A Righteous Decision.

Judge Robert E. Paine, of the Guy
ahoga County Court of Common Pleas,
has made an important decision, to the
effect that a debt made for intoxi.
Coating liquors sold, to be sold again at
retail, connot be collected under the
present liquor law of Ohio. The de-
cision is upon a case as follows:
Last summer, Price & Simpson start
ed an eating house and saloon called
the "Oyster Ocean," on Bank street,
and in January various creditors at
tached and closed it up, and under
the title of Wiseman & Hays VS.. Fl. o.
Price and others The various Gains
came up for investigation with refer
ence to a proper distribution of the
assets. Some of the claims were for
work done and materials furnished in
putting the premises in proper order,
some were for liquor sold, and others
for various articles and labors. Among
the creditors was William V. CraW,
who preferred his claim for money due
for furniture cooking apparatus, the
bar, furniture for the bar, and goods,
most of which were liquors. This

At the time of bis death, he was
increasing in popularity every day
Ms the Republican Can iidate for
1872. True, you could't point TO a
single act as expressive Ct Radical
ism d its leaders. but tho same
could be said of Grant iu 1868.
With Thomas under the sod,
Grant has no rival that | know of
for the succession, If the Republican
party Is to retain supremacy. The
Republican leaders don't like him,
yet they have go educated Them
selves up-or down-to a habit OF
fawLing sycophancy and disgusting
adulation which has no parallel ex-
evpt IN that of the French Legis-
lature toward Napoleon in the days
OF his ascendency. l shall not be
surprised To hear it said of Graz I
in the Senate Of America. as it was
said of Napoleon IN the Senate OF
France in 1907, that "the coneep-
ton which his mother received in
her bosom could only have flowed
from Divine inspiration" There
are men ready TO say this to day,
but for the fear of incurring the
dIspleasure of the venerable jesse
R.; and yet in their hearts they
know the administration, so far
from being n success, has been a
dIsgraceful failure.
No disguise is here made Of
Grrnt's desire for o denomination.
He speaks of it himsslf 20 his
friends and repeats the speclous
plea which was so powerful in be-
half of Lincoln in I864-that the
work he was called upon TO do will
not be finished in 1872; and that he
would like TO retain the Presidency
until it IS brought to a successful
completion. Exactly what he
means by this is not easy to deter
mine. If, however, 1t be the resIo-
ration of peace and f~ralernal feel
ing, l agree with him that his mis-
sion is not likely 10 be concluded in
1875. And, If be expects to remain
President until that desirable end
is accomplished with she assistance
Of a Radical Congress, he must

DEMOCRATIC STATE CON
VENTIOE~


At q meeting of the Democratic
State Central Committee of Chic, held
December 10, 1865, it was resolved that
the next Democratic State Convention
of Ohio be held in the City of Column
bus, on Wednesday, June |, 1870.
It was resolved that the basis of rep
resentation in said Convention be as
follows That each county in the State
be entitledsto one delegate, and also
n delegate for every FIVE hundred
votes cast for Hon. George H. Pendle-
ton for Governor, at the election held
on the second Tuesday of October,
1869; and also one delegate for every
fraction of two hundred and fifty votes
or over cast tor that gentleman at that
time; which basis of representation
will give each county in Ohio the fol-
lowing number Of delegates in said

Packing the Supreme Court of
the United States.

During the last winter, the Su-
preme Court Of the United States,
with nire Judges upon the bench,
deciced the legal tender act uncon-
stitutIonal when Its provisions
were applied to the payment of
contracts made previous to the pas
age of the law. By this decision,
all debts made before the issuing
of greenbGcks III payable in gold.
At the time this decision was
given by Chief Justice Chase, as the
opinion of the majority of tho
Court, there were two vacancies
upon the bench. President Grant,
who has the power under the Con-
stitution to 6ll the vacancies. made
TWO appointments of persons 70 the
vacancies, who were known, in ad-
vance, to be adverse to the decision
made upon this question. Grant,
therefore, packed the bench to bu-
initiate the Chief Justice and If pos
sihle, procure another hearing mp,
on the question, and reverse the de-
cislon made. In the other cases
pending in the Court there was
something wrong ard no hearing
could be had upon them, and now
there Is no likelihood of a re- hear.
ing of the question. The question
is therefore indefinitely postponed,
and the decision deliuered IN this
important particular by the Chief
Justice, stands as the law of the
land, and now all debts contracted

TERRIBLE CALAMITY
RICHMOND, VA.

On the 9th ult., a terrible ca
lamity occurred in Richmond, Va.
The room of the Court of Appeals,
which was the room immediately
above and over the room occupied
by the HORse of Delegates, and IN
the old Capitol building, was crow
ded, galleries and all, by an extras
ordinary mass of humanity, who
were attracted there by the expec-
ted enumeration Of the decision of
SAID Court on the MayoraItv con
test. The galleries gave way un-
der the immense weight, and fell
through the floor to the House OF
Delegates. About sixty persons
were killed and two hundred
wounded.

complish their corrupt purposes
The President of the Ualted States
by costly n valuable gifts bestow-
ed upon him by interested parties,
has become the tool used by them,
in packing the Supreme Gourr of
the United States with Judges who
are supposed to be in favor of cer-
tain measures.
To attain the end in view by these
men who hope for u reversal Of
this decision, it is now gwen out
that the number Of Judges will be
SO increased by appointments at
the hands Of Grant, that a willing
majority will be seated upon the
bench, 90 that by such means a re-
versal of the former decision may
be attained. The question natu-
rally comes up in the mind 0! every
honest and patriotic citizen: has
the corruption of the present times
ever before been equaled?" If all
other branches and departments of
the government stall become cor
rupt, &c the sinking point in the
nostrils of the people, for Gods
fake, let the Judgee of our Courts
be pure and above suspicion. For
safety against the wholesale cor
ruptlons Of toe hour, and for the
security of the rights of the people
and of the States under the Constr
tuition, we must look to an inds-
pendent Judiciary. 1. is the house
of refuge, and that now being
~ruthlcssly assaulted, the people
should become alarmed for their
own safety, and that of our gov>

Others entitled ia respect, / conclude
the law settled in this state, that where
a party performs labor or furLishs ma
terials showing they are to be used in
the prosecution of q business made
criminal by our statute, and they are
thus used, he can not recover damages
in our courts.
The result is that the defendant,
Craw, cannot be allowed his claims for
such articles of bar and other furni
ture as he furnished to the establish
ment to be used in the business of sell
ling or dealing out spirituous liquor to
be drank on the premises where sold;
nor can he be allowed his claim for
such liquor by him furnished and used
for such a purpose, for from the evil
dence ] conclude there is no doubt but
that he had full knowledge of the u e
to which they were to be put; that he
furnished them with the express pur
pose of being so used and that he
knew from actual observation from day
to day that they were being used and
converted into this unlawful and Grim
inal business"

that the liquor traffac like counter

should in all cases be dealt with exact
ly on the same grounds as counterfeit
ing. We desiIe to express our warm
est thanks to Judge Paine for his able
and wise decision, and we earnestly
hope it may be fully sustained.
1t is said the case will be carried up.
That is well, and we confidently hope
the decision may be Endorsed in a
