In another column we have published
q communication relating to the charac-
ser OF the canvass Gen West is making.
and arraig1ipg sundry prominent Dem
ocrats whose names are mentioned for
not meeting him ia Joint discussion.
This censure is undeserved. 1t is known
that Gen. West and the assistant Rad
5cals who have gotten up these meetings,
have refused to divide time with Dem
ocratie speakers, and the correspondence
elsewhere published shows that the
gallant and eloquent Manning asked the
privilege of participating in the discus
sion< and was refused Another Dem
ocrat whose name is mentioned in the
list enumerated by our correspondent,
promptly agreed to join in these discus
sions. but the proposition was declined.
We can emily remark that the course
which is being pursued by these So
called Independent OF Greenback organ
izers ia arraying race against race
in this State, and reyiving the scenes of
violence and animosity of other years,
cannot be too severely reprobated and
will recon with ten-fold fury upon its
authors. The people are quiet, but it
is the quiet which precedes the storm.

The State Board of Health.


This Board met yesterday to take into
consideration the means Of preserving
the public health. No graver duty
ever devolved upon a body of men, and
He are sure they have addressed them
selves ia the work before them with the
'ieliberation and care which the impor-
tanee If the occasion demands The
proceedings of the Board will be found
recorded in another column. The pub
lie owe to the members lasting debt of
gratitude, for their timely efforts to save
our State from a repetition of the terri
6le scenes Of last year. The Board will
perform its duty. The people and the
authorities must not neglect theirs.

These measures are easily enumerated and
they form well defined financial programme.
General Ewing began with a bill for the repeal
of the Resumption act, and he has followed
this With kills-first, To destroy the national
banks and substitute legal tender paper money
for their notes; second, fof tie fee and un-
limited coinage of silver dollars, with the &c.
coinage of trade dollars and, third, for Law
ing graduated income tax. Now, while we
certainly believe Mr.. Ewing To be wrong. we
see here definite, ~coherent. systematic pro-
gramme Of finance. We hope to see Mr.
Ewing explain and defend it before the people
of Ohio, as becomes an honorable public man.
and we hope to see the Republicans oppose
him honestly and fairly. The questions his
nomination has raised are of very great public
Importance, and they cannot properly be
shirked-they must be met
The Democratic policy proposes further
issues OF irredeemable { > greenbacks, the un-
limited coinage OF the present silver dollar,
and the imposition Of an income tax.
Here is the position of the Chic De
mocracy as continued by the New \ ork
Herald, the ablest and most persistent
of all the champions Of the Money
Combination against the people. What

JOHN sHERMAN's STATEMENTS
DENOUNCED.

DENOUNCED.
Mr.. sherman's account of the actual
condition of the South Is so extraordl'
nary in a public officer, part Of the Fed
eral Administration, and bound by his
very position to know the essential hon
esty of his representation, that it calls
for the severest criticism.
AT a time when the crop which is pc
culiarly associated with negro labor is
annually on the increase, beyond the
production OF the palmiest days OF sla'
very, the Secretary Of the Treasury dares
TO sav that "whole communities" at the
South "are slowly deCaying in all the ell,
ements which would tend TO make them
happy and prosperous" Mr.. Boutwell,
himself, looking out of his car window,
would hardly have returned from the
South with such report as that
Mr.. Sherman has not lately been South
except into Kentucky, where ne was very
careful, the other day, not to indulge In
talk like this, or to allege that "a con
trolling minority in some of the South
ern States has reduced the body
of the negroes at the South to a condition
but lutte better than that of slavery"
This language might have passed in the
days when outrages were manufactured
for political effect, but it is ridiculous
now.
Mr.. Sherman asserts that "no Repub-
lican speech, pointing out the errors and
wrongs Of the. laws devised by the rul'
ing class, could be made in these South
ern States without danger of liberty" /"
This is not true; but if it were, we should
like to ask him whether free speech is
likely to be promoted south of Mason
and Dixon's line by reckless and extrav-
agant defamation North of it concern
ing Southern society,-NGtion.

For, to eat too much, is as great an evil
as to drink too much.
