Established d in 104og
State Convention.

gs& State Convention.
ms qusstion II psrng HgrsstsuDy
The Republican press Of the State
~ to whether the convention to
nominats State officers, should Ibe
early orflate in the season, and upon
this question various opinions are
advanced. Until last year the cus
tom M prevailed largelyof calling
tho convention in june, and from
what W now have learned and the
experience we derived from, adopt
ing d later date to wit: the middle
of August, ws believe theold custom
tho bstter ofths two, and incline to
tie view that the convention should
iassAnhle at = period not later than
the middle Of July, and that the call
should 7bs made within the next
MY days. After the nominations
are mads il il necessary to organize
fully the campaign, snd for this purs
'poss tho central COMMITTEES having it
n charge should have time, to COR
respond with parties in the various
counties Of the State, and get their
views and auggestions Is TO the man
,nsr and amount Of work they desire
In their loo&lity. This is necessary
that the committee be not over.
'whetmned with thousands Of requests
ibr which they. can make no provis-
ion, in the very midst Of the hurry
and hustle, Of . short and active
oAnpaign. Again often nominations
ars made that enc snder feelings In
some parts Of the State, and sore
heads, grumblers and men more am.
bilious than honest in their fealty to
the general interests Of the party to
which they belong, set afloat rumors
=. =. t
intended to damage the reputation
and standing Of candidates. We
regard itasimportant that time should
b given to examine into all such
matters. and still have ample time to
disseminate the result Of such exami-
nation thro'out the length and breadth
Of the State nlly, before the day Of
election. Also, on the other hand,
should nomination possibly be nm
fortunate, lot there be time to con-
suit and apply such remedy as may
be effected. Our experience leads rs
70 the oonolusion that . heightened
and long drawn ont canvass for q
nomination 10 very deleterious to the
morale Of . party; that in fact, nine.
tsnths of the dissatisfaction and
trouble that arises after the nomina-
ton, comes from the fact that in the
contest to obtain it, the parties con-
testing hscome = embittered against
each othsr, and that solely because
there has been too much time given
Tor the hght, and consequently so
much friction aroused by the oontin-
nous rubbing together, AS to produce
much heat and smoke, ifnot actually
fire. Because, the convention be,
say the last Of June, it does not fol-
low that the active public work of
tho campaign should be commenced
at once. Indeed, the harvest must
be gathered before active work can
well commence, but, in the mean.
time, the plan Of it may be fully ar
ranged, and that, too, when tho stan
dard bearers, those most directly in
tsrsstsd, may be consulted and aid in
the. work, We favor then, let us say,
that the Convention be called in the
latter part Of June.

Ohio Liquor Law.

The Statutes OF Ohio upon the sale
Of Intoxicating liquors, embrace q
provision giving to the wife and
children right to recover. damages
for injuries done by the sale to the
husband and father Of Intoxicating
drinks in certain cases. The work.
ings Of this provision Of the law came
under our personal observation manv
years ago in several cases, such as
damages resulting to the person Of
the wife and to household furniture,
which was committed by the hus.
band when 10 his drunken ravings,
We believe that the law also pro.
vides that the action shall not only
lie against the liquor seller, but also
against the premises upon which it is
sold. The Cambridge co., Times,
gives the following account Of a re.
cent suit brought under this law.
"Mrs. Francis Watt, widow of the
late Dr.. J. w. Watt, ct ono time a
prominent physician and surgeon,
and an ex-Rspresentative of Gnern.
sey county, who died about the 18th
Of September, 1869, from the effects
of intoxication, has prSsecuted San.
uel Boyd for selling her husband
liquors.
She set forth in her'petition that
her husband had IN extensive and
lucrative practice, which enabled
him to provide . comfortable support
for his family prior to tho time Of
tho aggrievanoes committed by the
defendant. That since about tho
first Of April, 1866, her husband was
in the habit Of becoming intoxicated,
and 20 continued until the time al
his death. That the defendant con,
t'nued during eli Of this time 10 cell
ana deliver to him intoxicating
liquors in quantities from one pint to
one quart, causing him to become On
habitual drunkard, and incapable d
attending to any kind Of ofbusiness;and
that the plaintiff was therefore com.
peiled to attend upon him, nurse him
and provide for his support, and for
the support Of herself and family ;
and the same caused his estate ia
be squandered and resulted in his
death, and therefore the plaintiff,
the widow Of the deceased, hes been
deprived Of the means OF support for
herself and minor child, add that
she hsA been compelled TO resort to
daily labor for the same, and claimed
that she had been damaged to the
amount Of $4,000, for which she
asked Judgment 1t the hands Of the
jury. $685. n
After argument by On able counsel
on both sides, the case was given to
the jury on the charge Of the court.
The jury, after an absece of about
thirty minutes, returned with the
following verdict: 1--WE the iury iu
this case, flnd for the plaintiff. and
