and better would 1t have been for the honor oi
the State--for the interests of Ohio--for the
general prosperity Of the people--had the ses
sion of 1889 never been held. A compound
of stupidity and Improdence comprised the ma
jority, whose operations during the winter
have caused patriots to tremble with fear, and
honest folk to hang their heads for very shame.
Men, in society but ciphers, have here, as the
instruments of political knaves, been so aggre-
gated as to sway all immense power. That
power has been welded to the injury of the
State, none but the most unblushing partisan
will dare deny; and that the injury has not
been far greater, the people must thank the
gallant Wings of the Assembly and few
members of the majority, who, time and again,
shrank from plunging with their reckless lea
ders into the profounder depths of the party
mre. But they are dispersed--the wise, the
wicked, and the Indifferent; and the better por-
ton of the goodly inhabitants, of this Com
monwealth will now "breathe freer and deep
err"
What has this vaunted ''Reform" party
done? "a vast amount Of good" exclaims
the Locofoco recipient of TWENTY FIVE THOU
sAND DOLLARS of the Peoples money, paid
him for printing hundreds and thousands of
pages, which engaged the attention of one
Assembly, only to be rejected by the other.-
ga vast amount of good" Yes; "good" for
the State Printer; "good" for Auditor Brongh;
good for the Secretary Harlan;" good for
Benz. Tappan; good for batch of newly y-crca-
ted Bank Commissioners; "good" for William
Wall and his Vanocratc associates of the
Board of Public Works; "good" for all the
officeholders who have eaten the corn, and left
a crib full of cobs for the People! Oh, these
very "reformers" are most excellent fellows
most consumate humbugs! We prophecy
that the voice of the People will whistle over
their political graves in October, as the winds
of that season moan through the branches of
dead forests trees.
What an outcry had we last year, from these
same precious office -holders, about the high
taxes. We should like to rest the result Of the
next election on this veryquest, ION. Let the peo-
ple-the tax-paying yeomanry-remembe the
pledges made last fall, about reduction of
taxes, and cast their votes for the humpuggers
or against them, as they shall find their taxes
increased or diminished, and we fear not the
result. We feel just as confident that the
Vanocrats would pass into the minority, as we
are that the taxes nave not been lessoned.
But this is not the time to 60 at length into
a statement of the broken pledge OF the Refor.
mers. They shall all be indellbly traced upon
the forehead of the party, by another pen, be-
fore the People are called to pass upon the
hollow bypocrites at the next election.-Reg.

The WABASH VALLEY decidedly one Of the
most fertile portions of the West. The re-
gion is famous for corn, pork, and beef. 1t is
estimated that 80 900 hogs have been slaugh-
tered in the Wabash the past season, worth at
least $1,000 ,0O0 in the Southern market. The
quantity of Beeftoo is large, 6 or 700 head
Of cattle being packed at Terre Haute alone.
The completion of the Wabash and Erie
Canal will divert portion at least Of this trade
into different thannel, and give increased
animation to the Lake carrying business.
