In the late campaign Senator THUR
MAN made a gallant fight for the suprem
acy Of purity and honesty against cor
ruption and dishonesty,and won the bat
tie, capturing the artillery and baggage
of the Republicans with all ease.
To-day he is one Of the greatest states
men in the United States; he is honored
as such by thinking men OF all parties
1t was understood at the beginning of
the canvass that the Legislature would
honor him with reelection to the q. S
Senate in case it should be Democratic
1t is Democratic, and there is not Dem

posed 10 his reelection 20 that position
The people Of Ohio have done honor
to themselves in providing for his con
tinuance in the Senate. 1t has too otter
happened that great and pure men have
been thrown aside to give place to cor

pie in this respect, which is credit tt
