Glorrinr In their shame.

The Radicals are constantly boast
ing of what they have accomplished
since they came into power. In their
platform recently adopted in Indiana
they "appeal with pride toits fidelity
to duty to its freedom from taint or
suspicion; !; to its reforms to it's resist
ance to wrong, and to its faithless and
dishonest agants." Commenting upon
this Governor Hendricks says;
Was ever so bold an appeal made
to the credulity of mankind9 Did the
authors really suppose they could
impose on any voter bv such an ap-
peal ? Is Williams not still the Attor-
ney General? Is Moses not now the
Governor of South Carolina, with the
indictment for penitentiary crime
upon him? Are the District Judges
not still in office. against whom pro-
ceedings for impeachment were insti-
tuted? Does the Louisiana crime
against republican institutions not re.
main unrebuked? And are the guilty
parties not now in the enjoyment OF
the fruits OF the crime, crime so obi
Gus as to make Republican Senator
denounce it as "cloud upon the fail
name of our nation p" And when
public opinion compelled the Secreta-
ry of the Treasury to resign his office
because of his connection with the
Sanborn frauds, was he not the same
week made a Judge of the Court oi
Claims for life and confirmed by the
Senate2 The platform also declares
the party pride over the investigation
of the abuses in the District OF Co.
lumbia, becaHse it shows that they dc
not want the spoils of Office. When
did they decline the spoils of office
Intolerant and proscriptiVe, they al
low none to share in the honors and
profits of public position unless they
bend the knee in devotion to the party
The vast expenditures must pass into
man can tell what sums pass wrong
fully. 1t has no precedent in our his
tory. In February, 1871, the District
of Columbus was placed under q new
form of government. The Governor
Board of Public Works, and many
other officers, and one branch of the
Legislature, was chosen by the people
in districts. If capable of maintains
ing good government, the opportunity
was most favorable. Under the eye
of the President and his Cabinet, with
party in such majority as to exclude
all others, none could hinder; they
had their way and developed theiI
tendency. But partiality, favoriteism
and corruption soon had sway With
out restraint, and in three years the
debt of the District exceeds $20,000.-
600. The burden became too great
for the party. Corruption and failure
were admitted. Before the world
they conceded that in the national
capital, with officers appointed by the
President and Senate. or elected by
their party, they could not preserve
pure aud free government. That
form of government was lately aban-
doned, and in the spirit of Rome's
government of her conquered prov
inces the District of Columbia was
placed under the rule of three COM
missIoners taken from distant parts OF
of the country. Free and representa-
tive government is this day broken
down by party corruption in the cap
itaI of our country, and arbitrary, al
most despotic authority established.

THE Charleston S. G. correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial writes
as follows of the Republican aseenden-
cy in that State:
'The Legislature is den of thieves,
and ignorant, stupid, bigoted, black
thieves at that. Take the coDvicts in
the Ohio Penitentiary, organize them
into a body, call it the Legislature,
and you have better body of men
than any Legislature South Carolina
has had since 1868. And further, sta
tistics will show that the Ohio con-
victs are better educated than the
South Carolina Lawmakers, and bet
ter qualified to perform the duties of
office. More OF them can read, more
of them can write, more of them know
the difference between Watts hymns
and the Constitution of the United
States. If the most intelligent men
in the Penitentiary had been selected
in 1868 as legislators for South Caroli-
ma and continued in Office until to day,
| have no hesitancy in saying that the
condition of affairs here would now be
BETTER"
The Republicans have had the un-
interrupted and undisputed control of
affairs in that state ever since the end
of the war, and pretty job they have
made of it, Isn't it something they
have occasion refer to with pride and
to boast over?

Is it not disgusting to hear the con-
stant babble of the worshipers of the
immaculate statesman of Hiram hill,
about his being the only man in the
18th District capable of representing
her interests in the national Congress
The assertion is an insult and disgrace
to the Intelligent people of the district
and should cause the flush of shame
to mantle the cheek of its utterer. II
it is true, it is time the District was
reconstructed, or some of the noble
African stock, which Garfield has been
aiding to enfranchise for the govern
ment of the benighted people of the
South, were imported to the District.
What viii the people of the 10Th
District and of the Union do when
this incompatible patriot and states
man shall be no more?

