MILTON SAYLER, in the convoca-
ton of democratic leaders, at Colum-
bus, last week, said: eff we lose
Ohio we lose the next President.
Ohio is the battle ground" Repub
licans should be impressed with this
idea. The democrats propose to
make it the battle ground of the
Presidential campaign. Sam Cary
unfoIded the same idea. He said !:
1--WE must move the people to
understand, as we understand, that
this is n national battle" This
is the gauge of battle, Republi-
canism VS.. Democracy. 1t is a clean
issue. Let us meet it as we met the
issue in 1861, with compact, solid
columns. The issue, now as then,
is momentous, involving, as we veri-
ly believe, the very existence of ma
tional life, unity, freedom and peace.
There should be no sleepless eyes, on
the part of Republicans, in a contest
thus important and far-reaching in
its results.

All In One Year.

Democratic rule in indianapolis is
an expensive experiment. One year
ago it went into power. At that time
there were $250,OOO in the city
Treasury, and yet in less than one
year they have not only expended
this sum, together with all the taxes
which fall due in 1876 ($S93,67l 81, }
but have run the city half million
dollars in debt besides.
One year of this sort of rule was
enough; last Wednesday came an
other election, and the people returned
the Republicans to power.

The Sober, Second Thought.

The Indiana municipal elections
occur on the first Wednesday in May.
Last year they generally went demo-
cratic. This year comes the reaction.
In indianapolis, contrary to expecta-
tion, the Republicans gained a COM
plete victory. 1t is considered the
most significant victory since 1864.
In Richmond, also, there are large
Republican gains. Ft. Wayne like
wise gave the democracy a Waterloo
defeat. In the State at large the av-
erage result has been in favor of the
Republicans.
The campaign of 1875 has opened
well for the Republicans. Hard work
and thorough organization are all
that is required to keep the Union
flag aloft. Let us see to it that this
is done.

The late defunct democratic Leg
islature excused from even censure
the bribers and the bribed, in that
body, which was proven by sworn
testimony, and we notice that the re-
cent democratic meeting of the head
centers of the party, at Columbus,
proposes the same tactics for the par
ty at large in the approaching can
vass. Said Sam Cary, eve are able
to defend the Governor, the Legisla-
ture and State officers" Herein is
the difference between democrats
and Republicans. The latter expose
and denounce such practices, even
though their own friends are imperil-
ed thereby, while the democrats,
even where proven guilty of corrup-
tion, as in the case of our recent
democratic Legislature, boldly ex-
cuse and uphold the villainy. 1t is
easy, under such state of facts, for
the voter to decide which party is
worthy to be trusted with either Ma
tional or State affairs.

The farmers in Tennessee are suf
fering serious loss in horses and
mules by death, caused by an insect
known as the buffalo gnat. This is
a new pest, and if reports be true, the
effect upon the crop of 1875 in that
section will be disastrous. Many
farmers have lost all their stock
have no money to purchase others,
and must of necessity, allow their
lands to lie idle. With the grasshop-
pers, potato bugs, frosts and buffalo
gnats, farmers have certainly hard
time.

The Supreme Court, of this State,
has just rendered an important de-
cision regarding the taxation of
Church property. The case went up
from Hamilton county. The Court
holds that residence property, occu-
pied as such by any attache or at
taches of church, whether located
by the side of the church or not, was
liable for taxation, while all property
used exclusively for religious wor-
ship. or for school purposes, is not Ii
able for taxation.
