tha presidsiicy a man of tha character and
capacity. versatility and power of organi

waa held In tha old wooden Baengerfest
bail, and tha etenMvely displayed matter.
In proportion to Ita value, waa tha eslst
enca of a republieaa fllberal) quadrilateral
of newspaper men, determined to control
everything, run tha presidential campaign
to suit themselves, and practically take
possession of the country.
Tha accused conspirators were Horace
White of tha Chicago Tribune, Samuel
Bowles of tha Springfield Republican,
Whltelaw Reld of tha New Tork THbuna
and Murat Haletead of the Cincinnati Com
mercial. There wera certain near friends
of each of those charged with carrying of
corners named In that connection, but
they wera hardly permitted to consider
themselves as even pillars of tha quad
rilateral; that Is, according to overbearing
rumors.
Watterson'a ana JMeClarca ran.
Henry WatUrson was oa hand and
plSfcanlonally seemed sympathetic, with tha
arymptoms somewhat revolutionary, but ha
had constantly an assortment of convic
tion that prevented his Influential partici
pation In tha proposed enterprise. It Is
surprising to remember how lightly party
obligations of all hands seamed to affect
tha liberals. Colonel Alexander McClure
of Philadelphia was an adviser, constantly
willing to relate to tboss of leas experience
than himself (and that Included all tho
rest) just how to lay out and clear up and
pursue tho correct paths to victorious re
mits, and, If I am not sadly at fault tn
recollection, ho desired to Impress upon
tha liberal republicans tha necessity of a
bold declaration In favor of a high pro
tective tariff, or something aklo with that
lino of policy a Pennsylvania view of It,
perhaps, modified to meet tba advancement
of tha democracy In tha Keystone state.
Whether Mr. MoCluro was a democrat or
a republican was a mystery, and ha was
sot afraid.
Whltelaw Reld was tha organiser. He
was tha leading diplomat, whose anxiety
was to bring Into unison ths various fan
tastio purposes of ths swarms of reform
ers turned loose in all sections of tha coun
try . to .ewncentrat - In- Cincinnati. - - Mr.
Rei did mora In admonition and Instruc
tion than'ln declaration. 11 had a candi
dateHorace Greeley and that seemed
always a sufficient reason for his Inde
pendent irregularity; and his loyalty to
Greeley was a supreme sentiment.
Bowles, Independent Janrnallst.
Samuel Bowles was. perhaps, the stronger
and certainly the most subtle of all In
dependent journalists, past, present or to
come. If he had been of a vocal turn of
expression ha would have been singing
perpetually, for be waa a picture of active
contentment, full of faith and fierce In
action. "Let Independence be our Doast,
always minding what It costs," and so on,
would have suited him at that time. 11a
was a mors severe critic than Mr. Reld. and
he had wire-edged convictions. He knew
precisely what It was necesssry to do,
and had a way of persuading nearly every
body to be of like mind, as long as be
talked to them. When tb glamor paaaed
the certainty of agreement with him didn't
seem so obvious to his Interlocutors, but
ha never gav up any ship that floats!.
He bad a candidate who, in some respects.
surpassed Mr. Reld's candidate. Bowles
sa for Charles Francis Adams, first, last
end all the time, and bis seal for Adams
wsg contagious. He had the gift of con.
ersatloa sod executive eloquence. He
' even disregarded tha observation that a
third Adams for president would be as bad
as three terms for on man. Bowles was
so constructive that tha Springfield Re
publican has never recovered from a fe
rocity of Independence.
Harare White's Pertlaaelty.
Horace White had tha same aptitude
and exactitude as to fundamental doctrines
that hca possessed him almost always
and he has always been a maa of great
principle and a pious pertinacity as
politician. It did not matter whether he
stood up or sat down ho stuck. It
my Impression that ha " was rather
stronger fre trader than Colonel McClura
was a protectionist, but, when they got
together, they pulled and broke even.
Whit was very strict even then la his
convictions about ths correct nature of the
standard for money. He was a forerunner.
He was never known to let up on anything
but on time, and that was wben despair
shrouded tb committee oa the platform
on this extraordinary occasion of a super.
Bulty of Independence. The question of
customs duties, levied for revenue and
protection! It waa "and protection" or
"for protection" one little word of dlf
ference. He swiped ths whole obstruc
