THE TnLE1O DISTRICT.

The editor OF the Cincinnati Gazette talks
as knowingly about this Congressional
DiStiict az If he had bsen a member OF the
last Legislature and had helped make it.
Hs says:
Much outside expectation was disap-
pointed at the defeat of the Republican,
candidats in the Tsledo District. The
Democratic quarrel ever Hurd's nomina-
ton was thought by outsiders to give
Luckey, the Republican, fair prospect,
but Hurd's vote over Luckey is stated al
l,7S2. But there was not ground for this
expectation. In Lucas, the chief county,
there Was nothing in either organization
or candidate 10 give the Republicans any
heart. Several things have taken away
the forces OF organization. For a long
time the national Office having the largest
patronage was in the hands of a man who
run, and probably in this, although work
ing the machine 10 nominate Luckey. The
Nationals last year carried some OF the
county offices, which further reduced the
forces of organization. The national off
ces there de not now furnish an inAuen-
tial, organizing, working force. When
public pnces, il il a wet blanket on the
party. Public opinion had not designated
any candidate after Gen. Cox. Available
nlen were disinelined. II was seen that
the canvass would bs a costly one to the
nominee, rs in general there did not ap.
pear to he any general zeal TO contribute
msney to campaign expenses. In this
chaotic situation little secret machine
work was enough to nominate Luekey by
surprise lie had no public reputation,
aud could not express himself in public.
~ take n candidate from u rural county,
when the other two were from Toledo,
which thinks her local interest l. the only
thing, was bad policy. The Nationals had
respectable business man for candidate.
lIurd is personally popular. The result
was foregone from the nomiualion Of
Luckcy.

Annual Cost or Tho Rebellion.

Our Democratic friends have much TO
say on the expenditures Of the government.
The subject is interesting aud always inn
portant. The money spent is collected
from the people; and they have right to
know why it is spent, and how. The tables
published elsewhere in this issue analyze
the expenditures for the last eight years,
and will enable our readers to see:
First-The amount of the total expen-
ditnres OF the government from 1869 to
1876, inclusive.
Second-The amount OF the ordinary ex-
penditures for the same years.
Third-'The amount Of expenditures due
TO the rebellion.
Fourth-The population of the country
in each OF the years named, and the pro-
portion per capita Of both ordinary ex-
penses and those which were extraordinary
and due to the rebellion.
The figures in the tables may he relied
upon rs correct. They have been carefully
compiled from official sources in the Treas
ury Department, and are presented as en-
tirely trustworthy.
They show these results
First-That since 1869 (the beginning OF
the Grant administration the total ex-
penditures, less redemption of public debt,
have fallen from $685., 1895, ,079.51 in 1869,
to 1858, 459. 797. 33 in 1879.
SeCond-That the ordinary expenditures
have fallen from Sll2,970, 1929 in 1869,
to Sll0,4S5, ,334.60 in 1876.
Third-That the per capita proportion
OF ordinary expenditures was S290 in
1869. and was S244 in 1876.
Fourth-That the per capita proportion
of extraordinary expenditures and those
due to the rebellion was 1886 in 1869, and
1927 in 1875.
Fifth-That the expenses due to the re-
bellion were $685. ,662 "a in 1869, and
Sl40,9l9,6 9,67923 in 1876, or nearly $4,000.

with the management of its affairs. We

Of the people. They need no COMMENT

FROM MILLBURY.


En-. JovRNAL - With your permission
would like to reply TO the Hon. Chas. Parkey,
Principal Of the Millbury Schools. Mr.. Parkey
that am ashamed to own my name,
or that people should know me. Mr.. Editor,
will tell the Hon. gent that am not ashamed
to own my name, for you and the people Of the
county generally know that when ! sign my
name "Millbury" to an article. 1t is from John
Bailey, Of MillbuVy, and that has been made
known through the columns Of your paper for
many years past. Mr.. Parkey admits that he
we'll knew who "Millbury" was. and he would
tell me as did "Jimcrack" Of tie Sentinel.
When writing TO the SsntneI have always put
full name, and WHY always signed my name
or begin to sign "Millbury" tn the short articles
that have appeared from me in your paper IL
more than ! can tell now. 1t might have been
from a knowledge that was very poor writer
and a worse grammnrian, having but common
school education. 1t is quite likely ir ! had
known that should be called mpon to answer
n letter from the Hon. Chas. Parkey, Principal
Of the Millbury Schools, ! should never have
signed the name Of "Millbury" or anything else
The Hon. School. Master can tut what construc
tiou he chooses to nv article or signature. | did
not do 1t williuily or through ignorance, as
hutW NNHN WIS WllilNE hoout Hnu wv nll piN-
pose to take back anything | have said. As /
write nothing but the truth, il is no object to lne
neither do | design tn create a feeling " an
t,gunism between the teachers, but II telling tie
truth does IL that is not INV fault.
In Miss Clara Smiths card there can be
m re than two constructions put Ia II, Tor she
did say be fore several witnesses on the pic mic
grounds that Mr.. Parkey would not allow her
tu dismiss school. And, Mr.. Parkey admits the
reason for not dismissing school was to save
time. and guess there was some truth in the
admi ssinn
In conclusion, I will say don't know wheth-
er Psrkey tells the truth ar not, but ! de- know
that he misrepresents me in one respect as
never waxed wroth over the hsinous crime Of
his keeping school ON pic mic days, and also
did not ieign ignorance as to his name because
did not know it. ! asked two or three per
sons his name, but could not learn it, and am
at loss now to think there should be such n
