CHESTER A- ARTHUR, of New York. Hancock should drop the blue and adopt the gray. Jno. W. Forney. It is said by army officers that Han cock TEill not resign unless he is elect ed. "A bird in hand is worth two in the bush." "3aud S." is the name of the boss little mare, now. She trots her mile in2:r3 easy. Her owners say she will show 2:10 one of these days. There never Before was such, unani mity among the intelligent Germans of the republic for any presidential can didate as there is now for Garfield. The only thing about Hancock that "draws" is hiiv namebufe the ignoram uses will learn that it is not the brave old John Hancock of "big fist" notor iety. There is a gratifying lack of' accord among the bourbons of Virginia. "When thieves fttft out honest men are likely to get their dues or words to that effect Hon. Alex. Ferguson, a leading Dem ocrac or Cincinnati, lias recently re nounced Hancock as not the man who ought to be-ehjcted, and" comes square ly out for Garfield and Arthur. SecVSchurz arrived m San Francis co on the 27th ult. He was met at Benecia by the Republican central committee and,the jGerman societies, who escorted him to the city. He was serenaded in the evenng. The democratic party passed" a law by which Hayes w.iscounted:in. Han cock says he would have rebelled against that law-had Tilden issued him an order to do so. Had he done so he would have been as much of a traitor as Jeff. Davis. John "W. Forney, now a. supporter of Hancock because as he says he was born in Pennaylvania, in an editorial regarding Hancock's diistardly rule in Gulf States, said: "Hancock's admin istrafcjon was worse than the epidemic of yellow fever." The Democratic bulldozers of the South ire plying their damnable perse cutions constantly. Recently near At lanta a party of disguised white men "visiEetTtbe Tiouse of a colored man named Thompson, beat him and his wife most cruelly and. closed the Dem ocratic matinee by fatally shooting Thompson's son. and daughter. Gen. Hancock in his letter evades and ignores the two great questions of finance and tariff. Gen. Garfield de fines Tits ositibn clearly on these and all other questions of great import to the country, but Hancock, true to the demagoguery of the party he repre sents, too QQwarjtlly to.spealfcout like a man, is evasive and ambiguous. $234,000,000 rebel claims are all that's filed as yet, but what would they be with no vetoing power to meet them. These figures do not include the rebel war debt, nor pay for slaves, nor pensions for rebel soldiers. The northern States pay more than two- thirds of the taxes of the nation, and would Hove that proportion of the-reb-el debts to pay in case of. Democratic supremacy. How would the Xorth and "West like to have another war debt loaded upon their shoulders larger than the original" one Fncurred to save the Union from dismemberment by the Democratic party? "When such men as Horn Philo. A. Orton, hitherto a prominent and influ ential Democrat of Darlington "Wis consin, comes into print over his own signature and declares he dare not longer trust the present political organ ization; called the Democratic party, and pledges for Garfield and Union, that means something.. Among many other strong and true utterances he makes, he says: "Whatever the Dem ocratic party may have been in the past, it is, essentially and absolutely, the party of theSouth to-day." Again : "The record of the Democratic party in congress for the last four years has justly excited the fear of all northern men and well wishers of the Union ev erywhere." These are truths the peo ple must not, and will not overloofr. Some of the Democrats appear to be wonderfully offended when called rebels. But that is what they were, at heart. Some of them Trere not actual rebels because too cowardly to take a musket and go to the front, but every mother's son of them sympathized with those who did go, and rejoiced over ev ery disaster to the Union cause. If not real rebels they Tttese all disuiiion ists. They bear this infamous brand and eannofc wipe it out. It sticks to the old Democrats of '64 the McClell an Democrats like the hierogliphics seared into the skin on the rump of a Texas steer. They then in the midst of the rebellion declared the war for the Union a failure, and demanded an "immediate cessation of "hostilities." It was the Democratic party that made this declaration in their platform, and it "was a disunion or rebel platform, the terms being properly interchangeable, for a cessation of hostilities at that time meant a dissolution of the Union an the rebels were ngauug jui. Ex-Gov. Furnas a Senatorial Candidate. Another candidate comes to the front for the office of U. S. Senator. This time it is ex-Governor K.SV. Fur nas, and of course Furnas