D.. w. Rutherford has brought suit
against the Globe Insurance Company to
recover $S44. The case is now in prog
ress In the Superior Court before Judge
Yaple. The defense claim that the plain
tiff made fraudulent statement of his
loss and caused his premises to be set on
fire. Is tsrresr.eeaa that that the piaiatiff as
signed his policy in the Peoples Com
pany after the fire to his counsel as an
attorney fee, and that there Wis ~ settle
ment of the claim against that Company
for $50. 1t further appeared that few
days before the fire the plaintiff procured
and kept In the shop ten gallons OF tur-
pentine, when he had before been i'll the
habit Of keeping but gallon or two on
hand. The plaintiff was arrested for
arson, but subsequently released.
In the case of IL. M. Cist against Bar
bour and Stout, a suit to recover for pro-
fessiOnal services as an attorney, the
jury returned verdict for the plaintiff
for $400.
A case in which the city was against
II. A. Holden and others was brought be-
lore Judge Matson yesterday and sub
mltted. The proceeding was to condemn

In spite Of denial, grave charges have
been made against Secretary Delano.
Two Of them are given as follows: /. A
dispute having arisen as to a tract OF
mineral land in California obtained by
IN old Mexican grant, Delano sent his
son John to investigate, and requested
the parties to confer with him. The re-
salt was that John got 5000 in cash and
. large number of shares of quicksilver
stock in mine found On the land. 2. An.
ether charge is that after despairing OF
procuring patents to large tract Of
land, the matter was referred to John,
who, after divers false representations,
finally offered to put the matter through
II six sections of the land could be pat
ented tO.himself. These are samples of
q pile Of similar charges. 1t is evident
that If Delano is inpocent, John is pre-
cocious scamp.

THE TRIUMPH or FRANCE.

The French have surpassed the world
as fnanciers. What was her condition
in 1871, and what is now her situation
In 1S71-terribly whipped and humili.
ated-two of ner most fertile provinces
lost--whole districts laid waist and other
powers moved by sympathy to collect
provisions, clothing and seeds for the
despolled peasants-civil war at Paris,
her proudest monuments destroyed by
her own citlzens-the sympathy of other
powers withdrawn and no help from
them-an indemnity of $1,000, 100000 to
the Csnqueror-heavy domestic expenses
during the war-only provisional gov
ernment-a demoralized people-an
empty treasury and debt twice as
large as that Of the United States-what
nation was ever SO near to political,
financial and industrial ruin3
France in 1S75-A solid republican
government exhibiting the greatest po-
litical wisdom-financial condition bet
ter in most respects than that of any ma
tion of the world-her desolated regions
restored-her industries more active
than ever before-her exports largely
exceed her imports, and all nations be-
coming her debtors-she has drawn gold
from England, the United States and
even from Germany, and $500, 100000 OF
coin and bullion locked up in the Bank
of France-the paper currency of the
bank is but one mill discount-rlo nation
in Europe has been so prosperous as
France. during the past two years-in no
other country has labor been so well re-
warded-Germany, the conqueror, has
been subject to greater financial dis.
turbances than France, the conquered,
in spite Of the 81, ,0OO, ,000, 900 in gold which
France paid her in two years--her enor-
nous debt is almost entirely in the hands
OF French citizens.
Such is the anomalous and wonderful
change which financial wisdom has
wrought In France during the past four
years.
After all, France is the victor-victor
in a department of activity infnitelymore
honorable to the human mind than any
victory by force of arms. 1t is evident
that French fnanciers and econo-
mists will hereafter be the teachers Of
the world. England must yield her su-
premacy in this field, even with English
speaking peoples.

ATTORNEY GENERAL WILLIAMS has
actually resigned. He held ON tena.
ciously while there was bitter fight 60.
ing on against him, and took advantage
Of the first season Of quietness to get out
Of position for which the country at
large does not consider him the very
hest man. Every change in the Cabinet
Of late has, in the opinion Of the people,
been a change for the better, and Presi-
dent Grant has an opportunity now OF
making an appointment that will as fully
meet the appreciation of the country as
did that Of Mr.. Jewell or Mr.. Bristow.

Read an Eminent Republicans
opinion of the Geghan Bill,

Hon. JOSEPH MEDILL, editor of the
Chicago 7iT6NNe, is we'll known to
many people of Stark county, having
once resided among US. His paper is
among the foremost and most influential
Republican papers Of the couatry. A
few weeks ago it spoke of the so-Gslled
Ohio Geghan Bill as follows
Relative to the Geghan Bill. passed
"by the Legislature in Ohio, and provid-
ing equal privileges for all religious
"sects in public, reformatory, penal and
eleemosynary institutions, there is no
" question as to its intrinsic py0byTety
and Justice, The 2,I6HNe has never
reflected upon the character of this law,
"on the contrary it has approved its
purpose, and believes that such law
should be adopted in all States where
"bigoted Officials exclude the inmates
of any public institution from the con-
ISOLATION of their own church where
there is no official attempt Of this kind
1.-The law is unnecessary. The law en-
bodies a principle Of common justice,
(which needs only to be formulated
"where the principle has been ignored. "

DiUidinq the School Fund.

Again, these Republican demagogues
would make the people believe that the
Geghan Bill is an entering wedge to the
division Of the School Fund of Ohio. But
no sensible voter should for moment
believe or permit himself to be inAuenc-
ed by such shallow nonsence. The Con.
stitution of Ohio, made by Democratic
Constitutional Convention more than
twenty years ago, and ratified by the
people at the ballot box, forevever pro-
hibits any division Of that fund, nor is
any political party in Ohio in favor of
such division. The whole charge, as
harped upon by Republican papers and
stumpers, is the merest clap-trap, dema-
goguery and falsehood, gotten up for
political buncombe. For full and able
discussion of this matter Of dividing the
School Fund the attention of the reader
is respectfully invited to the mastery
speech. of Gen. Morgan, which is publish
ed in this prper.

FAITH IN GREENBACKS.

Senator Morton said in a speech made
in Congress since the panic -
when we look to the cause Of this
panic we find that it was not caused by
any defect in the currency, The people
have faith in our currency, more than
they have ever had in any paper curren
cy this nation has had heretofore.
While we may abuse greenbacks, l tell
you the nation has faith in them. The
great 6Ody9f the people LO0s them, and
nearly aHofthem want mOre."
This man, in his late speech at Urbana
this State, said:
mo word or declaration of mine can
be found in favor of extending the green
back issue beyond the $4oo, 900, 900. The
value of greenbacks now is maintained
by the ability of the Government to pay
them, and by the prospect OF such pay
ment at no remote time" Mr.. Morton
said in the Senate. December IS, 1873,
"there is sort of fanaticism about re-
turn to specie payments. Ihad it pretty
bad once myself; but experience and the
lapse of time have abated the violence
of it in my case very considerably. |
do not regard it as the panacea for all
our ills, recognize gold as the stand
ard Of value that we are bound to come
back to at some time, but not until it is
practicable to do so.
Morton now wants to be considered as
opposed to inAation-and indeed that
he and his party always were opposed.
He is mere demagogue and the servile
creature Of the Administration and the
moneyed power. He wants to put Ma
tional bank currency in place of green
backs and so increase the burdens of the
people and stillmore oppress and rob la
Dor and useful business.
