has much to answer for 0 w ler why you go in and win THE baltimore Convent convention lon ion has met and adjourned the suspense is ended band gand HORACE gru gnu greeney GREELEY ELEY and B GRATZ BROWN are the democratic candidates for president and andvick vice vlee president of the united states probably no event in the political history of this country is so BO remarkably strange as this and its very strangeness is the best beat possible evidence ot of the restiveness of the people and their determination to have a change had it been predicted one year ago that horace greeley would receive the endorsement of a regular democratic convention for president of the united blates states who would have believed it ii the men moa who were the most active in bringing it about would probably y F at t that time have been the most sk skeptic e P ti caland aland would have thought it imp impossible ble bie all the circumstances which surround his nomination and the bringing forward of his name in connection with the chief magistracy of the nation are extraordinary the planners and ami principal managers of the cincinnati convention had not the most moal remote idea of horace greeley being the choice odthe of the convention the newspaper editors murat halstead of cincinnati horace white of chicago sami bowles of springfield mass and wat waterson e of louisville co could uld not conceal their agitation and disappointment when they saw that he had carried the vote of the convention Other prominent men were squally disappointed he was not the man they wanted but he was the choice of tho the majority of the delegates and despite overy evory arrangement ran gement to the contrary he received the nomination it if indications can be trusted he has grown steadily in favor from that time until the present from the day of his hia nomination at cincinnati until the present we have carefully watched the drift of public sentiment and we are confident that he be is far stronger now novy thra he was then his hib nomination fell coldly on oa many ears because it was unlooked unlocked for many democrats democrat hoped davis davia would be the man aud and they were disgusted with greeley numbers of prominent and leading members of that party freely asserted that he would never get the nomination at baltimore and to make this a certainty some of them opened upon him and endeavored to create public opinion against him upon mingling with their constituencies however the politicians soon learned that their supporters did not share their sentiments of opposition to greeley and they changed their tone to agree with the new light they had the nomination of norace horace greeley at baltimore is no more due to party management in our opinion thau than it was ut at cincinnati the remark of a leading democratic politician upon his return from a visit to his district after the cincinnati convention was waa that the people were in this idatte matter r ahead of the politicians tic ians he found it so eo in his district it was so in nearly every district in his bis state he became a strong greeley man other leading men from various parts of the country were led for the same hame reasons to take the same interest in the candidates of the cincinnati convention ven tion these and other indications which we have noticed lead us to the conclusion that GREELEY and BROWN bbown are the peoples choice and that if they reach the goal for which tiley they have started party managers will be entitled to but little credit for such a result gen grant has several advantages which cannot be overlooked in this contest he has the office in his possession and this will be more of an advantage in his hla caso case than in mat nat of any ady of his predecessor he has behind him a compact well drilled organization he has to aid him the great army of officeholders office holders who whatever their private feelings towards him may be have their bread and butter lutter at stake and work with zeal for the candidate to whom they owe their living and last but by no means least he holds the purse strings in this contest money will exert its full power capitalists may perceive many reasons for preferring a continuation of th the present rule and rather than have a change many of them may feel willing to spend considerable sums of money are odds in gen gan grants favor without alluding to his military renown or to his management of the office about which there is and will be considerable dispute and they are not lot to be despised if however the masses are discontented and desire a change in affairs then these odds will have but little weight it Is their ballots which will decide the result and not the scheming politicians tic ians the mercenary officeholders office holders or the grasping capitali capitalists ats from judge bean who called upon us this morning we learn several interesting items concerning the indians the judge left provo in