tion out of ths way by relegating ths
tariff question to the congress of the
United States. Officially humorous people
laughed sardonically about that, but It
wasn't the fault of Mr. White, who did
the best he could, but everything disagreed
with everybody, and compromise Is St tbs
foundation of good government.
Having relegated the main question to
tbs representatives of ths people chosen
In another capacity than that of Cincinnati
national conventions, there remained the
president to nominate. It wee assumed
the nominee of the liberal republican con
vention was going to beat Grant. I oc
casionally heard some expressions of mis
giving as to that, as Grant had been pretty
bard to beat several times snd had the
"luck" to receive the surrender of three
armies, but there were a good many people
who had expressed the conviction that the
time had come when ststesmanshlp Instead
of military tbeiftainshlp should be called
epnn to wboop thing, up and make them
lively.
Tw t aadldaies from Illinois.
Mr. Whits had a candidate for the presi
dency, of whom bs took scrupulous cars
and urged with conscientious energy Sena
tor Lyman Trumbell of Illinois. My mem
ory is not distinct as to my first choice of
candidates, as 1 was first on the ground.
and all the news ran to ma I suppose 1
was a "compromiser" about ths candidate.
but 1 had an extraordinary faith In ilie
revolutionary ability of an ugltated popu
laoe and was willing to suit to "great
and good" principle. I had been a be
holder of such phenomena tn war and poll'
tics that nothing seemed tmpoeail,:, and
tbs more development, tha better for In
dependent Journalism. This was the motto
of ths day.
While McClura waa a ican of principles
rather than of persons, ho bad a candidate
away out in ths state of Illinois. I never
understood why he abandoned Pennsyl
vania at that time, but he did, and
first choice, candidate waa the highly and
Justly distinguished Judge Iavld Davis.
For a Urns the course of opinion waa in
favor of Mr. Davis, till somebody said.
"If w must have a Davis, our Davis was
the wrong Davis, and ws should taks
'Jeff,' whose political standing was at
least understood, none ths less because it
waa unjust to the judge." This was
blow. Illinois seemed to be weighted with
two presidential candidates, and by some
strange oversight there was no candidate
presented from Ohio, Indiana or Kentucky,
all adjacent states to ths seen of the con.
ventlon omitted an uncommon event.
There cornea In occasions of great con
ventions a critical evening. The actual
work of the convention Is being don at
such time, but tha delegates ar not as
similated, if assembled. There ar err
tain signs and wonders that the experi
enced persons comprehend as soon as they
get fairly In the air. There is a mystical
lowering that defines the shadows' of com
lng events, and casts them before. There
Is a hush that means more than noise.
Ther is a whisper Ilk that of a flooded
liver, flowing In tb dark, but It tells of
the mighty waters. EvenU ar often
heard before they are seen.
St. Lomii Editor's Tip.
It wss about 10 p. m. when a St Louis
editor cam Into tb St. Nicholas with an
air of Innocence, and It seemed to some
that ha had an Ignorant look, also; but he
had the news and presently dropped It In
tha most Informal, nonchalant and unap
preciative manner as to what he was doing.
He stated that Mr. Greeley's friends were
convinced that "we" ought to have a can 41
data somehow or other frgm southern soil
and that ther was to be arranged a com
blnatioa between the Greeley men and a
gentleman from Missouri named Grata
Brown, I knew something about Mr.
Brown. I had seen him In tha capacity
of a Thomas Benton democrat Invading
th convention of 1KC, notwithstanding be
and his delegation were excluded as ir
regulars. Mr. Brown's methods of pass
ing in at tba door and securing seats for
his people was, independent of tickets, to
lead the way with a silk bat In his left
band andva gold-headed can In his right,
snd th way he applied that can to th
heads and hands of the democrats who hi'
terfersd with htm. until th golden head
flew from the ebony stick and Mr. Brown's
silk hat had been badly damaged, was a
thrilling spectacle. Th animation was
extraordinary. ' Th fun of It was. Brown
got In and staid there. That Is an ther
was of it, Ccept a few bumps and, I be
lieve, two or three bloody noses. Mr.
Brown appeared to be a very vigorous gen.
tleman. and I Hadn't more than heard the
first telling of th Greeley and Brown story
of the evening when I knew what H wa
as well as th gentleman knew who tried
