Mr.. Thurman is plain spoken man, and In
dealing with the doings OF Davenport and the
other hagrant abuses under the Supervisors law,
as well as In handling the unjust and extTaordi.
nary exercise Of the veto power by Mr Hayes, he
uses plain and strong language, but none too
much so, for the occasion demands plain, home
ly truth, which no man is more capable of utter
ing with force and clearness than Allen G. Thur
man Of ohio.- .-Boston Globe.
Mr.. Hayes regrets to observe that his veto gun
Is calculated to scatter, The last load he aimed
directly OF The Democrats, and he is surprised To
behold his Republican friends lesping about In
the air and bowling with the ierocity of men who
have been hit in the tender place. Mr.. Rogers
will please swab out this valuable weapon and
place II again in position. The Democrats desire
to see 1t used some mOre,-AtdEta COnStitutiOn.

party will be defeated next year. But these fa-
vorite weapons Of the Republicans are not so po.
tent now as formerly. Wholesale falsehoods
used to sell better than they do now. The vul-
lures still flap their wings over the cemeteries
and settle their beaks into the remains OF the
fallen patriots Of the war, but the spirits OF the
dead walk abroad once more as blesst evangels
of uion and peace, But our sectional wIanglers,
Seditious firebrands, place hunting enemies Of
liberty and union ring plunderers and army
contractors are all so many anachronisms at this
day To borrow favoriie figure Of one of our
contemporaries the people will not "set back the
hands" any longer. 1t is too late in the day.

Senator Thurman spoke yesterday in astraght-
forwsrd and forcibe way on the Legislative Ap.
preparation Bill, which is before the Senate with
several riders. His statement of the party posi-.
tion with respect to these questions was particu-
larly strong, but 1t will avail nothing in the final
disposition Of them, and can only serve the pur-
pose Of making platform for the distinguished
Ohio Senator. Occupying the position he does in
the estimation OF large portion of his party he
could not very well refrain from recording his
opinions, but 1t is evident that the President has
been so bound by party thongs that nothing
which the Republican minority sees fit to oppose
as party measure Is likely to meet his approval
The Legislative Bill, however, will 20 to him
with It's riders, after which he will have a chance
to veto those features in separate bills. 1t has
been supposed and freely said all along that he
would approve Of a repeal Of the Jurors test oath
act, which has by Republicans and Democrats
been denounced as unjust and unreasonable but
the party has finally acquired complete control Of
the Executive to the subversion of his better
judgment that this, too, threatens to be made
party question. In that event 1t will meet the
fate Of the Others, for who expects anything bet
ter than simple party action from Mr.. Hayes now
will deceive himself Fhaa, Times
