The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company,

At this time Of public scrutiny, and
mostly Of condemnation, Of tho gigantic
railroad corporations that arc spanning
the continent, It Is a fact most credllable
10 the Baltimore s. Ohio Railroad Com.
pany that nobody and nothing connected
with It's management have ever come
within the range Of public censure.
While Jay Gould, aud Drew, and Van.
derbilt and Tom Scott, and other railroad
magnates, have been the subject OF
general newspaper cenSure, and the
talk Of the whole country, John W.
Garrett, President Of the Baltimore q
Ohio, has not been In any manner i'm
pugned. The Baltimore s. Ohio is spread.

the entrepot Of the great Northwest, at

their confidence and moral support SO
long as the one shall seem 10 be deserved
and tho other TO be useful Tor the promo.
ton Of worthy public aims. II we
looked upon this contest between
the Governor and Legislature as
involving only the personal or po'
lltical fortunes Of the Governor on
the one hand and those Of some rival on
the other, we should be as Indifferent TO
1t as our Clarksburg CotemporaEy pro-
fesses to be; but there is much more in 1t
than this. The war Is made on the Gov
ernor because he would not join in the
corrupt schemes or conniVe at the shame
less thieVing Of those who wage this war
upon him; and thus he has become the
representative Of integrity and decency in
the government Of the State as Sgainst
their assailants. Though the Republicans
az a party are not responsible for the gov.
eminent of the State, 1t Is their duty as q
minority, and 1t Is their duty and interest
as individuals, to strengthen the hands Of
an official who does not steal himself and
who refuses to fellowship those who do.
So long as the Governor maintains this
attitude, so long he Ia entitled to our com.
mendation. Whether he will sustain
himself in the present confidence Of
Republicans will depend, as we have
suggested, on the dignity and de-
cision with which hesindlcates his attl.
tude towards them and his relations, on
the other hand, to the Democratic faction
warriug on him. Any signs of weaken.
ing or temporizing with the faction he has
been fighting would Of course forfeit the
confidence and esteem Of his Republican
supporters.
The Governors political future Is In
his own hands. No man in public
lie in this State ever had a finer
opportunity to win distinction and
success; and If he docs not win them
it will not be the fault Of circumstances,
which have consplred to give him 80 con.
spicuous and honorable o position in the
popular esteem.

THE Columbus Convention whose pro
ceedings are reported in our columns thii
morning Is only an incident in the pro-
cess Of disintegration going on in the re-
mains OF what was once the Democratic
party. Democrats in Ohio are irrecon'
cileably divided. Some Of them have
learned enough to know that longer ad'
hesion to the ancient organization and
name Is hopeless. Some oil them have not
yet found 1t out That Is the difference
between the factions, which may be de-
scribed as Liberal and Bourbon. Reports
from Columbus indicate that the Bour-
bons will not join in the movement inaug'
urnted yesterday, but will go on and hold
their convention and nominate ticket on
the 9th proximo just as If nothing had
happened. or course neither faction has
any hopc Of success at present. If there
Is any success in the future for either, II
is In store for the Liberal wing, because
they arc falling in with the current OF the
times while the Bourbons are vainlJ
trying to stem 1t.
