WEDNESDAY, JULY 81, 1878.

An up country paper asks the Sentinel to
publish the interview of Keyes, Moak and
Enos Here it is in substance, 'tDamn re-
form" - Ml,oaukee Sentinel.
That is mistake, they only damn
such a Republican paper as the Senti-
mel is.

The discovery has just been made
that Carter II. Harrison, of Chicago,
who has been occupying a seat IN
congress for the past year and half,
was not elected. An error was made
In tabulating the returns, and the vote
of one ofthe precincts in the city trans
ferred, making it appear that Harrison
received some 700 more votes than
were actually cast for him. A cor
rection of the mistake elects Davis.
Rep, by As majority; but Harrison
will doubtless hold on to the seat, aud
in case Of contest the House of Rep.
resentatives would probably decide in
his favor, in accordance with its usual
custom of ousting Republican when
ever there was the least ground for
doing it.

SECRETARY Sherman was examined
before the Potter Committee last week.
He stated the character of the visit Of
the Republican statesmen to New Or
leans to witness the action of the
Louisiana Returning Board in 1876,
showing their perfect non-interferance
with the proceedings of the Board !,
and emphatically contradicting the
testimony of Anderson as to a CONVEX.

and Anderson, as related by the latter.

The exchange of compliments (?),
such as this between Democratic pa
pers, betokcns want of brotherly love
on that side of the house that is truly
lamentable. The Fond du Lac Jour-
nal lets drive at the Madison Democrat
as follows:
1t does not seem to have occurred to the
Madison Democrat that Its thin pretensions
to being democratic paper have been ex
ploded. Like the ostrich, which hi des its
head and imagines itself entirely concealed,
the piratical sheet thinks that its lying
name of Democrat is all sufficient while
putting in It's best ticks for the radicals.
Get your Pub. Docs. of your masters, you
renegade. For years you have been sup
ported by radical money, have been quoted
by radical newspapers against the demo-
cratic party, and you are every way low yer
in the scale of public prints than obscure
literature itself

The shot gun policy having been
found to work admirably for the Dem.
ocrats in Mississippi is about to be
adopted on grander and more exten.
sive scale in South Carolina. We
printed an article last week bearing
upon the subject, expressive of the
determination existing there among
Democrats to give Republicans no
voice in the coming election. The
following extract from the Edgefeld
(S. Co. Adoertiser furnishes still fur
Their evidence Of the fact that Republi-
cans have no right in that state which
Democrats are bound to respect:
AS for us, we say this: People of Edge
field, watch this thing narrowly, ceaselessly
jealously, and if you discover any ring or
any fellow, trying to work this game. seize
them and hang them Don't be satisfied with
abusing and ostracizng them, bat seize
them and hang them: In Edgefield let us
have no more OF the negro in politics.

The Democrats of Colorado have
renominated Patterson for Congress
To less enterprizing statesman than
Patterson the compliment would be an
empty one, for Colorado is Republi-
can state; but he can get seat again
in the same way that he secured his
present one. All he has to do is to
pick out day for holding an election,
and run when there is no other candi-
date in the field. That is the way he
had majority before, and the Demo-
cratic House said it was all right.

The Committee appointed by the Soldiers
and Sailors Memorial Association recently,
to inquire into and report to the Association
the effect of the act passed by the Legisla-
ture for the reorganization and better man
agement of the Orphans Home at Xenia,
Ohio, made their report last night.
The Committee is of the opinion that it
is the intention of the act to compel mothers
now having children in the Home to pay to
the new Board of Trustees their pension
money, or take the children from the Home.
Again, the act deprives mothers of de-
ceased soldiers from sending their children
to the Home until they reach the age of
twelve years, just when they begin to be
useful to their mothers and even then their
pensions must 60 to the Trustees.
Your Committee can not but conclude
that the passage of the above act and the
consequent removal OF the Board OF Trus-
tees Just named was an unwise measure and
calculated to destroy the efficiency of the
Home. In view of the fact that the Legis
lature which enacted this law has now adj
journed to meet in January next, we believe
1t would be expedient to hold meeting Of
the ex-solders and sailors of Ohio, irrespec
tive of party, in the city Of Dayton, Ohio
at such time In the future as may be deemed
advisable by the Committee, to take sucl
action rs will secure the repeal OF said law
by the Ohio Legislatureat its session in Jan
uary, 1879. Most respectfully.
A meeting at an early day will be callet
by the Committee.

Board of Education. .

At the meeting of the Board last night
Charles Crapsey's plans drawings and speci,
fications for the new School-house to be
built on the Browne-street lot, were adopted.
The subject of a change in penmanship
was again brought up and both a majority
and a minority report made. An earnest
discussion followed, during which Mr.. Bur
nett was invited to appear and make expla-
nations. The minority was defeated, and
the majority report, which recommended a
change to the Eclectic system, was adopted
by vote of IS ayes to II nays.
A motion to elect the Public Librarian,
the Superintendent of Schools and the Su-
perintendent of Buildings for two years in
stead of one, was laid on the table.
The names of six teachers were set aside
and the remainder referred to the Salary
Committee to report.

The Republican State Committee met
ut Montpelier, Tuesday, and fixed upon
THURSDAY, the 23d of May, as the time, and
Burlington, as the place, for the Republican
State Convention. The time is early; but
not beyond precedent. Four years ago the
State Convention was held in May, and it
was found to be, on the whole, very salts
tisfaetory time This year, the occurrence
of Decoration Day in the middle of the
week following, and Ethe sessions of the
County Courts, which occur in four or five
counties in June, and occupy the month or
more, requiring the attendance of large
numbers of citizens as jurors, witnesses,
lawyers, and parties in suits, seemed to
compel the committee to select an early day,
or else to postpone the Convention till
after haying. Doubtless, the committee
have, on the whole, made judicious selec-
ton of time and of place.
Burlington has been found an exceedingly
accessible and convenient place heretofore,
and is more convenient than ever since the
opening Of the Burlington and Lamoille road
and other recent railroad connections.
The Convention will be large one-thc
