STATE sExATOR.

The convention which met at Newark
on Tuesday. has given US a candidate
for State Senator whose name hon
ors our ticket. andwhose election to the
Senate Of Ohio would be an instance Of
signal partiality for honesty, capacity
and purity Of character in public Office.
Our nominee, Prof WHLIAM G..
WILLaAIs, IS of Welsh arentage,
though born at the city Of Cincinnati,
Ohio, His father was BY profession a
civil engineer and resided in Washing
ton when the city was captured by the
British during the war of 1872. Prof.
Williams was educated at the Cincinnati
College and came to this place in the
year. 1876, since which time he has. been
a continuous resident of Delaware. His
connection with the Ohio Wesleyan
University as Professor Of Languages is
well known. and he is justly considered
one Of the most finished scholars in that
department. in the Union.
notwithstanding his devotion to the
classics, Prof. Williams has habitually
given close attention TO public affairs
and few men are. 50 thoroughly inform
ed in reference to public questions. Dur
ing the war his sympathies were strong
ly enlisted in behalf of the Union cause,
insomuch that his patriotic -ardor final
ly overcame his literary tastes and CON
nections. and caused him to enlist as a
member of the I45th Ohio National
Guard, of which regiment he was elect
ed chaplain
Such. in brief, is the character and
history of our candidate, and it is need
less to add that he would be an orna-
ment to the District. an honor to his
constituency and rare acquisition to
the public service. We shah earnestly
hope and zealously labor for his cleo
tian.

The Republican Convention for the
Judicial Subdivision embracing Della
ware, Knox and Licking counties, has
nominated Capt. CHAs. H. KIBLER, Of
Newark. for the Office Of Common Pleas
Judge in the Subdivision.
Capt. ESibler is a gentleman Of first
class moral character and a lawyer Of
extensive practice and high standing in
his profession. He resides in Newark.
and until quite recently has been a part
ner Of Hon. Jerome Buckingham, one
Of the present Judges Of the District.
At the outbreak Of the late war Capt.
KILLER recruited company for the
Union army and led tito the field, where
he afterwards became Assistant Adjutant
General on the Staff Of Major General
Charles r. Woods, one of the most sue
cessful and brilliant Of Ohio Command
ers. He served nearly three years in
the field, and during that time achieved
an enYiable record tor meritorious ser
vices.
We have every reason to believe that
Capt Kibler would acqilit himself with
great credit on the bench and show that
he is a worthy successor to the able gem
tlenan in successorship to whom he has
been put in nomination.

country on the success of the present
administration which has, without in-
crease Of taxation, reduced the National
debt over 81 6, ,ooo. 900 by an honest and
economic collection of the revenue and
a large reduction of the expenses of the
Government, and We especially cOngrat-
ulate the country on the fact that this
policy has made It possible to reduce
the internal revenue and tariff duties
$50 100000. thus relieving the peo-
pie Of their burdens to that extent with
out imperiling the National faith and
honor
). ResOk1ed. That a tariff for revenue
IS indispensable, aad should be so ad-
Justed as to be the least prejudical to
the industrial and producing interests of
every class or section, while securing to
the home producer a fair competition
against the foreign producers.
4. ReSOEzea, That a change of our
navigation laws 50 as to admit of the
registration of vessels, purchased abroad,
is demanded by the best interests of the
country, and that such action would
largely contribute towards the restora-
ton Of our plundered commerce and
the supremacy of the seas
5. Resol0ed, That the policy of grant
ing subsidies of public lands to corpora
tons and nonoPelies IS unqaalifedly
condemned.
6. ReS0E0ea. That adhering TO our Ta-
ditional policy Of neutrality, the Ameri-
can people look with profound indiffer-
ence upon any European controversy
regarding dynastic interests merely, and
are concerned in the present struggle be-
srrraar, (-ar-f0ar,.r and Erroy.~s c-.I.r rr, So
as the same involves the great princi-
Piles Of liberty; and while we remember
that the great uprising of IS47 failed of
success, mainly for want Of Germanic
union. that during cur recent national
trial the people of Germany supported
our cause with their sympathy and ma
terial aid, while the armies OF France
were endeav0ring TO slibVert a Republic
On this continent, and establish in its
stead an imperial throne, we cannot re-
frain from declaring our sympathy with
the present heroic effort of the Germans
to establish, maintain and defend their
| national unity.

