Legislators understand, no doubt,
that the State House was built by
the taxpayers of Ohio for State Ex-
ecutive and Legislative purposes.
The people do not propose to pay

Senate chamber to anybody who
chances along, and who believes he
or she can instruct the world, should
cease. Even was a resolution offer
ON Thursday rendering the House
chamber to Train, but we hope the
Legislators were so struck with the
utter impropriety of such resolu-
ton that they will put their foot on
all attempts to turn the capital at
Columbus into a town house.

CANDIDATES.

The Pittsburg Gazette says:
whatever may be said or thought OF
the quality of the candidates spo-
ken of, for the nomination to the
Presidency, the quantity will GER
tainly not be complained of on the
score of insufliciency, at least. In
the year 1872 there is a probability
that every shade of political opinion
will be fairly represented by an as
pirant for the honors of the White
House. Already we have David
Davis, of Illinois, nominated by the
socalied labor-reform party, and
and James Black, of Lancaster, Penn
syIyania, by the Prohibitionists.
Lucy Stone, or George Francis, will
doubtless represent the 'Sutfragists,''
whilst Brigham Young will again
nominate himself, aud stand on the
platform of universal polygamy.
Horace Greeley will stand solitary
and alone for the 'one term princi-
pie with protection added; whilst
Trumbull will represent those who
worship that principle without'pro-
lection Judge Thurman, of Ohio.
may be so unfortunate as to receive
the nomination from the representa-
tives of the party of dead men and
dead ideas; but General Grant will
sweep them all out of sight next
November, as he did the hosts OF
Febellion, representing as he does
abe practical. honest, progressive
party of a true reform in politics,
and genuine economy ih the admit
ration Of national affairs.

ENDORSING GRANT.

Indiana, Missouri, South Carolina
District of Columbia, follow Kan
sas, Pennsylvania and other States
in endorsing General Grants admin
istratlon, and recommending him
for re e-nomination. Grant and Col
fax will sweep the country next fall.
Schurz and Sumner, with Trumbull,
Logan, and Fenton, have done their
worst to injure the party, and the
result is increased strength and
greater unity. Even Greeley, fore
seeing the game to entrap him in a
free trade scheme, deserted them.
Keep the ball rolling.

A MISTAKE.

Judge Davis has been captured
by the labor conventionsits, by a
nomination to the Presidency. His
coafrere on the ticket is Governor
Parker, Of New Jersey. Both are
lawyers, and stand in rather anus
ing contrast to the ''hards listed sons
of toll" 1t is such things that
turn otherwise commandable move
ments into ridicule. Had the labor
convention nominated q clear brain
ed, Intelligent man in their own
ranks-and there are plenty of them,
their movement would have COM
manded some attention. But their
failure to do so, at once stigmatizes
the movement as a political dodge.
gotten up in the name of the work
ingmen. President Grant is much
nearer the laboring classes than
Davis or Parker.

THE NOMINEES.

Two regularly nominated sets of
candidates for the White House and
the President of the Senate's seat
are already in the field, to say moth
ing of such appointed candi-
dates as Train, Woodruff, 81. NJ
and the other lunatics and semi
lunatics. The National Labor Re
form candidates for President and
Vice. President are David Davis, OF
Illinois, and Joel Parker, of New
Jersey. The Prohibition candidates
are James Black, of Pennsylvania,
and John Russell, of Michigan. 1t
1t promises to be prolific year for
Presidential candidates.

SENATOR TRuMBULL.

Senator Trumbull remained in the
background as long as he could,
and then came out on Friday, under
cover of French arms resolution,
with a fusilade against Senator Nor
ton and the President. Senator
Morton responded in so affective a
manner that the Honorable Indian
an subsidized. He was placed in
rather a ridiculous attitude by Mr..
Morton's allusions to his willing
ness TO accept the candidacy for the
Presidency if rendered him by the
''liberal" party. The debate was
very damaging to Mr.. Trumbull.
