The salary grab, "the big steal, ETC.,
are familiar terms. Perhaps no act of
Congress has met with such unreserved
and universal condemnation, regardless
of party preference, as that to which the
epithets above mentioned refer. In this,
ii is encouraging to note, the press has
taken prominent and vigorous part, in
consequence of which many of our repre-
sentatives have refunded the "swag" and
retrieved themselves in the estimation of
their constituents. Among those who
are determined to hang on to all they re-
ceived. under color of law and justice,
are some who have heretofore enjoyed
the highest respect and confidence OF the
people. through successive terms. 1t is

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

The Supreme Court of Ohio decided
lst week that the Bnsel railroad law Is
unconstitutional and void. All the judges
concurred in the decision. We never
had any doubt what the decision would
be. Our readers will remember that we
expressed this opinion year ago. We
hope that the Constitutional Convention,
now in session, will remedy this matter.

At q e present session of the Circuit

secure debt, and un'ler which the Msr-
chants Hotel was advertised and sold over
an Injunction Issued 10y Judge Smi h. Mr.
Scranage claimed that the sale wss null,
aud that the deed OF trust was obtained
iraudulently. Capt Gibson was attorney
Tor Mr.. Scranage, and Messrs. Furguson
and Harvey for the defendants. The ar
gument was opened 10y Judge Furguson
who en,iravored to make it appear plain
that everything was done in fair and
square manner; after which, Caps Gibson
took the matter in hand. and showed sat
isfactorily to the court that the sale WAS
without force il law, and that Mr. Scran-
age was still entitled to possession OF the
premises The court so ruled, aud ordered
that Messrs. Spaulding and Hamer convey
back to Mr.. Scranage ii warranty deed oi
the premises.
We congratulate Mr.. Scranage on his

THE EXPRESS ofFICE.

q The business community we're somewhat
startled few days since by the report
that O. @. Chase, who has had charge of
the express office since its establishment
at this place, had been removed, and n
gentlemen from Go,donsville sent on TO
assume CONTROL, and we might also say
that the news was not altogether received
with a good grace For our part, it makes
hut lutte difference 10 us who is express
agent here, but we are decidedly opposed
and so are nine-ienths of our citizens, 10
having a stranger sen, here to fill the place,
when we have among us several worthy
gentlemen who are fully competent to at
tend to It's duties and would willingly ac.
cept the position. We think, were the
Company to consult their interests in the
matter, hey would, il Mr. Chase is no
longer acceptable to them, appoint some
one vino is known here, and who could
command the confidence and respect OF
the business men OF this section. Major
