SESSION OHIO STATESMAN

We propose to issue the STATESMAN, during the er
suing session of the Ohio Legislature, on the following
terms, viz
TRI-wEEKLY, SO 90
SEMI-WEEKLY, so
WEEKLY, ! 90
Persons subscribing, will please designate which pa
per it is that they desire.
The approaching session fthe Ohio LEGISLATURE will
be one of more than usual interest to all parties The
Corwin administration will be in progress-hie naugur
al will have developed his measures or rather the mea
sures Of the Bankers end Abotoniss that elected him
and in whose hands he is.
When these measures are presented to the Legisla
ture by Governor Corwin, is his duty by the const
tuition, the tug of war will commence in the Legislature
and, for the first time for years. the people will have an
opportunity of seeing what the principles of whiggery
really in practice, and fair comparison can be
made between the doctrines of the parties touching
the great interests of equal rights and constitutional
government
We shall have good reporters, and use what industry
we are capable of employing our paper to give a
correct and extensive view of all their doings: and the
first curious item will be law reducing tn salaries of
all the officers in the State, promised to the people,
The next will be- to raise the wages of flabor-increase
the price of wheat and pork introduce the negroes
fresh from Kentucky into courts as witnesses, and
into schools; but not into our Colleges where
Bankers children congregate. All these hard cider and
coon skin movements will be recorded with care and
precision, and when necessary, made into first Tppe-
songs, and sung to keep the members spirits up
0erAnd the scheme already on foot, as we are in
formed, to chain down the people by great Bankma
chnery, powerful than the Russian Autocrat, will
be watched with due care. Let the people read aud
judge for themselves
The proceedings Of Congress will also be duly given
as heretofore S. g. nj. H. MEDARY.

TIE ELECTIONS.

ALABAMA.-1he Democratic majority in iht
State of Alabama, as officially announced, is s, 800
The Democratic majority in the Legislature is Is
MIssoURi..-The st. Louis Argus Of the 2l,l
ult says that the Democratic majority for Govern
or, it is now ascertained, will not vary much from
EIGHT THOUSAND
lLLINoIs.-Thc wings last year had the Legs
lature, and at the late gubcrnatorinl election the
Democratic candidate succeeded by majority oil
nine huadred aad aiaciy-sir. AT the recent cleo
ton, the Democrats carried both branches of the
Legislature by majority, on. joint ballot, OF
TWENTY THREE; and majority of the popular
vote exceeding FIVE THOUSAND.
1NDIANA.-The official returns of the election
show an immense increase Of the aggregate vote
being 10 1853 This excess over the vote of SO,
is within 30,S06 of the uhole number given that
year. The aggregate vote then was 10, 959-now
ii is 1921 And yet, notwithstanding this pro-
digious increase of votes, The feierdl majority is
less than IL trds in 1886 ty l4S Showing that
Harrison and hard cider is actually OIL the Decline

From all parts of the Union we learn that bust
ness is reyiying fast, Money is easy, and every
thing as it should be, The panic-makers are in
terrible distress at this, The good crops put them
in perfect fever The fine state Of the money
market, if it do not change for the worse soon, will
carry them Off in a body, 1t is too bad to cry
for " war, pestilencc and famine" to visit the
land, to aid British whiggcry and British gold in
securing the oscendency of certain political party
and then to find benelcent Providence turning q
deaf ear; too bad, really too bad. Something must
be done speedily.

The following is an extract from Mr.. Webster:
recent Harrison speech at Saratoga:
"Let us compare this declaration with that O
one now numbered with the mighty dead--of one
who has left behind reputation exceed by that O
no other man, as understanding thoroughly the Con
stituton-of one born and cradled with it, takin!
part in its inception, and closing his public career
by administering its highest Office need not nam,
James Madison"
Yet how often, from 1909 TO 1917, did Mr.. Web
ster charge on this same James Madison the odiou,
crime of acting under French inference? of travel
ling in the odous footsteps of his democratic pre-
decessor, Thomas JEFFERSON, whom MIR. Wcbste
equally reviled How often did he charge then
both with wicliedly running their country, by en-
bargocs, on-lntercourse, and war;
And did not the present great champion of IIar
rison, who now so euogizes James Madison, op
pose the whole of his administration with the mos
bitter vrulence--resSt and hwart all his war meas
ures--and cheer on his federal friend, Cyrus King
TO declare in Congress that this same James Madi
son deserred a haiier We pause for reply

Mr. Coolidge will, we doubt not, be elected
Speaker of the House, Who his opponent will be,
really we cannot tell, We hear Mr. Shatuck, Of

fair competitor Our own predictions on hasty
opinion, are in favor of the latter gentleman, How
ever we are not strenuous.

DESPERATION or FEDERALISM.

Since the brutal murder of DAVIS through the
agency of the leading fcdcrasts of St, Louis, muir
derous attacks upon prominent democratic editor,
by federal DULLES have become very frequent
Among the most recent and fragrant Of these out
RACES by this sell-constuted decency party, we no.
tice late attempt to assassnate the able and fear
less editor of the Columbus OhiO Statesmen, s
MEDARY, Esq, The zeal and fidelity with which
this journal has huitlcd for the democracy, and tho
fahiulnes5 with which it has exposed the corrup
tons Of federalism and its imbccilc ''availablc, y
has rendered its conductors peculiarly obnoyou,
10 that faction. The rutliun who attacked Mr.
Nedary, was a midShipman, named Schcnck Oh
SAwph, who was backed up by rabhe of bankers
blacl>legs and runans, all seeking the blood of al
unarmed unoilending man. The villain, however
failed in his attempt, aud after getting soundll
foggcd, was rescued by his friends and borne oil
This is the usual fate of these cowardly miscrennts
who Imagine they can silence and intimidatc the
democracy by violence and assassnalon.--.N H.

AT Hamilton, also, as we learn from gentlemen
who were present, 10000 or IL 900 people coec-
