why Don,t You Indiguatec

The Cleveland Leader of the 18th pub
fishes and calls attention to the School bill.
for the support and regulation of the Pub
lie Schools of Cleveland, introduced by
Senator DANGLER, and which received its
final touches as a law on Tuesday. This
law provides for the election of Members of
the Board of Education, by wards, sat the
annual election of City Officers to be held on,
the first Monday of april" When it was
proposed to pass bill providing tor the
election of our Members of the Board OF
Education tat the annual election of City
Officers" on the first Monday in April, the
Journal protested against it as an infamous
outrage; that it was mixing up of poll
tics and school matters in way that would
result in the overthrow of our public
schools. Ii we mistake not, the Cleveland
Republican press helped swell the din
Neither the journal nor the Cleveland Re-
publican press protest against this mix
ing up politics and school matters in Cleve-
land. Why don't they indignate? Now
if it is right to elect Members of the Board
of Education in Cleveland on the same day
that the municipal officers are elected, why
is it not right that in Columbus they
should be elected on the same day? LIE

ssThe Democratic Penalty for Ed
ucafiOn.o
The Cincinnati Commercial is pretentious,
and in the matter of news enterprise it has
foundation for that pretention; but this
does not involve the necessity of its indulg-
ing in foolish comments in regard to Mr..
REx's bill to preserve the purity of cleo
tions, which requires that students shall
vote at their recognized homes, just be-
cause the Ohio State Journal has made fool
of itself in relation thereto. There is moth
ing in Mr.. REx's bill, in language or in in
tention, to render it worthy, as the Com
mercial claims, of the designation, "a bill to
discourage education and promote whole
some ignorance" This bill of Mr.. REX,
which has furnished the text for splenetic.
malicious and untruthful comments of the
Republican press, aims to settle by law
what has been settled in Massachusetts,
of that State, and which has been
settled in New York, Maine and Cali
fornia in their Constitutions, that
students are not entitled to vote at the
places where they are in attendance on in
stitutions of learning solely for the pur-
pose of acquiring an education, unless such
place is their recognized home. Will the Com
n,ercial answer whether the Supreme Court
of the State of Massachusetts,, in deciding
that student in attending an institution of
learning, 'Gnd residing there solely for the
purpose of education loould not of itself give
him a right to vote there" did discourage ed
ucation and promote wholesome ignorance ~
Will the Commercial answer, whether the
people of New York, Maine and Califor-
MIA, by providing in their respective State
Constitutions, that the residence of stu
dent at any seminary of learning shall not
entitle him to the right of suffrage in the
town where such seminary is established,
did commit the grave folly to discourage
education and promote wholesome ig-
norance?"

these points

The stupidity Qua1iacasIon

The editor of the Journal seems 10 his
element when he is engaged in disparaging
the members of the Democratic party.
The purpose of the Journal yesterday
morning seemed to be to see how despica-
BILE it could make itself. If its assertions
had the merit OF truth there is no intelli-
gence. no virtue, no morality in the Demo-
cratic party, and these grand virtues
are bane to Democracy. DOM PIATT was
quoted as authority for the assertion that
1.-The Democratic party is the organized ig-
norance of the country" Care was taken
not to quote DoNN's volunteered testi-
mony that s.from the hour of LINcoLN's
inauguration until his death the
thieves were all in Office" and that
the audacity with which they stole as
founded and terrified. So if the Demo-
cratic party is ''the organized ignorance of
the country" it is better to be that even
than the polished scoundrels and thieves
who have for seven years robbed the
Federal Govern n ent, until the people from
being the lightest taxed, the freest and
happiest people on earth, have become the
heaviest taxed, and whose Government has
been virtually revolutionized. 1t suited
the taste of Mr.. KERR, of jefferson, if the
Journal has correctly reported him, to say
on Wednesday, in opposing the passage of
the bill prohibing persons from voting who
have "visible admixture of African
blood" that he did not .'belong to the party
that took Negroes and Mulattoes to their
embraces in good old slavery times" No;
but he and his Republican associates in the
General Assembly have stoutly resisted the
enactment of law that withholds suffrage
from the offspring of such villainous cohab-
iting. They have undertaken to do more.
By this action of theirs, so far as it was
in their power to do so, they
have offered premium tor un-
lawful cohabiting between Whites
and Blacks. The people of Ohio have de-
cided by about fifty thousand that Negroes
shall not yet be allowed to vote in this
State. If "visible admixtures," therefore,
were allowed to vote, that class of people
will increase rather more than they would
under other circumstances because when
the Government holds out to Negro wo-
man this inducement to part with honor
when the Government dignifes an illicitly
begotten child with s'visible admixture,"
and correspondingly degrades legitimate
ly begotten son of her own race-virtue is
not likely to be promoted. 1t is to this Vi
ciousness that the Journal and its Republic
can colaborers pander, and it is against it
that the Democratic party in the Legisla-
ture is legislating.

Horoscope of the Republican Par

The Cincinnati Commercial on Wednesday
drew the horoscope of the Republican par
ty. 1t drew it carefully and painstakingly.
According to this horoscope, it has before
it dark and dreary future. Nothing but
honesty and economy in the administra-
ton of the Government will save it. On
these terms it can not be saved. As well
hope for the Devil to become devoutly
pious.

THE Cleveland Leader is determined to de-
serve the character BEN. WADE ascribed to
it, as being the "d-dest meanest paper in
Ohio.n 1t says that ''the students in our
Ohio Colleges are" "better qualified for
the intelligent use of the ballot than the
Democratic legislators" Now, for the ed
itor of the Ohio State Journal to say some
thing of this sort was natural; for the edi-
tor Of that concern was born a fool, and he
has been failing ever since his birth; but
the Leader should haye more sense than to
use such expressions.
