CORR UPTON IN The NA VY.

The New York Sun in showing up the
corruption of the Navy Department
says:
A comparison of the six years imme-
diately preceding the war. when the
navy was comparatively strong, with the
six years under Grant, when it is notori.
ously feeble, reveals the effects of the
corrupting system which Secor Robson
has perfected into an instrument of
fraud, prodigality, and plumber. The
figures are taken from the last Treasury
report

at is asserted again and again that
the issue in Ohio was the naked one of
initiation and hard money, that all other
issues were bugaboos, and that the result
was the verdict of the people for hard
money and resumption in 1879 come
what may. There never was a greater
mistake made than this, and if it be ac-
cepted as an article of faith, and the Re-
publican party in other States shaped in
accordance with it the result can scarcely
fail to be disastrous Cleveland Herald,

Is the Republican party like the old
lady's soap, all LIEF Is not the Resump-
ton Act party measure? Is not John
Sherman the father of this baby? Did
not the Republican State platform of
Ohio endorse the Grant Administration,
and hence its policy? Did not Sherman,
Hayes, Schurz and the leading Republi-
can stumpers endorse the Resumption
Act and urge against inAatiOn2 Did
they not in procession and at their win
dows hang the rag baby?
Now, what did all this mean il it did
not mean specie payments? What did
it mean if not contraction of all values,
except bonds and mortgages Who
more fit to champion this measure than
Sherman, an old Ring-leader in whisky
and other operations in Congress?
Is the Herald afraid of the hard money
baby now? Is it afraid of hard times
ahead ? Is it alarmed that hard money
and hard times will prove disastrous"
to the party? How long shall the party
in power be allowed to dodge RESPONSE
bility ?-dodge the consequences of their
ruinous and robbing policy?

At the time of our last issue, we were

tainty whether or not Senator-elect

Haines ran ahead of his ticket in both

There were Ill votes cast for j. Odell,
Prohibitionist. The total vote given was
2S083. The population of Cuyahoga
county is exactly one-half of that OF
Hamilton county. The latter county
polled 48,937 votes Upon that basis
Cuyahoga county should have given pa
468. In other words, Cuyahoga polled
$500 votes iE excess of Hamilton county,
where we gave an enormous poll, poll
that was undoubtedly largely fraudulent.
Hamilton county, with our population
on the same basis with that Of Cuyahoga
county, would have given $4,000 votes
This result accounts for the fact that the
election judges, in violation of law, ad-
iOurned from the voting places, where
the votes are required to be counted, to
whisky and beer saloons, where they
counted them privately and in disre-
gard of that provision which permits
every candidate or representative OF a
candidate to be present, and gives that
right as peremptOry qualification. II
is easy to see from this exhibit that the
Cuyahoga county returns are fraud.
There could not be in that county nearly
1000 votes more given pro rata than
were cast in Hamilton, where there is a
still larger city. The superhuity is a
fraud of the most Llaring character. A
county which was 800 Democratic, and
for two elections previous, is not likely
to give 5000 Republican twelve months
later, when the majority of the counties
in the State show Democratic gains Gin
