Redistricfing Ohio.

COLUMBUS, May THE Democratic
members of the Assembly held eau
Gus tonight to consider the question of
redistricting the State for Congression'
al purposes. After three hours dis
cussion, resolution declaring it the
sense of the caucus that the State shall
be redistricted was defeated, under a
ruling from the chairman that although
80 votes were given for the resolution
and but 8 in opposition to it, that the
resolution was lost, inasmuch as quo
rum of the Democratic Senators had
not voted.

THE Cincinnati Times argues that
the fate of Republicans in Ohio for
many years to come depends upon a
harmonious convention in June, and a
united and energetic party in October.
Declaring that there Is but one way in
which these two requisites can be se-
cured, the Times says 1--WE must let
the President take care of himself, and
train our guns exclusively upon the
Democratic party, and upon its illegit
innate offspring; If an occasional idiot
gets up and Vociferstes that we must
set ourselves to pulling each others
hair again, by giving the President a
character in our platform, then the
aforesaid idiot should be very prompt
ly and vigorously knocked down.

THElR TRUE FRIEND.-The National
Defend states the case in this way :
at is well enough for the labor lead
ers TO claim that they are the only
true friends of the workingmen, but
sensible toilcrs for bread will receive
such broad assertions with several
grains of allowance. The Democratic
party has ever been the host friend of
the working classes. For evidence of
this we have only to point to the fact
that, until the Labor party came to
have an existence, 1t was the boast OF
the Republican leaders that all The
wealth, culture, refinement and moral
ity of the country was centred in their
party, while the Democracy was made
up of the working people mainly. One
