The Democratic politicians have long
regarded all men who own property as
criminals-especially if they acquired
property by honest industry.
Now look at the following section of
law recently passed by the Democratic
Legislature. Why it should be regarded
as crime to own or possess q fish pond
it might be difficult to guess. If farm
er has a suitable place, and chooses to
raise his own fish, where is the crime? Is
it any more criminal than to own corn
field, or a meadow, or an OK, or an ass?
SECTION 35. Whoever, in any of the
waters of any creek, river, canal lake,
pond, or reservoir, or any body of water,
whether artificial or natural, lying with
in the State of Ohio except the waters Of
Lake Erie, Injuries, or kills, or catches, in
any other manner than by hook and line,
any fish, except minnows, or owns or
possesses any fish pond, fish net, fish
sein, except seins to catch minnows, in
or connected with any of the waters in
the State of Ohio, except the waters of
Lake Erie, or in any way maliciously dis
turbs any fish in any private fish pond
shall be fined for each offense not more
than fifty dollaas nor less than ten dol
lars or be imprisoned in the Jail of the
county not less than ten days nor more
than sixty days And provided further
that it shall be unlawful to catch or de
stroy fish in any manner during the
spawning season, excepting reservoirs
containing one thousand acres or more
from the first day of May to the fifteenth
day of June in each year, with the same
penalties for a violation of this provision
as above provided in other cases

is precisely what the Constitution of the
United States says no State shall do. 1t
is a settled doctrine of the courts that
laws existing at the time and place of
making a contract enter into and form a
part of it as really as if they had been
expressly referred to or incorporated in
its terms. This doctrine, however, has
no application to laws subsequently en-
acted and, if the effect of such laws is to
impair the obligation of the contract,
then, Of course, they are void by 'the su-
preme law Of the land" The Supreme
Court Of the United States has rendered
the country an important service in
blocking the efforts of the States, by stay
laws and exemption laws, to release debt
ors from the legal obligations which grow
| out of their contracts.

The. Piketon Courier has abandoned
the patent sham, and the paper is now all
printed at home, being the only paper
printed in Pike county. Both of the
Waverly papers are running on the pat
ent swindle. The new editor of the
Courier, Mr.. Vaughters, is live Repub-
lican, and takes no stock in the traitor in
the White House. We rejoice to know
that there is at least one Republican pa
per besides the Standard, in the new

Bishop Gilbert Haven has been ex-
pressing himself again. He says, in Iii
on Herald. that President Hayes, for his
betrayal of the cause of liberty, will suf-
fer from the American people worse
contempt and detestation than has stamp
ed the names of even Arnold and Jeffer-
son Davis" The Bishop is an influential
man of the powerful denomination in one
of whose sanctuaries the President wor-
ships s"-[Cin. Times.
Bishop Haven presided at the Annual
Conference of the NJ. E. Church at Chilli
cothe last summer.

We do not see what is the use of tell
ing lie which every body knows to be a
lie. In the last number of Harper's
Weekly is an article in which it is re-
peated about four times, that the title of
Hayes was settled, by the Commission,
and then ratified by Congress. Now ev-
erybody ought to know that Congress did
no such thing, but that the Democratic
majority in the House expressly declared
that Hayes was not elected, and that
Tilden was elected.

Mary Clemmer writes letter for the

Carl Schurz We do not know whether
Mary is wife, an old maid or grass
widow. If the Hayes gang are to be re-
lied upon, no peron ever did or said any
thing unless there was some selfish mo-
tive behind it. Can it be possible that
the talented Mary has her cap set for the
Dutch widower?

TO GOD BE THE GLORY.

To God be the glory great things he has done,
So loved He the world that he gave us his Son,
Who yielded his life an atonement for sin,
And opened the Life Gate that all may go in.

To every believer the promise of God;
The vilest offended who truly believes,
That moment from Jesus pardon receives.
Great things He hath taught us, great things
He hath done,
And great our rejoicing thro' Jesus the Son,
But purer and higher and greater will be,
Our wonder, our transport when Jesus we see.

"Glory to God /" tho Christ has come,

And lifted up to that glowing star.

For even children the anthem ring.
Yes let them sing, for Christ has laid
His hand with blessing on their head
Sweeter to Him than angels tones
Are songs that come from His little ones.
