We call particular attention to the
article, published in another column,
taken from the AaAoning Indes, Of
November 1, 1850, showing up clear
ly the position Of Judge Ranney, a,
that time, in regard to the Fugitive
Slave Law. The Mdhoning /nder
was an out and out Democratic pa
per, whose tone and spirit but fairly
represent the feelings that pervaded
the Democratic masses, before inter-
eeted leaders succeeded in prosti.
tuting the party to slave-holding in
terests.
Now, what is to be thought oi
Judge Ranney, when, in the public
discussions with Mr. Deunison, he
has denied most positively that he
ever pronounced the Fugitive Slave
Law unconstitutional Here is in.
Idisputable proof, derived from a
''simon-pure" Democratic paper, re.
ported at the time the meeting al
ludcd to was held, that ho did pro.
nounce this law unconstitutional. =
Hero We find Judge Ranney side by.
side with Wade. SutliT, IIutchins
and other prominent Free Soilers oi
that day, mot only denouucing the
Fugitive Slave Law as unconsti.
tutional, but resolving in the most
emphatic manner, that he would
resist its enforcement.
Such was Judge Ranney in 1850,
now he stands on the following plank
in the Democratic platform, which
he is defending with all his ability:
"Resolved, That the rendition Of fugitive
slaves, upon demand Of the persons entitled
to their service OF labor, Is q duty imposed
on every state uf the Union by the lie. ms of
the federal compact; that the laws passed by
Congress to secure such rendition, in 1913
and 1880, ought TO be promptly and faithful
ly executed; and that the leaders Of the self |
styled Republican party, in Ohio. by a per.
sistent disregard Of the Constitution Of the |
Uriied States, IN this particular, have shown
themselves unworthy OF the confidence Of /
well'dispoSed, patriotic, and peacesbe cit
zens.'
And Notwithstanding the ground
he once occupied, he takes occasion,
in nearly every speech, to denoupce
the Wellington rescuers, who were
but carrying out, in good faith, the
very resolution be SO earnestly aided
in promulgating less than nine years
since.

County Expense,.

We made a showing last week, of
the growing expenses II Hancock
county, under Democratic rule. We
did this not to charge dishonesty
upon any officer, but to show that
while they charge extravaganza and
a want of economy upon the Repub-
Iicans, when they had control of the
Legislature, and while they promised
a great reform In this respect, they
themselves have utterly failed in re-.
Ideeming their promises, and not only
this but have actually increased the
expenses state and county. As a
typical error appeared in our article