will be elec ted. He has formed a combination with the Hon. Cnurch Howe, whereby Furnas is to re-elect Howe to the sen ate, and in return for this Howe is to elect Furnas to the U. S. Senate. As usual, Mr. Howe proposes to have his office first. He takes his pay in ad vance. Governor Furnas may be sim ple enough to think that Howe will fulfill his part of this contract, but he is about the only man in Nebraska who would believe anything of the kind. Lincoln Qlobe. Mr. Eaton, or Mr. McBride, or both, or somebody, seems to be in a bad fix about that "combination." The Qlobe man has been eating cabbage and cu cumbers and has had a bad dream, that is distressing to him. Gentlemen of the Qlobe, you are off your nuts, and appear as ridiculous as do people who utterly ignore the maxims of Col. Davy Crocket. There is no such combina tion or bargain as you speak so posi tively about. -Gov. Furnas favors Mr. Howe for State Senator as between him and some other party that might be named, and he may have said as much, and that's all there is of that terrible combination. The Democratic netvspapers are just now very busy endeavoring to create the impression that numbers of, and prominent Republicans, are leaving the party and going over to Hancock. There has never been a Presidential election,, or campaign, during which there were not more or less changing from one side to the other of certain characters viz: the sore-heads "and: po litically unbalanced heads. Let indi viduals in eachi community where these changes occur, see who the men are. In this particular locality, we find Tipton, Polock and g. e. the editor of what has been an "Independ ent" newspaper, (really rebel in dis guise all the while.) "WeneecTnot par ticularize, all know how much Repub lican they have ever been. Their ob ject is to be where teats and loaves are to be found. The Omaha Herald talks in this wise, when reporting "recruits. coming over to the Hancock standard." "Be sides tJie reported adhesion of Hamil ton Fish jr., of Xew York" etc. Cer tainly, "Reported adhesion!" "If tliis is true" says- the Herald, "it tells a story for pivotal Xew York." Yes: "if this is true?" But it is not, and the Herald knows it. This is simply a deceptive manner of putting a straight lie before the public noth ing more nothing less. The Democrat has developed into a regular Church Howe, organ. It re counts with great gusto that redoubta ble chieftain's exploits in behalf the old woman in corsets-7tee Hancock. Howe is forever getting his name be fore the public in some manner. In this instance some cripple, old man, or other decrepit person was attacked by the valiant Howe and almost trouueed to death for insinuating against Han cock's loyalty. Better send Knight Howe around to the Globe office. Lin coln Qlobe. It seejns that the Qlobe believed that idiotic fabrication started by the Grang er, which disgusted Mr. Howe as much as it did anybody, because it was a lie made out of whole cloth. Mr. Howe has been a witness to Gen. Hancock's bravely and efficiency as a soldier, and that is all. He condemns his political record in every sense, as will be veri fied when he takes the stump for Gar field. The time has-come to enjoy the sub stantial benefits of reconciliation. Hancock's Letter. It has, if two-thirds of the citizens of the United States; can be "reconcil ed" to surrender their various consti tutional and lawful rights of fran chise and citizenship, to the one-third. Gen. Hancock is confidently expecting the Southern States to give him the'r 138 electoral' votes; solid; and he knows it is utterly impossible for him to ob tain this vote by fair and honest vot ing; yet- he demagogue like, talks about reconciliation. m a Omaha Republican: The indepen dent people's labor committee of the United States in session at Sharon, Pa., has indorsed the nomination of Gar field and Arthur for president and vice president. Gen. Hancock referred them to Mr. Barnum in an aristocratic way, and the result is fitting. The la boring men of the country can have nothing in common with the corseted, aristocrat army officer who looks down upon them. m "When General Hancock was asked for his opinions on "the labor question," by a delegation of workingmen, he po litely declined a response, but gave them a letter of introduction to Chair man Barnum. The General has heard from the workingmen at Pittsburg en answer that he can understand. Dig nity is a good thing, but a fellow can even be too all-fired dignifiedf or health. Inter 0an. "We learn that the Hon. Church Howe is a Republican candidate for the legislature in Xeraaha county. For the interests of the Republican party of the State, it is to be hoped that Mr. Howe will receive the nomination and the election. Omaha Republican.

