ROW IN The DEMOCRATIC CAMP.

in Ohio Just now, rs ono of tho incidents Of

must also carry the Catholic Church, and
TINT tho people Of Ohio were not yet willing
TO accopt tho practical and odioua manifesto

The Catholic Telegraph thoreupon rushed
to the defense Of GEouAa with hearty good
will and put in some telling blows. Ae an
instance how ono bigot can lash another, tho
following from the Telegraph will show:
Had The Democratic Convention refused to nominate
Mr. 0E0HAH. every Catholic citizen who honors lis
manhood and hia religion would haro yindlcAtcd both

faction Of dEouAA'a name hy political revolution,
Hhch would nasa nstonished Democratic bigotry.
lis not tho first time the Telegraph has
disciplined tho Democratic pnrty. When the
GEoaAN bill was pending in the Legislature,
the Telegraph warned the Democratic mem
bers Who should dare to oppose it that when
my Of them appeared in the political aroma
again it would "put brand upon thcm that
every Catholic win understand" It was un.
der the kissing influence Of this brand, newly
hoated for the occasion, TINT GnouAN was
rouominated, and tho saule hot stick will keep
him On the ticket, the Enquirer to the con-
trary notwithstanding. Tha reason why he
will be kapt on Ia tlAt tho Catholics have
claim upon the Democrats which they cannot
deny, and that they are going 10 enforce It.
Upon this point, we quote again from the
IehgrapA:
That claim Of Catholic citizens could not b de-

citizens who hsvo supported II, and the uranAu bill

Tho Enquirer, however, returned to the
attack, and boldly carried the war into the
enemy's camp by demanding TINT GEau4N
should got on thu ticket instauter. Tho ef-
feet Of this was cxhilasating in the extreme.
The Telegraph no longer stopped to arguo or
reason with the Enquirer. It put its brand
into the fire aud heated it white hot, and then
called upon tho Enquirer, In the na,ne Of the
entire body Of Catholics OF Hamilton County,
to make publto apology for its dlsgznccful
conduct in seeking to drive GxouAN OF the
ticket. 1t gave the Enquirer s]lght foro-
