Approaching its Emd.

The Republican party is Enthusiastically
approaching its dissolution. Its originators
never intended that it should be permanent
party. 1t was only based upon one princi.
pie and one idea, and that was Of an ebony
color. 1t has served its purpose, and like
all other parties which the oppos ition has
reared against the Democracy, it can not
stand the "test Of time and the scrutiny OF
the people," Its platform now lies like an
unsightly pile in the gutter, and the party
which made it is "passiDg away-passing

usage of the Democracy, and vote the full
ticket. Let US have an even vote through

The Difference.

When the Republican Legislature of Ohio
saw that the State Treasury was being plum.
dered, they repealed the law Furnishing the
Treasurer for embezzement.
When the last Democratic Legislature
assembled they went to work and passed O
