INELuENcE OF raE SCHOOL, Issue IN OHIo.-

INFLUENCE OF TIE SCHOOL Issue IN OHIo.-
20 The Editor of the Ne,o York Tribune !:
Sir,-In your issue of November 4th you
make the statement that "the Democratic
party in 1875 was beaten by infation."
There is scarcely paper in the State. Demo.
cratic or Republican, that has not time and
again endeayored to make it clear to you
that the rallyipg standard around which our
people instinctively gathered was the; de-
fence of our public schools. Many who
voted the other way on account of the cur
repcy question did so with misgivings. To
resist the onslaught led by Bishop McQuaid,
aad to cancel the barter for the "solid Catho.
lie vote" were the influences that appealed
to every intelligent voter in this State.
1t is perfectly safe to say that every man
that wavered and voted the Republican ticket
did so from this motive alone. 1t is also safe
to assert that every intelligent man that
waYered and voted the Desperate ticket
did so from his convictions on the financial
question. And yet we are not ipflation!sts.
1t was hard, very hard, indeed, for you to
prove it. You infer as much, and misrepre.
sent us. We believe in greenbacks and in
some other way to make them equal to gold
than contracting the amount of their circu-
lation. CuYAHoGA, :.

Every one imagines that washstand sup
piled with running water Is one Of the fore.
most of domestic conveniences. But few
stop to think that its use subjects the Inmate
of the room to all sorts of dangers from the
backing up of the sewer-gases which find
their way through the -Waste.pipe into the
apartment. At the recent meeting of the
American Public Health Association, oil
Baltimore, an extremely valuable and in'
structive paper on the subject OF sewer,
gases was read, in which the writer asserted
that the danger to health from sewer-pipes
wss greater than all the other household
dangers combined. he says the gases gene.
rated therein are so acrid and powerful that
lead is pimpled and pitted by them as If i
had had the smallpox, and in some cases Il
actually perforated like a, colander. We car
imagine, therefore, what work they would
make with the tender human constitution

situated is an inviting field for gee.ogists.