We have room this week only for
condensed summary Of the proceedings
of the State Convention held on Mon
day last. The attendance, both of visi-
tors and delegates was large, and the
spirit Of the convention harmonious and
enthusiastic The Opera House, in
which the convention met. was suitably
decorated with the national coIors and
was densely crowded from parquette to
gallery. Hon. BEN. F. Potts was chos-
en- temporary President and w. T. Bas-
com, Of Knox, temporary Secretary. The
various committees were then appointed,
II. w. Water6eld, of the Delaware del
egation, serving in that on credentials.
AT the afternoon session the conven-
ton was permanently organized by
choosing Hon. Samuel Galloway as per
manent chairman and A. T. Brinsmade,
Cuyahoga, Secretary. Mr.. Galloway
met with an enthusiastic reception ard
addressed the convention on the issues
Of the day.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Gallowayis re-
Hon. I. r. Sherwood was renominated
by aeclamatiOn for the office of Secretary
Of State. Gen. Sherwood being loudly
called for, briefly addressed the conven-
ton returning thanks for its hattering
endorsement. The next nomination in
order being that for Supreme Court,
Hon. George w. McIlvane. of Tusca-
rawas, was nominated on the fifth ball
lot. For Comptroller, Gen. w. Wilson,
Of RaveRnai was nominated on the first
ballot. For Member on Board of Pub
lie Works, Philip Herring was reuoni-
mated on the first ballot.
The following platform of principles
was then unanimously adopted
L. Reso1sea, That we adhere with un-
diminished confidence and pride to the
party that, by its wisdom and courage
preserved the Union, and BY a change in
the organic law of the Republic estab-
lished liberty and equality. We believe.
that by the continued. ascendancy of the
Republican party, will be secured the
success Of free government; that It's the
safeguard Of the Constitution, the pro-
moter Of education, order, industry,
thrift. universal freedom. and equal
rights.
2 Reso1usa. That we congratulate the

our coUrrY NoMIKEEs.

The convention which met on Mon
day was undoubtedly one of the most
harmonious in sentiment and action
ever held in the county. The business
Of making nominations. always a deli
cate one, was dispatched with the ut
most cordiaIity and good feeling and en-
tire harmony prevailed in all the de-
liberations.
Of the nominees it Is scarcely neces-
sary to speak in detail. as they are all
gentlemen well known in the county.
The candidate for Sheriff. Mr.. Brown.
who received the merited compliment Of
denomination by acclamation, is a
workingman, a stone-cutter by trade,
and popular and in every particular
unexeeptionable citizen. He has dis
charged the duties of Sheriff in highly
satisfactory manner, showing himself to
be conscientious and pains-tal<ing of
fetal, and deserves in no common de-
gree the peoples endorsements as good
and faithful servant.
The same is true Of Gen. Jones, who
has been re-nominated for the Office of
Prosecuting Attorney. Having done
himself and his country honor as sol
der he has equally commended himself
in the responsibilities Of civil office to
/ popular confidence.
Roswell Cook. our candidate for Com
r,,sees[,,s,- 5.- = e,,1,s4sr,ei,1 c,--,,a, ,-,e;
ding in Genoa township. and is exten-
sively known as gentleman Of sound
judgement, reliable business capacity
and admirable qualities as a citizen. Mr..
Cook is qualified in all respects to take
judicious care of the interests of the
county and viii without doubt prove a
worthy successor of his excellent and
popular predecessor in Office. Mr.. VIII
liams.
The domination for Coroner was by
the acclamation of the convention be-
slowed on Mr.. A. A. Welch, one of our
best known business men and a gentle
man whose name would in any capacity
honor the ticket.
Judge Griffin who received the nomi-
nation for Infrnary Director is also an
irreproachable citizen well known to the
people of the county. He would fill
with credit any office in thescounty and
is in all respects one of the most deserv-
ing gentlemen that could have been
nominated.
Capt. Doty received a complimentary
denomination for Auditor. and was en-
dorsed by an unanimous and thunder-
Gus ayet which fairly shook the building.
We verify believe Delaware County has
never had a better Auditor than Capt.
Doty.
Such is the ticket presented to the peo-
pie by an impartial convention and
which, it is entirely safe to say, will be
triumphantly elected in October.

