by actual practical demonstration. that
they will effect speedy aud permanent

y. One of the earliest laws passed.
under the Territorial Government, and
continued under the State Government
was an act regulating Taverns. The
keepers of such houses had to procure
a license, and no one could procure
such license, without having given pub
lie notice of his intention to apply to
the court for such license, and the ap-
plication had to be supported by the re-
commendation Of twelve neighbours
From the proceedings of the court we
learn that in 1904 George Fithian and
Griffith Foos were authorized to keep
tavern in Springfield. On the 18th
March, 1904, James Mcpherson had
license to keep a tavern and on the
oath July in the same year he had lie
ense to sell merchandise. Licences to
sell merchandise were also granted to a
Frenchman named Robetaille and an
other called Alexander Dubois. These
were all Indian traders, and dWelt on

The following is an extract from @ racy
description of Senator Wade, written by
Mack of the Cincinnati Commercial:
"Wade is a man not given, should inn
agine, to close study or dligent reading, but
his intuitions make up for his deficiency in
this respect; they come to his relief always,
and often serve q better purpose than the
bookishness Of other men. Sherman is
man Of close application. student by habit
and inclination and although be NAV have
all of Wsde's faculty for extemporaneous de-
bate or action, he lacks sslf-con6dence to
exercise it. Neither Of the Ohio Senators
can be called finished orators, or orators OF
any kind in the strict meaning OF the word
But Sherman is good rhetorician and q fair
reasoner. Wade speaks sometimes with
more force and effect than his colleague; he
relies less on the force of what he SAYS than
in the vim with which be says IT, A strictly
Ben. Wade speech would be weary, stale,
fat and Improbable effort from hetongue of
almost anybody else. 1t is like the
bay of Ulysses, which could be welded
effectively only by the strong arm of its
owner, and was but cumbrous and ponder
Gus load under any other. 1t is for this rea.
son that TO be influenced BY what be says you
must hear him. and see him, too. You must
| see the OH feilOW get up IN passion, KICK
his chair away to make plsyroom for himself,
put one hand under the breast of his waist
coat; and you must hear him change his
voice from talk TO q scoid, and from Z scold
to roar. This is not oratory, nor rhetoric,
nor defamation, but il is somethinr that
carries it's point in the Senate better than
either. In the old pro slavery days when
Wade and John P. Hale and Sumner were
about the only abolitionists in the Senate, the
Southerners feared the unpublished denuncia.
tons OF Wade more than the SCHOLARLY invec-
tive OF Sumner. have been told By Nj.
Sumner that on one occasion while Wade
vas speaking, Mason, Of Virginia, touched
him (Snmnerl on the shoulder, and, In tone
OF positive fright, said: NY God, see that
man pfancep On another occasion, some
