The C0HyeDtiGM-HtS Ticket and
its Platform,


The Radicals of Ohio, in State Conven-
ton assembled, met in this city on yester-
day and adjourned last evening, after pro-
tracted and stormy ssion.
The members of the last Legislature who
came to the city to demand that justice be
done them, by an endorsement of the negro
suffrage resolution-thus committing the
party to negro voting-wero successful, and
under the name Of Impartial Loyal Man
hood Suffrage" negroes are to be EMIT ed
to all the rights of the whites. The is thus
made--negro suffrage is to be the great
question at the polls, and all who hold that
the negro is the equal, if not superior Of the
white race, is expected to vote the ticket
which flies the negro at its head.
The candidate Tor Governor, Gen. Z. e.
Hayes, of Cincinnati, chosen as the stan.
dard bearer in the contest, is the right man
in the right place. Neither he nor his
friends boast Of his enlarged intellect His
record on Negro Suffrage is good one ior
the dsrkies. He voted for it in Congress,
when, against the wishes and the protest of
the people of the District of Columbia it
was forced upon them, and the capital city
of the nation was given over to the negroes
whose votes controlled the election.
We had hoped that, as the Democratic
party had placed in nomination one of its
best and most talented men for Governor,
that the Republicans would at least have
nominated man OF more than medium tai
ent, but they fell below it. IF the Repub-
lican party admit t1eir nominee to be a rep
resentative man OF the intellect of their
party, we on our side, confidently point to
Judge Thurman as occupying a representa-
tive position in the Democratic party.
The nomination of Mr.. Galloway, as Lieu
tenant Governor, was sore blow aimed at
that gentleman. With talent far above
that of the head OF the ticket, the office is
one that he is least fitted to fill. The duty
assigned to it is more ornamental than use
full and consists alone in being the presid-
ing officer of the State Senate. 1t is ex-
pected of Mr.. Galloway that, in the cam
paign, he is to dc the duty usually assigned
to the head of the ticket, in delivering stump
speeches throughout Ohio, that Gen Hayes
may derive benefit therefrom. Mr.. Gal
loway, although not military man, nor
bread to the art Of war, still has as much
pugnacity as falls to the lot OF most men,
and the curt answer that he gave to the
committee, who waited upon him to get his
consent to run shows that his Keeling are
deeply wounded in thus being slaughtered
in the house Of his friends a victim to the
triumph of expediency over brains.
The balance of the Ticket is bu. a rehash
Of the present imbeciles in power Gen.
Goldman, the chief Of the board Of Fund
Commissioners, and his aid, w. Fl. West,
who rendered him great service in filching
from the Soldiers Relief Fund $500, 900 of
the money raised by taxation to support
the necessitous families Of those who fell in
battle, are again nominated, the former for
Auditor of State, the latter for Attorney
General Col Braily, whose office the Au.
ditor and Treasurer of State did their best,
the two past winters to get abolished as
nseles because, perhaps, It interfred with
their plans, was, against their earnest pro
test, renominated as Comptroller of the
Treasury. Mr.. Warner was Yepominated
for Treasurer Of State. JUICE Welch, of
Athens, was renomnated as Supreme
Judge, and Philip Herzig as the candidate
for Member OF the Board of Public Works.
The Ticket presents a want of harmony
rarely to be met with. The Candidates for
Governor and Lieut. Governor do not hitch
teams at all, while the candidates for An.
ditor, Treasurer and Attorney General are
openly at war with the candidate for Comm
roller, and did their prettiest to defeat his |
nomination.
The Ticket was made to be beaten. Ills
o o'wr1tten IN the beok Of Fate and tho neo. |
Of Ohio, at the polls in October, win |
d it 30 recorded. -Natesinga, Jne20,