HUBBELL, THE APosTATR.


[From the Springfield 6O.l Advertiser.l
Our neighboring district, the Eighth
Congressional, has placed before the
people one of the candidates for Con
gress, lanes r. Hubben of Delaware,
who agrees to carry the Democratic
standard in the coming conflict. The
convention which nominated him pass
ed a series of resolutions which are a
series of bungling efforts to give the par
ty a platform. In one an issue upon
the tariff question is arrived at With
out daring to openly espouse free trade,
it declares in favor of "a low revenue
tariff, which closely approximates to free
trade, which is blind for the people
to wink at.
The nominee of the convention is
well known, not for his achievements
by pen or sword, but for the incapacity
/ he has shown to WELD either He occu-
/ pied seatin the State Senate last year
when not too drunk to be in it. He
has made a record there that will con-
| front him with ghastly stare during
the campaign. His great exploits were
but two in number one of these was a
cowar6ly assault made upon a cores
pondent of the Cincinnati Times, in
| which the valiant Jeemes received some
| unexpected contusiOns. The next scene
in which he appears the central figure,
was at that critical period in the history
of the last Legislature, when an attempt
was made by the Democratic members
| to prevent vote being taken upon the
ratification of the nomination of the
/ Trustees of the Soldiers Orphans Home.
/ 1t was the last night of the session. A
vote must be taken then or the meas
ure would go over to the next session. -
Upon a call of the members it was found
| that the Democratic members had an
| sented themselves to prevent a quorum.
| The Sergeant-at-Arns was dispatched to
| find the recreant ones. Search was made
| in all the saloons. billiard rooms and 9TH
er haunts frequented by the dignhed law
makers. One only was necessary to
fill the quorum. That one was hard to
| find. At last when hope had gwen
place to despair, the keen-eyed Sergeant
alarms espied a legislatoriaI figure COO
ling softly to a lamp-post, holding it in
his fond embrace, and with unsteady
limbs wound around its base, laboring
to retain perpendicular. Itwas Jeemes,
of Delaware. The messenger of the
Senate laid his official grasp upon him
and bore him to his waiting fellows in
/ the chamber Senator Catch was tele-
graphed for, a majority obtained and
the trustees were ratified. Few of the
soldiers orphans are aware that the sue
cess of their cause was due to Columbus
bad whisky, and the susceptible Jeems of
Delaware.
He was a Republican at one time but
degenerated into a Johnson Democrat,
and from that point, -40eruaS JacflES
ReSceUszS. He is the cheapest stock of
the Democracy in the Eighth District
and will be easily beaten. As he has
sloughed off from the Republican ranks
he will be a stencil to the nostrils of all
honest men.

The Democracy Of the Eighth District
has either ignored or does not appreciate
its ablest leaders. That's person who.
has nothing to recommend him except
that he left the Republicans on being de-
MED a nenonination-if, indeed, that be
reeommendation-and who has been
an incessant seeker for Office from the
hour he joined the Democracy. should
now. after so short a probation, be put
forward as the leader Of the party and
its representative man when there are so
many abler and, in point of party ser
vices, worthier to bear. the standard of
leadership, is something wholly unac-
countable. If there is anything to be
gained by such policy il is not visible to
the naked eye. There is not a promi-
nent Democrat in the District who would
not have stood as good or a better chance
{ Of success than the present candidate.
The Democracy seems to have abandon
ed the traditions of its fathers and be-
come worshiper Of strange gods.
