THE CASE ADMITTED AWAY.

THE CASE ADMITTED AWAY.
One of the organs Of the Democracy, if
not the chief, has disguised its party by
admitting away the whole case. In its
eagerness to retail scandal, the Times fell
into the silly blunder of placing the whole
hope of the Democratic party for success
upon the corruption and treachery Of three
members of the Returning Board-Messrs.
Casanave, kenner and Wells. Unless,
therefore, these three staunch and true
men realize the last hope of Democracy,
the party must stand defeated by the con-
fession of its own organ. Alas! for the
futility of human hopes. The weakness
Of the enemy has been disclosed, while
the trusted agents of the right remain
firm.
The provisional government of this
State has appointed returning board Of
its own, with an assigned duty to assist
the lawful board in the duty of counting
the votes. 1t is very evident this pro-
visional returning board has made up its
mind to count in ''Tilden, Nichols and
REFORM" and it is perhaps fortunate for
the country that they have no authority
to decide anything. This board has
"taken rooms" adjoining the Senate
Chamber, ready to be called in when the
legal Returning Board needs advice.
Now is the time to suggest "compro-
mises," adjustments, and other half
way measures between the State govern
ment and the provisional concern which
has bulIed the whole people for the last
three or four years. Who will make the
motion?

The name Of RUrHERroRp B HAYB;
has been so often seen as anasprsnt fol
some Office that he is pretty well known
to the people of Ohio.
He was born in Delaware, Ohio, il
1899 he graduated at Kenyon College
an, obtained his professional education
at Cambridge, Mass. He entered the
army ct the beginning Of our civil val
a. major, and va San time to tim,
advanced until he fd1 IA the rank o'
briga,,,er general.
He WAS elected to Congress In 1891
over JosErH C. BUrLKR. The Speaker
failed to discover great abilities in him
and as consequences he was appointed
on two OF the most unimportant com
mittees OF the House-that Of the Ii
brary and that Of Private Land Claims
II 1853 Gen. HArss was again elected
to Congress, this time over THEoDoRl
-s- H
Cook. After one session OF this Con
gress had been held he was nominated
for Governor, and on his election ovel
THuRxAs by small majority, he resign
ed his seat in Congress. At the close
Of his term as Governor he was again ,
candidate but was defeated in the norni
mating convention. In 1869 he wa'
again taken up through the management
| OF CoLuMBus DELANo, and was agair
successful by small msj,rity.
His recent candidacy is fresh In every
ones memory, as is the Incident OF hi'

in a few days thereafter he did thankful

intellectually and morally Mr. HAVE
belongs to4the dead level of mediocrity
He lie without force, and without salien
points OF character While he certainly
ranked lower in ability than any Of hi
competitors at Cincinnati, he possessed
the important merit Of never hayins
done anything to be criticised.
As a lawyer he was not ranked abov
the second or third class in bis city. Il
the army he passed along respectfully
taking his promotions as they fell to bin
by rule. In Congress he was among th'
most obscure members, noted, il at all
only for the machine like regularity Wit
which he voted with his party. As Gov
ernor of Ohio his several administrs

The Repub,,can p,a,form.

Assuming that platforms are chiefly
tesignedto furnish texts for partisan
brawlers, that adopted at Cincinnati may
be regarded as a creditable contrivance.
As an indication Of what the Republican
authorities will do il the government is
delivered over to them Tor another four
years, it would be broad burlesque II it
were no, an impu,lent fraud.
1t is hardly possible to believe that Its
authors were serious il We firss read their
-2lori6cs,ion and then look TO the
reeking corruption at Washington -
Their high sounding cant about terretipg
out and Furnishing plunderers is a bit of
brazcn eflrontery, in the face of the fact
that large share of them have been for
years engaged in hiding the thsfs, Of an
other large share.
The wayfsring man must be very
great fool indeed who hopes for reform
through the very men who have made re-
form necessary.
The "bloody shirt" resolution is well
suited to its object--thst of exciting the
lowest and basest passions Itis skilfully
drawn, and is evidently the masterpiece
Of the most ingenious demagogue OF
them all. II this can be m ,de the key
