The Pontiac Commercial Announces

by authority, that undev uo coiulitions will Hou. A. C. Bttldwin be a caudidate for Governor. TlIE Republicana in their State Convention 'beid at Detroit last week cordially indorsiii the aduiinistration of Gov. Croswell as "prudent, wise, honest, and ecououiical," but not a single word of conimendation did tbey beatow upon President Hayes. That bribery charge against Senator Grover, of Oregou, has been disposed of to the diasatisfaction of his Kepublican accusera. In the Senate, on Saturday last, Mr. Wadleigh, Republican, chairman of the Couiniittee on Privileges and Elections, reported that "the evidence deiice did not sustain any such charges." The "politicians" in the Republican State Conveution sat down on Hon C. G. Luce, of Branch County, whose friends thought him jast the man to be State Treasurer. Cause : Cyrus was reported unfaithful in the campaign oí 1874. The friends of Bagley aud McCreery have n't forgotten the seare the grangers gave the ui that year. The " bloody shirt " is the banner under which Zack Chandler is to lead the Republican hosts to battle, and flaunting itin the face of the Republioan Greenbacker he expects to bring hiui back to the fold and gather in his vote as usual for the Kepublican ticket. We shall see which is the most potent - the greenback or the revived cry of "rebel." The President has naoiinated Reuben E. Fenton, of New York ; Williaui S. Groesbeck, of Ohio ; and Francis A. Walker, of Connecticut as United States C'omuiiasioners at the proposed International Monetary Conference. One süver tnan - Groesbeck, one single or gold standard man - Walker, aud Fenton, whose position or opinión is doubtful or changeable, as on most all other subjects. The Poat and Tribune of Mouday gave a fac simiU of a aiortgage recen tly taken by that model financier and greenbacker, that friend oi tho laborer, Moses W. Field, the same loses who denounced in the Grand Rapids eonventioa the inoney-lender who is uot satisfd with two and a half per cent., which he claimed to be the average annual accretion of labor. This mortgage was given for the suin of $100, draws interest at ten teh cent., payable sami-annually, beconies due on the first faüure to pay interest at the very date due, and provides for an attorney's fee of $100. The "bloated boudholder" whom Moses holds up to scorn gets froin 4 to 7.3 per cent. And this is the deuiagogue to whom the greeubackers, the grangers, and the laboring men look for financial wisdom, as both prophet and leader.
