Once upon a time, says a writer in

THE CANVASS 0 SLOW.
We do-not desfrei to teach wisdom or
zeal to our party friends, but we think
some of them might use just a little
more common sense in conducting the
canvass in favor of candidates for of
fice, and the contest now going on be
tween the friends of Gov. JarVis and
Judge Fowle for the first place within
the gift of the people, furnishes a pre
text to say something on this subject. .
The open war now carried on by zeal
ous friends promises to result in run
ning both aspirants off the track.
Somebody uttered the expression "save
me from my friends." and well may
both Gov. Jarvis and Judge Fowle be
in a frame of mind ready to make an
appeal equally significant exelamation-
The Observer gives forth no un
certain sound, and time and again has
taken occasion to express its opinion as
to who is the best available candidate
for governor, but it has not felt called
5 on to attack the character of other
aspirants, and we consider such a can
vass manifestly improper. Jarvis and
Fowle both have their advocates in the
Raleigh pressfand the friends of each
side in praising their own champion,
Seem equally zealous in abusing and
defaming the other side. Both have
been, public men for a long time, and
we do not object to a proper, discussion
of the political record of eachbut this
does not justify the wolfish war which
seems just now to be going on.
Let us have light, the fullest light, as
to the record of every man who offers
to sacrifice (?) himself in the cause of
the people,' but in our zealous search
after truth, let us stick to the truth.
Where the offal is to be. found, there
the carrion bird may always be ex
pected, and we are reminded of this
truth as the telegraph informs us of the
clans that arenow gathering at Chi
cago. Jext Wednefday the vshQW
begins, but in the meantime Messrs.
Don Cameron, and Conkling and Logan,
propose to intrench p that they may
the more securely hold the fort. In
order that they may. be the better
enabled to point out the merits and
advantages
have a.
on the field of action, and the incom
ing delegates, by the car load, are taken
in tow, if of the right faith, and made
to feel comfortable. ,
r Visions' of office emolument and
power tu the bestowal lof Federai pa-
tronSge"Jafe 1ield out temptingly'to'the
m en who wil come iq ,. at the .supreme
moment. One man is to be given a
foreign appointment, another is to- be a
Federal judgauc solieitor; another will
be contented with the position of col
lector of the internal revenue, and so
on ad Jinem, and as it is understood
that Grant is to go in, without regard to
the number of votes he may be expected
to receive at the ballot box, his friends
will be able to offer much more liberal
terms than the friends of Mr. Blaine,
and any number ot the dark horses. It
is understood that all the other? candi
dates expect to be elected before they
can dispense any patronage. Grant is
expected to take possession of the White
House if he does not get twenty-five
electoral votes. Of course some-plea
will be necessary, but the power which
over-trod the constitution, and a very
large majority of votes, both of the peo
ple and of the electoral college, and
which furnished a plea for the lame ex
expedient of an eleclpral cqmmission,
will come to the rescue of the party. A
coup d'etat will be inaugurated,
which of itself will inaugurate the strong
man. At least this much has been
claimed.and will be beautifully pictured
by the friends of Grant to the delegates
as they arrive on the incoming trains.
It requires no gift of foresight to pre
dict the result.

The Pensions Bill.
Washington, May 28 The Senate
Pensions committee to-day voted to re
port the House bill granting pensions
to certain soldiers and sailors of the
Mexican, Creek, Seminole and Black
Hawk Indian wars. The bill provides
that all pensions under it shall be at the
rate of eight dollars percnontbj except
for persons now re;eiying.pejSsion for
less than that' amount? who are' to be
entitled to the difference between the
pension now received and eight dollars
per month. The bill provides that the
provisions of the act shall not apply to
any person while under political disa
bilities imposed by the fourteenth
amendment to the constitution, and re
peals section 4,716 of the 116th Revised
Statutes.which prohibits thepaymentof
pensions to any person, or to widows,
children or heirs of any deceased per
son who voluntarily aided or abetted
the late rebellion.
The Women at Chicago.
Susan B. Anthony and Matilda Joslyn
Gage propose to move on the Republican
convention at Chieago at the head of the
gallant army of female suffragists, and
demand the insertion of the following
plank in the Republican platform :
Resolved, That the right of suffrage
inheres in the citizens of the United
States.and we pledge ourselves to secure
protection in the exercise of this'right
to all citizens, irrespective of sex, by an
amendment to the national nnnst.ifn.
tion.
Miss Anthony says the ladies must,
"by overwhelming force of numbers,"
show their determination to force that
plank in the platform. Miss A. proposes
to make the master effort of her life at
Chicago.
But what was this prooer timft. bef.amfl
the , occasion of great ; differences of
opinion between . leading men. One
side led it may be said by Gov. Jarvis
for he was foremost in the initial move
ment in the Legislature of 1870-71 in
sisted that the proper time had arrived,
the moment then was that majority in
the Legislature prescribed by the Con
stitution for ascertaining the popular
will ; for the people groaned under
present burdens, and clamored for in
stant relief. The other side, on which
Judge Fowle was active, if not specially
prominent, admitted that many changes
in the constitution were needful, but
that it was impolitic to make them
now; that it was safer tp endure the
miseries of an oppressive constitution
than to imperil party success by haste
and jeopardize the safety of the party
by premature action.
Without going into a detail of his
letter to Maj. J. W. Dunham, at that
time editor of the News, it is ennncrh
wsity max juuge x owie field back ;
mat he thwarted the popular will;
that he encouraged the opposition to
reform ; that he kept aloof from public
discussion ; and by the distrust
fomented by the weight of acknowl
edged ability, he aided to build up that
opposition which left the convention
so narrow a margin for its work.
The question is. was the work of the
convention valuable to the State and to
the people ? And if so, where was
Jarvis; and where was Fowle? It
was a difference of opinion ; but a
difference bearing weightily upon the
fortunes of the State. Voters can have
little trouble to decide which of the
two opinions were of most service to
them.
