturday afternoon. The trains are convenient to suit our citizens. Let us go into the adjoining States and assist our friends in the good work.

Gen. Kimball Resigned.

The telegraph informs us that General Nathan Kimball yesterday resigned his position as Presidential Elector-at-Large on the Grant State ticket. What does this all mean? Has the old war horse become disgusted with the pleasure-lov-ing, gift-taking, nepotism and general inefficiency of the other war horse? There is something in the wind, and there is a mighty storm coming. We would not be surprised to hear of more of the leading men on the Grant State ticket resigning. General Kimball and Major Cravens have already slid off, aud have thereby acted like wise men ought.

Letter From General Milo S. Hascall, of Salem, Indiana. Last week, the Goshen (Ind.) Times contained a two-column letter, addressed to General Milo 8. Hascall, wanting to know of him how he could consistently be for Greeley this yaar, when he was one of the Electors for Grant four years ago. To this letter. General H^gcall has replied as follows

A FRIENDLY EPISTLE TO WILLIAM STARR. DEAR SIR —Not knowing who my "Former Admirer" is that addressed me the long and kindly letter through your colums last week, I will, with your permission, reply in a letter addressed to you.

:r 4

The main trouble with my Former Admirer's" letter, is that hie uses up column and a half of your paper in showing that I have always been a straight Republican, and that I have always been foremost in tbe ranks of those that were instrumental in establishing the prin ciples of the Republican party on the firm foundation we now find them. It needed no argument to esiabUsh this. What every one knows to be true may safely be assured. Once for all, then, let it be understood that there is no one in this country who is a more sincere admirer of the vital principles of the Republican party than myself, or who did more, both on the forum and in the field, to establish them. The only point the letter of my Former Admirer makes, is, that I supported General Grant four years ago, and this year, support Greeley. This is not true, and if the same conditions existed now as ex isted then, I would support Grant again Gen. Grant never was ndy first choice for President, and I never have voted but once in my life for a President that was my first choice—that was Abraham Lincoln. Of two candidates and platforms presented, we have to take the one that more nearly corresponds with our views. Mr. Greeley I regard a much better man for this crisis than General Grant, and he is certainly running on a much better platform. He has been a much better Republican than General Grant, because, while the latter was voting the Democratic ticket, Greeley was educating the public mind, through long years, up to that standard of right and justice which rendered it possible for' the Republican party to exist. If there had ^never been any better Republicansjin the country than Geueral Grant, slavery would exist to-day as it did twelve or fifteen years ago. All the principles of the Republican party are established, and, as Mr. Baker said in his Court House speech, the other evening such away that they can not be undone! Now, the question is, can we have reform in the civil service? Can we prevent tbe Williams, the Iddings, the Moons, and the |numerous other corrupt office-holders all over the couutry, from perpetuating themselves eternally in

office by virtue of the patronage they control. Mr. Greeley is in favor of the one-term principle, which takes away all motive from the President for making appointments to office except for merit. This is the right beginning, and is, by all odds, the most important principle at issue in this campaign.

Two years ago 1 opposed Williams in this district because, as I alleged, he was corrupt himself, and was surrounded by a corrupt ring of office-holders and others that could control his nomination in spite of every principle of justice and right. You then denied this state of things. In your issue of last week, you admit the existence of this corrupt ring of which I then spoke, and charge upon them very properly the defeat of Mr. Baker. The same state of thiugs that I was contending against in this Congressional District two years ago has now become co-extensive with the United States, and I oppose Grant now because he is himself surrounded by a corrupt ring, consisting of Morton, Cameron, Tom Murphy, and^others, who have not an houest hair in their heads, aud who have absolute control or^Grant, and who are running the Government, for the public good, but for their owi) pirvate gain. The Democratic party having enthusiastically indorsed and approved of the principle's of the Cincinnati platform, and also its candidates, it matters not to me how wrong they may have been iu the past. It is a blessed satisfaction to me to find them right now, and I pity the patriotism of that man that could wish them back upon their old platform, with a representative man thereon, simply because it would be easier to defeat them that way. On the contrary, I say they are deserving of infinite credit for having taken the stand they have, and I propose to move on, side by side with them—I that most bitterly opposed when they were wrong—until every corrupt carpet-bagger in the land, every sutler-selling Williams, every Baker-defeating ring of Moons and Iddings, every corrupt and demoralizing Cameron and Morton, have been swept from the places they now occupy as with the besom of destruction. Thus my kind "former friend" will see that the reason why I now support Greeley instead of Grant is, not because I have lost faith in the glorious principles which the Republican party have contended for and established, but because I object to see them prostituted to the base uses and purposes which would result from the election of General Grant with his present surroundings. Yours,

MILO S. HASCALL.