GARFIELD AED AETHUB HOMDTA TED AGAIN. Eational Laborers' Convention. PiTTSBUKG, Pa, July 20. The in dependent peoples' labor convention assembled in Sharon yesterday for the purpose of selecting candidates for president and vice president of the United States. W.H. Taylor, chair man of the national committee, called the convention to order. After brief addresses the election of permanent of ficers was held resulting m the selec tion for chairman of B. Smith, "Va; secretary, John L. James, Pa. The chairman appointed J. R. Rogers, of Indiana, N. Venhanny, Connecticut, R. Sullivan, Iowa, committee on per manent organization. On motion Jones, Xew York, the convention went into nomination. Mr. Taylor, of Cleveland presented the name of Senator James A. Garfield, seconded by Perkins of Ohio. Mr. Jones, of Xew York, pre sented General Hancock, seconded by Johnson, of Iowa. Linden, of Maine, presented General Weaver, seconded by Spaulding, of "West Virginia. The bal lot was as follows: Colorado, Garfield 8, Hancock 7 ; Connecticut, "Weaver 5, Garfield 10; Virginia, Hancock 15; Illinois, Garfield 13, "Weaver 2; India- na, Garfield l.r : Iowa, Hancock 2, Gar field 13; Michigan, Garfield 12, Han cock 1, "Weaver 2; Maryland, Hancock 9, Garfield 6; Maine, Hancock 1, Gar field 2, "Weaver 12; Ts'ew Jersey, Gar field 3, "Weaver 2, Hancock 10 ; Ken tucky, Hancock 12, Garfield 3; Penn sylvania, Garfield 10, Hancock 2, Wea ver 3; "West Virginia, Hancock 10, Garfield 5; New York, Garfield 10, Hancock 5; Ohio, Garfield 15. Total vote cast 225. Garfield received 25 of a majority over all nominations. The nomination was made unanimous. Gen. Arthur was nominated for vice president by acclamation, after which the convention adjourned amid great enthusiasm. The thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amendments- to the Constitu tion of the United States, embodying the results of the war for the Union, are inviolable. Hancock's Letter. "Well, who but Democrats have said they were violable. The fifteenth amendment gave the negro the right to vote. "What is the "White Leagne for in the South the bulldozer thetissue bal lot? Is not the nullifiaafcfon of the fif teenth amendment their sole business. Gen. Hancock must disband hs white league now or be accounted as insincere; he must send home his bull dozer, and tell his ballot box stuffer that his occupation is gone, for the amendments "are inviolable." Gen. Hancock says by this that the negro is a citizen, has a right to vote, must be allowed to vote as he pleases and to have his vote honestly counted, because the fifteenth amendment which is "inviolable" gives him this right. What does the South think about the violability of these emendments? Every intelligent man knows well the answer. "What are the Southern Dem ocratic newspapers now doing about those amendments? Are they echoing the words of their Northern leader? -- No, indeed. The soul and spirit of the Southern press are bent upon vio lating the fifteenth amendment. If they were held inviolable where would Hancock get any votes, to speak of? Is Haneock honest in his flat-footed declaration. We wish he were, but cannot believe he is. Why? Well, there are two substantial rea sons: First, he is ambitious to be President, and knows he cannot be elected by a free and fair election, in sccord with the constitution. Second, in 1SGS he- indorsed Seymour and Blair, and in so doing indorsed the treason uttered by Blair in his Broad head letter, written before his nomina tion, and was intended, as he so ex pressed, a bid for the place given him on the Democratic ticket. That letter, in strong plain words and sentences, ad vocated the overthrow, by force, of the three amendments named nowby Han cock as inviolable. Hancock immedi ately after the nomination of Seymour and Blair, in a letter to Glover of St. Louis, in the most positive language indorsed those nominees and the action of the convention, thus swallowing Blair with his abnoxious letter, and the platform which denounced the three amendments as "unconstitutional, null and void." Every intelligent man who voted for Blair, must have had a pre ponderance of treasonable principles. Twelve years ago Blair, Hancock, the Democratic, party believed the President ought to assume supreme power and a dictatorship over the peo ple's representatives in the Senate and Congress, take the army and at the point of the bayonet overthrow those "inviolable amendments" and the laws enacted for their enforcement. Has Hancock been converted since, to the constitution ? Is it not entering upon most danger ous ground to trust a man with such a record? What did Le want to speak of those amendments for? unless he thought the people might doubt his loyalty to thim. Loyal candidates for President do not go upon the housetop to call at tention to their loj-alty. Gen. Garfield did not think of formally declaring the amendments inviolable. He had no need to do so. He had a record behind him which the people had read and he knew that in the minds of the people he was loyal to the constitution in all its parts. Hancock uttered that sen tence for thespecial attention of confi dencing Northern people out of their votes: And Still They Gome. The decent and temporate democrats all over the country are every day coming over to the support of Gen. Garfield. The last name which come to our ears is that of Hon. Alexander Ferguson, of CincinnatL Mr. Fergu son is a democrat of the ultra stripe and one of the ablest lawyers of Ohio. He was the main man in securing the Cincinnati Southern railroad.

