evidence adducel in the Surratt case on Sat

motion submitted by the defense to tie allowed

desired the opportunity OF questioning the
witnesses themselves first, and then to contra

Gen. hays and Judge thurman.

Gen. Hays, in a speech at Cincinnati,
Wednesday night, said:
FELLOW CITIZENs:-I really do not know
what the facts are in regard to the close
contest which we are now considerlng.-
You have always heard as proverb that
figures don't lie. 1t occurs 10 me that the
man who was the author Of that saying
could not have been familiar with the elec
ton returns in Ohio, or he would have
changed the proverb by striking out the
word mot and inserting some other word
so that it would read figures often do lie.-
Feeling my friends, the uncertainty ot all
these things, | accept your congratulations
with some allowance. However, 1t gives
me an opportunity of saying one or two
things that perhaps | might as we'll say. -
/ say nothing that it will be necessary to
take back in case the result should be diff
erent tomorrow. One of the agreeable
facts in connection with this contest is what
has transpired in the debates throughout
the State between the distinguished gentle
man who was my competitor and myself;
1t has always been my desire N all political
contests so to talk and so to act as to to give
no Just cause of offense to any reasonable
adversary; and am grati6ed to know by
the published speeches of Judge Thurman
that he has telt toward me, during the ca--
vass, as man feels toward fair and can
did adversary, | can say to you that that
is my feeling toward hin feel that what
ever mistakes he may have made in his
public life, in this contest, in his conduct
toward me- he hrs behaved ike friend
and gentleman.
Gen. Hays conduct through the cam
paign was honorable and manly, and we
know he despised all such poor devils as
Deacon Gray who assailed the personal
character of Allen G.. Thurman.

The Necessity for "a New Com
gressiODal AppOrtiOnmem emt.

This year, although the Republicans in
Onio have an apparent majority on their
State ticket, the Democracy carry thirteen
of the nineteen Congressional districts into
which the State is divided. Last year, the
Democracy, by their vote, were entitled to
eight members out of the nineteen, yet
they secured but three. These facts ought
to prove to both parties that the present
Congressional apportionment does not Sc
cure proper representation to the people
of Ohio. 1t does NOT give to minorities
their rights, and it does give to majorities
far more members than they are entitled
to. We must have a new apportionment
from the Legislature, which will give to
each party in the State, at all elections,
where they are nearly divided, about one
half Of the Representatives. We want the
whole people Of Ohio represented in Con
gress, and not part of them, as at press
ent. We do not desire what is called a
Democratic ''gcrrymandcr" by the State,
nut we do ask tor an apportionmert that
shall give to each party a fair chance tor
half Of the members. The Republicans.
as we'll as the Democrats, ought to favor
this proposition.

No STAMP ON IT. "A good joke came off
quite recently at courthouse. A person
living a short distance out Of the village Is
in the habit of .equently coming into town
and drinking to inebriation. At such seaN
sons he is apt to call on his Honor, Judge
NJ. Recently, he made one of his
visits, became decid lly tipsey, called upon
Judge NJ. and desired the Judge to
write him pledge, asserting his intention
to cease drinking. His honor wrote the
pledge, as desired, and the tipsey indivd'
ual affixed his name thereto. He then de-
sired to have the pledge that he might take
it home and exhibit it to his wife His
honor thought he was himself the proper
custodian of the important agreement, but
yielded to the solicitations OF the man, at
the same time assuring him that if he broke
the contract, and appeared before him
again in state of intoxication, he
would have him locked up. \ week
elapsed and the Judge was confronted by
the same man, as tipsey as aforetlmes. -
"How is this? Judge NJ, said the tlpsey
fellow, ''you think am fool? know
what am about. I'll show you il am a
fool!" and he drew forth his wallt from
his pocket, took out lis pledge, unfolded its
worn creases, and holding it up triumph
