HAYESISM IN OHIO.

its professions, its pretentions, its faithful
friends and its future We believe that in
all surrenders one party or the other is a
most decided victor. The drift and tendency
of Mr.. Hayess policy is to ignore the neces-
sity for the longer continuance of the Re-
publican party. His course is precisely
that of an assignee in bankruptcy or an exc
cutor of dead mans estate lie has devoted
the greater part of his time, so far, to wind
lug up the affairs of the political organization
which elected him. The MORNING APPEAL
thinks this assumption of the part of an
signee or executor an unwarranted one
and most earnestly protests against it.
Meantime the President and his friends have
shown great anxiety to have the party
everywhere, endorse his policy. Especially
was the effort to secure this endorsement in
Ohio very strenuous and urgent. The as
sumption would seem to be that the result in
the State of Ohio will prove that the party
not only sustains the President but fourishes
under his leadership. So it happens that the
Ohio election is in the nature of test Or,
perhaps it We're more correct to say that the
original plan of the Administration was to
make it a test. If a recent letter written at
Cincinnati states the truth and we suspect
it does Hayes is prepared to claim an en-
dorsement of his policy in either event. If
the Republicans win he will point to the plat
form and exclaim g That means an approval
of my policy by the party which nominated
me If the Democracy win he will quite
as confidently declare that the Republicans of
Ohio agree with him in the assumption that
the further existence of their organization is
not necessary. This is heads I win, tails you
lose. The correspondent to whom we have
alluded predicts that the Democratic candi-
date for Governor of Ohio Bishop will re-
ceive majority of $4,000 or 10000, and
the Democracy win the legislature. We do
not see how it can be otherwise. Ours is
very tough party if it can live on after the
necessity for its further existence has sub
sided. Hayes policy, if it means anything
at all means this. He deals with the party
which elected him just as if it were an army
of volunteers whose term of enlistment had |
expired and the cause for whose services no |
longer existed We think he is wrong We |
think his sympathes are very much in favor
of the men and measures that made George
B. Mcclellan candidate for the Presidency
in 1864, that gave Andrew Johnson their
loud applause, and that nominated Horace
Greeley at Cincinnati in 1872. Radicalism
means beginning at the root. In the history
of Republican Radicalism or Radical Repub-
Icanism, which is all the same, Thaddeus Ste
vens was the strongest and clearest exemplar
It's application meant and included and
brought about the abolition of slavery and
the Acknowledgement of the Blacks. Also it
limited at the necessity for the imposition of
political disabilities upon the leaders of the
1t had, moreover, among its half /
formed projects, the conversion of the South
into territory, and some other plans, more
or less wise or unwise. What is known as
Liberal Republicanism (the sort of No-mans t