Hancock'8 Letter. New York, July 80. The following is General Hancock's letter of accep tance: Governor's Island, New York City, July 29, 1880. Gentlemen; I have the honor to acknowledge the re ceipt of your letter of July 13, 1880, apprising me formally of my nomina tion to the ofhee of President of the United States, by the National Demo cratic Convention, lately assembled in Cincinnati. I accept the nomination with a grateful appreciation of the confidence reposed in me. ? The principles enunciated by the convention are those I have cherished in the past, and shall endeavor to maintain in the future. The thirteenth, fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the constitution of the United States, embodying the results of the war for the Union, are inviolable. If called to the Presidency, I should deem it my duty to resist with all my power any attempt to impair or evade the full force and effect of the constitu tion, which in every article, section and amendment is the supreme law of our land. The constitution forms the bases of the Government of the United States; the power granted by it to the legisla tive, executive and judicial depart ments define and bind the authority of the general government. Powers not delegated to the United States by the constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, belong to the States respec tively or to the people. The general and State governments, each acting in its own sphere, without trenching up on the lawful jurisdiction of the other, constitute the union. This Union, com prising a general government, with general powers and State government, with State powers for the purposes lo cal to States, is a polity, the founda tions of which were laid in the pro foundest wisdom. This is the Union our fathers made, and which has been so respected abroad and so beneficent at home. Tried by blood and fire, it stands to-day a model form of a free and popular government, a pol-cical system of which, rightly adminisleied, has been and will continue to be the admiration of the world. May we not say nearly in the words of Washington, "The unity of Government which con stitutes us one people, is justly dear to us." It is the main pillar in the edifice of our real independence, the support of our peace, safety and prosperity, and of that liberty we so highly prize, and intend at every hazard to preserve. But no form of government however carefully devsed, no principles how ever sound, will protect the rights of the people unless the administration is a vital principle in our system that neither fraud nor force must be allow ed to subvert the rights of the people. When fraud, v'o'ence or incompetence controls, the noblest constitution and w'sest laws a-e useless. The boyonet is not a fit instrument for collecting the votes of free men; it is only by a full vote, free ballot and fair count that the people can rule, in fact, is required by the theory of our government. Take this foundation away and the whole structure falls. A public officer is a trust, not a bounty bestowed on the holder. No incompetent or dishonest persons should ever be entrusted with it, or if appointed they should prompt ly be rejected. Our national interests, varied and progressive, demand our conscant and united efforts, a sedulous ca"e of public credit, together with a wse and economical management of -our governmental expenditures should. bo maintained,. in nnlectiinc-Jabor may be lightly burdened, and that all per sons may be protected in their rights to the fruits of their own industry. The time has come to enjoy the sub stantial benefits of reconciliation. As one people, we have common interests. Let us enebnrage friendly and generous rivalry among our industries, which will revive our languishing merchant marine, extend our commerce with foreign nations, assist our merchants, manufacturers and producers to de velop our vast national resources, and increase the prosperity and happiness of our people. If elected, I shall with divine favor, labor with what ability I possess to discharge my duties with fidelity ac cording to my convictions, and shall take care to protect and defend the Union, and tosee that the laws be faith fully and equally executed in all parts of the country alike. I will assume the responsibility fully sensible of the fact that to administer rightly the func tions of the government is to discharge the most sacred duty that can devolve upon an American citizen. I am very respectfully yous, W. S. Hancock. To Hon. J. W. Stevenson, President of Convention; Hon. John P. Stockton, Chairman, and others of the Commit tee of the National Democratic Con vention.

Not a long while ago, an energetic re porter (all are energetic that are not failures) of Philadelphia attended a certain medical university for the space twenty-five hours. In that time, being a shrewd fellow, (all are shrewd that are not failures) he took the whole course, submitted a thesis, paid $100 and got a diploma. He published the course, the thesis and diploma the day after he matriculated. Immead'ately Puck and the other solemn authorities began to look into the matter. Day be fore yesterday it was ascertained that "Dr. Buchanan" had 11,000 such d'olc mas scattered over the world. The investigators will publish the names of as many of these licensed murder ers as possible. By fair calculation, it will be seen that one reporter has led to the detection of 11,000 murderers and saved, beyond a doubt, several million lives I The bogus diploma business would meet with speedy dis;ister if the legis latures of States would incorporate a clause in their penal codes indicting heavy penalty upon any man, or wo man, attempting to practice medicine under authority of these fraudulent diplomas. Set down upon the bearers of them is ttie way to do k. Make the possession of a bogus diploma as dan gerous as if it were a bogus bank note and the illegitimate colleges would soon die for want of customers. m i m Tfca Benders Captured, Fremont, Neb., July 30.
