was the original prnmoter), was
elected Vice-P:esident, and took

he will take in his district this

The Republican platform, we
r constrained to say, is IA bun
die of emptiness in nine parts
The journal which claims to be
the organ OF the Republican par
ty in the West advised the Con
ven'ion, far in advance of its as
sem,bliny, to denounce, in the
strongest terms, the Congress;on-
al salary steal. We have the re
suit Of this advice. The salary
grab is termed "unwise." Sure
ly they did not say too much
concerning this matter. 1t was
safe, also, t. reaffirm confidence
in U. S. Grant, for the Intelligent
men of the Republican party,
have never had any confidence
in him. The Trainer OF those
resolutions is an adroit man.
There was one question npon
which the Convention could have
given a pronounced declaration.
We allude to the question of tax
alton, including tariff. The or
gan of the truly good man has
advised the Republican party to
take the wind out of the sails of
the party of reform by advoca-
ting free trade. But its Conven-
t on makes no declaration tonch-
ing this vital question. 1t did
not dare. That party will not
dare do this till honester men
take the initiative. f
Some appreciation Of the pop
ular demand is shown in the
sixth resolution, which calls for
cheapest modes of transportation
but the protest is sugar-coated IT,
the last possible degree. The
resolution which relates to the
Credit Mobilier transaction is,
perhaps, the best OF the nine. 1t
condemns such business. As the
final trial has been had in that
matter and the verdict rendered,
and the only member Of the parry
who fell under the condemnation
of the party has gone TO his lorg
home, the Republicans of Ohio
could we'll afford to say those
pretty words. The narrowest
prudence would not have dicta
ted words less pretty. There is
no evidence in the platform of
righteous indignation against
corruption. There is no declara,
ton in the platform which ap
proaches positiveness concerning
Recommending questions of the
future. 1t is tinlid where it might
have been brave. 1t is Janus
faced where it should have look
ed toward the light. 1t is insip-
id where it might have been
bright. But twill serve. Gin

There is much sensation about

the great National thief and hog,
nominated the following ticket,
which we believe the people OF
Ohio, will repud ate on tie sec
ond Tuesday OF October. \ par
ty that will endorse Il man that
.teals $25 900 Al year from the
taxpayers of the country, aud
then signs a bill that giv9s each
Congressman the liberty to fIch
S. 600, shonid be sunk deeper
than plummet sound by the
votes Of the people:
Gov. Moves was renominated
by exclamation; Lieutenant-Gov-
ernor, Alphnsizn Hart OF Portage;
Acknowledgement, John Little, OF

Wilson, of Por agr; Supreme
jules, William White, OF Clarke,
and Walter Slone-of Erie; Board

Of Auglaize.
To shaw the utter recklessness
anG rottenness of this pie-bald
Convention, they nominated two
officers from one county, some
thing that Was never heard Of
before in State politics. OF course
they had no idea that the people
of Ohio would vote for any such
farce.
