GIVE US PRACTICAL ECONO.
MY.

Is the imperative demands Of the
American people, in the administra-
ton of Nation and State affairs.
The Republican party is pleged to
practice economy and those officers
who fail to meet the just expectation
of the people will be held to strict
account by them. On Tuesday of
last week Mr. Dawes of Massachu-
setts, delivered speech against ex-
travagant expenditures which was
called out, says the Cleveland Lea
der, by the bill which proposes to
remove the navy yard at Philadel-
phia to League Island, for which an
appropriation of SS0O,OO0was asked
This being time of peace, the build
ing of new navy yards can be very
well postponed, Mr.. Dawes thinks,
till some future time when the
country is better able to afford the
expense. While on the subject he
takes occasion to pour volley into
the navy and other departments for
the extravagant estimates which
they had sent in for the ensuing
year. Here again his stricures were
judicious and pointed. Like the
member from Massachusetts, we are
opposed to all nonsense in this
matter. The Republic an party and
the administration stand pledged to
the country for the most thorough
curtailment Of every unnecessary
outlay, and this pledge is not to be
fulfilled by empty promises and con-
gratulatory reports. The army, the
navy, the department Of public
building, should all be brought to
the lowest limit of expenditure
commensurate with the actual needs
of the public service. And it is to
Republicans that the country looks
to find these economies enforced
The four million dollar Postoffice in
New York would doubtless be a fine
thing for that city, but the farmers,
the manufactures, and the men of
scanty salaries who have carried the
burthen of taxation, need rest worse
than thePostoffice department needs
granite palace on Broadway, or the
navy bureau new yards at New Lon
don and League Islands.
Thus far the country has ample
cause to be gratified with the econo-
mics of the administration. The
rings have been destroyed, the rev.
enue is justly. collected, the thieves
are being cornered and panishcd,
and the expenses of the army and
navy have been fearlessly reduced.
That this policy shall continue to
prevail, is what the people expect
and will have.

short of an absolute reduction of
the tariff on that staple from nine
dollars per ton to q third of that
amount. 1t is claimed by these
philanthropic reformers that the
iron manufacturers of our country,
bolstered up by an Infamous tariff,
are makingenormous fortunes from
the sweat and blood Of the farmers,
the railroads, and all else who are
obliged to use iron. In urging this
point, the free traders neglect to
consider that there is no NOR oppoly
in the manufacturing of iron, and if
the profit of forgcs and blast furna-
ces, are so overwhelming, the next
six months will see sufficient capital
invested in iron works to force
down prices by merely overlooking
the market. .-r...
In a community so keenly alive
to the sources or profit as ours, the
law of supply and demand acts with
directness and force that always
brings capital to where it will yield
the largest returns, and this alone
should satisfy the malcontents that
their tinkerings at the tariff laws are
not only mistaken in policy, but
needless. Let us suppose, for a
moment, that the prayers of the free
traders were granted, aud the duties
on pig and railway iron reduced to
the point they demand AS an ine-
vitable consequence, the production
of those articles in America must
cease. For few weeks there would
be an apparent advantage to our
people. The cost of pig and rail
way iron would be reduced in pro-
portion to the diminished tariff, but
the moment the English market felt
the pressure of increased orders, the
rates would mount to at least the
present scale of prices. That this
would be the inevitable result has
| been demonstrated over and over
again IN the cases of other articles
of English manufacture. How, then,
would the dream of the anti protec-
tionists be realized? Mines closed,
furnaces and rolling mills idle and
silent-skilled workmeD penniless,
scattered Or employed in other pur-
suits, gold and bonds pouring
toward England by every steamer
to pay for iron that ahould be made
and purchased at home, the home
market for farm products destroyed
the capital invested in mines and
iron mills sunk and lost, and with
all these disasters, iron just as cost
| ly as before. The reduced price ot
imported iron would last just long
enough to break down and destroy
kouroown manufacturers, but no one
who knows the spirit of English
commerce will doubt that her iron
mongers would cxtort the last posi-
BILE cent from the American consu
mer the moment the suicidal falla
cies of our free traders had placed
the iron market in their power. The
fervor with which the warfare
against the iron tariff is being wageG
either shows it to be the stronges
point in the free trade argument, OF
else indicates that there is British
influence, not to speak of colder
Subsidies, behind all this frantic pa
rade. That England has contribu
ted largely to aid the free trade
movement in this country is no
even denied, and this fact alon'
should warn people against the sin
cerity Of its advocates.

OHIO RAIIEIES.

