to party, his eminent services in the

and worst of all celebrated his d, :

Benner's goose was cooked for
him by Baker. and Reynolds was
done brown on the same spit.
Herbster only, had no opposition,

BACK SALARY.

And there is no difference-of opin-
ion as to the character of that legis-
lation, by which Congressman not
only increased their future compen
sation one half, but also provided
for back pay at the same rate. Both
Democratic and Republican plat
forms condemn this action in un-
mistakable terms. There is but one
sentiment regarding it among the
people. A repeal of the law is de-
manded. Now, my friends, it is
sometimes fair to hold that party
responsible for legislation which has
a majority in the Legislative body.
Sometimes it is unfair, as 1 will en-
deavor to show. Suppose there
were two hundred members of Con
gress, -uI Republicans and SO Dem
ocrats to secure the passage of q
bill. would the Republican party
then be responsible2 Yet they had
in the case supposed a majority of
the members. Let us now consider
for moment the vote by which the
back salary measure became a law.

Analysis af the Back Salary vote
Who are Responsible.
Governor Noyes, in his speech at
Athens, O., on Saturday last, took
up the back salary subject and hand
led it in mastery manner, showing
conclusively, not only by the vote
itself, but by Democratic testimony
that the bill was passed by Demo
cratic votes. But we cannot do bet
ter than lay that part of his speech
before our readers:
MATTERS ABOUT WHICH ALL PARTIES
AGREE.
There are certain matters about
which all parties seem to agree. It
is agreed that there ought to be
rigid economy in tie administration
OF affairs; that taxes ought TO be re-
duced as much as the current ex
penses of the government, the inter
est account and reasoble reduction
of the bublic debt will permit; that
there should be honesty and efficien-
cy In every department; that our
public lands should be reserved fol
actual settlers.

. PARK.

Yesterday afternoon, amatch game of base
ball took place atthe Schuetken Park, between.
tha Quickstep and active Clubs, OF this city,
which resulted in victory of the former by
score Of 80 to a. Both these clubs laying
claims to the championship of the State, con-
siderable interest was manifested in the result,
and the game was witnessed by quite num-
Der of spectators. Those however, who ex-
pected to see an interesting contest were dis
appointed, as the game, throughout, was char
acteriEed by careless fielding, wild throwing,
and loose, playing generally. Scarcely run
large score earned by. the Qnlckstep was due
more to the carelessness OF 1nehiciency Oftheir
opponents, than to excellent batting. During
the first five innings, The Quickstep helded
sharply, and aided by weak batting by the
Actiges, succeeded in retiring the latter, for
1--WE snccessiVe blanks. After the fifth innings
the game was mere childs sport as far as iine
playing was concerned. Tho score, BY in
nings, was as follows

II Is matter of regret, that, while there are
base ball clubs in this city, there are no really
good ones, who can can, by first class play ng
credibly represent Ourcsty when playing WIN
outside elubs. Since the palmy days Of the old
Diamond State Club" no similar orRaniza-
| ton has been so successful and efficient. We
| have now no clubs which can make any pre-
tentiOns to first-ciass playing and large scores.
together with numberless errors, characterize
ali their games. Even the Quickstep, so sign
ally victorious Ia the above game, and who
claim to be tie champions of the State, recent
| Iy came within an ace, Cor rather duece, of
sustaining defeat at the hands of disbanded
country club, which had not played as much
as practice game for the last two or three
| years.
The present seasoIis nearly over, bat nexi
season, If there he any clubs at ali organized
| in this city, we hope at least one will he en-
tirely composed of players of ability, who VII
be able to compete creditably and successfully
with the frst-class clubs of other places.
