On Saturday, whom tho question was
on the passage Of the bill, the amend

Barley said:
"But The individual liability provision
in the bill is a MERE SHOW, cHanmgiy

And now in view Of all these crcum
stances, what do we behoId2 4 Com r.
mitiee in Cleveland becotno alarmed, at
the signs of the times and ask Mr.. Tod
certain questions touching his views on

this may seem, It's truth is paIpabe a.

And that is Dduid Tod, the LoColocc

as Governor Shannon! This is The man
in behalf Of whom tho rotcS Of the peo.
pie are asked, in whom they nre asked
to place their confidence and 10 whose
keeping they are called upon TO enlrus
their interests! What! expect the peo
pI0 OF Ohio 10 rally under the banner q

confidence that no may betrdy them!
| Never, never! Poor, weak man; nglo
riousy did he open the campaign
but more lngloriou8ly for him will II
