chanan prove equally fortunate in his other appointments
he will have the satisfaction OF knowing in dscharg
the people. Mr.. Medil although comparatively young
man, has seen long service in public station. He has
been member of the Ohio legislature member Of Congress-
Commissioner of Indian Affair." member and president OF
the Ohio constitutional convention lieutenant governor
and president of the senate and governor Of Ohio In
each and all OF these responsible positions he bore him
self with ability and dignity which strengthened the
love Of friends and commsAded the respect of opponents
The spotless purity OF his private life united with
integrity in his public relations which nothing could
shake has carried him through many exciting political
contests ia this State where the finest regulations rarely
capped unscathed and almost unquestioned The post OF
frat Comptroller although not generally understood
Is Of great importance. II ranked subordinate
but in all but the patronage and compensation almost