Ever since the last October cleo
ton, owing to the success Cf the
Reformers in Hamilton County, and
the uncertainty of their views, the
people of the State have looked for
ward to the action of the Legisla-
ture on the Fifteenth Amendment
with extraordinary anxiety. The
friends Of the measure hoped for its
success, but still entertained serious
fears and the opponents of the same
were confident of it's defeat. Indeed,
the loyal men Of the whole country
were awaiting the result with the
most intense interest. The hour
came. the Senate spoke, and its
voice was that of an angelof liberty.
All eyes now turned to the House
The momentous question was taken
up by that body, thoroughly dis
cussed, and vote finally reached,
resulting in fifty-seven for the
Amendment and fifty five against it
majority of two.
To one and all who voted for the
righteous measure we wish to say
that you will ever look back to that
act as the proudest OF your life and
your children will glory in being
able to say "My Father voted for the
Fifteenth Amendm ent.''

The Northwest, published at Ma,
poleon, Ohio, recently consoled
itself with the following prediction j:
Mr.. Chase will probably make
himself the next President By hold
ing the Fifteenth Amendment null
and void. The Almighty has
spared Chase forsome wise purpose,
we devoutly hope. a
The author of the above is well
come to all the encouragement it
can derive from the following letter
of Mr.. Chase, which just made its
appearance in print last week:
WASHINGTON, Jan. =. 1870.
Hon. THOMAS III. YEATMAN--My
Dear Sir The eyes of the whole
country are upon the State of Ohio.
On your vote depends the passage
of the fifteenth amendmedt. 1 am
for universal suffrage and universal
amnesty. The amendment must be
put through the Legislature OF
Ohio at all hazards. l.-~t.5.

Fifteenth Amendment, even before
it was ratified by Ohio, says:

Democratic editors are lust now

Democratic editors are just now
terribly angry at the Reformers
from Hamilton County who dared to
vote for the ratification of the
observation-disclosures. Maladictions,
thick and innumerable, are being
hurled at their heads These gen.
tlemen were elected as Republicans,
but with the avowed object of wiping
out the intolerant abuses which have
grown up in Hamilton County.
This work, we doubt not, they will
faithfully perform at the proper
time. Meanwhile we have no idea
that anything can be done to con-
sole the distracted souls of the ne
gro haters, because every legislative
act, having for its object the eleva-
ton Of the unfortunate negroes from
the time that they were in ahject
slavery, has been most bitterly op-
posed by them and its reported sue
cess has made them feel as if they
were in purgatory while yet living
Those who oppose progress, at
this age are kicking against the
pricks.
There is another thing which is
most exceedingly mortifying to the
negro haters. 1t is the fact that the
honest, sober, thinking masses of
the Democratic party hail with sat
isfaction the success of the Fifth
teenth Amendment, which virtually
takes the negro question from the
political field, thus affording proper
opportunities for discussing the vi
tai questions of tariff, taxation, ma
tional debt, &c.

In our issue of October 10th,
1867, beneath an inverted cannon,
after announcing the memorable
disaster which befe'l the Rel ublican
party of Ohio, especially in the de
feat of the Constitutional Amend
ment, we wrote the following, which
we now reproduce with more taan
ordinary pleasure:
We regard the will of the people
as sacred, and to it we bow, with q
heart full of sorrow and humiliation.
Equal and exact justice to all loyal
men, without regard to color or
nationality, is still our principle,
and our conviction in its justice will
only be changed when we shall
cease to thinR and breathe Sooner
or later thepeople will sanction and
vindicate that principle.

The recent reputation speech of
Col. Mungen has served to bring out
in full land in unmistakable language,
the sentiments of the Democracy of
this District and also other parts of
the country, on that important ques
ton. Some journals endorse Mr..
Mungen and favor unconditional re-
pudiation; but others, and we are
very happy to notice it, boldly re-
nounce reputation in any form.
And it would be well to remember
that reputation and secession are
twin brothers. The Holmes County
Farmer, Van Vert Times, Auglaize
Democrat, Lima Democrat and 9th
ers that we might mention, all de-
nounce any scheme of reputation.
We believe and always have that
the masses of the Democracy are
honest and we predict that at no
distant day, the few leaders of the
party and those in the ranks of the
same, who advocate reputation,
will find themselves hopelessly re-
pudiated.
The Auglaize Democrat, Of last
week, in an elaborate editorial, after
citing historical instances of repudi-
alton and the evil which resulted,
and the ability Of this government
to pay every cent of its debt, says,
emphatically:
"The people-the masses, bone
and muscle of America, wrapt with
great honest hearts under the con-
troll of intelligent minds and deter
mined wills, will ever be startled at
the wicked word Repudiat;om, as a
spectre from the grave, giving warn.
