WHAT WE ENDORSE.

The Belmont county Democrats are
the only ones who have had the temeri>
ty to endorse the O'Connor Legislature.
The others would like to keep it out of
the canvass, but it will not stay out
.Steu6snVille Herald.
No Democrat in the State desires to
keep the acts of the last Legislature out
of the canvass. They have saved the
taxpayers of this State over million dol
lars, In their appropriations they redu-
ced the amount S7oI .264 78 less than the
Republicans appropriated in 1877. This
too, includes S283 7.oI for deficiencies
incurred by the Republicans in 1877.
Why should we be timid about endorsing
such a grand saving in times like these d?
The Herald tackles an elephant.
The last Legislature passed law to
punish persons for swindling laborers
who hold orders from employers.
1t passed an act making it unlawful to
pay wages in script, check, draft, other~
wise than in money.
1t requested our Senators and Repre-
sentatives in Congress to vote for bill
granting pensions to surviving soldiers,
and to the widows Of deceased soldiers
of the Mexican war,
1t prayed our Senators and Represent
tatives to bring about the repeal of the
Resumption Act.
Itpassed an act which provides for as.
certaining the number of soldiers unS
marked graves in Ohio, thus revering
the memory of the patriotic dead.
And more; one of the very nrst acts
of that Legislature was to pass law
providing that the colored citizens Of
Ohio may exercise the same rights and
privileges respecting military affairs that
are enjoyed by the white people. This
is probably what the Herald doesn't like,
as it wipes out that Republican legislaN
ton which prohibited the colored citizens
from exercising this privilege,
All this is what the Belmont Democra'
cy endorse, and so will all honest people
throughout the State.-SteRbsnViAs Ga.

A LONG TRAMP.

Some time ago, says the Hamilton Spectator, q
man and his wife applied for lodging at the police
station. They gave their names as Michael and
Mary Cahill and they had with them tiny little
babe, blue eyed tootsey wootsey in a mans
shirt. Cahill was little man, very polite to his
wife, large red-faced woman, AS they passed
through the city on their way utthey put togeth.
er what little money they had and bought little
baby carriage for the child. Last night they
came back again as large as life and the baby
larger. They had tramped to Barrie, by way Of
Toronto, and back, wheeling the baby all the
way. Mrs. Cahill says that the ladies along the
line of march had been very kind to her baby,
and had presented it with many pretty articles Of
dress, 1t worea nice little cap, and looked rather
nice in little cloak which some good woman
who pited the littl2 wanderer had given to ii, The

BRICK PoMRRoY was one of the big
guns at the Toledo National Convention.
The follOwing.is an extract from his
paper:
"a number of honest men were duped
into this Toledo movement, which proves
it to have been short sighted and its guns
of short range, by the fact that Green
back men all over the country have
already or are rapidly ignoring it,
because the work it laid out, the plat.
form it adopted. and the men it put for
ward, are those who for years have been
known as political dead beats, quack
doctors of medicine and moralists, whose
united work would confuse even more
people than were ever assembled at the

a. CULTIVATING THE THIEVES"

Reformer Schurz and other patriots
met at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, New
York, in May, 1876, Just before the Re-
publican and Democratic National Con-
yentions, and modestly assumed to de-
eide the Presidential election. They at
fected the highest virtue, and proclaim
ed the following as the condition OF their
supporting candidate for the Preslden'
cy; ,A no
"The man to be intrusted with the
Presidency this year must have deserved
not only the confidence of honest men,
but also the fear and hatred of thieves.
He who manages to cultivate the thieves
cannot be the candidate for honest men.
Every American citizen who has the tuN
ture of the republic and the national
honor seriously at heart should solemnly
resolve that the country must now have
a President whose name is already
watchword of reform, whose capacity
and courage for the work are matters OF
record rather than of promise.
These conditions fitted exactly to the
character and courage Of Mr. Tilden, as
shown in his war againstthe Tweed Ring,
when acting simply as private citizen,
and in his work of reform as Governor Of
the State. No citizen or body of citizens
would have undertaken either of these
great tasks unless Mr.. Tilden had put
himself at the head of the movement; (;
and he may be said, almost alone, to
have achieved its success. Mr.. Hayes,
on the other hand, had never lifted a
finger for any reform, and was known to
be wholly incapable Of initiating one.
His record in Congress was below that OF
the ordinary herd while as Governor OF
the State he made no mark, and was
hardly known outside the limits of Ohio.
In spite of this contrast between the
two men, these Independents, or Liber-
ais as they called themselves, with few
honorable exceptions, not only supports
ed Hayes, but became his ardent cham
pions. And when he was defeated, they
Joined the conspiracy to cheat Mr.. ills
den out of the Presidency, and some Of
them are now sitting athis council board,
as benehciaries of the Fraud. ReEormer
Schurz and his associates could not tolls
crate in May, 1876 candidate who had
not I" the fear and hatred Of thieves. "
But they got over that sentiment soon af-
ter the 9TH of November, when, in order
TO reach the Presidency, itbecame neces
sary to organize plotin which theftwas
one of the least of the many crimes per-
petrated to make success certain:
They told the coNntry that che who
manages to cultivate the thieves cannot
be the candidate for honest men," For
the first time in the history Of the coun-
try the Presidency was stolen by the aid
of these professional "reformeis," and
the White House has been converted lit>
orally into a den OF thieves. The thieves
who stuffed ballot boxes, stole Tilden
votes, fabricated protests, forged false re-
turns, and committed perjury for politi>
cal purposes, are those who have been
most " cultivated " by Hayes, and have
been made special cases " for appoint.
ment to office. And Reformer Schurz
and Reformer Evarts and other patrons
of an ideal civil service have done their
