B. j. Loomis, Columbus correspondent
of the Cincinnati Commercial, thus speaks
of our neighbor and fellow townsman:
For Secretary of State there is a range
of choice all the way from Eshelman, of
Wayne. down to Sim Gordon, of unhappy
Hamilton. ~
A candidate of the highest standing in
his party-somewhat over six feet-who
will bring into the Convention a strong
support from the Scioto Valley, is Hon.
w. T. Washam, of jackson county. Mr.
Washam was member of the State
Board of Equalization of 1901, a po-
sition which he filed with ability, and
has on other occasions received the in
dorsement of his party by nominations
for various local offices of trust. Socially
and in the discharge of public duties he
is gentleman with whom it is a pleas
ure to be acquainted.

1t is amusing, as well as annoying, to
see the mistakes made by.writers for city
papers. These peripatetic correspond
ents generally call at the best hotel, go
out and guzzle quantity of poor beer,
then interview the bar-room loafers, and
having ascertained their facts, write to
the city papers they represent, an
account of what they have thus learned.
Some time ago one of these cores.
pondents wrote to the New York Times
an account of the first pig-iron made in
Ohio In the course of his letter he
says;
In, 1855 the first attempt to use btu
minous coal as a substitute for charcoal
or coal was made by Ex-Governor David
Tod, in jackson county, which was a
failure
The first attempt was made in 1857,
instead of 1855. In 1S56-late in the
fall, Powell, Oakes g. Co. organized, and
Young America Furnace was commenced,
three miles up the railroad from jack
son. The furnace went into blast in
1857, and fully demonstrated that fair
quality of pig-iron could be made with
the Jackson hill coal. But the stack
fell down, and the panic coming on,
which ruined all the business men of
jackson county, the company were not
able to rebuild. 1t was nearly seven
years after that before Ex-Governor Tod
bought Diamond Furnace, attempted to
run it with stone coal, and failed That
furnace had not been constructed to use
stone coal, and this caused the failure.

STATE REPUBLICAN CENTRAL 4 ExECUTIyE0
COMMITTEE Rooms,
COLUMBUS, o., July %, A. D. 1874.
TO THE REPUBLICAN, VOTERS OF OHIO:
Your Annual State Convention will be
held at Columbus, on WEDNESDAY,
THE ID DAY OF SEPTEMBER, 1874,
for the nomination of candidates for the
following offices, viz:
Secretary of State,
Judge of the Supreme Court,
Commissioner of Common Schools,
Clerk of the Supreme Court
Member of the Board of Public Works,
and the transaction of such other busi-
ness as may be necessary.
The undersigned committee recon-
mend that the meetings in the several
counties for the selection of Delegates be
held not later than SATURDAY,
AUGUST 22d, 1874.
The basis of representation in the Con-
vention will be one Delegate for every
four hundred votes cast for General E. F.
Noyes for Governor in 1873, and one ad-
ditional Delegate for any fraction of two
hundred votes and upward in each
county.
(Here follows a list of the counties,
with the vote for Gov. Noyes, and the
number of delegates to which each is en-
titled. jackson county gave Noyes l ,905
votes, and is entitled to delegates.)
The committee respectfully suggest the
Importance of 9 fall delegation from each
county in the Convention.
The Importance of thorough local organ
ization cannot be too strongly urged nor
can this. great auxiliary to final success
be too early attended to- In this con-
nection, the committee would earnestly
recommend that, where county commit
tees have not already been selected, that
at the County Conven ton to select Dele
gates to the State Convention, the County
Central and Executive committees be ap-
pointed. The names of the officers and
members of these committees, with the
Postoffice address of each, should be for
warded to the State Executive committee
at once.
Very respectfully,
CHAS. G. WALCUTT,
Chairman State Ex Com

We regard Theodore Tilton as one Of
the most brilliant men in this country,
but wholly unreliable. We discovered
his faithlessness when he argued with
Horace Greeley in 1871 that woman suf-
frage was the great question in this coun-
try, and then in 1872 was one of the fore
most to support Greeley for President.
Here is something very beautiful writ