AMONG the most prominent objec-
tions urged against the ratification of
the new Constitution is that If increases
the term of the Judges of the Su-
preme Court to ten years, instead of
five years, at present. This is pro-
nounced anti-Republican, anti-Dem-
ocratic. We fail to see wherein.
Nearly century ago the men who
laid the foundation of our republican
edifce, and who were both theoretical
ly and practically as good Democrats
and Republicans as any of the present
day, provided for National Judiciary
whose tenure of Office was fixed for
life or during good behavior. Their
object then was to place that great
tribunal beyond the influence, as far
as possible, of popular clamor and
party strife. And from that day to
this there has been no desire mani
tested to make United States Judge
ship football to be kicked about at
every annual election. A long term
of service ia our State Supreme Court
will tend to promote the same benefi-
ciaI results, besides inviting the best
legal talent of the State,

ALL foreign corporations having
suits with the citizens of Ohio, under
the present Constitution are permitted
to remove the cases iAto the United
States Courts. All the railroads in
this county are controlled by foreign
companies, and nearly all the insur-
ance companies are foreign corpora
tions, and all citizens of the county
having suits with thEm are liable to
be dragged off to Cleveland with their
witnesses and attorneys, at enormous
expense and great Inconvenience, for
trial. The new Constitution compells
these foreign corporations to submit
to the Jurisdiction of the State Courts.
Vote for it.

Radical Economy.

The ordinary current expenses ol
the government during the fiscal year
ending June Both, ult., aggregated
$2S7, ,I33, ,S7l. So says the Ohio State
journal This is a little less than
$500, 100000. The highest expendi-
ture of any year before the recent
civil war aggregated less than $780,
100000, and for that extravaganza the
then so-called Democratic admin
istration was badly defeated, and the
then so-called Republican party was
elevated into power, and has been re-
tanned therein ever since. After the
heavy interest paid on the enormous
debt and the useless and wasted mil
lions paid the national banks, the un-
equaled extravaganza of the admins
tration in time of profound peace is
unbounded, without parallel and be-
yond excuse.
Still the journals, politicians and
conventions of the Radical party are
loud and constant in their boasting OF
the economy of their party, and point
with pride to their party record dur
ing the past.

The new Constitution will prevent
any salary grabs in Ohio. Vote for it.

A WEEK ago last Sunday Rev. G. B.
Boynton, ex-Chaplain of Congress,
and Pastor of the Vine street Congre-
grtional church, Cincinnati preached
sermon, strongly fayoring the license
system for the liquor trade, aud said
he had seen all its phases, and had ex-
amined all argument in the temper
ance movement. They were mostly
unsound, and temperance people at
last would have to re-argue the SUBJ
ject from new standpoints. He be-
lived the late phases of the movement
misdirected that they aimed at liquor
sellers instead of Incorporate men,
who were the fountains of the trade.
1t was like trying to dip a river dry at
the mouth instead of the fountain.
Reform in this must come from puri-
fiction of individuals and society.
This will call down upon the head
of the Reverend gentleman the bitter
denunciation. of all the great reform
throughout the land.

IT costs only a little more than
twice as much to run mixed Radical
negro government in North Carolina
as it does to support Democratic
conservative one. The expenses OF
the North Carolina State Govern
ment for two years ending Septem-
Der 30, 1870, when the infamous Hol-
den was in power, amounted to 1851, :
1880. The expenses of the State
Government for the three years end
ing September 80, 1873, under Con-
servative management, amounted to
$720, ,572.6l /; and the estimated cost
for the present yeai.is S205, 900, which
brings the total expenditure for the
last four years up to 1926, ,572.6I. Thus
it will be seen that four years ofDem-
ocratic rule will cost less by $55, $50. 10
than only two years of Radical-negro
rule. The. cost of supporting the
asylum and the State penitentiary is
not included in these igures.- World.

