The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1876-04-13

The Cincinnati Enquirer is beating up
for a large crowd to attend the Demo
cratic State Convention, and its evident
intention is to have the "outside pres
sure" so strong, that the declarations"
of the convention shall be just suited to
its particular views. OF course, every
Democrat in Ohio wishes to see large
convention, but it will not rebound to
the interests Of the party, or to any can
didate, or to any men, to undertake by
outsiders to squelch the sentiment of the
delegates. There must be fair play in
that convention, an earnest and respect
full hearing o all men, and some conces-
sions all around, or it will be mere mock
cry to call it convention, and attempt
TO bind anybody by its action. If the
Enguirer'8 gong is only to be beaten IN
that body, and the convention is to be
made the mere instrument Of its will,
then why go through the tormality OF a
convention, and why not at once conhde
to that journal the complete guardian
ship of the party, and let all other mem
bers of the organization forever hold
their peace ?-Plajn Dealer.
We have been fearful that the location
of the Convention in Cincinnati was a
step favorable to the "bummers" of the
Enquirer, but we now hope for a good
time with happy result. We hope the
gentlemen of the committee who located
the Convention will be perfectly satisfied
with the result. The Enquirer'S gong
seems to be sounded for mischief and
not for harmony. But we have every
confidence the Convention will do its
business properly. The Pennsylvania
Democracy has set us in Ohio good ex-
ample, and we ought to profit thereby.

MERCHANDISE THROUGH THE NAILS
The Senate Postoffice Committee has received
letter from the Superintendent of the Rail
way Service recommending that the rate for
merchandise through the mails should be varied
according TO the distance. The average cost of
third-class matter is 20 cents per pound, and
he recommends seven different rates, ranging
from cents per pound for distances under 300
miles, increasing cents per pound for every
additional 500 miles to 80 cents to offices on
the Pacific slope. Mr.. Hamlin, the chairman
of the committee, is exceedingly DESTROYS to
fix the rates for merchandise in mails, SO as to
pay the cost that he may carry out his plan of
reducing the postage on letters to two cents, as
the many will be benefited by this reduction
and few only by the reduction Of rates on mer-
chant Use.

BAD NEWS FOR SENSATIONAL DEMOCRACY.
The Democratic papers have teerned with ru-
mors OF disruption of the Cabinet. and espe
cially has it been industriously circulated that
Secretary Bristow was to retire Immediately
after the tel minaton of The trial of Gen. Bah
cock. But, as usual, there is no truth in any
OF these SENSATIONS. Washington press dis
patch says: "A prominent member of the Cab.
met authorizes the assertion that all published
reports of serious d'sagreements between the
President and any member of the Cabinet are
absolutely devoid of foundation in fact, and it
is stated upon the same authority that there
has never been. either of recent date OF at any
time within many months, the occurrence OF
any event in Cabinet session which could by
any possible means be construed into an i'll
dicalon of bad feeling or premonition of a rul-
t,lre. Most positively is this true of late.
These statements have been supcrinduced by
many declarations 20 the effect that the Secre-
taiy OF the Treasury will shortly retire from
his present office, and, furthermore, that the
acquittal of Gen. Babcock would be sure pro-
moter of such action OIL the part of Mr.. Bris-
tow. There is. direct authority for a contra
dcton Of this impression, and Cabinet officers
say that the result of the trial can have no eff
feet whatever in disturbing the harmony of the
