Message of Governor Chase.
The Cleveland Herald well says

The Cleveland Herald well says
This document in its dignity Of character
clearness of diction, and throughness ofcom-
prehcnsion, would lend lustrc to library of
culled State papers. 1t has loftliness,
bcftting the Message of a Governor of a
sovereign State, which lifts it clear from the
bespatterings of partizan zeal, and thus
stands in bold and beautiful contrast with
the Presidents last message and those of
the Administration Governors Of the differ
cnt States. We thank Governor Chase
for furnishing a model which is well worthy
the imitation of Statesman. 1t is docu-
ment which will add grace to the Executive
Archives of Ohio. Notwithstanding the
opportunity for covering tho late State Adj
ministration all over with infamy, Gov.
Chase contents himself with an unvarnished
statement of figures, letting them speak of
the corruption which boiled and bubbled in
Ohio when a Republican triumph arrested
the spend-thrift recklessness and dishonesty
of so called Democratic Government
Even the direct insult from the Executive
of Mississippi could not tempt Gov. Chase
from tho straight forward path of his duty,
but with dignity becoming his station, he
lays the whole correspondence, without com
ment, before the Legislature. The grievous
wrongs done to citizens of Ohio, whose
crime is that ofdevotion to Freedom in Kan
sas, did not lead to any political discussion,
but with magnanimity which has not its
counterpart in any Democratic Message VIC
have seen, does Gov. Chase award to the late
State Administration, and present degraded
National Administration, full credit where
there could be found an act deserving Of
approval.
The Message not only is elegant as a
literary composition, and critically correct
but it is also a masterly business document
The map ofour State Affairs is as clear as q
set of bank books, and Gov. Chase has ii
no way lost sight of the detail of our State
affairs, while keeping an eye to the weight
Ter matters of Government.
Wo do not propose to review this Mess
ago, it is so plain and straightforward tha
it clucidatcs itself, and nothing can be ad
dcd to it. Our only intention is to avov
our admiration for the Message, anil thu
pride we feel at the complete success whicl
has attended the Republican party of Ohio
and the able, fearless and dignified bearing
of Gov. Chase, in his walk AMI talk as TIN
Executive head of our well beloved State.
