Judge Ranney, in order to get rid Of
the force Of his Wilmot Proviso letter,
written 10 Huffman in 1913, expressing
sentiments which he said then were
"honestly entertained" puts in the plea
Of non-accountability. He says he had
not then arrived at years Of sound dsore-
ton and that he has since discovered that
what he then advocated was not tho true
doctrine. This may be one way to get
out Of bad predicoment, but II is
certainly a very humilistinq and cow
ardly one. In isi8, when Judge Ran
ney wrote the letter referred to, ex-
pressing sentiments directly opposite to
those he now holds, he was - years Of
oge-quiis a laby tru'y,--and thought
himself wise enoughto DO candidate for
Congress. Two years amer he was suc.
fcicntly adult to be elected member Of
tho constitutional Convention and in a
year or two more he had made such rapid
progress, as to be capable, in his own cs-
timation, ofsittng on the Supreme Bench
Of the state.

Governor Mogoflin, the Democratic
Governor elect of Kentucky, was inaug-
uratcd a few days ago. In his address he
laid down the following as the Demo-
cratic doctrine Of the South upon the
slavery question;
"Tho Territories arc the property orthe
States, and all have an equal right to 90
there with their property, and to be pro-
tcctcd in it, enjoyment. Thcpcoplc who
cmigrate there have the right to, and will
determine for themselves, whether they
will or will not hHvc slavery when they

The proposition of Mr. Grow. allowing

Importance to democrats, than opening up
tic unoccupicd lands orthc West for free
Immigration
The slovcholding democracy are oppos-
ed to dividing up the territories into small
rnrms and giving them out to actual set
tiers, because il encourages immigration
and builds up free states. They know
that the adoption OF such system would
be an clloctunl barrier TO the spread Of
slavery, which is the great dcsdcratum of
the democratic party. Hence they want
to discourage free Immigration and give
the lands 10 railr5nd corporations, land

From the Cleveland Herald,
The Discussion at Cleveland,

The discussion on yesterday, between
Mcssers, Dennison and Ranney, was con-
Quoted with that courtesy and good breed
ing that have characterized all these dis
cuss ous between the two. As it has been
since these debates commenced, so it was
yesterday, the Republicans left the
ground in the highest spirits, satisfied that
although the idea of these debates ori-
ginNted in a democratic trick to thus get
the speeches of their candidate before
Republican readers, yet the result OF
these discussions will but heighten en-.
thusiasm in behalfof the able and invinci.

Mr.. Dennison probably made the bold
est charge in his speech here Of any o.
these debates. He jumped, from the
start, right into the middle of SLAYER,

orators of the land.

who, like Pugh, Manypenny, and Stafford
