The election in Ohio next fall
will turn, as it should, on questions
Of State policy, economy in State
expenditures, and the merits of
State legislation. lhe Democracy
know that these "are their weak
points and are striving to make
the "nigger" the vital issue of the
campaign. They might as well
offer the Mexican War, or Shay's
rebellion, as a basis of discussion.
Every Republican in Ohio, we pre-
sumo, is in favor of the Fifteenth
Amendment; but we are fighting
this battle upon matters of prac-
tical and domestic nature. The
people don't wish to pay'three prices
anylonger tor the privilege OF hav-
ing a Democratic debating society
at Columbus. Our Democratic
friends may as we'll conclude to
,faco the music. fer this is the in
dictmentt6 which'they must make

The Wrong Smell.

A high officer of the Sons Of
Temperance. presenting himself
with the smell of grog he had been
drinking upon him, at the door OF
a "division" for admission, was
waited upon by an Irish sentinel,
TO whom he gave the password,
when the following passed:
"Sir," said he, san yez are Mis-
ter O'Wright, the Grand Worthy
Patriarch of the State of Khain>
tucky, / do be afther belavin,'
"Yes," said jim, "you are per-
fectly right, my friend; but why
do you ask the question:
"To tell yez the truth, then, sir,
and shame the devil" said Pat,
"yez do be havin' the right pass
word for Son of Temperance, en-
tirely; but by the Holy Virgin
and tho blessed Saint Patherick,
yez got the wrong smell"

they would experience relief
They acted on the suggestion, and

And Samyule drawed his jack knife forth,

ADastardly Outrage Repeated

A DaStaruly outrage ICepeaCeu.
Less than q mouth ago about
1900 fruit trees belonging to Mar>
tin Green, of Boston, Harbor, Mich
igan, composing splendid orchard
were girdled by vandal hands.
The entire community turned out
TO save the trees-men, women and
children setting to work with
grating wax and bandages to save
as many Of the trees as possible
Their labors were crowned with
abundant success. The wax sup
piled the place of the bark, and the
trees continued vigorous growth.
But the scoundrel was not to be
balked Of his revenge or MALICE
A week ago the orchard was again
entered, the trees completely gir-
died and there seems 10 be no
doubt that this time the work OF
destruction is effectually DONE
The splendid orchard is now but n
field of dead and decaying tree
trunks, their greenness departed,
and all prospects Of resuscitation
vanished. The loss is at least
$40, 900. The affair creates great
excitement.--SprinNfeld Republic.
