AS an evidence of Republican lib

the Dayton Journal, a paper that
has always been loyal to the old flag
and never known to go back on an
appropriation:
Mr.. Thompson has introduced a
bill into the Ohio House to appropri-
ate $4,000 to pay the transportation
of Ohio Militia who have been in
service over one year to and from
the Centennial Exposition. We
move to amend that all the h norary
members and their families and
friends be included; also that the
members of the City Councils, Boards
of Education and so forth be invited
to share in the blessings of Ohio lib.

Every three weeks the Ohio Re-
publican reform Legislature takes
three days rest and vacation from
its onerous labors, at a cost to the
taxpayers of the State of about
$4,000! And this is the party that
clamored so much about economy
and the extravaganza of the last
Democratic General Assembly. The
taxpayers can see how much they
have bettered their condition by
again voting into power the Repub-
lican party. Let us see: $47, 900 for
a Centennial jamboree and $4,000
every three weeks for recreation
How long can our Treasury stand
such fl-hing? Great is the Repub-
lican party on reforml

Whenever any official under Pres
ident Grant has been shown to be
connected with such questionable
transactions that his retirement from
Office became essential, the Presi-
dent has given him a written certifi-
cate of good character. These GER
tificates have become SO common that
when his private secretary was sus-
pected and on trial, the certificate
would not be received except under
oath. Babcock's character is, We
believe, the first one that Grant has
sworn to.

PENDLEToN AND THE PREsI.
From the o. 10 Patriot


An ong the many able Democrats
spoken of in connection with the
Presidency for the centennial year,
We do not hesitate to express our pre-
ference for the learned gentleman
whose name heads this article. Mr..
Pendleton is truly a statesman of
many parts. His great natural abil-
tiles have been fortified and strength
ened by a most thorough course Of
mental training and development
He stands to-day with few, if any
~superiors in point Of literary train
ing or general knowledge. This,
then, fits him for any field of labor.
Add to this his experience in the
halls of Congress and his lifetime
study of politics and the history of
his country, and we have a man pre-
eminently fitted for the Presidential
chair, in point of ability. To this
we are to add his sterling integrity
and moral honesty. AID last, but
not least, he is the champion Of the
greenback theory, and a bold oppo-
nent of the National Banks. More
than anything else this makes him
popular with the masses The PEG
pie feel that he was the firstto cham
pion their cause and cry halt to the
| National Banks. He is not an inia.
Zionist, but desires the currencykep'
equal to the wants of trade. He
does not favor the idea of discardine
gold as a currency entirely, but fav
ors legal tender notes issued by thu
Government as the best substitute
In short, he is the most able because
of his versatility Of talent, and thu
most available because of his popu
iarity with the masses of any othe
candidate yet named. Thurman
Ewing, Ranney and Hendricks ar
good and able men, but in our judg
ment none would be so able an,
available as Mr.. Pendleton. Let hin
be nominated.

THE REFoaM ~LEalsLATuRE.

..--
What sort of a Legislature this
Republican Legislature is may be
gathered from the following letter to
the Cleveland Herald, Republican
written at Columbus under date of
February Is:
II am of the opinion that never in
the Legislative history of the State
were greater confusion, greater row
dyism, and more disgusting scenes
manifested in either branch than
those that occurred in the House last
week, and in fact, l doubt whether
the rowdyism, downright and com
plete, ever approached the character
of much that then and there seemed
to rule. In one-half day, and this
during the session, one member Of
the House was dragged around the
hall in his chair by his chums, and
two reporters got at fisticuf and were
obliged to be separated. Think o.
this, We solid yeomanry of the State
and yet half is not told.
l am not writing to day in any
hypercritical sense, but propose only
to post your readers upon certain
facts; and facts certainly, however
stubborn they may be, are usually
very healthy in the outcome. If 81
be the people are able to learn tn,
facts, they are as consequence pre-
pared to act intelligently thereafter
Now then, while the Republican par
ty as a whole here will accomplish
much, and perhaps all that shoult
be expe> ted, there are certain thing
that justice requiies should be ven
tilated--ventilated for the good o
the party"

Hon. A. I. WALLING, Chairman Of
the Democratic State Central Com
m.ttee, has called the Committee
together on the 18th inst, for the
purpose of setting a day for our State
Convention. For one we are in ia
vor of an early State Convention, not
less than a month before the assemb-
ling of the National Convention, and
we hope the Committee will not fail
to e the Importance of taking this
step, in order that the Democrats of
Ohio may go into the Presidential
contest with perfect understanding
and harmony in their ranks. There
never was a more favorable period
than the present for one of those
great strokes of policy which stamp
Iindellibly upon the democratic party
.he feature of honest dealing. The
people ire ripe and clamorous for
reform; they have submitted to
abuses of the grossest character by
the Money Power, long enough
The governmental patronage has be-
come a monster engine, whose heavy
wheels seem destined to crush out
the last vestige of liberty, and it is
about time tlfat the voice of those fol
whose benefit the government was
destined, ought to be heard, and the
Democrats should let the toiling mil
lions understand that it is capable
of the trust.

The very statesmanlike "argu-
ment" that the Democracy is dead,
which has been used every canvass
for the past dozen years, is being
furnished for duty again. There is
a possibility that the assertion lacks
the ingredient of truth. OF course
our radical friends believe it to be
true or they would not use it; but in
their haste TO ''save the country
again. they have not time to fully
investigate the matter. There is
some vitality yet left in that organi-
cation, we have been told.

The State Prohibition Convention

The State Prohibition Convention
met in Columbus on the 23d of Feb
ruary, and adopted resolutions de-
claring the making and vending of
alcoholic liquors as a beverage as
fraught with evil to property, peace,
health and life; and that since the
work of Legislation is political, and
all other parties fail to advocate pro-
hibitory action of liquor traffic, q
special prohibition party is demand
ed" Resolutions were also passed
indorsing the Common School sys-
tenn and declaring against the exclu-
sion of the Bible and against the
dissertation o fthe Sabbath by carous-
ais of liquor drinking transgressors.
The following State ticket was then
nominated: Secretary of State, E. F.
Chapman, of Montgomery; Judge OF
Supreme Court, d. w. Gage, OF
Cleveland; Member of Board ofPub-
lie Works, Ferdinand Schumacher,
of Akron; Comptroller of the Treas.
urv, J. C. Murdoch, of Morgan coun-

what it will all amount to cannot bt

The Republicans of Indiana re-
solve against paying the rebel debt.
When all rebel contracts read 'paya-
Bile SO many years after the indie
pendence of the Confederate States
such resolutions are all buncombe,
and intended only to revive that spirit
of hate which all good men desire to
e buried. The war cry is the only
stock in trade of the Republican par
ty. The whisky ring, the navy
frauds, the pension swindles, and the
bungling legislation of the Republi-
can party upon the finances are too
much to defend, and by setting up
the war cry they hope to evade it.
But the people will not forget them.

The aggregate reductions made by
