MR.. E. BOOTH UPON The OHIO PLATFORM
After the vehement opposition of Mr.. E
Booth to al! kinds Of compromise; sine,
his scathing denunciation Of any third o.
independent party. and his Spartan de
mand OF nationa! Democratic party. We
naturally looked with anxiety FOX the re-
ception which the platform recently
adopted by the great Democratic party OF
Ohio would meet a: his hands. Hon. Mr..
! Crane has recently avowed his opinions,
but he vii! pardon US for saying they
were too Indefinite. and rather applicable
to the remoter questions Of earlier and
medieval history than to the eminen.
issues Of the day. Mr.. E. Booth had
boldly demanded national Democracy.
like unmixed whisky. straight as from the
standard distillery Of the fathers. Alas,
It has come crooked. as from the swill
tubs Of Cincinnati. Mr.. E. Booth had.
with the impe'uous impolicy of his race
pronounced for Mr.. William Allen in ad-
vance. He had cast up his canteen, flour
ished his metaphoricai shillaleh. and dared
any one to sainsay the meri: of this
statesman. Changing the figure. some-
what. he mourned SO deeply the woes of
the Democracy that he stihed his voice.
like prophet Of old. and said. GU. of
Ohio would come 8 political deliyerer.
he would be of the olden. the hard.
handed. the solid opponents Of paper
money and protective tariff. He went into
the political pedigrees Of the past, and
foresaw that the Messiah Of hard money
and low taxes would be of the house of the
Democratic fathers. He even went SO far
as TO pronounce his name, and to say,
"Rise up. William Allen" and accept the
crown Of thorns with which we will nom.
mate you. 1t was Immediately suggested
to this Jealous forerunner that William
Allen could not be he that had been pre-.
dicted. because that he was willing to
have held the clothes Of those who stoned
the ''insurrectionery" Democracy of LOU
isiana. There has been. moreover. bound
upon the shoulders of Mr.. William Allen
the bloated burden of an inflated rag and
lampblack currency-two things that
would have set Mr.. Bullion Benton. the
apostle of Mr.. William Allen. crazy. We
had supposed that Mr.. E. Booth would
have been. at least. as scrupulous as the
New York World: would have wept over
his broken idol. and installed some other
Democratic divinity in his stead. MIR. E.
Booth. however. clinss 70 his first choice.
He seems to adopt the romantic senti-
ment:
e know not. care nos. Il quits IN thv heart,
but knc that love thee, whatever thou art"
Such Seems the uncomprom;sing, and,
we must say. the rather unscrapulous
political affection manifested by Mr.. E.
Booth for William Allen. On the nine.
teenth instant. some days after the date
Of the Ohio convention. and with ample
time to have considered the fragrant con.
tempt for nationality manifested by Kaiser
Allen. Mr.. E. Booth writes. There is a |
certain mixture Of party craft with the
candor of Mr.. Z. Booth. He says that if |
be did express preference for Mr.. Will |
liam Allen. ST., it was '.because circum-
stances point to him with accommodating
'orce and directness as the coming man"
He was. moreover, 1.-The exact antipodes !
If the would-be third termer." Now,
William Allen, ST.. is about to be Sec
md termer himself, with reversionary
interest in the presidency. while there is
10 evidence that President Grant desires
third term at all. We should suppose
hat as William. Allen. ST.. has placed
himself on the ambitious ground SO OBJ
in General Grant. Mr.. Z.
5ooth would have seen his choice not
'nly unnecessary. but inconsistent with
lis own hostility to officers who would
,ro!ong their own service. Wandering
or an instant to pay tribute to the New
FORK Democracy. who accepted the four
zenith and fifteenth amendments and
avs passed hereunder. Mr.. Z. Booth
wings around and again-:n his own
words. steps promptly TO the 'front.' and
ays, Stand up, William Allen" !
He deliberately goes into the canvass.
nd assuming the objections to the cand:-
late. proceeds to argue them:
l. He is too old. But then he has ex.
erience. :. That the protective interests

What is meant by his ''proclivities for
