The Ohio Statesman rejoices over the
fact that If you throw out Of consideration
the Western Reserve, the State is Demo-
cratic. That reminds Us of the query put
to DR.. Samuel L. Mitchell. the New

sheep was greater than that of black ones?
The doctor gave many learned reasons.
but finally asked the farmer if he had
any theory on the subject. EYES," was
the reply. at is because there are more
white sheep than black ones" We

The Public expenditures.

We have in preceding numbers of our paper
exposed as we think eecualy, the hypocritical cry
of ECONOMY" which the coali,ionists have raised
as the single watch-word of the present campaign.
Without referring particularly to the brief expert
ment which the opponents of the Democratic party
made in ls4l and the prohigscy and corruption of
that experiment, which still stnks in the nostrils
of the people; or to the Fillmore administration,
when even cabinet officers took fees as counsel
against the Government or became shsTers in the
proceeds of fraudulent claims, we have subjected
these professions of economy to another test of sim
eerity and shown by the record that the very appro
priRtions now denounced as extravagant we're made
by opposition votes in Congress. We have shown
by the record that the appropriations by Demo-
cratic House of Representatives less by several
millions than were voted by preceding opposi-
ton House, and that the reduction was made
against the votes of majority Of the opposition.
These facts are conclusive to the point We desired
to establish that the extravaganza bypocriical
ly complained of was inaugurated by this very OPP
position and that but for democratic votes it would
have been carried TO an infinitely greater extent.
These things proved by the record, well as by
the experience the country has had Of the men and
the party of the opposition whenever they have been
for the moment entrusted with power. During the
whole of even the last session Of Congress, at the
moment when the editors of the opposition all over
the country we're raising The cry of democratic
extravaganza" the Members of Congress of that
party we're engaged mainly in effort to increase
the expenditures of the Government in order to pro-
duoe deficiency in the revenue which would res
quire On incrt of its taxes by a revision of the
tariff; while the effort of the democrats was to re.
duce the expenditures of the Government to It's in
come This effort was successful at the last session
by the votes of democrats against the votes of the
opposition.
Such being the facts it is useless for the Patriot
to attempt TO evade their force by saying that the
democratic President and Senate should have check
ed The extravaganza of the opposition House of
Representative of 1867. On the contrary, We use
these facts as demonstration that, with only one
branch of the legislature in their hands, The expen
ses of the Government we're enormously increased
and the money of the people eOrrupty and waste
fully expended, by that branch the Treasury would
be speedily bankrdpted were beth branches and the
Executive in their hands. Such has been the result
of trusting the who now call themselves the oP-
POSITION: such would be the result were the expert
ment TO lie tried again.
