do not want the reign Of bloody commune
instead Of the benedcent Constitution and
laws by which we are now governed. Let
there, therefore, be no temporizing. Let the

ALL ATTEMPTS to revive tho WhiG party or
to form any new party by small assembly OF
politicians will be futile, for such movements
when successful originate with the people,
when they feel that the public welfare de-
mands radical change In tho administration
of tho Government, and that the old parties

ISAsNrcH as the Republicans Of Ohio desire
to carry the next election in that State, there
Is no danger of their being guilty of such folly
as to make BEN WADE chairman of the con-

and unless his policy Is uncquivocally indorsed
q Democratic victory will be the result.
