The Republican State Convention re.
solved in favor of Retrenchment and Re-
form. Certain Republican papers clamor
for it. Why this resolu ton and this clamor!
1t is because Retrenchment and Reform
are absolutely needed. The taxes are out
rageously high, because the Republican off,
cials, Federal, State, County and Munich
pal, have used the money of the people
with reckless disregard of honesty and
economy. 1t, therefore, sounds gratefully
to the tax-ridden people for a party to re-
solve in favor of Retrenchment and Re-
form; but it must be ofinfnitely more sat-
isfaction to them to have party practice
1t. The Democratic party In the Legislature,
mindful of the Interests of the people, have
instituted inquiry to ascertain what the
State Government can be rightfully and
properly administered for. They have
passed through the House an appropriation
bill, that is liberal in its provisions, and
appropriates nearly half million dollars
less than was appropriated last year by a
Republican Legislature. II there had been
sincerity in the Republicans when in State
Convention they resolved in favor of Re-
trenchment and Reform, this appropria-
ton bill would be hailed with great satis-
faction by the Republican press, and they
would commend highly the members of
the Legislature for passing it; but not so.
The Journal denounces 'the appropria-
tions for different purposes " as of "the
most niggardly dimensions )" and declares
that "the people of this great Common
wealth will not sanction this small beer
business" 1t is just $" this small beer bus
mess" that they aoiH "sanction." They
want the expenses of the Government cut
down. Let the Journal and its party
friends go before the people and denounce
the Democratic members of the Legislature
as guilty of contemplate piece of busi-
ness because they had the nerue to inaugu-
rate Retrenchment and Reform in making
appropriations, and see how much capital
they can make out of that. The more the
Legislature shall cut down the appropria.
tions the better the people will like them
They need have no fear that in this matter
they will offend the people.

tai1ing the lock step, all patiently
awaiting their turn to deposit the

Exceeding good humor prevailed
between the parties, except at one
time, when a prominent democratic
politician in loud voice proposed to
get ups mob because the board were
about to allo Y Mayor Hawley to vote
ahead of his time, on account Of his
age. The election, however, went on
just the sIme, and the polls were clos
ed at 7.30 in the utmost good order
Only 1903 votes were cast, out of
over 1900 registered, which was less
than was expected, yet nearly 100
more than we ever gave before.
1t is agreed upon all hands that the
delay occasioned by the new system
of voting, renders it imperatively
necessary, that this precinct should
be divided into at least two voting
places.
