Radical Majorities Reduced, and
the Democratic Majority Inoreas-

w SAA AA~NAAANSAS SA SNhN4OR
The Radical press claim that the
action Of Congress in keeping the
country in a state of turmoil and
the Union disunited, was endorsed
by the late election by the election
OF Gen. Grant as President. On
this issue the proper test was on
the election of members of Con-
gress. Tried by this we find:
At the Congressional election, in
Ohio, in 1866, the Republican ma
jority in the 1st District was 926-
this year the Districtelected a Dem
ocrat by 2l1 majority.
In the I'd District two years ago,
Hayes (Repablican) for Congress
had a majority OF 1858. At the
election this tall that majority was
reduced to 497. e
In the Sd District, Schenck's (Re
publican) majority two years ago,
was 1097-this fall but AIS.
In the4th District, Lawrence IRE.
publican) two years ago, had 2,254
IinIorfty5 this fail but 6z9.
In the 9th District, the Demo
cratic majority for Mungen was g.
652 this fall it sweled to 1876.
In the 9th District, two years ago
the Republican majority for Con.
gress was l,596--this fall but 343.
In this, the 7th District, Shellabar-
ger (Rep) had, two years since, q
majority of 2,l7l-this year his sue.
cessor, Winans, has but 105.
In the Sth District, the Republl.
can majority in 1866 was 1852
this fall but 94S.
In tho 9th District, the Republi
can majority, two years since, was
l,2S7--this year it is 1886 Demo.
c attic.
In the 10th District, Ashley Gre
publican), of impeachment memory
two years since carried his D strict
by 1917 majority-this year Hoag
Dem. beats Ashley 912.
In the 11th District, the Republi.
can majority of 3,33S in 1866. III
1868 ia reduced to 2,126.
Judge Van Trump's (Dem.) ma
iority in the 18th District two years
ago of 3,2l0, is increased this fall tc
1913.
In the 18th District, Gen. Nor
gan, two years since, received 27l
majority. His Republican compel.
itor, Delano, contested the election
and was unfairly given the seat
This year, Delano fearing to run, 8
more popular Republican was put
forward, and Morgan's majority
was increased to ,654.
Welker, (Rep.) had a majority in
1866 of 1877 in thcl4th District
This year it is reduced to 462.
Two years ago the Republican
majority in the 18th District wat
> Ne4-this year it is reduced tc
In the 16 District, John A. Bing-
ham (Rep) was elected, two years
since, by | ,422' This year he is re,
elected by 4l6.
In the 18th District, the Republi.
can majority two years ago, was A..
642-this year it is reduced to g.,
1896.
In the 18th District, the Republi,
can majority of 6.555 in 1866 was
reduced at the late election to s.
379.
In the 18th District, the Radical
majority of 1926 two years ago
was reduced at the October election
ofthe present gear to 10,428.
Thus it will be seen that in everv

of Congress as the test, and the
action of the Radical Congress at
issue. the Republicans lost and the
Democracy gained Ohio States

ALL ABOUT PRINTING Movable
types we're not used until the ff-
teenth century.
Books were printed By the Chi
Enese and other Eastern nations
from engraved blocks long before
the invention Of types.
The first types were of wood.
The same material is still much
used for the larger varieties ot
letters.
Johannes Gutenberg is gener-
ally believed to have been the first
to manufacture movable types.
An edition of Donatus was the
first book printed from movable
types.
The first letters were characters
initiating handwriting.
Printing was introduced into
Paris ia 1470; into London four
years later.
Roman type was first made in
1855. Italic about the year 1900.
Type founding was formerly a
part Of the business Of a printer,
and was declared distinct art by
decree Of the Star Chamber III
1857.
The largest size Of type used for
books is Great Primer the smaller
sizes are English, Plea, Small Plea,
Long Primer, Bourgeois, BREWER,
Minion, Minionette, Nonpareil,
Agate, Pearl, Diamond and Bril-
liant.
Pearl is the smallest type found
in ordinary printing offices.
Agate is the smallest type used
for setting advertisements In any
American newspaper. 1T is Jill fa-
vor with those papers which, from
their large editions and the GREAT
demand for their columns, are ne-
cessltated to economic space.
The type in most general use
Tor advertisements is Nonpareil.
Those which use larger are gener-
ally Of a poorer class for whose
advertising columns there ID little
demand.
Ia America printers are paid by
the thousand ems; (na an en- being
equivalent to about two letters. In
England the matter is measured
by ems, (n) two thousand 81 which
equal one thousand ems.

Military Commander and Of the
provisions Of the city charter, were
about TO proceed to the election Of

New Orleans. Radical pressure
and importantly have been brought
To bear on Gen. Grant to induce
him to interfere ia this matter. It

for b man charged with the high
responsibility and duties Of Gen.
Grant. After d universal approval

the General Of the Armies to de-
liver himself over absolutely into
the hands of the CGrpet-b aggers.
There never was SO flimsy d ground |
for interference with an officer Of
such high authority aud command.
The facts are as follows: Gastinel
was elected Recorder of the Second
District III March, 1866. His de-
feated opponent sued out a writ Of
qao aCQrranto to GUST him, on the /
ground that 10 was not of the le-
gal age. The case went to the Su-
prene Court, and that tribunal de- ]
cided more than eighteen months
ago that Gastinel was not of the
legal age, and ordered the Council
to proceed To an election TO Fill the
vacancy. But after this the Legis-
lature passed an act which quail
fed Gastinel, and he became eligi-
bic by course of time. But the
decision Of the Supreme Court was
held up by petitions for rehearing
until about a month ago, when, for
the first time, the decision rendered

final The Supreme Court had
never an opportunity Dc passing

The case was decided on the ORR