to put a bridl on an untrained colt that
had been haltered with difficulty, and It
occurred to him, as th colt held Its head
too high, that th way to fix him was to
pull th head down to th halter and tie
th halter around th man a own left leg,
and then reach up and put on tha bridle!
The colt had mad but tw Jumps of ten
feet each when the amateur horseman
knew that his strategy was an error. Even
the colt, I am told, got hurt.
Bowie' Candidate.
I always found It difficult to withstand
anything that Samuel Bowles was In earn
est about, and he was nor In earnest
about Charles Francis Adams than he was
about anyone else that la, he seemed so
then and his fault was Intensity, stringency
and protraction of consistency. I dido
wast any tims In looking up Bam, but I
spared no effort until I found Mr. White.
faithful that he would listen to reason,
and told him what th news was. White
always knew news wben he snuffed it.
He saw It then first glance and sniff.
said to Whits: "They will hardly sprin
this upon th second ballot In the morning
If you can go to the telegraph wire, talk
with Judge Trumbell and tell him the situ
ation that ha hasn't any chance at all, and
that If he will make th Illinois delega-
tlon solid on the first ballot for Charles
Francis Adams, w can nominate Adama
for president and Trumbell for vice preel
dent and that would be the best ticket
we could get Out of this scrap anyhow,
and It might win." Mr. White had the
virtue of deliberation In methods, especially
when he was In a bole. He sat down In
corner, pulled his hat over his eyas, sa
no one, and gave himself up to silent and
deep thought for about three mlnutea It
waa a meditation of deetlny. I was hav
lng a little profound thought myaelf, about
finding a triumphant road to run away on.
Whit earn around his allotted three mln
tes had run out saying. "1 won't do
that. Ws can stand them off on the first
ballot and then concentrate on Trumbell
and nominate him." ,1 said goodby and
ran across ths street to writ an able
article, and wsrned - the convention next
morning thst ther waa a Greeley and
Brown plot.
Creeley th Candidate.
This shows the harmony there Is In the
management by great American Journalist
of a bit of presidential business. It was
the nomination, somewhat In conception.
by democrats of a liberal republican to
beat Grant, and several fellows, able to
urn their minds over and examins them.
got to thinking, after all the slaughter of
liberals, maybe Grant would be beaten,
and this had a sorrowful continuance until
we got the news from North Carolina and
the southern state held a special election
of Its own. Just in the right time to help
Grant. The liberal steamboat. Cincinnati,
struck sand right then and there. Th
water was too shallow to navigate, and
Greeley was gone.
I stuck to the old man simply beer use It
Is necessary for a newspaper person to do
something, and I didn't wsnt to go back
on dear old Mr. Greeley, with his snowy
hair and seamless face, though I had been
getting for some time "Jubus." I came to
the conclusion a little while before the
eleitlon that the best thing for the eoun
try would b to have another term of
Grant. Th flavor of Whltelaw Reld's
champ sme drinking the health of Greeley
and Brown was well, it waa extra dry.
I stuck to the liberal flag, put high steam
on th towboat, and went down In th
whirlpool. I hav been of th opinion ever
sine that the election of Grant waa th
best thing that could have happened tinder
the circumstances to all of us, but It was
ul to see despondent good fellows swim-
aad t
mlng ashore on bits of wreck, their birch
bsrk canoes all gone.
I do not think the actual condition the
mental, moral, political situation of th
celebrated quadrilateral at Cincinnati In
1872, had ever been corectly stated until
this writing, but I have done It now, to re
member all things and hold fast that which
Is good. Th accuracy of this, tn all de
tails ever disputed, can, I think, bs veri
fied. But no one will think th them has
life In It for a discussion.
Haletead for Brlstow.
For soma time It seemed that th news

management of national politics in an ex
ecutlve capacity. Four years hadn't quits

that fighting point, making It a fire line.
anyhow. But I thought It wis to support
my friend. General Brlstow of Kentucky,
secretary of th treasury, for th regular
republican nomination. That was my atti

Ohio, General R. B. Hayes. I stuck to

Tb only excuse for saying so Is that It Is
so. He waa clever, and his humor had a
certain snap In It when w discussed that