A VOTE "Against License" means a
continuance of the present law and
practice on the subject of the liquor
traffic, by which any one who can
raise enough money to purchase jug
of the most miserable '-rot-gut" poi
soned whisky, can start saloon, and
sell in any quantity he pleases to be
drank anywhere away from the prem
ises where sold. If you would place
the business under the wholesome re-
straints of the law, vote HFor the new

SHAMEFUL.-In the case of the State
of Ohio against Charles Missar, on
charge of selling liquor in violation
of law, tried in Cleveland last week,
six sneak witnesses called by the
prosecution testified on cross exam
ination that they were employed by
the temperance league to go around
among the saloons and purchase and
drink intoxicating liquors in order to
enable them to become witnesses
against the sellers. Four of them
swore that they were paid So a day
and expenses, including:board, whisky
money and cost of visiting Montpe-
lier's Varieties, and the other two re-
ceived So day and expenses. This
was paid them by the officers of the
Temperance league, who had their Of
fee in the quarters of the Young
Mems Christian Society. They had
been in this kind of sneak detective
business under pay forseVeral months.
One of the number swore that he was
member of the Union Temperance
Society of Adrian, Michigan. aud re-
quired by the rules of the Society not
to drink any intoxicating liquors, and
yet he had been hired by this Temper
ance League of Cleveland to go around
with others among the saloons, and
drink whisky, and in this employment
he had drank as many as five times
before supper. The witnesses gener-
ally sWore that they had visited from
one to two hundred of these places
drinking at all of them, their employ
ers paying for the liquor, and that
there are some twelve or more vino
are in the employ of the League in
this business. This is what is called
promoting the cause of temperance.
But comment is unnecessary.

The following article in section I3
of the new Constitution will commend
itself to the voter, especially the farm
ef;
Sec, 5. The General Assembly may
impose taxes by license, excise or 9TH
erwise, and also provide by equitable
rules, for taxing franchises and in
come derived from investments, when
the principal from which such income
is derived cannot be taxed.
Under this section the legislature
will have power to tax the income
from bonds, which by Congressional
law, are exempt from direct taxation.
All ether franchises which now es-
cape will be taxed. The section is a
proper and good one. There is no
reason why bonds should not pay tax
just as well as a farm.-RIcHwooD

The Radicals of the sixth District
held their Congressional Convention
at Toledo.on Thursday last. Gen. I.
r. Sherwood was laid upon the shelf
and Hon. Albert M. Pratt nominated
for Congress. Mr.. Pratt formerly re-
sided in Ravenna, having studied his
procession here. Everything is not
altogether lovely in the Radical rank
of the sixth District, and friend Pratt
may find that nomination is moi
quite equivalent to an election.

One of the most potent reasons
urged by the worshipers of Garfield
for his denomination and reelection
to Congress is. that he has been in
there nearly twelve years and yet is
poor. In the light of his Credit Mobi-
Iier, Salary grabbing and DeGolyer
paving, contract operations, this "poor
but honest dodge has but little merit.
If, notwithstanding these and his fees
for drawing "briefs" aud his immense
legal practice, he remains as impecu-
nious as is alleged, he is hardly a fit
person to occupy a position at the head
of the Committee of Finance or ap-
preparations.

Democratic victories.

Elections took place in Noath Car
olina and Tennessee on Thursday last,
resulting, in both states, in complete
Democratic trinmphs. In the former
State the entireD Democratic State ticket
is elected by from eight to ten thou
sand majority, and seven of the eight
members Of Congress are Democrats.
In Tennessee there was no State
ticket in the field but most of the
counties have gone Democratic.

UNDER the present Constitution the
City of Cincinnati is building the
Southern Railroad at an expense of a
million dollars. Under that same
Constitution, Ravenna might build a
railroad to Garrettsville or any other
point, and impose upon her people an
oppressive and ruinous load of debt
and taxes to pay the expenses. The
new Constitution prevents all such
operations. 1t should be adopted.

THOSE in favor of allowing any
body and everybody who chooses to
do so, to sell whisky, only so they
don't sell to be drunk on the premises
where sold, call themselves temper

who, by a judicious license system,
would place the traffic under the re-
straint and regulation of law as whis-
kyites. Isn't that nonsense.

THE Conservatives carried the city
OF Vicksburgh at the election last week
by $40 majority, each party polling a

sibly to preserve the peace, but really
to secure Radical triumph.

lay. But how is that to be done under
a system where the Supreme Court is
four years behind with its business
and matters growing worse all the

for the new Constitution.
